DVD/CD Woes
I seem to be having some problems with my optical drives, I cannot remember when the last time is that I used them successfully though. My current setup includes 2 optical drives: Lite-On LDW-811S (primary)(dvdrw) Lite-On LTR-52327S (secondary)(cdrw) Motherboard: asus K8V se deluxe If I go into the disk manager I see both my optical drives, but the DVD burner does not have a check next to 'Write DVD'. Everything else looks fine in there. The problem with the secondary drive is that it does not automount. I can burn cd's on both burners, but not dvd's on the dvd burner. The cd burner when ejected immediatly sucks the tray back in, which is very odd. I can burn from both burners in windows just fine, so it doesn't look like a hardware problem. k3b output: System --- K3b Version: 0.12.5 KDE Version: 3.4.2 QT Version: 3.3.5 Kernel: 2.6.11-9-amd64-k8 Devices --- LITE-ON DVDRW LDW-811S HS0R (/dev/hdc, ) at /media/cdrom0 [CD-R; CD-RW; CD-ROM; DVD-ROM; DVD-RW; DVD+R; DVD+RW] [DVD-ROM; DVD-R Sequential; DVD-RW Restricted Overwrite; DVD-RW Sequential; DVD+RW; DVD+R; CD-ROM; CD-R; CD-RW] [SAO; TAO; RAW; SAO/R96P; SAO/R96R; RAW/R16; RAW/R96P; RAW/R96R; Restricted Overwrite] LITE-ON LTR-52327S QS0E (/dev/hdd, ) at /media/cdrom1 [CD-R; CD-RW; CD-ROM] [CD-ROM; CD-R; CD-RW] [SAO; TAO; RAW; SAO/R96P; SAO/R96R; RAW/R16; RAW/R96P; RAW/R96R] K3b --- Size of filesystem calculated: 89492 Used versions --- mkisofs: 2.1.1a03-unofficial-iconv growisofs: 5.21 growisofs --- Executing 'builtin_dd if=/dev/fd/0 of=/dev/hdc obs=32k seek=0' /dev/hdc: "Current Write Speed" is 2.0x1385KBps. :-[ [EMAIL PROTECTED] failed with SK=5h/ASC=64h/ACQ=00h]: Input/output error :-( attempt to re-run with -dvd-compat -dvd-compat to engage DAO or apply full blanking procedure :-( write failed: Input/output error growisofs command: --- /usr/bin/growisofs -Z /dev/hdc=/dev/fd/0 -use-the-force-luke=notray -use-the-force-luke=tty -use-the-force-luke=tracksize:89492 -dvd-compat -speed=2 mkisofs --- 89492 INFO: ISO-8859-1 character encoding detected by locale settings.

Re: Debian pure-amd64 and sun-java - solved and another one
When Installing my SF version of Azureus, I had to physically point it at the sun java that I had downloaded and installed. I run 1.5 r3 for Azureus from my home dir, and black down 1.4.2 for Fx since the 1.5 does not have have a 64-bit mozilla plugin. If you check the readme it should tell you where in the config you should point Azureus at the version of java that you want to use. -John On 6/21/05, Lars Schimmer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Lars Schimmer wrote: > > Hi! > > > /home/user# java > > Error occurred during initialization of VM > > java/lang/NoClassDefFoundError: java/lang/Object > > Ok, that problem was easy to solve, I just unziped the .bin instead of > sh ...bin it... > > But now azureus won't run and jsut prints out: > # An unexpected error has been detected by HotSpot Virtual Machine: > # > # SIGSEGV (0xb) at pc=0x2ae58fe0, pid=2406, tid=46912501810336 > # > # Java VM: Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (1.5.0_03-b07 mixed mode) > # Problematic frame: > # C [libc.so.6+0x7ffe0] > # > # An error report file with more information is saved as hs_err_pid2406.log > # > # If you would like to submit a bug report, please visit: > # http://java.sun.com/webapps/bugreport/crash.jsp > # > *WTF* > > Bye & thx, > Lars > > > -- > To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] > with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Re: PATA System Slowdown
Now that I have both my PATA and SATA hard drives functional, I decided to test the speeds that I am getting from both of them and have found it surprising that my PATA is actually getting better speeds than my SATA: optimusprime:/home/john# hdparm -t /dev/sda /dev/sda: Timing buffered disk reads: 80 MB in 3.00 seconds = 26.63 MB/sec HDIO_DRIVE_CMD(null) (wait for flush complete) failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device optimusprime:/home/john# hdparm -t /dev/hda /dev/hda: Timing buffered disk reads: 140 MB in 3.01 seconds = 46.55 MB/sec Both hard drives are Western Digital 7200RPM. The SATA is a 200GB drive and the PATA is a 100GB drive. My board is an Asus K8V SE Deluxe, I am using the VIA IDE controller and the VIA SATA controller (which I read on the list is supposed to be faster than the promise SATA controller that is also on the board) -John On 6/14/05, Jeffrey Hahn <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On 6/14/05, Goswin von Brederlow <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Jeffrey Hahn <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: > > > > > On 6/14/05, John Baab <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > >> > It has loaded the via82cxxx *after* the ide_generic module.

