I don't know. Never done it. So its not just adding one line to an existing filter, its learning how to run a filter in the first place. I only get a few direct spam per week so it hasn't been worth it. Most of the spam I get is the stuff from the debian lists. Doug.

linux.debian.* are mail to news gateways to the lists.debian.org mailing lists. Usually, that message is sent when you post to linux.debian.* without first subscribing to linux-gate@lists.bofh.it linux-gate appears to be experiencing a few problems atm. -- Any technology distinguishable from magic is insufficiently advanced.

Everything seems fine with one exception: the Euro symbol doesn't display in my xterms (under fvwm). If I go with iceweasel to http://www.unics.uni-hannover.de/nhtcapri/multilingual1.html a Euro symbol is nicely displayed. If I copy and paste the symbol into a file, and run od on it, I get the octal sequence 342 202 254. This is presumably the UTF8 code for the Euro symbol. I can also generate the code by feeding groff the code "\(Eu". Unlike iceweasel, though, the xterm doesn't display the Euro symbol. (In general, I think it displays only those symbols that were defined in ISO8859-1, although I am testing the UTF8 codes for those symbols. It does not correctly display the ISO8859-1 codes unless I convert them to UTF8 with iconv.) Xorg.0.log shows some errors about non-existing directories under /usr/share/fonts/X11, and then sets FontPath to: /usr/share/fonts/X11/misc, /usr/share/fonts/X11/100dpi/:unscaled, /usr/share/fonts/X11/75dpi/:unscaled, /usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1, /usr/share/fonts/X11/100dpi, /usr/share/fonts/X11/75dpi The problem is likely in my old ~/.fvwm2rc, which shows: Style * Font -adobe-times-bold-r-*-*-18-*-*-*-*-*-*-* There is no adobe-times font on my system, so I don't know what font is being substituted, or which font I should substitute. So how do I find a default font for my xterms that will display the UTF8 Euro symbol? Thanks.

Ideally I was looking to resolve the problem on my Etch, and Lenny installs. Someone I know on the LAU list has just mentioned 64studio. Annoyingly the full install is only available on dvd for i386, and I can't burn dvd's. I'll have to try the live cd version. It would be nice to fix realtime on Etch, and Lenny though, and it looks like I'll have to get my hands dirty, and attempt to compile a kernel using the realtime patches. Nigel.

I just discovered that "xfontsel -print" does show the string above as a choice, even though I can't identify a font file anywhere with a similar name. In any case, the font displayed by xfontsel is definitely not the same as the font used by my xterm.

I'm not a Sid user, but evidently you have to install linux-patch-rt and apply it to the kernel source. I don't know what rtirq is, but look at that one too.

usually such problems have to do with the differences of the environment (bash variables) - you can customize the env. of cron to overcome this problem

Any references to XFree86 are outdated if you're using Etch. The Debian Reference was written for Sarge (which I'm glad of because I'm still using Sarge). Try this: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg

Windows XP will overwrite the MBR of the first drive listed by the BIOS (th= e=20 one that is booted), so set the BIOS to boot from whatever drive you want= =20 Windows to replace the MBR of. When you're done installing, switch it back= ,=20 boot Debian, and set up grub to boot Windows with 'chainload'. Back up your MBR first though. And: when I set up grub to boot Windows onc= e=20 for someone else, I found grub's 'hide' command and used it to hide the Deb= ian=20 partitions, thinking that the less Windows saw, the better. But Windows (X= P),=20 when those partitions were 'hidden' by grub, changed the partition types to= =20 Amoeba (whatever that is) and then grub would give an error on the next boo= t. =20 Of course, problems like that should be expected when running Windows on a= =20 system. --BOKacYhQ+x31HxR3 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: Digital signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFG/+9k9XC8Sh1vpNARAuCOAJ9N4PABL9ugoUIh84P75pbV2+rIrwCfUPLi Gkomecm4EiecxDUjtln83fg= =9y0B -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --BOKacYhQ+x31HxR3--
