Weekend spent messing with dselect and aptitude. I now have a usable-but-not-quit-comfortable system going.
Some queries: 1. I keep getting a 'fake start-stop daemon' error when I try to shut down (init 0 from root). It keeps scrolling across the screen and I have to shut off manually--which forces fsck the next boot-up (long time on a 60 G drive!). How can I fix? 2. Can't get wvdial to connect under user--have to use root. I've tried to chmod stuff, but I must be missing something because I keep getting an error 2 from pppd. Fix? 3. What script/file can I create in my user directory so I can control what window manager I am running? (gnome, kde, icewm). Currently, I have to run g/k/x(dm) from root. Thank you for your patience... BTW--I love aptitude, once I figured out how to use it! dpkg-reconfigure, though, is giving me problems; it either won't run or give me a 'laptop fan' error (BTW, I'm not on a laptop!). -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
