Same problem, my old HP printer worked fine with HPLIP but new HP printers
don't support HPLIP anymore. Finally I bought a Brother that I could
configure very easily with Bookworm. And if needed Brother provides Debian
packages for configuration.

thanks for your reply. Sorry for sending this useless email. I had forgotten
that I was no longer registered on the debian-user list and when I didn't get
a response to my message I realized it and I registered and resent my message.
I read the messages of those who answered me and I thank them. I was asking
for help because I tried to configure the HP Smart Tank 7006 printer but it
was impossible: HPLIP is not suitable, CUPS does not see the printer, avahi
does not either. The Linux driver for this printer is missing. Finally I
returned it and now I'm still looking ... I will think about what Van Snyder
wrote and look elsewhere than at HP ?
Thanks again to all four of you.

printer replacement

2024-08-29 Thread Gerard ROBIN


Hello,
my old hp ptotosmart printer died. It worked fine with HPLIP. Now I have to
buy a new one but they all use "HP Smart" for Windows exclusively. I would
like to know if these printers are still compatible with HPLIP. The printer
I want to buy is the "HP OfficeJet Pro 8134e All-ine-One" which is linux
compatible according to the specifications but which is configurable with
"HP Smart" under Windows. Will HPLIP be valid for this printer also under
linux ? Otherwise how can it be configured ?

tia.

Thank you for your reply. reinstalling fetchmail is not the solution
because on the next start the problem comes back and (I must be stupid)
because despite all the ideas you give me I cannot kill the background
process of fetchmail.
The solution: purge fetchmail and install getmail6.
Getmail6 works well, without complications.

Thanks again.

My problem is that I don't know what starts it.
If I knew what started it I might be able to prevent it from starting.
I never had this problem with bullseye.
Debian Bookworm (and Bullseye too) use systemd.

Thank you for your reply.
The commands 
 systemctl stop fetchmail.service
 systemctl disable fetchmail.service
doesn't work.
I had tried them before sending my message.
I had tried sudo kill -9 ... without success either.
Finally I purged and reinstalled fetchmail and now :
ps ax | grep fetchmail 

3566 pts/0S+ 0:00 grep --color=auto fetchmail

no more daemons in the background and I can load my posts with
fetchmail.
(in Bookworm)
The problem is that I don't know how to fix the problem if it
starts again without purging the package :(

Hello,
in Bullseye (stable) fetchmail works fine, but in Bookworm (testing) I

fetchmail: can't accept options while a background fetchmail is running.
argc = 5, arg list:

No mail arrived since

I answered too quickly:
in fact when I restarted my laptop the problem returned.
By reading the link  https://wiki.debian.org/CpuFrequencyScaling more carefully
I understood that the laptop-mode-tools package was concerned and I noticed that
the laptop-mode-tools package is not installed in BUSTER and so I simply
uninstalled it in BULLSEYE and now it's really OK.

cpu frequence

2020-01-30 Thread Gerard ROBIN
Hello,
the maximum frequency of my cpu is 2.8 GHz and under "bullseye" the frequency
of my cpu is always higher than 2.7 GHz. If this is a bug how can we determine

I read somewhere that the signed kernel was for the "secure boot" of 
microsoft and I have nothing of microsoft on my machine, so that's why 
I installed the unsigned kernel.

Thank you for your clarification.

kernel unsigned

2019-10-03 Thread Gerard ROBIN
Hello,
In my BULLSEYE box, when i make "apt upgrade" if a new kernel is installed
it is a signed kernel that is installed, but on my machine it is an unsigned
kernel that I chose to install. How can you force "apt" to install the
unsigned kernel?
For example:
the kernel linux-image-5.2.0-2-amd64-unsigned is the kernel used.
"apt upgrade" installs the kernel linux-image-5.2.0-3-amd64 (signed)

TIA

PS
sorry but I'm not subscribed to the list for now.

Stretch changes the time of my laptop

Hello,
I installed stretch on a external usb hard drive and when I boot on the
had drive and I shut down, then I boot again, but on the internal hard 
drive, with jessie, the time is delayed by one hour.

I would like to know if this is normal, and if not what can I do to fix
the problem ? (Without going into the bios or using date ...)

It's a old laptop acer aspire 5102 wlmi

Re: Re: Re: live build

2015-08-31 Thread Gerard ROBIN
I got help from the debian-live list (chals)
the file auto/config must be :

#!/bin/sh

set -e

lb config noauto \
--architecture amd64 \
--bootappend-live "boot=live ip=frommedia persistence 
locales=fr_FR.UTF-8 keyboard-layouts=fr" \
--archive-areas "main contrib non-free" \
--debug \

"${@}"

and in the file persistence.conf "/ union" gives global persistence.

ip=frommedia provides the persistence of /etc/network/interfaces

man live-boot for an explanation (thanks chals)

The problem with non-free miraculously disappeared ... ?

