U, no. Debian doesn't work that way. Are you sure you are on the

Well, that depends on your definition of "work". On my GeForce 4 I can

Well, if you've got a decent net connection, check out

Let me guess. You used alsaconf to configure alsa, right? I ran into
the same problem. If you edit your alsa config file (in
/etc/alsa/modutils) you will see the line that contains the snd_dac_etc
stuff, just delete the whole line and things should work.

Actually, you DON'T need the aalsa xmms plugin (which is good, since
it's no longer available, AFAIK). If you edit /etc/alsa/alsa-base.conf
there is a line near the top that says "startosslayer=false". Change
that to true and OSS programs just work automagically.

Hmmm. I've never used minicom, but if it has a way to log the session
you could (theoretically) uuencode the deb out to the screen and into
the log file...that would suck but should work. However, if she can

I think I've got this one...
/etc/X11/XF86Config ? That's for XF86-3, the nvidia driver is for
XFree-4 only. Either upgrade to woody or hunt around for potato
packages for XFree-4, I know they exist somewhere.

Understabable. I've found the autofs documentation to be a bit hard to
follow also, but I did eventually figure it out. You can't have a mount
point of "/", so use something convenient like "/mnt", however, you can
then set up a symlink so that it looks like it's at /. Try this:
In /etc/auto.ma

Also, you could use something like webmin-ssl which comes with a java
ssh client. Install that on the machine you need to get to and reach it
securely from anywhere that you have a web browser.

rm -- --absolute-paths would work also. The "--" says that you are done

The way I did it was to install the tarball from java.sun.com (into

java-virtual-machine-dummy. These are packages the satisfy dependencies
