monolithic Installation Report
Installation Report (resending) Hello Everybody- I am sending email from a fresh sid install from pure64 using the 18 Feb 2005 sid-amd64-monolithic.iso installer. This install was my first to complete using any monolithic image. The base installation was halted twice when my DSL modem crashed and needed to be reset. Fortunately, I went back to the menu and the installer now resumed the install instead of starting over. The modem crashed at 14% and 17% and then the installer went to completion. The netcfg broadcast address was correct during the entire installation. There are never any crashes except when using D-I. The broadcast address must be unrelated to the crashes. Here is the ifconfig after the first crash of the DSL modem. eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:11:2F:E0:3A:27 inet addr:192.168.2.64 Bcast:192.168.2.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:17727 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:11146 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:26370714 (25.1 MiB) TX bytes:798070 (779.3 KiB) Interrupt:17 Memory:fba0-0 Here is the current ifconfig after finishing installation and login: eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:11:2F:E0:3A:27 inet addr:192.168.2.64 Bcast:192.168.2.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:44415 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:28913 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:66897852 (63.7 MiB) TX bytes:2077083 (1.9 MiB) Interrupt:17 Memory:fba0-0 loLink encap:Local Loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1 RX packets:8 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:8 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:560 (560.0 b) TX bytes:560 (560.0 b) The CDROM ejected and I rebooted using my custom kernel and the network is fine.

sarge Installation Report
Hello Everybody- This is a fresh installation of sarge using the sarge-amd64-netinst.iso of 20 Feb 05. My hardware is AMD64 with ASUS A8V Deluxe Pro and VIA sata+ide controllers. Here is my sources.list used for this installation: #deb file:///cdrom/ sarge main deb http://debian-amd64.alioth.debian.org/debian-pure64 testing main contrib non-free The installation was fast and effective for my hardware. I made an ext3 filesystem and continued without grub and without any bootloader. Most people would use grub. The installation proceeded easily through ejecting the CDROM and reboot. I rebooted using my custom 2.6.10 kernel using loadlin instead of the dist kernel. The installation was completed without difficulty. I skipped the selections because of my familiarity with dselect instead of aptitude and did not choose any specialty. I started dselect and chose the 2.6.8-kernel-source with the ncurses5-dev,kernel-package and bzip2 packages to build my kernel. I used make menuconfig and mounted my sid partition to copy my current config for the new unified kernel without having any modules. The new kernel has already finished compiling and packaged into a deb a little while ago. I now have a legal sarge installation! I didn't test everything. Everything I used worked. :-) [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: anybody help me? dependency problem: no way back???
You can try updating xmms-kd3 as well, or removing it and installing it at a later time. To remove it in the same command you use to upgrade libc you can add xmms-kd3- (no quotes) to the apt-get install command-line. Hope it helps.

Re: K3b - various troubles
I also have problems with k3b; it doesn't work at all for me. When I open it up, as either root or a normal user, the interface screen appears. But when I move the mouse to any of the options, such as New Data CD (or any of the others), nothing happens when I click. The mouse, and keyboard, have no effect on anything in the screen; it is completely unresponsive. I've tried running k3bset, but that doesn't help. I do find various messages on the terminal. Sometimes I only get: k3b: WARNING: KGenericFactory: instance requested but no instance name or about data passed to the constructor! Other times I get the following: QPixmap: Cannot create a QPixmap when no GUI is being used QPixmap: Cannot create a QPixmap when no GUI is being used QPixmap: Cannot create a QPixmap when no GUI is being used kbuildsycoca running... Reusing existing ksycoca kbuildsycoca: WARNING: 'OpenOffice.org1.1/math.desktop' specifies undefined mimetype/servicetype 'application/vnd.sun.xml.writer.math' (Lines similar to this last line go on for a very long time) I get the above messages also when trying to run k3bsetup.

