easiest workaround for oom_adj to oom_score_adj transition (new kernels and kdeinit from KDE 3.5)

2012-10-12 Thread Arthur Marsh
Hi, I've stuck with KDE 3.5.10 as it does what I want, but the new kernels have removed support for /proc//oom_adj and insist on using /proc//oom_score_adj. The only part of KDE 3.5.X that uses /proc//oom_adj is kdeinit, but I have had no success so far in rebuilding it from source

Hi Debain Users, I'm at the final stages of Installing NOT Ubuntu but Debian 'Squeeze' on my dual-boot system. Windows is installed on the 1st hard drive (/dev/sda) and Debian will be installed on the 2nd hard drive (/dev/sdb). The installer is asking me where I want Grub installed. It says: -b
