I tried upgrading my woody system using apt-get, and I noticed that apt-get
produces the following strange output:
16 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 3 not upgraded.

I'm using the cdtool package to play audio CD's from my CD-ROM drive. For some
reason, playing CD's only outputs MONO sound (ie. only to one of my speakers).
It's not a problem with my speakers since .mp3 and .wav files plays as stereo
without any problems.
Is this a software problem or is it a h

I was just upgrading my potato system, and apt-get stopped when processing
bsdutils. There was an error message from dpkg:

Is there a way to clear the counters for the builtin chains' policies?

I installed esound and tried to get amp to work with esd... but I can't figure

I'm just wondering, is there a way for multiple (unrelated) processes to share

I'd like to have different programs that use DSP be able to share it. Is this
even possible??

Hi!
I'm running potato and just upgraded to the SVGA X server (3.3.4). I
discovered that it was *extremely* slow -- the screen repaints are very
noticeable and every time it repaints, it takes so much CPU that my background
MP3 player (or is it the sound driver) jitters horribly.

I'm currently running a Java servlet that I wrote on Apache JServ. I'm getting

I probably missed something obvious, but I can't figure out how to compile
servlets for Apache JServ. I have a file called `ServletTest.java' and that
imports the javax.servlet.* packages. When I type `javac ServletTest.java',
it complains that it cannot find the javax.servlet.* packages.

I'm running a system with a PNP network card that needs to be up before
/etc/init.d/network executes. I need to execute `isapnp /etc/isapnp.conf'
*before* /etc/modules is read by the kernel (since the network driver cannot
do anything until isapnp configures the network card).
So when is /etc
