What happened to the newbie list? I haven't seen a posting for two
weeks, and I have certainly NOT graduated from being a newbie.
Somebody please update me. Thanks.
I remembered about using the "pipe" symbol, and got the man pages
printed. From there, I was able to locate Wine and print the README.
Haven't yet figured out the necessary .config file to make it run,
though. Maybe someday...
What I would really like to obtain (if it exists) is the Linux
Merry Christmas, all:
I THINK I got Wine installed from the RPM CD, but don't know how to
access it, so I tried to print "man wine" by using lpr. Got the reply
"unable to access man. Unable to access wine." So, what is the correct
syntax to print a man page (lpr filename is obviously wrong)?
All Compaq Presarios come with winmodems, but you can verify this by
going to http://forum.Compaq.com, or by inspection. It will be a very
small board with a single Rockwell processor and a 16 MHz xtal.

I'm also using Bootmagic for multiple OS on two hard drives. You need
a small /boot partition at the start of your first drive. When prompted
during the install, put LILO there.
Like many newbies, I have had stubborn problems, which I wound up
"solving" by doing a complete re-install. I have noted some odd
variations in my setups, mostly with KDE and internet access. Sometimes,
I can get my ISP, but Netscape won't work; or just the mail part won't
work. I have been

Could it be a simple oversight? I have that same error message logged in
my "Problems" file from my very first attempt at running Linux. I
learned that (1) I had to use PAP; and (2) my username has some "stuff"
that is invisible to window$ users...that is, I had to log in as
"us,ppp,jmarcom" or
Hello again, Steve;
Bad news first, this time.

I screwed something up, and had to do a complete re-install. Set up a
printer (H-P 6xx on lp0), but when I try to print, using either "lpr"
or by clicking a "print" box in KDE, I get an UNKNOWN PRINTER error.
In command line mode, typing "cat /proc/devices" does not list #6 lp.

My 'board has an ESS1888 integrated...it's equivalent to a winmodem.
I suspect that this is generally true, but I would like to hear from
those who know more than I (almost everyone) :.)
Yes, I can browse the web; as for the mail settings, I used the same
ones that work in window$ (except for having to deal with an error
message, "Netscape is unable to use the mail server because you have
not provided a username". The current problem surfaced as soon as I got
past this.
Good day, all;
I am trying to transition my system from window$ to Linux. Yet another
problem: when I try to open Netscape messenger and get my mail,
Messenger asks for my password, then shuts down Netscape as soon as I
enter it (back to KDE).Help?? I'm running L-M 6.0 w/Communicator 4.6.
Good day, all:
My L-M 6.0 user guide claims that the icons in KDE allow one to mount
and unmount floppys CDs without using the command line. However, I
only get the error message: " KFM error - could not mount mount: you
must specify the file system type." What does it mean by this?
Hello
I'm using a 2240. I used Partition Magic to set up my hard drive; also,
I put the Linux boot partition at the very beginning. Only need ~2 mb,
and label it /boot when making the Linux partitions. Also, I use
Partition Magic as my boot loader to select which OS to start.
