Sawfish by default, will just have the standard X background. If you middle

The other option is to edit your .xinitrc

2.4.2 is a stable kernel. When you upgrade you might need some of the
packages you find at [1], at least modutils when your kernel is modular.

How about using autofs to delay the actual mount until it's requested?

I have read the kernel-package Readme and it says (I think) to name custom
kernels like this:
make-kpkg --revision=custom.1.0 kernel_image
I can do that, but then when I install the kernel and run "uname -a" I get a
name like 2.2.18. How can I identify the kernel as a custom kernel version
once i

AFAIK EXTRAVERSION is used for patched kernels, e.g.

I'm using wvdial to connect to my ISP. It connects and starts pppd, but
none of my internet apps (lynx, telnet, fetchmail) can connect to any host.
I think wvdial or pppd isn't setting finding the DNS correctly...
Any help would be much appreciated!!!
With "ilename.tar.gz"on a CD, what do I
have?
What are the stepsto untar and unzip such a
file.

Hi,
check /etc/resolv.conf. There should be lines like:
nameserver 1.2.3.4
nameserver 1.2.3.5

Hi,
first make sure gunzip is installed. To do so, do:
apt-get install gzip
Then you can do:
tar -xvzf filename.tar.gz
It is an archive in whioch all files are put after each other (one big
tarred file for tapes). Then that one big file is gzipped.
Alternatively you can do:
gunzip filename.tar.

I've got an Epson 740 I've set up with magicfilter.
When I attempt to print a file (user or root), the job queues up
normally, then disappears as if it had been printed, but it hasn't been!
I get no error messages, and if I ask lpr to send email on completion,
I get an email indication successful
