Re: using bootcd with usb cdrw drive

Just to know, have you devfs compiled in the kernel and mounted at boot ? are you sure the entry /dev/scd0 exists at boot-time ? what is the error message ? (i guess it's can't mount root fs on device XX:XX -> those numbers have a meaning you should try to interpret) -- I'm an occurence of the I

Re: intel fortran compiler

The answer seems strighforward : some of the object files and librairies were compiled for IA64. Of course you wont be able to get them to work on your IA32 box. I guess, you dont have the source of this compiler, only librairies and object files ? -- I'm an occurence of the I love GNU virus. Ple

Re: pppoatm

For pppoatm to work, you dont need a package actually. pppoatm support is in the kernel. (the pppoe package give you pppoe support in userland, but their is not such way of doing for pppoatm) you need : 1) a pppoatm kernel patch. It works well on all recent kernel versions (search google) 2) a spec

Re: Gnucash

speaking of gnucash, why have the debian packages been getting so old? should the libs upon which it depends hang around in the archives longer, or does the maintainer just need to rebuild it against the new libs more frequently? or is there a problem that keeps it from building against the new li

What are the dividing lines between 586 - 686 etc? I obviously know that a 386 and 486 are just that, but what about the Pentiums, PIIs, PIIIs etc? Thanks. --- Jerome Acks Jr <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > Hello all > > > > I recently installed debian potato 2.2 > > and

pppoatm

I see in the debian package list a pppoe package, but no pppoatm package. Is this likely to continue to be the case? This package is needed for us in the UK who want ADSL from British Telecom. Being British they decided to be different and use ppp over ATM - rather than the seemingly more commo
