Well, for one thing, it runs on systems other than 386 boxes.  That

I can't help regarding getting you the stuff, but I can tell you that 
you can get Linux up as a functioning news/mail/uucp system.

I have the following up on my system (096c or 097apl2, depends on my mood):

	(From mailpak v1.1 I think)
	===========================
	- Taylor UUCP (HoneyDanBer mode)
	- elm2.3pl11
	- smail2.5

	(From me via anon-ftp)
	======================
	- Cnews 122191 patchlevel (current not including the spring 
		speed-up interim patches)
	- Tin 1.1pl4

Compiling uucp/cnews/tin was a breeze.  I had trouble with elm under
linux, so I grabbed mailpak (thanks Ed...).  smail is listed in the uucp
stuff as v3.1, but it's really v2.5 .  The makefile is all messed up for
smail, but it's a quickie to compile and install by hand.

I hear that the past kernel problems with serial i/o dropping characters
has been fixed (I'll see Monday when my 14.4 modem comes in (whoopee!)).

uucp has trouble with not punting when it encounters a busy signal.
word (from Ed? I forget) is that it's being worked on for a future patch.

Regarding C-news, if you have it compiled on other platforms, you won't
have any trouble with Linux...same for tin.

[...editorial note - would anybody want a patched-up, ready to compile
	version of C-news uploaded to one of the archive sites ?  I'd
	be willing to do that, or upload my 'build.def' file if anybody
	needs to see how to define things...]

Unfortunately, if this is intended to be a DOS emulator, you are going to 
have to trap the VGA registers that bank the video ram into and out of
the memory map.  This could be made easier if sysv shared memory blocks
were in place.  Create (1M/64K) shared memory blocks, and when the VGA
registers are twiddled, change the mapping of the memory blocks.

Also, if it were possible to get at the "page dirty" flag, it would be
very easy to tell which 4K chunks have been modified.  This without
needing to service interrupts.  It seems to me that waiting for the 
alarm and checking all 16 pages at the same time would be faster than
having the overhead of a (several?) task-switch to service each interrupt.

Yes, the tcp/ip subdirectory will be part of the next major release (ie

People who need it can recompile the kernel easily enough, and it's not
essential for the rest of the system.

  Thank you, I like the idea of no overhead if the screen is not
modified, but I wonder what the trap will cost.

  And poll the page dirty flags? Hum. I don`t know what that would
entail, or even if it would be less overhead, since a system call to get
the flags might cost as much as a trap to indicate a modification. Fun
times finding out!

  I believe the best thing is to map the screen memory whenever
possible, sunce as when running directly rather than under X. This
reduces trapping to just the registers.

  Re the comment I seem to have edited out, SysV shared memory would
probably be easy using the code from mmap(), only that doesn't work in
the general case, either.

  There is room for a lot of missing IPC still, like semiphores, message
queues, etc. That's not a complaint in any way, just a comment on the
current state of the kernel.

0.97 seems to fail if the actual executable is owned by root and has a mode of
711 (or actually, any mode that does not include read permission).  If the executable
is owned by a non-root user, things do work correctly.  Is this some sort of security
measure in the kernel?  Maybe I (or anyone else) should look at the kernel code to
find out!

Well, the DAK price is nice, but you better order fast, since DAK

Actually, Linux also supports several other SCSI controllers, the
ST01/2 (Seagate) being among them, and those are s'posed to be dirt
cheap.

Go for it.  :)  I'm sure that once someone decides they need it
enough, they'll write one - until then, why bother?  I don't know many
people who would go out and buy some hardware just so they can write
the drivers for it.

This is pure speculation, but I suspect it may also be harder to get
the information needed to write drivers for the proprietary (non-SCSI)
systems.

The Hurd is a multi-server; I guess the Linux Single server would be a,
well, single server.  The difference seems pretty obvious to me:  a single
server consists of a single process / task / whatever, whereas a multiserver
consists of lots of (hopefully small and fast) programs that sit and handle
specific requests.  For example, a filesystem server, a process server, a
networking server, etc.

There are a lot of people who do not want or need the complexity that comes
with a multi-server, and, so, I guess there is a movement to make Linux work
on top of Mach3.0.

Date: 30 Aug 92 21:56:21 GMT
Organization: The Great Beyond

After watching the progress of Linux for some time, I decided to
take the plunge. I cleared off my 200meg hard drive to dedicate it
to Linux, downloaded the MCC-0.97p2 files, and had at it. It works
amazingly well! My compliments to all who contributed to the project
thus far.

How for the obligatory newbie questions:

1. I now plan to snarf GNU Emacs and X11R5. What's the best way to
do that? Download to DOS and use mtools to move it over? (I've read
about mtools but haven't a clue if it'll do that.) Should I get the
Unix sz/rz package (kermit strikes me as too slow)?

2. How should I partition my hard drive? At the moment I have 4
partitions: / - 32m, /usr - 32m, /home - 32m, /usr/src - 64m. I'm
perfectly willing to throw away my current setup and start over with
a better partitioning. 

3. When I fired up Kermit under Linux, it thinks that the port DOS
considered COM2 is /dev/ttys1. How come? Also, I notice that the DTE
speed is limited to 38.4. How come?

4. I have a Colorado Jumbo tape drive. Any plans to add a device
driver for it or is CMS one of those greedy companies who'll be
happy to sell us one?

5. In the same vein, what's the best way to do backups?

6. Is there an easy fix to the AT keyboard braindamage of the
control and CAPSlock keys? I've used a little TSR in DOS-land, Can I
hack the Linux kbd driver to switch them?

One last humerous note. I've been a faithful Emacs hack since my
days on Tenex and have always used ed (yes - ed) when I needed to
hack in single user mode. Yikes! No ed on linux. I had to stumble
around using that THING called vi which up to now i've avoided like
the plague. Oh well, all you vi-ers can chalk one up. But hey! We
still eat our desserts first!  ;-)

Is it normal for executables compiled under 0.97 to be on the average about
10K larger than those compiled under 0.96?  I was under the impression that
the shared libraries would reduce not only memory consumption, but the size
on disk as well?  Or is there so much new stuff in the 2.2.2d libraries that
the actual executable is larger??

The current SLS is a cross section of Linux at .96cp2 and thus it uses
only the "minix" fs.   Also note, the boot_b procedure doesn't work 
because the ram disk still tries to load from A:.  This doesn't affect
those that download SLS, but if you distribute it to others, please
take note.

On another note:  others can distribute packages that are installable under
SLS by observing the following:

	- tar archive from / (root) and compress
	- use ".taz" as the suffix, rather than ".tar.Z"
	- restirct prefix name to <= 8 chars.
	- restrict package size to <= 1150K.
	- optionally include a shell script to execute in "/install/doinst.sh".

Ideally, I would like to see GCC, X11, and others distributed this way.
Then installation would work, universally.

In the next SLS release, I will see to it that extract works with the doinst.sh
shell script.  Also, a SLS FAQ will be included, and hopefully, documentation
will be improved, since one of the goals of SLS was to reduce net traffic.
