[Fwd: qmail]

Hello Friends,
I am pretty new to Debian Linux. I have installed Debian 1.3.xx on a
100 Mhz Pentium PC.
But I am unable to start openwindow. I have installed the olvwm *.deb
package with the help of dpkg
and xserver etc. before that. But somehow I am not able to start
openwin. The message I get is

xterm: no available ptys.

My question is do I have to insatll ptys. If yes then where do fidnd the
(which package).
I will thankful if someone could help.

Thanks in advance.

The file has been corrupted while downloading.  You can try replacing
all sequences of 0D 0A by 0A (e.g. by using dos2unix or similiar
programs).  This worked for all files I downloaded using Netscape for
Windows, it seems it sometimes does a LF->CR/LF replacement even on
binary files downloaded with the "Save as..."  option.
