> a nice small 9pt neep font or similar, at 1600 res, on this 15" laptop screen.
That should be 8pt I just realised - and neep 8pt is almost reasonable
on the 20", but obviously still suffers from the "not quite properly
shaped letters" problem, which was the only reason I didn't run it on
the 15"
Finally the problem was on the .gtkrc-1.2-gnome2 file that autogenerates
the .gtkrc file.
The solution was to adjust the correct settings to .gtkrc-1.2-gnome2
like:
style "user-font"
{
font="-microsoft-verdana-medium-r-normal-*-*-90-*-*-p-*-viscii1.1-1"
}

I've just installed udev on my unstable box. This box has an nvidia

How should I configure the system so that the appropriate device nodes
will be present in /dev on startup for both nvidia and vmware?

Check dmesg and grep for anything about acpi.
If you see something like:
"ACPI disabled because your bios is from and too old."
then you'll need to pass "acpi=force" to the kernel.

Hi,
I'm getting the following console message on boot up:
Starting advanced configuration and power interface daemon: not
supported by kernel.
I have CONFIG_ACPI_BOOT=y set in my kernel config.
Does this message have anything to do with the fact that I can't auto
power shutdown?
How can I make

Just a guess, but I think it means the "bootable" flag isn't set for the
