IT ...

I used to put my nic driver module in /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6
but then /etc/init.d/net.eth0 tends to fail.

Then I did an alias in /etc/module.d/alias

alias eth0 e1000

then

modules-update

all ok. why?

Thermal sensor of my Dell Precision 360, based on info on
http://mbm.livewiredev.com/comp/dell.html
it's a lm85 (ADM1027).

can use lm_sensors + gDesklets
or GKrellM ( http://gkrellm.net )
but only GKrellM 1.x is supported, so ...

In kernel compilation, must enable i2c hardware bus also (in my case, it's Intel 801). i2c-dev seems not necessary.

In main/face/lod.cc, 2 structs conflicted with gtk2
GtkCellRendererProgressClass
GtkCellRendererProgress

rename to something else, then compile, ok ;)

When a guest host is started in vmware, /tmp free space reduces roughly equal to RAM of guest host. No file is created, how they did it?

gnome_cups_ui_init (); //should have one argument.
gnome_cups_ui_init (NULL); //make it works
no time to do further study, no garranty

Note,
change to 2005.0, 2.8.2-r1 now ok.
