How does a long install affect the usability of the system? You only
have to do it once!

Hi all,
I have a program running on HP-UX 10.20 with X/Windows and would like to
recompile and run on Linux, particular on RedHat. Can anyone tell me how?
I look at the system file but it only had X11R6, how about Motif1.2 or Motif
2.1. I don't see Motif library on the system. How can I get Mo

When you have to reboot single user mode you find that your national
keyboard has not been loaded. Since RedHat mounts filesystems in
single user mode I see no reason loading keytables is not part of the
standard boot procedure for single mode.
In addition given that if some filesystem is damag
If RedHat pushes towards resource hungry User interfaces like
Gnome/KDE and installations in Python who are looong (at least the

there is little reason to continue using the -m486 flag for compiling
since 486s seem far too und