Re: Re: live build

thanks for your reply.
I read the documentation before posting, but this documentation

if it can help those who want to try "live build" I put some guidelines
that work for me:

auto/config:

#!/bin/sh

lb config noauto \
--architecture amd64 \
--bootappend-live "boot=live config persistence locales=fr_FR.UTF-8

in the files of the directory config/papckage-lists/  everyone puts what he 
wants.

for my part in the file desktop.list.chroot I put the packages for xfce4 and it 
works very well

for the persistence, the explanations are very vagueness :(

this file persistence.conf woks for me:

cat persistence.conf

/home
/usr union
/etc union

remaining problems:
I don't know how to make the directory network persistent ?
non-free in --archives-areas and prism2-usb-firmware-installer

you need to edit the file /etc/network/inerfaces 
for exemple like this:

auto eth0
allow-hotplug eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp

auto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet dhcp
wpa-conf managed
wpa-ap-scan 1
wpa-sccan-ssid 1
wpa-ssid FOO
wpa-key-mgmt WPA-PSK
wpa-psk keyofFOO

and once this is done as root :

ifdown wlan0
ifup wlan0
or 
systemctl restart networking

I installed jessie on a USB-drive and when I try to connect my printer 
using wifi with hplip-gui it works fine until the fourth stage but the 
fifth step fails. However on the same machine on the internal drive is

I enclose a screenshot of the fifth stage. 

Is it a bug or a simple solution exist?

Ok, I got my feet wet : 

~# apt-get install  systemd-sysv

--8<--

You are about to do something potentially harmful.
To continue type in the phrase 'Yes, do as I say!'

~# Yes, do as I say!

~# apt-get install sysv-rc-conf

and after that wheezy has booted like a charm. Luke

I agree with you regarding jessie, I installed it on a USB drive and 
it works fine with systend, but but what concerns me is the transition 
from sysvinit to systemd on wheezy. If I understand what I read on the
web (in English ...) it may be that my machine will not boot if I do 
not do the job well.

upgrade from wheezy to jessie

2015-01-06 Thread Gerard ROBIN
Hello,
usually when the distribution changes, I update my system rather than 
reinstall everything. But for the transition from wheezy to jessie, 
I would like to know:

-1- Is it possible to go from wheezy to jessie, keeping sysvinit.

-2- if not, from what I read on the internet, go from sysvinit to
systemd is not without risk. What about it exactly?

(I would say that I am not concerned whether sytemd is better or 
worse than sysvinit. I'm not proficient enough ...)

Thanks for your reply.
I downloaded the tarballs corresponding to rezound and I installed all the 
libraries so that "configure" succeed, but in the end,  I needed to  install 
libjpeg62-turbo, and libjpeg62-turbo  wants to remove rezound.
No luck.
(I tried "audacity" but the recording quality is much better with rezound)

Regarding "twinkle", "linphone" can do the job but for my use I prefer 
"twinkle".
(but all things must end ...)

rezound, twinkle in jessie ?

2014-12-22 Thread Gerard ROBIN
Hello,
I installed jessie on a external hard drives, (usb) I use rezound and
twinkle which are in squeeze only. They work fine in jessie but the
command "apt-get dist-upgade" propose to me to remove five packages and
among them rezound and twinkle.
My question: rezound and twinkle are they doomed to disappear from debian ?

tia.

wpa_supplicant: /sbin/wpa_supplicant daemon failed to start

2013-10-15 Thread Gerard ROBIN
Hello,
(I use wheezy xfce)
I'm not subscribed to debian-user but I have a problem that looks like a 
bug but I do not know which package is concerned.
After last upgrade I get this message at boot time:

-8<-
Listening on LPF/wlan0/00:19:7d:02:46:aa
Sending on   LPF/wlan0/00:19:7d:02:46:aa

-8<-
DHCPDISCOVER on wlan0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 6
receive_packet failed on wlan0: Network is down
-8<-

however wicd works fine.

on another machine with the same config (wheezy xfce) not upgraded 
the problem does not occur and wpasupplicant (wlan0) works fine.

On the two machines there is the same version of wpasupplicant:
apt-cache policy wpasupplicant
wpasupplicant:
  Installed : 1.0-3+b1
  Candidat : 1.0-3+b1

Thank you for advice.

I use Debian 5.0, and I want to install shutter
(http://shutter-project.org/). The source.list I currently used
doesn't have this software. Can anyone recommend a source list for it?


