gtkspell is not (and was never, AFAIK) installed. But Firefox
is affected by this, too, e.g. in the file browser.

I believe that the current version, while working on 64bit architectures
is really 32-bit in practice (i.e. it uses ints as indexes, therefore
limiting data structures to 2GB).  Clinton Chee at the UNSW HPC group
has patches he's trying to get into the main tree.  I'm not sure of the
status of this, but I do know he has the test-suite passing on an SGI
Altix.  More information here: http://tinyurl.com/amsrh

Don't use it.  sshd(8) lets you deny and allow users via
/etc/ssh/sshd_config.

Reading the daemon documentation before doing something like this is
always good idea.

What you are experiencing sounds like a configuration problem to me.
You presumably have multiple auth mechanisms listed besides UsePam, and
eventually one succeeds, although the PAM one failed.

While setting up PAM in conjunction with SSH I included the following

Nothing against you either! I just wanted to try and explain that it's
more difficult to deal with things that are only documented on a mailing
list than people seem to realize. 

I wish there were a way I could help keep the project documentation more
up to date. I could go update it with this information myself right now.
I don't know how many pure64 users there are, but maybe even I won't be
the last person to ask this?

Does your user have permission to access DRI?

Depending on the mode established in the DRI section of your
XF86Config-4, you might need to add the user to a certain group. If it's
0666, then everybody can use DRI and you shouldn't worry about this.

No, I have the latest updates of debian sid and quake3 does not work

We tweaked it about 4 month ago to get an unpached libc6 and
base-files into sid amd64 and sarge amd64. Has nothing to do with the
move.

hehe, sorry to do this to you, but thats also in the ML. You end up
without ld where it should be and no dynamic binary starts anymore.
Keep a boot cd ready if you are unsure.

David, the problem is that this question was answered five to ten times
in the last two weeks only; in fact, Goswin was the most patient of all
and always gave an answer in-line instead of sending the poster to read

They all had the same problem as you, and they all received a similar
answer. It won't break if you follow the instructions in the previous

Update base-files to 3.1.2-0.0.1, or downgrade it to 3.1.2. Except for
the version number, they are identical; 3.1.2 has just been rebuilt as
3.1.2-0.0.1 to have a newer version number than 3.1.2-0.0.0.3.pure64.

After you have installed the appropriate base-files version, just
perform an upgrade as usual. This should (possibly among other things)
update libc6 to 2.3.2.ds1-21.

I know I'm ignorant and I screwed up, that much is obvious. But can I at
least tell you what this looked like from my perspective? 

Is there any info on this move, this problem, anywhere other than this
mailing list? 

I wasn't able to find it. 

Your HOWTO isn't up to date. Your debian.org port page had some current
info but nothing about this problem. 

Mailing lists are a disorganized, unreliable way to convey information. 

I've been on the list for a while, but I'm not an expert like you and I
don't always understand everything or its relevance. 

I also re-read the archives before I asked my question, and I said so
("I saw some traffic on the list that looked similar"). Searching on
libc gives a lot of hits that don't all immediately seem clear.

http://lists.debian.org/debian-amd64/2005/05/msg00151.html

This seems similar, but not quite the same problem. This looks closer:

http://lists.debian.org/debian-amd64/2005/04/msg00238.html
http://lists.debian.org/debian-amd64/2005/04/msg00242.html

OK, I'm guessing you guys tweaked the version numbering during the move?
So I think I need to force myself to a different version of base-files
and libc. 

Hey, I wonder what will happen if I'm wrong and I mess this up?

Why don't I ask, just to be sure. 

And for this, I get the response above. 

You probably think I don't know what it's like to be in your shoes and
do a lot of work for nothing and have to answer stupid questions all the
time. You're wrong. I know what it's like. But do you know what it feels
like to try to use pure64 right now?

I recall reading recently that having gtkspell installed caused the

Some guys do "hot swap" of EEPROM from one motherboard to an other one  
when they have broken the BIOS in such a way they can't flash it back.

