I guess you are missing your i386 ld.so, which is /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (a link to /lib/i486-linux/ld-2.3.2.so). You probably can't run any other i386 program either.

Must've been a false alarm due to running ldd on a statically-linked binary. grub runs before Linux, it should not depend on anything. No, that's wrong. /sbin/grub runs in user-space and requires the kernel, with 32-bit support. The grub boot loader, which is /boot/grub/*, runs before linux.

Re: installing sarge with USB keyboard
* Sebastian Haase [EMAIL PROTECTED] [2006-02-19 01:39]: I just got a new Pentium D Dell PC and was very surprised when it didn't respond on the first (choose language) screen of debian-installer... It took me a while, but then I realized: The PC was using a USB keyboard ! Strange, installation on my em64t PC worked fine with a USB keyboard. Try enabling 'Legacy USB support' (or similar) in the BIOS, this will make the machine emulate a PS/2 keyboard in place of the USB one. You can switch it back after installation. Also I'm anticipating that there will be problems with the Intel 1000(?) gigabit network card ? Should be fine, sarge has the e1000 driver.

Re: alternative to linuxant?
Giulio, As far as I know, there is no alternative. But you'd better check that up at http://www.linmodems.org/ and http://start.at/modem/ And if remember correctly, linuxant offers a free version with speed limited to 14400.

xorg horribly slower after upgrade to 6.9
Hi all, Since upgrading from xorg 6.8.x to 6.9 I don't have any hw acceleration anymore (actually, if I had any). Moving anything around the screen or scrolling is horribly slow right now, and I can't get back to 6.8 (I deleted the corresponding .deb files I had) Display hw is ATI Radeon 9550 (r350) . Up to now (6.8.x) this was nothing like the fastest, but quite acceptable for development. Now (with xorg 6.9) it's way to slow. Reading X log files /var/log/Xorg.0.log, I get messages of DRI successfully started, and no clear error messages related to DRI. Although I do get this warning : (WW) RADEON(0): Enabling DRM support *** Direct rendering support is highly experimental for Radeon 9500 *** and newer cards. The 3d mesa driver is not provided in this tree. *** A very experimental (and incomplete) version is available from Mesa CVS. *** Additional information can be found on http://r300.sourceforge.net *** This message has been last modified on 2005-08-07. But this should also have been the case with xorg 6.8.x, no ? Beside it is followed by these messages : drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card0 drmOpenDevice: open result is 8, (OK) drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card0 drmOpenDevice: open result is 8, (OK) drmOpenByBusid: Searching for BusID pci::01:00.0 drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card0 drmOpenDevice: open result is 8, (OK) drmOpenByBusid: drmOpenMinor returns 8 drmOpenByBusid: drmGetBusid reports pci::01:00.0 (II) RADEON(0): [drm] DRM interface version 1.2 (II) RADEON(0): [drm] created radeon driver at busid pci::01:00.0 (II) RADEON(0): [drm] added 8192 byte SAREA at 0x10001000 (II) RADEON(0): [drm] mapped SAREA 0x10001000 to 0x2aaab52b7000 (II) RADEON(0): [drm] framebuffer handle = 0xe800 (II) RADEON(0): [drm] added 1 reserved context for kernel Unfortunately lower down I get : (II) RADEON(0): Render acceleration unsupported on Radeon 9500/9700 and newer. (II) RADEON(0): Render acceleration disabled But, again, this should also have been the case with xorg 6.8.x. as well. and this is followed by : (II) RADEON(0): Using XFree86 Acceleration Architecture (XAA) Screen to screen bit blits Solid filled rectangles 8x8 mono pattern filled rectangles Indirect CPU to Screen color expansion Solid Lines Scanline Image Writes Offscreen Pixmaps Setting up tile and stipple cache: 32 128x128 slots 32 256x256 slots 16 512x512 slots (II) RADEON(0): Acceleration enabled and : (II) RADEON(0): [drm] installed DRM signal handler (II) RADEON(0): [DRI] installation complete (II) RADEON(0): [drm] Added 32 65536 byte vertex/indirect buffers (II) RADEON(0): [drm] Mapped 32 vertex/indirect buffers (II) RADEON(0): [drm] dma control initialised, using IRQ 177 (II) RADEON(0): [drm] Initialised kernel GART heap manager, 5111808 (II) RADEON(0): Direct rendering enabled So as far as I could see, whatever DRM I must have had with xorg 6.8.x is still there. Yet xorg 6.9 is still horribly slow ! Now trying out glxgear I could indeed see only a few frames per second (about 260) !! I don't have any numbers anymore for 6.8.x, but the frames per sec were never this bad. Actually I seem to remember I could not follow the gears with my eyes last time I looked. checking out glxinfo with LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose :~$ glxinfo name of display: :0.0 libGL: XF86DRIGetClientDriverName: 4.0.3 r300 (screen 0) libGL: OpenDriver: trying /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri/r300_dri.so libGL error: dlopen /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri/r300_dri.so failed (/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri/r300_dri.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory) libGL error: unable to find driver: r300_dri.so display: :0 screen: 0 direct rendering: No ... snip, snip ... I thought : Aha ! r300_dri.so ? Debian does not seem to provide it in any package, although there is a radeon_dri.so and a r200_dri.so (which don't seem to work for me). There are many fleeting references to r300_dri.so in many places (google and others) however no clear pointer to where it can be found. Anybody knows more about this file ? Do I need it for KDE ? Does anybody knows any other reason why after upgrading to 6.9 xorg it lost the little hw acceleration it had ? This is very annoying as I don't want to go to ati's proprietary drivers.
