Well my advice to you would be to try to find some guy with the necessary knowledge, who is willing to maintain it. Please note that most people who read this mailingliste are just regular users like you and me, so it might not be the best place to look. > I looked for it, and I wonderd about Debian/stable still has version 1.11 > of usermin, and webmin still 1.180, while the officialversions are 1.23 for > usermin and 1.29 for webmin. So, the Debian packages seem to me quite old. This is normal. Once a Debian distribution is released as 'stable', it stops getting updates, except when it is necessary because of security issues. Since webmin is gone from unstable and testing, it won't even be in the next 'stable' Debian, so things are bound to get even worse. (Depending on how you look at it.. Apparently only few people seems to be missing it.. I can't really count myself as one of those, honestly..) > O.k., I can download them directly from the homepage, and so this is no > problem for me !

All I can say is, try to find a maintainer who is willing to do the work. It won't be easy, let me tell you, since it's a big job, and there seems to be so little demand for the packages. > Maybe someone with better knowledge than me will adept the packages, this > would be really nice ! > > > I had a discussion on slashdot with one of the maintainers of virtualmin > > a while back, and they seem to be working on debian compliance and are > > seeking testers and bugreports. > > Well, I like to test it and think, other people would like to do it, too. Let me see if I can put some structure into this task. Before it can go back into Debian, the following is needed. * The packages need to be 'ready' first. That means they have to do things 'the debian way' and not mess up the configuration files of other debian packages. This is the biggest job to accomplish. It has to happen before a new debian package can even be considered, as I understand it. The reason it got thrown out last time was that it didn't do things right, and the last maintainer didn't have the time or inclination to fix it. So someone has to take on the responsibility to test the raw system, and report bugs and if possible supply patches. This someone has to have some insight into how stuff are supposed to work in debian, so it's not a job for a newbie, to be blunt. * Once all this is in place and the stuff behaves properly, then it can be considered for debian. And then comes the difficult task of finding someone who is willing to maintain it. These are both big jobs, and it's the reason why I think chances are slim to none at seeing a debian package of webmin in the foreseable future. Sorry dude.. :) It's not that I don't think it would be very useful to have webmin in debian, but there are just so many stumble blocks for it to happen, that it's not really realistic, IMHO.

At start it looks in its configfile, and tries to set the settings and initialising the scenery. IMO you MUST have an opengl-driver working ! Otherwise it will crash. Why does the nvidia-driver not work ? It should, if you use the Debian packages and compile the nvidia-kernel-module on your own, and, additionally install the package nvidia-glx. Good luck !

Re: Problem with Alsa
Hi One suggestion. I just came to think of that I did get a warning message during an upgrade some days ago. There is said that I should read /usr/share/doc/sysvinit/NEWS.Debian.gz The messages below are starting to look like the suggestions there. I followed the suggestions and haven't had any of the problems mentioned on the list. I might be wrong but it is anyway a lovely reading before going to sleep:) /Gudjon Þann Sunnudagur 17 september 2006 19:36 skrifaði Sylvain Archenault: > I did approximately the same things for reinstalling udev.

Flightgear crashes (the program, not the pilot)
Flightgear crashes on startup on my system. I'm running 2.6.16-2-amd64-k8-smp generic kernel. My system: An Asus A8N32-SLI Deluxe motherboard with AMD Athlon 4800 dual core cpu, with 4 MB of Corsair TwinX ram sticks. I have an older GeForce4 MX 420 graphics board with 64 MB ram. I have updated my bios to version 1303. I'm running Debian unstable, with latest version of Flightgear and all required packages. I'm NOT running nvidia drivers because they cause my system to hang. I'm also running the VESA driver, for the same reason. I've attached the error message that Flightgear generates on startup. Is this error indicative of the video driver I'm using? Thanks for any help.

Re: Problem with Alsa
Hi, Thanks for the advice. I have purged my udev and its dependences and reinstalled them. After some problems with the reinstallation of udev, all works well. No problems for the automount of my usbkey... did you have installed gnome-volume-manager or something like that with hal package ? About the problem of reinstalling udev, I have had to do the following : - purge udev and its dependances - reboot - reinstall all (many apt/dpkg errors) - add link in startup sysinit update-rc.d -f udev start 03 S . update-rc.d -f udev-mtab start 36 S . - reboot - make a : dpkg -a --configue - reboot Johann Heymes.

