One answer, if you have not a mac mouse but a three button mouse or an
emulated three button mouse (2button, if you press both, it is like
pressing the midle button)
Just mark some text in a window.
Hhop to the place where you need to paste and do the middle click - it
is that simple :)

It is not a rule, but if you want to keep your system oand config files in good shape, it is better to use the deb packages as they provide the right dependencies for packages to follow. You still can install them with alien, but it is not advised because some information needed by dpkg is not provided and will leave the database of the software installed not in the best shape ... If you don care about the system being in a good state, just do what ever you want, install rpm, tar.gz - but you leave the system in inconsistent shape. kernel for example should be build with make-kpkg (provided by kernel-package) You should at least convert the rpm with alien to a deb (I think that is what it does :)) Ciao, mattHias -- __ _ __ * /\_/\ \ \_/ \_/ / * Matthias Wieser * / \ \ /* ICQ#: 12597522 * / /\_/\ \ \_/^\_/ *[EMAIL PROTECTED] * WW WW *

New packages must be treated manually by the debian ftp masters, where updated versions of packages that are already in debian get updated automatically. So, the updates for the kde-* packages got in unstable, while libqt2 still sits in the incoming directory. So, depending on the workload of the ftp masters, I guess libqt2 will be in unstable today or tomorrow. If you want to try kde2.1 *NOW*, you can grab the libqt2 and related packages from a mirror of debian's incoming directory. You can find a link to it on the developer's corner on www.debian.org.

GRUB - LILO
I am interested how I can make GRUB my favorite boot loader. Right now make-kpkg wants to run Lilo. I just need to get the files in place and GRUB will do the rest, i can change the menu, if necesary by hand. By the way, why are many using Lilo. In my opinion, GRUB does not break as easy. Once running, it is good for starting. The reason, you can already explore at boottime the whole file system. Thus if your kernel-build goes wrong, you just start an other kernel.(even if it is NOT in the boot-menu) (think about broken lilo, it won't start ... and if some lines are missing, there is no old kernel to boot) Or do I miss an issue about the GRUB?

Wishlistitem: Place to look up Softwareproject <-> Debs packages that contain it
Being a debian user for some time, I am missing one place. I want to have a search on Softwareproject and it gives me the possible Debs, if there are any. (official ones) (you may say:) But that already exists somewhat, but there is no place where to post the apt-get resources, where I can find a special package. EG, it was hard for me to locate pine, because it is not on the ftp server. On chance somebody posted what line I have to add to my source.list. It would be nice to have a databank that contains all that information. The query would look like this: package name (like a tar.gz name or title of an opensourceproject) and giving back: Either: a)lame (official package) (... info ... to it) lame (devel-packages) -> link to more information This wouls make it easy to locate daily snapshots. b)lame (unofficial package) (warning ... info on it) c)lame - sorry not available right now (please make a source install) The information for that has to be provided by the packager at some time. (but there could be some innovative way to update information) One more thing: it has to reveal information, where to post a bug to, or even better provide a bug form, where i can mak a official bug report. (you may say):Right now, there is that for every debian package. my opinion: yupp - but some of the bug-reports should be sent upstream and have nothing to do with debian way of packaging. I remember reading in the Debian-KDE-newsgroup, that you should not post kde related (not related to kde packaging) to kde.org (to many people did that obviously) I guess that could be also a wishlist bug against the bug tracking system, that it should contain a link to the upstream bugreport site.

Well that is just one address, I can point you to: http://kde.tdyc.com/ Here you will find a guide, where to find what you need (please go there :-), it has all the required settings.

It has to do with the debian policy, that only security upgrades are done during a stable release. (Potato being the stablke release) Of course, unstable has many of the nice KDE-packages. (But these will not suite a stable system). Just before Potato was released or shortly after, the QT-license changed to GPL or QPL, thus being able to include in the debian system. That is why there is a page that offers "homebrew" packages (no - they are only backports of the packages in unstable) I would guess, the next release may contain KDE (the next big release).

Well - A database just can go by name and probably you could put something like a "relation" table in there, thus somebody can say: That will work like product A.

I did not mean it was worthless information. It is all the information it needs, for an _advanced_ user to get his system set up correctly. That is not true for "newbies". Some of them do not like to spend hours surfing through docs, to find the information. (Some just say - well, windows crashes, but I just have to reinstall it - and it works again, but on linux just half of it works (and does not crash)- (just because the information is not available in the propper form for them).

As you said, the system should not have anything static, that could break because of new types of hardware, new buses (probably sometime IDE or SCSI will have something else).

