mailcap entry for viewing Doc and Excel files

Hi all, You can use these entries in your ~/.mailcap file for viewing msword and ms-excel document, which comes as mail attachments. Dependency: wv, html2text, xlhtml (these are available in debian archives http://www.debian.org/distrib/packages) Assumption: conf and example files of wv are in /usr/share/wv #FOR MS WORD application/msword; wvWare -x /usr/share/wv/wvHtml.xml '%s' | html2text; copiousoutput; description=Microsoft Word Document; print=wvWare -x /usr/share/wv/wvHtml.xml '%s' | html2text | print text/plain:- #FOR MS EXCEL application/vnd.ms-excel; xlhtml -c %s | html2text; copiousoutput; description=Microsoft Excel Document; print=xlhtml -c %s | html2text | print text/plain:- You can use any other alternative to html2text like lynx. I am using these settings and using mutt for reading mails. Its working very fine. and if you use "set autoview = yes" in ~/.muttrc, mutt will automatically display the files without asking you to open the file. regards -- Pankaj Jangid National Centre for Software Technology GnuPG Public Key: http://yugandhar.ncst.ernet.in/~pankaj/gpg.txt

linux on a P4
by abhijeetmore＠rolta.net 27 Mar '02

27 Mar '02

Hi, I just installed linux on our college P4. Red Hat 7.0. It was the first time I asked it to install 'everything'. On booting I found three images - linux, linux-smp, linux-up. I guess smp is self explained. But when I booted into the image called 'linux', it wouldn't probe the Hard disk IRQ correctly.It said: hda: IRQ probe failed .... Now when I booted into the image called 'linux-up' it did so without any errors. My initial guess at an explanation is that the kernels are processor specific. 'linux' is probably for generic 386s and 'linux-up' worked because it was for higher processors. In other words I suspect that the IRQ allotments in the two cases are different. Could somebody pl. confirm this or suggest an alternative explanation? Oh, and BTW I had asked for kernel 2.4 and 2.2 on a cd a few days ago. I've got them now. Anybody else requiring the same can get in touch with me. ciao abhijeet

Debug for Linux?
by Nikhil Joshi 27 Mar '02

27 Mar '02

Hi! I'm studying 8086 in Microprocessor II Usually we write simple programs using MS-Dos's debug "command" Is there a parallel Linux utility ? Also are there any assemblers like MASM TASM ? I would also like to clear some doubts: 1. In DOS we use interrupts like int 20,int 21 etc.. which perform certain tasks. Are these interrupts apllicable to Linux also? 2.In Assembly since we deal directly with CPU isn't it a security risk? (I have come across some debug routines which clear CMOS , destroy the hard disk partitions... !) 3.Why there r so many books written for Assembly Programming which are specific to Dos based Assemblers and debug? Is Unix implementation for Assembly Programming difficult ? Please enlighten. -- "I don't know which is worse, ...that everyone has his price, or that the price is always so low." -Calvin

Hi ppl, does anyone from this mailing list also subscribe to linux-india.org mailing list or knows anyone who maintains the site. Then you can help correct the following problem. If u goto the site www.linux-india.org and click on Bombay/Mumbai @ the bottom of the page , it takes you to the site http://bombay.linux-india.org/ which has the following text. <<< Welcome to jkyadav.com! This page is under construction. Please come back! >>> instead of taking us to the ilug-bombay site <www.ilug-bom.org> plz look into this problem. I have already sent a mail to the webmaster regarding this matter. Can someone help accelerate the change though?? --- vinayak hegde __________________________________________________________________________ http://dating.zeenext.com Log on to nextDATE.

Hello could you please help?
by George Ho 26 Mar '02

26 Mar '02

Dear Sir, I saw you posting in the message board, and would like to ask for your help. I am using redhat 7.l and ASUS P4S333 motherboard, which has a LAN card on board. I just can't successfully "insmod". Everytime when I "insmod sis900", it just said "No such device" I think for RedHat 7.1, the kernel is new enough not to compile the sis driver into itself, right? Therefore, what can I do now? Could you give me some hints? Thanks! George __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!

---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Mon, 25 Mar 2002 20:15:58 From: vinayak hegde <vinayak_hegde(a)hotmail.com> Let me introduce myself first. I am Vinayak V Hegde. I am currently studying in Final year computer engineering in parshvanath CoE,Thane. I got your email id from linuxusers mailing list @ ilug-bombay. I have just joined the list. It seems i have missed a lot from not being there on the list. I would be very grate ful if you could help me with the following issues. We have setup a linux diskless lab in our college consisting of 150 diskless terminals (with remote booting ) and 2 servers.( we did in around 2 months including the cabling and the physical connections. It took lots of trial and error to set it up). We are facing some problems getting a suitable 8086 emulator for linux (I tried pcemu but could not <make> it without errors). Also there are problems in procuring a cobol compiler. (we are using a tinycobol compiler currently but it is not good enough as it does not support all the features of the lang). Could you help us in this regard?
