Hi all:
I just upgraded abiword to abiword-1.0.1-SuSE.jeo.1 on my suse8
machine.There was no problem with the download or intallation of the
rpm. However, after the upgrade, I can only open the application as
root. It crashes immediately when I open it as user, giving a
segmentation error. Would

That could very well be the problem. If so, its RedHat's fault, as all
i've been doing is "rpm --rebuild " and then attempting to
install the resulting RPM.

Lonni,
I've been writing a lot of k-shell scripts lately; to execute and assign the
value of an external "program", you would say, for example:
foo=$(cat foobar)
Which is why I am replying...
the LIST=$(... looks like this - could be some kind of syntax error somewhere
or something. Just t

Hi,
I've tried build 44 and 45 (this is a beta) on my notebook (Compaq
Presario 1200) and it hangs when I insert the network card (3com
X-Jack).
Besides that, it looks very promising as a first distro for an Windoze
ex-user, but not for the power us

Having compiled a downloaded source for 2.4.18, I proceeded to update my
bzImage and System.map files in /boot.
Since I am using GRUB as my bootloader, I went in and created a new enter
for the new 2.4.18 kernel, to try booting with it.

I'm in the process of rebuilding the RH-7.3 SRPMs, and then installing
them. I'm starting to see some very very weird stuff, for failed
dependencies:
CXXFLAGS is needed by libsigc++-devel-1.0.3-5
LIST=$(shell is needed by libsigc++-devel-1.0.3-5
No, neither is a typo , that's exactly how

Good idea Dennis! Here's my thoughts. Sorry for the length.
Well, I started with OL2.3(for a month or so) and went to eD2.4, I'm now
running a modified version of W3.1. There were quite a few things I liked
about eD2.4 and some I didn't, especially after it got very dated. I've
noticed tha
Also, the PCMCIA IDE is a seperate IDE controler (on the PCMCIA card).
So, IDE0 is hda and hdb, IDE1 (usualy swap bays) is hdc and hdd, and the
PCMCIA card will be IDE2 as hde and hdf.
Bert is right, you need to watch your logs for where the device shows up.

Someone really needs to introduce the folks at Netraverse to the amazing
concept of 'patch'. Then they wouldn't need to tell people to start
copying 60MB of source code to their ~ when a simple "patch -R" would fix
any bad voodoo that occured as a result of their screwed up patch sets.

The article below includes an amazing, although long, letter from a
Peruvian government official responding to the local Microsoft rep's
contention that the recent Peruvian government inclination to

It should behave like a scsi disk -- just add a line like
