Anyone have any luck getting this family of new Intel RAID drivers working in
Debian Wheezy?
It uses the LSI raid controller:
LSI Logic / Symbios Logic MegaRAID SAS 2208 [Thunderbolt]
But the wheezy kernel's stock megaraid_sas driver does not seem to support this

I used emacs back when it was written in TECO and have used a few flavors
since. I'd *never* advise a new user to use emacs. They have enough to learn;
they don't need to double or

You didn't look very closely. Gnus works quite well for both news and
email and offers all the advantages of a newsreader such as groups,
killfiles, scoring, and threading. It is intended to be used for both.

Hi,
my new CUPS Server (1.4.4-7+sq) is not broadcasting any printer queues to
the LAN. The required avahi (dnssd) daemon is up and running. Avahi also
distributes printers that I have manually creates in the /etc/avahi/services
directory, but not the printers that have been configured in CUPS.

Hi,
Where can I find an uptodate description of exactly how PGP is used by APT
in packaging? I can't find the source any more but I got the impression
that the individual packages were not signed but merely checksummed and
that the list of checksums was the only thing that was actually signed.
