Dear list,
after my last upgrade I suddenly got a kde desktop with a mixture of German,
English and Dutch menus instead of (as configured in the setttings) German.
I could not change the language from the settings menu in KDE.

Hi Itay,
maybe it is a problem with the UUID. Just check on the new harddrive the file

If so, comment it out and set just an entry with /dev/sda1 (or whatever) fpor

Hi list,
I accidently deleted my inbox folder (I mean the special "inbox" aka

How can I get it back without messing with my settings and other folders?
Thanks for any help!

Just add the unstable repo to your sources.list, then do an "apt-get update"
and after this you can install pocketsphinx.
Either do "apt-get install pocketsphinx", or you can install any package by
doing "apt-get install somepackagename/unstab
I suppose, they are more in unstable. :)

I would try to mount it in a livefile system. Trinity Rescue Kit (TRK) comes
there in my mind. It has some tools, which might save and restore data. You
might also take a look at Recobery-is-possible (RIP), another fine rescue
system.

Maybe I described my problem not exactly enough. My English might be better.
Let me try again.
1. I have a running amd64 system, which is running 32-bit applications
perfectly (due to ia32-libs)
2. aptitude upgrade wants to deinstall ia32-libs, as there are dependencies in
i386 repo (ia32-libs:

Hi folks,
I am still fighting with multiarch. On my 64-bit system I have a several 32-bit
applications installed. Just to name the best known: skype and googleearth.
As they are 32-bit, I also installed ia32-libs and ia32-libs-gtk (and this
already for since a long long time).
Just to make cle
Hi folks,
just a little question. I am using spamassassin and bayes. The system is
telling me, that two processes "spamd" are running with each about 600MB. I
guess, this memory is forked and not 1,2 GB.
Anyway, 600MB seems pretty much memory for spamd, but as far as I googled, it
seems ok.

Dear package-teams,
please do not put everything to multiarch! Just let me explain, why I think
so.
As already reported here, many users (and me too) got into a lot of problems,
beccause the 32-bit nvidia drivers are now put into multiarch.
Doing so, several applications, like googleeearth,

there is also another bugreport by me from earlier times. But I guess, this
reason might be in older kernels, too. At the moment I am running kernek 3.5

Hi folks,
I would like to install wine on my pure 64-bit system. Wine is telling me,
that I need to add i386 architecture on it (dpkg --add-architecture).
Of course I need 32-bit libs.
But before I do this, I want to make sure, that under no circumstances, other
libs, that I need for wine (or
