Blank page after every page when printing PDFs with evince - Debian Lenny, CUPS, HP Paintjet (pj)
I have noticed that when printing multi-page PDF files from evince on the GNOME desktop, using CUPS under Debian Lenny, I get a blank page after every page. My printer is an HP PaintJet. This wastes paper and is very annoying. I have searched the Internet, of course, but I did not find any solutions. The close... 24 Apr 2010 16:08

Why is Acroversion not properly updated?
Every time I update acroread (including mozilla-acroread, the plugin which displays PDFs), it breaks until I edit /usr/lib/Adobe/Reader9/Reader/AcroVersion to reflect the current version (which is noted in the shellscript /etc/alternatives/acroread). This should NOT be necessary. Is it my problem or do I need to... 24 Apr 2010 16:08

Filesystem recommendations
Hi, I have a question on filesystems. Back in the day, I started using reiser3.

Kernel (de)bug information sent, even if there is no connection
Hi, When my Lenny (w. k. 2.6.26-2-686-bigmem) encounters a kernel error, a box pops, and I am asked if I want to report the (de)bug information. 1. Why can't I specify somewhere that I always want to report this info? Such boxes are annoying 2. If I am not connected to the Internet, the (de)bug info is marked ... 25 Apr 2010 07:42
