- Hi !
-
- I installed the whole SLS package linux 0.96c + X11R5 and I've 3 problems:
-
- - I'm just a froggy so I want my french keyboard working, I've edited the main
- Makefile in the kernel subdir in order to specify a french keyboard. But I run Make
- everything get out of control. Many many errors like Incompatible pointer type in ... or
- Structure xxxx has no member yyyy and so on. I've tried to compile with cc or gcc 2.0 the
- result is the same except that the error messages differ. And it seems to me that I that I've
- no all the include files or they are at a wrong place....
-
-
- - Secondly, when I use mount I get the message you must be a superuser even if i'm
- root !!! the most strange thing is that I can mount a floppy using the program menu which is
- a built in interface for system administrating and other....
-
- - And finally, on some archive packed in a tar.Z file form any sources, I use the
- command: zcat xxxxx.tar.Z | tar xvf - the things begin in a good way and after a number of
- files untared I got the message broken pipe xxxx blocks proceeded etc ... And some files are
- missing....
-
-
- If someone could help I will apreciate that. I'd like very much linux and don't wnat to go
- back to DOS.
-
-
- many thanks.
