Add something like:
/usr/X11R6/bin/xv -root -quit /usr/include/X11/pixmaps/background.xpm
or:
/usr/local/bin/X11/xpmroot /usr/include/X11/pixmaps/background.xpm

should have gone to the list, too ...

Hello Tom!
You don't have any sound drivers installed by default, although all the
device drivers are there. E.g. you have scsi devices even if you don't
posess a scsi drive. Look at:

for a list of supported sound cards. You get this file if you install

Thank you for the response. Perhaps I should clarify.
I am using X. I have several xterms/rxvts open, and I am running
several emacs frames. None of these, as far as I can tell, is
connected in any way with /cdrom, neither sitting on it, nor
accessing any file on the cd.

Howdy,
I have two debian systems linked with an ethernet cable. On the most powerfull
machine I have X installed. On the other I've only a textconsole.
How do I use the second (slower) machine as an X-Terminal. I really haven't go
a clue, do I have to install a minimum version of X on that machine

Hello all,
I am helping my friend installing debian 1.3.1 from a cdrom. My friend has
a Mystique 220. Obviously, the xwindow packages in the cdrom does not
work for this card. I want to ask which new packages should I get from one
of the ftp sites and what is the correct procedure to install it.

This happens to me quite often: a floppy or a cd isn't being accessed,
but I cannot unmount it: umount gives the error I have indicated.
Is there any way to find out what process or which xterm might be
accessing or sitting on a certain device?
Thank you to all who have made my computing journey
