I see that firefox-esr has a
security update. It is only
for Stretch. What are we
Jessie users to do?
Sorry for the double post.
Ran df -hT, and along with the usual partitions there's this:
/dev/block/8:3 ext4 12G 4.1G 7.3G 36% /
I have never seen that before. What is it?

OSX's diskutil to create a 120 GB partition formatted fat32. Ran the
netinst installer. created 3 partitions, root, home and swap. So the

Running stable, kde and network-manager-gnome. The modem/router
provides two wireless network options - one 2.4 GHz, the other 5.
However, net/mgr only picks up the 2.4 - the 5 doesn't show at all. I
thought maybe the 5 signal wasn't strong enough, so I moved the laptop

Sometime ago, I switched to OpenDNS using the resolvconf program. I now want
to switch back to the default DNS provided by the gateway - 192.168.1.254,

I can't get to a console from X. I.e., alt-ctrl-f1, 2 get me only a
black screen with no prompt. The same thing happens if I try "console login"
from kdm. inittab is the default. Graphics driver NVidia 173.14.09. Any
hints, pointers, appreciated.

In the last few days, Realplayer won't play any files in a browser. At
CSPAN, e.g., neither the embedded videos nor the standalone option will
run. Realplayer is called, but nothing happens. Video at the BBC also
will not play, either plugin or standalone.

In order to install vmware, I need linux-headers. I'm running the
2.6.20 kernel, self-compiled. Etch offers only 2.6 & 2.6.18, of
various sorts. Am I stuck, or am I overlooking something obvious?
