screen resolution

Hi, New to this list, and new to Debian. Just installed this over top of an old installation of RH9, which worked fine, just a bit dated. My machine is a K6-2, old but reliable. I installed by creating a small install CD, booting from CD and then basically letting it do its thing for an hour dow

I can run gconf-editor, but there is no NetworkManagerApplet under apps. I see that there is something called NetworkManager and NetworkManagerDispatcher under /usr/sbin; but when I run gconf-editor, there's no apps->NetworkManagerApplet entry. continued thanks...

Ok, next question... My original reason for upgrading from etch to lenny was because a tool (cross compiler) I'm using complained because it needed GLIBC_2.4, and apparently etch only went up to GLIBC_2.3.8. Now I've updated to Lenny, and the tool no longer complains about GLIBC_2.4. That's the
