Rendezvous, mDNS, zeroconf?

That is what I read somewhere?

why do people find it so hard to believe that at least *sometimes* a WYSIWYG editor is VERY GOOD for web page creation? The guy probably needs what he asks for - trust him.

What kind of services don't run either in the kernel or in libc6? As for getting "something right", if they truely are faster, faster isn't always "right". Faster could be less secure or less stable, or downright wrong coding. The other issue is that 686 is starting, believe it or not, to get a little long in the tooth. More and more processors are able to run amd64. There is a whole amd64 port. Doug.

But with a "desktop", make sure to activate all those "Energy Star" features like powering off the screen, spinning down the disks, etc. Laptops are far easier on power. If your desktop needs are moderate, I can suggest buying a laptop. It can be left on just as much, with attention to cleaning the fan(s), and they use much less power. I've been using a Sony PCG-GRT170 for the last 4 years very happily. The more recent dual-core laptops with MHz throttling are much cooler and quieter. I bought my Mom a dual-core 1.6GHz HP Pavilion at $650 a couple months ago, and it's just as "snappy" and actually boots faster than the 2.8GHz Vaio. Very good for a "desktop" machine.

So its a script in /etc/network/ip-up.d? That would be run by the networking stuff and you don't want to play with that. To disable the actual script, put an exit -1 in after the shebang before it actually does anything. By using -1, something that calls the script should log an error somewhere that you can then trace. Use exit 0 to just return 'success'. I wouldn't tell you to "go and get a life". You've got a properly installed debian package that is spitting out unwanted net traffic. To me that's a big deal and worth a talk with the maintainer. Doug.

I've never done CGI stuff. Why not just rewrite it so that its not buggy? Use your language-of-choice. I would use Python but of course it would require that I could read Perl, which I can't. Doug.

There is a php version that is much better than the perl version. http://www.dtheatre.com/scripts/formmail.php -- "Passionate hatred can give meaning and purpose to an empty life." -- Eric Hoffer Rick Pasotto rick(at)niof.net http://www.niof.net

As I said below, aptitude will break holds to upgrade packages. There isn't much I can do about this as long as I'm relying on core apt code to do the "instant recursive upgrades". There are enough bugs due to apt not behaving the way I like that I'd write my own version of its code full of new and exciting bugs if I had the time, but I don't. It would be interesting to know what's pulling in tetex-extra. If you held back all the packages that require it, you could pull off a partial upgrade. It looks like most of the packages that requires tetex-extra are TeX-related, like latex2html, although ocamlweb also shows up.

I don't know how the TeX team are managing their transition offhand. A start would be to figure out which packages are forcing the upgrade of tetex-extra -- you could find this out by, e.g., going into the interactive interface, holding tetex-extra back after the upgrade (manually), and then seeing what breaks.

This has been solved, Thank you. Jeff had twigged that I didn't have "echo" enabled in my firewall, and that was the fix. You were obviously on the same track.

I've also been wondering about system maintenance on my laptop. To the extent that I grok the (default) anacron / cron interplay, anacron will run daily all the scripts in /etc/cron.daily, weekly all the scripts in /etc/cron.weekly and monthly all the scripts in /etc/cron.monthly. It won't, AFAICT, run stuff from ordinary crontabs, such as /etc/crontab or the files in /etc/cron.d. I use rsnapshot, which supplies a cron file in /etc/cron.d, which anacron apparently won't run. I suppose one must make sure that all one's cron stuff is in the directories that anacron runs, or perhaps rewrite /etc/anacrontab.
