I am not sure if someone sent this to the general list. autopackage is basically a distro neutral binary distribution packet. I just used auto package for updating gaim on my Ubuntu system. Pretty neat. Installation is pretty easy. I did it through the command line. http://autopackage.org/docs/howto-install/index.html -- Karthik Poobalasubramanain [EMAIL PROTECTED] -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

I've searched the archives of the mailing list but havent found a definitive answer to this question. How can I issue this command during system boot: ethtool -s eth1 autoneg off duplex full .. I tried putting it in /etc/boot.local, but apparently boot.local runs before the network settings are touched. Or, if anyone knows another way to keep the nic to not autonegotiate and full duplex, that would be fine too. OS: SLES 8 kernel: 2.4.x Thanks, Ryan
