You should send all root mail to some other user such as yourself.
For example I have "root: hastings" in my /etc/aliases. However I use
exim not postfix so YMMV.

You are correctly using the "j" flag to call bzip2 to decompress the
file before untaring it. The error seems to indicate that bzip2 is not
installed on your system. Solution: install it!
apt-get install bzip2

ds to mp3's or oggs can be done with grip.
Cheers,
Nick.
PS. Both xcdroast and grip are just gui front ends to lower level
tools (cdda2wav, cdrecord, oggenc etc.). Once you become more familiar
with linux you may find it easier to use these tools directly.

The package name is xserver-xfree86, so:

Because x-window-system is a meta-package that depends on
x-window-system-core, which is another
to load other modules? I was using alsa modules with no
problems with 2.6.0-test1 and 2.6.0-test3. My current kernel
(2.6.0-test3) has alsa compiled in (not as modules) and works without
a hitch.
