Hmmm I just grabed
the tar ball from netscape ... and (amazingly) it worked without a hitch. (my
system is a slink with vincent's upgrades)
I haven't gotten M14 to work on my box either, the main problem you'll run
into if you're running slink is that M14 need a newer version of some of the
libc files... so with out upgrading those I'm not sure it can be made to run...
(though I'd love to have someone contradict me) I can help yo
If what you mean is it possible to back up a machine running slink to a
machine running netware 4.11 it should be possible... that being said I've never
done it... but hey ;) I have however set up a slink machine to show up on
a netware network as a bindery(netware 3.x) server. See the IPX h
one word of caution... make sure you install lilo to /dev/hda not /dev/hda1
hda refers to the MBR, and hda1 refers to the PBR (partition boot record)
which is where windows keeps it's loader. If you install to hda1... windows will
die a tragic silent death...

I remember seeing this sort of problem before... I'm sorry I don't remember the
specifics, but the solution was to upgrade the ppp software.

These symptoms are typical Netscape behavior. almost everyone coplains of this

As far as I know, they shipped slink r3 so if your video card is not supported
in the standard slink distro, you might consider visiting

There are two ways (at least) to do this, if you have a fast connection 1
megabit orfaster, you can just download the base floppies, and install those,
they will launch a program called apt-get which will grab and configure the
files you need. alternate ly, if if you are on a slower connection,
There is a lot of work being done in this area, but at this time I don't know
of any "finished" systems. Check out http://www.linuxce.org/ for more info.
For the project you have in mind though, I think a symbol scanner might be the
best bet. basicaly is a palm III with a built in barcode reader

I had a similar problem with font corruption/dissapearance. A quick trip to the
SiS website (www.sis.com.tw) got me their version of XF86_SVGA which displays
fonts beautifully but may not play well with the debian distro of xfree86 3.3.5

Here's my sad story.
To start, I have the worst video card ever... It's based on SiS 530 chipset.
It's built on to the mother board oad uses 8 megs of system memory for
graphics, of course it uses the first 8 megs, so any calls to memory have to be
routed around the graphics, which is slooo
Could be noise on the phone line, though there's not too much to be done about
it. If stability is your main concern you could connect at a lower speed

phone) you can call your phone company. I'd recommend against that o
Sounds like a winmodem :(
but it might not be, 28.8 winmodems were kinda rare, if you go into win95 and
get the results of the ATI comands from the modem control pannel I could tell
you for sure.

Owch... looks like you have a win-modem. In order to save on hardware costs a
lot of modem manufacturers off load the data compression onto the cpu rather
than including special hardware for the tasks. the problem is that this sort of
