try apt-setup for alternative apt servers; and for unofficial (not fully integrated by the debian.org team -- but they're working *.deb packages nonetheless) try the ones listed at http://directory.google.com/Top/Computers/Software/Operating_Systems/Linux/Distributions/Debian/APT_Sources/ http://directory.google.com/Top/Computers/Software/ Operating_Systems/Linux/ Distributions/Debian/APT_Sources/ or just http://www.google.com/search?q=unofficial+debian+sources.list also see the apt-get intro at http://newbiedoc.sourceforge.net/ -- I use Debian/GNU Linux version 3.0; Linux server 2.4.20-k6 #1 Mon Jan 13 23:49:14 EST 2003 i586 unknown DEBIAN NEWBIE TIP #6 from Will Trillich <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> : How do you keep text from SCROLLING BY TOO DAMN FAST? :) Before pressing the ENTER key of a command that you know will generate a lot of output, "pipe" it through your pager: ls -lR | pager locate tgz | pager grep -r pattern /home | pager You can also try <SHIFT>-<PAGE-UP> to scroll back. This works both at the console and in rxvt/xterm windows. Also see http://newbieDoc.sourceForge.net/ ... -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
