I have a similar problem. When I installed my SBLive, the volume is low in both
Linux and Windoze compared to my previously installed SB16. I can increase the
main volume to its max
i use proftpd, its pretty sweet. the config file syntax is a lot like
apache config files. its stable, good performance, and more secure that

Huh? I know we're hackers and all, but if the card is even semi-recently new,
I'd be hollering for a replacement.

Is there a command for .muttrc that tells mutt not to include me in
the group reply (pressing g on a message)?
Thanks.
Hi, all,
Is this possible? I need to install an IDE Zip 250 drive in the server here at
work to make available on the LAN. I seem to recall that you can 'refresh' the
SCSI bus to add drives without rebooting.
Is this possible (or even recommended) with an internal IDE drive?
TIA :)

Hello.
I've been having some problems here with ssh.
I want to copy files from my home dial-up box to a server (in which
I'm only a regular user), but don't want to send the password as
clear text (otherwise I'd just use sitecopy).
I've tried rsync + ssh, but then I need to interact w

Okay, stupid question time.
What is the best way of connecting to the 'net? I don't mean the
mechanicals, which connection type to use, that sort of thing, but
rather which account(s) should do so. Preferably I don't want to
connect as root, but some things (e.g. collecting mail or news) might

I'm assuming the machine is a PC. Usually you can't add IDE disks
without rebooting, also I'm not sure it's a good idea to mess with the
cables while the power is on. IDE disks are identified by the BIOS at
boot time.
Zip IDE disks are an exception : the BIOS does nothing to support
them. As f
Even better than that, mutt understands lists. Put this in your
.muttrc:
subscribe debian-user@lists.debian.org
Then mutt will know that that address is a list. Also, you will want
to change the "index_format" string otherwise all messages will have
"debian-user" as the name. This is easy to
I have an ethernet connection at school. At boot time root does the
"ifup eth0" to DHCP boot the card. Services such as sendmail, apache, ftpd,
etc. run as they should and work fine. I believe each service has a
user/group associated with it that has limited permissions. As long
as the users/gr

The current ATA standard has no provisions
cdparanoia can send its output to your audio device. Just specify
/dev/dsp or /dev/audio as the output file.
btw: You probably only want to do this if you are completely
uninterested in
1) having decent sound quality,
2) running other programs.

Apparently any address in the "alternates" variable will be removed
from the recipient list when doing a group reply (I don't think this
is explicitly stated in the documentation). Note that the alternates
variable is a regexp so you'll probably want to escape any special
characters (".", etc) and
