What tool generates /etc/resolv.conf, and how do I change what it
generates?
I'm running today's potato. I need to change the contents of
/etc/resolv.conf (to change the nameserver line, and add a domain line
and a second nameserver line). I can do this with vi no problem, but
it's temporary: d
Hi Gregor. You can use the 'du' command:
$ du -sk /usr
1867575 /usr
This will tell you the sum total size of all files in all subdirectories
of /usr, in kilobytes (on my system, 1867575 kB, or about 1.87 gigs).
If you want the number in megabytes instead, use 'du -sm /usr'.
The -s option tells

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

Hi, I'm using Debian GNU/Linux woody -- except all my KDE packages (from
kde.tdyc.com) are potato.
On my system kwm isn't working. (or rather, /usr/bin/kwin isn't
working; kwm is a script that calls kwin.) The X server works fine,
as do other window managers such as sawfish and enlightenment. W
I have a Creative Ensoniq ES1371 sound card; loading the module
fixed the problem :)
dur, I shoulda thought to check this at the beginning :)

I just realized my response below kinda makes it seem like the problem
has gone away: but it hasn't. When running 'xanim foo.wav', I still
get the error 'Cannot Open /dev/dsp device', and I still need help
fixing that :)
sorry 'bout the confusion...
