Check the config of your ntp-server. Is your client-IP allowed to access the server? Is there any firewall between your client and your server? ntp uses port 123 udp. Is the ntp-server pingable?

Add snapshot.debian.org to your sources and install the old package: deb http://snapshot.debian.org/archive/debian/20110201T033133Z/ squeeze main You also can download the package and install it by hand. For example for i386: wget http://snapshot.debian.org/archive/debian/20110201T033133Z/pool/main/l/linux-2.6/linux-image-2.6.32-5-686_2.6.32-30_i386.deb dpkg -i linux-image-2.6.32-5-686_2.6.32-30_i386.deb You should set to hold that kernel-version to prevent upgrading to the new one by apt/aptitude again.

Become root (for example by using the command su), then run mv /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober /etc/grub.d/09_os-prober and update-grub2. Or run both commands with sudo (sudo mv... and sudo update-grub2).

Install it with 'apt-get install os-prober'. I only have installed Debian on my subnotebook, so I can not try it...

Re: Icedove 2.0.0.24 on Lenny
Why aren't you using the Google SMTP-Server (smtp.gmail.com)? Send mails with his Googlemail-address through this server. Normally mail servers are not configured, to accept every address as sender, only your address (name@isp.com) - because of spam.

Open the account settings. You should see something like this: http://cybernetnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/04/thunderbird25.jpg The field Email address (here: cybernetn...@gmail.com) is the from-field which you are looking for. You also can add different identities. When writing a mail, you then have the choice which address you want to use (drop-down-menu). To add a new identity click on Manage identities...

I have done some more tests. When upgrading linux-base the pointer is still visible. It doesn't matter using the touchpad or a mouse connected by USB. The point is, that the pointer is not visible.
