Hi Shriramana,
So somebody tell me how I exit from an X Windows Session to a pure text session.
... what should that be good for if you can do anything within a normal terminal window?
Well, James offered to teach me how to do these things on the command line. In fact, I'm a keyboard guy, not a mouse guy. So I'm okay with doing stuff on Konsole, so long as I know the commands and stuff. Sometimes it's faster too, but I need to get experienced. This is the first time I'm running a real working Linux system, and staying with it for so long.
... if you're not a mouse-guy then why do you want to use that rat in the first place?
I need to delete a directory called floppy_1 under /media.
... open a terminal window and do this: su cd /media rm -rf floppy_1 I for one can do this faster with a shell than with something clickable. Tip: Learn how to use bash's "tab" name extension feature. You'll live it
BTW whenever I hit reply, it by default goes to the sender. Isn't there a way I can make it to default to the list? I'm using SeaMonkey Mail on Win XP (for now - I still haven't configged my ADSL USB Modem on SuSE 9_3.)
... that's easy: First drop XP. ;-) Then, always hit "reply all", remove the original sender from the "To:" field and move the list's address from the "CC:" field to the "To:" field. Do that with every answer and make it go to the list. It's not that hard to use a computer, isn't it? -- cul8er Paul paul.foerster@gmx.net
