apt-get seg faults when I try to install a debian package. The version
of apt I am running is 0.3.18.
Any idea as to what the problem is ?
# apt-get -v
apt 0.3.18 for i386 compiled on Feb 13 2000 01:58:55

I am wondering, what it means when a process shows up with brackets
around its name when I call ps ax. For example, the sshd here:
PID TTY STAT TIME COMMAND
[snip those procs]
170 ?SW 0:01 [sshd]
[snip those procs]
these are processes that have no resident pages, see
How can I put the stdout of a command like $(uname -a;echo -e
\n;uptime) in my .signature file?
add,
set signature= uname -a; echo -e \\n\; uptime |
in ~/.muttrc

assuming that your /etc/inittab is untouched, you should remove it
from /etc/rc2.d, however, using update-rc.d is recommended.
I am a new debian user and I have a problem which none of my
debian-using friends have come across. It seems that some apps like
netscape, GIMP, spruce etc seem to be using a large size helvetica
font for the text on buttons and input
the FontPath /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi should come
The problem is however, that the providers' smarthosts complain
about the sender's hostname (because it contains my unofficial
domain name), and this results sometimes in rejection of my message
at the adressee's mail server.
Have a look at rewrite configuration section in /etc/exim.conf
Is it possible to put something like [user], and [security] in front
of the appropriate messages?
try this procmail recipe:
:0
* ^X-Loop:.*debian
{
:0 chfw
SUBJECT=| formail -xSubject:
:0 hfw
* ^X-Loop:.*debian-user
| /usr/bin/formail -i Subject: [user] $SUBJECT

I'd prefer to go back to the same virtual terminal I was on. Is there
a way to query the system for what tty is active?
/usr/bin/tty /tmp/ttysuspend into my script.
/usr/bin/fgconsole /tmp/ttysuspend

Scroll Lock is turned on when you press Ctrl-S. Switch it off.
