If you are missing these two files, the afterstep, mailbox, and load graph icons will not show. ITS NOT A BUG, I had the same problem before and it's working fine now. I think these files are in xcontrib and xproc, I might be wrong, just search for them on debian.org -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .

You are missing xbiff. xload is a file in the package xproc. You need to install xcontrib (i think) which contains xbiff. If you are missing either xbiff or xload, 3 icons will be missing: afterstep, mailbox, and load graph -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .

You need to install xproc and one other package that inclues xbiff. When you installed both, the buttons will show.

Xemacs wont run under SU, is it normal?

newbie question,
Does debian use .Xresources or .Xdefaults at all? If not, what is the debian equivalent?

ppp-script problem,
my isp provider is my college, the dial-in pool does not automatically run ppp after connection. Local address is assigned dynamically. I log in (Username: Password are the login prompts), and type "ppp" on a prompt (prompt is "your destination >") to run ppp. So far, my ppp script is not working. It dials (and connects, I think, at least it makes that modem connection sound) but nothing happens after that. I would appreciate any help: dial-up script - #!/bin/sh # # /usr/sbin/pppd :128.110.124.120 file /root/.dunc/options connect "/usr/sbin/chat -v -f /root/.dunc/chatfile" /dev/ttyS2 38400 & /root/.dunc/chatfile "" atdt5813960 CONNECT "" rname:--rname: MY_LOGIN word: MY_PASSWRD "" ppp -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .

auto power-down via shutdown -h?
I used to run slackware 3.1 and similar to win95, everytime I do a : shutdown -h now, the computer shuts off (power off) automatically after "system halted." I switched to debian a few days ago, and I have to do this manually after the system is halted. It's a minor problem, but I would like to find out how I can tune debian to shut-off (power off) automatically after shutdown -h now -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .

missing cua*
I installed debian but somehow I only have /dev/ttyS*, no /dev/cua* files. I'm also not very sure how to set up my pnp modem. I ran pnpdump to create /etc/isapnp.conf, and uncommented the sections I needed, ran isapnp /etc/isapnp.conf and everything appeared to be ok, but in what script file do I place "isapnp /etc/isapnp.conf" and other initialization commands for it to configure every time debian boots?
