Re: How can I make a kernel package that is _identical_ to those available for download?

2004-12-29 Thread cancer
as far as i know xconfig should read the .config file of the running
kernel if there is no other. i have poor experience with that, but it
worked for me for a couple of times.

something wrong with eog, gthumb and gnome

2004-12-23 Thread cancer
I'm running debian unstable (upgraded recently) and i have problems
with eye of gnome and gthumb - i can't provide any error messages
because there is no - both apps just don't display images. also a
problem with gnome - i can't change wallpaper - i have the current
one, but when i add a new one just nothing happens. somehow i can view
*.gif image. strange, isn't it?
anyway - pornview is working fine, so i don't have any idea what's wrong
thank you.

This is accomplished by the following :

echo kernel-image-2.2.17 hold | dpkg --set-selections

GPM + Xfree86

2000-10-13 Thread Cancer Omega
I installed GPM and got it working flawlessly with my Intellimouse PS/2. Now, I 
start X, and my mouse will refuse to move. I commented out imwheel from my 
~/.xinitrc, same result. The only way I can get my mouse to work in X is to 
kill GPM.

Anybody else experienced this ?

Mutt's alias file

2000-10-13 Thread Cancer Omega
I have the following in my .muttrc :
set alias_file=~/.mail_aliases

and the following in my ~/.mail_aliases :
alias debian-user Debian User List 

Now, when I fire up Mutt and send an email to "debian-user", exim sends it 
right back to me, complaining that the local user "debian-user" doesn't exist.

What am I doing wrong ?

Thanks !
