OK to remove libc5? I'm
assuming I have the latest versions of the apps that need libc5 in the new dist
and that they depend on libc6. Is this the case?

Typically this means that you have a bad rescue disk. Iv'e heard of some
people needing to make three or four rescue disks before they could get one
to work. Personally, I had no problems with my first disk, but I haer that

The further details described reiterate the same info as above with the addition of adding lines to the xinitrc file. Can anyone help!?!?!?!?! Tom Persons
How do I get to the XF86 config from the command prompt? When

Does anyone know if Debian/XWindows supports the

go to set up X Windows. I have to choose "Unsupported VGA" and the

Actually, if you check an earlier post someone responded with the address of
a site that mirrors this list. But your right, that many e-mail's at 28.8 or

Maybe I missed something but why is this even an issue? I have configured my
mail client (in windows for the time being) to route all debian-user mail to
a seperate folder. Sure it can be cumbersome to wait for a couple hundred
e-mails to download but with a 56K connection I can surf or do whatever
Richard,
Thanks for the info, I'm hopeing for the best!! I'm not connected to a
LAN however, so I'm wondering if Linux has dial up support. From what I can
tell it doesn't appear so. Is there a way I can download from windows then
somehow "see" these files while running linux? The reason CDROM s
