I have given up trying to get PHP3 running as a module in Apache 1.3.1 with sybase-ct support on my RedHat 5.1 machine. Apache gives me a segmentation fault upon startup. I believe that glibc is at fault. I'd like to try another distribution instead of going back to RH4.2, which uses libc5. I k

Must have been a pre-release then. The Slackware 3.5 CD has v2.0 and v2.1 directories, and he was about to install the latest 2.1, until I explained that 2.1 series are developmental, so he went to the 2.0 directory and installed the newest one in there, which was a 2.0.35, because I told him it

One of my friends just installed Slackware and had the same problem. He used the 2.0.35 kernel but I'm pretty certain you'll be fine with the 2.0.34. I don't know what kernel the latest bo comes with, but you might want to consider hamm, since upgrading from bo to hamm is a considerable pain but

NCR SCSI - which debian kernel will work

Hi, After spending many hours last night and today searching the net I found a few references to other people having similar problems to me. (The system hangs on my NCR53c875 SCSI controller when I try boot from the rescue disk to try and install debian "bo" 1.3.1. Incidently Caldera works...)
