Hi again It works perfectly for me. Are you using unstable? I have found testing often to be less dependable than unstable.

Hi friends. I am trying to install NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-1.0-8774-pkg2.run on my new amd64 system but it didn't find kernel source. How do I can install this driver?

Gkrellm mail checker & SSL?

Shutdown problem on Tyan S2875 opteron SMP
Shutdown problem on Tyan tiger s2875 dual opteron system. The command "shutdown -h" does not completely poweroff the system for kernels 2.6.11, 2.6.12, and 2.6.16. However 2.6.8 does turn off as it should! I did track the problem in the 2.6.12 kernel, writing to the mainboard LED and concluding that the kernel was indeed halting where it was supposed to in drivers/acpi/hardware/hwsleep.c, function acpi_enter_sleep_state, calling acpi_hw_register_write, but leaving fans and power on. This was about 12 months ago. I concluded it was a board problem, because the kernel software seemed to be doing everything according to spec. However in my experience attempting to install debian stable, I installed a 2.6.8 kernel, and this does power down correctly. I have noticed some discussions on this type of problem in the ubuntu forums: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.15/+bug/36158 https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.15/+bug/43961 Any comments or suggestions on this issue, would be grateful. Its just so tedious not being able to press the poweroff button and leave immediately. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

Wxmaxima does not work
Hi Could anyone test this please Open wxmaxima Open the help try some examples like (%i1) factor(10!);8 4 2 (%o1) 2 3 5 7 (%i2) expand ((x + y)^6); 65 2 4 3 3 4 2 5 6 (%o2) y + 6 x y + 15 x y + 20 x y + 15 x y + 6 x y + x (%i3) factor (x^6 - 1); 22 (%o3) (x - 1) (x + 1) (x - x + 1) (x + x + 1) It does not work for me. Then I recompiled the package apt-src install wxmaxima cd wxmaxima... fakeroot debian/rules binary cd .. apt-src install maxima cd maxima... fakeroot debian/rules binary cd .. dpkg -i *maxima*.deb and everything works perfectly. I am using wxmaxima: Installed: 0.6.5-1 maxima: Installed: 5.9.3-1.1 I think the problem is more general than only for this single package. But I would like some more clever people than me to verify it before making more fuzz about it. Regards Gudjon -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