Shutter isn't in lenny but in Squeeze and in Sid.
If you change your sources.list all your system will be changed to squeeze ...
Otherwise you can try to install shutter manualy i.e. :
download the pakage shutter
(http://packages.debian.org/unstable/graphics/shutter)
and its dependencies and install them with "sudo dpkg  -i shutter dep1 de2 ...

good luck.

with gnome: xterm "no file or folder of this type

2009-08-09 Thread Gerard Robin

Hello,
My system: Debian, Sid, Gnome, kernel 2.6.30

At this moment I encounter a strange problem:
(I note that I removed gnome-terminal "and" xterm "on my system. I use
only roxterm.)
In the menu I add mocp (which is in the package moc, common music on line)
I choose "Application in a terminal" then in command I put "mocp" (or 
"/usr/bin/mocp").

Then I do:
"Applications -> Sound & Video -> mocp" and I get:
Failed to execute child process
xterm "no file or folder of this type
(I chose mocp as an example but the problem occurs with all applications that 
go into a terminal.) 
The problem is that xterm is not installed on my machine ...

Yet I did go in:
"System -> Control Center -> Preferred Applications -> System"
customised terminal emulator
Command: roxterm
Indicator:-e
But that does nothing
If I do: "update-alternatives --list x-terminal-emulator"
I get as expected: "/usr/bin/roxterm"

It is not very annoying because mocp runs very well in a
roxterm, but I can't find what to change so that the system 
no longer search xterm but roxterm when I start mocp using 
the menu ?

Thank you in advance if anyone can enlighten me on this problem.

Bonjour,

Iceape ne sera pas remplacé, car la raison de son retrait est le manque de
bras???

Vous pourrez trouver plus d'explications en anglais sur la page suivante:

Je me demender ou (la site) je peu trouver l'Original de Iceape...

My box runs fine now.
If this can be useful for others I did:

I bootted on knoppix V 5.3
In a terminal, as root: mount -o rw /dev/hda2 /media/hda2
/dev/hda2 is the partition / (which must contain the directories /boot and /etc) 
then cd /media/hda2
finally: lilo -C etc/lilo.conf -r /media/hda2  
did the trick.


However it is not normal that my mbr was altered when I installed some
packages.

I'm currently downloading 6 iso's for Fedora 9 on dialup, and am not too

All my current Debian Installs, Sarge, Etch, and Lenny, were installed using 
my Woody 3.0r2 disks. I have a new machine, and don't want to go through the 
hassle of upgrading Woody to Sarge, then Etch, along with the transition to 
xorg again.


Could someone kindly point me to where I can get the base install for Etch, 
including KDE. I don't mind downloading 4 or 5 iso's if this is necessary.


Many thanks for any help with this problem.

To copy a .wav file from an audio CD-ROM, I do:

.  How can manage things so to omit the device specification?


when I do: icedax -t 4  (now (in debian) cdda2wav is a symbolic link to icedax)
I get:
icedax: No such file or directory. Cannot open '-1'. Cannot open SCSI driver.
icedax: For possible targets try 'wodim -scanbus'. Make sure you are root.
Use the script scan_scsi.linux to find out more.
Probably you did not define your SCSI device.
Set the CDDA_DEVICE environment variable or use the -D option.
You can also define the default device in the Makefile.
For possible transport specifiers try 'wodim dev=help'.

You can also define the default device in the Makefile.

I've had a number of occaisions where cups has just failed for me like
that with a "...foomatic-rip failed" message. On different occaisions
I've had different solutions work: 


purge cups* and foomatic* and
anything else printing related I can find and start over 


remove ~/.gnome (not sure why this worked, but it did once).

remove the existing printer, shutdown cups completely, restart it
and re-add the printer

other mysterious mumbo-jumbo that magically fixes printing... :(


It's a big complicated system and seems overly prone to breakage IMO.


I did all everything you explained to me but always .../foomatic-rip failed.

However it's ok now :-) 
The problem was caused by me ;-)

I use apt-listbugs and I saw six bugs on ghostscript so I put hold in
the selections file.

But five bugs have been corrected and so I decided to upgrade
ghostscript and after that the jobs of the spool is sent to the printer.

I apologise for the inconvenient caused.

Ummm, read it again Sam, er Andy.

-8<-

you will see that it doesn't specifically report that there is no
package "postix" only that there is no record of it. Maybe that's a
problem with BTS in that it should give more explicit information. But
at the same time, why does BTS care about every package? It should
only care about those that actually have bugs (a very fine distinction,
I know). I'm curious what BTS would report for the mythical "never had
a bug report" package. And if apt-listbugs has to start being aware of
whether a package exists or not, at what point does it begin to
over-duplicate the package searching capabilities of the apt
frontends? 


