Yup. Your log-fu will get better with time. > 2) I have to open a Bash window to 'pon' before entering Mozilla and leave > Mozilla to do a 'poff'. Can these be done from within Mozilla? Go check out the PPP howto (or possibly an option in pppconfig) on how to enable on-demand dialing. I would strongly recommend looking into using fetchmail and your local MTA unless you've got some bizarre issues like Mr Lamb does that requires a weird setup like Mozilla's if you're on a dailup. It'll reduce your odds of dailing out when you don't need to. Debian versions of fetchmail and exim will try to fetch mail off remote servers and deliver queued outgoing mail as soon as a PPP connection is established, so being online is pretty irrelevant. Combine it with squid running in offline mode and adzapper, and your web browsing will also become insanely more convienent after initial configuration (no ads, cached objects will always load as fast as your proxy server and ethernet will allow). > 3) Font size of characters in text windows such as Bash, Xterm etc. are too > small. How to adjust them ? For xterm (and most other x-terminal-emulator alternatives) check the x-terminal-emulator manual, there's an X resource to set. > 4) Is there a GUI for the Linux file system such as window-xplorer for > MS-Window? Literally? XPDE (though it hasn't been packaged for Debian AFAIK, I think it probably scares the locals too much... http://www.xpde.com) Most people coming from Windows will find KDE to be a comfortable transition in. - -- .''`.
