Hi list,
I'm running Debian Jessie AMD64. I'm using RRDTool to create graphs of
my network activity. Do the byte counters in the `ifconfig` output
overflow? I imagine they have to at some point. What's the value at
which they overflow? Is it 2^64 bytes?
Also, is there a "better" way to access thi

I have been running a dual-boot linux / windows system on a
Toshiba laptop for several years. According to
/etc/apt/sources.list, the system is
wheezy, installed with binary 20140209-16:42.
When I turn the machine on, I get the usual GRUB
multi-boot display. The windows boot seems to be

This is a linux kernel problem created by whoever made the decision that
speakers must connect through the quarter-inch jack on the sound card by
default. A little more work must have been done to that end since
though I was able to connect usb speakers to a linux box and configure

apt-get purge gdm3 xdm
and then try to install gdm3 again and see how that goes...

OK, my fault.
A new jessie installation. Display problem so I tried to switch to xdm.
When this didn't work I tried to switch back to gdm3. No Go:
gdm3.serviceJob for gdm.service failed.
Looked for solution in man systemctl, found reset-failed command. Tried

Where would I find the location in a config file that uses the F10 key to open
a terminal file requester? It is blocking thne F10 key from getting to mc,
and making a single keystroke exit into a tedious at least 3 clicks of the
