I just installed rvplayer, so maybe it's time to get a sound card.
I'm looking for a linux compatible 16 bit card with great sound at an
amazingly low price. Any suggestions appreciated. Web site vendors etc?

I installed debian linux (official debian 2.02 cd) and viewres
and listres fails because of an immediate segmentation
fault when the program is run. Is there a way to avoid this -
other sources that can be compiled or something that can be
done if this a problem of dynamic linking?
Something simple for bank/checking accounts and amounts spent on

Hello,
I started to use the rvxt xshell (text terminal emulator) in xwindows

Is the newsgroup "linux.debian.user" broke everywhere or just here?
The newserver here never has any posts but deja news picks up the posts?
I'd much prefer a newsgroup than a mailing list.

Converted the rpm auxillary file to a deb and got the same error message.
I believe that the deb was created by Alien and _never_ even tested on
a debian system. This leaves me with the option of trying to somehow
decompose the file and intall the auxillary file manually?
