Webmin .debs

2001-12-24 Thread Adahma
I was previously running an older .88 version of Webmin that I had installed from source back when I was running Potato. I am now running Sid, and decided that since the debs always seem to be quite current for webmin, I would kill the old source install, and run with the Debian pkgs. I've now in

Hosed package install

I just installed a Debian 2.2R3, then did a dist-upgrade to R4, and then another dist-upgrade to unstable.(just in case any of that is relevant). I now have one package that's causing me grief because it fails with the following: dpkg: error processing xserver-vga16 (--configure): subprocess pos

I have a couple of questions, some of which may relate specifically to how Debian handles things...not reallt sure. Which files do I add items to such as my xterm foregound, background, font and such to. I've tried adding to ~/.Xresources but it does not seem to work. Does rxvt use those setting

modules.dep 0 bytes on 2.4.10

2001-10-07 Thread Adahma
I've just tried to upgrade to the 2.4.10-386 kernel image from unstable. I cannot get it to boot , seemingly because none of the modules get loaded. I noticed that modules.dep in the /lib/modules/2.4.10-386 is there, but is empty, showing a file size of 0 bytes. Can anyone tell me what I've done

Not Resolving on new box

2001-10-07 Thread Adahma Ashirah
I've just re-installed Debian unstable onto a new box. At first it worked fine, but suddenly I cannot resolve anything. I can talk to the internal network, as well as the internet by IP address, but nothing resolves. I've been through all my files that I know to be involved in this process, and c

2001-06-29 Thread Adahma
my K7 Athlon? I saw mention on a couple of them that said for K5 or K6, but didn't see any that indicated it was for the K7. I was assuming the 386 was a safe bet, but would like to use another if it's more optimized. Thanks, Adahma

I'm on a Woody box with all updates, running the most recent apache from there. Is there a way to tell apache to "defer" to another IP address? What I'm trying to do is...I have a sub-domain just entered as a CNAME entry pointing to my main machine. The actual machine that serves up the content I

Best (Most stable/supported) Video Card

2001-05-21 Thread Adahma
I'm about to upgrade a Potato box to testing, and plan on doing some hardware upgrades at the same time. One of the things I'm replacing will be the video card. I'm currently running a very old ATI card that I've been fairly happy with, but I've seen that alot of the newer ATI Rage based cards ha
