Answer to your posting:
Point the content of /etc/apt/sources to "unstable" or "sid" using http
connection to your nearest debian mirror server.
My recommendation: Do not do this. No offense, but if you are asking
this kind of question, you should get used to configuring system in

It's really quite easy. By default Debian boots to runlevel 2, and xdm
(or gdm, wdm, whatever is installed) is started at each runlevel. If
you want, for example, xdm to not start at runlevel 2, just remove
/etc/rc2.d/S99xdm. Booting (or merely switching) to runlevel 3, 4, or 5
will start xdm.

Basically, what you do is:

better anyway (more secure) and is pretty straight forward to configure

Carlos Laviola, thank you for your suggestion. Unfortunately, any permutation
of dpkg --force that I try returns the error about not finding ldconfig.
Apparently, I can't install ldconfig without having ldconfig.
Also, I can't find libc6 in source, so I can't try it that way.
Am I stuck?

I'm curious to know how one defines new aliases in '/etc/modutils/'. In
the past when the kernel fails to load a module that is requested, a
message will appear in the system log. I am not receiving any such
notification.
I assume that the aliases the kernel looks for are kept somewhere by

A BWNFSd failure comes up with every package I try to install or
remove--even with itself. I don't know what BWNFSd has to do with
anything other than itself and its dependencies. I'd love to use

I need to convert an ASCII text document to dvi, and I need to make the

without embedding any formatting directives in the ASCII document.

Not too many weeks ago I was looking for the same thing. I ended up with
the book Debina GNU/Linux 2.1 Unleashed. It does have 1120 pages in it but
as you indicate it is a little outdated. I run Debian 2.2.17 here in my
