I have thought of sharing /opt and perhaps /usr/local, but have been

Is this available on-line, or do I have to get it from
the package? Is there an NT based tool that will open

I realize that the mouse won't work in both gpm and X (without the
repeat function) in many cases, but it does for me so I haven't really
questioned it (!) /dev/mouse is a symlink to /dev/psaux, of course.
I have a problem with gpm occasionally not working correctly, but
'/etc/init.d/gpm restart'
could somebody tell me how i could upgrade debian 2.2 trough an aol
connection with windows ;
downloading first the files to the hd and dselect with the file option ?

Yup, it happens.If this is a problem for you, don't run a
distribution that advertises itself as "unstable". Or, even better,
find the problem and file appropriate bug reports.

When trying to start emacs out of a xterm with su permissions the
system complaines:
MINI:/home/rland# emacs
Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server
Xlib: Client is not authorized to connect to Server
emacs: Cannot connect to X server :0.0.
Check the DISPLAY environment variable or use `-d'.

Does this relate to the current deb2.2 distribution?

I notice in your config that you don't have gpm being used as a repeater
device (I.E. the -R option). That won't work will it? I've always had
to make gpm repeat and have X use /dev/gpmdata in order to make gpm and
X work correctly with the mouse. How can you get gpm and X to both work
without t
Hi,
I have no trouble reading *ps.gz files using hghostview and gv under
Mandrake, but loading ghostview and gsfonts under Debian I find myself
unable to open *.gz ending files. I have to uncompress them to read. Any
thoughts? Maybe a default config Mandrake used but Debian doesn't?
Thanks,
Jona
