The government (which is never wrong) says Linux is more vulnerable than Windows. Anyone have any comments as to the validity of this?

I installed Debian testing on my system maybe about a year ago and KDE installed properly and I haven't had any problems running it. I even installed it on my friend's computer using the same older...
-
Sorry, I should have told everyone what version I was trying to install to begin with. I was attempting to install the 'testing' version using the etch beta 1 netinstall CD. I am actually using the...
-
Thanks but apt-get would only install the package that wasn't up-to-date enough for KDE. I guess my question is, how can I override the apt-get versions of certain packages without making the system...

I recently attempted to install Debian on a friend's computer using the latest netinstall CD and everything went well until I noticed KDE had not been installed. I attempted to install KDE using...

Setting up a friend's system with Fedora Core 4, I used Turboprint to get their printer working. Unfortunately after rebooting, the settings get cleared out and I need to go through the Turboprint...

An update--
Putting /etc/init.d/firestarter start in the ip-up script did seem to work. Thanks to everyone for their help. :)
-
I actually have tried this on the system in question and it does not seem to work. The Firestarter documentation claims that it will not work with KPPP:
...
-
Thanks. I'll give that a shot. My only concern is whether it will run the Firestarter script which requires root to run.
As a test, on my system I created a sample script that, when ran,...

On a friend's Debian testing install, I am trying to figure out how to get Firestarter (IP Tables frontend) to load when a dialup connection is established.
I was advised by the documentation to...

Some interesting info...
I copied my entire ~/.evolution folder into root's /.evolution folder, and nothing changed. My email, contacts and calendar were not showing up when running Evolution as...
-
It's telling me I'm already using the latest version. I uninstalled and reinstalled it anyway and am getting the same problem. I noticed I can run Evolution fine as root. It just doesn't contain...

Thanks for the reply. I am currently using Debian Sarge (testing). When trying to run Evolution from the command line, I get the following:
acp@pcp01651807pcs:~$ evolution
es menu class...

After performing an apt-get upgrade last night, Evolution began getting really unstable. Now it won't even load without crashing immediately. I had quite a bit of contact information in my...

Thanks. I'll check those out.

I am trying to convert a long-time Windows user and the one final problem I'm having is finding a replacement program for Print Shop. They use it to make labels and banners and I can't seem to find...

An update: I have not yet had the chance to try the DPI idea. However I realized that if I put an executable script that runs /usr/bin/gnome-settings-daemon in ~/.kde/Autostart, then whenever KDE...
-
Thanks, bwkaz. I'm just a little confused as to why the settings aren't being saved permanently. This problem is occurring on a friend's system so I will try your idea next time I'm over there and...
-
Thanks. I tried Turboprint and it works great. Now I just need to wait until my friend realizes it won't print without the logo pasted over each page.. hehe.. Thanks again.

I am having some font problems that I seem to be able to fix temporarily w/ gnome-control-center. However when I log out, the changes are lost and I'm back to small, hard-to-read fonts for the next...

An update: I was able to get my friend's PC online this morning after purchasing an external Zoom serial port modem. It was a little pricier than the internal ones but it works perfectly and didn't...
-
bwkaz,
Thanks very much for the information. Does the fact that the modem appears to be a card that is plugged into a PCI slot mean that it's not an "onboard" modem and therefore might not be a...
-
I noticed something... When I ran cat /proc/pci, I realized there are several devices that are showing as being on IRQ 17. Could that be the problem?
I am seeing:
Bus 0, device 31,...

I installed Debian Sarge (testing, 2.4 kernel) on a friend's computer (top of the line Gateway) and I can't seem to get their 56K modem working. The computer is a Gateway and it does have an...

je_fro,
You're right. That's probably where I can fix the problem. Thanks very much for your help! :)
