Another thing that's tweaking me about 2.4.16-ben0 is that the clock gets set 1 month ahead on boot. In OF, the system time is correct. When I boot, the system time is Sun, 2 Dec 2002 02:00. Off by a month. My apologies if these things are being discussed elsewhere, but I suddenly stopped getti

I've had the same problem. I've found that the 'esddsp' program is broken. I commented out about three lines which deal with esddsp in /usr/bin/mozilla, and it works. I submitted a bug a little while ago, and have gotten no respose (BUG #120829 of package esound-clients). I've noticed that running

After doing an apt-get dist-upgrade on my TiBook running testing (with mozilla installed from unstable) this morning, Mozilla will no longer launch from the gnome panel, or from the command line when typing just "mozilla". Looking at the output of ps in both cases shows that the mozilla-bin --
