weird autofs behaviour

I installed autofs, configured it to auto-mount removable devices like cd-rom, cd-recorder, floppy under /var/autofs/console/ I have put the following symlinks in / : cdrec -> /var/autofs/console/cdrec cdrom -> /var/autofs/console/cdrom floppy -> /var/autofs/console/floppy now when I do a 'ls /'

pretty basic question!

Midnight commander undelete?

Greetings, [Please cc me in replies... Thank you.] I erased a file this morning on an ext2fs partition on a potato machine, and would like to recover it. So I looked through /var/lib/dpkg/available and found something promising-looking in mc. I installed, ran, read the instructions, and tried

imp/horde db_sql error strikes again

Hi *, I just upgraded imp from 2.2.0 to 2.2.3 - now I get this error: Fatal error: DB_Sql is already a function or class in /etc/horde/db_mysql.inc on line 12 It seems that DB_Sql is loaded a second time - but I can't find where. I found the error in the debian bug database - but it seems to be

kde/kwin is real slow

I'm using KDE 2.1 and the KDE window manager (kwin, which is started by the script /usr/bin/kde2). I love it, except that all the window ops are very slow. Switching focus between two rxvt's, for example, takes well over 500ms; so I'll do an alt-tab to switch from window A to window B, and I have
