As I told in my previous posting, I think Debian is great.
But this does not imply that only _gurus_ may want to use it. It took
some time to me to find out how to do some tunings after installing from
scratch, nothing so important but anything unuseful I think.

Is there a mailing list gateway from debian_user to linux.debian.user?
I subscribe both of those, because some messages does not seem appear in
both in the mailing list and the newsgroup.
I remember reading something about this a month ago or so, but I can't
really recall what the message said.

Most likely it can't be opened because that device was not compiled
into his kernel, but it was into yours.
Probably it's nothing but I know for sure my utmp file got corrupted
when my /var partition got full after the guys here at the
office sent lots of e-mails with large attachments.
I just started over with a zero length utmp and everything went fine.
