Further more I tried the 2.6 kernel and the machine just went nuts only
because the SATA drives are suddenly seen as SCSI. Yes it is fixable but I'd
rather not customize it too far off the beaten path.

Has anyone set up a Printer Server with Debian OR know of a how-to? I

Setting up a print server is as simple as setting up CUPS and telling it
to listen on all interfaces (not just 127.0.0.1). You just setup CUPS

Hey;
What is any easy to use program to generate thumbnails from a 'full sized'
image?
I have tried many programs found using apt-cache search BUT either I am to
stoopid to figure them out or they really don't do what I want.
Fore xample:
convert image.JPG -resize 10% images.jpg complains.
My problems are,
1. The video display will only let me use up to 800x600 size whereas the
same monitor under WinXP would work at 1024x768. So how would I go about
correctly setting this in the base config?
You need to get the Horizontial scan rate and Vertical refresh rate for
your monitor.
I don't think that 2.6 does support RAID.
I just installed sarge 2.4 on a controller using Megaraid2 driver AND the
2.6 install failed when it tried to find the HDD's.
The 2.4 kernel installed w/o a problem.

No apologize needed, this list exists to help users.
But what is a megaraid2? And how do you supply it's drivers on
installation time to the installer? (if you can)
In the case of the Dell PE1850 I did not need to supply the driver. Debian
'found' it.
I am using a Dell raid controller on a PE1850 that has a create interface

Sarge has problems doing SATA installs.
I had to put it on 30 Dell machines. In order to get to work I had to go
into the CMOS/BIOS and change the HDD to Combination. Not sure what that
means exactly there was very little explanation there. I suspect it makes

After you did that, what were the SATA drive(s) in /dev?
The drive was id'd as hda not as a SCSI.
I think I saw a scheme where you fool the system into thinking the SATA are
SCSI to get them to
