Actually, on Debian it´s so much nicer to install the kernel-package

Then you cd to the linux source, "make mrproper" and "make config" just
once, and then you can always rebuild your ker

Is anybody running pcmcia_cs on a 720CDT? Did you exclude irq 3 for the
internal modem in the config.opts for pcmcia?
Anybody know how to configure a particular devices irq? I've configured

I tried upgrading to 1.2 this morning, and I ran into this problem.
perl-base pre-depends on libdl1, which doesn't seem to be defined anywhere
(none of the lib* packages look like they provide it).
Dselect doesn't complain about this, but dpkg says it can't satisfy libdl1
and aborts the upgrade.
