How to install proprietary drivers in Debian 6
Question 1 ) How I can get know about the hardware configuration ? Is there any method which can list down my hardware (not all) for which i am suppose to install proprietary drivers.. In ubuntu, it displayed ATI/AMD FGLRX kind of thing which got automatically installed. Ubuntu automatically make wifi work but in debian I use to get problems. Question 2 ) How to install proprietary drivers in order to make a system work. My system temperature increase and it shutdown automatically. I guess this is due to FGLRX is not installed. -- ┌─┐ │Narendra Sisodiya │http://narendrasisodiya.com └─┘

How to install using apt-get from local .deb files without Internet OR how to bypass sudo apt-get update
I recently created a offline installer.. debbundle.. I got a bug in it.. Let me explain the process.. See code - http://code.google.com/p/debbundle/source/browse/trunk/OneClickInstall_Deb_Creator?spec=svn10r=10 To install vim-gtk, I am first downloading all deb package (and not installing it.) mkdir -p vim-gtk mkdir -p vim-gtk/partial sudo apt-get -y -o dir::cache::archives=./vim-gtk install --download-only vim-gtk sudo rm vim-gtk/lock Now I am copying this folder and another system which do not have Internet.. so on system 2, I am running following commands.. cd /media/usbdrive/vim-gtk sudo apt-get -y -o dir::cache::archives=/media/usbdrive/vim-gtk install vim-gtk This is not installing vim-gtk on second system which is just freshly installed. Initially when I created this project few days back, I was using same machine as build-server and install-test server. SO i was not getting this error// Source of Error : basically, a freshly installed system do not have -- sudo apt-get update If I run sudo apt-get update command then I command will work.. So basically, on a freshly installed system one has to apply sudo apt-get install update in order to install some package. How I can bypass this because my second machine do not have Internet. Let me know if anybody want any more clarity. -- ┌─┐ │Narendra Sisodiya │http://narendrasisodiya.com └─┘

Selling Preinstalled Debian on Laptop Hardware
I would like to sell or setup a shop for Preinstalled Debian on Laptop. I am looking for developing a kind of company who can ship/sell a complete free (free as in freedom) product in India * Freedom OS - Debian will all the packages are free * openly specified hardware. * Debian should work out of box. I want to go this approach because I can create better products if I target for single hardware architecture. I am good at software side, but not good at hardware side.. So How can i accomplish this task ? I mean is there any good quality china or anyother laptop available which i can directly purchase or is there any similar efforts ? Any other help or suggestions ?? -- ┌─┐ │ Narendra Sisodiya │ http://narendrasisodiya.com └─┘

Apple's interfaces are more attractive than a lot of others out there. I've always liked the design of their interface. Very clean and simple. Honestly I would enjoy using/recreating the Mac System 7 interface. I am using gnome from last 2 year, I always see window bar button in right. Why they changed to left in lucid ? For me windows 7 and MAcOS theme and interface is very crap. I cannot even work on them * 6 month release cycle and most buggy upgrade management which always fails Who said you have to upgrade to the latest version available? Why not use one of Ubuntu's LTS editions LOL LTS is much buggy then non-LTS. 9.10 was the only stable version i have used. ? Upgrading an OS/distro every six months is kind of silly to me. * I want to rebase http://schoolos.org to most stable. Interesting project. Good luck with it. Thanks !!

As someone else replied earlier, Welcome to the Club. I am using gnome from last 2 year, I always see window bar button in right. Why they changed to left in lucid? I've read that can be changed. Maybe somewhere in GConf? I know re-mastering so I know all sort of tweaks. but point was, ubuntu change behaviour. another example like Ctrl+Alt+D = Show desktop. but in 10.10 series it is Window button + D. Discussion can go long. Ubuntu is also doing good but I will stick with it. I think everybody come to source one day..

deb bundle - packaging system
actually many times we get library not found,, so i just want to get some command for bundle packaging on debian --- in bundle packaging , we only have LSB on system first, --- for installing a software , you will add .deb packages will all root level dependencies, upto LSB. we can spit level of installation under dependency of one bundle package over other. -- in other word bundle package are group of .deb files with some shell files, with size more then 50 MB generally,, How this can be achieved, I know,, This is most insufficient way to handle but this can be a easy way of installtion , and place like india (where system are more and net connection is less or poor) this is more suitable where user generally copy whole software drive from one machine to another -- Best Regards -- Narendra Sisodiya ( MTech, IIT Delhi) Tejas Networks , Bangalore mob : 093790-75930 skype : narendra_sisodiya webpage : http://narendra.sisodiya.googlepages.com/aboutme [EMAIL PROTECTED] : http://www.lug-iitd.org - Jai Hind --
