Network interface sanity

Hi, I have a laptop with one wired ethernet interface (eth0) and one wireless interface (eth1). I'm using ifupdown. When the computer is not connected to a wired network, while starting up, it is associated with my wireless network and requests and receives an IP address with DHCP. That, however

Debian-installer and loop-aes

Hi, I'm about to install Debian unstable on a new laptop[1]. I would like to encrypt the drive in case the machine gets lost or stolen. Since this is a new install, it seems preferable to do it right from the start, in order to avoid all the hassles involved in moving from plaintext to encrypted f

Alternatives to polypaudio (bug #339589)

Hi, When I switched from OSS to ALSA a few years ago, I started having problems with ESD. In particular, it often would not release the sound device, so that non-ESD-enabled programs could use it when ESD didn't need it. Then I discovered polypaudio, and since I sitched to that sound daemon, I ha

Mailing lists for the BTS

Hi, When a bug is filed in the Debian Bug Tracking System (BTS), a mailing list is created (@bugs.debian.org). AFAIK, the submitter and the maintainer of the package, for which the bug was filed, are on this list. Is there a way for a third party interested in the status of the bug to join the ma

Kerberos-authentication in Evolution

Hi, Up until a few days ago, I was happily using Kerberos 4 in Evolution to authenticate against a Cyrus IMAP server. Then it suddenly stopped working. Initially, I assumed that something had changed in the server configuration, but then I found this: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugrep

Webcam in Debian

Hi, I'm looking for a webcam for video-conferencing that is well-supported by Debian sid. I will probably have to go for a USB model, since my laptop only provides unpowered IEEE 1394 (FireWire). Do you have any recommendations? Is a camera with an autofocus lens worth the extra money? Thanks in

ddclient uses an unreasonable amount of CPU time

Hi, I'm using ddclient 3.6.2-3 in Debian Sarge in daemon mode to keep my DynDNS.org hostname updated. I have configured it to check the IP address of eth0 every minute, but for some reason ddclient uses 10 to 20 % of the CPU all the time. Is there anything that can be done about it? I don't know
