Add to this the X frontends for cdrecord, cdparanoia, cdrdao,etc:
my favourite: xcdroast 0.98 ( doesn't copy on-the-fly audio CDs , though, just
data)
gcdmaster (1.1 i think) (can't find a .deb for this one, check out .rpms or
non-packaged
binaries) this one does on-the-fly copies for audio CDs.

Hi all!
I'm using an nvidia card and I have a problem with compiling OpenGL apps
with it:
cc -o origami origami.o -L../libglut -L/usr/X11R6/lib -L/usr/lib
-L/home/romain/OpenGL/opengl_for_x/glut/libglut -lglut -lGL -lGLU -lXmu
-lXext -lX11 -lm
origami.o: In function `display':
origami.o(.text+0x6
Hi,
I've used debian and win2k on the same computer w/o any problem:
I was able to boot with a standard-issue lilo , and no need for the win2k
bootloader neither.
Bye

PS in case you encounter a problem here is a patch: "format c:" :-)

The debs are in debian/pool: you can get them by adding unstable to your
apt sources list (apt-setup will do it fine for you).
I did it "by hand", because I didn't want to change my apt settings,
the files I got are:
libfreetype6_2.0.1-1.debxserver-common_4.0.2-1_i386.deb

Well, no...
The driver won't compile with kernel 2.4.

I've used that patch for a while now and no problems with it, though X

Just FYI you can also swap disks with LILO.
(I've not often seen it mentioned so I guess I'll say it aloud here)
Apart from the syntax that was a bit more evoluted than GRUB's it is
exactly the same.
It's something like this:

Hello everyone,
I'm using kernel 2.4.0-test12.
I need to compile the drivers for my nvidia card and they call
"get_module_symbol" and "put_module_symbol" which I cannot find.
I did a quick search on the web but I found nothing about test12...
If anyone could tell me how I can get a patch or s
have you tried the ESD output plugin instead of the OSS one ?

I followed your instructions and did this:

1) please don't post in HTML
2) just a guess: did you check in your BIOS that the "PnP OS" was set to
"Disabled" ?
If it isn't it might explain why linux doesn't see your hardware.
Besides, if all your peripherals are __still__ set to the same IRQ, you may
need to force the

I have an es1371, and it has no /dev/sndstat file.
