The kernel patch "worked" but I have to manually change arch/i386/config.in and arch/i386/kernel/apm.c (The latter was a "bit scarey" as there were additional lines of code in there which I do not understand! Looks like magic hardware cookies.) When I tried the installation of Win4Lin, I got an rpm conflict from the installation script. $ sh install-win4lin.sh file /usr/bin/charconv from install of Win4Lin-4.9.2f-1 conflicts with file from package pgp-2.6.3i-140 The Win4Lin package install failed. Trelos have requested copies of the log files in /var/win4lin; which didn't get created as the rpm failed.

I'm having a BITCH of a time getting it to work, and really am coming to a crunch. I need to allow a Windows 95 client to access the Apache server via either FrontPage or WebFolders in order to publish webpages. After talking with the developers, I don't need FP Extensions, (Thanks for the info and thoughts, everyone who sent 'em) I just need to allow them to publish from their systems. Thanks, Geordon

I believe I read that at the KDE info page. I did not discard it; it's sitting on root's desktop. If I reinstall I bet I will get problems with Kword. Kword has been working quite well since I removed it! I still get an occasional crash but the KDE 2 enviornment seems better behaved. I will put it back and see what happens. Jonathan
