locales package, then dpkg-reconfigure locales and pick the languages that you want. They'll be generated when you leave the program. The language codes are listed in /etc/locale.gen and there are aliases in /etc/locale.alias . To switch the locale set the LANG environment variable, e.g.
$ LANG=fr_FR.ISO-8859-1 hello Bonjour, le monde! $fan speed control - http://www.lula.org/pipermail/lula/2004-January/002287.html automatically mounting devices GNOME 2.8 (in sid now) supports auto actions when devices (such as thumb drives and digital cameras) are plugged in. Here are my notes on getting it to work. First make sure that you've got the right packages installed. I needed to install gnome-volume-manager , dbus-1 , dbus-glib-1 , hal-device-manager , and ifrename (and all of the other packages that apt-get pulled in).
One of the packages that gets pulled in is udev which is a daemon that manages the device files in /dev . udev doesn't auto-load modules the way devfs used to, so you probably want to load the modules that you need by listing them in /dev/modules . In my case I needed to load 8250 since I've got a serial mouse. On another machine I needed to load snd-mixer-oss and snd-seq-oss to get the OSS emulation device files.
Make sure that you've got the devices that you need for your USB bus: http://www.linux-usb.org/FAQ.html . I needed uhci_hcd .

System Clock
By Unix tradition the system hardware clock is set to UTC, but Windows expects it to be set to local time. You can edit this in /etc/default/rcS .dpkg-reconfigure tzdata sets the time zone.
Sound/Music
You probably want to shut the PC speaker off - it's very annoying. Add blacklist pcspkr to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf .

Browser
Debian tends to be conservative about the versions of software that they include in their stable distribution, but sometimes you want to be more cutting-edge. There's a repository of Iceweasel backports at http://mozilla.debian.net/ so you can install newer versions of the browser on older versions of Debian.
Keyboard

I like to add: XKBOPTIONS="terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp,ctrl:swapcaps" to this file to make Emacs much easier to use in both X and the console.Setting up an Email Server https://scaron.info/blog/debian-mail-postfix-dovecot.html | ||||||||
