I'd like to see all laptops come with a small Tux sticker besides (or instead!) of the regular "Designed for Windows [ENTER VERSION HERE]" sticker. I believe that we will see the day when installing Linux on a laptop will become less of a black art and more of a choice.

First of all, you'll have to ask Red Hat - I don't think mm_struct.mm_stat exists in vanilla 2.4 or 2.6. Secondly, check Documentation/filesystems/proc.txt, section 1.1. It looks to me that mm_struct.rss and mm_struct.mm_stat.rss are the same, only the former is in kB, and the latter is in pages. This will explain the difference in values. -- Oleg Goldshmidt | [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]

My current Exceed is version 7.0, and it has a small and annoying bug (maybe it is not a bug, but all the technical support at my workplace tried to make it work like it worked until version 6.0, and could not): Several fonts went missing. Even after the fonts were added in the proper place, Exceed no longer recognized them. In particular, Exceed gave emacs non-fixed width fonts, when emacs asked for itallic fixed width. Seems small, but it means that when I commented out code (and used an itallic style for that) the length of the line changed significantly. This resulted in me first abandoning itallic fonts, and soon after abandoning Exceed altogether.

Maybe you had a disk/fs problem? Maybe you still do? Can you try 'fsck -f' your partition from somewhere else (your other partition or rescue floppy/cd)? Can you look at /lost+found on that partition and see if you have there something? Both before and after fsck? In any case, you can find out what package these files belong to in your other partition (with rpm -qf) and install it (maybe with -U, if it thinks you already have it). While I do not recommend to not backup your /usr, I do think it's not that important, and at home I don't. If you do have simple means for that, you can still backup. -- Didi = To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]

You can use rpm -qV with various options to check missing/altered/corrupted/... files. behdad = To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: solved (was Re: lost my X server)
I promised to let the list know how I solved the problem (in case it's ever of some use to someone). After a lot of trial and error, I discovered that /usr/X11R6/lib/modules was an empty directory. I checked on my other installation and found that it should contain hundreds of files. I have no idea what happened to the files, but I copied them all from the other installation and X now works. I only wish I had an idea why these files and /usr/X11R6/bin/XFree86 disappeared. I wonder if anything else is missing :-(. I wrote earlier that I have backups of everything, but that's not 100% true. I always assumed that it wasn't necessary to back-up nearly 4 Mega of /usr since I could always re-install any package from RPMs. But now, I'm not so sure. I did try erasing and re-installing XFree86 and even went to the extreme of updating from MDK91 to MDK92 and still ended up with missing files.
