HI,
When you download a debian source package after extracting it you can
find the dependencies in the package-version/debian/control file.
There can be more packages to install or compile again.
e.g I have the following src URI-s in my /etc/apt/sources.list:
#Sources stable
deb-src ftp://sunsit

Hi Heather,
I believe this is a problem caused by the ATI graphics chip in the M700 -
it seems to cache the last view before it's shut down. One possible
solution is to flush the chip by restarting X with ctrl alt bksp - before
you snooze.

Hi debian laptopers,
I use compaq armada m700 with debian woody.
if I press the sleep button, the screen shuts off smoothly,
but if I wake the system up, the screen is a mess.
I have compiled kernel 2.4.2 with APM support, and I don't
know what else to do.
