Few minutes ago i make a unoffical repository of deb packages for debian (though it’s empty).
you have to add this line to your /etc/apt/sources.list
deb http://debian.lavluda.com binary/

if you want to release any deb file unofficaly for debian and need help to host it, send me the .deb file and don’t forget to add signature to your package.

** for testing i added the d4x on my repository, i will remove it.

please test my repository and give your feedback here.

At last from yeasterday i avoid windows 100% .

Previously my home pc was runing on linux but my developemnt laptop was runing on windows & linux (mostly windows).

But from yeasterday i removed windows from my lapptop.

So back to linux .

Here is the list that i am using now:

Here i am going to describe how to enable mod_rewrite in apache2.2 -specaily for debian.

In default installion of apache2.2 on debian never enable mod_rewrite default. So you may need to enable .

First install the apache2.2 with this command :
debian user please use “su” before start this process
ubuntu user please use “sudo su” before start this process

apt-get install apache2 (it will install apache 2.2)

now use locate to find if the mod_rewrite.so is availble on your server

updatedb
locate mod_rewrite.so


it will found in “/usr/lib/apache2/modules”

new apache follow some folders to enable and desuable mods.
so now do this:

cd /etc/apache2/mods-enabled
touch rewrite.load
gedit rewrite.load (you may use any editor to edit this file)

now paste this following line

LoadModule rewrite_module /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_rewrite.so

Then edit /etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default

Find the following

Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
allow from all

and change it to

Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride all
Order allow,deny
allow from all

and finally restart Apache

/etc/init.d/apache2 restart

OK, you done

don’t forget to comment, if it works or not.
