Re: What SCSI should I buy?

1998-03-12 Thread ' ALLAN W. BART
hi,

I have bought the advansys cards and i must say that they are excellent in
terms of value for money, support, and features. you can also get them at
a growing number of places on the web. on the diamond unit, it is my
understanding they only support win 95 and nt.




regards,

allan

Linux On NPR

1998-04-09 Thread ' ALLAN W. BART
hi,

I was listening to my local public radio station on wednesday and there
was this 5 minute long program about linux. it was expansive, went into
the whys of linux, even had a small interview with linus. so heads up it
looks as if linux may be the the only viable alternative to microsoft
domination.

Debia 2 what does give us?

1998-04-12 Thread ' ALLAN W. BART

Hi,

i was just in  j&r in new york city and you should see all of the linux cd
sets, i see that they even haven  have debian book sets. i wanted to ask
if anyone here has used applixware or smartware on their linux based
systems? how do you make the software compatible with debian- seems that
they are using rpm as the packaging system.

thanks,

allan bart

Debian 2, What will it Have

1998-04-13 Thread ' ALLAN W. BART
hi,

i must say that debian has come a long way in the last two years- in fact
so has linux. it has gotten to the point that linux is now being taken
very seriously by corporate america. 
one thing that i have noticed after my latest visit to j&r is that there
is a great variety of linux distributions available, now i am starting to
see the suse one, good book comes with it. 
i did have a question about Xfree, it is my understanding that x will not
be free after a new version?

Herculers graphics on debian?

1996-06-16 Thread ' ALLAN W. BART

hello,

thanks for the assitance folks, i think this should be more fun than 
reading all of the cue and sams guides-btw, i kind of get the feeling 
that most of the commerical linux books are a rip-off?

so here is the question, can i use hercules monochrome grahics in the 
text mode on debian, this is to be on my old 386, which has this mode, my 
compaq persario has svga, and any ideas on how to efficiently use both of 
these sytems together would be appreciated. the compaq has a relatively 
small disk and besides i need to put the old northgate to work and 
running linux is a reeducation project.

yours,

allan
