I'm a wintel appliance operator, so you can imagine my confusion at seeing the following on the screen of my logged off Debian/Linux box:
DEBUG: --Relation pg_shadow-- DEBUG: Pages 1: Changed 0, Reappend 1, Empty 0, New 0; Tup 1: Vac 0, Keep/VTL 0/0, Crash 0, Unused 1, MinLen 80, MaxLen 80; Re-using: Free/Avail. Space 8096/0; EndEmpty/Avail. Pages 0/0. Elapsed 0/0 sec. DEBUG: --Relation pg_rules-- (same variable names, all values "0") DEBUG: --Relation pg_views-- (ditto) DEBUG: --Relation pg_tables-- (more of the same) DEBUG: --Relation pg_indexes (sic) (deja vu all over again) The barber-poling suggests another two, or more, messages have scrolled off screen. I did check /var/log/debug and ./debug.0 and found only references to changing discs during installation. There are no background tasks running. At least non that I know about. Installation of Debian 2.2 from a 3 disc set was done dark and early a couple of days ago onto a Dell PIII, 733mHz, 64meg box. Video is onboard Intel 810e chipset. I just went through the Q&A and put in everything. X did not configure as this chipset was not found. Until I get it onto the net, I'll try to figure out some low res generic. I mention this because X, and no modem are the only exceptions to the set-up. If more info is needed, let me know (and where to find it, ha). gt
