quite nicely. I doubt that you'll find a .deb package, though.

Do you get the same error if you run the startup script from the

If not, it might help to add a 'cd /location/of/jar/file' near the top
of the startup script. I have had that happen before.

Hi,
I am trying to compile the linux-wlan-ng modules for kernel 2.6.9. The
kernel itself was built with kernel-package; the sources for the modules
(installed with 'apt-get source linux-wlan-ng') are
in /usr/src/modules/linux-wlan-ng-0.2.0+0.2.1pre21.
From rom /usr/src/kernel-source-2.6.9, I issue
big is the ISO?
A bittorrent would certainly be a start. I wonder how much trouble I
could get into if I tried hosting that on my machine (upstream ~ 96
KB/s). The file is pretty close to 200MB, being that I am trying to
optimally fill a mini CD.
Thanks

Hello,
Does aptitude read /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/*? I have seen a few scripts
that seem to rely on that, yet it doesn't seem to be the case for me.
If I, for example,
echo 'Aptitude::Recommends-Important "false";'>>\
/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/recommends.conf
and try to install minicom, aptitude w

Hi,
I would like to remaster a Debian based live CD (grml - www.grml.org,
in this case) by copying the system from the squashfs image, chrooting
to it, making the necessary modifications and squashing the resulting
system back up.

that the modified CD would be just for me, I think I can tighten up

Hello,
I am seeing an inordinate amount of packages dropped on my firewall -
all coming from the same source and hitting a very limited range of
ports (as reported by psad):
