There's a kernel bug operating here, I think. If you chmod 666 /dev/fd/2

I looked at this a little more. It seems that the object on the other
side of /dev/fd/X isn't always one that you have permissions on _after_
it's been opened.

This means device 3, 1, inode 7060.

Just like in a symbolic link.

The only thing you have to do is to customize the
/etc/dhcpd.conf file a bit to get it going on your machine. (That is if it
works for you)

I assumed that the logical approach would be to download the source to
dpkg and dpkg-ftp, install them, and then install some of the more
critical pacakges via ftp.
Well, the better thing to do is to

With the integration of color-ls directly into the fileutils

up aliases or shell scripts to colorize ls, dir, and vdir.
Here is an excerpt from a .bashrc which sets up aliases after

Hello DEBIAN user/programmers,
After kernel v2.0.0 I have been unable to produce any sound on my SB16
sound card.
Is there a known bug (up until kernel 2.0.15) in the SB16 code of USS that I
missed during my vacations?
The sparing comments in the source point to an IRQ or DMA conflict when one

libraries, so the aout svgalibs are
