Instalar Debían sin Cd-Dvd

[Manuel Anguren Sanjulian]

Hola
Llevo años viendo siempre el mismo problema de las instalaciones Linux que
si no se tiene un cd- dvd donde venga la distribución,  EL GRAN LINUX Y SU
GRAN COMUNIDAD no lo han resuelto porque no existe esa comunidad que tanto
pregona trabaja para mejorar Debían.
Parece ser que se quedaron colgados con los cd-dvd y ya no han sabido
actualuizar las cosas.
Hoy en día se usa mucho más cualquier tipo de almacenamiento que los cd-dvd
y por eso tendrían que haber solucionado los problemas de instalaciones
Linux que no usen cd-dvd.
Años quejándose mucha gente y nadie hace nada y todo sigue igual.
¿Os creeréis que voy a creerme que esta gran comunidad Linux está por la
labor?
Solo tendrian que ponerse un día a cambiar los kernel o lo que se tenga que
cambiar para que cualquiera pudiera instalar cualquier distribución desde
cualquier unidad que no sea el puto cd-dvd que Linux parece otorgarle los
mayores privilegios.
Por estas chorradas El Gran Linux deja mucho que desear y su comunidad .
Saludos

Re: Running lighttpd as different user: /run/lighttpd still gets created with www-data user and group

[Manuel Wagesreither]

Hello Sven,

thanks for your immediate reply! I did not have opportunity to see if it works, 
but I would be very astonished if it wouldn't! It seems like a perfect fit. 
Interesting, I did not not about this part of systemd before.

Thanks again and best regards,

Running lighttpd as different user: /run/lighttpd still gets created with www-data user and group

[Manuel Wagesreither]

Hello all,

I'm running an minbase installation of Debian Stretch and have configured 
lighttpd to run as a different, non-www-data user. However, when booting, 
lighttpd does not start successfully, as /run/lighttpd is still owned by 
www-data. Only when I'm chowning it to the different user, lighttpd can be 
started successfully.

The system is booting from a readonly image. /run does exist there, but it not 
populated with a lighttpd directory.
The readonly image gets created using debootstrap. After debootstrapping, a few 
shell scripts run which change lighttpd to run as a different user.

In detail, the shell scripts are
* replacing occurences of www-data by the new username in 
/etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf and /etc/init.d/lighttpd, and
* chownign the webroot, /var/log/lighttpd, /var/cache/lighttpd/compress, 
/var/cache/lighttpd/uploads

At which point does /run/lighttpd get created, and how can I control the owning 
user and group of this directory?

Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Manuel Wagesreither

Gnome Update Notifications in Jessie

[Manuel Lorenzo]

Hello all,

Gnome Update Notifications seem not to work in my vanilla installation
of Jessie.
I have read that Gnome-Packagekit should be taking care of this and
that it's a bug that is supposed to be solved [1], but actually in my
system it doesn't look for updates automatically.

On the other hand, running manually Update Manager works as
expected.So I suppose the problem is related to auto checking them.

As Update Manager doesn't have any configurable options, I used dconf
to check org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.updates (which is the only
place I found that has Updates related configurations) and all seems
to be OK: it's activated and configured to check for updates every 24
hours (86.400 s) and notify them every 7 days (604.800 s).

I know I can use unattended-upgrades and other tools, but I want to
know what is happening to Update Manager: if I have to configure
something manually or I am doing something wrong.

Any help is appreciated.

Cheers,

Manuel

If you are migrating in Linux, just copy .icedove directory to

I've done it from thunderbird to icedove and viceversa.

Although I do not know why this should be debian-related, it is a small
typing mistake:

it must be
type="img/png" data="data:image/png;base64,
iVBORw0KGgoNSUhEUgAAAIYAAADyEAQAAAByU6mOAmJLR0T//xSrMc0JcEhZcwAA...

instead of
type="img/png" data="data:base64,
iVBORw0KGgoNSUhEUgAAAIYAAADyEAQAAAByU6mOAmJLR0T//xSrMc0JcEhZcwAA...

