Hi
the mainline ppa seems to be a bit neglected at the moment.
there have been no stable updates to the 2.6.33 series (should be up to
2.6.33.2)
the source and headers packages are missing for some kenrels, eg
v2.6.34-rc4-lucid meaning i can't build extra modules (openafs).
thanks

I think there is also thunderbird documentation(?) in thunderbird-locale-en-gb
included on the live cd, even though thunderbird is not included. it seems to

The mac os solution is to have a 'enforce permissions on this device' option
(in the info/properties of the device). maybe this could be implemented in a
similar way to the .is_audio_player file [0].
A safer way to back

multiple versions of a package.

/Programs/Firefox/3.0
with debian systems there are sometimes packages with multiple versions, eg
