Re: OpenOffice 1.0 ,debs?

There are a lot more errors than that -- any file being copied from types/* to ~/share/cde yields an error. There is no /types dir in /usr/lib/openoffice, nor is there a /kde dir. This is a really boring way to spend a Friday morning. How much more do I have to look forward to? Cam * Chr

Re: gdm startup (xsession)

I'm not sure why, but it is now working! I did take out the '&' at the end of the 'exec wmaker&' file, and perhaps that is what did it (but I don't know why that didn't work before?). Anyway, I appreciate the help, and it is working fine now. Thanks. Ric -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PR

move/rename in cvs

Sometimes I want to rename cvs-managed files or directories or I want to move a file/dir to a different directory. The only way I have found, so far, to do that is to go to $CVSROOT and manually change the repository (potentially dangerous) or to remove and add the file accordingly (which loses a
