and i already love apt-get.
but i have a small problem: man doesnt let me use PageUp and PageDown to
scroll the man-page. i can use space to scroll one page

When I run man on certain topics, it will now just twiddle its thumbs
until I Ctrl-C it, at which point it says "can't remove /tmp/: No such file or directory." Anything I can do about this?

Nope, not too bad
My problem with man is as follows: say I type "man ," I get
the following error:
man: can't set effective uid: Operation not permitted
Surely this isn't too bad, eh?

That sometimes happens if I unpack tar files as root in /tmp. If
there is a . file in the archive tar will set the ownership and
permissions of the /tmp directory the same as this file.

Trouble? e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
I've done a recent simple installation of a subset of bo.
root can access man just fine.
If a "normal" user issues a man command, such as 'man man' the following
output appears:
man: can't create a temporary filename: No such file or directory
Must be a permissions problem, but where?
Thanks.
