Re: KDE3
BTW, in order to install KDE 3 I need libqt3-mt >= 3.1.2, which is not available through packages.debian.org. Where can I get it?

Re: Problems with PHP4 & MySQL Packages
I don't know about the dying process bug. What I see is that var_dump
returns only garbage content. This bug made me discover the print_r php
function that does more that var_dump and my custom displayArray()
function.
Concerning the dying process, I don't see this behavior. I am mostly
uptodate concerning LAMP:

So it seems that you'll have to remap the keyboard yourself. The old way is using xmodmap; the new way is to use setxkbmap. Use xev to get the X keycodes, then remap to what you want. Another otpion to try might be in the ServerLayout section, add a line Option "CustomKeycode" which should use the Linux console keycodes. I tried it, but had problems with the modifier keys, so perhaps just using setxbmap first is what you'll need. Frank
Re: Problems with PHP4 & MySQL Packages
Hello, All:
To respond to Christophe's report that var_dump() is broken: If you replace
the var_dump() line with...
...apache/mysql/php exhibits the same behavior: All of apache's children
processes die. i.e., The problem not only seems to be with var_dump() but
*also* with...
A. The array returned by mysql_fetch_array(), or
B. The process of copying that array into the $_SESSION array.
(The technique of copying the entire record into the $_SESSION variable has
worked in the past on different architectures...)

I researched a little bit and apparently I will have to rebuild the kernel. Is that so? Isn`t that a dangerous thing for a newbie to perform? How do I do it? Well, I wouldn't say it's dangerous. But it can be a bit tricky. Are you sure you need to rebuild your kernel? There's s few ready made kernels in Debian you could try out, might be easier for a newbie :-) I would appreciate a lot some help. The other thing is that I can't put my USB floppy drive and my ZIP-100 drive to work. Once again in my little research I found out that it is necessary to "mount them". How do I do it? Is it needed to "mount/unmount" them every single time one turns on/off the system? For this I use autofs, set up to mount in sync mode and unmount after a second or two (I use a lot longer timeout for network filesystems though). Basically, I just pop in a CD, access the files I need, eject with the button on the front of the drive. Same with USB CF adapters and floppies. You'll need autofs enabled in the kernel for this to work.

So, to get that powerbook to work, you need - A fairly recent kernel, I recomment some 2.4.20-ben10 or 2.4.21-ben1 at least - Pass "nol3" to the kernel command line to disable the L3 cache which is currently causing me trouble on this machine (data corruption) - Make sure the kernel is compiled with the new config option to move the ATA/100 to "hda", that will make things easier Ben.
