synaptic touchpad does not work anymore
Hi all, after updating my system, the synaptic touchpad does not work any more. This is only, when I start the windowmanagers KDE or XFCE as normal users. I suppose it is a problem of permission rights. But where do I have to search ? Does somebody have any clue ?

Re: Double problem with KDM
The keyboard problem does not come from the driver in Xorg. I checked, it was correct. I'm not using the nv driver but the nvidia driver that I installed with the installer from NVidia. Anyway, I don't have any trouble with my Xorg config once I get to KDE or Gnome. So I don't think the problem comes from there. I had also already read the thread can't connect to any desktop. However, commenting out the line about ssh-agent in Xsession.options did not change anything. From what I read, I understood that the problem occured for versions of openssl and libssl that are newer than 0.9.8-3. But I have only the openssl 0.9.7g-2 and libssl 0.9.7e-3 installed. Any more suggestions? - Emmanuel A J Stiles wrote: On Wednesday 19 October 2005 09:01, Emmanuel Guiton wrote: Hi! After I installed Debian, I tried to use kdm instead of gdm.

Re: Virus Scanner 64 bits version ??
It takes more work/skill to secure Linux than it does to secure Windows XP. Hence there are probably more secure XP installations out there than Linux boxes. Secure has different definitions in *nix and MS Windows. For instance, Microsoft does not consider local exploits to be real security flaws. Google for shatter attack. Also, if you find a way to turn off the administrative SMB/CIFS share(s) under XP without disabling SMB/CIFS all together, please let me know. It was possible under Win2k, but now the administrative share(s) are better hidden and (as far as I can tell) not easily disabled without disabling all of the MS SMB/CIFS client functionality along with the SMB/CIFS server fuctionality. -Karl
