Hi,
I have trouble writing a CD using cdrecord.
My old Computer is running SuSE. There I can write a CD.
There is Debian woody on my new computer and here it's not working:
# cdrecord -v dev=0,0,0 speed=10 blank=fast file.cd_image
Cdrecord 1.10 (i686-pc-linux-gnu) Copyright (C) 1995-2001 Jörg

This helped me a lot, thanks.

Thank you, I probably would have done it this way anyways. A good hint!

Hi,
I've read HOWTOs and asked Google but I can't find the solution:
I've a postscript-usb printer. And I am running Debian, 2.4.18 kernel
(selfcompiled but almost same config as the Debian kernel).
I inserted the printer module:
modprobe printer
And then I tried
echo hello > /dev/usb/lp0
Thank you guys for your hints. Now I found out why it's not working:
I have to load uhci.
Reason:
I had recompiled the kernel and the new uhci modules was called uhci
instead of usb-uhci (because it's the alt one). So, there is a diffence between
the compiled version and the kernel source con

I installed woody.
LFS is available.
I can mount a directory to a share on a win2k machine.
The win2k machine allows files >2GB.
'ls -l' shows wrong (huge) file sizes.

Debian machine gets bigger and bigger.

Hi,
I managed to compile some small C-programs with large file support using
gcc flags: -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE.
How can I make this default? Maybe with environment variables?
I would appreciate hints very much, since, it would make my life much
easier when I compile package
Hi,
is there a log file where I can find all boot messages?
Or, if not, is there a possibility to make them written into a log file?

Hi,
I've done a really stupid thing:
I tried to install&compile some stuff for the kernel which failed.
I made a dump before that, which I restored to make my system running
again.
But I forgot to dump & restore the /var parition.
Therefore data in /var/lib/dpkg are not consistent with the re

Yes, I found some of dpkg.status.x files.
But I don't know when these files are written. Is a backup made always
when I install new packages? There must be a config file for that. I
haven't found one in /etc.

track what I installed at a certain time.

Hi,
I try to compile the 2.4.20 Kernel. It worked before, but on that
(older) computer it does not. I do the following steps:
I download the kernel-source-2.4.20 package, unpack the source and enter
the source dir. Then:
cp /boot/config-2.4.20-3-k6 .config
make-kpkg clean
make-kpkg --initrd --

Hi,
I'm new to Debian. I hope there is someone who can help.
When I am writing on bash command line under X-window (I am using twm as windowmanager)
the end and home key is not accepted. This is working on console

Why? Any idea?

wow! It's working!
I added the line

Does this have any side effects?
Anyways, I am very happy abou

I'm new to Debian and using the very old window manager twm. I've already
spent much time to solve that problem but no success:

But it simply ignores the value 24, no matter what I enter there.

Hi,
just a question, I couldn't find an answer, yet.
If I use

is this package automatically configured by debconf.
If not how can I do that? I know there is the command dpkg-reconfigure but
I don't want to do a reconfiguration and it should be done automatically
Hi,
I'm installing Debian on an old machine. Therefore, I need a fast browser.
So, I thought Opera could be a good idea. But I can't find a package

Is there a debian package for it?
Or are there other fast browsers with flash/java support which I should

I overwrote my MBR while installing another OS.

This results in a kernel panic:
cannot open device /dev/hda2.

Hi,
I want to assign a lower priority to packages which come from other

The problem:
testing is my target release. In my sources.list there the following
entries:

Nevertheless, thank you.
