If u find yourself having to download again after u have downloaded abt
99.9% adn the line gets cut off (we all know how it feels)..u can try
using wget (if u know the url)...if i am not wrong wget comes with the

venus/rh6...wget
Somewhat off subject, but I am wondering why every e-mail from you is sent
as high priority? I'm sure everyone else here feels the same about their
questions, but it is annoying if I expect an urgent tag to be a personal
e-mail and it turns out to be from this group. Could you please send your

also I tried to ping a few sites and it says that it sent out but recieved
nothing 100% loss, which means I guess that nothing is getting in or out

I setup 6.0 from the Linux Mall CD's and it went Fine. I upgraded from 5.3 on
my work computer and clean installed my home one. I think you should stick with
the Linux Mall and get the CD's from there. That is where I get all of mine. I
noticed that many people have had problems with LSL and C

I finally have venus 6.0 to dial out to the internet and stay connected, the
only problem that I have now is when I run netscape or lynx or any K desktop
window it will NOT connect to any site!!!
as If I am not connected, like the browser is not finding the internet, it

I downloaded all files in /private.
What shall I do now to install this rpm ?
can I just copy them to a distributive disk?
It's the only way I can install them because I can't boot.
Am I right? Is there any other way to install them?
I will be very grateful to you
