Hi,
I run my system as unstable, but in certain situations (i.e. recent
Evolution Segfault or Mozilla problem on ppc) I'd like downgrade certain
programs back to testing or stable - until the problem is resolved. I know
that it is possible so could anyone point me to a document about it or
show me their way to do it? 
Thanks

howto extract data from...

[Grzesiek Sedek]

Hi,
Anyone have an idea how to extract clear text from inbox file (actual
file is from m$ entuage on mac called Messages) it got corrupded and
mail client does not read it. its quite big 500 Mb so I have to do it at
least semi automaticly. main problem are the attachments(I dont need
them)- they quite big, rest of content is text.
I've put it throught strings, but it still displays most of attachments.
Thanks.

network, confilicting ip addresses and how to avoid them?

[Grzesiek Sedek]

Hi,
I've got network 192.168.0.0 and several machines on it.
I'd like to know how to avoid situation where some client machine would
set up ip manually witch is conflicting with main server on the same
network - dhcpd with assigned mac addresses is ok but what if someone
sets ip manually? - how to make it bulletproof?
Thank you.

You should use ALSA,
if you are using stock kernel you could install all of it through

Re: Multicast question (newbie)

[Grzesiek Sedek]

Hi,
It seems your kernel does not have multicast enabled - you will have to
recompile it, that should fix it.
As to the multicast itself, your network most likely does not support it
unless it's academic or expensive commercial one.