It is actually documented in the W3C sheet you refer to.

you can achieve this by using dovecot sieve

for example:

logrotate won't finish, high cpu usage

[manuel]

Hi!

recently i've been experiencing problems with logrotate, each time it runs
it 
gets kinda stuck and eats up the systems cpu for days without finishing (i 
don't have that many/big logfiles to rotate)

the output of "logrotate -d -v /etc/logrotate.conf" just stops at "reading 
config info for /var/log/btmp"

the logrotate configuration for /var/log/btmp looks like this:
> /var/log/btmp {
>missingok
>monthly
>create 0660 root utmp
>rotate 1
> }

when i run strace on the logrotate pid i get the following message
appearing 
over and over again..
> stat64("/etc/localtime", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=2211, ...}) = 0

logrotate is running in a linux-vserver-guest
version: logrotate-3.7.1-5
kernel: 2.6.26-2-vserver-686 #1 SMP Wed Feb 10 10:39:33 UTC 2010 i686 
GNU/Linux

i can't really tell what time it has stopped working and what changed at
that 
moment, but it has been working for a while before.

thanks in advice

manuel hofer

Debian and touch-screens

[Jose Manuel Pérez]

Hi all.

I´m working in a project that we would like to install in a touch-screen 
compact computer. My intention is to use Debian as the OS, and i'm searching 
for that kind of hardware with support for Debian/Linux. Most of them support 
Windows but it´s not clear if Debian will work as well. I've found some support 
for touch screens (some models), but not clear for integrated/compact systems. 
Someone knows where to look for?, or has some experience?, some URL?

Thanks in advance,

Lenny stable does not assign correct permissions to USB devices

[Manuel]

Hola list,

  After my migration from Lenny testing to Lenny stable U'm unable to import 
photos from my own user as a default. I get the following error:

$ LC_ALL=C LANG=C gphoto2 --list-files

*** Error ***
An error occurred in the io-library ('Could not claim the USB
device'): Could not claim interface 0 (Operation not permitted). Make
sure no other program or kernel module (such as sdc2xx, stv680,
spca50x) is using the device and you have read/write access to the
device.
*** Error (-53: 'Could not claim the USB device') ***

For debugging messages, please use the --debug option.
Debugging messages may help finding a solution to your problem.
If you intend to send any error or debug messages to the gphoto
developer mailing list , please run
gphoto2 as follows:

   env LANG=C gphoto2 --debug --debug-logfile=my-logfile.txt --list-files

Please make sure there is sufficient quoting around the arguments.

This error is in the gphoto FAQ but the problem here is not related to 
additional modules, what is happening is that USR dev files are asigned to 
root:root

$ lsusb
Bus 005 Device 004: ID 04a9:3145 Canon, Inc.

$ ls -l /dev/bus/usb/005/004
crw-rw-r-- 1 root root 189, 515 feb 22 07:26 /dev/bus/usb/005/004

If I did change to one of my assigned groups all works as required

$ sudo chgrp -R powerdev /dev/bus/usb/*

$ LC_ALL=C LANG=C gphoto2 --list-files
There is no file in folder '/'.
There is no file in folder '/store_00020001'.
There is no file in folder '/store_00020001/DCIM'.
There is no file in folder '/store_00020001/DCIM/100CANON'.
There is no file in folder '/store_00020001/MISC'.

... so the problem is related to runtime assigned permissions

The problem is provably related to the testing-to-stable migration. I do not 
know which is the package related so I can't report it as a bug


Does some one has the same problem fixed or may help me resolve this issue?

Joiner for Linux

[Manuel Gomez]

I am searching a joiner for Linux. I need to join an document with
another archive, and i want can open the document without problems.

I am not creating a trojan or something, its for add size to specific
documents (security-> If the document have 5 kbs it takes 5 sec download
it, but if the document have 500 mb it takes a couple of days, and i
turn off the connection constantly. Believe me, for me is usefull).

Somebody could help me?

Help - Restrict root privileges - What is indispensable?

[Manuel Gomez]

Hi, i would like to restrict the privileges of root. Now goes the
question: why?

I only need the essential for run my OS:

Can access to my frontend netfilter (iptables) shorewall.
Use chmod, run sh scripts, and any command essential for running the OS.

I would like more security, and i have to open gksu constantly, so i
have chossen this. I not going to use sudo because Shorewall doesn't

Hi, i would like to read opinions about my firewall settings:


I am using Iptables with Shorewall (frontend) and my configuration is:


- Default Policy: REJECT all connections.


