I know that the commercial suite I work on has put a fair bit of effort

believe).

HI,
I recently installed kernel 2.4.14 on hdb, fixed up a minor LILO problem -
and for a while
it worked. I was impressed with the boot speed and the wwider number of
drivers it had.
Yesterday, however, when I tried to boot up it worked until gdm and I

Hello Again All,
I can see the modem when this occurs. The data light flashes when I

the modem was detected during set-up. The strings are as follows,

Hi list
Recently I have been contracted to replace a Win NT server with a
new server running Debian 2.2 (the clients choice). This is my first
experience with Debian although I have installed plenty of Redhat
and SUSE based servers. I have found the lack of documentation
about how Debian configu

This isn't entirely true - there are drivers available for Conexant HSF
modems
Thanks to all responders, especially Andre Pang. Those simple strings seemed
to work, and this message has been sent using KMail. Thanks again for the
help.

Hey Slugsters,
I'm trying to get large file support into TAR and my ftpd for backup
purposes. I hate it how tar and ftp and every bloody other linux process
doesn't support 2 GB files on 32 bit systems. Being ignorant of this, at one
stage greatly affected my job security :_)

Steve,
Dd is raw device io as apposed to file IO.
Recent ext2&3 drivers have LFS support equal to ReiserFS.
I'm appealing to local debian / Linux users to let me know if debian woody
(November images planetmirror.com) supports LFS without recompiling libc.
If not I have to recompile glibc, what

Maybe I shouldn't comfuzzle people.

Get off the crack - if dd is sourcing from a file, or writing to a
file, that is going through the FS layer and is not "raw device io" at
all.

Oh Crossie your so lovely.
Fond memories of last time you flamed me on the list come rushing back.
I estimated before that Steven Evans was talking about writing to a blovk
device special file.. WHICH IS NOT FILE IO. Dd tends to be used for that a
lot doesn't it?
If you read my most recent post
Oopsies I made a mistake this time :_)
Congratulates :-)
Thanks for keeping me on my tippie toes when it comes to making posts from
now on.

Hey Slugsters & Wu-ftpd list members,
I solved my problem writing to large files with the minimum of fuss.
Instead of hacking my libc6 to make stdio functions 64 bit by default, I
made a small script to patch the latest wu-ftpd source to use 64 bit
functions instead of the normal ones. Hey maybe
