As I don't use any SCSI tape I don't know where to point you. 8-( -- __ Cedric Bapst / /__ __ [EMAIL PROTECTED] / / D e b i a n G N U \ \/ / / / __ __ __ \ / / / / / / _ \ / / / / / \ ...Look out Bill, / /___ / / / / ) // (_/ / / /\ \ here comes...

ext2fs: bad blocks handling
Dear Debian users, Does anybody know how are handled the bad blocks on an ext2fs partition? Is there an automatic handling or must I always use the badblocks command and update the badblocks list with e2fsck? -- __ Cedric Bapst / /__ __ [EMAIL PROTECTED] / / D e b i a n G N U \ \/ / / / __ __ __ \ / / / / / / _ \ / / / / / \ ...Look out Bill, / /___ / / / / ) // (_/ / / /\ \ here comes...

Well, It didn't work... :( I am sending my /etc/init.d/boot for purposes of debugging, but... Thanks in advance Daniel. I'm using a swiss french keyboard a default keymap and the dead-keys work fine. I haven't installed any additionnal package for this. So maby it could be interesting for you to have a look at this file ( sf-latin1.map ) for this configuration. I've have also a problem with dead-keys with X11. I've just eard a friend who told me to have a look to the french-HOWTO. They explain something about a compose key. I need to look this document myself. Could you leave me ( and to the list ) a message about your results?

Re: Printer name
iquest wrote: Hi, I've purchased a Laser printer and I'd like to know how do I know the name of the print that connect to my Debian box. I am able to print files without any problem. I just like to know how printer name was created (if any). Thanks! Timothy C. Phan Have a look in /etc/printcap file. If you have only one printer, the first line of the printer definition entry should look like this: Printer name>[|Printer alias>|...]\ Now if you have more than one printer, there is there are two possibilities to define a default printer. The first is to set as printer name or printer alias the key word lp. The second is to define an environment variable PRINTER to the default printer name to use. Of course, if you have only one printer you can know you printer name with the second method too. These informations should be exact but I'm not on my Linux box actually. So if something is not exact, take a look in the lpr manpage. bye -- Cedric Bapst [EMAIL PROTECTED]
A ( simple ? ) question about configuration
Hello, I'm trying to use Debian Linux for two weeks and I have a small problem. How can we reconfigure a package? For example I've installed xbase and I would like to reconfigure it through the dpkg command. I tried with: dpkg --configure xbase But it said to me that the status is installed. What's the right way to do that? Cedric Bapst -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word unsubscribe to [EMAIL PROTECTED] . Trouble? e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
