Hi, # Skip intro if you don't care (paragraph 2 for hardware desc.) # Sorry about the length. I talk too much in person, too :) # If I do anything flame-able, please let me know. I'll learn. I've been curious about GNU/linux for some years now, and have just recently found a block of time to devo

Hi Colin, Thanks for your reply. Yours is the only one I've received so far about anything other than linux graphic apps ;P Perhaps I hit a nerve. > The community is often forthright, but I love it. :-) Forthright is good, IMHO. Everything else is kind of a waste of time. > I think you're right

newbie XF86Config G4 867

Hi, I've been working on configuring XFree86 for a couple of days, now. I keep getting "fatal error: no screens found." I'm still a bit unsure, as there's more than one config tool (eg, dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86, xf86config), and more than one config file - /etc/X11/XF86Config-4, /root/XF86

Sarge OpenOffice (in German??)

Hi, So, I'm messing around with my newly working KDE, exploring the programs and such, and my gf asks me if there's an office program. I said, 'Yeah! There is. Here... I'll show it to you,' and opened the OpenOffice Writer that I had recently downloaded from the usc mirror as part of my initial ap

Re: Config X in Sarge

Hi Derek, I just went through setting up X myself, with the same error. I can't even guess what the problem is from your email, though, so I suggest the following: Check your /var/log/XFree86.0.log file and see what (WW) warning and (EE) error messages there are. These should give you a good idea