- Rules: Allow DNS (my DNS servers), allow http and https connections 
for servers: www.google.es, ...



So, nobody except these servers can connect with me (inbound and outbound).


This type of configuration is secure?  How could they attack me?

Well, even if the improvement is not great, it's an improvement. So it's

Alsa and virtualbox-ose. I tried with alsa-source from sid as well as
from testing, and virtualbox-ose-source only from testing (I'm basically
running testing except when I *need* bleeding edge versions).

Yes, actually it's ok. I forgot to rename the 2.6.26 directory to
2.6.27-rc5 after patching it, so that's why I thought it was using the
wrong headers.

Oh yes, exactly. I had this problem while trying to compile the modules
for virtualbox. Would a symlink be fine to make sure everyone can find
semaphore.h where it expects it?

Thanks,

Wow. Here I can't do tests since my only other local machine has slow

card won't reconnect to the AP if it goes down then up unless I reload
the driver... fortunately, my AP doens't go down that often).

Well, since ath9k is working well, I don't think I'll try to go back to
madwifi. Now the only drawback is, module-assistant doesn't succed any
more in building modules: I'm under the impression it tries to use the
2.6.26 headers...

EDUx.pt - Novo projecto (www.eduxpt.org)

[Rui Manuel Martins]

EDUx.pt (www.eduxpt.org) é um projecto que nasceu como resposta à 
agressividade sentida, pelos docentes não-docentes e alunos, nas escolas 
que, recentemente, migraram para Software Livre (Linux, OpenOffice, 
entre outros). A ideia surgiu de um aluno do 12º ano, no âmbito da 
disciplina de Área de Projecto, e neste momento, a equipa é já composta 
por elementos com habilitações  universitárias, estudantes e 
utilizadores avançados de Linux.


Este projecto pretende atingir vários objectivos que conduzem a uma 
mesma finalidade, facilitar o uso do Software Livre nas escolas 
portuguesas para que este tenha maior impacto no quotidiano.


Destaco os principais objectivos do projecto: 

-Criação de uma distribuição Linux baseada em Debian com algumas 
alterações de sistema e com integração, por defeito, de software educativo;


-Criação de documentação, ou tradução de da mesma já existente noutras 
línguas, capaz de ajudar os utilizadores no uso destas ferramentas;


-Tradução de algum software educativo importante que se encontra 
distribuido noutros idiomas que não o português;


-Divulgação devida do projecto para que sejam mais as escolas a optarem 
pelo gratuito Software Livre e abdicarem do dispendioso Software 
Proprietário;


Neste momento a equipa conta com as colaborações de um programador, um 
tradutor (também programador), do Instituto Superior de Engenharia do 
Porto (ISEP) e com o projecto escolaslivres.org. Estão, também, a serem 
establecidos contactos com a Universidade de Aveiro.
A comunidade WebTuga (www.webtuga.com <http://www.webtuga.com/>) 
ofereceu domínio e alojamento ao projecto, o que é importantíssimo. 
Apoiam e patrocinam o EDUx.pt e estão de parabéns pelo óptimo serviço 
que têm prestado até agora.


Procuramos programadores, designers, tradutores, utilizadores de Linux 
ou outro tipo de Software Livre que possam colaborar e pertencer a este 
projecto. São, também, agradecidas parcerias com pequenas ou grandes 
empresas que tenham interesse em projectos deste tipo.

/proc/cpuinfo doesn't show "em64t" but does show if your cpu support
64b. It's indicated by the presence of the lm flag (Long Mode).

But yes, Intel Core 2 is 64b, that's the main difference between the
Core  and the Core 2.

pero me gustaría poder trabajar con Linux.


Ya he conseguido instalar Debian Linux con el CD 1 en una nueva partición 
que creé con el instalador de Debian después de inutilizarla para Vista. 
Ahora cuando arranco me aparece el menú de opción de un sistema operativo y 
puedo arrancar con Linux o con Vista según yo escoja. Pero necesito 
conseguir los drivers para los adaptadores de red como mínimo y me está 
costando mucho encontrarlos.


