Bug#763743: virtualenvwrapper: Getting "/etc/bash_completion.d/virtualenvwrapper:5: = not found" on login
I confirm that this error occurs when using zsh. virtualenvwrapper is otherwise fully compatible with zsh, and has been until now. if: if [[ "$USE_FULL" == "yes" ]]; then works for both bash and zsh, then I urge you to consider committing the fix so that virtualenvwrapper is compatible with both bash and zsh again.

Bug#659434: gkrelltop: Launching programs using gmrun shows gmrun as the CPU user
Package: gkrelltop Version: 2.2.13-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, * What led up to the situation? Launching a CPU-intensive program via gmrun. * What was the outcome of this action? Although the program lanuched via gmrun is the one actually using the CPU (according to top), gkrelltop reports that usage for gmrun. * What outcome did you expect instead? Show that actual program launched by gmrun that is actually using the CPU. In fact, while gkrelltop is reporting gmrun as the CPU user, gmrun is not running at all at that moment in time. It was used to launch the program, but it does not keep running. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (10, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.1.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_CA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_CA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to en_CA.utf8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages gkrelltop depends on: ii gkrellm 2.3.5-3 ii libc62.13-26 gkrelltop recommends no packages.

Bug#638694: Workaround
xmodmap -e "keycode 108 = Alt_R" This brings back alt/meta behavior to the right alt key while using the us layout, but not while using other international layouts. us layout: right alt is Alt_R other layout: right alt is NoSymbol
Bug#638694: Acknowledgement (xterm: alt- == )
I just realized that I have the same problem in emacs: when I add the grp:alts_toggle option, the left alt works fine, but the right alt is not alt/meta at all. So, I suppose if this can be fixed at the xkb layer, it could be more useful. Any hints?
Bug#638694: xterm: alt- ==
Subject: xterm: alt- == Package: xterm Version: 271-1 Severity: normal Alt key works perfectly as a modifier with any key except for the arrow keys (left, right, up, down). With arrow keys, alt- produces the same codes as alone, as shown by ctrl-v alt-. After adding the grp:alts_toggle xkb option, only the left alt key behaves correctly, but the right alt key then becomes ISO_Level3_Shift, as reported by xev. xmodmap shows ISO_Level3_Shift to be Mod5. Moving ISO_Level3_Shift from Mod5 to Mod1 breaks alt- again. Only grp:alts_toggle can fix alt-, and then it mutates alt_r into ISO_Level3_Shift. Other toggle options have no effect on this issue. Note also that alts_toggle and ctrls_toggle don't actually do any toggling. I tried menu_toggle and shifts_toggle and they do toggle. I am not sure if this is xterm's fault, but gnome-terminal does not have this problem. $ setxkbmap -query rules: evdev model: pc105 layout: us,ar -> alt- == $ setxkbmap -option grp:alts_toggle $ setxkbmap -query rules: evdev model: pc105 layout: us,ar options:grp:alts_toggle -> alt_L- Works -> alt_R- == -> alt_R is ISO_Level3_Shift -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.0.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_CA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_CA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to en_CA.UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages xterm depends on: ii libc6 2.13-10Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libfontconfig12.8.0-3generic font configuration library ii libice6 2:1.0.7-2 X11 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libncurses5 5.9-1 shared libraries for terminal hand ii libutempter0 1.1.5-4A privileged helper for utmp/wtmp ii libx11-6 2:1.4.4-1 X11 client-side library ii libxaw7 2:1.0.9-2 X11 Athena Widget library ii libxft2 2.2.0-3FreeType-based font drawing librar ii libxmu6 2:1.1.0-2 X11 miscellaneous utility library

Bug#543718: Solution
Here is how I managed to get it working. There may be some redundant steps, but it worked for me repeatedly (more than one remote gkrelltopd on different architectures and debian releases - stable and testing) 1. Delete all gkrellm configuration on the client machine that are relevant to remote machine running gkrelltopd 2. Disable gkrelltopd plugin on the remote machine, and restart gkrellmd without gkrelltopd 3. Run gkrellm on the client with the gkrelltop plugin enabled. This should show the gkrelltop without errors, but showing top processes on the *client* machine 3. Enable gkrellotpd on the remote machine 4. Restart gkrellm on the client machine. Now you should see the remote's top processes, and have no errors/seg-faults. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

That's very odd because I'm fairly sure this is a bug in the Ethernet driver rather than in NFS or something. If you really see this with wireless this would of course change everything.

