apt gives a “Segmentation faulty tree”
when running an update:
sudo aptitude
Ouch! Got SIGSEGV, dying..
apparently, just remove some files:
sudo rm /var/cache/apt/*.bin
now everything is back to normal.

To stay on time, you should really use ntpd. It is a daemon that runs all the time and makes tiny changes to the system clock. All you need to do is install ntp:
aptitude install ntp
after it’s installed, I encourage you to go over to http://www.pool.ntp.org/zone/@ and pick a pool in your continental zone. Debian has some defaults, and they are fine, i just like using the ntp pool. If you want to change where you are syncing to, open up /etc/ntp.conf and change the “server” lines.
nano /etc/ntp.conf
to manually sync Debian’s time, just install “ntpdate”
apt-get install ntpdate
run this:
ntupdate-debian [a ntp server]
I completely. completely messed up MySQL. Badly. I wiped out the data directory (/var/lib/mysql in Debian) and the went to remove mysql …
apt-get remove --purge mysql-server
That only deleted something like 86K. dissapointing. It looks like “mysql-server” is a shortcut pointing to the latest version of the software. The real software is found under the name “mysql-server-50″. So what made it happen was:
apt-get remove --purge mysql-server*
That’ll wipe out whatever mysql install is in place.
Install package ifenslave-2.6.
apt-get install ifenslave
make sure the real NICs kernel modules are loaded automatically
modprobe --list | grep -i bonding
edit /etc/network/interfaces to look like this:
auto bond0
iface bond0 inet static
address 192.168.1.59
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.1.1
up /sbin/ifenslave bond0 eth0 eth1
down /sbin/ifenslave -d bond0 eth0 eth1
broadcast 192.168.1.255
make sure to remove ALL of the lines refering to old eth0 or eth1 settings.
add the following lines to your /etc/modprobe.d/arch/i386:
alias bond0 bonding
options bonding mode=1 miimon=100 downdelay=200 updelay=200
