Hello,
I made similar experiences with my seagate. After compiling a new
kernel I had those messages. Do you use a via 686 chipset? Mabe you
have to choose an special option in your config to avoid such
messages in /var/log/messages.
I found this discussion on that issue:

With this search I found something about powermanagement used by
the bios but not build into the kernel:

Unfortunateley I don't remember exactly the circumstances and the
solving of my harddiskproblem. It was on a mandrake system. Maybe

Hello, I'm myself rather a newbie, and apart from what you mentioned it could be probably helpful to a newbie to have a look on dpkg -S in such cases. dpkg -S asm/io.h e.g. gives libc6-dev as result, and io.h gives apart from others the kernel-header package. Besides alien we could use auto-apt (apt-get install auto-apt) tar -xzf cd auto-apt run ./configure make (make check) make install (or checkinstall if you got checkinstall: apt-get install checkinstall) ciao gerhard -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

dist-upgrade problem with conflicting packages coreutils and shellutils

Unfortunately I'd already overwritten the 'coreutils-packages' of sarge (shellutils and textutils) with their newest versions. That means that I had installed coreutils sometimes before I did apt-get dist-upgrade (I think due to dependencies of a SID package I needed).

Yes, it's longer ago I wanted to install a package from source. I don't remember what kind of source-tarball I installed by using auto-apt, but it was a developer version, the newest available. I configured my preferences woody pin-priority to 777 and sid pin-priority 333. I can't remember exactly, but I installed that package on woody. Last weeken I tried to upgade my woody distribution to sarge due to a few problems I had to implement packages from unstable. I thought that the differences between woody and sid are getting bigger and bigger, though it seemed to me that it'll be no longer an good idea to stick with woody if I need packages from sid. But I made mistakes with my preparation of the dist-upgrade. I left the pin-prioritys in the preferences and only changed woody to testing. After ran into the problems with coreutils from sid I had overwritten the woody packages of textutils and shellutils. (I think fileutils were updated before coreutils. Unfortunateley textutils and shellutils were upgraded after coreutils). Later I gave tesing 1001 and unstable 99. with that preferences-file I downgraded all packages from sid to sarge. I think that was the recommendet action _before_ using dpkg --force-overwrite :-( Unfortunateley it seems that the coreutils-package couldn't be downgraded. And now I'm in a situation where I have too versions of packages that provides the coreutils: coreutils from sid on one side (but overwritten with the sarge-packages, but still marked as installed in the apt-database) and fileutils, shellutils, textutils from sarge But my system runs normal > I'm tracking sarge and I don't > have it installed.

HOWTO build and package CMYK seperate plugin for the GIMP (SID)
Hello,
I'm running Sarge/SID.
I want to build and package the gimp plugin Seperate [3],
which relies on the CMM of the little-cms [5] and seems to
make a first step toward the needed CMYK seperation in
the GIMP.
I'm not able to run the binary for GIMP 2.0 which can be found on [3]

I get this error message:

If I kill the artsd sound server > mozilla clears itself up and that page will load without a > problem when I reload mozilla, if I disable the artsd (kde sound > server). So the dpkg -reconfigure doesn't help? Hi, I'm looking really for long time for a solution on that issue, without helpful results. You can search in several german mozilla and debian groups. I never received a fully satisfied answer. My last chance is to purge anything that has to do with mozilla, because I have at least 4 versions shoulder at shoulder (like the germans use to say :). After deleting all traces of them I'll gonna reinstall one mozilla 1.0 version with apt-get from unstable. There is a chance that the earlier installed tarballs desturb the method to avoid mozilla to grab for the esd or dsp (don't know exactly), provided by the deb scripts. Do you agree that this deals with the bug http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=58339 ? I'll gonna purge my mozilla's at the end of the week. So, hopefully we'll got an answer than. cu gerhard -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi René, I don't think so I just answered to that question in http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2002/debian-user-200205/msg04395.html If I use modprobe es1371 instead of alsa I got no problem. But I don't know much about the soundsystems. I noticed that alsa is more powerful. In future I want to use more soundapps. That's the reason why I'm interested in using alsa. ciao gerhard -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Crap to 'five nines' relative to what? No, I don't agree referring to flash, the design made by some flashdesigners is not always that bad. And last but not least: Images and sounds got the power to communicate things too. HTML is not a presentationlanguage, but css is. But you're right: people have forgotten the meaning of HTML these days. They often don't think on it in a communicative manner. And I think they're paying for it these days. Fortunateley there is a bugfix for mozilla out now. Web designers are not limited by such a bug.

In a drawing it's really helpful for a digital reproduction to know where to find the edges between the colors. Ok, HTML really didn't start as a presentation language like ps or pdf or all the other adobe stuff, but if you want to communicate, _not_ by words only, it's simply helpfull to have a language that knows how to describe your figurative vision. The net might be not the media for it, not yet. LINUX, open-source and all that neat stuff are fortunateley not depending on all that media hype, but there is a space in the net for using this kind of communication.
