Seems like this version of grub does not have "setup" as a command.
I'm running potato now, so guess I've to get grub 0.5.96.1 from testing.

Unfortunately, no, it doesn't. It comes with pg_ctl, which is as far as I

Good evening everyone,
This is my first experience with upgrading from one version to another.
I love the debian apt-get tool; for routine upgrades and keeping my system in
top order with security updates it has been the greatest help.
The upgrade from "stable" to "testing" has not been fun
Does the source distribution come with the file bin/postresql-startup
in the PGHOME directory? In the debian distribution, this script is
called by /etc/init.d/postgresql and handles startup based on the
configuration file.

hi james,
yes, the most commonly used pci drivers are the 3com vortex/boomerang,
the dec tulip and the intel etherexpress pro 100.
the problem is that there's a register on these cards, the general purpose

bit differently.
You need to be in 16-bit color, otherwise DRI on a V3 doesn't work. I don't

Hi Xucean,
I do a lot of my stuff in console mode (without
x running). I like having mouse to cut/paste stuff here
just like I do when I am using an editor under x. I set up
my systems x server to use gpmdata and have never had mouse
problems in either x or console.

I have downloaded and burned the Potato ISO's onto cd's but it will not
boot in the old CD-ROM drive of my laptop. Someone told me older drives
cannot read newer format ISO burns. Is there a way to address this?
Thank you

Well, I swapped out the RAM for some other RAM that I know is good. Ended
up with the same problem, but different packages. Now, it's some gmc and
gnome packages. This is driving me nuts. One of the reasons I went with