Bug#404447: nfs-kernel-server: Transferred files get corrupted
If it is indeed an ethernet driver issue, why does nfs cause errors when transferring file _to_ to the server only? Transfers from the server to the client cause absolutely no errors.

Bug#404447: nfs-kernel-server: Transferred files get corrupted
I'm still on 2.6.18-3-ixp4xx. Yesterday, I have had I/O errors over samba. These were my first samba incidents, but then again I just started using samba recently. I have been trying to reproduce the error with samba with no luck. My conclusion is that errors occur much less frequently with samba than with nfs. The first explanation that comes to my mind is that samba puts less load on the network than nfs does, as samba transfers at about 40% the rate of nfs, thus supporting the 'ethernet driver bad behavior under load' argument. This also explains why rdiff-backup did not result in any errors although it managed to transfer files nfs used to corrupt -- because it transfers at a much lower speed. Probably someone should try transfers over http or ftp to confirm it's not specific to nfs as they are capable of transferring at similarly high speeds. This leaves the issue of other kernels. To be honest, I cannot rely on my memory. I am sure I have had nfs trouble with all the configurations I ran (d-i beta2, debootstrapped slugOS kernel, and 2.6.18-3-ixp4xx), but cannot confirm the 'reproducibility'/frequency and the type of the errors at this time on the old configurations. As far as I remember, d-i beta2 did not have the nfs kernel modules, so it probably was the nfs-user-server only. On debootstrapped slugOS kernel though, I installed the nfs kernel modules (ipkg files) and ran into some trouble with nfs too, but I cannot be more specific on that. I have not tried Debian's 2.6.17 at any time, as I upgraded from slugOS kernel to Debian's 2.6.18. - Ahmad Martin Michlmayr wrote: * Martin Michlmayr <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [2006-12-29 22:36]: That's odd.

I've tested: - NFS on another ARM platform, namely IOP32x: it works fine. - 2.6.18-2 on NSLU2 to rule out the mm/msync patches: it works fine. - 2.6.17 on NSLU2 using the Intel Ethernet driver: it works fine. In 2.6.18 we have switched to a different Ethernet driver. Various people have experienced problems when transferring large amounts of data with this driver, and given my tests I'm pretty sure that this is what we're seeing in this case too. Some people have suggested that setting sysctl net.ipv4.tcp_wmem="4096 8092 8092" helps. Unfortunately, I still see NFS problems so it doesn't completely get rid of the problems.

Subject: gnome-utils: Limited list pre-configured of dictionaries Package: gnome-utils Version: 2.14.0-1 Severity: wishlist Tags: l10n This problem was introduced with the latest version of the gnome dictionary applet. The previous version had a comprehensive list of dictionaries to choose from. This is no longer the case for no obvious reason. The interface has changed but the new interface can accommodate the old complete list. Moreover, trying to add a new "source" as it is called in the new "Preferences" dialog is a mystery. There are some dropdown lists but with nothing to choose from. I tried a few values I guessed but could not get the applet to work with any new source I add. I am particularly interested in the English-Arabic and Arabic-English (was not there before but there was a "translating dictionaries" that did the trick) dictionaries. English-Arabic dictionary does exist on the dict.org server. Another unexpected problem is that once a source is added it cannot be edited.

