I'm not sure why the kernel would make this difference, but it looks
like something is trying to connect to "No Host:9202". Do you have your
hostname properly configured? And in /etc/hosts
Dear All,
I'm running out of space on my laptop (Compaq Presario V5000) so I've decided
to intall a bigger hard disk. Currently I have an 80GB SATA drive, I'm also
going to add more RAM (from 1GB to 2GB) as RAM is so cheap at the moment.
I've been through various howto's online, including the

If you are increasing the amount of RAM, and you currently do fine on
512 MB of swap, you should be OK. That said, if you are getting a ton
more space, what is 1 GB to dedicate to swap just in case?

I would first create the new partitions on the new disk keeping the same
sequence (and increasing swap partition to 1GB), and then format them.
Say the new drive is /dev/sdb. I would go like this (mind the spaces):
mkdir /mnt/dst /mnt/src
mount /dev/sdb3 /mnt/dst
mount -o bind / /mnt/src && cd /

You don't need to mess around with bind mounting /, just do

I hate to offer so primitive a suggestion, but grep -rl 9202 /etc
might help.

That sounds like a lot of work. My guess is that it would be a
faster and easier to wipe the disk and install from scratch.

Hello,
Is anyone on the list using a Dell XPS 420 with an Nvidia card (I avoid
ati)? I am curious as to how it is working out for you, as I am
considering getting one.
Also, if you went with their non-descript wireless card, did it work in
linux? How about the onboard ethernet?
I am interested i
