I've just blown 1.18 away so I guess that was the last version I tried and I

Cheers, I'll have to use that method, however, I'd rather a cleaner way.

I wondered if I should have anything like a dmesg or other log to record the
boot-up messages? I've had problems with booting but can't find a log

Hi All
I thought that the compilation of packages wasn't dependent upon kernel source
code as we'd installed the kernel header package. However, I cannot compile
ndiswapper 1.5 with a kernel greater than 2.6.15*, I don't have the kernel
tree in /usr/src/ so don't understand what's going on.

I'd not have the confidence just to reinstall GConf as I didn't know how it
would affect the database. But as you pointed out that gnome-session was
correct in pointing to GConf as being at fault, I just rerun the installation
of GConf then gnome-session and it went without a hitch.

Hi All
I thought that I'd install gnome 2.14 as I'd like to give orca a try. So I
looked on the gnome site, and found a list of packages to install 2.14. The
third package in the sequence is gnome-common. Which I first thought was a
vertual package. I looked via google and found that debian

I wondered if anyone could help with a couple of questions I have in regards to
setting up samba?
The first isn't about samba but a group called "wheel" this vaguely seems
familiar in a slackware install? I found this reference to it in the samba
mini HOWTO.
