First of all please let me thank all of you who responded to my newbie questions...I really appreciate all of the help and I hope I am not hogging the lists time...
I have installed minicom, ppp, cpp, etc. according to the dependencies Debian told me about... The PPP manual and several others have told me I will need to compile my kernel to use PPP or the Ethernet card I had posted about earlier. What the heck do I need to do this? I have only downloaded cpp from the dev module sections. What else do I need? I don't think I have any source code on the machine as of yet... I thought I remembered having the option for a NE2000 compliant ethernet card and ppp dynamically loading library in the startup when I first installed Debian, but like a fool I didn't choose these since I didn't have anything at the time... Can this be done instead of recompiling the kernel? I posted earlier that I have a 100 MB drive and I was told this was not enought, but currently I don't have the cash flow for more (50 days and counting till I get married and have to pay for a honeymoon :-)...) Can I do this stuff with only 49 MB left, according to the 'df' command? PART 2 Several people told me about the color-ls command and how to type 'eval DIRCOLORS' in the initialization file...Where is this file and what is it called? Once again thanks for y'all's help and for your UNBELIEVEABLE patience! Bill -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
