There are some first parts of gnome 2.10 in experimental (currently only
some libs) but I haven't seen the remaining packages yet.
Ubuntu has packaged gnome 2.10 already but I don't how much trouble it
is to use their packages.

I've been seeing the same problems as you after the todays update of
dpkg. I've fixed it for now with a rebuild of dpkg. If you really want
to rebuild dpkg you need the patch from bug #299699 to get dpkg compiled
with gcc-4.0.

No recent debs in the gcc-3.4 archive?

2005-03-06 Thread Michael Bienia
Hello,

I'm using the gcc-3.4 archive but I didn't see any new debs in the
recent days.
Looking in http://debian-amd64.alioth.debian.org/gcc-3.4/buildd-logs/ I
can see build-logs from the last few days but I can't find the build
packages in http://debian-amd64.alioth.debian.org/gcc-3.4/pool.

Is there something broken or is my sources.list not uptodate?

Take the deb for i386 and unpack it manually in /emul/ia32-linux.
Untested:
dpkg-deb -X libxrender1_0.8.3-7_i386.deb /emul/ia32-linux

I've got acroread working but I don't know a ready deb for it. I
installed it through the tar.gz from the adobe website. I also installed
ia32-libs to provide the required 32bit libs.
You also need to modify the acroread wrapper script as described in

Yes, you need the openoffice.org repository on debian-amd64.a.d.o to get
the mentioned packages. Add the following line to your sources.list:

deb http://debian-amd64.alioth.debian.org/openoffice.org/ ./

openoffice.org-debian-files is in the openoffice.org folder and also in
the pure64 archive. You need the one from the openoffice.org folder.
That one from the pure64 archive needs a newer openoffice.org. Try 

apt-get install openoffice.org-debian-files=1.1.2-2+1.0.1

Then you should be able to install openoffice.org-amd64.

I use the gcc-3.4 archive for some weeks now without a problem.
I don't know about the completeness of the archive compared to pure64
but I don't miss any package.

I changed the sources.list to gcc-3.4 and took care to update all
packages to the gcc-3.4 ones especially ones which depend on libstdc++5.
In the end I could remove gcc-3.3 and libstdc++5.

There won't be any package in the pure64 archive. As Christian Marillat
doesn't provide amd64 packages you have to build the package yourself
but you can use the source package from Christian to do it.

I finally solved it and it boots now 2.6.8-rc3 from my SATA disk.
If I unterstood some mails to linux-kernel correctly, accessing SATA
disks through /dev/hdX has moved into a seperate option
(BLK_DEV_IDE_SATA) which defaults to N and the description suggests not
to activate it. SATA disks are now accessed as scsi disk (/dev/sdX).

After I now also included scsi disk support (BLK_DEV_SD) (it wasn't used
in the old kernel so I didn't include it into my new kernel) and
switched from root=/dev/hde5 to root=/dev/sda5 it boots now.

Please fix dict-de-en

2004-07-30 Thread Michael Bienia
Hello,

the currently available dict-de-en deb from debian-amd64 is broken as
the dict files are nearly empty:
-rw-r--r-- root/root   336 2004-05-14 06:53:11 
./usr/share/dictd/english-german.dict.dz
-rw-r--r-- root/root   336 2004-05-14 06:53:09 
./usr/share/dictd/german-english.dict.dz
-rw-r--r-- root/root   102 2004-05-14 06:53:11

-rw-r--r-- root/root   102 2004-05-14 06:53:09 
./usr/share/dictd/german-english.index

I've rebuild the package locally (without a change) and now
the dict files look alright:
-rw-r--r-- root/root   2035661 2004-07-30 22:02:40 
./usr/share/dictd/english-german.dict.dz

-rw-r--r-- root/root   4146061 2004-07-30 22:02:26 
./usr/share/dictd/german-english.index

A rebuild fixed it for me but as the package is arch all I don't know
if a rebuild is really necessary. If I'm not mistaken a reupload of this
package taken from the official archive should be enough.

On i386 I used a self-compiled kernel therefore I can't say if the
debian i386 kernels work or not. What I get with the amd64 kernel is:
- from iwconfig:
| eth1  NOT READY!  ESSID:off/any
|   [...]

- from dmesg:
|  Loaded prism54 driver, version 1.1
|  eth1: prism54 driver detected card model: SMC2802W
  nothing more, I don't see a try to load the firmware.
  The necessary modules are loaded:
| firmware_class 12032  1 prism54
| prism5459736  0
(pci_hotplug is not available)

I use grub. This is from my last try (same config as 2.6.7-5-amd64-k8
but CONFIG_STANDALONE=n):
| title   Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.8-rc2
| root(hd0,4)
| kernel  /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.8-rc2 root=/dev/hde5 ro
| initrd  /boot/initrd.img-2.6.8-rc2
| savedefault
| boot
# ll /boot/initrd.img-2.6.8-rc2
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 4354048 Jul 22 20:46 /boot/initrd.img-2.6.8-rc2

looks ok to me. When trying to boot this kernel the last I see is (from
my head):
- something about unloading some modules
- an error message (dev/console not found)
- and then Kernel panic: tried to kill init

The current root device is /dev/hde5.
# lsmod | grep ata
sata_via8772  0
libata 46088  1 sata_via
scsi_mod  140096  1 libata

In my monolithic kernel config I had:
CONFIG_SCSI=y
CONFIG_SCSI_SATA=y
CONFIG_SCSI_SATA_VIA=y

Is there something missing for compiled-in SATA support?

I tried to boot this kernel also with root=/dev/sda5 but the kernel
gives the same error. I also don't remember to see something about SATA

How to build a kernel which boots from SATA?

2004-07-22 Thread Michael Bienia
Hello,

I've got a new amd64 box and so far everything works fine. But I didn't
get my prism54 card working (it works in my old i386 box). Reading
http://prism54.org/phpwiki/Prism54%20Debian%20HowTo I assume some kernel
options are wrong. So I tried to build a new kernel (2.6.8-rc2) but I
didn't get it to boot from my SATA disk. The installed kernel
(2.6.7-5-amd64-k8-smp) boots fine (module is sata_via).
I tried to compile all necessary drivers into the kernel but it didn't
boot (the error message was AFAIR
Kernel Panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0) )
I also tried to use the configuration from the working kernel and only
change the needed options but I also didn't get it to boot (as I
normally don't use a initrd, is "mkinitrd -o /boot/initrd.img-2.6.8-rc2 
2.6.8-rc2"
the right command to build the initrd?).

What is the correct way to build a kernel which boots from a SATA disk?
