Xorg 7.0
Hi Excuse me for my stupidity but I made the mistake of installing xorg 7.0 despite warnings just to find out there is no xserver-xorg. Does anyone know for how long I might have to wait or should I start the non-trivial task of downgrate Xorg?

Re: Tyan Thunder K8S S2800 blues
Quoting Uroš Golja ([EMAIL PROTECTED]): Any ideas? However, I still maintain that the kernel will not boot unless 'acpi=noirq' is appended to it. Anyone want to shed some light on the subject? I had a laptop once, it had crappy ACPI tables in the BIOS. I had to fix them myself using some ACPI table dumper and vi. This might also be nescessary for your Tyan board. I run 7 Tyan GX28 (all Dual Opteron) servers with Debian and 2.6 kernels and never have problems with ACPI on them. Tried flashing the BIOS to the latest available version?

Hi Rafael, Please checkout the BTS _before_ upgrading your packages: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=362105 You might like to install the apt-listbugs package, it doesn't solve your problem with xserver-xorg, it will just read and display bug reports for you in the future.

The only difference between his and mine is the simple fact that his doesn't have an on-board SCSI controller. Go figure. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Accessing USB drives on a Dell PE SC430
Hello, I am trying to figure out why I am no longer able to mount a USB flash drive on a PowerEdge SC430. I successfully installed a base Sarge system using the image from Kenshi Muto [0]. From here I compiled a 2.6.16.1 kernel to add built-in RAID-1 support so I could do boot-on-RAID (for which I was successful). You can find the kernel config listed at [1]. Upon upgrading to the newer kernel I am no longer able to mount and access USB media. More details from /var/log/messages can be found at [2]. I would appreciate anyone's input so I can resolve the issue. Thanks. Note: I am not a member of this list so for any responses, please CC me a copy.

starting X interferes with NFS
Yeah. I've been trying to set up X on my ASUS A8N-VM-UAYGZ system. Its on-board graphics chip is, I believe, an GFORCE4 6300. This machine is successfully in production use as an NFS server, serving an 80G reiser filesystem on LVM on RAID-1 to several other machines on the LAN. I'm using AMD64 etch with Len Sorenson's -12 kernel, and csail at MIT is my package repository. I've managed to compile and install the so-called nvidia-kernel, but nvidia is not one of the options I get when running dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg. Selecting nv gets nowhere; when I boot, X tries to start up and fails, finding no screens. But more than that, when it starts and fails on boot, the NFS server doesn't seem to work. remote-mounting the big partition on another machine times out. Of the options I've tried, only vga works at all. X still doesn't start (apparently I've specified 24-bit graphics and VGA doesn't like it), but at least the NFS server comes up properly, and my remote users are happy. Is this a known problem? Actually, I'm not completely certain whether it was nv or vesa (or both) I was using when the NFS server failed to operate -- I'd have to try it again to be sure, but it's getting late and my users are complaining about yet another shutdown. I will test it again and give more complete details, probably tomorrow. In the meantime, if someone could tell me just what data to gather to help in diagnosis, I'd appreciate it. -- hendrik P.S.

What's the status of KDE in testing/etch?
I just installed a fresh debian system on my spankin' new Athlon 64 X2 3800. Things have gone pretty well so far, but I guess I just hit everything at just the right time as far as repository sanity goes. I've tried the past couple of days to `apt-get install kde' with no joy. I keep getting complaints like: coffee (~)$ sudo apt-get install kde Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree... Done Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that the package is simply not installable and a bug report against that package should be filed.

Is this a correct assumption? If it is correct, can somebody give me a ballpark timeline when I can expect to be able to install the etch version of KDE for this platform? I've tried adding sarge to the repository and also had no luck.
