The one in the archive is cruft left over from the earlier version. how many votes are against ia32-libs transitional? is wine to be removed from the amd64 repos? whit the exception of wine the important ia32-packages usualy are external ones and they use to depend from ia32-libs and are happy with the transitional... at this moment I prefer to have a previous version of ia32-apt-get (20) I also prefer the wrapper over apt-get (could it be optional in the package config?)

Kernel module inactive by default?
Hi all, I discovered a strange behaviour since some time. Maybe someone can explain it: I am running an Acer Crystal Eye Cam ( 5986:0102 Acer Crystal Eye webcam), and the cam is running fine (driver is uvcvideo). Lucview is working, and kopete shows video, when I am in the settings menu. But I am wondering, why the driver is always incative (green led is off), when I am not running any application, which it is directly accessing (like xawtv, kopete or whatever)? Whenever I am starting one of these applications, the green led is on, I get a picture/video, but when I leave it, the green led gets off. This means for me: The driver is now inactive! In the past, I could never see this behaviour, the green led was always on. Might this be the reason, why camorama, kdetv or other video-applications cannot access to /dev/videoX ? The access rights are of course set correctly, running as root gets no success either. So, is this normal? If yes, why? If not, how can I fix it? This is the output of lsmod: v4l1_compat12932 2 uvcvideo,videodev v4l2_compat_ioctl32 9296 1 videodev Thank you for any information.

It is normal for a webcam to have a light that indicates when it is transfering video data. That way you can easily tell when the camera is recording and when it is off. Helps make sure you don't have spyware recording you without your knowledge I suppose. If no application is reading data from the camera, then there is no reason for the camera to send any so it has no reason to be on, so the camera can be off and the light would then be off too. -- Len Sorensen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-amd64-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Instead doing it I could get 1 such module and install it with preinstalled module of 1GB for using not more 3 GB. But then it would have run slower, and you would have gotten probably 100 to 200MB less memory. Right now you get 3.2GB out of 4GB, using dual channel. The video is probably taking about 200MB of that leaving 3GB for you. If you only had 3GB, you would only get single channel, making the memory half the speed, and you would get 2.8GB for you and 200MB for video. I know that going from one DIMM to two DIMMs on my wifes laptop with the same chipset increased the video performance by over 50% because it went to dual channel mode as far as I can tell. It became much faster than simply adding more ram could account for. So while you may loose 800MB of your 4GB, you still get the performance benefits of the dual matched DIMMs. -- Len Sorensen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-amd64-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Is that true, ia32-apt-get will install ia32-wine, when ia32-wine depends other package, then ia32-apt-get will try to find amd64 package first then try to find ia32 package? Or?
