[newbie] GLX drivers
Has anyone had any luck getting their riva TNT card to run Mesa apps using the new GLX-Mesa beta driver? I'd like to hear some success stories about this.
Re: [newbie] Logging in as root trough telnet
Yeah, with telnet, anyone with your ip could just snoop your root pass and that'd be the end of it. You can SSH (secure shell) into your comp and log on as root though. try ssh your ip -l username On Mon, 07 Feb 2000, you wrote: Cameron Kerr wrote: Why is it that I can telnet to my box as an unprivilidged user, but not as root? sarcastic mode on ...erm, now let me think about that for a minute. If anyone could telnet iinto your box as root I wonder if that might just pose some kinda security risk? /sarcastic mode off Sorry, but seriously though, it would pose an immense security risk to allow someone to telnet as root.
[newbie] the g++ compiler
Another question. I am currently in a computer science class that uses g++ to compile programs. Now I want to compile some of these programs localy on my computer so I don't have to remotely log into their linux box to do my work. I tried a test program that looked like this #includeiostream.h int main() { cout "This is a test"; return 0; } and when I do g++ test.cc -o test I get this error test.cc:1: iostream.h: No such file or directory What file libraries/rpms am I missing? Obviously, the compiler can't find the iostream.h header file. Thanks in advance. Britt
Re: [newbie] the g++ compiler
I got mine working. On my mandrake 7.0 cd under /Mandrake/RPMS/ the file libstdc++-devel-2.95.2-3mdk.i586.rpm did the trick for me. bsbs On Wed, 02 Feb 2000, you wrote: Hi ! and when I do g++ test.cc -o test I get this error test.cc:1: iostream.h: No such file or directory What file libraries/rpms am I missing?

In Web i have read the normal gcc should have this file ... Greetinx, marc
[newbie] Email programs?
Just out of curiousity, what email programs are you all using? Which do you think are the best and have the most features? I am currently using kmail, the kde mail client, but it seems to lack some of the features I'd like to see in an email client.
Re: [[newbie] Email programs?]
I'm running 1.0.28. There are several functions I find missing. Some of these might just be because I am not using it correctly though. I have a hard time sorting my mails by date. They appear in the wrong order at times. I also have to re-enter my passwords for each of my email accounts when I restart the program. Also, when composing a new message, it would be good to be able to select which account to send it through. See, I have to skip between several email accounts used by my school. Different teachers and departments send mail to different accounts.

Re: [newbie] Gateway Soundcard on MB
Jesus lighten up buddy...I may have made the mistake by saying Eudora and Outlook, cause the majority of the time I currently use Win95, but I think you are gettin WAY to upset over a stupid mistake"Thanks for playing our game!"?

You also realize that alot of us use Linux to READ the mail on this mailing list? What kind of suggestions are Eudora and Outlook? I've search Freshmeat, but near as I can tell, neither of those programs are available for Linux. Thanks for playing our game! /RANT The line wrapping should be set on outgoing messages. Certainly the mail program that the poster was using is capable of setting the line width to something that is reasonable for this mailing list. Most suggestions I've seen have been around 70-75 characters per line.
