I am confident that the ethernet cable is correctly installed and that the connection to the hub is working as the relevant panel light comes on both in the front of the machine and on the hub. The driver loads apparently correctly, and ifconfig reports a device. dhclient tries to get an address but fails, and if I statically configure the card it accepts the values but then fails to communicate. Which ethernet chip? Anyone have any further ideas? Well what does lspci -n |grep 0200 say for the network card? How about lspci -n |grep 010[14] for the ide/sata/raid cards? Len Sorensen Of course I could not do an lspci with the installer, as it is not present (why, it would be so useful), so I used Knoppix instead. The raid card is: 1044:a511 RAID controller Adaptec (formerly DPT) SmartRAID V Controller rev 1 and the network cards:- 14e4:1640 Broadcom NetXtreme BCM5704. With your driver in exprt mode it correctly identified the cards and the drivers that were needed for them, but said they could not be loaded.

Re: convert .wma to .mp3
The easy and efficient way of doing this would be to use a pcm output redirect to the wav file and then use lame to convert it to mp3.

X86_64 on Shuttle-XPC ST20G5
Hello, debian runs on that machine but suboptimal, here are some notes I send to the manufacturer support: sata support: sata_uli If the raid switch is turned off in the bios, the linux kernel module sata_uli detects the hard disc only after a second load. Only if the bios switch for raid is turned on its possible to boot from sata drive. In both modes it's not possible to detect my Plextor PX-716SA sata dvd-writer. The company ULI offers sata module for older kernels (current is 2.6.14) on their website, but on the need to boot from sata drive the module must be included in the kernel and cannot be loaded afterwards. usb: My Logitech mouse at the usb port flickers, the drivers where constantly loded and and unloaded. At first it seems like a break inside the mouse cable, but I could elimate that, by using that mouse at another computer. Therefore it must be a bug in the usb driver, take a look at the syslog abstract below to see how that makes the use of a mouse at that port impossible. sound: With snd-hda-intel module for the Realtech ALC 880 sound component of the ST20G5, only the Line out exit at the back is usable. Headphones and Microphone ports are unusable. acpi: The kernel could only start with acpi and apic off, otherwise the kernel stops at boot. Kernel command line: root=/dev/sda2 bootkbd=qwertz/de acpi=off noapic ro console=tty0 ATI XPress 200 graphics: Currently the usage of X is only possible with the standard vesa module of the Xorg 6.8.2 server.

Problems with mozilla-browser 1.7.12-1 in testing
Using testing, mozilla-browser 1.7.12-1 is unusable for me: It crashes after a half-dozen clicks from a web browser (if four clicks doesn't kill it, usually a back-button or two does). Reverting to 1.7.8-1 restores its health. I've tried removing the .mozilla folder, but it doesn't help. Does the amd64 testing mozilla-browser 1.7.12-1 work well for anyone?
