I recompiled the kernel and installed the modules with the

I hacked one by hand from an old copy I had and it works, but what is

Same trouble here. I helped myself with

does this happen in redhat on the same drive, because that is a hardware

I upgraded to kernel 2.2.13 from 2.0.35 and can't print anything under
the new kernel. I changed /dev/lp1 to /dev/lp0 in /etc/printcap as

The / partition on my home PC is fairly small and sometimes gets filled
up because ov /var, so I've decided to migrate /var somewhere else.

Hello Debian,
Is there a way to tell apt to install a package from one medium prior to

I hope to be able to offer about 100 people the ability to run virtual hosts on
my server and need a script to set them up as users, give them home directories
