Citrix client + Netscape/Libraries
Hi All I am trying to get citrix installed but when I do I says i don't have netscape installed. So then I download netscape and try and get that installed but then get told that libstdc++-libc6.1-1 are not installed. I can only find older version of these libraries which don't seem to work. 1). Is there anyway I can get citrix to install using Mozilla as a browser, 2). Where can I find updated libstdc++-libc6.1-1?

Eterm Functionality
Hi again Running 2.2r3. Having hassles with Eterm. Normally use Aterm. I see each time Eterm opens up it has a different background pic to it. How can I disable this, is their an extra string I need to put with it? Another thing I noticed, If I use xterm, aterm or whatever and I ssh to another machine and then try vi a file I get this error: vi: No terminal database found. So how is debians Eterm different in that it can ssh to another machine and use vi etc. Is it built with something extra? I happy to use Eterm, just curious as to how it operates?

Installation Problems
Hi, just tried to in stall debian for the first time. I downloaded everything on to two small hard drives (no cdrom ). I have made my rescue.bin and root.bin an d it goes into installation fine, all goes well from choosing the keyboard to pa rtion the hard disk but when it's time to install it asks for three different lo cations ie floppy/cdrom or hard drive. On hdc1 i have all the dir's containing t he extras (net/comms/x11 etc). On hdd1 I have everything else ie base.tgz, drive rs.tgz, rescue.bin etc. It asks for the path to rescue.bin and drivers.tgz and w hen i point it to the correct place it tells me to get "lost". I have mounted bo th hdd1 and hdc1 to /target/mnt/hd* and also /mnt/hd* and it still doe snot work . I can't use floppies because to untar all that stuff onto disks from drivers.t gz is a mission. How else can I get the installation going. I have also created the path /dists/potato/main/disks-i386/current/images-1.44/ and copied rescue.bi n here, but this does not seem to help. I'm obviously doing something VERY WRONG but I don't know what (probably because I come from a redhat background). How c an I get the installation going?

CD Image creation
Hi All I am battling creating my cd image. I have done my : make-pseudo-image That went fine, however when i run: rsync --verbose --progress --stats --block-size=8192 server.somewhere.org::debian-cd/2.1/i386/binary-i386-1.iso . I run into trouble. The actual command I run is : rsync -v --progress -B=8192 www.uk.debian.org::debian-cd/cd-images/2.2_rev3/i386/binary-i386-1.iso . I get an error : link_stat /cd-images/2.2_rev3/i386/binary-i386-1.iso : No such file or directory client: nothing to do Does this mean I am putting in the wrong path to binary-i386-1.iso, should this be pointed to the one on my machine that I have just created?

Printing problems
Hi Having trouble printing.

apt-get mutt ?????
Hi All I have been struggling to get mutt installed on my 2.2r3 poptato system. When I run apt-get install mutt it works fine however when I go into it the cursor just flashes and nothing else works. I then read somewhere that the followingf needs to be installed: ncurses and slang A normal apt-get on either of these did not work so I then downloaded the tar.gz and ran it like that. Both installed no problem. I need mutt with ssl support so I tried to do an apt-get openssl which worked fine. Here is where the problem came in. Because mutt did not function after apt-get install mutt I donwloaded the latest mutt-1.3.26i.tar.gz. Then I ran the following ./configure --enable-pop --enable-imap --with-ssl, and I got this error: checking for X509_new in -lcrypto... no configure: error: Unable to find SSL library I then donwloaded the latest openssl, the install went fine but still the same error checking for X509_new in -lcrypto... no configure: error: Unable to find SSL library whether I point it to the relevant directories or just leave it as --with-ssl. I have managed to sort out mutt itself now, seems to be running fine however I don't think it has the ssl support. I have tried to run apt-get install openssl-dev but then I get this error: apt-get install openssl-dev Reading Package Lists... Done Building Dependency Tree... Done E: Couldn't find package openssl-dev I have added extras in my soucres.list file but still no go.

I worked like a charm thanks now I have a mutt-1.3.26 directory with the following subdirectories contrib debian upstream.

Hi Not sure if this should go to a Blackbox mailing list, but anyway. Comming from a window maker background I am very used to sloppy focus in fact I cannot work without it.

Install woes - boottime.kmap.gz
Hi List I have just installed woody on a machine, installation went fine ie drivers install, base install etc etc, then upon rebooting I ran into this: During base-config, where it asks for: 1). Time Zone 2). Passwords 2). Root Password 3). Add user Then it says loading /etc/console/boottime.kmap.gz And it goes through these steps again. So then I enter the appropriate info and then it says: /etc/console/boottime.kmap.gz and goes through the entire process again. It won't get past it. it's almost as if it won't accept my timezone settings any ideas?
