Re: Graphics cards with Free drivers

remote calendars. Some day real soon now I will try with the latest kernels, to see if I can't get the nvidia driver to work. I would like some 3d graphics for the few games I occasionally play... -Heikki -- Heikki Levanto In Murphy We Turst heikki (at) lsd (dot) dk -- To UNSUBSCRIBE

card (GE 8600-something, silent). So I can't use that one. I would like to get a bit of 3d working... But it is not really important, I can live without. Any ideas where to go hunting for this compile error? - Heikki -- Heikki Levanto In Murphy We Turst heikki (at) lsd (dot) dk

Re: Java and flash lenny amd64

, iceweasel with java, flash, the works. - It does take a bit of time to set it all up. Easier if you can keep (or rebuild) a 32-bit installation for such purposes. This is just my newbie experience. But I was surprised how easy it really was. Best regards Heikki -- Heikki Levanto

Re: status of native java JRE ?

tried it before, since I knew that I could not install Sun Java on the 64-bit system. My to-do list is getting smaller every day! Hooray for Debian-amd64! - Heikki -- Heikki Levanto In Murphy We Turst heikki (at) lsd (dot) dk -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject

chroot: java fails

(www.nordea.dk). I get the login screen, but the process dies in a few seconds, often in the middle of me typing in my password. I am using a 'plain' schroot, since I already have the old root system mounted. Perhaps I should try with a block device type thing? - Heikki -- Heikki Levanto In Murphy

Re: chroot: java fails

Sorry, I was too quick in posting this. I tried the block-device thing, and for some reason all seems to work better that way. Even my netbank! And I did not need to set DISPLAY to 127.0.0.1, for some reason. Not sure I understand why, but as long as it works... Regards Heikki -- Heikki

Re: chroot question [* SOLVED *]

. Is there a good (up to date!) page somewhere on the net that explains what I need? Can I use my old root disk partition as the chroot environment, and still boot to it natively if I really need some 32-bit stuff?
