1.1 1 - Packages for Debian
a/ Old Versions
- __apt-get update__: update the list of the packages that you can download from internet. It is good to do it once a month.
- __apt-get install__ ~~name~~: install the package ~~name~~ with all the dependencies
- __apt-get upgrade__ : upgrade all installed packages. It is good to do it once a month.
- __apt-cache search__ ~~name~~: look for packages with name similar to  ~~name~~

b/ New versions:
- __aptitude update__
- __aptitude install__
- __aptitude upgrade__

c/ Configuration
- __ dpkg-reconfigure__

1.1 2 - Install a new version of the rtai module

A few usefull commands:
- lsmod
- rmmod ~~name~~
- insmod ~~name.o~~

Link the module to the kernel in :
- /lib/modules/~~kernel_version~~/rtai/~~name.o~~
The actual ~~kernel_version~~ is 2.4.20-rthal5

1.1 3 - Linux tricks
