I just just installed Debian from the August 96 release of
Infomagic's 6 CD set and I would like to know how to access
(using dselect) the local and non-free packages.
Are they in the CD set?

For now, if you are using the Bourne shell, use
TERM=linux
export TERM
or for the C-shell, use
setenv TERM linux
This is where my memory gets foggy. Some security package called lshell or
something similar messes up the shell environment. The fix is to deinstall

Hey there everyone,
I am a bit new to the linux thing, and I seem to be having some trouble
locating my modem. It is an internal 33.6 cardinal voice modem, and it
uses com3 on my win95 setup. Being an internal com port, I don't think
it was configured when I added the serial ports to the kernel

I guess you want all .html documents to be processed for server side
includes? I did, and so I edited /etc/apache/srm.conf.. somewhere in there
there should be a line that says:

Hi,
I asked this question earlier but got no answer. Would very much like
to try debian but can't run dselect. Please take a quick look... it
can't be a difficult one:
After having installed debian for the first time and logging in as
root I got the opportunity to install packages with dselect.

Can anyone help ?
I cannot get LaTeX to work. When I try to LaTeX a file, the following
message comes up:
This is TeX, Version 3.1415 (C version 6.1)
I can't find the default format file!
What is this format file?? Is there something I haven't initialised??
TeX works OK though.
