Re: apache apt-get installation
Hello, chan henry schrieb: what can i do to fix the installation? try to remove apache again with "apt-get remove --purge apache" and then reinstall it. and how can i tell where the source directory is? Where do you have to tell this? I installed apache2 with php4 on my box and I didn't have to tell it the source directory. How did you try to install php? and if i were to install by compile from source, can i ignore the error? Why install by compile from source? Debian has packages for php.

Please check via "lsmod" if both modules are loaded. If both modules are loaded check the /etc/network/interfaces if both interfaces are listed there. Maybe the eth0 is not properly configured here.

Re: space concern
Mark Grieveson schrieb: From this, I determined that, for some reason, the var directory now occupied over 18 GBs. So, I subsequently run the command debian:/home/mark# du --max-depth=1 -m /var | sort -g, which indicated that most of the space was in /var/archives. The contents are: debian:/home/mark# ls /var/archives debian-20051024.md5 debian-etc.20051024.tar.gz debian-home.20051024.tar.gz debian-20051025.md5 debian-etc.20051025.tar.gz debian-home.20051025.tar.gz I had installed a program "backup-manager", which I tried to run, but since I saw nothing, I thought nothing of it. I now speculate that maybe it was creating repeated backups, given the dates of these files. So, for those more in the know, can I delete these files in /var/archives? I've since uninstalled backup-manager. And how should I backup my system? You should check if the files with date 20051024 have the same or nearly the same size as the files with date 20051025. If they have you can delete the files with the date string 20051024. The other files I would move to another drive or burn to a CD/DVD-RW if you have no other hard-drives. You should find out if "backup-manager" is able to make incremential backups, so that the whole drives is backed up just one time and in following backups only the files wich have changed will be saved. Having your real files and the backups on the same drive doesn't make sense to me, because if your hard drive crashes the backups will also be lost.

Try "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86" you will be asked if the scrolling wheel should be supported. Choose yes there.

Re: Is NTFS file system (Win2k) stable and usable with debian sarge?
J. Grant schrieb: For the other direction there is explore2fs which works about the same way. It gives you a somewhat "ftp-like" interface to download files from your ext2/ext3 file system into windows. It doesn't allow you to delete or modify the ext2/ext3 partition. Then the next time you boot Linux you can remove those files if you want. http://uranus.it.swin.edu.au/~jn/linux/explore2fs.htm Looks good, I'll have to give that a try. There's also a filesystem driver for ext2/ext3 which allows you to write and delete files on those partitions under windows.
