Hi there. This may or may not be the best place to ask this, but I can't
seem to find help anywhere else, so I thought I would ask.
I have begun backing up my /home to a LUKS encrypted external hard drive
using rsync. I just got a second one external hard drive to do the same
thing with, however I

Hi all. I am using Debian Wheezy with Xfce4. After some testing with
different DMs, I decided to start X from a tty using "startx". I was
told in the Debian IRC channel that it works fine by just removing all DMs.
I enjoy using my computer this way, however I am unable to...

Following my previous question, someone recommended I build Chromium
from source. Is that possible to do on Stable? I tried to do it from
apt-get, but there were still dependency issues. Am I doing it wrong?
Should I be doing it another way?
If I remember correctly, I tried...
sudo apt-get source
I am running Debian 6.0.1 Stable on an EeePC, and my internal microphone
has never worked properly. Today I installed the squeeze-backports
kernel 2.6.38-bpo2-686 and it fixed it. However, now I have a few things
do not work.
virtualbox-ose, ndiswrapper, and the computertemp applet.

I have been looking for an operating system that would allow me to have
the latest browser, but the stability of Debian Stable, and I realized
that I just want to keep using Debian. I have looked into apt-pinning to
install Chromium 11 from Sid, however it has not worked for me.
I tried both doing

In my struggle to make Nvidia work with a new kernel, I deleted
/usr/src/linux. Is this bad? I had never used /usr/src in Ubuntu before,
but I am seeing that it has more of a use in Debian.
If I was not meant to delete it, is there a way to get it back?

I'm running Debian 6.0.1 stable on an Asus Eee PC 1201PN, and I have

Hi there. I made a nautilus script so that I can right-click on a file,
use it in a program, and then move the produced file back to the working
directory.
I made a test script to try it out.