Re: wish list -> My personal Debian User Manual Generator
> So who is going to contribute and maintain it? My hope is that debian user, who have already set up the system, can provide some information how they did it. It is true, there has to be some more information, how the system is set up and what kernel he is using. Someone using the manual should have the possibility to rate the entry. And that way you can see what is going wrong. (I hope) That information has to be also entered. (and the system behind has to figure out, what is useful). I want also a rating of the different parts of the manual, thus errors can be found quickly without getting everybody frustrated. > I think if you can get many success stories of people describing hardware > setup together and serve them verbatim to the audience interested in them > you would just have to write a search tool. It is true, that the purpose of this could be done by a search engine, but only to some content: you will have many links to follow up. (it is not one piece, whereas the upper thing should generate only one peace of paper and should take the user from the boot floppies up to kde/gnome whatsoever. (it is sometimes hard to know which modules make sense to load, and so on (already with the boot floppy disk)). Most documents found do not suite debian to 100%, that would not be the case in that generator. i want the user to have one source of information, thus he can be pretty suer that works and that does not work. It should be a source for hardware I want to by (I can look it up in the manual, if there is information, it says how well it is supported (that is information somebody has to provide)). (I came up with the idea, because I am myself sometimes to lazy to search, not because I would not find anything, but nothing that matches exact what I need. I also watch people get frustrated, if they do not know, where the first place is to go.) It is right, there is a lists-search, but th bad thing about it: It sometimes just does not give you the best hit or information you just look for. That is why I was looking for something, that collects information by topic, does not have any information 1 times in there. and in my mind, the propossed was one solution I saw. But I see also many difficulties for the project: -> Wrong information provided (how can I possibly know, if the inforamtion is right) -> Software changes (kernel - user software) -> new Hardware -> things that just have problems when are together on a system -> printer: more then one possible driver (CUPS, lpr, ...) and as you said is you said, the scripts searching for valid information is pretty easy, but the structure of the database will have the most importance for the whole thing to work.

wish list -> My personal Debian User Manual Generator
I was looking for a information to setup my whole computer but I could only find parts of it all all. That is why I looked how there could be a way how user can share important information, without getting some questions asked 1 times only because there is no real Nr 1. place that is easily to use. now my idea is, that there should be place, where you can just enter your system parts, and it will return a "user manual" just covering the parts your really need. And recently i had to learn more of php and mysql and I think it is possible to implement such a thing as a user manual generator: It would work like that: People who have already set up their system contribute information what they needed to get their system running. On the other side, someone can go through a menu, choose CPU, kind of bus system, usb-devices, printer, soundcard, network cards, isdn-card. after choosing all that, it generates a tex or html output, or just plain text. That part can be done easily with an databank in the background. (just an query) This way, the this manual would have everything the user should need to set up the system, but not more information than needed. It will not overload the poor newbie with too much information. In fact, it is one of the reasons, I switched late to debian because i just could not find the information, I really needed. i would like to here your opinion about such an idea. Thank you, mattHias

I am able to use ping and can ping anybody. (numerical or names work) (Icq works, have not dound out what else works, does not work) how can I see, if I have eg a firewall? ( I mean the rules building it up? ) Has some of you an idea, how I can get closer to the troubles? I have no idea yet, what the reason could be. Thank you for the advice, mattHias Wieser Please also cc me because I only get the digest :-) -- __ _ __ * /\_/\ \ \_/ \_/ / * Matthias Wieser * / \ \ /* ICQ#: 12597522 * / /\_/\ \ \_/^\_/ *[EMAIL PROTECTED] * WW WW *
Re: SRC-install
> apt-get -b install package I wanted to use dselect, does it support it? ( I could not choose any package that was available in source) Or is there another frontend, that does support the feature, apt-get has? (I wanted to install everything while I am somewhere) (thus it would be convinient to have a tool to install everyting by itself.) Thank you for the fast answer before :-) Ciao, Matthias Wieser -- __ _ __ * /\_/\ \ \_/ \_/ / * Matthias Wieser * / \ \ /* ICQ#: 12597522 * / /\_/\ \ \_/^\_/ *[EMAIL PROTECTED] * WW WW *
SRC-install
Is it possible to force APT to install from source? I want to edit my sources.list that way, that apt just get's the sources and then compiles everything himself. is that possible or is that utopy getting into my mind? Thank you, mattHias Wieser (pls.: cc me, because of lots of the trafic I sometimes oversee mail-I just get the digest :) thank you :-) -- __ _ __ * /\_/\ \ \_/ \_/ / * Matthias Wieser * / \ \ /* ICQ#: 12597522 * / /\_/\ \ \_/^\_/ *[EMAIL PROTECTED] * WW WW *

When i am root, nothing happens. As soon as I log in as a user, I hardly can move the mouse, the rest is realy frozen ... It is probably a bug, but I have that problem just since today. Thus I have not researched what could be the reason. __ _ __ * /\_/\ \ \_/ \_/ / * Matthias Wieser * / \ \ /* ICQ#: 12597522 * / /\_/\ \ \_/^\_/ *[EMAIL PROTECTED] * WW WW *
RE: Re: apt-get, upgrade, /var/cache/apt/archives
My guess is you have to remount the partition and then it should work fine for u, at least you can fix ur problem. mount /dev/... / -o remount,rw (like that I think should make ur root partition writeable again) Ciao, matthias -- __ _ __ * /\ /\ \ \_/ \_/ / here I * Matthias Wieser * / ^ \ \ / come * ICQ#: 12597522 * / /\_/\ \ \_/^\_/ ;)*[EMAIL PROTECTED] * WW WW*
