Hi...
Linux has no Y2K issues aside from the BIOS. It's that simple. However,
sometime in the 2030s, it will have some time_t problems if not fixed by
then. They should be, although you will probably need to upgrade your
embedded system if you want it to keep running after then.

Hi.
After using Debian 2.0 at home (and enjoying it very much) I decided to
bring it to work, install it on some computers and show the world that
Debian is better then both Win.NT and RedHat5.1.
Well, I didn't bring the CD with me since I knew that I can have it here
through NFS.
The problem is th

stuff on DVDs to run.
Video card: As long as X and svgalib support it, it should probably be
fine. S3 Trio* based cards will definitely work. Odd things like Re

Hi...
It's really up to you. I really recommend building a machine from scratch,
but if you insist on having someone else do it for you, a specialized
Linux machine is probably a safe bet. (proprietary technology is a pain in
the *** with Linux)

I tried doing that, and it didn't work.
I'll try again, and maybe I'll have more luck (and check that there is no
problem with the NFS server...)

Hi
I have a question about (my) printer. To print postscript i installed
the magicfilter package and select the filter for canon bjc-600. It
works fine. The only problem is that i have a canon 4100, and comparing
with win95, that have the right filter, in linux, its much more slowly

wait the the Lilo prompt, then press shift. It gives you a few seconds
before it automatically boots your default setting.
