The newest package for timidity depends on lesstif. I own motif
proper. Is there a way to create a stub package for motif that
provides motif and then have timidity depend on motif. lesstif could
provide motif too.

I have two questions:
1) has something changed in the way dselect/dpkg installs packages.
In the past, dpkg used to choose the best order to install packages so
as to avoid dependancy problems. Now, when installing packages with
dselect, this is not done. For example, I recently installed emacs

I have a question. I have downloaded some quake "scripts" that I
would like to use with the linux . They work great under dos. I have
unziped them into a directory called skarmod under the quake

Hi. I am having a little trouble with gimp. I have installed gimp

that it and /etc/gimp/add-o

Hello. I am getting (and have been getting) the following error from
diald (taken from the log):
Dec 2 00:11:24 sigma diald[388]: Nonzero exit status (7) on command

Now, someone once told me to just ignore this as it wasn't a problem.

Is there any possibility of someone making a deb file of the most
recent beta of SVGA Server for X (beta G). The reason I ask is that I
have a TGUI9440AGi that is not supported at all except in the recent
betas...
If someone would tell me how, I would be willing to do it.
