locales fails to setup, stuck in infinite loop
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I need some help debugging an upgrade issue. System was running fine until the locales update came through. The system is usable, but I can't seem to figure out how to get this issue resolved. Recently, the system will no longer do an update/upgrade because of the this problem. ~ But it was working with this hiccup. Let me know what information I can provide to assist with this. I would attached the log of strace -f dpkg --configure -a, but it is gets far too large.

Thunderbird's addressbook and palm pilot
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi, Has anyone had any experience with Thunderbird and a palm pilot? I see an extension on Sourceforge that looks as if it was pulled or something, not sure what the status is at this time. And what lead me there was someone trying this under windows, so that lead quickly faded. I got it working once with evolution, but I am trying Thunderbird out because of IMAP performance problems that still have not gone away after ~ two major version. And I experience none of this lag or preformence issues with Thunderbird with same online folders. I have similar luck at work with outlook, maybe evolution is copying outlook too well ;) Any tips or suggestions on integrating a palm pilot with Thunderbird? I get this working, I don't see any reason to return to evolution. Thanks, - -- ~ Wolftales | ,''`. | ( )| _o) | ~ Debian |: :' : | ~oo~ | /\\ | ~ GNU|`. `' | ..

Summary: Re: Sound issues using 2.4.18-bf2.4-xfs and SB Live! 5.1
Hi, I just wanted to sum up the issue I was experiencing. The emu10k1 depends on the ac97_codec. As both Matt and Bob pointed out modprobe would cover this dependacy. After confirming things worked, I rebuit my kernel successfully with emu10k1 built in which also works as prior research suggested. Thanks for the help :) wolftales [Bob wrote] Try 'modprobe emu10k1' instead. But even better use 'modconf'. modconf Page down to the emu10k1 driver. Select it. Have modconf handle the setting up of this in your system. This is my recommendation.

RE: dual port nic
-Original Message- From: David Wright [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, May 07, 2002 10:48 AM To: Quenten Griffith Cc: debian-users Subject: Re: dual port nic As far as I can tell, they're just two NICs on the one card, and the system treats them as such. Really? That means the two ports can be bound to different interfaces (eth0 and eth1) with different IPs? I ask because, the PCI bus of my 3-network bridge being rather full, I wanted to buy one from 3com ( http://www.3com.com/products/en_US/detail.jsp?tab=featurespathtyp e=purchasesku=3C982-TXM ), but their rep told me it was just used for failover -- the two ports could only transmit the same data. Depending on the NIC, yes, as someone pointed out already. The amount of interfaces on a single card is not the issue. The chipset used by the card for those interfaces is. I have had a 4 port card running under both debian and Redhat, which used the tulip driver. In both cases it was addressable as eth0, eth1, eth2 . . . and all interfaces were independent. Same goes for Sparc based SBUS cards with multiple interfaces. It depends on how the card was built and whether you have the appropriate driver for it. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Break even. LOL I love it! That's a good one. I used to do that with the Wilsonville Fry's, except it was AGP video cards for CGA and EGA adapters we had piled up. I did it three or four times over the years, my roommates have all done it...you'd think they'd check the box. But I guess it's a vicious circle, since often times those boxen with the exchanged cards are put back on the shelf, so someone else has to legitimately exchange for the real thing. They always are at Fry's. I wouldn't touch anything there that shows any signs of having been opened before. Returned stuff goes straight back on the shelf AFAIK, maybe with a little Tape or new shrinkwrap. -- -CraigW -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?
