GNOME dependencies

1999-01-24 Thread Scott J. Geertgens
I tried (via dselect) to choose all the latest GNOME packages, but when it would go to the dependency screen and number of required libraries would come up 'not available'. Is there any additional source I need apt to look at for these libraries? Or should I simply not try installing GNOME 0.99.

XEmacs beta builds

Does anyone maintain .deb files of the recent XEmacs betas? I know someone does this for the Enlightenment CVS snapshots, so I figured a similar thing for XEmacs might exist. Thanks. SJG

Montego sound setup

Can anyone point me to a doc that explains how to get sound support from a Turtle Beach Montego A3dXstream soundcard? I'm assuming a dedicated driver has yet to make it into the kernel, but I'm hoping I can get _some_ sound from it...Thanks. SJG

Thanks for the reply. I booted off of the rescue disk (I only have one partition, so I couldn't have it mounted while I tried to fsck it). Running fsck simply came back with device clean... do I need to send any flags? Someone also suggested that I disable DMA on the drive via hdparm -d 0
