update apt about installed X

2001-04-10 Thread Gil Elad
Hi. I downloaded and installed XFree86 4.0.2 on my Potato box from www.xfree86.org, NOT via apt-get. How do I update apt so it won't shout about dependency problems because I supposedly don't have X, when I try to download other packages? Thanks for your input

boot problem after kernel compile

2001-03-22 Thread Gil Elad
system from either kernel. Not even in single-user mode. Unfortunately, I never made a rescue disk with a root partition on it, and have no way of getting one. I've pretty much resigned to the fact that I'm going to have to reinstall, but I would like to know what I did wrong so as not to make the same mistake again in the future. TIA for any advice/information Gil Elad

&B0 means variable, follows connection rate &B1 means fixed serial port rate &B2 means fixed in ARQ mode, variable in non-ARQ mode. I guess the port rate needs to be fixed. Thanks a lot Gil Elad At 16:30 15/03/2001 -0500, you wrote: Gil, I had a very similar problem with my US Robot
