How do I install system sounds?
|
| |
First of I've got to say this. I just discovered Debian 4 and man am I impressed! It took half a day to do it because the server in calgary was slow, but I installed Debian 4 on a LOWLY 333MHz 386 with 128MBs of RAM on a 5.2GIG HDD and it didn't only install, it actually goes like stink. Heaps better than the Windoze 1898 SE that it came installed with.... more »

I.e.: Suppose I installed packages aaa, bbb, ccc, etc. Theses packages caused aaa1, aaa2, bbb1, ccc1, etc. also to be installed as dependencies. I want a command (way) to display the packages aaa, bbb, ccc, etc. but... more »

Cannot configure jackd with alsa support
|
| |
Hi, I'm trying to compile jackd, but when I run configure it tells me that jackd will be build without alsa support. Debian Etch, very basic install from net-install CD. libasound-dev is installed. Any idea what might be wrong? When I configure the same package on my Ubuntu box, alsa support is included, so I guess I'm missing some header files on my Debian box...... more »

|
| |
Came over to Debian about a year ago from another Linux distro and have been very pleased - even sent in a donation. Yet, at that time, gnowesword crashed on Etch ... I sent in a bug report. Decided to try gnowesword again today, have many times since the first problem, and it *finally* works ! Thank you to those responsible for fixing it,... more »

I don't want to do that every time. Can some one tell me how to set the proper permission at boot time. Your help will be appreciated.... more »

Oops
|
| |
I have an old AMD-K6 266 MHz PC with 128 MB of RAM that I upgraded from Debian 3.1 to Debian 4.0 by doing the "apt-get dist-upgrade" while on the Internet. It was crashing for a few days, but it isn't the Debian OS because it also crashed when using a DSL LiveCD and a Knoppix LiveCD. I thought that those tests would eliminate the Debian OS as well as the HDD.... more »