Mi equipo es ASUS F5 ENTERTAIMENT SYSTEM X50R.

Si supiesen cómo conseguirlos les agradecería muchísimo que me ayudasen, 
sobre todo los de los adaptadores de red normal e inalámbrico. Los modelos 
son: ATTANSIC L2 FAST ETHERNET 10/100 Base-T Controller. La WIFI es Broadcom 
802.11g.

Troubles with my modem

[Carlos Manuel GV]

My problem:

I have a M70 Toshiba Satellite and Debian 4.0 installed.
I already have sl-modem-daemon packet and I´ve configured several times
/etc/wvdial.conf and checked /etc/ppp/ppers/wvdial, pap-secrets and
chap-secrets, and from root I gave privileges to users have access to them.
I have gnome-ppp too to access ppp from gnome.

By wvdial through root, I almost get modem connected but I always get an
error in idle time that doesn´t let me contiune.

With gnome-ppp have the next error-message:
<***>

--> Ignoring malformed input line: ";Do NOT edit this file by hand!"
--> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.56
--> Cannot get information for serial port.
--> Initializing modem.

I´ll really appreciate if you can guide me, last time with Debian in my
PC I got my modem ready, but now I can´t.

Thanks a lot,

If you can't find a ready-made free solution, you can piece it together:
a database (e.g. postgresql), with a custom front-end in python.

I think you will struggle to find a direct replacement for proprietry
insurance systems but more information might help. Is this life or
general insurance and what does he want to do with the information?

A database or PIM application may do what he wants but it will require
time and effort to learn/develop a solution.

Hi Manuel,
I am not aware of any specific software for the Insurance industry. You
might check freshmeat.net and sourceforge for something. Although there
may be something that can be adapted to his/her needs. Maybe he/she can
write a specification for this software and see if anyone may want to do it.
There are even people who create monitary bounties for software.
Cheers,
Kev

bug hda VS sda

[José Manuel Ruiz]

Severity: media

Soy usuario de Debian desde hace unos aprox. 2 años. Con la llegada de
los discos duros SATA y su precio asequible he comprado uno, no quería
volver a reinstalar mi SO así que puse a Debian una vez más a prueba.
Copié todo lo que tenía en / al disco nuevo, modifiqué las líneas
correspondientes
el grub e instale grub en el MBR del nuevo disco.

Has aquí todo perfecto, Debian una vez más no me decepcionó y funcionó
perfectamente.

Aquí es donde llega el problema. Una vez instalado corriendo el
sistema (GNU/Linux Debian 4.0) totalmente estable, decidí formatear mi
antiguo disco
ext3 para reutilizarlo en otro Pc que utilizo servidor. Utilicé
Gparted y nosé si es por culpa de Gparted o por culpa del sistema que
no permite el formateo
de /dev/hda

Nota: No tenía montada la unidad cuando intenté hacer el formateo a ext3.

Es posible que sea una protección del kernel para no reventar un
sistema, pero creo que esto debería cambiar porque con los nuevos
discos SATA, hda
pasará a ser una unidad más de almacenamiento en lugar de ser donde
esté colgado el sistema.

Finalmente conseguí formatear el disco poniéndolo como esclavo, una
vez detectado como /dev/hdb no tuve ningún problema al formatearlo.

Un saludo.

latex pdfetex elatex

[Manuel . Yguel]

Hello,
I was unable to obtain dvi files with the latex program from tetex-bin testing
package (it was a symbolic link towards pdfetex that seems to refuse all my kind
of "--output-format dvi" commands).
Thus I downgrade all the tetex package into stable version and then when trying
to use latex it fails with the following error message:

This is e-TeX, Version 3.14159-2.1 (Web2C 7.4.5)
(Fatal format file error; I'm stymied)

After reading the faq and recompiling all the fmt format: same consequences.

!!> But when I try elatex, IT WORKS. Therefore latex, elatex are symlinks
towards the same program etex!
Thus I conclude that somehow etex analysis the way the program is launched,
which is a bit obfuscating for me.
In the same manner, pdfetex which was working on my testing version, now does
not work anymore but pdflatex does.
I finally fix my config with an alias from latex to elatex.
I find it not pretty, but for the moment I can have both dvi and pdf generated
which is very nice.

