First of all, upgrading from slink to potato is quite a lot of changes. The
system is going to update about every package on your machine.
I beleive E 16 requires a lot of things in potato, so no getting around
upgrading.

It should already be loading, you might find a bunch of errors in your
.xsession. it appears there is some bug in loading gnome-panel when you load
it the first time. Other times seem to work.

Hmm, you'll have to use isapnp for it. I know there is a awe howto out there
also. Another thing is to check the kernel docs. There is some awe stuff in

much easier. I hear alsa is better, but if you don't need its "bettern

How is this not proper? I mean, if you are using vt100, then setting the
environment variable to vt100 should be the proper way. Am I missing

Okay, I seem to have found a work around, but how can I fix it properly?
When I telnet into Debian w/CRT and I type: set | grep TERM, i get:

If I do: export TERM=vt100, emacs and dselect work fine. Without doing this,
emacs and dselect get garbled after using them for a bit and don't
Is it possible to stop dselect from asking "Do you want to erase the

already. I'd rather have it default to no! I keep pressing enter and nuking
