Hi,
Apologies in advance for the basic question. I'm counting on the
everlasting patience and generosity of the list members. I googled to no
avail in search of an answer.
How do I discover which device drivers are built into a given kernel
image, not accessing the sources ?
Thanks
Paulo

Hi All,
How do I tell gcc to use the debug version of glibc ?
I installed libc6-dbg but I just can't find out how to direct gcc to use
the debug version of the libraries. I searched gcc's manual and googled
around but couldn't find out what certainly should be a trivial command
line option.

KDE sources all shell scripts placed in ~/.kde/env. What I do is:

2. Place all global environment variables in /etc/environment
This way they're available to console and KDE-started appl alik

Hi,
Would anybody know how to enable APM on a 2.6.14-2-686 kernel ?
After I upgraded my kernel to 2.6.14-2-686, I noticed I couldn't suspend my

These messages come from dmesg:
