Re: Why compiling.
People do compilation for many reason. They want to learn more. They want to run packages from source code. If you are going to compile kernel from source you can learn more details about kernel.

Re: Why is troubleshooting Linux so hard?
information usually is in them - whilst having other entries amid the list with what other things were doing at the time. I find Linux logs very frustrating to read for that reason since I don't know when an event is finished reporting or which items are relevant. 4) Logs need to focus on reporting on one thing and making sure it reports that one thing well. Other than formatting, I can't see many differences between syslog, dmesg and messages. Xorg.log is some help for troubleshooting misconfigured xorg.conf files (which are depreciated anyway) but not very useful if your X session burns down. kdm.log seems identical to Xorg.log except for a few KDE-specific entries. I had to uninstall my firewall because it kept writing firewall entries to messages (and stdout) and I couldn't figure out how to get it to stop. Why isn't there one log that only deals with hardware status and changes, another one that only deals with network status and firewall logging, another one which only deals with dumps and crashes and so on? Maybe I just haven't found the right manual yet that has all of these answers so I'd appreciate any direction.

My confusion about lenny and sid
It may be silly question. I suddenly noticed my /etc/debian_version. It contains sid/lenny. As I know that lenny is stable and sid is unstable . So my distributiion is stable or testing??? -- Wishing you the very best of everything, always!!! Kousik Maiti Registered Linux User #474025

Re: My confusion about lenny and sid
I run the command : #apt-show-versions It shows that all packages are stable and either uptodate or upgradeable . So can I assume that my OS is stable one???

Lenny is *now* stable, but wasn't always. I think you should consider yourself sid. You may want to dist-upgrade to improve the consistency. Start by reviewing /etc/apt/sources.list.

Kousik Maiti: Both are connected with Net. I think you need to explain a bit better. To me it looks like you are saying both of your interface cards are connected to the Internet (If I understand Marc correctly he's using an common abbreviation for Internet, Net) Yes both ethernet cards are connected to internet. Do you really mean both cards are connected to the Internet, if so, tell us a bit more about how you have them connected. I can't understand your question. I have two different cable by which I connect both interfaces. Are both of your interface cards the same type broadcom card? Yes both are same as I mentioned. There is also the chance that udev has identified a single card as, first eth0 and, second eth1 but that is not what you seem to be saying. I can't get it. I see the output of lspci command. It clearly shows both interfaces are present. Someone here can probably provide you with a useful answer if you first clarify.
