- I'm using HJs setup on my machine, and I noticed that if you try to
- cat a binary file, then you lose the keyboard mappings, and all
- the keys seem remapped to non alphanumeric characters. Has anyone
- lese noticed this?
- Also ps does not work. Any help please?
-
- I'd also appreciate pointers to a few questions I have.
- 1. If I do a man in X it bombs with the message that it cant find two
- progs, tbl and eqn. Can someone tell me what to do. I've got the main
- pages, but its such a pain reading them via more.
-
- 2. The same thing but man (not in X) fails saying it can't find the
- libc file. Help?
-
- 3. Does HJs setup come with a debugger? If so what is it called. I'd
- like an X version if there is one. If not, where can I get hold of
- one?
-
- Thanks for a great OS.
- JJ
- P.S. I ran paranoia last night, and it reported no problems, rating
- maths Excellent.
