I'm aware that Xemacs has problems with GPM (if you put Xemacs to

use GPM to paste text into Xemacs from a different VC? And the other
way around? I certainly can't! Is it a configuration thing?

I have installed Linux on my laptop and i have
now to use 'dselect' to install X and others packages. Problem : i can't find my
way and i'm stuck with dselect from the beginning. I've downloaded the file
'Dselect documentation for beginners' from debian.org but it's not very
helpful. (e.g.
Kenneth Scharf napisal(a):

: 3: script starting pppd must be suid (I think)
Script ? Suid shouldn't work with shell scripts :)
For example:
# cat > test
#!/bin/sh
id
^D
# chmod a+x test
# chmod u+s test
And run test as any user ...
pppd must be suid.

Hi,
For about a 2 weeks I'm unable to install the wmaker package. Dselect tell me
that the package is to much broken and that I should deinstall and when I try
to deinstall I have the message to reinstall the package. Any idea?
Thanks
