Hello!
This is my third post on this list with this problem, hope that now
someone notice it :)
So my first question is what does fc-cache do?
My second is, why does it write "Fontconfig error: Cannot load default
config file" when I run it.
Why doest all kde applications writes the same error m
run tasksel as root and select "desktop environment" and then (i think)
click finish and then do whatever else it tells you to do.

have you tried accessing the device?
the dmesg seems ok
it looks like for some reason modprobe trys to load tuner.o twice...

Thanks :) I must admit, whilst I new it was possible to search packages,
I never really considered it in relation to sorting problems like this.
I'm sure your advice will come in handy in the future :)

Hello all!
To everyone out there having problems getting full SATA and PATA support
working on the Asus P4P800 i have good news.
It works! The trick is to configure Enhanced-Mode, SATA *only*
and *not* PATA+SATA support in your BIOS.
Yes i know that stinks. I discovered that by pure luck *sigh*
I think you will need the bttv driver, thich is included in the kernel
source...
for more information have a look at the homepage:

I'm using mine whithout any problems (only one card & from tv
though)

I'm having difficulty burning incremental CDR backups. (Using Debian
3.0r1/testing.) They burn fine, but when I mount the CD after the second
and subsequent backups, all I can see is the original session.
Here are the commands I give Linux:
(First burn)
mkisofs -r -o /tmp/cdimage /home/paulf/cdr
