Can I just add a file to here that does what I want?
What about the rc.x directories?

The net install was a 2.2.17 kernel, missing lots of stuff. I made a

It's more like NT, but it matters not. You can still use LILO to boot, if
you're more comfortable with that. Otherwise, do that NT bootloader thing,
but that requires you to copy over the bootsector to your NT drive everytime
you upgrade your kernel.

Hi,
I was hoping someone would be able to help on this one as I have never done it
before.
What I am trying to do, is set up a debian box that will serve as a mailserver
(both smtp and pop), dial-on-demand internet access, and fax server.
The dial on demand is solved, and works beautifully. It ro

I'm pretty sure it IS correct.

I have a dell inspirion 5000, and was looking for a way to shutoff the
backlight on the screen when I blank it. If anyone knows of a utility,
or whether or not this is even possible, please let me know.

Most motherboards have a simple jumper to clear the CMOS memory. See if
you can find the manual on the net somewhere.

Argh, no! Well, okay, you COULD do that, but then you'd be wasting the
efforts of the kernel-package maintainer...
Do an apt-get install kernel-package kernel-source bin86
Then chdir /usr/doc/kernel-package

Hey everyone,
just a short question :

Oh.
Well, John. Your user will have to install an X-server on his machine.
IIRC, there used to be a free beer version of M/IX for Windows, but as of
version 2.0, it isn't. So, you can go with that -- or MicroX or Exceed or
hope that the XFree on Windows project ships something soon.
