There is a program out that calls "Kylix" which is like Visual Basic/C++.  
You can find more about it at www.Borland.com.  The open version is due out 
the middle part of this year which would be free to download.  Otherwise you 
can pay $500.00 to $1000.00 for the other kind of version.  I would rather 
wait till the open version comes out.

 I realize that this question might be "anathema" for all Microsoft haters
 out there.  But being I newbie - I get to ask it anyway: is there a way to
 program for Linux using Visual Basic 6?  Or is there a VB6-"like"
 integrated development environment for Linux? If not - what is the closest
 thing?  How can a VB programmer apply his skills in the Linux world?
 Thanks!

Re: [newbie] KDE 2.1 Java: JESSE -- What's that, pleas

I've had the same problem using 1.3.I downloaded the Jdk1.2 and it worked 
better.  the java console comes up with no problem.  there's a JDK1.2 with 
the kde2.1 beta2 for mandrake.  Usually at www.kde.org in the unstable 
directory.

 Dear friends:

 The IBM Java Virtual Machine is working flawlessly, so far, in KDE 2.1's
 Konqueror. As good and as fast as in Netscape 4.76.

 I have one question, for which I believe there is an answer. But, being
 a newbie, I think I bet let an expert comment on this and on whether any
 of us users really need it.

 With the Virtual console on, I get the following message when I launch a
 Java applet:

 Java VM version: 1.3.0
 Java VM vendor:  IBM Corporation
 Unable to load JSSE SSL stream handler, https support not available

 Now I know that Sun has a free JSSE SSL file that is very easy to
 install.

 Question 1: Can one install Sun's Java2 JSSE SSL into IBM's Java 2?

 question 2: What in the world is JSSE SSL. Do us ordinary users that do
 not use servers need it?

 Question 3: If JSSE SSL is worth getting, is there an IBM version of
 this (probably under a different name). I would obviously prefer
 installing the IBM version of JSSE since I am using IBM Java.

 I've looked at the IBM site at:

 http://www7b.boulder.ibm.com/wsdd/wspvtdevkit-info.html

 Unfortunately, I need a little (lots!) of help figuring this out.
 Hopefully, this will also be use of to other members of the list who are
 using IBM's Java.

 Thanks so very much.

 Benjamin

 Please keep the religious masturbation of the list serve. I realize that
 you feel superior in your religious standing, but what you don't realize is
 that none of us care. If you feel the need to preach please join a
 Christian discussion group. Or better yet why don't you go find some
 16-year-old unwed mother to call a sinner, or wait I know why don't go to
 the terminal ward in your local hospital, and inform the patients there
 that if they had lived a life with out sin they would have been much
 healthier. Bottom line is this Kompukit, your statements here are almost
 more inappropriate than that of Julio. At least in his case it was a
 comment made without thought, but you are using this form and members an
 opportunity to spout your religious propaganda. I think that your messages
 are far more reprehensible than Julio's, so please stop.

 this is really ridiculous...

 as for the rest of you...that (it appears) do NOT believe in, nor
 understand God's word...when you stand in front of Jesus...on Judgement
 day,
 and have to give an account of the things said and done in this body of

 and say then: GOD HAVE MERCY...on our stupidity and injustice

 Sure, as root or su, type timetool at a prompt. The timetool app will
 appear. Check if the "24 Hour Time" checkbox is checked. If so, uncheck it
 and select the "Set System Clock" followed by "Exit Time Machine". That
 should do it.
