Hi, Has anybody had experience with installing Frontpage Extensions with the Apache Web Server on SuSE 6.0? Could you elaborate on the process, and how difficult it was to do?

[SuSE Linux] What is your opinion...(a bit off topic?)
by paspartu＠uni.net 25 Feb '99

25 Feb '99

Hi all, I made a tcl/tk gui to create a browseable copy of one, or more sections, of a remote WWW site. I called it GURL (Get URL), but since my english is not very good I am not so sure that "GURL" is a polite word. In italian it means nothing, I just like the sound. This tool is free and is in alpha stage. You can download it from <A HREF="http://adriatico.prisma.rm.cnr.it/~maurizio/gurl.html"><A HREF="http://adriatico.prisma.rm.cnr.it/~maurizio/gurl.html</A">http://adriatico.prisma.rm.cnr.it/~maurizio/gurl.html</A</A>> there are some screenshot, too. I would like to receive your feed-back, about the name and about the tool.

[SuSE Linux] Hard Disk Problem
by lhedrin＠SSG.PETsMART.com 25 Feb '99

25 Feb '99

<ADDRESS>Title: Hard Disk Problem</ADDRESS> Has anyone had a problem where Linux crashes because, it can not read the Hard Drive. I have a Maxtor 4.3, Split up in to 2gig, 1.3 Meg, and the 1.3 meg Swap, and the rest for Linux. I can install the 5.3 Office version, however whenever I try to boot, the system crashes saying that it can not read /dev/hda. At this time, I think that I have to do a low level reform for the entire drive, which means=get another HD). I think that it is because I have used the Fat32 FS or because, I have enabled Large Disk Support on the HD for windows. Either way, I have worked all weekend end and I have not been able to resolve this issue. I have tried Caldera, Slackware 96 and all of the distributions seems to be behaving the same way. Slackware actually booted up one time, but on the next boot the same problem. I am at a loss. I am thinking that I need to get a something like Partition-Magic or something like that in order to fix the Hard Drive. But, I thought that I should ask for opinons first Les

[SuSE Linux] Sickly Netscape Colours Gone
by dominic_mcdonald_aveyard＠yahoo.com 25 Feb '99

Hello again, Thanks for the help! I managed to fix it by removing the account, and making it over again. I ran Netscape and it looks the way it should. Weird. Maybe its because I had changed the login name on htat account, it did behave strangely after that. Oh well, works now :-) Well, I'm hoping 4.5 will perform a little better than 4.05... Cheers!

[SuSE Linux] Rewritable CD's
by abrahams＠valinet.com 25 Feb '99

25 Feb '99

I'm probably not the only one around here who has a CD writer that's capable of handling rewritable CD's. The CD Writing and CDROM Howto's don's say anything about them, though. I assume that the way to use them is to put one in the drive and then call mkfs - right? But what would be the right parameters for mkfs?
