As i had promised ,here comes the tutorial about ATNGW100.This is not a general purpose tutorial, but its a view of ATNGW100 from our perspective,how ,what we learned from our own experience.It explains basically what we did.I hope it will cover some of the questions faced by any newbie using ATNGW100.

Before i begin i shall say thanks to Mr Pramod CE (for much of the contents is borrowed from his own tutorial,and for his special support and guidance)and my groupmates and especially Prasanth PP who did much of the programming work.

I got an error

“E: Dynamic MMap ran out of room”

trying to sort out that

its being becoz my /var is filling out

so moved

/var/cache/apt/archives to my other hard drive…

now i need to perform a clean up

apt-get clean

But didnt helped……..again got it like this

E: Dynamic MMap ran out of room
E: Error occurred while processing notification-daemon-xfce (NewVersion1)
E: Problem with MergeList /var/lib/apt/lists/ftp.de.debian.org_debian_dists_sid_main_binary-i386_Packages
E: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.

This is caused because apt’s cache is too small to handle all of the packages that are included.

Adding the following line to /etc/apt/apt.conf
APT::Cache-Limit "20000000";

solved the problem

Installing from unstable repositories

Here is a good page about Apt

http://jaqque.sbih.org/kplug/apt-pinning.html

Im using Debian Etch and i wanted to install from new versions of Debian Sid, &Lenny

Before beginning make sure that your sources.lst have appropriate new repositories

Acording to above page there are two ways .. Here is the commands

1. apt-get install <package>/unstable

This will install the unstable version of the package, and try to meet any dependencies from Stable. This may not work, but it will tell you why

2. apt-get -t unstable install <package>

This will install the Unstable version of the package, and try to meet any dependencies from Unstable. This may produce better results.

I installed Open Movie Editor using this method it worked but it removed my kerenel headers