[D-I] mass kernel udeb update and preparations for RC1
(Reply-to set to debian-boot; please only add relevant port if needed.) Dear (d-i) porters, First mass upload of kernel udebs = Today I have uploaded kernel udeb updates to 2.6.17-9 _for all arches_. This is the first time using the 'massbuild' [1] script I wrote recently. Effectively this means that d-i porters won't really have to worry anymore about updating kernel udebs after uploads by the kernel team. Only if the kernel major/minor changes will I request porters to do the upload themselves. For stable releases (including ABI changes) I intend to do these mass builds and do the uploads myself. Hopefully this will help the speed with which kernel udebs are updated and allow you all to spend more time testing d-i ;-) Of course porters are still responsible for maintaining which modules will be included for each arch/flavor. If you have changes between kernel major/minor releases you can either commit them and upload, or commit them as UNRELEASED and they will be automatically included in the next mass build. The massbuild script can be used for single-arch builds too. Its main advantage is that kernel images don't need to be installed and the certainty that the correct kernel version will be used. Feel free to contact me to help you get started. Some comments on today's upload: - I have used the last released version of kernel-wedge and will normally do that in the future too - I have not really checked or tested the udebs [2], so there could be some surprises; please be alert for them - m68k: I had to update the dependencies from kernel-image to linux-image The road to RC1 === We are slowly moving towards RC1. I plan to post an initial planning later this week. As we get closer to Etch, testing the installer for all arches gets to be more important. Any time you can spend on that is very much appreciated. There are some issues that need attention: * type of initrd used Some arches have already switched to using initramfs for d-i initrds, other arches are still using cramfs or ext2. Please check if a change could/should be made for your architecture. * 2.4 support now officially dropped Starting with RC1 d-i will no longer support 2.4 based installations. All arches have been switched now and some cleanup has been started; more cleanup is expected and this may cause unexpected breakage. * support for non-devfs device names Colin Watson has committed a series of changes to make d-i support non-devfs device names. We will be slowly moving away from using devfs names, but the most intrusive work will be postponed until after Etch. Please check for unexpected breakage though. * partman-auto using LVM and crypto partman-auto-lvm now has been available for some time, but is still not available for all arches. LVM support is a prerequisite for partman-auto-crypto support which will be uploaded soon. Note: swap on LVM should be possible now and is even required for partman-auto-crypto. If you would like to add support for it, please see [3]. Feel free to contact me or David Härdeman (Alphix) for help. * mips: keyboard issues We've had a report about a dead keyboard on installation (#382983). This needs to be investigated. * powerpc: oldworld boot problems with recent kernels If there are other architecture specific issues that we should be aware of, please let me know. Cheers, FJP [1] http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/d-i/people/fjp/massbuild?op=file&rev=0&sc=0 [2] The script does have a number of sanity checks though.

The ACPI options are set as follows: # ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface) Support CONFIG_ACPI=y CONFIG_ACPI_BOOT=y CONFIG_ACPI_INTERPRETER=y # CONFIG_ACPI_SLEEP is not set CONFIG_ACPI_AC=m CONFIG_ACPI_BATTERY=m CONFIG_ACPI_BUTTON=m CONFIG_ACPI_FAN=m CONFIG_ACPI_PROCESSOR=m CONFIG_ACPI_THERMAL=m CONFIG_ACPI_ASUS=m CONFIG_ACPI_TOSHIBA=m # CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUG is not set CONFIG_ACPI_BUS=y CONFIG_ACPI_EC=y CONFIG_ACPI_POWER=y CONFIG_ACPI_PCI=y CONFIG_ACPI_SYSTEM=y # CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_ACPI is not set The CONFIG_ACPI_SLEEP option is irrelevent, as we are not trying to send the system to sleep. ACPI is a standard. The kernel isn't supposed to vary from board to board. If the hardware doesnt poweroff when its told to, then its the fault of the hardware. It's up to the manufacturer to program their bios so their board shuts down properly. Perhaps we should try to find a tyan s2875 that actually works properly with multiple versions of linux. If there are none, then we know its the fault of the board design. Peter -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROT
Some very experimental packages
Hi I have been making some packages because of need and curiousity and I am keeping them on my private server: deb http://mve035.mc2.chalmers.se/~gudjon/debian/amd64/ ./ The following packages can be found kdenlive(The mlt library needs to be compiled with the --disable-motion_est option so some functionality is lost but everything else seems to work). I will suggest to Marillat that he adds the amd64 to the list of supported platform. (Unless you prove me wrong:) gnuplot 4.1 (There is much to much new useful function to wait for that program) wxmaxima(This package is recompiled and it can even factorise 10!. Refer to older mails on the list) You need to install maxima and wxmaxima to try it out. openoffice.org 2.0.4 (More for fun but please use it and report bugs where they shall go to) ngspice and easyspice (These have been quite useful to me) If you find it interesting, please remember that you are using it at your own risk. I will spend more time on it during Christmas. (Now I need to do some real work). Regards Gudjon -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

Re: Problem with Alsa
Actually, I purge udev (remove all rule files in /etc/udev/) and then reinstall it. At reboot, the sound card works. Remain the problem of automount. If I plug a usbkey at boot time, it is mounted. But if I plug it after, it is not mounted. Nevertheless, I can mount it by hand. I'll check that. Regards. Sylvain Archenault wrote: > Hi johann, > > Do you also have problems with usb device ?

Re: Problem with Alsa
Hi johann, Do you also have problems with usb device ? My usb keys, ipod doesn't mount automatically anymore. Actually the /dev/sdc devices are not created. I suspect a problem with udev, I'm looking into it. Regards.

Re: Problem with Alsa
Hi I have been pretty happy with alsa for the last few years. It even configured an ISA-PnP card without problems (or the only problem was my intervention in the process:) There is one problem with alsa (or udev) and that is that if my webcamera is connected to the USB port then it becomes the original sound system and I cannot use the other system. I have tried this on two computers but just decided to plug out my webcamera at boot time. Don't think it is a solution to the problems below but hope it helps. /Gudjon Þann Laugardagur 16 september 2006 21:16 skrifaði Bibiche: > Hi, > > I have some problems with alsa too. > In fact, it's with the /dev devices like dsp, mixer, ... that I have a > problem.
