I've built a package for ipgrab 0.4a1, a tcpdump-like utility
that prints out extensive Ethernet/IP/TCP/UDP/ARP header info.
It was built against libc5 so I don't know how useful it will be
for now. I'll upload it as soon as I get an account on debian.org.

Chris,
Please arrange for _every_ posting to carry "X-No-Archive: yes", or arrange
for the X-No-Archive headers to be preserved. I'm sure you can hack that
much in. If you can't, please stop distributing the bugs list until this
is fixed. There is no reason for anyone to go nonlinear about this.
Anytime I do "insmod sound" or run any program which causes kerneld to
have to load the sound module, my whole system freezes for a while --
between 30 and 60 seconds. Then it returns to normality and the sound
stuff works fine.
This problem doesn't occur when the sound module is unloaded either

This is not something that's critical at the moment, but we should
