My desktop machine used to have a big pile of .debs in /usr/local/src, and that was all fine. These days I use mini-dinstall to keep a local repository with current kernels in it (/usr/local/debian on the desktop, $HOME/debian on the laptop). The location of these things really doesn't matter at all. I've somewhat accepted the mantra that /usr/src is under /usr but not under /usr/local, so it's the domain of dpkg to manage it. And none of my machines have /usr/src/linux at all; having it would just confuse things. > - may I know what "char-major-10-135" is?

You can get rid of the error message by either building a kernel module that supports it (which one is somewhat obvious from having looked at the devices file; it's under "character devices" in the kernel config) or by aliasing char-major-10-135 to 'off' with a file in /etc/modutils. -- David Maze [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://people.debian.org/~dmaze/ "Theoretical politics is interesting.
