The maintainer of the archive is returning from vacation today. For some
unknown reason, the web pages stopped being updated just before he left
(although the archives are functioning properly).
Expect them to be fixed within the next few days.

I got ahold of the maintainer of www.debian.org and he promised that
the mirror would be updated at it's usual mirror time tonight.

The problem is that www.debian.org hasn't updated its mirror in about a week.
I have already sent mail to the administrator. In the meantime, check
some of the other mirrors shown on www.debian.org. I know the mirrors in
Germany, Japan and the Netherlands(New!) are up to date.

Some of the other mirrors are way behind in mirroring and I am working
on getting the contact names so I can contact them also.
www.il.debian.org is having name resolution problems and should (hopefully)
be back up soon.

Re: PPP with a dynamic address?

Check out /usr/doc/HOWTO/mini/Dynamic-IP-Hacks.gz. It is well written and
quite easy to follow.

mirroring web pages

1997-06-16 Thread sacampbe
I know how to mirror using ftp. Does anyone know of a free program for
mirroring web pages when there is no access by ftp?

This was a problem with an earlier version, but was fixed (I thought).
I don't remember which files had wrong permissions, but here
are the perms on the relevant files in /var/lib/games/nethack:

-rw-rw-r--   1 root games   0 May 27 03:02 perm
-rw-rw-r--   1 root games 217 Jun  4 11:04 record
drwxrwxr-x   2 root games1024 Jun  4 11:05 save/

and

drwxrwxr-x   3 root games1024 Jun  4 11:05 /var/lib/games/nethack/

I hope this helps.

getting the screen to suspend/turn off: the sage continues

1997-04-01 Thread sacampbe
I wrote a week or so ago about getting the screen to suspend/turn off.
Many replies (correctly) said to use 'Option "power_saver"' in XF86Config.
Within 5 minutes, I had it working. The problem is, I haven't been
able to get it to work since! The one thing different from many that
posted is that with my system I have to use 'xset s noblank' to even
get the screensaver to kick in (otherwise only the cursor disappears).
Also, the screensaver won't work if 'xset s noexpose' is used.
Using SuspendTime and OffTime don't make a difference. There aren't
any other options to play with. Has anyone else had problems like this?

The system uses an ATI Mach64 CT if that matters.

- Sue

P.S. Just to head this one off, there have been no other screensavers active
since the last reboot.

power saving monitor

1997-03-26 Thread sacampbe
I have a 'green' monitor. Since I leave my computer on for long periods
I'd love it if it could be put into power saving mode after a certain
length of time. I seem to recall reading that this is possible, but
can't remember where and can't find the source again. Any pointers?
