Or did I installed wrong tftp packages? looks like you probably did install the wrong package. Useful bits: dpkg -L tftpd will show you what files were installed by that package.=20 to see what a package contains before installing it: apt-cache show tftpd will provide the package description and various details such as dependencies. Indeed, from packages.debian.org and the package description, looks like tftpd expects to start form inet.d, so you'd have to put the proper entries in inet.d.conf and will not see the daemon running unless someone's actually connected.=20 A --yzCAVeWw9RvyYzgB Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: Digital signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE-----

I didn't have the kernel headers for my 2.6.16 kernel and they do not seem to be available in the Etch repository. I took this as a sign that it was time to upgrade my kernel and upgraded to 2.6.22-3-k7 from backports. Then I reran module-assistant. This time, m-a found and downloaded the kernel headers. I then selected the module to compile. The gspca-source was not listed, so I used the spca5xx-source. When I tried to build the sources, however, the build failed. The logfile contained nothing but the date and time, so I have no specific errors to report. It may be that the problem is using spca5xx-source instead of gspca-source, but that was not listed as an option. If I download it manually, might m-a find it and allow me to use it. Any ideas on what I should try next? -- Marc Shapiro mshapiro_42@yahoo.com

I try to discover why the device name changed and find something.
I run lspci and find 2 ide interface, as show below:
00:05.0 IDE interface: Silicon Image, Inc. PCI0680 Ultra ATA-133 Host
Controller (rev 02)
/sys/block/hda/device/driver->../../../../../bus/ide/drivers/ide-disk
00:0f.1 IDE interface: Broadcom CSB6 RAID/IDE Controller (rev a0)
/sys/block/hda/device/driver->../../../../../bus/ide/drivers/ide-cdrom
So, I disable the cdrom in bois. The hard disk name is /dev/hda now.
Question is: what is the order kernel detect the hardware? when will
it detect cdrom before hard disk and assign name hda to cdrom?

It exposes two devices; a normal writable USB mass storage device, and a faked USB optical drive. The optical drive contains some windows apps for what seems to be a management application for portable applications. Since I run only Debian GNU/Linux on my laptop and have no use for the Windows app, I'd like GNOME automount to ignore the fake optical drive that the USB stick exposes. Does anyone know how to make GNOME not mount specific devices? This is what lsusb tells me: Bus 005 Device 005: ID 0930:6540 Toshiba Corp.
