Dear Dr Debian,
I woke up this morning to discover that there had been a blackout. My
computer had tried to reboot but couldn't even get a LILO prompt.

LILO prompt (it printed "LI") and then hung. I tried rebooting again

It supports TCP/IP in version 7 out of the box, and the TCP/IP is
available for older versions, but I would recommend version 7 anyway.

Hi,
Sorry about the previous posting...
I solved the problem already.. :)

Eloy,
Under 2.0.25 there are options for how the system reboots. These are specified
on the LILO command line. One of these will probably solve your rebooting

boot: linux reboot=c
at the lilo prompt, or in /etc/lilo.conf add the line

I am using a debian 1.1 box installed from infomagic cd. I have setup a
printer to print using ghostscript and all works well. But just one
question, lpq always say printer is ready and printing even when the
printer is offline. Is there any way to report the true status of the
printer?
Regards.

I can confirm your experince. With both Xfree 3.1.2 and 3.2 I get
double images in some application (e.g. Mosaic but not Grail). It

seems to go away with when I use the XF86_SVGA server.
The solution is to upgrade to the SVGA s
