Hi,
Since there was some interest in Ximian Evolution in this mailing, I think
the official announcement of 1.0 is relevant.
The press release

Of course, if you don't need a GUI calculator, 'bc' should always be
available from the shell prompt ('bc -l' for floating point calculations,
'man bc' for the gory details).

Hi,
You can put another version of glibc in another directory and set the
LD_LIBRARY_PATH to include it in the script that starts cmap.
see 'man ld.so' for more details.

Hi Oscar,
Haven't had time to install this on my machine, but I note that the javacore
file refers to the 1.1.8 jre.
This version is a bit old - the current stable version is, I beleive, 1.3.1.
Perhaps there's another version of the jre floating around your 8.1
installation, and cmap is trying

First, congrats on finding the problem.
Actually, it sounds like a programmer made an implicit assumption on the

Hm,
After successfully installing, I had some problems running soffice due to
overly restrictive security settings. Perhaps your installation problems are
due to something similar? Do you have enough free disk space? Perhaps you're
running quota and hit your limit? Have you tried as root?

Hi,
Do you mean that you want to change your login shell?
If so, 'chsh' is the command you need.
From the man page:
NAME
chsh - change your login shell
SYNOPSIS
chsh [ -s shell ] [ -l ] [ -u ] [ -v ] [ username ]
DESCRIPTION
chsh is used to change your login shell.
Sounds odd.

Hi,
The FTP server does a 'chroot' to the default FTP directory, for security
reasons. The idea is not to let an ftp client roam over your entire disk.
'chroot' changes the root directory of the process, so that anything out of
the /home/ftp is effectively invisible.
