When I came to read news today, there were 216 articles in
comp.os.linux; this is a bit unmanageable.

It makes me think that it is time to raise again the question of
splitting comp.os.linux; last time I remember a lot of people seemed
to be against it.  By now, however, the volume has increased markedly,
and it is obvious that we are not going to be able to keep most of the
discussion on the mailing lists.  If anything there is less traffic on
the lists than on the group.

Here are my vague ideas for the sort of set of groups we might create.
 
comp.os.linux.questions         - Like comp.unix.questions.  The place where
                                  people needing advice about linux can post.
comp.os.linux.network           - People will always have problems with
                                  networking, it's that sort of subject.
                                  Similarly it will always be being improved.
comp.os.linux.X11               - X and gcc are sure to always generate a lot
comp.os.linux.gcc                 of volume, they are big programs that are
                                  heavily used.
comp.os.linux.misc              - We need a sort of catch all group I think.
                                  The rest of Usenet seems to dislike groups
                                  which are not leaf nodes of the tree; for
                                  example alt.security became
                                  comp.security.misc to avoid doing having
                                  comp.security.announce and comp.security.
                                  That was why I said ...linux.misc, not
                                  ...linux.
 
                                  However, if we have ...linux, we won't have
                                  problems closing down the old group - I don't
                                  really know which is best.

I'd be interested to know what other people think to these ideas.

It is a very straightforward program. I compiled the one for Minix without

OK, I've found and fixed the bug!!
(For people tuning in late, I managed to get Ingres compiled and
installed, but it wouldn't print out numeric fields).

You need to edit ctlmod/main.c, and change the declaration of Out_arg
to be extern, otherwise gcc puts it in bss, and doesn't connect it
with iutil/out_arg.c:Out_arg

Similarly you may wish to retrieve /IAFA-LISTINGS or /ls-lR

other ftp-mail servers, I am about (in the next week hopefully)
to establish a ftp-mail server on sunsite.  I'll announce it

Beg pardon, but I think you haven't been keeping up on this thread; it's
about 4/8 port boards known to work with Linux, and it is one of the few
threads I am following in c.o.l.  If you don't like it here, suggest
breaking up c.o.l into subgroups (then duck).  But seriously, there
are a number of threads that are of interest to relatively few people;
just cause you're not interested, don't assume it "has nothing to do
with Linux".  I'm gonna get a 4/8 port board one of these days, and
I'm still in an information gathering mode. 

So for those with info about 4/8 port boards for Linux, don't drop the
thread.

!!! STOP !!!

This is neither INT 00 (Divide by Zero, which on most BIOSes only print a
message) nor INT 21 function 00h (Terminate Program), it is INT 21 function
0Ch subfunction 00h.

INT 21:0C clears the stdin buffer, whereafter it immediately calls the INT
21 function specified in AL **if AL is nonzero**.  The MOV AX,0C00h , INT
21h code seems to mean:

	Flush input buffer, then do nothing

How about porting it to and releasing it for LINUX?  Or are you trying

Odd.  I'm in charge of the mtools instalation at UNLV, and we don't have either
of these problems.  Any user can mwrite, mread, etc.  I know nothing special was
done to mtools, maybe it's the 'protection' given to /dev/rdf0.

I can write a full disk in a minute or two, as well.  Try mtools.  In fact,
I plan on getting mtools working on my linux machine, just so I don't have
to mess with tar anymore :-)

Hi folks,

Could anyone send me or point me to (ported) source or a binary
for patch? (even a Linux Makefile would be great)

I tried the source from MIT (gnu) and the comp.sources.unix archives, but 
Larry's Configure script gags on my system, and I haven't been able 
to fix it. No awk, etc., and "gcc -E" doesn't seem to do what he 
wants for cpp stuff (strange that, I have gcc2.2.2d).

I looked at both US ftp sites, but couldn't find anything. 
I'd rather not go ftp'ing around the planet for something that
everybody else seems to have, and telling archie to search
for "patch" isn't going to help much. :)

I'm so close to being able to get X working on my system, I
just can't stop now. Please help???

Thanks, 

Scott

This is GNU C/C++ 2.2.2 (Linux version 2.2.2d7). It is linked with
jump table 4.1. You should use it with the Linux C library disks since
the C/C++ compiler has no shared images, which are required by all the
binaries in it. It has 2 minix disks. It can fit in either 5.25" or
3.5" floppy.

It is on tsx-11.mit.edu under pub/linux/GCC/gccdisk


A. Disk 1 (222d7a.Z)

It has gcc, cpp, cc1 and crt0.o/gcrt0.o. Some header files are in
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-linux/2.2.2d/include.

B. Disk 2 (222d7b.Z)

It has cc1plus.

To install them on your hard drive.

1. uncompress base[1|2|3].Z.
2. rawrite or dd it to a floppy disk.

Now you have made a copy of gcc 2.2.2d7 on floppy. To copy it to
your hd, you should mount the floppy first and copy the disk. That is

mount /dev/fd[0|1] /mnt
cd /mnt
for d in bin dev etc usr
do
  if [ -d $d ]; then
    cp -av $d /
  fi
done

Note: This may overwrite some files on your hard disk.

Thanks.

I've found that the gnuplot.diff from gnuplot3.1 (frpm tsx-11) also works for
gnuplot3.2 (which I got from dartmouth.edu).  These patches allow
use on VGA, not X-11.

Is it just me, or do these two sentences not agree when placed next to
each other?  An ET4000 based is no where near close to "almost any video card",
and further the Xfree86 software supports more video cards than just the
ET4000 (though almost everyone who doesn't own one of the cards supported
will agree that it doesn't support enough video cards!).

No. That's inaccurate. You don't need the X11R5 source tree to build
the Xaw3d library. I have compiled it in the past (no longer have it,
though) and it compiles almost right out of the box and does not need
the X source tree. You have to have the usual headers and stuff though
(all come with XFree86 package at tsx-11).

Hi all,

I'm trying to compile u386mon.  It doesn't work because it can't find nlist.h.
Are the functions defined in that header supported on Linux (it defines
nlist() ).  If not, how do I go about getting one that works, in order to
compile u386mon?
