I want to play a CD using gtcd. It objects that it can't see the CD. Sure
enough, not mounted. Do audio CDs mount? Can I convince autofs to do the
job?
What's the best way to play a music CD in debian?

My friend has (had) Debian installed on his laptop. I got a call from him
this morning saying he can't boot his laptop anymore! I'm over his place

discovered all that is there is /lost+found and /root/dbootstrap_settings.

Hi,
I´ve just installed xfstt, put some TrueType Fonts in
/usr/share/fonts/truetype and updated the xfstt fonts list.
But i can´t use the fonts. First I tried them to use with konqueror, then
with the GIMP, but in no program they are available. xfstt-daemon is running.
any hints?

If you saw it in Software, etc. it is most likely 2.1(slink), as they are
usually horribly out of date with their distributions (they still have Redhat
5.2 at my local store). It the package has a VA-Linux logo on it, it is 2.1 as
