Hi,
I'll soon have an ADSL in my flat and I'm playing with d-i on a
Windoze machine running VMware just to get confident with the
installation process in order to get Debian up and running ASAP. I saw
a few threads discussed lately on this list about PPPoe and from what
I got it should be possibl

I tried to install sarge using tc1 (sarge-i386-netinst.iso) on my new
laptop (Toshiba A30-303) with pppoe. I'm not a guru (I'm a newbie)
Everything went pretty smooth; when I got to configuring apt sources in
the 2nd stage and I pressed "back" and exited from the installation

Seems like #256112 is the source of all my problems: after googling
seems like it causes problems with gnome, kde, mozilla, konqueror,
firefox and other browsers.
I'll go and fix the loopback interface
Hope this helps

Hi,
I have a Toshiba Satellite 1690CDT and I've had so many troubles with a
PCMCIA Digicom Palladio Dongless ethernet card.
To get it working with Woody it took me a long time.

Hi,
I tried the pre-rc2 installer on my laptop (Toshiba a30-303); apart from
the bug #265183 regarding my adsl connection, I had problems starting
the Gnome session.
During installation I was asked to choose a hostname and I accidentally
choosed the default one ("debian").

I could have made it even simpler by saying that

Yes we do, but I'd play safe and leave it as next step.
Getting out working (u)debs asap would means we could start
Pushing for the gtk+directf set of packages.
Just my 2 cents

Why would you force ppl interested only in the x11 version to install
the directfb one as well?

No: include files differ.

You don't need a linux machine to check that; grab the -dev.deb and
-dev.udeb in the link p

I'm not sure they need help on packaging; I might be wrong but
I don't think the gtk is not ready because of technical probl
Hi Christian,
Following a couple of links I noticed a minor problem in [1];
In the table on top of the page, "Percent world population" row,
Both Etch beta 3 and post beta 3 : "56 to 50%".
Shouldn't that be 56 to 60% ?
