call for beta testing emu10k1 driver improvements

e-mu cards, but a variety of other (mostly minor) improvements and bugfixes is included as well. i have only an e-mu 0404 card, so my own testing is obviously limited. to fully unleash the driver, emu_das=1 needs to be added to the module options. this switches the driver to a mode which is

Hi, i assume that you are better off with your complaint at debian-b...@lists.debian.org One can see in the list archive that bug reports about partitioning during installation get re-attributed to package "debian-installer". E.g. in https://lists.debian.org/debian-boot/2020/06/msg00065.html

speed improvements for a low end system

I'm in the process of replacing my computer's role with an old computer, to give my system more freedom (I don't have to be up all the time!). Anyone have any software suggestions on how I can improve the speed on my old 486DX/33 (8 ram, 1 ide, 2 old scsi drives, PS/1 w/ 8k i-cache!)? This compu
