Re: Modem info needed...???
Hi Larry, I'm owner of Pavilion 8550 with the same crap as you. I also took off that "board" with any unpleasant result. The Rockwell is also a soundcard which is pretty uncompatible with SoundBlaster, which was another reason to remove it and leave it waiting for better days... So the CD-ROM connection is just for playing audio CDs. As far as I remember, there is also a cable that goes to a TV cable (more or less). No problem at all if you remove it. I connected a vulgar US Robotics to a COM there and connected without trouble to the 'net. Larry... Seizing this... If you ever find a page where appear the motherboard models of each Pavilion, please tell me.

POP3 Support (OPTIONAL) If Mutt was compiled with POP3 support (by running the configure script with the --enable-pop flag), it has the ability to fetch your mail from a remote server for local browsing. When you invoke the fetch-mail function (default: G), Mutt attempts to connect to ``pop_host'' and authenticate by logging in as ``pop_user''. After the connection is established, you will be prompted for your password on the remote system. Once you have been authenticated, Mutt will fetch all your new mail and place it in the local ``spoolfile''. After this point, Mutt runs exactly as if the mail had always been local. Note: The POP3 support is there only for convenience, and it's rather limited. If you need more functionality you should consider using a specialized program, such as fetchmail Please don't think I'm using RTFM, because I know the Mutt manual is so huge that some issues can be easily missed out.

Re: coping with a high-volume mailing list (like this one)?
I won't say much more that has been said before (actually I wouldn't be able to say halfof the comments said, he). But, as an ex-Eudora Light user I'll tell you something that perhaps you'll appreciate a lot. When emptying the trash (200 messages per day, to say the least) the differences are the following: Eudora: the disk drive song (seven seconds on a PIII?) Mutt: a SNAP. Man man man. I still feel quite awkward with Mutt, but I think I'm starting a love affair with this program. On the other hand, I answer the questions I can. As a newbie, there are not much, so no trouble at this time. I delete more than 95% of messages. I keep only the interesting messages that I know they would be quite difficult to find using standard searching techniques. I use a lot search engines for this list. I go to http://geocrawler.com to do basic search about debian-user. If the thread is enough interesting to follow, I follow it copying year, month and day in http://lists.debian.org (The reason why I use geocrawler instead of the lists.debian search engine is because I'm too lazy to learn how it works :) Best, Ignasi _ Do You Yahoo!?

Mail deleted locally -> deleted on the server?

Re: Mail deleted locally -> deleted on the server?
> That's be fetchmail's default. If it's not doing it, then check your > configuration (options like 'flush', 'keep' and 'nokeep' affect these > things). See man fetchmail for the nitty gritty. Thanks for your answer, but perhaps I've not done the question with much accuracy. I know that fetchmail options. Actually in my .fetchmailrc I put the 'keep' option. But, as an example for my situation: I download the mail. The mail is kept with the 'keep' option. I read it with mutt and I decide to delete one of that emails and keep the others. If I was using Netscape Messenger or Eudora Light, for example, the next time I downloaded mail that letter would be also deleted in the server, and the others would be kept. I would like this behaviour, as I also access Yahoo with the browser. If it's RTFM again, please forgive me. I can't figure how the mutt and fetchmail can communicatein this way. Best, Ignasi P.S.

Kernel config questions: SCSI, Tux and letters
Hello list, I have a SCSI card Symbios Logic 53c400. Searching list archives I read that the kernel option for my card was the NCR 5380. But if I look the kernel options in SCSI low-level drivers I find the following options: NCR53c7,8xx SCSI support NCR53C8XX SCSI support and a final SYM53C8XX SCSI support What one should I choose? The symbios 53c416 no, isn't it? And another pair of questions. When loading the default Debian kernel, Tux appears with a beer. I know that this is done with a pair of kernel options. I'd like to keep it, but there is something strange with that graphic. In a particular moment of kernel boot, Tux's colours get totally psychodelic. This has happened with an S3 Virge, with a NVIDIA TNT and with a Cirrus Logic ISA card. Can I solve this? Is there an explanation? What option should I add in order to get smaller letters in the console while booting and in bash? It's in "console drivers" option? What option? Sorry, but I didn't understood much the help. Thank you for your help. These are the only affairs I had with kernel config before compiling and installing it. Ignasi _ Do You Yahoo!? Get your free @yahoo.com address at http://mail.yahoo.com
Fetchmail skips messages that Netscape Messenger does not

I've tried to download the mail with Netscape Messenger, and it behaves correctly. In my .fetchmailrc I have the option 'keep'. Fetchmail still runs correctly on the other POP account I have, with 'flush' and 'expunge 5' options.

Re: Why choose Debian?
I hate Windows (1995-now) so I start to get interested in Linux. (1997) but I don't have the adequate attitude/knowledge (1998. Debian 2.0 install ok but problems with Winblows, still needed at the time). I keep on trying (1999. RedHat, but flakey electrical installation make lots of kernel panics. W9X simply crashes a lot). I solve the electricity issue. Corel stinks (2000) I go to a basic course of Linux (I learn Slackware). I return to home, and I think about what distro do I choose. I am Catalan, and Mandrake is the best Catalanised distro. Here we have to defend our language _every day_. But I think and think and I decide Debian is the only solution for me and to work for: freedom. I agree 100% on the main/contrib/non-free model. Frankly speaking if Debian was not the technically best Linux distro in the world, I wouldn't care and I'd continue with it, only for the political reasons. Debian can be Catalanised, but I don't think Mandrake can transform in a non-profit organisation. About the technical reasons, I like Debian because -Very flexible: from 386 to PI. -Stable. 0 undocumented crashes. -Honesty (unstable/stable branches) -A thing that I hate and it's very common today it's that you can get your work done easily but loosing flexibility. But because the program is bad made, if you run into a problem... Good luck! Of course, Debian is 'harder, but safer'. The ocasionally really easy stuff like pppconfig works... And no more headaches. -debian lists. debian-user is my #1 solution provider (by reading archives 90% of the times). Sure I miss something, but... Hope it's interesting, Ignasi P.S.
