Adding a user to the "disk" group is a bad thing, try looking in the mail

Is there anything for Linux that provides at least some of the
facilities of Powerpoint?

Hi

from mandrake). everything seems very nice but I'm having a problem with
dselect. it doesn't install from cdrom. if I run 'apt-get install
gimp-manual' it will install it from the cd, but if I select it from
dselect it asks me

Is there something useful logged in /var/log/daemon.log, while trying
to talk?

Does anyone know if the fs in Grub allows the kernel to load his
necessary fs as modules? I.e. if Grub contains a an ext2 fs, can the
kernel load modules from this file system even if the ext2 fs isn't
compiled into the kernel?
Or since the fs in Grub probably also needs the corresponding drivers
Xemacs has it's own packaging system for upgrading component packages.
Does using it compromise the debian system and foul up any future
apt-gettery I might wish to try?
I feel sure there must be a "Debian way" on this - any suggestions?

Hi there,
I'm using Debian woody almost exclusively on my box, but I still
have a Win98 Partition, primarly to read those wacky .doc files
with crazy formatting that StarOffice just can't read right.
The thing is, Windows used to access 3 drives when it was
installed.
C: which is /dev/hda1, which

Depends on the bitrate and encoder quality of the first encoding. You lose
quality by reencoding alone, and if you normalize it before reencoding you
theoretically lose a little more quality.
