Please, please, tell me how to get Netscape going when it complains: "locale C not supported" and about the "$XNLSPATH" not being sufficient to find the config files. and/or "the gimp: error in loading.../usr/lib/libgdk.so.1...undefined symbol: XListInputDevices" ...got any ideas?

Such things are no longer complicated when brought to light, are they? The many questions can be condensed into few questions, virtually. Should "free" software developers write code in harmony, withholding "new features" long enough for a release every now and then so that many others will use it? Or should eternal patience reign since they aren't getting paid money for it, and gee, *NIX- like systems are so "intriguing" when they remain too difficult for the common consumer to use, anyway (sarcasm on my part)?

GIMP Problem in hamm
When I enter "gimp" as a command in afterstep (in hamm), I receive only the following: - gimp: error in loading shared libraries /usr/lib/libgdk.so.1: undefined symbol: XListInputDevices - The command, BTW, was entered in an XTerm with no keybinding peculiarities. ...good job from the developers with keybindings, BTW. :-) Art Lemasters -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

I would try another distribution, but once in a while, I like to take a break from accessing Web sites that are cluttered with ads, and e-mail lists that are flaming with complaints as some of the others are.

hamm, Netscape, libXt.so.6???
I just upgraded to hamm, and Netscape will not run, because it cannot find libXt.so.6. Which lib in hamm provides this? Thanks. Art Lemasters -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: HELP: Newbie needs help with crash
Go ahead, and run e2fsck, but read the man page first! I don't guarantee anything for you here (disclaimer) and am not a LINUX expert, but it did work for me when I received similar error messages. Read those man pages. If you can't do so on your Debian LINUX OS, the man pages are on the Web, too, if you have access to another OS. Actually, I must admit, though, that I proceeded with e2fsck without reading the man at the time, although I wouldn't suggest doing so in reaction to _any problem_ for anyone else. :-) _Art [Charset ISO-8859-1 unsupported, filtering to ASCII...] > My computer just seized up (cursor frose; ctrl-alt bksp and ctrl-alt del > did nothing).

And your local user name should be same as what you want as a user name in your e-mail return address (in your case, "lee.bradshaw") until we find a solution for sending from any local (local to your machine) account. I'm going to try one more tiny change with Daniel's (hope he doesn't mind) script and get back to you. When we have a complete solution for these kind of accounts (typical dynamic IP PPP's), what say we collaborate to put a good tutorial on a Web page? ;-) Then those who have the know-how can properly format the info for Debian LINUX documentation (or we can learn).

Re: Smail Solution for Dynamic IP's
To clarify something from my last message in regards to the subject (subject this message, also) at hand, my _machine name_ is "alemas." "ipa.net" is my ISP's domain. Therefore, my full domain name on this machine is "alemas.ipa.net". My numerical domain address (e.g., ###.###.###.###) is a different number--only borrowed from my ISP--each time I log on; it is "dynamic." Correct me on terms or otherwise, if need be, and thank you.

Smail Solution for Dynamic IP's
Daniel offered a solution that seems to me to work very (bo used on this box, so check it) well, except that I changed the "smtp-rewrite" in the /etc/smail/routers file to match what it calls in the /etc/smail/transports file ("smtp-remap"). I think I typed both in as "smtp-rewrite". I use elm-me+ and fetchmail (for POP downloads), by the way. Also, I think it is important to go to the /etc/smail/config file and make sure your ISP's domain name (not your full machine name) appears thusly: visible_name=ipa.net<(mine used as an example here) -domains hostnames=alemas.ipa.net <--(not sure about this line.