I've read some guys doing so from one motherbord to an other model. It  
seeems to work but you ahve to keep the motherboard powered while doing  
so and the EEPROM have to be the same model.

In your case, probably you got the answer for the question of an other  
guy...

glx for ia32 applications does not work

2005-05-09 Thread Alexander Fieroch
Hello,

I've no problems starting 64bit glx applications like glxgears, but
starting glxgears in ia32 chroot I get a "Segmentation fault".
Starting doom3 in ia32 chroot I get the following error:

[...]

The homepage of idsoftware sais:
"There are no amd64 builds planned at this time. However the 32 bit
binaries will run in a native amd64 environement."


But with native 64bit debian I get the same error.
My chroot is a complete debian 32 bit system where I've got no problems.

I have installed nvidia-glx, nvidia-glx-ia32 and nvidia-kernel* and I'm
running a kernel (2.6.11.7) with enabled ia32_emulation.
So what's the problem?

Thanks & regards,
Alexander

forcedeth is a driver for the nvidia MAC.  It doesn't really matter much
which PHY is connected outside the chipset to provide the actual port,
since that is mostly generic as far as the driver is concerned.

The mervall Yukon is another MAC chip (possibly with an internal PHY, I
don't know) which uses a completely different driver (sk98lin).

An ethernet port consists of a MAC, a PHY, and in the case of copper
ethernet, some magnetics and the port.  nvidia provides just the MAC,
and nothing else.  Many boards use some realtek PHY together with the
nvidia MAC to build the ethernet port.

I just wanted to say that the primary adapter I call this device is a device
like Marvell Yukon (not Yukon) but nForce has an API used to hide real
interface from OS. True adapter driver is on nvidia chipset because only
chipset sees what adapter is installed. So if you are using forcedeth then
you are really telling chipset what to do. Chipset translates your order
and tells adapter what you want. Using forcedeth you are not talking to
adapter directly but only to nForce chipset.

Yes, some are with disabled internal adapter but it is not very often
situation. And if it is then nvidia doesn't cut the adapter from chipset
but onli disables it

Include that manually and reduce further plaese. For a gcc bugreport
you should use the preprocessed files.

Also please try with g++-3.4. If that fixes it already there is
probably nothing left to do but wait.

Any architecture with 2.6 kernel and enough ram. The internal
timestamps have mikrosecond resolution while the on disk timestamps
only seconds. I think amd64 is the only arch having 2.6.x on the
buildd so far.

The right thing to do is to add a "touch doc/pinfo.info" to debian
rules or add a Build-Depends on makeinfo and NMU it.

We know what is wrong, we know a trivial way to fix it. Why should we
compromise? pinfo should be fixed or removed from sarge. I made the
bug RC so the release team should do the right thing now.

g++ compile failure

Hi everyone!

I'm trying to compile the source added below, which works on many other 
systems (32 Bit SuSE and Debian, 64Bit SuSE) but not with debian-amd64.

My current compiler says the following, but the problem has been present in 
amd64-pure64 repository since I started using debian-amd64 many month ago.

g++ -v

The piece of code I'm trying to compile is:

 code 
#include "boost/spirit/core.hpp"

using namespace boost::spirit;

char * begin;
char * end;

void test()
{
  unsigned int ui;

  parse_info<> info = boost::spirit::parse( begin, end, uint_p[assign(ui)], 
space_p );
}
 end code

Remark: That code does not make any sense but is the smallest subset of code I 
could extract that produces the failure on my system.

Any hints about what goes wrong here?

So if 64bit chips have been around since the 90s, and windows is only
going 64bit now, what were they doing?  Oh you mean those 64bit chips
had 64bit software since they were alpha and sparc and ran true64,
linux, solaris and whatever other 64bit unix they wanted.  

