The file you're looking for is /etc/inittab. There is a line about halfway
down the file that controls the startup run level. On a Mandrake system,
set this to 3 to boot into the command line. It should currently be a 5 if
you boot into X.
to start X later, type startx at the command line.

No, you do not have to be root, unless Mandrake is really strange,

Ha! That *was* a good answer :-). For some reason dbmmanage creates
only one file in FreeBSD, but seems to create two in most Unix
flavors. I was worried that the odd DBM files were causing

Hi,
Solaris's default db library is NDBM. It creates two files as
you saw. (I believe .dir is index, and .pag is data).
FreeBSD's or (any *BSD) default db is Berkley DB, and it uses
only one file.
If you don't want to have two files, you can install Berkely
DB2 (or 3) from SleepyCat Software (ht

I want to bring up X-Windows windows from my Linux box at home from the various

and exceed (an X-Server for windows).
I've been told port 6000 is the key...

here's a neat X trick a smart person recently taught me for borrowing an x
session from somewhere else and putting it on a second display on your own
machine:
setenv DISPLAY :1 for csh,tcsh,zcsh or export DISPLAY=:1 for bash/ksh
then
X -query machine.you're.borrowing.from :1

When I try to compile Converttags.pl I get the following error:

Hi Lynn,
The error below means that there are too many asterisk characters ('*') in
the regular expression, which is probably caused by the fact that there's
a '*' character in what you're trying to match (the last line in FILE2).
If you truly want to match that, try this:
$string2 = quotemet
23 matches
