prevent um-imapd writing folders to $HOME?
I'm running debian unstable, and uw-imapd. Is there any way to prevent uw-imapd from writing its mail folders to $HOME, which clutters up things in the $HOME directory terribly? I'd really like it to put the folders in $HOME/imap-folders etc. I tried reading some notes under /usr/share/doc/libc-client2002edebian which said I could create an /etc/c-client.cf which could override the folder path for uw-imapd. Unfortunately, this didn't work for me. Thanks, -- Benjamin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
frozen-bubble won't load after moving to unstable
Ever since I upgraded from stable to unstable recently, I have been unable to execute frozen-bubble anymore. I've been getting the following errors: $ /usr/games/frozen-bubble Can't load '/usr/lib/perl5/auto/SDL_perl/SDL_perl.so' for module SDL_perl: libGL.so.1: cannot handle TLS data at /usr/lib/perl/5.8.2/DynaLoader.pm line 225. at /usr/lib/perl5/SDL.pm line 9 Compilation failed in require at /usr/lib/perl5/SDL.pm line 9. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/lib/perl5/SDL.pm line 9. Compilation failed in require at /usr/games/frozen-bubble line 52. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/games/frozen-bubble line 52. Does anyone have any idea how to solve my problem? I've tried setting the environment variable PERLLIB to include /usr/lib/perl5/auto/SDL_perl, but that didn't help either.

Re: sndconfig problems: sound only works until reboot
Joris Huizer [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: I think the problem is that sndconfig uses modules which are normally not active (temporarily activating them or something) - I allready found it uses a module called 'opl3' which was not active. I now have got the following sound modules installed: opl3, sb, sb_lib, sound, soundcore, uart401. I attached the /etc/modules.conf - I hope you can tell me what I am missing - I think it must be a module - because, what else could be the problem after a (re)boot ?? I think to make module XYZ loaded at boot time, you want to add the line XYZ to /etc/modules. For me, having a module-enabled kernel, plus adding the line sb in /etc/modules was enough for my sound card (Creative Labs SB AWE32) to be activated at boot time. -- Benjamin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

searching for what package includes a given file
I just successfully used Search the contents of packages from http://www.debian.org/distrib/packages to determine what package in stable provides GL/glx.h.

image viewer that refreshes?
I have a .jpg image that keeps changing (from a webcam). Is there an
image viewer in debian's packages that will display the image and
automatically refresh the image when it has changed? I've already
tried gqview, xli and display, and qiv. ('display -update 1' doesn't
update as advertised). Thanks,

Re: image viewer that refreshes?
Matthew Weier O'Phinney [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: I haven't used this, but I have used a number of other applications that work like this. Basically, giving 'display' the option '-immutable' and throwing it into the background makes display sorta kinda act like a server of sorts -- commands can be given to it. Which is where '-remote' comes in -- it's saying to 'display' to look for an already running instance of 'display' and then to change the image being used. Looks correct, although in my case, using -immutable for the first invocation of display causes later -remote invocations to close the original window. So, for me, the above paragraph is true, minus the '-immutable' option. (For the OP - had you considered loading the image in Mozilla/Galeon/Opera/Phoenix... and setting an autoreload on it, either via the tab/window preferences or using mozilla-remote?) Yes, that wouldn't be bad...unfortunately I can't keep a browser running for very long usually.
