Anyway, I tried using make-jpkg on both j2re-1.4.2-02 and j2re-1.4.2-01. Both have the same result -- they immediately crash at: http://games.yahoo.com/games/downloads/tx.html Can you please try that URL and tell me if firefox crashes for you? Firefox 1.0.4 crashes, Konqueror 3.4.1 works.

The same help of the option in kernels = 2.6.12 gave you a hint that it wasn't very safe in x86_64... however, i don't see any help at all in 2.6.13... Rafael Rodríguez El Lunes, 29 de Agosto de 2005 17:34, Ernest jw ter Kuile escribió: On Monday 29 August 2005 09:25, Rafael Rodríguez wrote:

I seem to be having problems when configuring my disk setup during the net install for sarge amd64. I'm trying to configure /home to be an MD within an LVM container. Although the install can configure it, when I've rebooted the install, and installed evms, then it seems the LVM container has

No, but I have setup an LVM physical volume on top of an RAID1 MD device before. I did it from within the Debian installer, and without issue. Are you sure this is not what you want? I'm not sure I understand the purpose of an MD device made from an LVM physical volumes... Same question

The fan of the laptop never stops with amd64

2005-08-29 Thread A, Manchado
I recently bought a Turion laptop with Knoppix-32bit preinstalled. The fan used to run and stop now and then. Now I have installed debian-amd64-testing and when the fan starts working (15sec to 30 sec after booting) then it never stops again. Furthermore, the battery lasts 30% less time approx.

Are you using powernowd? powernowd allows dynamic cpu frequency and core voltage scaling. For instance, my 1800MHz (1.5V) runs at 1001MHz (1.1V) most of the time. Of course, the side effect is lower power (heat) dissipation so the fan(s) can slow down. -Pascal On 8/29/05, A, Manchado [EMAIL
