Re: /etc/network/interface file auto reset.

But that is not risk-free. What if the thing that's overwriting the file on startup dislikes not being able to write to the file and crashes? By the way, my solution would fail if the overwriting is happening after startup. signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

Re: /etc/network/interface file auto reset.

I have no idea how to solve the problem itself, someone else might help you there. But here's a way to bypass the problem by telling Debian to overwrite the file on each startup. It might work. Copy the file you want to preserve to somewhere else. In this example I've copied etc/network/interface

screen 0: in putty title bar

Hi Everyone, I'm in the process of moving from fedora to debian. But I have one question about the use of screen when I use it, the title bar in putty doesn't change like it does in fedora to show/remind me that I am in a screen, I was wondering how do I change this in debian ? Thanks Daniel

[Wheezy] PIL to Pillow migration

Hi all, Is there a recommended way to replace the PIL by Pillow (and also install Pillow without a previous PIL package installed) on a Wheezy box ? The Pillow documentation says that prior to install Pillow you have to remove the PIL ;

Re: Jessie and Systemd integration

Why do you refuse to install systemd-shim? Just because it has "systemd" in the name? Providing systemd-shim or similar is really about the only thing Debian can do about upstreams deciding to make their packages dependent on Systemd. The Gnome and KDE situations would be no different if Debian
