reportbug: don't know: bug in apt [list] or in grep

Hello together, listing packages in apt with ”sudo“ in the title returns different output (bash commands at the end of the email). I would fill a bug report, but I'm not sure whether to address it to grep or apt. How do you see this? Kind regards Julian Schreck -- $ apt list sudo* vs. $ apt l

I don't think debian works well on my ppc mac (iBook). I would buy thinkpad or something. On Dec 10, 2007 12:43 AM, Daniel Burrows <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Sun, Dec 09, 2007 at 03:27:12PM +0900, js <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> was heard to > say: > > So I

Anyone using Debian on notebook?

Hi list, I've just switched back my dev box from OS X to Debian. (I was used to be a Debian users but away from Debian for about 3 or more years.) OS X is great but Debian is so much better and easier in managing packages. OS X has some alternative to APT, like Fink and MacPorts but they are not o

Graphical SSH/SFTP client for KDE?

Why is my kernel broken?

cd-rom mounting problem

Hi, I ran through the process of installing Linux without having so much troubles. But when I tried to use "Dselect" with "[0] Access" on my cdrom, it goes nuts. I specified the block /dev/hdb (my cdrom is slave on my primary) ... this is the error messages I get: hdb: status error: status=0x08
