I owe Doug Holland and everyone on the list an apology. I am sorry I jumped on on you without checking but it was 1:45 in the morning my time and I was doing something important so I just snapped and shot my mouth off. I get annoyed when people make demands on debian and its devlopers, even more so when using unstable, which - as the name Implies - contains bugs and problems. sorry again -- Peter Nuttall [EMAIL PROTECTED] Don't CC me unless I ask Someone else can help you better than I can.

You could always backport to 3.1.3 and wait until Oct 7th for 3.1.4 to be finished. Pete -- Someone esle can help you better than I can.

Chris Cheney, the guy who does the kde packages says that the upload will be done by Oct 7th.

smb printing
hi, I have a home network that has two win98 computers and my debian sid box. I have set the printer on one of the windows boxes to be shared over the network. Can I print from kde on debian and it come out of the windows printer? I am sorry if this is a little OT but I use kde and kde based apps (such as koffice) mainly and I just want kde to print.

You need to try the commands lilo is suggesting otherwise your kernel will not be able to find your / partion. (i think). Your other problem is that early versions of lilo do not support large kernels. what version of lilo (and debian) are you running? you could also try building it yourself. this might well fix both problems. pete -- Someone esle can help you better than I can.

Two quick questions though; 1. should you run apt-get dist-upgrade as well as apt-get upgrade? 2. what does the -u flag do? the man page is not too clear. thanks again pete -- Someone esle can help you better than I can.
