How to compile kernel with debian?
Hello everyone, I used to have a slackware system and thus got used to the old rigamorole involved in compiling a new kernel. However, with debian, there seems to be more steps involved (at least, there are debian readmes distributed with the kernel source, and supposedly some sort of debian makefile). Can somebody please explain or point me towards where it is explained just exactly what is different between compiling a kernel on debian and compiling a kernel 'normally'.

Re: TeTex-Problem
Though I have yet to upgrade to TeTeX myself, I encountered this problem when I installed the old latex packages. As root, go to /usr/lib/texmf/ini (or the TeTeX equivalent) and, if there's a makefile there you can just type 'make' but otherwise type 'initex latex.initex'. This will create a latex.fmt which is the default format file it's looking for. M On Jun 15, 11:06pm, Gernot wrote: } Subject: TeTex-Problem | Im having a problem with the tetex-packages.

Re: [META] Use of the list for non-Debian matters
As long as we're talking about this list and filters, I just joined this list and I made sure I had a mailfilter going *before I even joined*. I mean come on people, there's always going to be noise on a mailing list. Filtering it is better then complaining about it. I recommend (highly highly highly) procmail, since it can do everything under the sun. My procmailrc file (or a watered down version thereof) is... PATH=/bin:/usr/bin MAILDIR=$HOME/Mail LOGFILE=$MAILDIR/proclog # recommended LOCKEXT=.procmaillock LOGABSTRACT=all# while debugging, make it log a lot :0: * ^TO.*maxmax ibm_junk :0: * ^TOdebian-user debian-user :0: * ^From.*jomsteve from_me But of course, now I'm not talking about debian specific stuff anymore.

Re: [META] Use of the list for non-Debian matters
Although the creation of a 'Debian-guru' list would have the same effect as creating a 'Debian-newbie' list. Everybody would ask their questions on the guru list since a. All the gurus would be reading it (obviously) b. None of the gurus would bother reading the regular list anymore (or at least not in any detail) c. Everybody thinks their question is really difficult and needs a guru to answer it.

list of names on the user list?
Hi, I was wondering if there is a way to get the list of email addresses that the user account gets sent out to. I'm interested in this partly because I've had a few people from the list write me and I can't write them back because their email address is bad, and partly because I want to avoid open lists - avoid spam.
