Lyx with typein

I recently decided to add lyx to my debian system. It seems straightforward. However, I tend to make forms with the "\typein" command. When I add this to a lyx document (and mark it as a tex command), I get errors. Any help?? i.b.

Bo with Wine

Is there a way to keep the bo distribution of debian and install Wine? I was thinking that you might could downgrade and use the older version of libc5 which doesn't conflict w libc6, then just add the libc6 program, make links, and then install wine. Then you could just wait until Hamm becomes B

Re: Newbie --Adding Programs To My Debian Base

I've been using debian for about 5 weeks. I'm just starting to think about adding some programs, not in the packages, to my system. One such program came in the form of "program.bin.gz". I figure I can use my debian gunzip to get the first part of it unzipped. I have no idea what to do with the "pr

Message Handler for a Newbie

I downloaded the debian package for Message Handler. It seems to be a nifty program. I've tried to configure it correctly, but some unknown reason I can't seem to compose letters for debian-user lists. There's also a bug wherein it won't view the digest formats. The net has a patch shown, but I ca
