I'd just go for 2.4 though, and compile DRI support. when i can get money together, i plan on buying a radeon. until then, i'm stuck with this voodoo3, but i'd really like to play some games. can some kind soul give me advice on how to get this video card working? much thanks!!! pete

It works fine on two computers, but on another (with the same version of CUPS, installed at the same time, and with nothing particularly odd about the system config) I can only use the IPP backend. this is some kind of timing issue. keep doing a /etc/init.d/cups restart and then look at the printing backends and they should keep changing. you can either use version 1.1.16 off the cups web site, or go with the other soluting mentioned and use lprng and magicfilter, which is what I did. When I try to add a printer from the web interface, I'm not even given the option of using anything besides the IPP backend (which is listed twice) or a disk file. As you can guess, this makes setting up a local printer more than a bit difficult. I've tried dpkg --purge on all the CUPS packages, deleting all of the config files just to be safe (well, really just the /etc/cups directory), and reinstalling all the packages multiple times, but the other backends just won't show up. They are there in /usr/lib/cups/backend, but for some reason CUPS is not detecting them. I can print to a network CUPS server with no problems. I'm really at a loss as to what the problem might be. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

While you're building it take a look that directory, it has a bunch of examples for pam.d configs. you may want libnss-ldap, too, but that means you're storing posixAccounts in the ldap server. pam doesn't seem to produce much debugging inyformation, but it did produce some lines saying incorrect (or was that insufficient?) credentials.. this is wether I have it bind as the admin acccount or not. yeah it doesn't. i had a heck of a time setting it up myself. i can help you out if you need more help, but you probably want to CC me because I don't keep up with list on a regular basis. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'd be really suprised if there were no debian-specific info out there, given that the whole debian cluster seems to use ldap for everything. which debian cluster? thanks as always, nick [EMAIL PROTECTED] * http://www.fargus.net/nick Developer - Systems Engineer - Mad System Guru - MOO Sales He picks up scraps of information/He's adept at adaptation Because for strangers and arrangers/Constant change is here to stay -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Re: dropped out of potato install sequence
I'm not sure how to recover/restart the install, and don't see a troubleshooting section in the fine manual that covers this contingency. Running dselect shows a much more detailed package listing than was displayed during the install dialogs. Is it possible to run a command to run through the install profiles (tasks) from the command line? yes, try apt-cache search ^task and apt-get install task-package after that. if you already have the stuff selected you can type dselect and go to install and just press enter a few times and it should start installing the stuff you selected later -- Ken Irving [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

ldap and sasl
Hello I'm trying to set up an ldap server with sasl authentication. I'm using this on potato with mit kerberos, so i've recompiled cyrus-sasl with the mit kerberos stuff, and then compiled openldap after that. that appears to work and i can add entries with simple auth, and i can search with sasl/gssapi auth. the problem is i can't put in something like this: rootdn [EMAIL PROTECTED] and add entries with that dn. i get this: node0:/home/awettste/MigrationTools-27# ldapadd -h node0 -D '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' -f entry.ldif SASL/GSSAPI authentication started SASL SSF: 56 SASL installing layers adding new entry uid=awettstein,ou=People,dc=node0,dc=cait,dc=org ldap_add: Insufficient access additional info: no write access to parent ldif_record() = 50 what am i missing? from the documentation it looks like that should be sufficient. thanks andy
