I do not know under which conditions WordPerfect is sold, but normally
|
|
why you buy a software product, you effectively buy only a license-to-use.
|
|
*If* you get media and/or documentation, then you only get those to be
|
|
able to exercise your right to use to product. You "own" the media and
|
|
documentation, but you are not allowed to copy them (except copying the
|
|
media for backup purposes). If you return the product (for a refund),
|
|
then you also return the license-to-use, so you are no longer allowed to
|
|
use it. Given this, it really does not matter whether or not the copy
|
|
you made is legal, you are not allowed to use it any longer.

Here's an interesting, if vague, data point. I have a 486DX2/66
|
|
and a P90 networked together. The P90 took the same time to compile
|
|
emacs (8.5 minutes elapsed) as the 66, with the 66 using a local

SCSI disk and the P90 using the same disk via NFS.

Most bang for the buck: Get a 486dx2-66, and make sure it's an AMD
|
|
cpu, not Intel. Then, get a motherboard that you can easily change the
|
|
bus speed settings, via jumpers. A friend of mine bought the above
|
|
combination for $290 (MB + CPU) at a computer show, and the AMD chip
|
|
happily cruises along at an overclocked 80mhz. He ran Doom running
|
|
demo mode for 4 days straight without a crash. His Norton SI is
|
|
152, compared with ~124 at 66mhz, annd 190 for a P5-60. However, I
|
|
heard a rumor that AMD is catching on and now calling their chips
|
|
DX2-80's, so you might want to buy soon while they're cheap.

|

Calling uuname is not a bug, you just have a uucp router in your routers
|
|
file. Or is it that smail allways uses that router even if you comment it out
|
|
in the routers ? I don't remeber.
|
|
|
|
The easiest way out is to install uucp, then smail will call uuname to
|
|
find out that the mail is not going to one of your uucp_neighbours and
|
|
will try the next router.
|
|
|
|
Even a better solution is to disable all routers and use a smart_host instead.
|
|
In that way you avoid the problems with smail not looking up MX records.

Using a Unix system with wine, after sleep, when you're sleepy,

Hi,
|
|
I recently heard about Linux and am very interested. I have
|
|
just bought a new 540M IDE harddrive. On reading the slakware_faq I
|
|
found that Linux has problems with 540M IDE harddrive (cyliders =16
|
|
instead of 32). Is this true for the latest (stable) version of Linux?
|
|
|
|
If not, what is that version?

Thanks for any help/info.

I installed a new kernel on an existing slackware bootfloppy.
|
|
1: mount floppy (mount /dev/fd0 /fd0)
|
|
2: copy zImage of your choice to /fd0
|

3: edit /fd0/etc/lilo.conf and add the new image
|

4: run lilo -r /dev/fd0

I hope I didn't forget anything , but I think the most essential is

the lilo -r (change root dir) found in /usr/doc/lilo

In the AT&T vs BSDI/UCB case, the judge found that use of identical
|
|
structures was not a copyright violation because it was basically
|
|
a compatibility requirement. Since this was only preliminary it's not an
|
|
official precedent. Anyway, for FSF to assert control over data
|
|
structures even in GPLed code would be to assert an interface copyright.

|
|
|
|
In a way, this is unfortunate. A lot of the uncertainty over the LGPL
|
|
is because people say "well, it looks like a dynamic link would satisfy
|
|
the requirements, but it doesn't say so specifically so I'm not sure".

I have been given a 3bit subnet (6hosts+netaddr+broadcast) from
|
|
my internet provider. I use my linux box to establish a slip
|
|
connection and want it to provide to routing for my subnet.
|
|
the subnet is very small right now - just my linuxpc and a sun3
|
|
as an xterm to the pc (running linux-Xkernel!).
|
|
|

here is a little experiment I have tried:
|
|
========================================================================
|
|
ping my sun3 xterminal from a host on the slip-server side... to
|
|
check that the forwarding and routes were correct.... this is
|
|
so I can throw up X stuff on my sun3 from other places on the net.
|
|
|

|

ping from picard to weenie fails, but packets are delivered

The Sinclair QL (a home computer based upon the 68008 processor, which
|
|
came out about the same time as the Amiga and the Atari ST) also had
|
|
an operating system called QDOS.
|
|
|
|
Maybe, these 4 characters are a magic acronym?

Wrong. Read the GPL before complaining about it.

I don't think that would be solved by a biz.comp.linux hierarchy. This is
|
|
a col.help question. How to split col.help is an open issue certainly
|
|
but I don't think it will be split across the comp and biz hierarchies.
|
|
|
|
As to support from Yggdrasil themselves, while they often reply to col.help
|
|
questions, they also state their policy in their manual: custom support
|
|
is "for money" via a 900 line (although they have also outlined a
|
|
mail-robot system). So their IS a place to ask Yggdrasil questions. It's
|
|
just that you don't like it (I don't either actually, but that's not the
|
|
point.)
|
|
|
|
biz groups would not help you in this case.
