wrong, rcS.d is run once at boot
So, the steps then would be the same? I mean,
1. make menuconfig
2. make-kpkg clean
3. make-kpkg kernel_image?
Or is it necesary to do make-kpkg kernel_source,
with subsequent dpkg -i kernel_source.deb? looping then back to
number 1. above?

Kernel 2.4.0 was declared stable yesterday I believe, a couple of

2. Can we use make-kpkg (kernel package) with the linux-2.4.0.tar.gz

What if you don't know the size, say, you are trying to burn someone's

That's probably because Debian uses(at last check) 2.2.1
I found that I had a spare 1Gb partition, and using a rescue disk managed to
copy accross what I could of the damaged disk. Unfortuantely, that's meant I've
lost some network option files and some of the run-levels directories have
vanished (/etc/rc0.d, /etc/rc6.d/ went, as did /etc/network/option

Hello everyone,
I'm using kernel 2.4.0-test12.
I need to compile the drivers for my nvidia card and they call
"get_module_symbol" and "put_module_symbol" which I cannot find.
I did a quick search on the web but I found nothing about test12...
If anyone could tell me how I can get a patch or s

One of our profs bought a Dell 8100 Pentium 4 for home use and he
wants to install Linux on it. He would like to install Debian, but
he says that Debian doesn't support the Pentium 4 yet. Is this true?

I just noticed the Glibc 2.2 is now in testing. As I understood it
this was one of the things that needed to happen before X 4.x
went in. Does anyone know how soon this might happen?
Thanks for any info.
If you are printing locally I would suggest pdq and xpdq. Read about them on
www.linuxprinting.org You can apt-get them from unstable and I think testing.
If you just make a sym link called lpd pointing to pdq alot of things work very
well.

If you can replicate the old bug, file a bug report and state

Perhaps we should close this discussion. I found a page about SI
prescriptions at:
http://physics.nist.gov/cuu/Units/binary.html
but I have never read any document using that convention. It says:
1 mebibyte = 1 MiB = 2^20 B (=byte)
Bit is always written out.

I don't like sunrpc hanging out at all exposed to the world. I get probed
regularly on it. Block it out with /etc/hosts.deny the following way:
PORTMAP : ALL
I usually install ipchains on my box and then block out the ports I don't want
exposed with:
ipchains -F #remove all the rules, the defaul

Hi there
I was wondering why there are some small packages that are not upgraded even
when a new release that fixes some bugs and doesn't bring any new
incompatibilities is out?
I was thinking of xqf, qstat or mozilla for instance
On the other hand, some very important packages that are likely
