Now that I finally have a working Debian system, I want to know what will

case, but I'm wondering what the general impact is if I have to install
programs that I can't do from apt.
For example, Main Concept will be com

I've been running a LAN based on Mandrake Linux for over a year (including a
box or two w/ Win2K, using Mandrake w/ Samba as a PDC and handling logins
for Win2k).
I've been very interested in switching to Debian for a while, since I've
heard so many people talk about how easy it is to upgrade p

I've noticed the same problem on a Mandrake system I have. I had times when I
had a SanDisk Cruzer (ramdrive) and a USB floppy plugged into the USB ports
and there was no way (without doing an "ls") to distinguish which was which.
The first one plugged in was always /dev/sda, the 2nd /dev/sdb.
I finally got Debian to install -- the packages that could not install were
all in Tasksel's "desktop" selection.
When selecting modules to load, I selected ATI Radeon for DRM, and selected
ATI Radeon (I can't remember if it said ATI Radeon or just Radeon) for the
video card. I've tried instal

I have a maintenance manual for an antique car that, unfortunately, can
best be viewed with a certain insecure browser on a non-free OS. I've
found the main issue with using this in Linux is that the file names
are all stored as relative URLs with backslashes between the directory
levels inste

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:root]$ aptitude show lame
Package: lame
State: not a real package

this:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:root]$ aptitude search lame

I've been working on a project with some Linksys routers. New routers
are set to use the IP address 192.168.1.1 and my network uses the
172.16.*.* address space. I've had this in my
workstation's /etc/network/interfaces file:
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 172.16.7.11
netmask 255.25

reported by drive
Has anyone built a RAID out of USB drives? I'm considering it but I'd
rather hear from others who may have done the same thing first. I can

same order /dev/sd
