After my initial install, I recompiled my kernel and had sound working
beautifully. However, at startup, esd would start and I'd have to
manually kill it because xmms would complain that /dev/dsp was busy. I
finally grew tired of manually killing the process and removed esd from my

Hi there,
the lids patch is part of the unstable distribution,
(lids-2.2.18 & lids-2.4.1).
If you want to build a secure kernel-image for debian feel free to do it.
On the LIDS-homepage there are patches including stealth and openwall4
patch. If If you wish them to be packaged I think I can do.

After running a dist-upgrade, I got a new version of gv. It doesn't seem to be

won't parse now. I get some message about the pdf file having password

Does Debian have a tool similar to SuSE's YAST to

The thing is I want the card to be set up by my DHCP

I have a lots of problem when trying to rip music from the dvdrom and
the cdrom,

What do you think about this? please, is there some one k
I have two cheap cards and it worked fine and straightforward for

the helpful responses.
The problem was that i couldn't upgrade the packages that were already
