Hi,
To turn off the sunrpc/portmap daemon (or whatever it's called) in potato you
can
just do an 'update-rc.d -f portmap remove', and '/etc/init.d/portmap stop'.
Then it

Hi friends,
again some funny things happen with the QT.
First there seems to be a dependency conflict between qt1g 1.44-6.3 and
qt2. Suddenly they share the same libqimgio.so.0. Sorry, did not check,
if they are the same.
Next. Of both qt1 and qt2 appeared two conflicting versions: libqt and
qt.
I know that as a matter of policy, Debian doesn't announce release
dates in advance, but can someone give a *hint*? Is the potato
release even frozen yet? I mean, I heard that the only problem
remaining was a Perl tweak months ago, so surely it's getting close to
done, right?

Perl script /usr/sbin/addgroup in potato dist seems
to have a bug. Anybody can explain me what is wrong?
I tried to understand the script line, but i have
no syntax errors.
Here is the result, after requiring to add a user to a

Thanks a lot to all who's responding to my questions regarding the Sun
Classic; I think with all the info I get, I can proceed installing the

BTW, on other threads, I have questions on RS/6K.

Hi,
I'm just wondering wheter Debian can be installed on RS/6K 42T; yes, it
