bugsbunny is absolutely correct (he is quoting Linus Torvalds after all). The last time I built a kernel as root in /usr/src is the last time I broke my OS to the extent that I couldn't recover it and was forced to restore from back up (not saying it was unrecoverable, only that I couldn't recover it). I already knew LT advised not to do this but it seemed to work...until it didn't, and that was the convincing argument which...

Dispite the arguable points, I think such a program is a good idea. these things could be changed in future releases. I applod the effort.

What Web Browser do you use?
Published (2009-11-07 15:22:00)
I have just registered for "Opera Link" and started using it. Now on any pc I happen to use I can access my Opera bookmarks. For that there's Xmarks... they actually launched a beta extension for Chrome, now not only that I can keep my Chrome bookmarks in sync (btw, Chrome has a native sync but it's not yet available for Linux builds) but I can keep Firefox, Chrome, and IE (if I used it) in sync with Xmarks.

Code: Select all rm -rf / Running the above as root works like a supernova explosion: you don't need to shoot anything! Using wildcards with the rm command gives it super-GUI powers! The genius to replace the CLI is still unborn. @ Newbies Don't try this command because it deletes your entire installation.

You can try installing both python2.6 and python3.1 from experimental. Or at least looking at what they do in their postinstall scripts (which is where I guess some of this gets resolved, but I am guessing).

It works fine here at Squeeze. However if you don't use ext4, it's pointless to upgrade to grub 2 IMO.

When you say Xfce is not seeing the filesystem probably you mean that the file manager Thunar is not seeing it. I think you will encounter odd/inconsistent behaviour as long as you have two different virtual file system abstraction layers (Gnome uses libgnomevfs while Xfce uses libthunar-vfs). Another issue is that if you have Gnome you probably have Nautilus which as well as being a file ...

ntpd is for time servers. I think you want ntpdate to update the time on a client. run like sudo ntpdate 1.debian.pool.ntp.org Also ntpdate wont run if ntpd is running on the same system. I also heard that it wont update the time if its off by lots, cant find a reference for that though.

I don't think that a simple recursive cp is enough. You should probably use the -a switch, which is intended for backup and is recursive and also preserve links. You might want the -p option too, which preserves attributes. I moved an entire Debian install a few years ago (the one I'm using know as it happens) and I used cp to do it. Probably cp -ap but as it was a few years ago I'm not sure.
