Hello Benjamin!
Do you have something new to test for sleep on TiPB?
BTW. If I remember right, FireWire is not switched off during sleep,
will this happen in the near future?
Maybe some interface to configure which device should be powered on
during sleep and which device can be powered off durin

Hi,
I've uploaded a new revision of the zope package (2.1.6-8) for stable. i386,
arm and m68k packages are already there, but alpha, powerpc and sparc is
missing.
Joey told me to inform you to recompile the package so that it can get into
2.2p3. The package fixes a quite important problem with th

Well, not really. I have a machine with only 7.5.2 on it, and was
able to get stuffit and bootx on there. You just have to use the
right version of stuffit. They have many on their ftp site. The
fight is not won, however, until you can get it onto the mockos

I have a problem concerning mtools (potato/ppc, 2.2.19pre17, PB 3400).
The first time I do "mdir", everything's fine. But the second time I
always get "Can't open /dev/fd0: device or ressource busy. Cannot
initialize 'A:'", until I reboot.

It seems that snmp/snmpd is broke in testing. The new version of the
libsnmp aren't available for some reason. I'm not sure what the status
of snmp is in unstable but I thought that nothing was suppossed to enter
testing unless it had no problems in unstable for at least two weeks.