Is there anywhere a good description of what etex does in which version ?
The manual pages seems to say that all I tried should have worked, but it 
didn't.
Thanks and I hope that my workaround would be usefull for some other debian 
users.

Manuel

Hello,

start, and there is in logfile:

Is it possible to adapt freeradius to ms windows EAP without  
recompilation? If so, I would be gratefull for config files.


Hello.

I've set up something similar, but I couldn't do it with debian  
package. That package does not include rlm_eap_tls.so, so it does not  
work. Finally I've downloaded source from freeradius web site and  
I've compiled it (version 1.0.5). Now it works ok.
It is not a config problem but a compilation problem, I mean, library  
rlm_eap_tls.so is needed for TLS but it's not included (I don't know  
why) in the package.
Compiling from source is easy. Now I have it working with EAP-TLS and  
PAP with users in LDAP and clients with OS/X, Windows XP, Windows  
Mobile 2005 and Linux.

Manuel - you still have something wrong with your user.  Look at
the line immediately above.  It says:

   "Access denied for user 'postfix'@'localhost'.

So when postfix/courier is doing a mysql database lookup, it is
presently doing so as user 'postfix'.  Yet you state that you've set
up everything to be user 'provider_admin'.

So check your entries in the mysql DB again in the user and db
tables.

Also, in /etc/postfix, you should have something similar to:

mysql-virtual_domains.cf
mysql-virtual_email2email.cf
mysql-virtual_forwardings.cf
mysql-virtual_lists_transport.cf
mysql-virtual_mailboxes.cf

Double check that each of these is correct.  For example, my
mysql-virtual_domains.cf file has:

user = vmail
password = xxx
dbname = provider
table = domains
select_field = transport
where_field = domain
hosts = 127.0.0.1

... and in my mysql db, in the user table, I have a user named
'vmail' that is only allowed to log in from localhost and has no
default priviledges.  In the mysql database, db table I have an
entry for User 'vmail', Host 'localhost' and Db 'provider'.  And
associated with this entry is where this user gets all the necessary
permissions for accessing the database 'provider'.

vmail is my equivalent of your 'provider_admin'.

You should be able to open up an xterm on the server and type the
following:

$ mysql -u provider_admin -p provider

... and be prompted for the password for provider_admin.  If you
cannot do this and gain command line entry to the provider database,
then you still do not have the mysql db entries right for your user.

If you can do this, then I suspect you have an error in your
mysql-virtual_x.cf files.

Kevin

In your .cf files you've identified the user as "provider_admin".

Have your created a user in your mysql db/user table called
"provider_admin"?

This is the main mysql db, not any of the provider db/tables you
might have created.  This user (in your case 'provider_admin') does
not need any priviledges in the user table.  You do that in the
mysql/db table.

So in this same db (mysql), you'll also need an entry in the db
table.  You should make an entry where user=provider-admin,
db=provider, and host=localhost.

Recapping:
--
   Database:   mysql

   Table:  user

   create a new user 'provider_admin' with no priviledges

--

   Database:   mysql

   Table:  db

   create an entry for:

   user=provider_admin
   host=localhost
   db=provider (i presume)

HTH,

Kevin

Re: Re: annoying iptables messages

[Luís Manuel Silveira Russo]

Hi,

I just had the same problem. It seems to me that if you don't want the
messages to be stored at all you should stop them from being logged.

I installed kmyfirewall to manage my iptables. It generates the iptables
script automatically. The following lines enable logging:

for i /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/*/log_martians; do
echo 1 > $i
done

So if you just dont want to log the packages change it to:

for i /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/*/log_martians; do
echo 0 > $i
done

It works for me.

Re: Re: Re: VT switching broken in Gnome

[Garcia, Jose Manuel]

I had exactly the same problem as you after i upgraded my debian. I think the problem 
is related to key mappings. To solve the problem you can rename the .Xmodmap file in 
your home folder to .Xmodmap.bak or whatever you want, so gnome doesn't loads this 
configuration file. It works fine for me.

