did run apt-get and it didn't fix it.
How can I fix this? (I've tried different package mirrot

I just installed Debian Linux (sarge) onto a Mac Mini (kernel
2.6.8). I want to share a 22" ADC Cinema Display between it
and another DVI Mac running Mac OS X. I have a

If one is compiling a custom kernel, does one need the

I've compiled kernels before (it's been a while, however), and I

Some of you may be aware of the problems with using a Mac
