Etch na starym sprzecie
Witam, wpadl mi w rece, w firmie, stary nieuzywany juz lapek Toshiba tecra 750cdt pentium-mmx 233mhz 90mb ram hdd 5gb. Generalnie lapek calkiem spoko daje rade jako maszyna do pisania a i nawet w x-ach mozna sobie popracowac (fluxbox). Jest calkiem calkiem wypchany roznymi badziewiami jak kontroler scsi, usb, karta S3 z svideo i tvout, pcmcia jakies wejscie na jakas kamere, irda i karta dzwiekowa. Generalnie poza tym ze jest troche wolny i czasem trzeba do niego troche cierpliwosci to niczego sobie sprzet i jeszcze troche mozna go po eksploatowac. Pytanie do Was mam nastepujace, bo samemu niewiele udalo mi sie znalezdz: Zna ktos jakis manual albo dobre howto jak odchudzic debiana z niepotrzebnych uslug coby sie szybciej laodwal? Jakis taki opis procesu bootowania z komentarzami co mozna powylaczac. Wlasnie jestem na etapie kompilacji kernela i wywalaniu niepotrzebnych sterownikow i modolow zeby obraz byl jak najmniejszy ale tez idzie mi to jak krew z nosa bo czytajac opisy w helpie do danej opcji w jadrze nie jestem czesto pewien czy to jest w moim przypadku potrzebne czy nie a jedyne opisy konfiguracji jadra jakie znalazlem to jedynie zebrane (ewentualnie przetlumaczone) opisy z wlasnie helpa z kernela. Jaky ktos znal tez dobre howto o konfiguracji jadra i narzedzia diagnostyczne co bym sobie sprawdzil jakie dokladnie te chipy w tym lapku sa, to by bylo extra.

Re: bluetooth in etch
Marcelo Chiapparini napisał(a): Hello, I am running etch and I want to use bluetooth in order to synchronize my cel telefone (motorola z3) with the desktop. I got a bluetooth usb adapter and now I have to configure etch to use bluetooth. I googled a bit and found the following pages: http://www.howtoforge.com/bluetooth_pand_debian_etch which seems pretty complex to me, and http://www.stolk.org/debian/bluetooth.html I wander is does exists an standard bluetooth guide for etch... Thanks in advance Marcelo It depends what do You want to use the blueooth for. My guess is that You want to donload/upload files from/into a cell phone. The lilnks You found describe, as far as I understand, how to connect devices via usb to create some sort of wireless network (but maybe I' wrong) I tried to sync my samsung e250 also only to download/upload stuff but after a while I gave up :(. I couldn't find a good how to about bluetooh and phones. If You browse the list a while back You should even find my post here but there were no answers.

So I decided that I completely redesign the desktop. Now the work is complete and I wrote a short article in my blog about the redesign process. The article includes screenshots and original artworks. Do you like the redesign? You can read the article here. http://jozmak.blogspot.com/ Jmak http://jozmak.googlepages.com Now you can have a huge leap forward in email:* get the new Yahoo! Mail.* http://us.rd.yahoo.com/evt=40705/*http://mrd.mail.yahoo.com/try_beta?.intl=ca Hi, In beautifying the desktop You can also use Quingy ( http://qingy.sourceforge.net/ ) insted of gdm. It's more themable, I think, than gdm and it's certenly much lighter than gdm. If You want to have system monitor for cpu usage and other statystics then conky (http://conky.sourceforge.net/) is Your best choise. regards -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

enlightenment news server
Hi All! I'm having trouble customizing a theme in the enlightenment under etch. Sourceforge.net holds a couple of mailing lists on developing and using enlightenment. I'd like to view and post to those lists via thunderbird (...sory, I ment icedove ;) ) but I can't find what news server holds them. I don't know what server name I have to put in the newsgroup account configuration in icedove.

Re: Etch on X86-64

I'd love to hear from people using this particular port and their experiences. I've heard various things here and there e.g. Linux doesn't use both CPUs on the Core 2 duo. Is this a load of nonsense? thanks in advance, Ananda I'am useing sarge on amd64 on two Opterons (not dual core) an it runs with no problem useing both cpus.

conky and enlightenment on etch
Hi I have few questions about conky usage. 1) Does conky has some sort of maximum length of .conkyrc that it can parse? I have as much as 10 - 15 partitions but I cant display file system usage of all of them. Currently i display only 5 of them. When I try to add more image of displayed by conky get scrambled. 2) I want to use the $diskiograph but $diskio but I cant get it to distinguish between my two hard drives. ${diskio /dev/hda} and ${diskio /dev/hdb} display the same value. The same goes to $diskiograph. Does these variables return only average disk IO? 3) I set max width of conky window to 300px. when I try to maximize any other window to full screen it only maximizes to full_screen_width-300px. Conky window is set this way: # Create own window instead of using desktop (required in nautilus) own_window yes # If own_window is yes, you may use type normal, desktop or override own_window_type desktop # Use pseudo transparency with own_window? own_window_transparent yes when I draw conky to root window with own_window no I can't get it to display on all desktops My window manager is enlightenment e16.7 Thanks for any suggestions Jakub Narojczyk -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Re: partitions
michael napisał(a): I'm not sure if I'm messed up here but all advice welcome: I used the WinXP setup CD to delete existing WinXP 32Gb partition, created 2 new 16Gb partitions, then made some spare space at end a new partition too (it may have been 2 new partitions). WinXP installed okay into one of the partitions (didn't create a filesys on the others). but then it seemed had to change from hda3 to hda6 to boot Debian and then when do gpart/parted it gives a smaller no. of partitions than the XP setup made and has a couple with same starting point (byte? cylinder?) I then deleted the new partitions (leaving WinXP in the new but smaller partition) but still Debian (eg parted) only sees 3 partitions and two of them start in same place.

Re: problem with system clock

I am experiencing a problem with system clock infact it suddenly started running at half speed ( means that if i run sleep 2, it takes more or less 4 seconds to complete).

Under 3.1 I've generated a modeline with xvidtue and placed it in XF86Config-4 in the monitor section. It worked just fine. Under 4.0 on the oter hand it doesn't. I generate a modeline with xvidtune but when I restart X with a modeline added to xorg.conf the display is shifted. Modeline it self does something becouse when I comment it out the shift is different but it doesn't do as xvidtune shows it should. Any suggestions?
