You must have enabled it when compiling the kernel. Recompile and make sure it's disabled (it should have been disabled by default).

If you are getting unresolved symbol errors then it means you are doing something wrong, like trying to compile an old ALSA against a newer kernel.

Re: need help with ip-forwarding
Ipchains alone won't do portforwarding. You need ipmasqadm as well. I know it's braindead but that's how it is, hopefully in 2.4 there will be a unified interface to all those nifty ip forwarding features.

Re: wu-ftpd (2000-06-23 security-fixed frozen version) constantly crashes
Use ProFTPD. It has a MUCH better security record, is fast, lightweight, and configuration is a breeze if you have ever configured Apache.

logrotate depends on mailx - mailx does not appear to be available (woody)
Hello, I did apt-get update the other day, which informed me that the mailx package was 'obsolete', so of course I purged it. Logrotate apparently depended on this package, so I got rid of it too. Now when I try to install logrotate again it says logrotate depends on mailx mailx does not appear to be available So how in the heck am I supposed to rotate my logs now? Lee
Re: VMWare, Samba, and Slink
With VMWare 2.0 on my box (Celeron 300A @ 450mhz, 320MB RAM, Quantum 10K RPM LVD SCSI drive on an AHA2940U2W, TNT2 Ultra w/ 32MB video ram), Win98 SE is sluggish but usable, like on a P233. The thing that really kills usability for me is that the mouse is slow to respond - there is a noticeable latency between moving the thing and seeing the pointer move. I couldn't come up with a way to fix this. Word, IE, etc. seem to take only a little longer to load that in native Win98, but that damn latency keeps reminding you that it's not native Windows. If they can fix it with the mouse it would be tolerable for most other things. It's like going back to dialup after getting used to DSL - a hassle but you can get things done if need be. But it beats the hell out of having to reboot to use Word. HTH, rlr Jeff Noxon wrote: > > Is VMWare 2.0 significantly faster than 1.x? I used it for a while and > gave up. >
Upgrade Red Hat -> Debian without losing /home?
Hello, I have an old Ultrasparc with Red Hat 6.2 on it, which on this box is at least as unstable as anything from Microsoft. Networking will mysteriously stop working every few weeks for no reason. Changing kernels has no effect. Maximized windows cover up the GNOME panel regardless of my settings. The only solution I have found is to periodically reinstall. Can I replace RH with Debian without losing /home? Everything is on one big partition, and the machine doesn't have a floppy. Thanks, rlr
Re: purging X from debian installation
I am having basically the same problem, except that I built XFree86 4.0 from source and I use that as my X server. Almost all packages built against the older X libraries work fine, but dselect keeps bugging me to install these packages. Is there a way to get it to stop bugging me once and for all, instead of having to override dselect's recommendations every time? w trillich wrote: > > i'll wind up reformatting and reinstalling, i can tell. > > i'm trying to get xwindows stuff off the hard drive, and > use only ncurses console/telnet/ssh interaction, and > server software -- but when i try to zap the xlib6 packages > (xlib6 and xlib6g) it wants to remove elvis, perlmagick/ > libmagick and a few other non-X-dependent items: >

potato libdb2 package missing from all ftp mirrors
Hello, I am trying to upgrade from Debian 2.1 to 2.2, and I am having a problem. The libdb2 package upon which many others depend is not in the right place on any debian mirror. All the links from the package download page on www.debian.org are broken. This is the error that apt-get upgrade gives me: Get:1 ftp://ftp.us.debian.org unstable/main libdb2 2:2.4.14-2.7.7.1.c [136kB] Err ftp://ftp.us.debian.org unstable/main libdb2 2:2.4.14-2.7.7.1.c Unable to fetch file, server said '/debian/dists/unstable/main/binary-i386/libs/libdb2_2.4.14-2.7.7.1.c.deb: No such file or directory. The only libdb2 package available in the above location is libdb2.6_2.6.4-9.deb which is not the right one. Any ideas? rlr
