build-essential question
in build-essential package there are two files /usr/share/build-essential/list /usr/share/build-essential/essential-packages-list first contains (dpkg-dev,gcc,make,libc) and another one with a longer list with smaller utilities like (bash,coreutils,grep,gzip,...) . But the build- essential package depends on package mentiononed only in the first list.

Why can ubuntu dist upgrade dist from within an X session?
In release notes it says: "You should not upgrade using telnet, rlogin, rsh, or from an X session managed by xdm, gdm or kdm etc. on the machine you are upgrading. That is because each of those services may well be terminated during the upgrade, which can result in an inaccessible system that is only half-upgraded. Use of the GNOME application update-manager is strongly discouraged for upgrades to new releases, as this tool relies on the desktop session remaining active.

Re: How to match last part of fullpath in apt-file with a perl reg-exp?
a small correction of mine. i wanted to match not only last part but beggining of last part . so your solution is ok and thanks. Based on it with a small addition i can match the beggining of the last part of full path. So: 'm[^\/]*$' (why \ needs quoting? , i think is not special character in perl reg exprs) 'm[^/]*$' it will also match /bla/bla/blma And to match the beginning of the last part of full path : '.*/m[^/]*$ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Re: My syster reboots automatically when trying to shut it down.

Re: My syster reboots automatically when trying to shut it down.
firstly sorry for another mispelling. bootupdate->bios update method as for acpi packages the system has: acpi-support-base acpid.

xrand in KDM's Xsetup
I have two monitors 19' (on my left) 24' (on the right) Having configure in my xorg.conf a virtual area (3400,1900) i've managed to find the xrand commands to adjust the dual mode to my like. I tested the while logged in. But to automate the procedure i put them in /etc/kde4/kdm/Xsetup : #! /bin/sh # Xsetup - run as root before the login dialog appears #xconsole -geometry 480x130-0-0 -notify -verbose -fn fixed -exitOnFail -file /dev/xconsole & xrandr --output DFP2 --mode 1920x1200 xrandr --output CRT2 --mode 1360x768 xrandr --output CRT2 --left-of DFP2 xrandr --output CRT2 --pos 0x432 But after reboot (and whlle i get a hint by the position of the login screen - elevated in the 19' screen) that perhaps they xrand sequence was executed when i log in i get: $ xrandr Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 3280 x 1200, maximum 3400 x 1200 DFP1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) DFP2 connected 1920x1200+1360+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 519mm x 324mm 1920x1200 60.0*+ 1920x1080 60.0 1600x1200 60.0 1680x1050 60.0 1400x1050 60.0 1280x1024 75.0 1440x900 75.0 59.9 1280x960 60.0 1280x800 60.0 1152x864 60.0 1280x768 60.0 1280x720 60.0 1024x768 75.0 70.1 60.0 800x60072.2 75.0 60.3 56.2 640x48075.0 72.8 67.0 59.9 DFP3 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) CRT1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) CRT2 connected 1280x960+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 410mm x 230mm 1366x768 59.8 + 1280x1024 75.0 60.0 1280x960 75.0 60.0* 1368x768 75.0 75.0 1360x768 59.8 1280x768 75.0 60.0 1280x720 75.0 60.0 1024x768 75.0 70.1 60.0 800x60072.2 75.0 60.3 56.2 640x48075.0 72.8 67.0 59.9 Thus, i get resolution closed but not exactly what i wanted. and CRT2 left oF DFP2 BUT the position are not what i wanted.
