I have this ISO image: debian-31r0a-i386-netinst.iso I expected it to do straight Sarge/stable installs. But, it puts "testing" in etc/apt/sources.list and it seems, after the basic CD install is done, to install Etch/testing stuff. Can someone explain what is going on to me?
Moving on to a "testing" install on a Dell Latitude C600, I had sound working until I started installing Gnome stuff. Then, it stopped. One of the sound apps suggested trying running "esd". Here is what I get: --- [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ esd /dev/dsp: Resource temporarily unavailable [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ --- More help? Sound didn't give me any trouble on previous Ubuntu 5.04 and 5.10 installs on the same hardware. Also, the pointer sometimes works well and sometimes floats around on its own and sometimes goes on its own to a corner. The pointer gave less trouble on the Ubuntu installs. To get full display resolution, I had to copy /etc/X11/xorg.conf over from a running Ubuntu 5.10 "live". Can someone tell me how to better use the X config tools on netinstall? The correct configuration just magically appears in Ubuntu. -- Willie, ONWARD!
