ASUS A8N-SLI Motherboard: comments?

2006-03-29 Thread Hendrik Tews
Dear all,

does anybody have experiences with the ASUS A8N-SLI Motherboard
or its Deluxe variant? Does Debian run out of the box on it?

What motherboards do people use or recomment for an AMD dual core
Athlon (Athlon 64 X2)? 

Thanks in advance,

Hendrik Tews

Re: Segfaults as non-root user

2005-10-19 Thread Hendrik Tews
Hi,

I also see the same problems that have been reported in the
Segfaults as non-root user thread in September
(http://lists.debian.org/debian-amd64/2005/09/msg00508.html).

For instance with dpkg-parsechangelog, it crashes with

  dpkg-parsechangelog: failure: tail of debian/changelog died from signal 11

in /var/log/messages I find:

Oct 19 14:55:01 ithif59 kernel: dpkg-parsechang[6180]: segfault at 
00f0 rip 002a9623ae3b rsp 007fb1c0 error 4

As super-user, dpkg-parsechangelog runs fine.

I am running a self-compiled 2.6.8 kernel on Tyan Thunder K8S Pro
board with two opteron processors.

I followed the pointers in the reply from Jochen Sprickerhof.
However, I could not extract any useful information. Further, the
segfaults that I see are reproducable.

Are there any suggestions or workarounds?

Bye,

Hendrik Tews

dvdrip problem

2005-05-31 Thread Hendrik Tews
Hi,

when I start dvdrip it tells me that the mandatory tools
transcode and ImageMagick are missing. However, I have

  ii  dvdrip 0.52.5-0.0 perl front end for transcode
  ii  transcode  0.6.14-0.5 Utility to encode raw video/audio streams
  ii  imagemagick6.0.6.2-2.4Image manipulation programs

On stderr I see 

  sh: error while loading shared libraries: libdl.so.2: cannot open shared 
object file: No such file or directory

Is this a known problem? Are there any solytions?

I have a mixed installation (with APT::Default-Release
testing;). So maybe the error is caused by incompatible
packages from testing and unstable. I append my sources.list
below. I also append all the relevant package versions.

Bye,

Hendrik

Applied to transcode the output is similar.

maybe it is accessing my ia32 chroot. With strace, I see for one

Antoine Labour [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes:

   I tried some basic debugging but I'm not a perl guru. It looks like for
   some reason the run-time linker doesn't want to load the base shared
   libraries: running with strace -f shows the following.
   
strace -v shows that dvdrip sets LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.2.5, which is
to blame for all. This comes from line 616 in
/usr/share/perl5/Video/DVDRip/Config.pm: 

sub init_nptl_bug_workaround {
my $self = shift;

if ( $self-get_value(workaround_nptl_bugs) ) {
$ENV{LD_ASSUME_KERNEL} = 2.2.5;
} else {
delete $ENV{LD_ASSUME_KERNEL};
}

1;
}

So you simply have to disable the Workaround transcode NPTL
bugs switch in the preferences, as explained in the 2005/05/17
entry on http://www.exit1.org/dvdrip.

debsig: Origin Signature check failed

2004-07-21 Thread Hendrik Tews
Hi,

I am trying to install amd64 into a chroot. base-config failed at
some state because of a missing /proc filesystem. After fixing
that I run base-config again, but it did not install any
packages. Then I tried tried tasksel and dselect. 

Now dselect gives me lots of errors like 

dpkg: error processing 
/var/cache/apt/archives/mtr-tiny_0.58-1.0.0.1.pure64_amd64.deb (--unpack):

Authenticating /var/cache/apt/archives/mutt_1.5.6-20040523+2_amd64.deb ...
debsig: Origin Signature check failed. This deb might not be signed.

Whats wrong here?