PATA System Slowdown
I am experiencing a system slowdown when moving files between my SATA and PATA drives. CPU usage jumps to 100% and the system is basically unusable. The problem does not exist when I am only using the SATA drive, only when I use the two of them. I am running an Asus K8V Deluxe SE board, using the VIA SATA. Anyone have any ideas? -Thanks, John

Re: what are the missing ports?
I can give you the ATI driver deb package that I created. It works with the 2.6.11-9-amd68-k8 kernel image found in the apt sources. If you are using a different kernel, it more than likely will not work and you will have to create your own drivers. There are some good instructions on how to do this here: http://xoomer.virgilio.it/flavio.stanchina/debian/fglrx-installer.html The generic driver is very weak compared to the official ATI drivers, though I am still having a few problems with the ATI drivers, such as vlc and totem having random blue lines in video, I cannot get snes9x to work properly (not sure if this has to do with the ATI drivers or just with the snes9x package) and the ATI drivers do some strange stuff with xinerama displays. -John On 5/29/05, Lasse Bombien <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > I'm about to buy e Turion MT32 notebook and I will install sarge amd64 on it. > However, I'm trying to find out what packages are not ported yet.

Clock problems
Durring the install I responded yes when asked if my clock was set to GMT, when it is not. I am trying to get the clock to report the correct hour but am not having any luck. I have my time zone set correctly, and have edited /etc/default/rcS and set UTC=no, didn't help at all. I can change the time, but on startup it reverts back to the incorrect time. Every time I try to use hwclock I get this error: hwclock: Open of /dev/rtc failed, errno=2: No such file or directory. No usable clock interface found. Cannot access the Hardware Clock via any known method. Anyone have any ideas? Odly enough if I change my clock preferences to use UTC then it displays the "correct" time. -Thanks, John
Re: Installing opennoffice.org
Since the server move, these files no longer exist on alioth. As far as I know, there isn't anyone maintaining the OOo files any longer. I have searched around also and havent found any 64 bit OOo, so it looks as if we are all going to have to wait till 2.0 is released, it is said that the 2.0 source will be 64 bit compatable. -John On 5/16/05, Alexander Jede <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi > some time ago I have installed Openoffice.org with the > ia32-libs-openoffice.org like it was discribed in the mail : > > To: debian-amd64@lists.debian.org > * Subject: openoffice.org-amd64 works great! trash out 32-bit > version ;-) > * From: Max <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > * Date: Mon, 11 Apr 2005 21:30:48 -0700 > * > It works fine. > Now I wanted to install it the same way.

Re: OOo and CUPS on AMD64
At some point there was a working deb of OOo, 1.1.2 I believe, on alioth. It installed fine other than forcing a shared file issue with ia32-libs. It was actually 32bit though not 64bit, that is the closest I have seen anyone in here get. As far as I know, I haven't seen any other 64bit distros running OOo. It has been said that 2.0 should be able to build 64bit cleanly. -John On 5/10/05, A J Stiles <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Tuesday 10 May 2005 12:40, Jerome Warnier wrote: > > Is OOo (32bits, of course) supposed to work with CUPS on Debian for > > AMD64? > > Someone asked me the question, but I don't know myself and cannot test > > it. > > > > It seems that printing from OOo does not work in Ubuntu for AMD64. > > > > Someone here already tested? > > -- > > Jerome Warnier <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > BeezNest > > I think you would need to have a 32-bit cupsys-client running in the chroot > and a 64-bit cupsys server.

Fwd: snes9x
Apparently this is a problem that some of the gentoo folks are also having: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-2152137.html#2152137 Sadly there is currently a bug in zsnes also: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-2152137.html#2152137 anyone have any idea when a fix for this will be coming down the pipe? -John

Re: snes9x
Just a little update: Originally I was getting this error message: Xlib: extension "XFree86-DGA" missing on display ":0.0". I searched around and was able to get this error to go away by removing this line from my XF86Config: Option"omit xfree86-dga" # don't initialise the DGA extension Removing this line appears to create the problem mentioned before where my screen would go black and become unresponsive, so it seems to be a bad idea removing this line. -John
snes9x
Does anyone have snes9x working? When I run it, it loads the rom then I get a black screen and nothing else happens. If I am not running it as root then I get this error: Can't open "/dev/mem", full screen mode not available: Permission denied If I run it as root then my screen goes black and I cannot get the computer to respond to anything.

