Part way through the boot scripts, the bottom half of the
text mode display suddenly goes black and stays that way. The screen isn't
compressed; the messages that have already scrolled to the top half are
still there, but all the message

If the user logs in from a text-mode screen, .bash_profile executes

concatenating the user name and host FQDN, when the From: header contains an

in the manual, there is no way to turn this

Under Etch, an ordinary user can't start the windowing system.

You have narrowed down the bug. The lpr command installed by etch
belongs to the lpr package, not to cupsys-bsd. Nevertheless, the Etch
cupsys package shows cupsys-bsd as a

This is a preliminary report. I can do more detailed tests and file
a new bug report, if desired.
A quick test with debian-installer on floppies, which uses a 2.4.27
kernel, shows that the Tulip board works with two 3C905B boards also
present, if I unload the de4x5 driver and load
If the target machine is configured with two identical 3C905B
boards:
eth0 gets assigned to IRQ 11 and shared with uhci_hcd:usb1.
eth1 gets assigned to IRQ 10 and shared with cs46xx.
With two 3C509B boards installed and configured, the kernel can also
assign an IRQ to one ISA-PNP
Package: linux-image-2.6.15-1-686
Version: 2.6.15-8
Unlike kernel-image-2.6.8, this kernel does not leave enough IRQs
available for ISA boards.
The test machine has hardware configured as a 3-port Ethernet router
and firewall. It works as intended under a stock Sarge distribution

This doesn't make any sense to me. I'll see if I can get an answer
from Comcast as to why it's doing this.
