I've been asked to find a Message Board (ie BBS) to be installed on a

Hi all,
A quick question for all the Xemacs gurus out there.
My xemacs menu bar has a very bloody ugly, thick, cursive font, and it
doesn't look at all pretty. What I want is a nice boring font, like
`fixed'.
The Xemacs FAQ suggests the following lines:
Emacs.default.attributeFont: -*-*-medium
Problem resolved. It was a bonehead mistake.
/pub M1(rw,no-root_squash) which NFS didn't like
fixed it and everything is fine.

Hi all, I downloaded the intel compiler form Intel and I want
to check it on my pentium IV computer. I run unstable with 2.4.10
kernel.
The tar file from Intel contain 5 rpm packages (for RH 6.2) and an install
script. I can't run the install script. I try to make .deb out of .rpm
using alien, but

The ac97_core is another driver that the maestro3
uses. I can't answer your question on the esound
plugin, I have never used that plugin. The XMMS MP3
player sounds good considering the speakers on a
laptop. My Laptop is a HP Pavilion 5450.

on that note, is it possible to tell apt/dpkg to simply reinstall all
files? as in re-unpack the tar archive, leaving config files alone if
they've been messed with but aren't missing?

which has a USB cdrw drive (and no other removable drive), and I have been
