Re: [newbie] Sylpheed messages not readable in MS Outlook?

2004-05-24 Thread Thujan

Asa Rossoff kirjoitti viestissään (lähetysaika tiistai, 25. toukokuuta 2004 
06:18):
 I often read this list in Outlook Express, since I still spend more time in
 Windows (haven't gotten Linux to work well with my video card, so until I
 upgrade...), and noticed that some messages appear blank, but have an
 attachment that outlook has named ATT00###.py (where ### is a number).

 The first time I saw this, I thought it was a worm of some sort
 distributing Python scripts, but when I looked at that attachment it
 contained the body of the message.

 In each case, the headers revealed that the mailer used was Sylpheed.
 (Example message, today, from Charles A. Edwards re. Intellimouse).

 I also noticed his message had the following Mime header:
 :: Mime-Version: 1.0
 :: Content-Type: multipart/signed; protocol=application/pgp-signature;
 ::  micalg=pgp-sha1;
 ::  boundary=Signature=_Mon__24_May_2004_22_28_18_-0400_EG0sF5HbG3/RPIn1

 Anyway, I thought this might be of interest, since Outlook is such a
 popular mailer, and it's probably desirable to have messages readable
 there.

 Any ideas what's causing this? (The short answer is probably Microsoft's
 broken mailer, but...)

 :)

 Asa

That is intresting matter why outlook respond gpg-mime signature also with
other clients than sylpheed, at least mutt with gpg-mime and balsa with 
gpg-mime and evolution with gpg-mime does that.
Older outlooks also respond with the word beginspacespace
I haven't heard why these features are in outlook?
I don't believe it is cause its broken they have some another purpose for
that behaving, just don't know what?
Is it cause outlook can run scripts so well or what?

[newbie] mkbootdisk to usb zip and cd

2004-05-14 Thread Thujan

Hi,

I discovered that #mkbootdisk doesn't fit on floppy
no more, because 1.44mb isn't enough space .
How do I make bootimage to usb zip or/and cd-r?
In cd it had to be iso-image doesn't it?
But what about in usb zib, I mean pen drive.

Thank you,

  Thank you,

  'mkrescue --iso'

(from 'man mkrescue', should be provided by lilo)

  --iso  Create an ISO-9660 bootable CD image (El Torito
 Format) suitable for  burning  to  a  CD-R  or CD-RW.  The
 --device specification defaults to the filename rescue.iso, and
 the  --size  defaults to 2880.  A utility such as cdrecord may be
 used to burn the ISO file to a recordable CD medium.

I dunno if this image would also be suitable on a zip drive,
 but you can always just try it.

Thank you Tom :-)
That did it and I all ready tried three dayz this mkbootdisk with
diffrent parameters, and it didn't work.
But #mkrescue did it, thanks again!

Thank you, this seems to work, I send few messages allready :-)
And list of supported phones are impressive too.
Little bit cryptic to use but must read documentation.

Actually, it is not that hard. If you've found a good, up to date
mirror, you can do it along these lines :

Open a terminal, become root and type :
urpmi.addmedia main here you can copy paste the URL of the ftp
server from i.e. a browsers address field, when you are in the
correct directory.
Then go back to the browser, go up parent directories until you are
in the base directory. Notice how many times you have to go up.
Now, be sure to find a file in the base directory called hdlist.cz.
Go back to your root command line, and append to your previous
line : with ../../../base/hdlist.cz (where the ../ represents one
directory up).
Finally, run the command. Repeat those steps for every source, i.e.
contrib, updates and so on.

HTH
Kaj Haulrich.

Thank you. I managed to add:
urpmi.addmedia main
ftp://ftp.some-server.com/pub/Linux/distributions/mandrakelinux/official/10.0/i586/Mandrake/RPMS

with ../base/hdlist.cz

urpmi.addmedia contrib
ftp://ftp.some-server.com/pub/Linux/distributions/mandrakelinux/official/10.0/contrib/i586/

with ../../i586/Mandrake/base/hdlist2.cz

But media updates:
still missing, is there some diffrence to add updates?
And also something strange behaviour urpmi calculate depencies twice when
I say: # urpmi.update -a
But it works and I can install packages, only updates doesn't work.

[newbie] updates

2004-04-16 Thread Thujan

Hi,

I just installed mdk10.0 C and I can't get updates?
Ain't 10.0C supported any more?
I tried several mirrors so it couldn't be one
particular mirror problem.
Is this cause of official 10.0 release?
Can one download official 10.0 somewhere?

Thanks
