Hi. I'll answer the questions that I know. > 1. Texbin installation failed because Kpathsea could not convert > some Metafont. There was a bug report on this but I could not > find the resolution. This Texbin installation failure also > caused the latex installation to failed.
Add the line /usr/X11R6/lib to the file /etc/ld.so.conf and run ldconfig. > 2. Netscape could not be installed. Do you downloaded the correct version of netscape from ftp://ftp?.netscape.com ? It's the version 3.01. After downloading, put the file in /tmp and try to install it again. > 5. The initial installation did not create /dev/scd0, /dev/scd1 > nor setup the symbolic link of the /dev/cdrom to /dev/scd0. > Nor the /dev/sd[abc..]9 to /dev/sd[abc..]15. I have to create > these manually. Known bugs. They'll be corrected in Debian 1.2.1 > 7. All the X related libraries could not be located when running > and X applications because the /etc/ldconfig.conf (I think > that was the name of the file) did not include /usr/X11R6/lib. > I added the entry in and run ldconfig, then the problem went > away. See answer 1. > 9. BTW, is there a java1.0.2-???.deb out there? Yes. It's in three packages under the "non-free" directory. The files in non-free can't be in CD-ROM, so you'll need to download them from some mirror or the main Debian's ftp site: ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/non-free/binary-i386/ the files are: "jdk-common_<version>.deb", "jdk-shared_<version>.deb" and "jdk-static_<version>.deb". You need the "common" file, and one of the other two. Don't forget to download the file "Packages.gz" too, if you want to see a more complete list of packages in dselect ;) Alexander Gieg =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= By: Alexander Gieg E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] URL: http://www.geocities.com/TimesSquare/3222 IRC: AlexG =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
