Hey, folks!
I finally have a project in the wings that may actually pay $$$ for
me to deploy a real live debian based solution... that would be cool in many
ways and it would mean that I could finally have a debian environment on my
desktop with some hope of having time to

OK,
I cannot believe that after HOW MANY years of development, X windows is
still such a completely inconsistent and painful user interface.

Actually-- I thought it was appropriate for the devel list since it may
affect future development of debian at the user interface level.
Regardless, my followup is to debian-user only.
There is no inter-application communication or awareness to speak of.

Jim asked about GnuStep; Well-- a complete set of GnuStep packages have been
built by Karl Sackett and are awaiting my work on gcc [an attempt to fix a
crasher in the optimizer that causes the base GnuStep library to NOT be built
with optimization-- UGH!] before release.
Now that I have an

I'm having absolutely no luck building a working multicast routing
capable kernel with the eepro100.c driver. The driver works beautifully in
a 'normal' kernel (in both cases, I'm actually dynamically loading the
eepro100 module at boot).
The machine boots fine;
Yet another problem with libc5.4.7-- but only if we back out to the
previous stable version.
Specifically; the latest cpp and gcc packages [the ones on which I based
my objc-compatible gcc/cpp packages] REQUIRE libc5.4.7. So, backing out on
5.4.7 will likely require backing out to gcc
Before we decide to either standardize on some particular package or roll
our own package, please PLEASE PLEASE look at Netinfo.
Netinfo is amazing. I commonly work with a WAN that includes machines [all
running Netinfo] in 10 cities with a four level Netinfo hierarchy. I can

Does anyone have multi-cast working under Debian linux? I tried building a
kernel with multicast enabled [including tunneling/routing] but subsequent
rebooting of the machine rendered the ethernet interface completely
inoperative.
I'm using an Intel EtherExpress Pro/100 card... but could
I have made gcc 2.7.2.1 with objc multithreading support (snapshot 960906)
available via:

It is a debianized package; ie-- it is designed to be installed under Debian
linux. The '-2' is simply
I'd be happy to renumber it to whatever is acceptable to the community--
suggestions, anyone?
Does the gcc_2.7.2.1-2 package in incoming have the obj-c patches?

I have had no problems with Donald Beckers [sp.] eepro100.c driver built
against the 2.0.18 sources. As well, I have also used a couple of different
Tulip based cards; the Cogent EM960 (which, btw, causes the system to lock up
under heavy load) and the SMC 21041 based card.

After a kind pointer from Guy Maor, the gcc package is noow renumbered to
more closely follow the dpkg release policy for a third party maintainer.
I also compiled gdb_4.16 with the Objective-C support patches from NeXT.
As well, it appears that the _MIT_POSIX_THREADS included in debian work
I'm still looking for a driver for the Intel EtherExpress Pro/10+. As I have a
Cogent EM960 that LIMPS along [frequently locking up the system under heavy
load], I am quite willing to cobble together a driver-- but know next to

First, thanks to all who assisted me with the Tulip+2940 kernel-- as it
turns out, debian 1.1 ships with the tulip driver as a dynamically loadable

problem!!! [though, tulip didn't work for me-- i had to use the

I'm in need of a debian kernel compiled with the 21040 ethernet driver.
While being familiar with the overall installation and
