	OK, time to ask for help here. I have a Sun Ultra 1 200E with 500mb memory, and an 18 gb disk that had Solaris 9 installed. I downloaded and burned the netinst CD, and have booted the U1 from it.

Getting rid of opendns

I edited /etc/resolv.conf to get rid of the opendns servers. I edited the "prepend domain-name-servers" line in /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf to reflect the new servers. I edited wicd to do the same. I ran Recoll to see if the opendns servers were in any file on the system and came up with a blank. The router is hard-wired to the IP's dns, and it... more »

	reboot fails
	Hi, After a powerfailure in the house, I restarted my home debian server. Unfortunately, that failed. The boot process stops right after this: /init: .:line 53: can't open /scripts/functions [ 1.397803] Kernel panic - not syncing: Attend to kill init! So, what do I need to do?

	Upgraded my old Debian box to Kernel 2.6.32, but missing sensors datas and can't compile the latest stable NVIDIA driver.
	...In my experience lm-sensors stuff usually breaks when switching to a new kernel. I then have to check and change various sensor-related configuration files. ...Isn't that the expected behaviour from proprietary drivers? Isn't there a Debian package for the proprietary Nvidia driver? Have you tried that?... more » By Anton Ertl - Mar 5 - 12 new of 12 messages

Starting vino server at bootup

I've been trying to get the vino server to start at bootup, so I don't have to log on locally before I can vnc into the machine.
