I had the same problem. I read somewhere that whoever did the packaging, didn't do this part quite right. I installed this package and the strange toolbar icons were fixed.

Deitel I have the first edition, but I understand that a second has been released with very few changes. This book is worth checking out. It has great examples, source code for the examples is online, and it's easy to read. I have not read either book you mention, so they may be as good or better.

There is some incompatiblity with these servers. This is what I did: ran X with the SVGA server $ startx /usr/X11R6/bin/XF86_SVGA then installed StarOffice without lockups. Downloaded the patch on their web site for S3 problems. Installed the patch. Changed the environment setting mentioned in the README that came with the patch. Started X as normal, ran soffice without problems.

A mirror of the USB project is at http://www.nv.org/linux/USB/snapshots.html I tried to help a friend compile a new kernel so that his USB mouse would work. We got it to compile without errors. The mouse still doesn't work. The guy working on USB does not write very good english. This is not a criticism, but rather an explaination, of why the instructions were hard to follow. Also, I believe he assumes the person reading the instructions has a good understanding of the linux kernel (which I don't claim to have). If you have any luck getting this to work, please send some help my way. My friend is currently using a serial mouse while his nice shiny new USB mouse collects dust. > > I would also like to know if can mount a fat32 partition. i have tryed mount > -t vfat /dev/hdc1 /mnt ( fat32 is on and 3rd hard drive ) but i get a error > message.

network question
This isn't really a Debian specific question. I'm running Debian 2.0 on a machine with 1 10baseT network card. I use this as a Quake server on my LAN. I would like to add a 10/100baseT card to it so that there are 2 network cards. I would then like to be able to run one 100baseT hub and one 10baseT hub. I have read that Linux will only detect one card on bootup. Is this still true for kernel 2.0.34? Would this work? Set card A with an IP of 192.168.1.1 Set card B with an IP of 192.168.2.1 For all machines on 192.168.1.X, set the gateway to 192.168.1.1. For all machines on 192.168.2.X, set the gateway to 192.168.2.1. So, the Linux machine would function as a gateway and a Quake server simultaneously. Does anyone see any reason why this wouldn't work?

These mice are supposed to be setup the same as an Intellimouse.
partition question
I have a linux partition that is running out of space. I have another partition on the drive that used to be NT, I toasted that partition and created another linux partition. I would like to put everthing under /usr on the other partition. I mounted it as /bkup. I tried to go under /usr and do a cp -rf * /bkup as root. I was then going to change the name of /usr to /usr.bak and change /bkup to /usr to test it. I ran into some errors. One in particular mentioned a circular symbolic link. I stopped at this point, because I don't want to make a huge mistake. So, does anyone know the correct method for doing this? Thanks, Wes
