Install Debian on a UEFI-motherboard ?
Hi Folks. I have a tower PC with a serious motherboard problem. It is unable to pass data from one place (say the harddisk) to another (say a CDROM), without drowning it in errors. I think some pathways in the motherboard is broken, so I want to replace it. BUT most of the motherboards on the market doesn't have an old-style BIOS, they've got the UEFI-thing. So the question is; can I replace my motherboard with one infested with the UEFI-thing and get a Debian install to work on it ? -- Tom Rausner t...@rausner.dk ICQ:276707843 www.tomtech.dk If a person belives he is a monkey, it is called insanity.

BUT when I type 'evolution' in the CLI, I get this result; root@Colossus:/home/tom# evolution evolution: error while loading shared libraries: libnss3.so.1d: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory. If I type it in my own CLI, the result is just the same; tom@Colossus:~$ evolution evolution: error while loading shared libraries: libnss3.so.1d: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory By the way my clock_applet in the Gnome-panel has been taken out as well. I'm non the wiser. Any thoughts anyone ?
Re: lost libnss3.so.1d
Hi Just a little update; I've noticed the guys in the UBUNTU branch is having problems with Evolution after the upgrade to 11.10. Bug #855725 ; Evolution does not start after the latest updates (evolution: error while loading shared libraries: libnss3.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory) OK, there is a slight difference. Their problem is libnss3.so and not libnss3.so.1d... but it seems very related. Are we having a bug in Evolution too, or is it running smoothly everywhere.. apart from here ? Tom

lost libnss3.so.1d
Hi ! I've been messing around tweaking a few things on my box (backporting and stuff). Along the way I've made some error or other, cause now my evolution refuses to start. I leaves this message; evolution: error while loading shared libraries: libnss3.so.1d: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory It seems I've caused something to delete some directory. The file libnss3.so exists, living in the directories; /usr/lib/libnss3.so and /usr/lib64/libnss3.so I've tried making soft links to them, but still no cigar. Would anybody care to push me in the right direction ? System info attached. All help will be highly appreciated.
