There's a bug in VNC Server that shows up in Linux causing it to refuse connections due to a buffer overflow. Attached is a patch. I can't take credit, though. I found the fix by searching VNC mailing list archives. http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/archives/2000-03/0144.html To use the

Back in the 5.2 days was the last time I was able to get a kernel (zImage) under the alloted 512 k. Your kernel can be really as big as needs be (bzImage). Which brings me to another off topic question...why, in pinstripe ( i don't know about 7.0) does 'loading vmlinuz...' take f o r e v e r?

What's going on? The kernel compiles okay, but this doesn't give me the warm-and-fuzzy... Why does this seem so half-assed? You should be using cc or gcc to compile anything on a redhat system... including the kernel. ___ Redhat-list mailing list

As a matter of fact: rm -R .netscape/cache/* is faster and won't hurt a thing (done it numerous times). It will just recreate all of the directories when first run again. I do the same thing, here. Just make sure the '-i' option (default with RH bash installs) is turned off

You should be using cc or gcc to compile anything on a redhat system... including the kernel. Well, apparently this kgcc is specifically designed to compile the kernel, due to it being a new version, I think? So you're able to compile the kernel using: cpp-2.96-54 kernel-2.2.16-22
