Printtool is not available in debian 2.2. If you don't want to take
it from woody, magicfilter or apsfilter might be a good solution. I
use magicfilter and was very happy with the installation ease.

Hi all.
Is there a definitive document anywhere that describes how to compile pine
for Debian?
Every time I try to compile it, whether from the deb package or the
sources, I run into the same problems. And I still don't know how to fix
them. And the binary version doesn't work either.
Mind you,
I dont see what's wrong either! When I try and start any audio
application, it claims that either the hardware is not detected or its
busy. I am using GNOME -- could it be an ESD issue?

Well it sure didn't take to long to reach the limit of my knowledge. I
really don't know where to look to find what services are running. I found
a /etc/services file but that looked more like porting information (telnet
