I'm about as absent minded as you can get. I really wish that they'd add a reply-to part to this list, b/c I almost never remember to send to the list, and not to the sender... I know it's supposed to cause major lag on the mail servers, but in my little case it'll probably far outweigh the lag created by my lack of presence of mind... 'reply to all' :P Thanks for any info you can give me! Use software raid in linux. The installer can allow yo to set it up. I don't know... I think that the nVidia nForce 3's RAID is on the contoller level, so I think it should work, but I'm not sure. i have nf4, and its just soft-raid. if i set it up in the bios, in linux it just sees two drives. with all other (scsi) raid ive used that is hardware - and ive used a lot - it will just show up as one rather large or rather fast drive. you can install, and then grub will just hang as it gets all confused. just turn off bios raid stuff all together and let linux do it. im running 2x36gb wd raptors (sata, 10k) and its as fast as ive seen short of 64bit scsi raid with uw320 15k discs. Now why would you buy 40G drives when they cost (at least around here) the same as 80G drives. 2 x 40G would cost twice the price of a single 80G. Buying a pair of 160 or 200G drives would make much more sense. Also larger drives are denser and hence faster than smaller drives, so you may actually get less performance striping two smaller drives, and the reliability goes way down since you have two points of failure instead of one. Insane setup really. likely a 40 gig at the same price as an 80 is faster, likely has 1024kb per meg and has more cache on it. that or youre being ripped. Yeah, that hit me rather suddenly in the car on the way home... However, I don't have the raw cash to buy anything over about 120Gb.

RE: can't mount raid 5 after installation
Hey Guys, I am having a similar problem and not having much luck getting it to work either. I followed through the suggestions listed previous and am not getting anywhere. This is where I am at. I did a install with the 2.6 kernel on a system with a 60 gig drive (/dev/hda) set as my root and swap. I have 4 120 gig drives set up in a RAID5 (/dev/hde, /dev/hdg, /dev/hdi, /dev/hdk). I had the same problem where I would get it set up, and it would fail on reboot. I just tried the dpgk-reconfigure mdadm, and it failed saying that it could only find hde and hdg! So I looked, Debian is seeing all the drives (/proc/ide). All of the drives are listed as being setup for RAID. The /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf have been setup as demonstrated earlier in the thread. If I try to mount the drives as individual drives, it has no problems whatsoever. Just doesn't like to see them when I set them up as RAID5. I have been going slightly insane these past few days trying to figure out why it can see all the drives but will not when I try to mount it as RAID5. I am not certain what to do next... Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. ~Stack~
amd64 + wine in chroot
Hi, i am using an ia32-chroot for starting wine. Some Windows programs are working, for example the Ultima-Online sphereServer, but if I try to run Ultima Online, I get an error message from the Ultima client.exe displaying " Out of memory There ist not enough memory to continue execution. ... " I installed the chroot to an additional partition, so I can boot into the 32-bit environment. If I do so, the Ultima client works well with wine, even if I use the same wine configuration. So I suppose, my setup of the chroot environment is invalid. I am using the following lines in my fstab to mount the partition and bind the directories I need in both (AMD64 and IA32) environments: /dev/sda7 /mnt/sda7 ext3defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 1 #x86 32 chroot /home /mnt/sda7/home nonebind0 0 /tmp/mnt/sda7/tmp nonebind0 0 /dev/mnt/sda7/dev nonebind0 0 /mnt/mnt/sda7/mnt nonebind0 0 /sys/mnt/sda7/sys nonebind0 0 /proc /mnt/sda7/proc nonebind0 0 Greetings, Christoph -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Re: GLIBC BUG still not fixed in stable package
This is precisely the reason I just went from stable to testing. It still hasn't been touched in stable - nothing really has since it was done months ago... I didn't have any problems with testing (or unstable) before, so I figured it'll be fine to run it anyhow. But yes, I was quite disappointed that something like this has not been pushed through.

Make sure you install grub to the MBR of _both_ drives. or install the generic MBR (using install-mbr) to both drives and install grub to the boot sector of the raid device of the boot partition. I personally just install grub to both MBRs. Right now you probably have an old grub install on the other disk pointing to the wrong place. Or perhaps you are not using raid on /boot and have hence no mirror on the other drive so it contains old data.

Wrong kernel selected during boot during RAID testing
I used a sarge amd64 netinst image to configure a two-disk system with two RAID1s, one of which is a mount point for /boot and one of which is used as a physical volume for LVM. I had experimented with the sarge amd64 installer, the sid amd64 installer, and the Ubuntu amd64 installer trying to get this setup working. Eventually, once I thought I had the partitioning process figured out, I returned to sarge. So I go through the installation process from scratch once again, trying to clear out everything and rebuild my partitions. sarge chooses grub as a bootloader, which is fine with me. I reboot, everything comes up clean, and I go through base-config. Then I shut down. At this point, the server is using the default 2.6.8 amd64- generic kernel that comes with the distro. Now I remove one of the two drives while the box is cold and start the machine. When it boots, there's an error about not finding the map for the kernel and somehow it finds a 2.6.12 kernel and boots with that, but none of the modules are there because the box was built and installed with a 2.6.8 kernel. So when it comes up, it's running the wrong kernel and has no networking. Where did this kernel come from, and how can I remove it? I feel like it must be a vestige of my installer experimentation, but I don't know how to clean the drives any more thoroughly during the partitioning stage of the sarge installer. -- Thomas F.

