I don't have very good bandwidth, so I sometimes have connection troubles with such things as 'updates' and 'downloads'... so when I tried a "Edit > Reload Package Information" in Synaptic just then, I kept (3 times) getting failures. But here is the non-updated info for the package: Maintainer: Christian Kesselheim < ckesselh [at] debian [dot] org > Version: 0.98.38-1.2 However, doing a Debian search... http://packages.debian.org/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?keywords=nasm&searchon=names&subword=1&version=all&release=all ....reveals that you have reason to worry. Looks like somebody there "jumped the gun" (well, you didn't write a "Warning" in the File Notes, remember? :) Version: 0.99.01-1 Maintainer: Anibal Monsalve Salazar <anibal [at] debian [dot] org> > > Needless to say, I'm curious how easy - or not - you find it to get Nasm > running.

Nothing better than learning how it handles problems. What's the command to format a disk drive? About the only things I know somewhat are ls but I don't know how to get a directory listing where I see all the attributes and such. Or how to sort folders first or resort by filename with . and .. first. Lot of things like to work on for me. -- Jim Carlock North Carolina Swimming Pool Builders http://www.aquaticcreationsnc.com/

If an "unmentionable" OS already : exists there, just bomb it. :) I need to play around with the one that's 83% installed on the older system. It kept failing right around the 83% mark for some reason. There's a bad spot on the hard disk drive. Windows 98 got around it without too many problems. But Ubuntu seems to have some difficulties with it. : P.S. - [if my subliminal powers are still working] Now, go build an : Ark 200 cubits by 400 cubits. Gather all the animals two by two... The power of suggestion, heh? <g> Okay the details on this system: The hard disk drives... one13GB, one 4 or 5GB and one 1.7GB. The floppy disk drive is a 1.44 MB deal. The CD player is a Teac 32x or some such (not a DVD). The memory... 128MB The processor... AMD K2-350 2 Ethernet NICs (1 Intel, 1 3Com) 2 External parallel port disk drives 1 Microsoft Cordless Mouse (1997 model or earlier) 1 IBM 101-key keyboard Model M (October 4, 1989, Made in USA) 1 Elan Vital case with original power supply 1 Asus Motherboard 1 original Sound Blaster ISA sound card The first attempt to install failed. The second attempt failed. The third attempt failed. <g> The hard drives on that machine whistle. Windows 98 used to boot up fine, just took ten minutes to get through the anti-virus, load the fire walls and so on. It's once again at the 83% mark where it failed in the past. It seems to stop reading from the CD at this point and starts to do a lot of HDD reading/writing that lasts forever. I let it run for an hour on one attempt... So I need to learn some of the low-level hard disk analysis things that come with Ubuntu... any suggestions are appreciated.

You have no idea of "design", do you? Or maybe you never made the idea that an Assembly Source could have up to tenth of thousands of Labels?... "to be seen at a glance"... :)) Betov. < http://rosasm.org >

Probably the reason why all RosAsm users say that the search multiple features save them, at least, half of the developments times, isn't it? :) Betov. < http://rosasm.org > |
