Hi list,
Since I last upgraded my Lenny box, both xdm and gdm silently fail to
start at boot time.

never actually called.
If I run /usr/sbin/gdm directly they both work fine.
I would file a bug report... but against which pack

Hi list,
Tinkering with Scheme and CGI...
Iceweasel _insists_ on asking me what I want to do with 'foo.scm' (save
it to disk or whatever).
Neither IE6 nor Firefox (in Windoze) ask me this question, they simply
render the intended output.
Of course, it _could_ be my server; lighttpd, but I doubt
Hi Doug,
Thanks for the suggestion. Now you mention it, it seems like the
obvious thing to do!
I'll give it a go.

Doh! The postrotate script is in /etc/logrotate.d/mysql-server:

That's one of the things it's for ;-)

How about:
$ apt-show-versions | grep unstable
This may be overkill, but you'll never look back if you overcome the
supposedly steep learing curve...

Yes, pretty much, if not _exactly_ the same.
Simply compare the contents of:

Hello all,
I have an external firewire drive with several partitions on it, only
one of which I need on a daily basis. As soon as I switch it on,
gnome-volume-manager mounts all (five) partitions. Is there any way I
can instruct gvm to ignore four of them?
TIA

Hi all,
I'm running GNOME 2.10.2 in Debian Etch on an i686 platform. Just noticed
that before long my ~/.xsession-errors file looks like this every time
I launch RealPlayer.
