Hi,
How do I download the .debs of packages already installed in my system
without having to reinstall them first via apt?
The command I'm using right now is:
apt-get --yes --reinstall install `cat package_list.txt`
where package_list.txt contains the package names per line.
TIA

What happens if you reboot the installer in rescue mode and tell it to

Just search the web for a font you like. As long as they are in the usual
TrueType format, you can just drop them into /usr/local/share/fonts/truetype.

Of course. They could have trojaned any of the tools you would use. _No_
software on a rooted box can be trusted. Including the shell.

I don’t have it inst
Am I the only one who finds the gnome-power-manager to be
fundamentally flawed? A power daemon needs intrinsically to be
system-global and not specific to a particular login session.
This becomes obvious when there are several logins active at the same time

Hi,
I am curious, how many of you play with kernel schedulers that are not
in mainline?
To name just a few, there is CFS:

And there still is ck1 for 2.6.22 (and previous), but there will not be
for 2.6.23 or beyo

Hi Folks,
I'm using the latest debian-testing-amd64-businesscard installer on an
Asus P5K motherboard with an ICH9 Southbridge and Marvell 88SE61xx SATA /
PATA chipset. I'm using an HP dvd1040i CDrom drive for installation.
The installer boots fine but cannot find any cdrom device to use. Whe

Hi Robert,
I've had the same problem on my server. I think this is due to an access
deny on the mail data.
You may want to add clamav user to the Debian-exim group and restart
clamd so that the clamd process is able to access
/var/spool/exim4/scan/whatever.
Have a nice Sunday!
