dear all,
i made a symlink from /data/MP3 to /home/ftp.
the trouble is that even though anonymous users can see the directory, the
can't look into the directory. for example:
ls -l
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root9 Jul 30 07:16 MP3 - /data/MP3
drwxrwxrwx 2
you're prolly thinking of lsof.

dear all,
as i understand it, wine comes with its own libraries which implement the
win32 API.
i also understand that if we somehow have access to a windows CD, all legal
issues aside, we can use files off windows to make wine work even better.
how can i do this? is there a debian specific
according to /usr/src/linux/Documentation/mtrr.txt...
A patch is being written for XFree86 which will make this automatic:
in other words the X server will manipulate /proc/mtrr using the
ioctl() interface, so users won't have to do anything.
does anybody know if this has been done yet?

familiar vector symbol. previously, this macro always gave me

there is. the HOWTO gives an artificial example using a file containing a

i *just* downloaded and compiled 2.4.0-12 for the very first time. after
my very first reboot with this kernel, i'm getting:
# depmod -a
depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in
/lib/modules/2.4.0-test12/kernel/drivers/scsi/imm.o
i'm curious - i compiled this kernel by the book. what is causing

Peter,
what modultils version are you using?? the 2.4 series requires at least
version 2.3.18 or above. check your
/usr/src/linux-2.4/Documentation/Changes file for other relevant software
updates you might need to make. If that is not
egads, man. don't reinstall an operating system!
don't you have any spare kernels laying around? i always leave myself at
least 1 other old kernel.
as for vim, try:
echo set textwidth=76 $HOME/.vimrc

debs,

for what it's worth, that device is your RTC, or, real time clock.
the kernel is looking for rtc.o and isn't finding it...
in the future, you can find the device for a particular major/minor number
from /usr/src/linux/Documentation/devices.txt.

i thought we weren't supposed to modify that file by hand?
is that the proper way of doing it, or is there an official debian method
that doesn't involve editing that file by hand?

Sven,
To get rid of that, put this line in your
good enough. /dev/cdrom points to /dev/scd0, which is owned by root.audio.
and all my real users are members of audio.

Actually,
dear all,
i'm trying to resolve a conf.modules is newer than /lib/modules/foo/foo.dep
problem.
i thought that depmod -a would rewrite /lib/modules/foo/foo.dep. in fact,
that's what i thought the whole point of depmod -a was.
apparently, depmod isn't writing this file, and the error message
cp -a has always worked for me. tar would also work. i think cpio and dd
would also.
anything that preserves permissions, file ownership, and links should be OK.
