Re: Kernel Recompile from 2.6.8-11-amd64-k8
If I apt-get kernel-source-2.6.8, and compile it with /boot/config-2.6.8-11-amd64-k8, will I lose any functionality in the kernel? I am not sure about this, though it worked fine for me. I don't have linux-wlan-ng available through apt-get; if I download the source from elsewhere, will I be able to compile it against a locally compiled kernel I did that a while ago (I believe with stock kernel sources) and it worked fine too. I am not sure but kernel-headers for your installed version may be sufficient to compile linux- wlan-ng haroon -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

Re: apache and java
Hi, You don't need in to install any JVM for the base system. I always install isolated copies. I am using IBM jre 1.4x for eclipse (since Sun's jvm is buggy) but use Sun's JDK 1.5 for Tomcat (code I am working on requires jdk 1.5). All you need t do is download tar balls and not the RPMs and then declare appropriate JAVA_HOME rather than exporting a JAVA_HOME to env. I have defined JAVA_HOME in my catalina.sh.

Do I need to set up a 32chroot for apache and sun java, or can I use pure64? I am not sure about this at all. I know if I wanted to play with java in my firefox and flash, I would need a 32chroot unless I wanted to go with blackdown and forgo the flash, but what if I just wanted something for local serving for dev? You can run of course Apache on AMD64 and there is a 64-bit release of Sun's JDK 5 for AMD64, as well as a 64-bit release of IBM's JDK 1.4.2 for this architecture. However, if you want to use the Java plug-in, you need a 64-bit of it, which I think Blackdown might have available, but the others don't. I still chose to install Blackdown's Java Plug-In in the 32-bit chroot because the latest official release of their JDK has no debugging support (at least not from Eclipse). They said on this list I forgot to add that I didn't want to install it in the base system, because I didn't want to mess up with the other two JDK's I have installed for development. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Re: alsa-tools on debian amd64
Hi Norv, I just compile that tool fine on y system I am using debian-pure64 with some gcc4 packages (had not down graded yet) but alsa* are all non gcc4. I also have ia32-lib installed and am using 2.6.12-rc2 with [*] Kernel support for ELF binaries Kernel support for MISC binaries [*] IA32 Emulation [*] IA32 a.out support I doubt generated binaries would be of any use if you want to try let me know and I can send binaries Haroon Norval Watson wrote: I would like to install alsa-tools to manage my M-Audio Delta soundcard. * This package is not yet available for Debian amd64. * There is a Gentoo .ebuild package for alsa-tools for AMD64, I can't find info on getting the source or converting ebuild to deb. * I have alsa-tools working on 32bit Demudi partition, could or should i use 32bit alsa-tools with chroot? * There is alsa-tools package awaiting sponsorship for Debian by Mikael Magnusson, I presume 32bit.

Your of course I pay by the minute, otherwise I wouldn't have sent these mails :( system is working now or not? So no hurry to switch. my system is working fine, but I can't install new packages, eg. -dev packages that I need to compile some stuff. same I here. I still have few -gcc4 packages. If you need to install some -dev packages re-install their dependencies only from pure64 and then try to install -dev, it worked for me. I just downloaded required packages manually and used dpkg to install "downgrade" gcc4 versions; I am not sure if it is 'right way' but worked for me.
