Huge fonts
I am having quite a strange issue. I updated my xorg.conf to use dual monitors and now I have these really huge fonts when I use fluxbox for firefox and thunderbird. If I use gnome though it works fine, seems to be only with mozilla stuff. Anyone have an idea? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Can I simply change stable to testing in /etc/apt/sources.list and download cyrus 21 (withotu having to reinstall debian)? I wouldn't recommend going up to testing unless you're ready to upgrade a *lot* of stuff. Actually, you shouldn't run testing at all; stick to stable or unstable. However, Henrique (the Debian cyrus maintainer) has backports for woody, so you shouldn't need to upgrade. Just add this deb http://people.debian.org/~hmh/woody/ hmh/cyrus/ to your sources.list. I have actually had a Cyrus IMAP server set up on debian with SSL. You will need to use a 2.x version though for SSL, previous versions don't support it. If you want you can check out this link http://devslash.org/?topic=cyrus21 it's for a BSD box but most of the configuration is basically the same and it should get you on your way.

The sound module is also part of OSS; the ALSA equivalent is snd. My question is, how do I force the kernel to use the ALSA drivers and not load the OSS ones? It looks like your kernel image has support for both ALSA and OSS enabled, and both are getting loaded somehow. Make sure that sound, via82cxxx_audio, and ac97_codec aren't also in /etc/modules, or in /etc/modprobe.conf or any file it includes. Adam I am also using the via modules, I only compiled in the ALSA into the kernel and left all of the oss stuff out, and it works fine for me. --- Gerard Ceraso http://devslash.org signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part
nvidia vs ati
I am planning on getting a new video card. I have a nvidia geforce2 right now and it works great under linux. I have not had any problems. I have noticed that some of the Ati cards seem to have a bit better performance in some of the tests on the hardware review sites. I was wondering how the Ati support for linux is. My system is currently has an Asus A7N8X Deluxe with an AMD 2400+ and 1G of 3200 ram. ~gerard -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?
