After an /etc/init.d/xdm start nothing happens for 30-40 seconds, only
then X starts and the gdm login prompt pops up. startx works instantly,
no delay if I use gdm.
During the gap, xdm shows up in ps but no other (related) stuff.
This happens on a i386/P2-400 SMP and a powerpc/G3-366.

Do an 'apt-cache search ncurses', pick out the latest version and

Two things, Robert. Make sure that autofs is built into your kernel. And
to start off, use a copy of /etc/auto.master.dpkg-dist and
/etc/auto.misc.dpkg-dist into /etc/auto.master and /etc/auto.misc to get you
going with a good example. I would make one change, however. In

Maintenance issues aside, if you want an "empirical" study comparing perl to
python, as well as C/C++ and Java, check the following link:

It's the only article I've seen like it.

hi,
having installed suidmanager well after all other packages, how can i
make sure that suid.conf is properly configured?
i.e. is there a way to tell every single package installed to
reconfigure itself?

This could be caused by NFS caches not being updated properly.
At my installation, I have the same home directory on all machines.
When I start xterms I run a small script ($HOME/bin/xrsh) which execs
a program at a known location ($HOME/bin/xrshd) on the remote

When you do an ifconfig, do you see an ip address and dns?
That would at least tell you if your NIC and the
cable modem were communicating.
Have you tried the connection again with the powerbook plugged in? If
it works then, I would say that your cable modem is now bound to the MAC

Hi,
I have a dialup connection to the net, a mailbox at Yahoo (I'm a bit on the
move) that I access using pop3 retreaval with Fetchmail, and since I really
want to use Mutt (pretty sure it's safe to admit that in this crowd:-) I
