MD5Sum mismatch
Hi I'm trying to install the security updates from security.debain.org on my newly installed woody system however I'm getting the following errors Failed to fetch http://security.debian.org/pool/updates/main/g/glibc/libc-2.2.5-11.2_i386.deb MD5Sum mismatch Failed to fetch http://security.debian.org/pool/updates/main/k/kdelibs/kdelibs3_2.2.2-13_woody.3_i386.deb MD5Sum mismatch Failed to fetch http://security.debian.org/pool/updates/main/k/kdegraphics/kfract_2.2.2-6.8_i386.deb MD5Sum mismatch Failed to fetch http://security.debian.org/pool/updates/main/k/kdenetwork/knode_2.2.2-14.0woody1_i386.deb MD5Sum mismatch I've read the main page for apt-get(1) and as far as I can tell the option --fix-missing should fix this, but when I try this the other packages install yet I get the same error as above. Is there anything else I can try? Cheers Adam -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

If the program you're running is not SMP enabled then this is the right behaviour, the running program needs to be specially written to take advantage of a multiprocessor setup.

job in crontab not running
Hi On a squeeze box I'd like to run a script every night at 1:01am, as such I have the following entry in my crontab: $ crontab -l 1 1 * * * /home/laltest/test/nightly/nightly-git.sh $ However the script never runs and I don't any email from cron indicating script failure, when I run the script by hand it succeeds. It simply appears that cron is not running the script. I've tried looking in various logs to get an explanation of this but I can't find anything to explain this. Why wouldn't the above crontab entry cause the script to be run? Cheers Adam -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

On 18/08/05, Mauricio Lin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > How can I compile and install the NVIDIA driver for kernel 2.6.12.5 > without removing the old installed driver for kernel 2.6.12? I take it you're using the nVidia installer direct from nVidia, not the debian packages? If so then for each new kernel you need to run the installer with the --kernel-module-only flag, this will install the kernel module only for the currently running kernel, it will not install the nVidia GL libraries nor remove any kernel modules.

problem writing udev rules
Hi I'm having a problem writing a udev rule for my printer, I want it to always be setup as /dev/optra and have the following rule in /etc/udev/rules.d/010-udev.rules BUS="usb", SYSFS{serial}="6033190", NAME="%k", SYMLINK="optra" where the 6033190 is the serial number given by sysfs. This rules used to work, but I've noticed recently that the /dev/optra symlink is no longer being setup. This is with udev-0.70-1 and linux-image-2.6.12-1-k7 on sid If I change the device of the printer in cups to /dev/lp0, the device that udev assigns my printer then cups refuses to print with a "Media Tray Empty!" error, there is paper in the media tray.
