Greetings, Currently, I am attempting to tune /etc/X11/XF86Config for a CTX 764MT. If anyone has xf86 working on a CTX, what did you use for your monitor settings within XF86Config? Also, what video chipset are you using? My best attempts to date have been with NM2093; but it's very difficult to

Hello, I am having difficulties installing ssh via dselect. I'm using apt and pointing it at http://http.us.debian.org but I can't find all of the pieces I want. Could somebody please tell me where to find a list of sources for /etc/apt/sources.list (particularly sources that house the non-us dist

compiling perl scripts

Hello, I am trying to speed up a perl script. So I am trying to byte compile it, however, the resulting "c" code (from perl -MO script.pl) has some header files that I don't have (EXTERN.h, perl.h, patchlevel.h, and cc_runtime.h). Any ideas what packages might have these? Or any general pointers i

going full duplex

Hello, I'd really like to go full duplex but I don't know how to go about this aside from: "reinstalling my nic's driver but set it for full duplex this time". If anybody has a good way of going about this please let me know. I fear that it is all very dependent on what type of nic I'm using; but

Re: Mozilla doesn't run under Woody

I had the same problem; for a kludgey work around that at least gets mozilla "working", try removing (or renaming) your ~/.mozilla directory and rerunning mozilla. If anyone has a better fix please let us know. Mozilla is a HUGE resource hog! Kevin "Pedro I. Sanchez" wrote: > Hello, > > I'm ru

I just had this problem, it's a pain but you don't have to rebuild your entire system. I think it's a bug but it is too low level for me to characterize very well. Anyway, this should help (it saved me from having to reinstall): http://lists.debian.org/debian-user-0009/msg04260.html krafty P

Hello, This is probably more of a solaris question than a debian one but I'm certain that some fellow debian users have encountered this same problem: When telneting (from a debian box ;^) ) into a solaris box with a ksh defaulted account, I lose usage of my backspace and arrow keys. I've found

ldconfig

Through some amazingly reckless use of dselect, I've managed to remove ldconfig from my machine. Now I find myself in a seemingly bootstrap-ish position: dpkg is erring out that it can't find ldselect important packages are broken (half installed or half configured); stuff like stuff like libc6,
