stderr will be paged thru less, while stdout will be sent to

I have a question about installing 2.0. I have installed it succesfully at
home and on a computer here at work. I am now trying to install it on a

wierd results when I try to boot the CD. I have a Buslogic BT-958 SCCI

Thanks for the help Jens.
I had indeed modified the X server to use xkb in order to get backspace
working properly. I edited the /usr/lib/X11/xkb/keymap/xfree86 to change
xkb_symbols from pc105 to pc101. As you pointed out pc105 was mapping my
alt keys to alt and the non-existent windows keys to m

Correct except you should be able to find the packages you need in
bo-updates to install and use debh
In looking at the thread, I didn't see anyone mentioning that sound
should be compiled as a module, so isapnp can configure the card
before the sound driver tries to talk to the card. (I have been
known to miss seeing things before )

Hi,
I'm trying to use a package for drawing timing diagrams I downloaded from
CTAN. I'm pretty new to TeX and haven't figured out all the programs yet.
Specifically I don't where to place all the files in the package. I put them
in a local directory and which was in my $TEXINPUTS environment varia
Well, in my opinion the X server install should detect that you've changed
these files
