Hi, folks.
Is there any way to read in my linux box a word 7 .doc file?
Mantaining the "indents" and "bolds" would be a plus, but mainly I
just need to read the text in it.
I use StarOffice to read docs, but it only reads up to word 6 files
:^<
Thanks

The BusLogic readme file with the kernel source states your board is supported.
Try using the kernel parameter 'BusLogic=0'. Which version of debian are you
trying to install? Are you sure you've got kernel support for your controller?
Did you configure the module to be loaded which supports BusLog

Hello,
I've been trying out the latest version of the apt package (0.0.16-1)
and everything is working fine except for one small area.
Does anyone know how, when using apt-get, to have a way to update or
list the "New" packages? Not updating the packages that I already have
on my system.
Anyone know of any updated info on the release of gnome v.20 for
debian? I'm anxiously awaiting it's arrival. Is it possible to simply
install it using the tarballs on the gnome site? Or will there be mucho
configuration I need to do?

Anyone tried to get a Voodoo2 card working under Hamm? I'd like to swap
info - I've just started trying to accumulate the libraries etc;
apparently only the most bleeding edge glide libs for linux do Voodoo2.
I've got a shiny new Canopus Pure3D II and a desire to use it outside of

Right now I've got apt set up to grab the non-us, frozen, and unstable

in hamm that wouldn't be reflected in slink. Seems to work fine,

Are there any good mail notification programs available for Debian? I'm
especially interested in big flashy packages with lots of bells,

WindowMaker and related files can be found in:

WindowMaker has quite a few dependencies, but you will find the
packages on the ftp site likewise, under the corresponding Section

Hi,
I would like to know if the SuperDisk Drive is supported, and how to use it ?
It's a parallel port drive using 120 Mo floppy. It can be put on the printer
port drive. It's also backward compatible with 3.5inches floppies (720Ko and
1.44Mo).

You may use the "dmsdosfs".
You will find it in

(or in one of its mirrors)
as files:

I use the older version 0.8.??? without any problems.
