Installing Lahey fortran (libc5?) in Potato

2000-09-19 Thread José Luis Gómez Dans
Hi! I want to install Lahey's fortran 95 compiler in my debian box. This is a vanilla (ish!) potato box which works fine. However, there is a little catch: the installer (which takes a key and licences the software, copies the files and so on) is a shell script that calls some programs. The

Hi! As you can see from this message, I keep on having "undesired" features when using gnupg in conjuctions with Mutt: the output of gnupg is attached to the e-mail. I have noticed that some other people suffer from the same problem when signing their messages with gnupg. The software versi

Hi! I have so far been experiencing erratic svgalib behaviour. Basically, if I call something like zgv, I get the following message: c172d Int 0x10 is not in rom (:) No VESA bios detected! Try running vga_reset. and zgv (or whatever) runs in VGA mode, instead of SVGA mode.

Hi! I don't know if you remember some query about compiling a new kernel for Athlon based systems. Basically, my kernel just woudln't work. In the end, I found out that this wasn't due to a wrong processor or anything like that: it was due to the motherboard (WS-6167), and in particular of