Also, I suppose there is a possibly faulty assumption that since
apt-listbugs is designed to be run through an apt frontend then typos
aren't really a concern. Obviously, at least one user calls it
directly, so the devs might want to consider that. 


If apt-listbugs is make to be triggered by apt-get, it anwsers to my
"small" comment and so it's to the user of apt-listbugs to verfy wether the
package postix exists or not.  


Thanks

Make sure the normal user is a member of both 'lpadmin' and 'scanner'

I added, says "userfoo", in lpadmin and scanner and now xsane starts an

Thanks, runs fine now. 
It was not obvious that the probem comes from dpkg.

"invoke-rc.d dictd stop" gets long time.

2008-01-22 Thread Gerard Robin

hello,

time sudo invoke-rc.d dictd stop

real0m30.055s
user0m0.024s
sys 0m0.028s

The same problem arises when I shutdown my box to stop all the services and the
machine stops after a very long time.

This happens after a recent upgrade in sid.

would you be able to advice, please, how to use idiotcal program Mutt?
For example, how to configure mail account settings?
Maybe Mutt does'nt worth to use at all?


Mutt is an excellent MUA. (Mail User Agent) 
If mutt is installed on your box go to: /usr/share/doc/mutt/exemples

to see examples of files .muttrc (the file of configuration of mutt)
To get your mails you need fetchmail. (man fetchmail)
To split up your mails use procmail. (man procmail)

and follow the advice of R. J.

Also, how is an ordinary user supposed to click on anything and change
the system time.  Root shouldn't be running X to be able to change the
system time.  Unless the thing the user clicks on links to some su
system.


In GNOME (wife's machine), right clicking the panel clock gives and
"Adjust Date & Time" option, which invokes some gnome-sudo hook.


I use gnome on my laptop and I can adjust the time as you say, but in
fact, I have installed the package ntp and after that no need to use
date or other program to get accurate time.

Sorry, I am confuse:
about two weeks ago my laptop hibernated normally when the ac adapter
was on-line, but now only the screen is sleeping.
If the ac adapter is off-line the laptop hibernates normally and when I
resume I get a message:
problem of sleeping, hibernate failed

There are two questions:
1 - Why I get the error message since the laptop seems (for me) hibernate
and resume normally ? (ac adapter off-line)
2 - Why the laptop doesn't hibernate when the ac adapter is on-line now ?

Thanks

 Do you know other Linphone users with the same problem? It may be an

it to the version with which Linphone worked fine). Just guessing,
though.

Sorry I must corrected that I said earlier,  when I started my computer today
linphone worked fine my correspondant heard me and I heard him.
I needed to reboot my machine to make linphone able to work.(with libosip2-3

with libosip2-3 (3.0.3-2) there is the same error.

I had reinstalled libosip2-3 but the result was the same.
I just downgrad to libosip2-3 (2.2.2-3.1) instead libosip2-3 (3.0.3-2)
and now linphone starts witout complain,


 I have downloaded both versions of the package and the contents
(files) seem switched. That is, package version 2.2.2-3.1 contains
libosip*2.so.3.0.0 and version 3.0.3-2 contains libosip*2.so.2.2.0.
Looks like a packaging mistake - can anyone confirm, or am I just
confused? It would explain why Linphone breaks after upgrading
libosip2-3.


I can ring a friend but he
can't hear me and I can't hear him.
I think there is a bug.


 Do you know other Linphone users with the same problem? It may be an
issue with audio system, not the oSIP library (since you have reverted
it to the version with which Linphone worked fine). Just guessing,
though.


No I don't know another user who use linphone ;-) (the ordinary french
deosn't know linux ...) 
I agree with you I think that the bug doesn't come from linphone itself.


thanks

I don't see the last entry in the results of the find command.

yes but it's a symbolic link to ld-2.6.1.so:

ls -la /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 :
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 11 2007-08-07 23:08 /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 -> 
ld-2.6.1.so*


I doubt the process would know that.  It may look for the link name and
fail if it is not found.  Create the link in your jail and try again.


ok, now I have:
ls -l /f:
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root  72 2007-08-20 20:10 bin/
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 216 2007-08-20 22:07 lib/
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root   6 2007-08-20 22:00 lib64 -> /f/lib/


Seems to me that symlink target ought to be lib/ or /lib/, since /f/lib/
won't be visible when you chroot to /f/.

Ken


ok it's fine now, I am an idiot ;-)
Many thanks to you and to Neil.
