The card is a KNE2021LC, ISA, made by Kingston. I use the normal NE2000 ISA

Hello people...
I am having a strange problem here with xdm. When I start it it kills the
keyboard (no input possible at keyboards, numlock led is dead, but the mouse
is still working). However, X runs perfectly fine. I first thought it was a
hardware problem, but: I copied my system configuration

Hi,
tar used to accept the -I option to use bzip2 (instead of gzip with -z). Now
the option is still documented in the man page but it no longer works. Why was
the behaviour changed? Is there another letter assigned to bzip2?
Thanks.
