bash profile question

1996-10-03 Thread Marcel Burggraeve
I know you can use your .bash_profile to let you see the current directory and a prompt ( like in dos or os/2 ) I do have a profile which does this but was wondering if some people could post their profiles so maybe I can choose another which I like more or something like that. Carved upon my sto

syslogd won't start

1996-10-03 Thread Joey Hess
I'm having a problem with the sysklogd package. Sometimes when I boot up, it says it's starting syslogd, waits there for about a minute (much longer than usual), and then continues on to start klogd.

no wildcards from command line

Hey there everyone, For some reason, I am not able to use any wildcards from the command line in Debian. I am meaning things like 'ls *', and other assorted wildcards. Is there some package I did not install that this should be in? It seems odd that I have the ability to use the ls, cp, rm, etc
