My daughter accidentally spilled a glass of water, some of which (I don't know how much) hit the keyboard. After several days of drying out it is mostly back to normal. It no longer thinks that keys are being pressed which have not been touched, but the "2", "~" and "DEL" key are not yet functioning. I hope they will yet work, but I'm not sure. There's probably some cleaner you can use that will displace the water to prevent corrosion on contacts, but I don't know about the membrane under a modern keyboard: perhaps it gets waterlogged and you need a hairdryer? On an old IBM model M, I used contact cleaner to get out hot chocolate. However, they have actual switches. Doug. To clean any keyboard I pop off all the keys CAREFULLY with a flathead screw driver and wipe down all the keys and the base of the keyboard. Please note to put the keys back perfectly onto the base buttons, also keep an image of a keyboard or something in case you forget the keyboard layout.

Re: kernel-headers-2.2.19pre17
Sorry to bother you all again, This is what I get out. I have tried looking everywhere on the net and cannot find the headers. I would recompile my kernel so I have the headers that fit, but I am not that good. Something keeps the kernel from booting, maybe it is to big. >>apt-get install kernel-headers-2.2.19pre17 >>Reading Package Lists... Done >>Building Dependency Tree...

Re: kernel-headers-2.2.19pre17
Thanks bob, I have the exact same installed. Funny my uname -r returns 2.2.19pre17. /etc/netlock/nlvcard.o was compiled for kernel version 2.2.19pre17-compact while this kernel is version 2.2.19pre17. Anyway, does anyone have this netlock VPN client for linux running? Or has used free S/WAN to talk to a Nortel VPN server, probablly not :( mike --- Bob Thibodeau <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On my system, > > apt-cache search kernel-headers > > shows (among others) > > kernel-headers-2.2.19pre17-compact > kernel-headers-2.2.19pre17-idepci > > you probably want one of those > > Bob > > On Thu, Apr 18, 2002 at 11:27:47AM -0700, James > Michael DuPont wrote: > > Sorry to bother you all again, > > This is what I get out. > > I have tried looking everywhere on the net and > cannot > > find the headers. > > I would recompile my kernel so I have the headers > that > > fit, but I am not that good.

Re: kernel-headers-2.2.19pre17
If it helps anyone, I have done the following : 1. got my CDs back :=) 2. installed the KERNEL SOURCE of 2.2.19pre17 apt-get kernel-source-2.2.19pre17 that gives me the headers as well!!!
