Hi,
I'm in the process of considering compute servers for a small HPC facility, and
I would like to run Debian wheezy on them. Until recently I would have opted
for Intel's Ivy Bridge based platforms, but with the advent of Haswell I'd like
to consider that as an option. Searching the web reveal

Hi All,
I am facing a rather peculiar issue. I installed Debian 5.0.4 on my laptop. The
basic network connectivity works fine, and the DHCP client daemon seems to have
picked up the right config info from my DSL router. But, anything related to
HTTP does not work - browser, WGET, etc.
This is
Hi,
I'm trying to write a udev rule to awaken a system-wide fetchmail daemon
whenever eth0 is brought up, but I'm lost about which event to capture.
Before udev, I did this in /etc/network/interfaces:
iface eth0 inet dhcp
post-up /etc/init.d/fetchmail start || true
pre-down /etc/init.d/
I wonder if someone has seen this and knows how to solve it. I've been breaking
my head against this problem for a fortnight without success.

Would anybody know how to enable APM on a 2.6.14-2-686 kernel ?

Sorry to bother everybody. I hadn't go
Hi All,
How do I tell gcc to use the debug version of glibc ?
I installed libc6-dbg but I just can't find out how to direct gcc to use
the debug version of the libraries. I searched gcc's manual and googled
around but couldn't find out what certainly should be a trivial command
line option.

Thanks, Lee. That's why 'grep -r ulimit /etc' couldn't find anything.

Apologies in advance for the basic question. I'm counting on the
