Bug#526595: bug 519774: dns resolution error with libc6
Package: libc6 Version: 2.9-4 2.9-8 2.9-9 I too have been bitten by this bug. Essentially, name resolution quits working with many apps. What is especially bad about this bug is that it also effects aptitude! As you can imagine, this can lead to a really bad catch22 situation. Especially for users less proficient with Debian and/or Linux. Version 2.9-7 is the only version without this bug. Versions 2.9-4, 2.9-8, and 2.9-9 all have this name resolution bug. Hope this information can be of some help in trying to track down the bug -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

Bug#489479: compatibility issue between xfce4-panel and recent dbus version
Package: xfce4-panel Version: 4.3.99.2-2 Experiencing issue in Etch. After upgrade of the following packages, xfce4 no longer brings up the xfce4-panel (panel missing when xfce4 starts and cannot get into settings to fix it). Also cannot bring up panel options from xfce4-settings applet. === [UPGRADE] dbus 1.0.2-1 -> 1.0.2-1+etch1 [UPGRADE] dbus-1-utils 1.0.2-1 -> 1.0.2-1+etch1 [UPGRADE] libdbus-1-3 1.0.2-1 -> 1.0.2-1+etch1 === I believe there may be some compatibility issue between the particular version/build of dbus and xfce4-panel. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Bug#482531: DPMS off mode issue with
Package: linux-image-2.6.18-6-686 Version: 2.6.18.dfsg.1-18etch3 I've noticed that since I've upgraded from linux-image-2.6.18-6 version 2.6.18.dfsg.1-18etch1 that I have been having issues with DPMS off mode. This began after the following upgrade: '[UPGRADE] linux-image-2.6.18-6-686 2.6.18.dfsg.1-18etch1 -> 2.6.18.dfsg.1-18etch3'. it is also present in version 2.6.18.dfsg.1-18etch4 as well. All other versions of Debian kernels that I've ran have not exhibited this issue. So I have a strong feeling the bug was introduced in 1-18etch3. What happens is that sometimes the system will not come out of DPMS off mode. This issue only happens at the virtual console, where as in Xorg, DPMS works just fine. The problem is a bit intermittent, but I have a found a way to make it happen more frequently, which I'll get into more detail further down. Essentially, when the buggy DPMS behavior happens, I'll tap a key like you normally do to get the display to come out of DPMS (power save mode) when at the console, but in this case it will show the display for a half second then go right back into DPMS off mode. The only way to bring it out of this buggy DPMS state is to pull the plug on my LCD monitor to have it completely power down/reset. What tends to trigger it the most is when I exit xfce4 (version 4.3.99.2). As soon as it exits Xorg from there and goes back to the virtual console it goes into the buggy DPMS state described above. I've noticed that it tends to happen more rarely when exiting icewm (version 1.2.28-4). However, sometimes it will happen just when the virtual console has had a chance for be idle enough for DPMS off mode to kick in. Just for reference, this is in Debian Etch/stable which you may have already guessed from the versions of the packages I described above. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Bug#461503: upgrading xserver-xorg-core in etch causes corrupted display of icons in window manager
Package: xserver-xorg-core Version: 2:1.1.1-21etch2 If you upgrade to this version of xserver-xorg-core in Debian Etch, it causes some icons in icewm window manager to display in a corrupted manner. The actual pixmaps themselves are not corrupted. They're just rendered in a manner that is. Other WMs and DEs may possibly also be affected. Downgrading back to version 2:1.1.1-21etch1 fixes the rendering problem. So it definitely is an issue with version 2:1.1.1-21etch2 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
