Finding postgresql

2002-06-06 Thread Raymond L. Zarling
I'd like to install postgresql on my Athlon XP 2000+ based Debian 2.4.18 installation. Actually, I'd _really_ like to figure out what's going on with dselect. dselect does not find any entries for postgresql on my Athlon. But on my Toshiba laptop, running exactly the same Debian release, and usi

Could someone please help me with this? I've been trying to get sound to work on my 2.4.2 system (Soundblaster Live!) for a week now... Both soundcore and emu10k1 are configured as modules in my custom-built kernel. lsmod shows soundcore is used by emu10k1, and emu10k1 is unused. /dev/sndstat i

I am trying to install X 4.0 on my (newly installed) debian 2.2.18-pre21-ide system. I've got it partially-working after creating the missing /etc/X11/X link (I get a window with a primitive xterm and an X cursor using startx, but no pop-up menus and it doesn't launch with gdm). The primary probl

2000-01-06 Thread Raymond L. Zarling
