GA586 dual pent "2 processors activated" IDE cdrom and hd Matrox millinium 4Mb my monitor is randomly going maginta...but it started doing that with NT. only one OS ...Debian Linux soon to have mathematica installed. X good. emacs good. no real work other than the kernal recompile for SMP. do not have ppp or mail up. I may need some help with this but well see.
I want a complet installl of all the programing tools no matter how off the beaten track however I am not interested in backward compatability. It may be a bit premature to question yall on this but I noticed as I installed perl and python that Lib5 was coming up and conflicting. I chose to avoid Lib5 unless it did not interfier but would like some clarification as to wether or not my thinking is corect ie lib5 is only needed for backward compatibility AND should be avoided to enable the new stuff...though now I cant remember what the conflict was.maby TK ver 6 ...brain dump at 2am any way hope this is helpful to some one I even wrote down the make config params I forgot the X stuf but i think some one out there knows how to help me get it if you need it.
