automate updates in Lenny
how do you automate the updates in Lenny? [if you're using it as a "desktop os", and you don't want to give: apt-get update; apt-get upgrade -y every week..]? i'm using this: #!/bin/bash RANDOMTIME=$(echo $[ ($RANDOM % 60 ) ] ) if ! grep -q "root dpkg --configure -a" /etc/crontab; then echo $RANDOMTIME"... 15 Apr 2010 22:34

Good Use for ClamAV
I'll always be slowly catching up on comp tech. I was using Knoppix and ClamAV to remove a virus for a friend when the futility of it all hit me. The free anti-virus hopscotch game that windows users play to feel safe. What wasted energy--over an OS I boot into maybe 7% of the time. They screw up half the tim... 7 Apr 2010 12:21
