Hi,
I'm looking into hacking asmodem/wmppp to make one of them display
for how long has the ppp line been up, but I don't have a clue on how to
do that. Any ideas?
Just for the record. wmppp already does that, but it depends on its own
scripts to do that, and I want it to use Debian's pon

My pleasure.
It does look ok... are /etc/menu-methods/{wmaker,wmstyle} executable?
(This gotta be it!)

Hi,
I'm currently using Pine as my mail reader, but I'm
considering switching to Mutt (or Rmail). I'm having a little trouble
with mutt. First, I can't get it NOT to display characters with a bold
font on an rxvt (on an xterm the colors are a total mess[1]). And
second, I can't get the pag
Hi,
I've already asked this, and I'm sure someone must be having the
same problem...
No matter how I set the backspace in X11, it won't work under rxvt +
some ncurses program, for example, pine. At some point the entry in
/etc/terminfo/r/rxvt was changed, and the backspace stopped working

While I was thinking of a logo for Debian, I started brainstorming about what
"debian" is... I know, it's Debbie and Ian, but was thinking of something else.

Hi,
A couple of people here (including myself) are trying to set up a
router (IP forwarder really) based on Debian. We have an old 486 (it's a Cyrix
486-40) with 4 MB of RAM for the router. According to what I have found on the
web, this should do the work.
We have installed Debian usi
Hi, I'm trying to setup a diskless workstation using Debian. In the not so near

use.doc, and also NFSroot and NFSroot-Client
