Hi Kent,
Try 'chmod u+x'-ing it. Works for me.

Just to make sure: /home/kent/.joe_bak exists and is a directory writable
by you, right?
I have a similar setup here w
err to stdout, which you can
then pipe to less.
You can find this in `man bash`, search for REDIRECTION.
Hope this helps.

Hi again,

There *is* a command-line option to tell X where to look for it's
configuration files (see 'man XFree86'), but IMO it is easier to just make
sure that the file you want it to read is where it looks by default,
i.e. in /etc/XF86Config. O

Try

Which choices *are* you offered. I get cdrom as the first option. Another
candidate would be apt, if it's there. Try putting the CDs in (no need to

Hi!
Sorry, I did not follow this thread from the beginning, and maybe this has

graphics card? I had the "square white box cursor" problem once on an ELSA
Winner 1000 T3D and got rid of it by disabling the hardware
cursor. Appr