GLIBC BUG still not fixed in stable package
Hello, I am using MYSQL 5.0.15 on debian 3.1 (sarge) AMD64. Mysql randomly hangs at INSERT commands, this was already tracked down to an glibc bug and is marked as fixed. http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=314408 A patch exists, the stable packages were not updated, either. So the problem still exists and makes mysql (and other programs) unusable on debian sarge AMD64 machines. When will the glibc version in debian be updated ? Ubuntu has already patched their glibc... Thanks Thimo Eichstädt
Shouldn't atmel-firmware v1.3-2 be in the amd64 repository?
According to http://packages.debian.org/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?keywords=atmel&searchon=names&subword=1&version=all&release=all the atmel-firmware package for testing (etch) current version is 1.3-2 for all architectures. According to my installation's synaptic (otherwise functioning perfectly keeping etch up to date) the current version in: deb http://amd64.debian.net/debian/ testing main contrib non-free is version 1.2-2, and has been for some time. The official debian uk repository has version 1.3-2. For me, this is preventing (on my AMD64 installation) the upgrade of udev from 0.070-2 to 0.071-1, because atmel-firmware 1.2-2 still has the dependency on hotplug (which the new udev replaces). which atmel-firmware 1.3-2 updates to an or dependency on hotplug or udev (>= 0.070-3). This has worked for me on my i386 machines with atmel cards. Since this seems like a repository glitch, it didn't seem to merit a bug report - but I'd be happy to post a bug if someone would suggest which package to ascribe it to - it doesn't seem within the power of the atmel-firmware maintainer to correct?

Then reboot. If that isn't the case, did you compile your kernel? Maybe you turned ide-scsi on? As of 2.6.0, noone should use ide-scsi (unless it doesn't work at all without it). Hope this helps.

Strange problem that don't allow me to mount dvd units
Hi, I have a strange problem since 2 days ago, that don't allow me to mount any DVD, in Dvd-reader and Dvd-writer. But I CAN play music from them (reader) and I can control playing with gnome-cd-player. First, my hardware. I have a Amd64 3200+ with asus a8n-e (nvidia nForce4 Ultra) motherboard, a SATA seagate HDD and 2 ide dvds drives and Toshiba reader(master first channel), and a LG dvd+-rw(master second channel). I use nvidia nforce driver (audio-nvsound, network-nvnet and graphics). When I try to mount them, this are errors (I try with different dvd's and cd's in both units and I'm sure dvd and cd disk are fine): #mount /media/dvd mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sr0, missing codepage or other error In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so #mount /media/rw mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sr7, missing codepage or other error In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so Yes, my fstab: # cat /etc/fstab # /etc/fstab: static file system information. # # proc/proc procdefaults0 0 /dev/sda3 / jfs defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 1 /dev/sda2 noneswapsw 0 0 /dev/sr0/media/dvd iso9660 ro,user,noauto 0 0 /dev/sr7/media/rw iso9660 rw,user,noauto 0 0 /dev/fd0/media/floppy0 autorw,user,noauto 0 0 I bought this hardware lask week and I never see /dev/srx devices before.

re: Touchpad synaptics with Xorg on Aspire 5020
Hi, I just have an Acer Aspire 1520, but this is almost the same hardware as yours. So, try my xorg.conf. It works with the sysnaptics-driver out of the debian-repository.

Touchpad synaptics with Xorg on Aspire 5020: ButtonPress ignored
Hi, I have recently installed a Debian/amd64 Linux on an Acer Aspire 5020. Everything went more or less smootly, only the touchpad is not working properly. It is recognised as: Synaptics Touchpad, model: 1, fw: 6.2, id: 0x12a0b1, caps=0xa04713/0x204000 after loading the psmouse module, and works under X (xorg) except for buttons 1 and 3. Pressing them usually does not generate a ButtonPress event (checked with xev). Instead it is generated when the button is released, and the ButtonRelease is when the button is released for the second time or moved. This ONLY happens with buttons 1 and 3, while the rest of the buttons (the 4 scroll buttons) work fine, as does tapping with 1, 2 or 3 fingers and scrolling, and the pressing buttons 1 and 3 SIMULTANEOUSLY to emulate button 2. This happens only when the mouse is configured as a synaptics touchpad. If I configure it as a regular mouse, the buttons work fine, but tapping and scrolling stop working. I wonder if this is a known problem with synaptics touchpads, or with this model of touchpad. I formerly owned another laptop with a synaptics touchpad and it worked fine. Any help will be welcome. Even the possibility of switching buttons 1 <-> 6 and 3 <-> 7 should do the thing, as these do work well.
