[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

2000-02-07 Thread Britt Selvitelle

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

 ...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?

 Sorry, but seriously though, it would pose an immense security risk to
 allow someone to telnet as root.



[newbie] the g++ compiler

2000-02-02 Thread Britt Selvitelle

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.

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.

 I am just at this moment on the same problem ... Does anyone know
 where to find this iostream.h ? In Web i have read the normal gcc should
 have this file ...

[newbie] Email programs?

2000-02-02 Thread Britt Selvitelle

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?]

2000-02-02 Thread Britt Selvitelle

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.

  Cool, thanks
 
  BTW, your problem with the messages comming out as one long string is
not
  the typers fault (they shouldn't have to hit enter in the middle of
  sentences), but the fault of your email program?  Which program are you
  using?  I'd recommend Eudora or Outlook...

 WTF?!  You _DO_ realize that this is a LINUX mailing list, correct?  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.

 Please remember that a large number of us use text-mode mail readers and
 be considerate when sending mail.
