Hamm --> Slink: 1. Compose-key lost 2. X11-display problem

Hallo, Last night I "upgraded" my mixed hamm/slink/potato system to a slink-based system. Everything is working satisfactorily now except for the two problems mentioned in the subject line. 1. I cannot get the compose key working again in console mode. When this happened in my previous upgrade

ipmasq

Hi, I'm having a bit of trouble with the ipmasq package... I just upgraded it from 3.3.2 to 3.3.3 and my network quit working. Running /etc/init.d/ipmasq start produced several 'cut: command not found' and 'sort: command not found' errors. I traced it down to the /etc/ipmasq/rules/A00path.rul

I want to thank everyone who replied. I'm sorry it took so long to get back to this, but tonight is the first night that I've been able to play :) I've consulted the Sound-HOWTO, the SoundBlaster-HOWTO, the Kernel-HOWTO, and various emails from the arhives and Dejanews. Yet I still have no sound.

lp not printing

Ever since I installed Debian slink, I have not been able to print. I had been using Magicfilter under the previous version with no problems. Now, I can print, as root, if I send directly to /dev/lp1, but anything else fails. I had uninstalled and reinstalled everything associated with the prin
