Re: 'apt-get dist-upgrade' tries to install unneeded packages
Hello, in deed the documentation is very clear concerning the command line options. What I was not able to figure out is what aptitude performs in gui mode when I hit U to schedule all upgradeable packages for an upgrade. I guess upgrade (which is equivalent to safe-upgrade) is used. Does s.o. know for sure? Thanks, Wolfgang.

Re: youtube
The repos you are using are listed in the file /etp/apt/sources.list You can edit this files with your favorite text editor. In the file you find entries like this: deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ sid main contrib non-free As you can see I am using unstable (sid) not testing. Also there are the word main, contrib and non-free. So for this repo I have enabled main, contrib and non-free. Just append contrib and non-free if you want to access them. I think the plugin is named ''flashplugin-nonfree''.

In xorg.conf the keyboard layout was configured correctly but the evdev driver seems to corrupt this configuration. I removed the evdev package and now I have got my layout back.

Re: keyboad leds not responding, kernel 2.6.22-2
Sorry for my last post. I will try to correct it. I think also that it is a problem of xorg. My Keyboard leds are working at tty1 not but under X. An other problem (perhaps relatet) is that I only can use an american keyboard layout (under X). At tty1 I do have german layout (an configure). No idea why.

aptitude "initialising package status" takes _really_ long
Hello list, at the start of aptitude and after every action you have took, aptitude has to initialise its package status. This is the same step as "loading cache". Yesterday I have updated aptitude to . Since then this step takes _really_ long. Lets say 40s. I am on sid. There is no output it any loggs Any hints? Thank you. W.

strange X behaviour
Hello list, since some time I experience problems with my X. I am using X Window System Version 7.1.1 and I have tree monitors set up. Two of them are connected to an nvidia-gforce-6600 based card (nvidia-drivers) and the third one is connected to an old pci grafic-card (s3virge, s3virge driver from Xorg). I am using KDE with kwin. Now, sometimes the screen seemes to freeze. This means, I am typing, and one hit on the keyboard is lost for the text, but used to wake up X again. I think there is coincidence with amarok changing songs, but not shure. So I have switched off the amarok on screen display, but this was without any effect. If the screen is frezzed not even the clock in the taskbar get updated. The second strange thing: sometimes the screens just blank out. My screensaver it tourned off, but the energie controll for the monitors are set to blank the screen off after 4 minutes. There are no strange things (not for me) in the logs. Any hints?

Re: apt-get update yields unfamiliar error {Scanned}
Since the debian packages are signed for not forcing you to install packages from which you do not know, that any bad guy provided them, you need the public key from the person which habe signed them. Otherwise you are not able to check if the signature is valid. So you have to find the public key that was used to sign the packages on http://archive.progeny.com and import it (how was this done?).

how to get all options from dpkg-reconfigure
Hello list, I want to update my refreching rate for my monitor, because I had to switch from a TFT to a normal screen. So I tried to type dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg but I am not asked the questions I know from first set up of the xserver: which resolution and which refreching rate do you want? I do not think that I need to work on another package, xserver-xorg should be the right. But why am I not asked this questions. The same with exim4. At the first time you can choose if exim should handel all mails or just the lokal ones etc. I am also not able to select this behavior by using dpkg. What am I missing? Thank you - W.

two questions about packages
Hello list, since a real long time, two months or so, aptitude always wants to upgrade the package libselinux from version 1.30-1 to version 1.30-1 This is not bad, I think but anoying. Has someone an idea. And another package is a bit strange. The new googleearth-package package. I installed it but this package seems to do nothing. It does not download any google-earth, installs an executable or does something else I was expecting from it. What to do which this thing. I want to try google-earth but if I execute the googleearth.bin I get the nice error: ./setup.sh: line 216: setup.data/bin/Linux/amd64/setup.gtk2: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden ./setup.sh: line 216: setup.data/bin/Linux/amd64/setup.gtk: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden The setup program seems to have failed on amd64 Fatal error, installer failed to run at all!

Help... messed around with insserv
Hello, do you know the programm insserv. It should add startup links for a program to the different runlevels. The system on which it is use should be lsb compabile. I thought that debian is not lsb compatible, but because the programm was available via apt, I used it (OK it is my own fault, not to talk about this...) But I got a lot of messages like this: insserv: warning: script 'bootclean' missing LSB tags insserv: warning: script 'bootclean' missing override too No, the most obvious problem I have is that my network is not configured by dhcp anymore. I have to type dhcp eth1 - and the the card is set up properly. There are a few other services which seems to be trashed by insserv. E.g. discover is startet up two time. I do not know anything about how to organize runlevels. Is there a way to get this thing right, or do I have to reinstall the system? Thank you advance. W.

There were the ip of my local router which is not relly a nameserver bit redirects to the nameserver of my internet provider.

slow browsing with konqueror
Hello list, I experience very slow browsing with konqueror. It takes a big amount of time for konqueror to connect to the other side. Very often it tells me that is waiting for reply. With other Browers, e.g. internetexplorer on another box, browsing is much faster. I do not realy know where to start searching. There is ab bugreport about dns look up with ipv6, but it depends on versions 3.3 and I think this should be fixed. My question is if this is a problem of my setup or if it is a general problem.

Problems with mp3 decoding
Hello list, Since a few days I am not able to play mp3s on my maching. I am running sid. The problem is I do not really know what I have done. There was a problem with k3b which is not able to burn cds for me (v 0.12.1). Because k3b got upgraded I used the k3b-setup to adjust permissions for the case they has gone lost. But this didn't help. No idea if this is related to the mp3 problem but around this time I was not able to start amarok any more. So I deleted the amarokrc and configured it new. But if I choose arts as output engine amarok chrashes. The same thing if I try to play mp3s using kaffeine. But I am able to play the test sound from kcontrol. So I think sound in general should work. Does someone know where where I should start searching? Thank you in advance. W.
