Hi, I'm compiling a kernel using the docs provided at
http://newbiedoc.sourceforge.net/system/kernel-pkg.html and it's all
good but is there a doc somewhere that explains the options in the
kernel configuration better? Especially helpful would be something

Yep, I got that - I just restarted my box but found out later that it was
something in the /tmp directory. Restarting apparently erased it but you
can probably just go clear it out manually.

FWIW I tried catdoc and in my opinion it's not very
good. I just tried it to get some old docs readable
plain text. It works OK and it gets the text out but
for me it sometimes repeated paragraphs and things
like that.

I only ask because they have one on their site @

afraid it will trash my dpkg database or something like that. Does
anyone know of any problems with their .deb?

Right, I use startx and I don't even have an .xinitrc.
I did do a custom .xsession though.

Does icewm-gnome offer anything that icewm doesn't? I
like icewm primarily for it's simplicity and apparent
low resource usage. Is the gnome version just built
using the gnome libraries?

FWIW you might want to check out [EMAIL PROTECTED] (is that
corny or what?). It's actually pretty neat & you can
do _everything_ through a browser. Download options
are MS-Money, Quicken or comma delimited ASCII. Of
course there are a lot of potential reasons not to like
it including being used
like Microsoft but "power corrupts" and
if|when they dominate the Linux market(85%+) things may
change. Maybe I'm still bitter over the whole Geoworks
Ensemble thing ;-).

For me somewhere between downloading the files on an NT system,
burning them to CD over the network on a '95 system and then copying
them to my Debian system the filenames became all caps. I had to
rename all the files to lowercase i.e. GUI00 to gui00 (after they were
gunzipped). Then I tar -xvf

the real benefit of Linux is that it's better, cleaner &
faster. Sure it takes a little or a lot more effort but it's well
worth it. I don't think it will be a big desktop OS for a while
because most people couldn't handle it but it's been viable as a
server for quite some time.

I'm kinda stupid so take what I say with a grain of salt but I think
it is either the file is not set executable or it's not in the path.
For the first do an ls -l on the file and make sure it is executable

For the second type ./filename and see if it works then.
