And, AFAIK, the CDROM has to be on the primary IDE controller.

Hi everybody,
I am using Debian since two months. Last week I decided to make use of my
Soundblaster and I downloaded and compiled Kernel 2.1.43. Everything went
fine until I tried it out.
Some thing are working and some are not. I can use Xcdplayer or Xmixer. But
I can't use /dev/audio and /dev

Seems like you may've got your answer already, but I'd like to toss this
in: at some point, I don't now remember when, my rxvt stopped paying
attention to X resources written as "RXvt*", but would recognize them
written as "rxvt*", all lowercase. I'm pretty sure it was a Debian rxvt

IIRC, the nmh version does mbox by default instead of mmdf.

Why not send mail yourself?
Simply configure sendmail to masquerade as your ISP. Then, your
Phil is on the right track. libc5... is a base package and gets
installed during the base system. the other thing you could try is to
dpkg --help and take a look at the force and remove options. try not to
install base packages as much as possible.
When installing debian you should look at

What version of the bootdisks do you have ?
You shouldn't need to upgrade libc5 after a fresh instal... You probably have
something very wrong.
I'd suggest getting a new set of bootdisks and restarting from scratch.

I'm not sure. You can check to see if they are compiled into the

Has anyone got any suggestions for an X-capable threaded

Currently I'm using xmh and it's just not cutting the

just need multiple inboxes, which it doesn't do :(

My understanding, which was supported by the man-page quote
elsewhere
I want to install debian on a laptop. The Debian installation guide has a
section called "Configure Device Drivers". In it it says:
There is a menu selection for PCMCIA device drivers, but you need not use
it. Once your system is installed, you can install the pcmcia-cs package.
But I want t

EXMH is much better. The latest unstable version is 2.0delta. I don't know

Investigate the MH (or nmh) command packf.
