    Hello, I'm familiar with compiling

    ./configure --help works well in most cases for showing you which libraries the source may have dependencies on and how to specify their paths.

    Proxy server on linux

    Red Hat isn't any better than any other linux distro for use as a firewall. He'll need to write a few routing table rules and a document or two on subnetworking. That's all. Subnetworking docs at www.tldp.org Linux kernel (fully proxy capable) at www.kernel.org

    FIXED Win2kAS (eval) FIC PA 2013 VIA Apollo MVP3

    There could be more problems with this install. We could be in a nuclear war. Win2kAS will not install on this mobo when booted from the Win2kAS CD. I tried every possible combination of BIOSs, boot.ini settings, and partition layout. Win2kAS is also very particular about the BIOS options...

    powerpoint, publisher replacement programs

    I hope you have a high speed connection. OpenOffice really is a fantastic suite (www.openoffice.org) but the d/l is ~100meg.

    SuSe Linux 8.1 Question

    KDE might be a little too resource hungry for a 166. That doesn't prevent you from using Xfree86. Xfree86 by itself isn't much to look at. You will need a window manager. A small (~180k) and friendly window manager is 'blackbox'. An even smaller (~90k) window manager is 'ude'...

    Remote x-win, terminal sessions

    At a shell prompt type "man xinit" and "man startx". You need to start the xserver and enable it to listen on a tcp port. When you xinit on the client machine you simply need to give it the port number. Most applications will attach to the xclient so there is no need to do...

    Dual booting LINUX 8.0 and Windows 98?

    I have no idea how you're booting the slave drive by default (unless that's in your BIOS). Ensure that the prompt option is enabled in your lilo.conf. This usually goes well with the single-key option. Set the delay and the timeout to reasonable values. After the image= section which defines...

    Sendmail Woes

    Sendmail may be using custom methods for checking the hostname. If sendmail doesn't know about the availability of the nameserver or how to properly query the nameserver it will choke. Installing sendmail from source is tricky. Installing sendmail from a .deb package is easy. I don't use...

    Truble installing RedHat Linux 8.0

    You haven't provided much information. There are many reasons why a video driver may crash. Try installing just the core components of the system. Don't install the additional applications until after your core system is up and running. Detailed documentation at www.tldp.org

    Freeze

    I have the same problem using a Radeon 7500 with XFree86 4.3.0. The problem goes away when I obtain development drivers. Development drivers are available at dri.sf.net. These drivers work well but are unable to use a virtual size of 1600x1200 in combination with a Dell P990 monitor. I...

    Installing Ethernet card

    The best thing you can do is ditch RedHat and go with Debian. To install an NIC you need to have the appropriate driver available to the kernel. Most Linux users will compile their own kernel and manually ensure that the proper drivers are available. Once the kernel has been compiled...
