I have just tried to install Debian on a machine with an Adaptec AHA 2940 SCSI
adapter. When I run install from DOS (or boot from the rescue floppy) the
machine hangs after detecting the SCSI adapter
I have just downloaded and installed the image and headers for the 2.2.10
kernel, and I am now getting the following error on boot
SIOCADDRT: Invalid argument
Does anyone know what the program is?

Hi,
I would like to set up the latest version of GNOME on my debian 2.1 (slink)
box. However I do not know what is the best way to go about it. Can someone
please point me to the best way to install gnome without using apt. Would the
it be best for me to use apt (as described on the gnome
, any subsequent
ones I try to start fail. Other applications (e.g., xterm) seem just fine.
Thanks, in advance, for any help.

Hi,
I had a similar problem when I used pppconfig, but i just had to do a

Hope this help
Graham.
Hi. I'm having some trouble with my ppp.
It works, but it kind of locks the applications that are trying to get
connected
The command your looking for is 'chmod 710 /root/.fetchmailrc' NOT chown
which changes the owner of the file.
Hope that helps
Graham.

I'm running slink with the 1.0 gnome update. I'd like to be able
to compile a program using the CVS versions of the libraries, without
stuffing up the existing pre-compiled programs. How do I set up these
libraries so that existing stuff gets linked to the Debian-compiled
libraries, but anything
series supports these controllers. I suppose I should
get busy and build a set of boot floppies that uses this kernel.
If you do that, can you make an announcement if you can make them available?
Otherwise, I guess its down to waiting for the official potato release...
