I just dl'ed 1.3, and the default font on bootup needs to be changed. I barely
recall that when I installed 1.2, there was a config question about the fonts,
but I have no idea how or where to make the change in 1.3.

Hi you gurus out there,
dpkg-gencontrol suddenly breaks when I try to build a debian-packaged
kernel image.
The last time I tried this it worked, the system was an upgraded 1.3 then.
The only differences between now and then that I can think of are some
installed packages from bo-updates, inclu

`ncftp' is much superiour. Try it instead. (That's if you can
download it... I could MIME attach and mail it to you if you like.)

The autoloading isn't working right, I think. You might try
reporting it on news:comp.emacs.xemacs. Try:
(load-library "latex")
Figured it out, somehow my /tmp became unreadable. That's fixed now.

Somehow my inbox became read only, when I start pine, it says something
about can't removing the mailbox lock file, but I can't find any lockfile.
How could I have messed this up, I didn't do anything really except add an
account which also has this problem.
TIA,

The solution to this problem is simply to purge dosemu and then
reinstall it. Thank you Ulf Jaenicke-Roessler.
The problem is that dselect only removes packages -
it does not purge them. This means that one cannot use dselect
and remove and then successfully install dosemu. This is analogous t

The new archive structure is completely unknown to any current versions of
dselect. As a result, when dselect asks its first question (where is the
"standard" archive), the correct answer is "none". After that you can
supply the complete path for each of the three sections of the
distribution for e

Now that contrib and non-free have moved inside the distributions, I can
no longer access them via dselect. What stupid thing am I doing wrong?
I'm trying to get unstable's main, contrib and non-free areas.
I tried both dpkg 1.4.0.8 in stable and 1.4.0.17 in unstable, combined
with dpkg-ftp 1.4.8
I have a US Robotics Sportster 28,800, and it works, sort of. However,
