Hi all,
After finally figuring out how to back up my e-mail files I now need to go
about putting them onto a CD. What I have here is just a folder with files
inside of it. I have some notes that I took at some point in front of me
about making a CD and DVD and before I use them I'd like to ask the
Hi all,
After reading the browser straw poll, I was influenced to try some of the
plug-ins listed. I installed: Adblock Plus 1.2.1, FlagFox 4.0.8, Flashblock
1.5.13, FlashGot 1.2, Leo Search 1.0.0, NoScript 1.9.8.69, and Readability

I want to say that there's scripts that do stuff like this, but
unfortunately I don't know exactly how to do this. Hopefully someone who
does will speak up. I would like to know more about these scripts and what
all they can do.

Hi, I asked a question a week or so ago about backing up e-mail. What I
meant was that I wanted to back it up to a CD. The responses I got talked
about backing it up to an IMAP server. Does anyone know how to back it up to
a CD?
First format the disk: fdisk /dev/* d n p 1 w
Then, mkfs.vfat -F 32 /dev/*1
(replace * with the device label which you can find from dmesg)

No. I might do a "apt-get install -t experimental inkscape" if the solution
it recommended was sane. Though, the backport shouldn't take much more than
ten minutes and it's the better re

Hi all,
I have several email accounts that I'd like to back up. I access them
through imap or webmail. I thought I could just copy over a directory on my

that I can't ssh into. How can I backup the email?

Could someone please provide me with directions for installing Debian from a

Is there an official way to request backports? Or, what is the easiest way
