You can use debootstrap to avoid messing with CDs though (see install manual and HOWTOs). Paul The closest thing you can come to shifting is to create a new partition, install (or cdebootstrap) a base system there without selecting any extra packages, copy your /etc and debconf database, dpkg --get-selections on the old system and dpkg --set-selections on the new and then apt-get dselect-upgrade.

Realplayer skipping
Hello, I've installed realplayer into an ia32 chroot, and I can run it -- but it skips like mad, independent of the source, whether it's a local file or streaming: it plays a fraction of a second, then skips forward by a few seconds, plays a fraction of a second again, etc. It seems to have trouble synchronising. Now if I run it with aoss -- chroot into the ia32 chroot, and run 'aoss realplay source', then the timing is ok (I can see the timer counting 0:01 .. 0:02 .. 0:03.., as opposed to 0:01 .. 0:05 .. 0:06 ..), but I don't get any sound! The motherboard is an ATI RS-480 motherboard, and the kernel is linux-image-2.6-amd64-k8 2.6.15-7, booted with the disable_timer_pin_1 option, if that matters. Any idea how I can get realplay to work without skipping, and with sound ? Jeroen Nijhof -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Re: Wrong timings on amd64 (Turion) Solution
Hi Hans, On Tue, Feb 28, 2006 at 09:36:29AM +0100, Hans wrote: I have found a solution: you must add disable_timer_pin_1 in grub. Other solution was, to start without acpi. The first solution will start with acpi. Beware of ACPI, it's buggy with X200!! Pay a visit to: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5534 Richard Mace posted a thread about it a couple of months ago, IIRC. I don't know if you've got a HP nx6125 like Richard, me and some others but you'd better check your ACPI behaviour. If not monitored constantly, it could damage your CPU, since the fan won't start when it's supposed to. Just my 2 cents. Happy hacking! mfv signature.asc Description: Digital signature
Re: ATI-drivers flickers was: ATI-driver will not start with 3D-acceleration (Update)
Hi, I'm running a shuttle xpc st 20g5, with an ATI Radeon Xpress 200 on board graphics. But when I use the ati driver (8.22.5) it turns the dvi port off, and on every window redraw the desktop flickers horizontally. I do not have those problems with the std vesa driver. Do you had similar problems ? I have the same problem with my Radeon 7000 PCI-Card and the ati-driver. Especially the terminal flickers all the time and some font-characters seem to be italic, when they shouldn't be... Using the vesa-driver, the problem is less problematic. Did somebody get another solution than using the vesa-driver? regards, sigi. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
broken ia32-libc6 / libc6-i386
ia32-libc6 and libc6-i386 both contain /lib/ld-linux.so.2; neither of these seem to be obselete and both of them seem to be required on my system.. What's the newer naming? What's the correct resolution of the conflict? thanks, Hamish -- Hamish Moffatt VK3SB [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Specifically, qemu (for example) depends on ia32-libc6, which depends on lib32gcc1. That library in turn depends on libc6-i386. Oops looks like this is caused by my old amd64-archive installation.

Re: AMD64 Installation/Usage-Experience Checklist?

Such a check list could be posted on this site: http://www.debian.org/ports/amd64/ ... with a request that people join the mailing list to submit the results of their experience. -- Tony This is already covered under popularity contest, and also the installation reports. You did fill one out when you installed right? I don't know about you, but i hate to fill out a password to a forum just to post a question. I like the wiki idea but one thing I dislike about Ubuntu is it relies on forums too much. I much like mailing lists and Usenet groups at least that way I don't have to subscribe to fill a bug report. Gnu_Raiz -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
