Hello...I've got FreeBSD 1.0.2 and XFree86 2.0 up and running on my 486DX/2-66
EISA machine (16MB RAM). I just tried to install mh-6.0 on it. The
only place I found this source was in a 386bsd-0.1 ports directory. It
installs okay and will handle the scanning of messages, etc., okay but
won't send them. Is there a newer source/port I could get somewhere? I
really prefer mh and would like to set it up. Also, how hard is it to
use multiple mail managers? Can only one be supported at once? (i.e.
could I have mh, mail, elm, and pine all on one system to please the
varrying tastes of other users?)
Next question: devices...how do I configure them? What are some good
books about this? I tried to add the snd_utils package but it wants
several devices that I can't figure out how to make. I have a
SoundBlaster Pro/2.
Is the QIC tape device that comes with 1.0.2 QIC-80 compatible? I heard
something about a different package for it...
Can anyone successfully using a Mitsumi CD-ROM please tell me how (I'd
also like to hear if it works for them under OS/2 2.1 and where to get
that driver).
Also, is there a fix for kermit...I got its binary package from
freebsd.cdrom.com but it hangs every time on SET LINE /dev/tty02
but works if I hit Ctrl-C to skip past that...*shrug*
Thank you in advance. Email is prefered.
