Re: cursor problems in firefox
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 sigi escribió: Hi, since I'm using the nv-video module here, my cursor shows strange behaviour in any form fields in firefox: If I write something into formulas on websites, or even into the url-line, my cursor produces a new cursor after every single character, when I'm using my arrow-keys to e.g. correct something wrong I typed in. It's very annoying, and only happens in my browsers like firefox and galeon... Has anyone a hint, how I can stop this? I'm using xserver-xorg7.1, linux-image-2.6.18 with the built-in nv-driver (since my machine had a lot of crashes with built-by-myself nvidia-driver, I'm afraid to give it a try again - but btw with nvidia-driver this cursor-problem was not there.) Thanks, sigi. I had the same problem and it went away when i installed the nvidia (propietary) drivers. The thing was really annoying. - -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] a.K.a [chantanito] Linux user #397015 Linux machine #330946 powered by Debian Clave de huella = 6B8D 4024 CCCD 8654 0951 A1AD EEA8 D61E 1E80 FE8B -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFFeXue7qjWHh6A/osRAm7EAJ0QZDq/b7iWC4TGsQUEaMoCtYZMGgCfUbHh k4BHtLU2auAL6IUsQywlzLQ= =zuBD -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Re: Installer Profiles
Hans-J. Ullrich wrote: Hello maintainers and developers, this time I call to you, cause a political question. What do I want ? Well, when installing Debian at the first time, at a special point, Debian is asking, which profile shall be installed. There is the choice Desktop, Webserver , Printserver etc. IMO these profiles should be made more precise, as when choosing Desktop , you get always Gnome as the windowmanager. Yes, I know, it is your choice, but what I mean is, that there should be the chance for the user, to choose another windowmanager at installation i.e. KDE, Fluxbox, XFCE or whatever he likes. (Most of the people will choose Gnome or KDE, I think). I do not know, if my meanings are in your policy. However, if you are willing to change tasksel, I would like to offer you my help. As I am no coder, I could make a list with the needed packages for some profiles, if this will help. Do you (the developers and the maintainers) think, my thoughts are worth, to think about it ? If not, o.k., just forget it and apoplogize my noise. :) Best regards Hans Hans, That will be great, chossing your favorite kind of Desktop like XFCE or Fluxbox, or simply Gnome (like me), but i just think that Developers Manteiners use the information provided by package called the Debian Package Popularity Contest which allow them to know, obviuosly, which packages to include in the firsts Debian CDs. This package sets up a cron job that will periodically anonymously submit to the distribution developers statistics 'bout the most used packages on the system, and this helps making decisions such as which packages should go on the first CD; Also, it helps improving can improve future versions of the distribution so that the most popular packages are the ones which are installed automatically for new users. So i guess the thing is not up to them, it's up to the information provided by the Popularity-Contest. I agree with people who wants KDE to be included in the first CD, but doing this involves taking out some other packages, so i'm not sure if it's up to them. I just hope they don't take out Gnome ;) -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] linux user #397015 Etch - kernel 2.6.15-23-amd64-k8 ...in a world without fences and walls who need windows and gates? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

I do not think that I need to work on another package, xserver-xorg should be the right. But why am I not asked this questions. The same with exim4.

Try dpkg-reconfigure -p low xserver-xorg Perhaps some of the questions are at a different priority than they used to be. Not sure. That's what I thought as well when I first saw the posting, but before suggesting to drop the priority, I tried it myself. Even in low priority, the package configuration never asks for screen resolution, color depth etc. I can confirm that xserver-xorg is not asking for resolutions and stuff like that. I've tried it myself some time ago, and I had to manually edit the xorg.conf file to suit my new monitor. ii xserver-xorg 7.0.22 the X.Org X server I do to. The first time i installed it, it asked me the desire resolution but not anymore... the desired resolution didn't work as i spected, and my monitor is from 2002, i don't think it's quite old. I selected 1152x864 @75Hz and it's not working, i have 1024x768 @90, and i just don't get it... maybe it's about the driver thing?

Re: Debian AMD64 - any 32bit compatibility?
[EMAIL PROTECTED] escribió: Hi. How to use 32 bit programs in debian etch testing amd64? When I want to run any 32bit application that uses external libraries I get an error message telling that the libraries cannot be found. And I don't know from where I can get the 32bit compatibility libraries for my debian. For example I cannot use 32bit openoffoce.org and the unofficial 64bit one sucks. There are no 64bit java and flash plugins for firefox, and I cannot run 32bit firefox, because of the lack of 32bit compatibility libs:( Other distros (eg. FC, I used it once) have compatibility libs. Even my graphic's card's driver vendor (nVidia) gives 32bit compatibility OpenGL libs with their 64bit drivers. Are there any system-basic 32bit compatibility libs for 64bit debian?? Where to get 'em from? Tomek In case of Firefox you can use Swiftfox. It's the same Firefox but optimized for AMD64...
