Hi!
Dselect seems to think that there is a conflict in my package selection,
something that neither apt-get or console-apt thinks. Upon trying to exit
the package selection, this package conflict display appears, and I can't
get away from it, because changing anything brings it back:

I'm using jed with WordStar keybindings; how can I get it to honour the Home

That would be appreciated, since dselect currently thinks my packet

The problem is that I do not have a password file for samba, I don't use

Hi!
A recent samba update (in potato) rendered all my shares non-functional. For
some reason, no-one can mount anything, not even using the correct

claims that I have to enter a password for \\computername\IPC$

Where can I find information on the format of the files that are output by

Hi!
Is there a font editor included in Debian to let me edit the console fonts

Hi!
In Slink, I use this setup for /etc/kbd/config:
CONSOLE_FONT=lat1-16.psf
CONSOLE_MAP=lat1.uni
but in Potato, that doesn't work. So I changed it to
CONSOLE_FONT=lat1-16
CONSOLE_MAP=lat1.sfm
which doesn't seem to give the same results, especially not with regard to
the line drawing symbols.

Well, it's just that fpc seems to have been dropped as of Debian 2.1, and it
isn't in 2.2 either.

Hi!

Dselect. Has it been replaced with something else?
I need to be able to compile Turbo Pascal like programs, that's why I
installed fpc in the first place, because it's good at that.

Hi!
I'm having a problem; I installed my own inews (mini-inews from Slackware,
which posts directly to NNTP) to get uqwk to work (the inews that came with
Debian requires, for some strange reason, a local news server, which I don't
have). I updated the equivs package to indicate this.

I'm having problems running SIAG under Debian 2.1. The on-line help doesn't

That solved the problem... I had LC_TYPE=iso_8859_1 and

I was doing a "apt-get dist-upgrade" to update to the latest versions, when
installing the xserver-common package didn't work. This has now trashed my
X installation completely, so it doesn't work at all.
This is what happens when I try to install it:
# dpkg --install /tmp/xserver-common_3.3.2.3a
Where can I find a smbmount that works with Linux 2.2.0 in a Debian archive?
None of those I've found seem to work (the kernel complains about it being
the wrong version).
Please reply with cc to me.
