Hi,
I've found a way to automatically keep my list folders small, and do it
automatically with mutt. Let me show you how I did it. There's one
problem, but I'll get to that...
Let's look at some relevant portions of my .muttrc:

I recently switched from slackware to debian. Under slack, when users were
added they were defaultly added to the group "users". I see debian gives each
user his/her own group.
1. Why did debian adopt this method?
2. If say, I want to add two of my users to the same group, is it safe to add

won't start as a result.
Can anyone supply a copy of their working XF86Config-4 they use with
the ATI Radeon? Here's a few choice lines from my configuration - can

It can be found here:

This howto is in an early release form: It is not complete, but contains

I hope to update this once or twice per week, and will post it to the

This is from a pgp.net keyserver? If so, it has corrupted your key in the
server because there are two subkeys. Their crap software has not been

When I run "dpkg-reconfigure ssh", I just get dropped back to a command
prompt. No questions; no disk thrashing; no bells and whistles.
I originally told sshd to not run; now I want it to run. I know I can
just delete the file /etc/ssh/sshd_not_to_be_run, but I'd rather do it
the "correct" way.
Thanks for the response, but when I put this in the sendmail.mc and run
either make or sendmailconfig it gives the following error:
***WARNING: Missing -T in argument of FEATURE(`access_db', hash -o

It does accept the mail for delivery, but does anyone know what this warning

Hi folks,
I'd like to get some input on an idea I had to backup a pure debian
system.
I like my backups on cd-r, so my current system backup eats roughly 10
cd-r. For me, this seems a little too much, because all packages are
available via the internet, nowadays pretty fast with dsl/cable.
So, I

I got it working using the web interface of CUPS under Lynx. Took about 4
attempts and some mild swearing but after 5 years of using Linux its the
first time I got it to print ;-)
Would you mind posting what you've put in smb.conf to share it?

1.how to fsck /dev/hda3 which is root? it's mounted rw, and fsck warns it is
dangerous to check it.
2.in MS-Windows, the monitor is turned down (the LED blinks) after a period
of in-activity. In X, it just blanks. what is the difference? how to make
the LED blinks in X?

to do it without rebooting:
init 1
mount / -o remount,ro
e2fsck /dev/hda3
mount / -o remount,rw
init 2
if you have other partitions mounted you have to unmount them
first (umount /mountpoint)

You need to remount it read-only (ro). See mount(8) for details:
mount /dev/hda3 -o remount,ro
e2fsck /dev/hda3
mount /dev/hda3 -o remount,rw
