IP and netmask, but doesn't have DHCP as an option. Should I just pick my "current" values and then install dhcpcd (or another DHCP client package) afterwards? What is preferred? Thanks in advance for answers on these issues. -- SEGV MINION Project: http://www.cgocable.net/~

Re: Plextor PX-412C ? (was: what cd-writer ?)

Debian 2.1?

re: palmpilot III and ibm thinkpad 760xl

create a "/dev/pilot" device for convenience. I found pilot-xfer was looking for "/dev/pilot" even when I specified the serial port. That is, it was ignoring that command line option. So do that and try "pilot-xfer -l". So... when is Debian packaging Linux for Palm

M-g in XEmacs 20.4?

t "A-g not defined". So my ALT key has reverted to ALT behaviour, instead of META which I am sure it was before. What has changed? I'm need my M-g! Thanks! -- SEGV Homepage: http://www.cgocable.net/~mlepage/ Java Game Engine: http://www.cgocable.net/~mlepage/YAGE/ --