Re: gcc4 on pure64/gcc-3.4 ?
Forgot to CC the list: As far as I know the gcc-4 depository has quite a bit of problems, you can run gcc-4(3.4.3) from the debian-amd64 depository. Just apt-get install gcc-3.4 and then you will have to point the gcc symlink to gcc-3.4 instead of gcc-3.3. There may be a better way to switch between these, but changing the symlink worked fine for me. -John
Re: question about AMD64 HOWTO

Re: apt-build
The OOo code will not build on amd64 yet, supposively OOo 2.0 will be
64 bit compatable.
Here is a way you can install OOo (1.1.2 I believe, I am at work now,
so I cannot check) in pure64:
http://lists.debian.org/debian-amd64/2005/04/msg00311.html
You will need ia32-libs installed, and ia32-libs-openoffice.org will
have an conflicting file error when installing, so you will need to
dpkg -i --force-all it in order to get it installed. Even though this
really isn't a good thing to do, no one has seemed to have it come
back to bite them in any way, yet If you search the list there
has been quite a bit of talk about the conflict between ia32-libs and
ia32-libs-openoffice.org within the last month.

Re: kernel 2.6.11
Eventually pure64 will no longer exist, before that time pure64 should become a link to debian-pure64. The howto used to read pure64, but has since been corrected to read debian-pure64. I believe packages that are still sid hit pure64 before they hit debian-pure64 (I could be wrong about this). Either way, eventually everyone should be running debian-pure64 as that is the official source. -John On 4/14/05, Lourens Steenkamp <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Tue, 12 Apr 2005 14:38:44 BST > replying to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> : > > > That explains a lot... like why I can always seems to download things > > before they reach sarge... :) I kept getting confused when people said > > "package xxx hasn't been released in sarge yet, its still in sid", yet > > I already had it ;) > > > > Thanks for clearing that up, guys :) > > James > > OK. > This thread has confused me. > > I, like James have the following sources.list: > deb http://bach.hpc2n.umu.se/pure64 testing main contrib non-free > deb-src http://bach.hpc2n.umu.se/pure64 testing main contrib non-free > and also have 2.6.11 kernels available for installation. > > Could someone please explain the difference between using > .../pure64 > and using > .../debian-pure64/ ... > in sources.list ?? > > I also do not understand how I could be using "testing" and end up with > "sid" which is "unstable" AFAIK ?? > > Thanks a mill. > > * > Lourens Steenkamp > Enjoying Debian GNU/Linux AMD64 port > > * > > > -- > To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] > with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Fwd: Installer and installed system differ in disk enumeration
Forgot to CC the list. -- Forwarded message -- From: John Baab <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Apr 12, 2005 8:37 AM Subject: Re: Installer and installed system differ in disk enumeration To: A E Lawrence <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> I have had a similiar problem while using a pata and a sata drive. I wanted to use the pata drive as the secondary drive and the sata drive as the primary, installer goes through fine, but grub would always be pointing to the wrong place (HD1,1 instead of HD0,1). At points I think the installer was actually writing grub to the pata hd's mbr. So I had to edit the grub menu and everything boots fine now.

Re: kernel 2.6.11
At the moment 2.6.11 is only in SID, I seem to recall seeing something
about it making its way to sarge in the next week or so.

Re: grub SATA netinstall problem
After playing with this all of yesterday, I think I have figured out what was going wrong. It seems that no matter what I did, grub installed to the mbr of the IDE hard drive. So I removed the IDE HD, installed onto the SATA and it booted fine (I believe I should have been able to do this by telling grub to install to /dev/sda, but after a while I was getting confused as to which HD grub was coming from so I wanted to make sure it was hitting my SATA). Now when I plug my IDE HD back in grub cannot find the partition, so I edit the grub entry and change the partition to the new location of the SATA HD and it boots fine, problem is changing this in grub is not a permanent fix, so I am going to have to do some research and figure out if this information is stored in the grub config or if I need to reinstall grub. It is also worth noting, that the grub installed to the MBR of the IDE HD would boot to the SATA HD just fine, but I wanted to be running completely off of my SATA HD since the IDE one was just for data storage and may move to a different box at any given time. I think Mike's recomendation will achieve the same results as changing the partition where grub boots to, does anyone see any reason why one is better than the other?

grub SATA netinstall problem
I am looking for some help with a netinstall grub problem. I am trying to install via the 2/20/05 sarge netinstall. The installation goes fine, but upon reboot I am getting "error loading operating system" I have taken notice that durring the grub installation step, grub is installed to /dev/hda0, which is my secondary hard drive on my primary IDE controller. Durring the partition steps I choose my partitions on /dev/sda0. If I remove the IDE hard drive and install everything goes fine and I can boot the system, but upon hooking the IDE hard drive back up my system will no longer boot because my debian system is not located at (hd0,0).. How can I fix the net install so grub is installed to the mbr of my SATA drive and not my IDE drive? Should this hard deive not be hooked up to my primary IDE controller? I have an open raid controller that it can be hooked into instead, If I remember correctly (its been a while since I did my last windows install) in order to get my SATA hard drive to be listed as the c: I had to install windows to it and add the IDE hard drive later. Any help would be appreciated, thanks. P.S. my motherboard is an Asus K8V SE Deluxe. -John -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
