got problem with feisty, no sound but sound card is detected... anyone got this problem? any solution????

I've just install this Mailman in my ubuntu, and it says, in order to make it work, I got to create a "newlist"

May I know how to create a mailman newlist?
I did read through some info through net, but still don't understand.....
Pls help.. thx

newlist command is to create a new site wide mailing list.
when newlist is run, you would be prompt for admin mail address, if everything has been configured, a welcome message would be send to the email address specified here.
what seems to be your problem?

I'm stuck here :::
root@kecikmiao:/etc/init.d# newlist
Enter the name of the list: babymilo
Enter the email of the person running the list: babymilo@yahoo.com
Initial babymilo password:
To finish creating your mailing list, you must edit your /etc/aliases (or
equivalent) file by adding the following lines, and possibly running the
`newaliases' program:

## babymilo mailing list
babymilo: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman post babymilo"
babymilo-admin: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman admin babymilo"
babymilo-bounces: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman bounces babymilo"
babymilo-confirm: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman confirm babymilo"
babymilo-join: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman join babymilo"
babymilo-leave: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman leave babymilo"
babymilo-owner: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman owner babymilo"
babymilo-request: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman request babymilo"
babymilo-subscribe: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman subscribe babymilo"
babymilo-unsubscribe: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman unsubscribe babymilo"

Hit enter to notify babymilo owner...

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
root@kecikmiao:~# /etc/init.d/mailman start
Site list for mailman (usually named mailman) missing
Please create it; until then, mailman will refuse to start

Phewww... what's wrong with this ????

well, when you execute newlist command, you should type..

newlist mailman

the site wide list must be named mailman for default installation.

oh okay... thx... i've got it...

what bout this?.. What should i type in the blue wordings?

# Default domain for email addresses of newly created MLs
DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST = 'list.examples.com'
#-------------------------------------------------------------
# Default host for web interface of newly created MLs
DEFAULT_URL_HOST = 'www.examples.com'

DEFAULT_URL_HOST should be the hostname of the machine running mailman..

DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST is the hostname of the machine running MTA...

hmm.. they have changed it since 6.10
no more inittab.

anyway, for ubuntu, it's different.
so it isn't enough by touching inittab alone.

i'm not sure if it still honours inittab in the new version.
you can try to create the file and include the line there, and when you have successfully boot up, use "runlevel" command to check which runlevel are you in.
if it has changed according to the entry in /etc/inittab, it means the new ubuntu still read from that file.

what display manager are you using? gdm?
probably you have to go into the /etc/rc* folder and find the symbolic links to the display manager and delete it.
the numbers in /etc/rc* folder would correspond to the runlevel that you want to boot from.

as i'm a newbie in debian based distro, probably this isn't the best way to do it.
