Re: First mail from my Linux

[Jianan Huang]

Hi folks,
I would like to thank those who have replied to this thread and update you 
folks on how the various suggestions have helped.

1) Xwrapper.config has been fixed by reconfiguring xfree86-common. The 
interesting thing is that eventhough I specifed a 'nice' value of -10, the 
xdm log warned that it had been overridden with a value of  0 and 'top' 
showed XFree86 with a 'nice' value of -10.

2) As mentioned in an earlier mail, I am able to set font size and color for 
xterm.

3) Demand dialing works. I have to do a 'pon' manually or through an exising 
command script file.  'poff' is because now dependent on a specified value 
in seconds. What is more user friendly would be as folows: when a webpage is 
requested, the browser first looks into the cache, and fetch it if 
available. If not, a window will pop out to request user to log in to the 
ISP. When done, a small icon will appear to indicate a 'connected' state. 
When this icon is clicked, a window will appear which indicates the baud 
rate, the duration of connection and an option to disconnect. MS-Window user 
will find what I haved siad familiar.

4) As for filesystem GUI, also mentioned in an earlier mail, because of 
memory constraint, I may have to reconsider the packages suggested.

Again, thanks for all the suggestions

Cheers
