If you have one, it must work with this instruction. Just follow the instruction thoroughly!

Add printer using web cups manager (http://localhost:631/). It should work.

Contact me if you also have one.

GD Library

GD library, explained as:

GD is a graphics library. It allows your code to quickly draw images
complete with lines, arcs, text, multiple colours, cut and paste from
other images, flood fills, and write out the result as a PNG file.
This is particularly useful in World Wide Web applications, where PNG is
one of the formats accepted for inline images by most browsers.

This is the runtime package of the library, built with XPM (X pixmap)
and fontconfig support.

is mandatory when installing CMS Made Simple. Here's link for the doc.

But connection to php5 for this library is not in Debian etch. But cms made simple docs mention there are 3 choices. And in Debian etch, php5-imagemagick is exist. Here's what the description sez:

This package provides a wrapper for ImageMagick library
directly from PHP scripts.

PHP5 is an HTML-embedded scripting language. Much of its syntax is borrowed
from C, Java and Perl with a couple of unique PHP-specific features thrown
in. The goal of the language is to allow web developers to write
dynamically generated pages quickly.

Notes:

1. Don't forget to install php5-gd and restart apache! This why you turned around and around.


2. After php5-gd installation, cmsms said I have 2!

Grub splash

There are images to pick up when install grub-splashimages. Or better still, add your own image inide the system.

There's GUI to manage grub namely Startup Manager (SUM) for Ubuntu but is not available in Debian etch.
I found the tutorial at debianadmin.org. Here's some quote:

If you want to Configure grub and usplash using Simple GUI Interface here is the tool called Startup Manager.This is a simple pyton script.

Startup Manager Features

You can Change grub timeout, default boot title, visibility of grub menu and usplash text,bootup resolution and color

depth,grub menu colors and background,usplash theme.

Password protect grub menu from editing

Install new grub backgrounds(either from a png, or a correctly sized and colored .xpm or xpm.gz)

Install new usplash themes(from a correctly made .so file)

Preparing your system

First thing you need to install imagemagick
