Once it is running I cant stop it. Nothing (I mean it) will stop it. I have to restart the computer if I need to use other programs with the palm and worse of all it will not allow the file system to be unmounted because it is always using the /dev/ttyUSB0 file!! It causes fsck to run every boot! How can I set pppd up so that it disconnects and shuts down when the palm does?

strange 8139too problem/question
Hi, I went through the woody installation. I installed the 2.4.18-bf kernel and when I got to the part of the install where you select kernel modules the 8139too (realtek 8139 NIC driver) was not there?!?! I then exited the installation and reinstalled because I need that driver. I did my reinstall with the default kernel (2.2.x.*ide or something) and the 8139too was there. When I finished the install I used apt-get to install the 2.4.18-bf kernel. When I do lsmod the 8139too does not show up yet my NIC works. Is the 8139too module compiled into the 2.4.18-bf kernel? If not, how come my NIC is working but there is no net drivers when I run lsmod? Thanks Paul -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

debian bug reporting
Hi, If there is a bug in a debian package and you are 90% sure its the upstream developers fault should you still report it and let the packager forward it upstream?

3d games crash
Hi debian-users I am running debain unstable. I know that things crash in unstable I just find it odd that two 3d games both give segfaults so I think it may be a problem on my end.

Re: Stable? Unstable?
*official* debian cds are stable. After you install upgrading to unstable or testing is easy and painless.

alternatives to NIS and NFS
Hi, I am in charge of a small office network. The server is running Debian stable with some testing packages and the desktops are running mandrake 10.0. Currently we are using NIS for authentication and NFS to share the home directories. I have been having some hassles with NIS and would like to upgrade to a more modern system. Are there any alternatives to NFS and NIS? As long as it not to complex to setup and is fairly easy to administer its fine. X is not on the server so all admin takes place over ssh.Security is an issue. It is safe to assume that there will not be any windows clients on the network, ever :) There is one osx ibook being used but it does not need to 'login' to the network.

Samba's not a goer. Doesn't do Unix permissions. It's a Windows/OS/2 sharing scheme. I was wondering about that ...

Re: Americas army
