I've got a Dell Inspiron 7500 with a NIC built into the docking
station (not a PCMCIA card). I've got a base Debian partition
running that was built from floppies.
Anyone have any idea how to get the NIC in the docking station
recognized so I can finish configuring Linux and really use it?

Whoops. My fault. I missed some details on my end. After I used to AHA
card for a while I replaced it with a Tekram 390 PCI. The 390 has an

According to bug #53088, support for the GNOME panel was recently added
to irssi (in potato). Now, I use a window manager which I believe is
GNOME-aware (fvwm2), but I don't use the GNOME panel. I upgraded irssi
tonight, and now when I start it it fires up the GNOME panel and fails

Saw this in the logs:
VFS: Disk change detected on device 16:40
What does it mean? VFS might mean "Virtual

The card in question is an Aureal Vortex 3D. After some fruitless
kernel-wrestling I discovered the only Linux support is with OSS. So I
got an eval license of that and compiled it for my system (kernel 2.2.13
SMP) However when I execute soundon and try and play something, there are

I spent this afternoon tweaking my home computer. I've got some nice

Case in point, I have a 32MB Diamond Viper V770 AGP video card which is
