Thank you, Doug and rb, for two different approaches to my problem. I'm not, however, looking to roll my own solution if I can avoid it. Since there are plenty of sync-friendly apps for Palm's Address Book, Date Book, and Memo Pad, it seemed that there'd be a similar Palm finance app that cou

Why not just keep x11-common? It looks like a whole ton of X libraries are already installed. Otherwise, figure out which programs depend on each individual library, either by dpkg --show , or by trying to remove each library individually. Up until a month or two ago (when I gave it away), I ran

Scott, You're probably looking for /var/cache/apt/archives. I've never tried burning a CD from it and apt-getting, though. I would guess that you'd need to generate some meta-info first. You'd essentially be creating your own apt repository on a CD. dpkg -i would also work, though I've only u

Depends on which set of steps you want to do. If you're looking to install the drivers as a Debian package, you'll have to build it yourself, which is what the marlow.dk link discusses. If you just want to install the drivers and update them yourself (similar to what you might do on a Windows mac

My old Debian system was unfortunately reduced to toast by a UPS failure. I had been using cdrecord and the ide-scsi module happily. My new Debian - still Woody - system does not seem to have the ide-scsi module anywhere. uname Linux cbw 2.2.20-idepci #1 Sat Apr 20 12:45:19 EST 2002 i686 unk
