The best solution would be using ip filters such as ipchains to block the
port from outside users, so no conections at all can be made to the
xserver port. You might also check Xaccess and ensure only ip addresses
that need access to port 6000 have it, which is often only the local

I used --revision=custom.1.0 kernel_image with 2.2.11 and it worked fine.
I applied an ac patch at a later time and when using make-kpkg with the

If you are like me and are trying to figure a way to connect your windows
pc to a linux system without a network card than you may find these links
handy.
I've found several sites that offer freeware, shareware, and trialware that
connect the pc to linux via tcp/ip connection of the serial port.
Just dandy.
With the help of Heikki Vatiainen I was able to get my 3com905c

so... the next question should be obvious... does anyone have any
Does anyone have tips on using XWindows on a low resolution screen (eg
laptop)?

I just installed Debian 2.1 on a system with an Adaptec 2940 controller
which ran, among other things, the CD I used. After running into the
well-known problems with that controller, I made a boot floppy from the
