Then they claim that a browser which parses it correctly is broken. Grrrrrrrrr. -- MJR

Re Progeny

I have the `Linux Emporium' Disks for Progeny, but I did'nt manage to get it to install, as once past the initial stage, I could'nt get it to display, of course there may well be something wrong with the resolution `thingy' in my monitor. I also understand from a review that it will only install an american keyboard layout. Not very helpfull I know, but it's the best I can do. I am also rather puzzled as to why messages 3, 4, 5, 7 & 8 are somewhat wider than my screen. is this another manifestation of the =20 phenonmena? John

I think that it always was - there seemed to be the right sort of things in the various /proc directories. It was the final step of mounting the emulated SCSI that seemed always to fall over before I moved to kernel 2.4.6. Gerald.

Oh yes, it does all the groovy things my other system does, stopping the daemons etc... then it seems to start up again into the login prompt, or after a lot more shutdown commands, puts me into the $BASH prompt. (as opposed to <ricardo@Azathoth>$ type prompt). I'll try old nuTTer's -h flag idea, and keep ya posted -- Get your free email from www.linuxmail.org Powered by Outblaze

If the card is recognised and configured correctly you will get a high beep followed by a low beep at startup i think. try here: http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/PCMCIA-HOWTO.html >2) When I issue a Shutdown Now command from the shell, it shuts down and I get a $BASH >prompt. Does it not get as far as a "power down" message? Jenny.
