Hi,
I just installed Current debian (I guess that's Woody? Or is
it Sarge now?) Anyhow, I've been trying to install my X-server,
with KDE or with Gnome.
But both of them seem to want Cracklib2-2.7, and KDE also wants
ksirc. In both cases, when I am downloading, no matter where I go,

Hi,
I have an interesting situation:
(1) We have at school a Microsoft Networking network.
(2) We need to get a Linux Koha library system going. For this
reason, I would like to have 8-10 students working on the installation,
in our computer lab, with as little disruption of the com
Okay, I've just tried to uninstall both KDE *and* Gnome in order to fix
my problems, and have found the source of my problem a little bit
better, but not how to fix it:
Dselect seems to be hopelessly jammed up.
If anyone has some suggestions, I'd appreciate it.

Hi -- I have an interesting problem:
(1) I had Woody / KDM / (KDE/Gnome/TWM). I decided to upgrade KDE,
since the old version crashed anyhow on my own user name.
(2) I deinstalled KDE
(3) I upgraded Woody to Sid. (meanwhile using Gnome and KDM)
(4) I installed KDE 3.0.4 through dselect.
My cdrom is /dev/hdb. I don't have a /dev/cdrom listed. Is there a way
that I can create a /dev/cdrom?

Hi --
I have Sid, but used to have Woody -- the problem seems to be
independant of the choice here. The problem also seems to be possibly
related to both KDE 2.x and Gnome, so perhaps independant of that, too.
I use KDM for login.
Anyhow, back in my Woody days (2 weeks ago), I was tem
Hmmm ... I started looking more into printers, in the hope that I could
get a real print system going with my DJ1120c.
First, I saw how the HOWTO advised pdq. Installed that -- didn't see
support for the DJ1120c, and started to look more. Then I noticed that
some parts said that this was huge

I have a line printer, set up as a line printer on COM Parallel port

The printer is an HP DJ1120c, which can interpret plain text as

I've been recently trying to upgrady my debian/woody box to unstable, so
that I can pull KDE up to KDE 3.04 or better, because of a bunch of
crashing on my sound server, plus some bug reports that essentially
say that the 2.2.2 Konquerer has some major security flaws.
Anyhow, while doing the DSE
Hi, I got a new IDE CD-R, and swapped out my old CD. As of this point,
I am having trouble mounting it from Linux (Win98 works). I have Woody.
In my box, I have on the first cable:

On the second cable:
DEV HDC2: Linux boot (loadlin)

Okay, I have Debian, Woody, Hotplug, USB, and a cheap junk USB camera.
How do I access my pics? I'd really like three answers:
(1) How to access them directly as files, if possible
(2) Best way to download them as pictures, and save them
(3) How to create nice compressed .mpgs from it (
Here's a quick question, perhaps someone would know the answer.
Suppose I wanted to make a computer that was completely and
automatically native to Linux, such that it automatically booted
into Linux, nice and quickly. What would the best way of doing
this be?

Well, it looks like Loadlin and Woody will not be compatible for some

If that is the case, it is a shame, because I suspect there are a lot of

Hi,
I have woody and KDE. I'm trying to get PDQ, especially XPDQ, up and
running.
I tried to install PDQ from Dselect, and that didn't seem to work.
I went to the HOWTO, and thence to a PDQ site, and downloaded my
printer's setup file.

I have KDE, and whenever it starts up, it says it cannot initialize the
sound, because /dev/dsp returns "permission denied". (I am assuming
that dev/dsp refers to the DSP on the sound card.)
Likewise, I cannot run Floppy services unless I log in as root.
Okay... I'm not a genius, but this is going to be
a no-brainer for some of you, I can't figure it out.
I have a simple program that uses log.
I have "include " in my program.
When I compile on gcc, I get "unknown identifier: log."
gcc mylogprog.c -o mylogprog.exe

Okay, I managed to *create* some baltic characters for the console,
anyhow, using FONTER. I'm expecting I could figure out BASH to make it
automatically install the character set. Later, if need be, I can
export text files, and use mass search/replace to convert it to
something I could send.
