I find the following line in /etc/fstab does what I want:-
/dev/hde1 /home/steve/zaurus vfat rw,uid=1000,gid=100,user,noauto 0 0
but every time I umount & remount it rewrites, deletes the above line & relaces

After an apt-upgrade Openoffice.org will no longer work. Nothing in
the logs seems reevant & nothing in /var/log.
Tried a forced re-install to no effect. I don't even get a "cannot
find" note. Just the PC carries on as if I hadn't asked it to do
anything.

I've got evolution on my system & working fine as far as I am concerned.
It wants to download libpisync0 which is for palm sync ( don't have a
palm device). It tries then fails & apt-get stops at that point. How do
I get apt-get to ignore this non problem & carry on with the rest of its
work?

Anyone know how to get the kernel to see the right irq & io for a 3c509b
card with the above kernel. Windows, 2.2 kernel & ltsp all get it right

I'd like to add cyrus imap from unstable to my otherwise testing setup.
I have read back through the list & it would seem to be possible to add
this to my sources list but I cannot sort the exact line to add. Can
anyone suggest the line for a single package from unstable.

Apt-get upgrade is holding back a number of packages without giving a
reason. It seems to have them on hold & a few days later it still has
them on hold.
Had a look in logs etc & cant find any reason. Anybody know why &
ideally what I can do about it.
Packages are
abiword afterstep gettext gimp
Just done my usual apt-get update, apt-get upgrade & 2 of my machines
have "kept back" a number of upgrades without explanation. Any ideas
why this is or where I can look to find out. Had a hunt through the
log files to no effect.
The kept back packages are:-

In the present time too it would appear. That was the one I needed.
Thinking about it & going back to when I last was messing about with
Printcap I should have known the answer. The printer definition has to
be in one line (the \ at the end of the line simply puts a new line on
