Problem starting X

2002-01-30 Thread Stuart_Luscombe
Hi all, I thought I would mail in while I am at work seeing as it's not that busy here at the moment. At home, I have just installed X from sid and when I try to run it, it is coming up with an error to the effect that it cannot find module 'dbe' and that the 'extmod' subsection is invalid.

Hi, Here in the UK, our main telco BT supply the Alcatel Speedtouch Home USB (at least I think it's called that, it's the Alcatel Speedtouch USB anyway). It looks like a blueish manta ray. There are both closed and open source drivers for the modem, but I haven't used them for a while as I

Try linuxconf (apt-get install linuxconf). This will let you setup you NIC settings and various other things, services, users etc. -- Stuart "Florian Effenberger" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> on 31/10/2001 10:13:27 To: debian-user@lists.debian.org cc:(bcc: Stuart Luscombe/COSS/CCenter) Su

I think I saw an error on bootup about these, a friend suggested it may be a permission problem on the directory. Should I do a chmod on it? If so, what numbers should I give it? -- Stuart "Michael C. Alonzo" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> on 19/10/2001 15:58:57 To: debian-user@lists.debian.org

Help needed getting mail working.

2001-10-19 Thread Stuart_Luscombe
Hi all, I am running debian sid, and have fetchmail and exim installed. I collected my mail from an ISP's pop server using fetchmail, and it runs through and collects it OK, but then the mail seems to just vanish, as when I run mutt, all I get is '/var/spool/mail/stuart file not found'

OT: HELP! Cannot compile X from CVS

2001-10-17 Thread Stuart_Luscombe
I know that this may be off topic for this list, but with the lack of being subscribed to a X specific list, I thought I'd ask you guys for help. When compiling X from CVS, I get the following error which eventually kills off the build: make[5]: [i18nFramework.PS] Error 3 (ignored) groff: can't

Re: apt-get no X

2001-10-16 Thread Stuart_Luscombe
I'm also running with the same problem...I've only just installed X from cvs, so I haven't been back to dselect yet, but I guess that if you removed all traces of X from your current dselect settings, then it will not want to upgrade it?? Am I right?? -- Stuart shöck <[EMAIL PROTECTED

OT: screen command

2001-09-27 Thread Stuart_Luscombe
When I am SSH'd into a server and then use the screen command, how do I detach/re-attach the screen if I am in the middle of running a process (apt/vim document etc.). I have read the man file and it talks about 'C-a' commands, but I cannot seem to work these out. I have tried Ctrl+alt, but this

2001-09-27 Thread Stuart_Luscombe
Thanks for the advice I tried the apt-get -f install libc6, but I was still getting errors. In the end, I downloaded it from packages.debian.org and ftp'd it down to the machine and then performed a dpkg -i libc6 This seems to have worked a treat and all is working again :) -- Stuart

Help all! Help for a borked boxen! I ran apt-get upgrade to the latest unstable version. All was going ok until the install phase where everything seems to have gone wrong. >From what I can gather, the whole problem seems to lie around libc6, most packages that won't install say something along

Apt and MS Proxy server

2001-09-25 Thread Stuart_Luscombe
Hi all, I am trying to run apt through my companies MS proxy server but I'm not having much success. I have read the man pages for apt and apt.conf, and added a line to my apt.conf along the lines of http::Proxy {"http:///luscombes:@msproxy:80/";}; but it still will not connect any id
