Hi,
I finally got over my signal 11 problems and can now recompile a kernel.
The problems seem to have been due to bad RAM. I reinitialized my
partitions because I was afraid I would run into filesystem problems due to
the numerous times my computer froze when I was trying to recompile a
kernel.

This is the wrong order. Try
make-kpkg clean,
followed by
make xconfig
Ignus> 'make-kpkg
You might have better success it you make your modules using
make-kpkg rather than make-ing in the source directory. Try
executing `make-kpkg --targets' to get a list of targets (which
includes modules).
Caveat - I haven't made modules with make-kpkg myself, so I don't
know what pitfalls might aw

I am still having a lot of trouble! I have no trouble running:
'make xconfig', followed by
'make kpkg-clean',
'make-kpkg -r custom.1.0 kernel_image'
'dpkg -i /usr/src/kernel-image-2.0.30_custom.1.0_i386.deb'
'make modules'
'make modules_install'
to create a custom kernel boot disk. But
those brings up the xdm login
screen for those machines. My linux machine is also on the list but is only
'available'. Selecting it just brings up a message (after a long wait...)
saying it can't open display at . I dunno quite what
the prob. is here...
Thanks again for the help getting me this far,
Martin

Nuts! I'm damn glad that you sent what you sent to the list!
Considering how much space is already wasted on irrelevant
flame wars on who's in charge of what and in what manner,
it's refreshing to see useful, detailed information about
real code and what's going on in NT.

Hi!
If I remember correctly, you said you installed magicfilter. So delete or
rename your printcap file and run /usr/sbin/magicfilterconfig as root, to
create a new /etc/printcap file. I think magicfilterconfig copies a filter
into your /usr/sbin directory, so all you have to do is tweak i

Debians,
just a quick apology for sending my question about Wave twice. The
first I sent went through my Windows NT mail server at work. The
server is usually 90% of the times down, and even local mail arrived
2 days late.
My second request went through my Linux provider and

Thanks, Bob! I guess I should have kept going with fdisk instead of
wimping out. I probably would have gone down that path eventually.
I asked two of my friends familiar with this (both Debian users, in
fact) and both of them answered with "I don't remember exactly how that

this group, and now everything is hunky-dory.

Just a quick note of thanks to all who replied about the Debian cron
setup. I was thrilled with the response and it's greatly appreciated.
Rather than summarize, I'll just say that if anyone has any questions
about the cron setup that Debian uses please do not hesitate to mail
Thanks to all of you who helped me on that problem.
Now everythings works fine except pari but I think that now I'll be able to
cope with it.
I have to apologize because as one of you pointed out to me there was a FAQ
answering to the most part of my problem.

Seems like the phoneline will be busy tonight,
many thanks to all the suggestions that I got for setting up
authentification for news.
I solvered the problem in the short term by writing a quick and nasty
version of suck in python that would handle authentificaton and this
seems to work well for the moment.
Amny thanks