Seems pretty irrelevant when 64bit chips came out, unless it is one you
would want to run windows on (I guess they never got 64bit windows on
the alpha did they).  What matters is when the 64bit x86 came out, which
is still a while ago.  I guess windows isn't written as cleanly (type
wise) as it ought to have been. :)

I also don't believe anything video related will run 1000 times faster
on 64bit than 32bit.

Nor do I believe 64bit makes things more secure than 32bit, unless
having to cleanup all the type sizes meant they had to fix their code.

Mozart for amd64

2005-05-09 Thread Kevin Glynn


Hi,

I am the maintainer of the Mozart/Oz package.

   http://packages.debian.org/unstable/devel/mozart

I am also one of the upstream developers.  This software doesn't
currently build on any of the 64 bit architectures and making it do so
will, I think, be a bit hairy and quite a bit of work.  Unfortunately,
I don't have access to any shiny 64 bit hardware.  Can anyone offer me
an account a debian amd64 environment so that I can investigate this
further? I don't know how long this will take me.  Also, I am not a DD
:-(.

thanks for any help,

Kevin

forcedeth runs the network MAC built into the nvidia chipset.  It is of
no relation to the Marvell Yukon, which is a gigabit chip that is
popular as an add on chip, which certainly Asus likes to include on many
boards.

For example the A7N8X-E-DX has a 10/100 nforce network port and a
gigabit marvell yukon port.  I believe many of the K8 nforce boards are
made the same way.

The A8V-DX has just a marvell yukon, but of course that is a via chipset
so it never would have anything nvidia in the first place. :)

sk98lin will run the Yukon, and forcedeth will run the nforce chip.
Which driver you need depends entirely on which MAC the board maker
decided to use (the builtin, an add on marvell, or both if using two
ports).  Boards with PCIe seem to have trouble with the sk98lin driver
currently in the kernel for some reason when using the marvell.

The primary isn't always using the internal nforce controller.
Sometimes the nforce controller isn't enabled at all (maybe nvidia ships
chipsets without that feature at reduced cost).

You can install only a 2.6 kernel, because debian-amd64 does not support
2.4 kernels at all. The system won't even boot with a 2.4 kernel.

AMD64 support is limited in 2.4 kernels, thus there are no kernel-images
provided. Additionally, the amd64 libc6 needs a kernel supporting NPTL 
and TLS, both not available in vanilla 2.4 kernels.


Kind regards
Frederik Schueler

installing 2.6 kernel

2005-05-09 Thread Attila Kocsis
Hi,

Can I choose before (or during) the installation of 64
bit sarge whether I wanna use 2.6 or 2.4 kernel? 
If yes, when and how?

Thank you

As far as I know, one with 32bit libs installed.  It does support 64bit
kernels in version 5 (and 4.5 with update patches) as host, which
matters since vmware does use kernel modules for some of its work.

A number of people have run it on debian just fine, and I believe all
they needed was the 32bit libs installed, and to run the installer in
64bit mode (since it has to build 64bit kernel modules).

Check if all necessary devices were made in /dev/ and if you have the
right permissions e.g. if your user is in group "audio" inside the chroot,
too.

Thank you for the hint !  My system was messed up, indeed.  I fixed it
and it solved the problem.

Therefore I'm closing this bug.  The build is not finished yet (it takes
ages), but if there is another problem, I'll open another bug...

BTW, my system has this line in /etc/apt/sources.list:

deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian-amd64/debian/ experimental main contrib

but gcc-4.0 is not available.  I'm wondering which packages Andreas
Jochens is using to report all the build failures in Debian packages
with gcc-4.0.

Thanks again,

Realplayer in 32 chroot no sound

2005-05-09 Thread Tobias Krais
Hi together,
I have a 64 bit Debian installed and a 32 bit chroot for OOffice and now 
also for Realplayer. Realplayer works very well, but I do not hear any 
Sound.

I use ALSA as Soundsystem and have a snd_inte8x0 module in use. In 64 
bit everything works out well. I have a selfcompiled vanilla kernel and 
compiled 32bit Soundemulation as Module.

Do you have an hints?
Greetings, Tobias
