Hi,
I used Steve Hunger's CD to install potatoe on
my son's cpu. When I entered command "lpstat"
the reply was that the command was not known.
So, I entered "dpkg -s *" and the following lines appeared-
Package: lpr
Status: install ok not-installed
Priorty: standard
Section: net
I'm not sure what this is telling me.
I would have assumed that this package would have
been installed. Can I install it from this CD? I don't
have my internet connection yet.
I'm trying to print some of documentation on Debian
so I may learn how to use dpkg, dselect, and apt.After
reading some of the man pages on these tools I'm
a little confuse as to how these tools are interrelated or are they?
Can someone give me a brief history as to which tool
came first, so that I can put these tools into prospective.
later-
Wayne
