Recently (last few months), about 7 Intel installs and 1 Sparc. My home machine in Debian Intel. Only the Palm isn't. Anyone want to set up a distribution poll page where we can all try to honestly log out distribution distributions? -- MJR

Re: [Alug] Apache mod_perl - Does it have the perl interpreter build into mod_perl or does it load it from elsewhere

Off the top of my head, I think it comes from the Apache guide to tuning mod_perl on their web site, but it was a long time ago. I hope that helps, but let us know how you get on. -- MJR Anglian LUG http://www.alug.org.uk/ No ePatents http://petition.eurolinux.org/ FSF Europe http://www.fsfeurope.org/

>can anyone tell me what to expect/what happens at the >meetings? If you have a brought along a box: rush in trailing wires, plug it all back together, network it up to any other boxes, and prepare to have your most tender secrets exposed to the anglian linux community ("What's THIS you've done to your php.ini file?") If you haven't: bring biscuits instead and eat them whilst watching everyone else being busy.

lilo startup crash(mandrake 8.0)
by Dryden 19 Nov '01

19 Nov '01

Finally i have a nice working email service that i can use in collage(as you can tell from my email addy ;-). I have messed about with the config file for lilo (/etc/lilo.conf). this was so that i could added my new kernel as the default for startup but now my Linux box just freeze after the time to select an option is up. It will boot up fine if i stop the countdown and select my option. Any one know what is wrong with this? It seems to mount my hard disk drives in its freeze time as it checks my hard drives(with fsck) when i next boot it properly. If you need to see my config file ill put it on my site and post a link to it, just mail me back and ask.
