Re: Donating Debian CDs to libraries
Hello. OK, now I'm a little confused...what exactly is the problem here? It's kinda looking like the library is jerking you around. I mean, on one hand, you say that they already have a CDROM collection. Yet, on the other hand they are claiming that they do not have the ability to deal with the donation of software. I don't want to be jumping to conclusions, but it sounds like they are shovelling a bunch of bull poop your way. That really disappoints me. Most of the librarians I know are, if not users of free/open source software, at least sympathetic to/fans of such software. After all, we are talking about a profession that thrives on the free flow of information. So it looks like the problem is not adding the CDROM set to their collection and the related cataloging issues, but good old fashioned FUD? Am I off base here? As far as cataloging the CDROMS is concerned, if this library is a member of OCLC, then they should be able to copy the catalog record for Debian Potato (which is in OCLC WorldCat...twice) and modify it for Woody. If they aren't members of OCLC and were able to catalog the other CDROMs in their collection then they certainly can catalog the Debian CDROM set. If they claim otherwise then they are presenting you with a falsehood. You library could be handling its cataloging in any number of ways (it could be done in house, as part of a consortium, or outsourced, or some other way not coming to mind right now), so I'm a bit reluctant to pass judgement on them on this front. Nonetheless, I find it a bit silly that they are having you provide the bibliographic information for the CDROMs. They, after all, are professionals and should be able to do this. Do you think that printing up the Debian install guide, new user guide, etc., and then running down to kinko's and having them bound and donating them along with the CDROM set would help with their 'we can't support such software' line of reasoning? I think it would be a good thing to to. After all, I would have been utterly lost without such documents when I was a new Debian user (heck, there are plenty of days still when I have to RTFM to get by), and I think the CDROMs (without documentation) at the library would cause more problems than necessary to Joe and Jane Average Library User who are curious about this Linux thing they saw in USA Today. Regardless, I'm sure the library doesn't provide end user support for the other CDROMs in their collection...so that argument just doesn't wash. I really like this idea, and think I may venture down to my hometown library and do this myself. That is, once I get a job and can afford to buy an official cd set and have the manuals bound. ;-) I hope this all works out for you folks. cheers -aaron -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Install sarge from cd
Hi there, I had a try installing sarge using the cd images from ftp://ftp.uni-bremen.de/pub/mirrors/debian_cdimages/debian-unofficial/sarge without success :-\ First I could not get the installer to work. It reports Failed to retrieve installer module Retrieving the module libc-udeb failed for unknown reasons. Aborting [Press enter to continue] This problem has been described a couple of times. The suggested solution was to install a basic woody and to a dist-upgrade. So did I. The dist-upgrade failed since the file Packages.gz seems to point to wrong files like /data/.2/debian/pool/... which should actually point to pool/... Since apt expects this path relative to /cdrom the path /cdrom/data/.2/debian/pool/... is needed. This path cannot be created on a existing cdrom ;-/ So my workarround was to copy the cdrom to the hard disk, create a link [copied cdrom]/data/.2/debian/pool and do a dist-upgrade from there. This one seemed to work. Unfortunately there are 9 cdroms left which do not fit on my harddisk. Is there anyone who expierenced the same problems? Maybe there are simpler workarounds. I still cannot get X to run. I installed xf86* packages from the sarge cd1. I used xf86config to get an XF86Config file. The problem is that there is not link (or prog) /usr/X11R6/bin/X. Is there program which can create this link to the X-server or I am requested to do it by hand? Maybe I have forgotten to install a package. The choosen driver (mga-something) seems to be in /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/driv BTW: My machine is on a telephone line so I cannot use a net-installation. I would like to use sarge and not woody since I would like to use the newer packages like gcc-3.3. F'up might be set to linux.debian.maint.boot Thanks for any hints.
