User 'news' will not do cron job Hi, I am using Leafnode 2 on Slackware 12 and have a user 'news'. All is working well but for some reason news will not do the following cron jobs: 10 21 * * * /usr/sbin/texpire -vvv >/home/andrew/.texpirelog 2>&1 15 * * * * /usr/sbin/fetchnews -vvv >/home/andrew/.fetchnewslog 2>&1 But this works flawlessly... 23 Jan 2008 16:13

pthreads man pages Where are these guys, e.g. pthread_create? It looks like they were installed with glibc-2.3.6-i486-6 on Slack 11, but in Slack 12 and -current they're not there. (There's a /usr/man dir in the glibc package, but with nothing in it.) I have /usr/man/man7/pthreads.7.gz from the man pages package, but grep pthre... 23 Jan 2008 17:20

jslaunch? I'm looking for an app that I can run on my "server" so that when a particular button on a joystick is pressed, I can run a shell command. Any ideas? I've found jslaunch but I'm not sure if it worked. Articles that mention it seem to be a bit old, I've tried another app but it seems to only work on 2.2 kernel, e... 22 Jan 2008 13:28
Installing Slackware Linux 12.0 I purchased the official CD sets for Slackware Linux 9.1 (a few years ago) and Slackware Linux 12.0 with The Official Guide to Slackware Linux (a month ago). I just reinstalled Slackware Linux 9.1 on my old Dell Dimension L500r. No problems with this: I insert Disk #1 ("Installation"), boot bare.i, and everyth... 23 Jan 2008 16:47

I'd like build a script, which informs me, when some file in certain directory has been edited in my server. There is about 500 files, so I think it is too heavy to make a copy of them and make a file compare. ... 22 Jan 2008 22:24
