Hey,
I just have a few quick questions:
1. Is it possible to switch resolutions while in X (I like using

3. would I be better off using the kernel source off the Debian 2.1

I pronounce it "demon" but I have heard a few people pronounce it "day-mun".

Hi,
has anyone else noticed that under Debian 2.1 their "ftpwho" gives incomplete

anonymous/[EMAIL PROTECTED]". This has to do with the individual ftp server
processes
not correctly entering themselves into the process table.
Why is
Slink + smbfs packaged with slink. smbmounting a share from an NT
server works fine, but in large directories I only seem to see a
portion of the files! Note that this is NOT Samba FAQ 2.2 - the
missing files have names that are as valid as those I can see. In
