Sorry about the formatting issue. It's this bloody Netscape mail client. I
normally use the
the KDE desktop but I decided to give GNOME a try for this install with XFS.
There doesn't
seem to be a mail client with GNOME that I feel comfortable with.
Communicator's mail
client is a temporary fix until I find something better.
I tried to apply the patch you gave me but it don't work. I am using the 2.4.0
kernel patched
with the XFS code. Here is the output when I try to apply your patch.
[root@cedar linux]# patch -p1 < /home/juan/floppy.patch
patching file arch/i386/boot/Makefile
Hunk #1 FAILED at 27.
1 out of 1 hunk FAILED -- saving rejects to file arch/i386/boot/Makefile.rej
I tried from different locations in the source tree to no avail. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Juan.
