"Run as root - KDE su" Broken
A couple of days ago my "Run as root - KDE su" (kdesu) utility stopped recognizing my root password. My caps-lock is off and I am using the correct keyboard layout. I can su to root in console and start my programs from there but it is not as convenient. Any ideas? wise guys, and gals.

Can I ask what you meant by "That upgrade happened for me..." How do you set up an automatic kernel upgrade which doesn't seem to exist in the repositories? (At least not the repositories that I use) In fact I only see 2.6.15-3 at kernel.org. Where is 2.6.15-4 from? --Ken -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Re: quake4 on debian amd64
So what FOSS/.deb package would you recommend for the Nvidia 6600?

Using anything other than the package makes your system no longer be a real debian system. Once you go overwriting things in places that by policy is controlled by dpkg, then you are on your own. If things break, you get to fix them yourself, and don't expect other people to have an easy time helping you, since your system won't behave the way a debian system should behave and is expected to behave. Sure it might work 90 or 99% of the time, but the rest of the time you end up with a mess that might require a reinstall to clean up again. The choice is yours, just be aware that the choice decides who can help you fix it. Len Sorensen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

Not true at all. All I use are the installers from nvidia.com. The installer will install the 64bit driver and libs and the 32bit libs. All you have to do is make sure the symlinks are ok in /usr/lib/ and make sure the libglx.so extension is the one from the installer. It really isn't that hard to do. If you have a basic knowledge of ln and know how the libs should be setup it only takes 2 or 3 minutes to use the installer and have a perfectly working system.

Re: Installing Debian on sata drive with adaptec aic-8130 controller
I prefer 3ware for all my PCI controllers, with or without RAID, they have great support in Linux. www.3ware.com Chaim Marc Blumentritt wrote: Lennart Sorensen schrieb: > Support for the marvell chip used by that adapter was only added experimentally to the kernel sources about a week ago. It was expected then to be rather broken. I would not expect a working driver in a debian installer for another 6 months at the earliest. Apparently marvell has been very hard to get any specs out of for anything, making writing a driver rather difficult. Some posts seem to indicate the marvell chips also function very differently than anything else on the market making it much harder to fit into the standard framework. Thanks for the info. I will write my hardware-vender, that when I say, I want Linux compatible hardware, that I really mean it. I will replace the controller. Any sugesstions for a SATA PCI controller with 4 ports?
