Hello
I'm using an SMC card (EtherPower I think) with the DEC chip, and

Run "Runme" in X -- it works better there. try using the 'file' command
on your download. See what it says: file tarball.tar.gz SHOULD say

Hi all,
I have Linux (debian) box in a LAN dominated by m$ NT servers. All internet

Is there a way to hook up the linux system to that proxy (TERRA;

I want to set up a graphic design workstation under Linux, running the
Gimp. I want to use a graphics tablet, and a flatbed scanner.

(Can anyone recommend what NOT to get?)
Thanks
