I gave that a go, but it does not build the packages. Perhaps because of differences between Lenny and Squeeze? It did not seem to find things where it was looking for them (looking in /lib/X11R6/lib86, which does not exist).
I have continued playing around with the Ubuntu manual solution I mentioned before and managed to tweak it for Debian (kludged the kludge: I need a shower). I have managed to build 8.12 against the current kernel and installed the package. Things still do not seem to work, however. If I reboot with the xorg.config file set for ATI, X fails to load with errors of the driver not existing. Seems obvious enough: make sure the module is loaded.
I only use about 5% of my memory, so I doubt I am out. Reading around on Google, I found references to this issue with older cards, but mine is fairly recent and this is the same source as the module I used perfectly fine all year.
I have currently reverted to the default xorg.config (not using the fglrx driver). The low res is ugly, but at least I can copy errors across to Iceweasel.
Ok i am running Linux, or rather was. I can not longer do anything. This was a dns server amoungst other things.
It will no longer boot.
I have used a startup disk, but how can i recover the OS?
I need help and urgently.
Please someone

Hi,
I don't think this is a new problem, but I can't find a solution anywhere, and it's quite annoying:
In the office, I have a workstation running Debian Lenny with Gnome, and I've copied my ssh key to some other machines for secure and easy login without havin' to remember all the passwords.... (8 Replies)