> cd /home/username
> mv .Xmodmap .Xmodmap.bak

php4-odbc problem

[Manuel Martínez Valls]

Hi,

  I've a little problem with a Debian woody machine with the postgresql-7.4
deb package downloaded from:

ftp://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/binary/v7.4/debian/ woody/main/binary-i386/

  When I use the substring sql command from a php script via an ODBC DSN I
get no result. By example:

  $query = "select SUBSTRING(field_name,3)from table_name;";

  echo "$query";
  $resul = odbc_exec($conex, $query);

  if ($resul == 0){
 printf("Error %d \n", $resul);
 exit ();
  }

  $number_of_rows = odbc_num_rows($resul);
  if ($number_of_rows > 0)
  {
 for ($i=1; $i < $number_of_rows + 1; $i++)
 {
$ret = odbc_fetch_into($resul, &$field);
echo "field_name=$field[0]";
 }
  }

   This code returns a lot of empty rows.

   If I use the same query using the isql tool (with same DSN), i get the
same number of rows with the correct.

   The rest of the php odbc scripts work fine, the only problem is with the
queries containing SUBSTRING queries...

   I've installed the following packages:

booting problems after installing lm-sensors kernel modules from sid / can't mount root fs

[Manuel Bilderbeek]

Hello all,

A couple of days ago, I installed these packages from sid:
 lm-sensors-2.4.21-4-k7 2.8.0-1
 i2c-2.4.21-4-k7 2.8.0-1
I have done this before many times, to save myself the trouble of 
compiling these kernel modules myself. I'm running a testing system with 
the 2.4.21-4-k7 stock kernel, you see.

Anyway, this time it didn't work out. When I rebooted my system next 
time, there was some error during boot which had at least this text in 
it "S20modutils Segmentation fault". So, my interpretation is that 
during the loading of these new kernel modules, there occured a 
segmentation fault in the module load program. After this message there 
was a little bit more text (about USB), but then a hang.
In other words: I couldn't boot the system anymore.

OK, but I still have the LinuxOLD entry in my LILO menu. Since I'm 
running stock kernels, this should be starting my previous kernel 
anytime. So, I chose the option, and it booted until it had to mount the 
root fs. There I got a kernel panic: can't mount root fs. (No clear 
reason was mentioned...) Oops. My root fs is /dev/hda6, which is an ext3 
fs. Even specifying
LinuxOLD root=/dev/hda6
didn't help.

So, I took my older (Woody-beta) installation cd and booted with "rescue 
root=/dev/hda6". Also, this didn't work out: again a kernel panic, 
because it can't mount the root fs... This time there was some error 
about "unsupported optional features".

I tried some more tricks, like making boot floppies with a bf2.4 flavour 
(of Woody), which I got from some Debian FTP. No go, can't mount root fs.

I tried some more suggestions from people in #debian on 
irc.freenode.net, but nothing worked.

In the mean time, I have fixed my "Linux" boot, by using a Knoppix cd 
and removing the module names from /etc/modules. However, I still can't 
boot my LinuxOLD stuff.

Is there anyone who can tell me what is going wrong?
I know I could boot my LinuxOLD thing in the past. It's just a long time 
ago I needed it.

Does Debian support IDE disks with more than 128GiB or IDE 48bit addressing?

[Jose Manuel dos Santos Calhariz]

Hi,

I have a Samsung disk with 149GiB of space and my experience is
mixed.  

What you know, or you experience with disks with more than 128GiB
working with Debian (Woody or Sarge)?

As I said my experience is mixed.  The motherboard is an Asus A7V with
the last BIOS that supports 48bit addressing, have two IDE controllers
Ove VIA VT82C686/VT82C586B and the other is Promise 20265.  Both of
them identify the right size (149Gib) and I can make the partitions
with fdisk or cfdisk without problems with Debian kernels 2.4.21-3-k7
and 2.4.20-3-k7 or a personalized 2.4.21 to include lmsensors, i2c,
alsa, and nvidia-kernel.  I have an woody system with some packages
upgraded to sarge.

I can make a file system with more than 128GiB if connected to the VIA
controller, but connected to the Promise I will have a corrupted file
system.  

- So I believe that kernel 2.4.21 with Promise don't support IDE
48bit.

- With VIA controller I have doubts, at least one time I had data
corruption.  That caused me to lose the extended partition with all my
Linux file systems, more than 120GiB of data on LVM volumes.

