There is a documented feature of gpm that enables some sort of a "pipe"
between it and X. According to man 8 gpm the option is -R. It will

pon is some sort of script who calls "pppd call connection".
Gnome-Dialup is some sort of front-end for "pppd call", as pon is.

IDE, and use /dev/hdd instead. If the computer's firmware is so old that
it doesn't recognize one slave device without master on the secondary
IDE, you must change your CD-ROM's jumper to set the CD-ROM drive as
master (/dev/hdc).
It _will_ solve your problem.

Why not glibc2.0 compatibility libs for potato, as RH-based distros

probably it's caused by the slow response time of the CD-ROM.
A simple solution is to put de CD-ROM drive in the secondary IDE,as
/dev/hdc or /dev/hdd, and boot from it. It ever worked for me, despite
the system/distro I was using.

BladeEnc produces some bad artifacts when you use bitrates lower than

If you connect it to the first serial, /dev/ttyS0. To the second,
/dev/ttyS1
A way to simplify is make a symbolic link to the device, creating a
/dev/mouse pointing to ttyS0 or ttyS1.