Hallo Alessandro, does this occur when starting from root login too? The message 'Alarm clock' might be a warning from cdrecord. It stops working when the free license timed out, or when you try to start an alpha version that is older than one year. Which version of cdrecord do you use? I tried cdrecord-proDVD_2.01-pre_x86_64 but that gave the above message (Der Wecker klingelt when started with german locale. I then started cdrecord-proDVD_2.01.01_i686 in a chroot environment, which works fine. The free license (environment variable, set in cdrecord-wrapper.sh) expires in March 2005, then you have to download the new version of cdrecord-wrapper.sh or get the new content of that variable. 2. The dvd support is lacking some features like dvd+r simulation. Apart this, when I burn on a dvd+r (didn't try dvd-r) some files from my hdd, after the process (that doesn't report any error) I try to read it but...it's like it is blank! Obviously I can see on the surface that it ws written...is this problem just reported from anybody?

You are my savior. Thank you. Now before I continue with the upgrade I should have done two months ago, are there any other major package conflicts I should be aware of? I installed the system as sid in the first week of December. I pinned the system to testing last week, and this morning's problem was the first upgrade I tried. Here's what apt-get upgrade wants to do: The following packages will be upgraded: apache apache-common apache-utils apt-utils console-common console-data console-tools cpio dash dialog discover1 discover1-data dselect exim4 exim4-base exim4-config exim4-daemon-light gettext-base grub initrd-tools initscripts libconsole libcupsys2-gnutls10 libdb3 libdb4.2 libdbi-perl libdiscover1 libgc1 libgcc1 libkrb53 libltdl3 libmysqlclient12 libsigc++-1.2-5c102 login mailx mdadm module-init-tools modutils mysql-client mysql-common mysql-server netbase passwd perl perl-base perl-modules php4 rdate samba samba-common sysv-rc sysvinit webmin webmin-inetd webmin-samba The following packages will be DOWNGRADED: e2fslibs e2fsprogs libacl1 libattr1 libblkid1 libbz2-1.0 libcomerr2 libgcrypt11 libgnutls11 liblzo1 libreadline4 libss2 libtasn1-2 libuuid1 mount procps util-linux zlib1g 55 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 18 downgraded, 0 to remove and 1 not upgraded. Is there anything I should really becareful of or install in a specific order?

Eric Cranley [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: I thought I had already upgraded base-files and libc6 after the move. I'll give your suggestion a try. I need to reinstall base-files as well (I removed it in a spectacular display of stupidity.) I can't even login at the console right now, hence the part about using a live cd. I'll definitely write up a report on how I fixed it if I'm successful. Removing the old base-files removed the /lib64 - /lib link. That means all dynamically linked binaries fail to find the ld. /lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 /bin/ln -s /lib /lib64 of from a live CD just ln -s /lib /mountpoint/lib64. After that the system should work again and reinstalling libc6 will get the /lib64 link owned by libc6 correctly.

Re: Enigmail
Hi, is anybody using Enigmail successfully with Thunderbird? It doesn't work at all here: the keymanager doesn't work, signatures and encryption I had lots of problems too! in the first install and then with the upgrade to tb1.0. I coulnd't do nothing... but reinstalling and reinstalling again! then it worked! I also tried official mozilla extension instead of debian enigmail package, but it didn't work neither! Then I tried a couple of times reinstalling the debian package and it worked... sorry, can't help further. good luck maxxer -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Nothing I'm aware of or as catastrophic as the libc6/base-files problem that basically kills the system. Please note that I'm running sid on my main system with sarge chroots for tests and buildd though. If something doesn't work you can always go back to the sid versions (lower the pin below 1000 then). MfG Goswin PS: Sarge needs users to find any remaining problems. The more the better. So thanks for doing it. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: New netinst iso

I also added links for testing, sid, unstable to cover all bases. Just to be clear: 1. If installed from sid-amd64-netinst.iso (apt is pointed to testing) -- is it sarge or sid? 2. If I installed the system from sid-amd64-netinst.iso and want to use sarge -- do I need to downgrade libc6 or do something else? 3. What is the difference between installations from sarge and sid netinst iso. Thanks!

See: Try running 'update-pciids', it will fetch new data for you to pciids.sf.net and then you might have a little more known devices. :) Is that normal?