Gnome Panel and Gnome 2 migration in sarge; user problems

[Manuel Bilderbeek]

Hi all,

I'm running testing and update every couple of days.
For my desktop I use WindowMaker and the Gnome panel to launch apps and 
have some cool applets in (Gnome Tasklist, CPU/Mem Usage Applet, CPU 
Load Applet, a swallowed pload, Mail check applet, ASClock, Mixer 
Applet, etc). I really use these applets a lot!

Yesterday I noticed that a large number of Gnome packages were migrated 
to 2.2, and so was the Gnome panel. The first problem was that 'panel' 
didn't work anymore, but that was easily solved by changing my .xsession 
script to run 'gnome-panel' instaed.

Allright, all my Gnome 1 stuff was gone; not strange, since everyting is 
now in the ~/.gnome2 dir, it seemed. OK, not a big problem, I thought, 
I'll just put the same applets and launchers in the Gnome 2 panel. 
Several problems occurred:
- the Gnome terminal launcher that was in the predefined default top 
panel doesn't work: it pops up a message that it failed to launch...
- there was no way to change the panel type. I wanted a 'corner panel', 
but I couldn't change the panel type of the two edge panels. Easily 
solved: remove the panels and create new ones.
- Trying to populate the panel I found the following problems:
  - The equivalent to the tasklist doesn't work: it remains empty, 
although many windows are in the screen
  - THere are hardly any applets!
There was no (good) equivalent for
- the CPU/Mem usage applet
- CPU Load Applet
- ASClock, only a very simple textual clock, with unconfigurable 
background color
- a Netload applet (like the swallowed pload), only textual ones
- the Mixer applet
- XMMS applet
  - There's no possibility to swallow apps

To get some more applets available, I tried to install some Gnome 2 
packages that were still in unstable and not in testing. This at least 
gave me some sort of CPU/Mem/Net/Swap applet, but it isn't just as good 
as the one I was used to... (that one was very clear and compact.)
Also, this gave me a mixer applet (which doesn't have a configurable 
color... again a grey thing in the nice purple panel...)

What is the problem? Are there very little applets available because no 
one is porting the old 1.4 applets to 2.x?

The result is that I have a very crappy Gnome panel now, while I used to 
have a very nice, almost fully working (there was some graphics 
corruption in it (since I applied a theme)) panel :-(

Is this going to be fixed?
Did I find bugs?
Is it a matter of time before new applets will be ported?
Or have I overlooked things?
What about a better way to migrate for the user?
What can you advise me?
(ARgh, I don't want to downgrade!!)

Thanks in advance for any response... and please Cc: to my personal mail 
address.

Best regards,

a quite frustrated

We have now 2 PC (one Pentium 120 and one Pentium MMX) working 24/7
without problems. Time ago we had a Pentium 100 as our web, file server
and used as workstation working for 5 years without important problems.
Only had to change CPU fan. It had a SCSI disk with an adaptec AHA-1540,
but it was a normal PC.

Hello Dave,

where did you read to do a "touch /forcefsck"? In my opinion
this command only creates a file called "forcefsck" in the root
directory if not already there. Not more or less.
I can only guess that by issuing this command, you turn off
further file system checks at boot. But I can not believe that
this works that way (see point 4) below).

In the past I also converted from ext2 to ext3 by doing the
following:

1) Compile ext3 support into your kernel
2) tune2fs -j /dev/hda2
3) Modify your /etc/fstab to use ext3
4) Deactivate all further checks as they are no longer needed:
   tune2fs -c 0 -i 0 /dev/hda2


So I think that your "touch /forcefsck" should do what I have
done in point 4). 



Greetings,
Manuel.

Yes, you are right. Some time ago I used another script based on rsync (that I 
think it's available in stable) but people that manages the network where I 
work used to close as many ports as possible, and of course they closed rsync 
ports. So, now I use debmirror based script. But I use testing or unstable

I'm configuring a local mirror in my laptop in order to install Debian in

from the mirror.

Be careful, each command MUST not be split unles you use \ character at the

RE: Xfree 4.2.0 and KDM

I had done a "dpkg --get-selections", and I got the list of all packages

and used dselect to install and configure packages.
I don't know if there is an easier way to do this, that was what I did.

