Can anyone give me a short and sweet rundown of what I need configured to
get a working fetchmail system running?
I have SMail set up and working (I can send E-mail from my system, and I can
send/receive email between different accounts on my system).
Now I want fetchmail to grab mail from my ISP
I've never tried using xscreensaver before, and so I am not sure if this is
an xscreensaver configuration problem, or an xbase configuration problem:
I recently tried installing xscreensaver, but when I try to start it I get

Is there a way to configure dselect-ftp to automatically retry
downloading packages during an FTP error?
For example, this weekend I did an install of hamm(frozen) using

I ordered from LSL (from a US address) and it took several weeks to show up
because they had some problem with a bad address label, so it bounced back
and forth a few times. I e-mailed them for help, and they took almost a

Other than that, they seem reputable and offer Deb
Can anyone steer me towards documentation on Unicode support in Linux?
Note:
1. I have looked through the stuff on the Unicode Standards Web Site.
2. I have read the man pages stuff for the Gnu C Lib (although what I
have may be out of date).
What current documentation is there on say libstdc++
Has anyone used xfstt on a regular basis? I've gotten Netscape to work
using TT fonts, now I'd like to get other X applications to work and I
want to know what other's experiences are.
Any comments?

Is there an easy way to start a process on another virtual terminal?
For example, I would like to run the RC5DES client from Distributed.net
on a virtual terminal, so I can alt-f7 over to it and see how it is
doing from time to time. I tried cat rc5des > /dev/tty7, which doesn't
work...
Thanks,
I'm pretty embarassed to be asking this question, since I'm sure there's
a simple resolution. But, here goes:
I have recently tried to follow a better security model, by creating a
user account for myself on my Linux box, instead of doing everything as
root. In doing so, I have somehow managed t
I've just installed the pgp-us package, and tried to run the key
generation portion of the program. It accepts my input, pass phrase,
etc., but fails as follows after calculating the key indicating that it
failed while attempting to write the key file to my home directory.

Can anyone tell me if there is a way to generate "screen dumps" of bash
sessions?
For example, let's say I have a test-mode application that asks for some
input and then outputs something in response. Is there a way to have
this whole exchange dumped to the printer, so that both the program

For those who are interested, my BASH problems were due to the presence
of some control characters in the script file. I was using the "ae"
editor, which in its latest incarnation was inserting a "^M" at the end
of each line to signify a carriage return. Once I switched to vi I
could see the char
Can anyone tell me why I can't generate working Bash scripts?
For example, I want to create a short script called "print" so that I

I have been working lately on upgrading to hamm. In an effort
to fix a
problem with dpkg-ftp, I upgraded to the following packages:
dpkg_1.3.0.20.deb
dpkg-ftp_1.4.9.deb
I think you need to upgrade to dpkg-dev to get a working dselect.
