Re: Upgrading the kernel on a woody box

Firstly I'm moving this to the debian-user list as it's got nothing to do with KDE. In future please ask such questions on debian-user, feel free to CC me on such questions as I maintain the devfsd and lilo packages. On Wed, 31 Oct 2001 08:11, rikiwarren wrote: > I've downloaded the kernel-imag

Startup order (PCMCIA and init 2)

Hi everyone I have a question about changing the startup order (init 2) of /etc/init.d/{dhcpcd,pcmcia,ntpdate}. The problem is, the dhcp client is executed before the PCMCIA stuff loads. So there is no network connection when ntpdate tries to synchronize the clock. I have to log in as root and res

Packages list?

I have managed to install Debian on an old laptop via a "pile of floppies".  Now I need to install other packages via the same way for x.  When running "dselect" it requests a floppy, with the packages list?  How do I get or make this.  I've looked around in ftp with no success.   Any help w

Oracle 9i on Debian

Hi, After struggeling for quite a while trying to get Oracle 9i running on Debian properly, I copped out and went the easy route. Since I wasen't ready to move from Debian to Suse just for a test/play oracle installation, I took the middle road. If anyone is interested, here is what I did to get O

KMail question: launching URLs with Mozilla, not Konq

Is it possible to have KMail use Mozilla to launch URLs instead of Konqueror? This seems like a fairly simple thing to do, but I can't find out just how. (If it matters, I run woody, and use WindowMaker day-to-day with some KDE apps.) Thanks, Gordon

RE: Slow inital connect to WU-FTP, SAMBA, TELNET

FWIW I added reverse DNS entries for the address range I was working with. The entries had not been there for different reasons, we are not the master for this address range, or the address range is bogus (10.1.1.1)... anyway I added the entries to our DNS server and it's all working. Note: The
