Hi,
I have tried to upgrade to the libc6 X. All was going alright apart from
some ldso warnigs when I upgraded xlib6, most of which went away when I
installed xlib6-altdev and installed xlib6g and xlib6g-dev. I upgraded
all the other stuff and all seemed fine. Then I tried running X -query

Hmm. I've got a working procmailrc which sends mail from all the debian
lists to ~/mail/debian, which is a pine mail folder. The problem is that
pine expects this:
^A^A^A^A
^A^A^A^A
between each message in a folder, and procmail isn't putting them there.
This means that all 10-15 messages put
On second thought, perhaps I should be asking you to write the installation
instructions and the FAQ. Since you describe yourself as a user, you must
have figured it out :-)

Hi. I am still on an upwards climb on the Linux learning curve.
I just bought an ascend router for ISDN access and my roommate has a Win95
machine that would like access to the internet via PPP as well as my Linux
machine.

I dont understand why the Debian Alpha maintainers want to act as if
Alpha users dont exist. We are constantly ignored when asking for
installation instructions and constantly ignored when making FAQ
suggestions.
Is there a debian package of gcc with the repository mechanism patch from
cygnus? I had a older version of gcc with the patch, 2.7.1. But I've
upgraded to debian 1.2 and this version no longer works. So I need a new

I'm currently trying (and not getting all that far ;-) to get my
internet connection all set up and running. I've managed to log onto
my ISP without much trouble, although I can't remember exactly how,

Hi,
I am trying to build a new kernel after installing a new base system. After
'make config', I get this error message when I try to 'make dep':

Hi all
I'm having a small problem with my Debian bo system, I ran dselect last night
to get the latest
goodies. netstd-2.16-1, netbase-2.16-1, lpr-5.9-20, and diald_0.16.4-7 seem to
be the
packages that were upgraded in the net sub-directory. I am also running
xinetd-2.1.7-3.