X 4.2 problem

[José Manuel Pérez]

Hi all.
I've recently installed unofficial Debian X 4.2 packages and now i can't run 
OpenOffice. It gives the following error:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ openoffice
running openoffice setup...
I18N: X Window System doesn't support locale "spanish"
I18N: X Window System doesn't support locale "C"
/usr/bin/openoffice: line 27: 11555 Violación de segmento   
/usr/lib/openoffice/program/setup -R:/etc/openoffice/autoresponse.conf
setup failed.. abort

I've tried both OpenOffice Debian package and tarball.

Kdm breaks too.

I'm using testing and kernel 2.4.18.
Somebody knows what can cause this?

Thanks and best regards,

Woody is quite tolerable, now I've got to computers upgraded to woody with no 
problems. And the computer I use everyday has sid (unstable) and have no 
problems by now.

I've got same problem but couldn't solve it. I thought that
it probably was a problem with my mail server that cuts mail
headers, but it seems to be kmail/klibs related.

Some help would be appreciated.

Problem with apt-get dist-upgrade: kernel is removed

[Manuel Bilderbeek]

Hello,

As I do almost everyday, I upgraded my Woody Debian system with
apt-get update
apt-get dist-upgrade

However, this time I got a very strange result:
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
Calculating Upgrade... Done
The following packages will be REMOVED:
  cpio debhelper dpkg-dev initrd-tools kernel-image-2.4.12-686
  kernel-image-2.4.14-686 kernel-package nvidia-glx-src nvidia-kernel-src
The following packages have been kept back
  libsmpeg0 xmps xmps-common
29 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 9 to remove and 3  not upgraded.
Need to get 0B/9001kB of archives. After unpacking 44.7MB will be freed.

However, I am running kernel 2.4.12-686! So I can't have it removed...

I tried to fix it, by installing 2.4.14 kernel image too, but as can be 
seen above, it also wants to remove *that* kernel... And it also removes 
a lot of other debian stuff and also my nvidia video drivers...


I guess somewhere there is a wrong dependency...!?

I've just compiled kernel 2.4.11 in both woody and potato without
any problem. Now, woody is running this kernel and it works ok.

Perhaps you've got some problem with gcc version or some library.
I've got gcc 2.95.4 on woody and 2.95.2 on potato.

Problem apache+mod_rewrite

[Jose Manuel Perez]

Hi all.
We are having some problems with Apache 1.3.19-1 and mod_rewrite.
Using rewritemap rule we've got following error message in log file:
[Thu Oct  4 12:38:23 2001] [error] [client 192.168.200.101] (37)No locks 
available: mod_rewrite: failed to lock file descriptor
Aparently server is serving web pages normally. We've changed
apache max processes but error persists.
We use kernel 2.4.9.

Someone knows something about this error?

Thanks in advance,

Thanks for your answer. I've finally purged the package
modifying postremoval script (lgtoclnt.postrm) at: /var/lib/dpkg/info/
to correct the error, well not at all, I've comented out the whole
script, but I don't mind because doing dpkg --purge  worked ok.

Purging deb

[Jose Manuel Perez]

Hi all.
I've installed a package in my Potato but it crashed during
installation and I'd like to uninstall it. I've tried
dpkg --purge , with and without --force-??? option, but
I've not found the way to remove it. Allways I've got:

siul04:~# dpkg --purge lgtoclnt
(Leyendo la base de datos ... [reading database ...]
44862 ficheros y directorios instalados actualmente.) [4862 files and 
directories installed]
Desinstalando lgtoclnt ... [Deinstalling lgtoclnt ...]
rmdir: número de argumentos insuficiente [rmdir: insuficient number of 
arguments ]
Pruebe `rmdir --help' para más información. [Try ?? for more information]
dpkg: error al procesar lgtoclnt (--purge): [dpkg: error processing ...]
 el subproceso post-removal script devolvió el código de salida de error 1
[subprocess post-removal script returns error code 1]
Se encontraron errores al procesar: [errors where found procesing:]
 lgtoclnt

I have to say that this package was originally a rpm, and
I've converted it to deb. Someone knows how to remove that
package.

Thanks in advance,
