Re: First mail from my Linux
Hi folks,
I would like to thank those who have replied to this thread and update you
folks on how the various suggestions have helped.
1) Xwrapper.config has been fixed by reconfiguring xfree86-common. The
interesting thing is that eventhough I specifed a 'nice' value of -10, the
xdm log warned that it had been overridden with a value of 0 and 'top'
showed XFree86 with a 'nice' value of -10.
2) As mentioned in an earlier mail, I am able to set font size and color for
xterm.
3) Demand dialing works. I have to do a 'pon' manually or through an exising
command script file. 'poff' is because now dependent on a specified value
in seconds. What is more user friendly would be as folows: when a webpage is
requested, the browser first looks into the cache, and fetch it if
available. If not, a window will pop out to request user to log in to the
ISP. When done, a small icon will appear to indicate a 'connected' state.
When this icon is clicked, a window will appear which indicates the baud
rate, the duration of connection and an option to disconnect. MS-Window user
will find what I haved siad familiar.
4) As for filesystem GUI, also mentioned in an earlier mail, because of
memory constraint, I may have to reconsider the packages suggested.
Again, thanks for all the suggestions
Cheers