Bug#373886: Using cacti with other web servers than apache variants
Hi Sean,
Thank you for considering this issue.
I can provide you with some information regarding lighttpd in
particular as it is the web server I am using. I am not sure how this
will work for other packages providing httpd, so there might be a
problem there unless someone verifies them all!
As for the apache mod-php, php support is already included in lighttpd
package in form of two alternative modules (both included in lighttpd
package): mod_cgi and mod_fastcgi. The lighttpd package provides
httpd-cgi besides httpd, and recommends php{4,5}-cgi packages (either
one). So, lighttpd package on its own will do what apache +
libapache-mod-php? does, but php{4,5}-cgi still needs to be installed,
probably by a cacti dependency.
lighttpd configuration to enable php support can be done as easily as
running the command:
lighty-enable-mod fastcgi
you can replace fastcgi with cgi to use mod_cgi instead of mod_fastcgi,
but I didn't try that and cannot tell for sure if it will work or not.
You can similarly disable the module (probably for remove scripts)
using the command:
lighty-disable-mod fastcgi
As for alias support, mod_alias is enabled by default in the debian
package in the /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf file. To setup an alias, you
add a line like the following to lighttpd.conf or some other conf file
in /etc/lighttpd/conf-enabled/ (usually symlinks to file in
/etc/lighttpd/conf-available):
alias.url += ( "/cacti/" => "/usr/share/cacti/site/" )
The + indicates that this is not the first alias line in the conffile,
so append this alias to the previous aliases. If it were the first
alias line, it would not have the +. The lighttpd.conf file though does
have a dummy first alias line so that all other alias lines use the +.
By the way, I tried to make /usr/share/cacti/site/ my web server's
root, but images wouldn't load. The rest of the site is working, but
there are no images at all.
I hope this helps..
Regards,
- Ahmad

to provide a little more help, could one of you two also provide

Bug#373886: Using cacti with other web servers than apache variants
Subject: Using cacti with other web servers than apache variants Package: cacti Version: 0.8.6h-3 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch Problem --- I wanted to use cacti with lighttpd, but installing cacti pulled apache2 along which I did not want installed. Solution Someone in the #debian irc channel on freenode.net (I wish I can remember who) advised me to use the equivs package to track down the problem, which I did. I used php5 instead of php4 all along. I performed the following steps before attempting anything of my objectives: 1. I installed cacti and all of its dependencies. I used php5 instead of the default php4 by explicitly installing the php5 counterparts of the dependencies of cacti, then I installed cacti with its other default dependencies (apache2, mysql 5, ... etc.) 2. I needed to manually add "extension=mysql.so" to /etc/php5/apache/php.ini. For some reason, the other extensions were enables except mysql's. 3. At this point, cacti was working fine on apache. To make sure that the concept of using lighttpd with cacti is feasible, I tried to run cacti on top of lighttpd using the following steps: 1. I installed lighttpd, configured it to run on a different port, enabled the built-in fastcgi module, installed php5-cgi, and added an alias to cacti's site folder. 2. Again, I needed to manually add "extension=mysql.so" to /etc/php5/cgi/php.ini. 3. At this point, cacti was working fine on lighttpd, too. The next step was to make sure that lighttpd is capable of running cacti on its own and without any help from any apache component, I tried to purge apache and its related stuff and make sure lighttpd can still run cacti. So, I did the following (every remove in the following is actually a purge): 1. Remove apache2 (I'm not sure if apache2 package was really installed or not, since apache2-mpm-prefork provides apache2 and was installed): Effect: - No effect. Not used. apache2-mpm-prefork (a dependency of libapache2-mod-php[45]) is used instead. 2. Replace libapache2-mod-php5 with an empty package that provides libapache2-mod-php5 (created using equivs): Effect: - php doesn't work with apache anymore after a force-reload. - lighttpd still works fine after a force-reload. 3. Replace apache2-mpm-prefork with an empty package that provides apache2 (trying to remove apache2-mpm-prefork caused cacti to get uninstalled since apache2-mpm-prefork provides apache2 which is a dependency of cacti): Effect: - No apache server installed. - lighttpd still working with php and cacti. 4. Remove apache2-common. Now the only apache-related package still installed (other than the equivs dummies!) is apache2-utils, which is suggested by lighttpd and removing it won't casue any problems. Conclusion -- cacti can work with other web servers than apache variants. I verified this lighttpd only, but there should be no reason for any other web server that supports php not to be able to run cacti. I did not try to find out an alternative set of dependencies for cacti, but basically httpd along with some php dependency should do it, besides the database setup dependencies. I have to say that I did not have to worry about any database stuff. It was well setup by default. The system information below is for a temporary test setup.

However, [EMAIL PROTECTED] becomes [EMAIL PROTECTED], which is unroutable at the smarthost. Probably localhost should be treated uniquely. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: arm (armv5tel) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.15-1-nslu2 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages nullmailer depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.1 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.3.6-7 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libgcc1 1:4.1.0-4 GCC support library ii libstdc++6 4.1.0-4 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii lsb-base 3.1-5 Linux Standard Base 3.1 init scrip Versions of packages nullmailer recommends: ii sysklogd [system-log-daemon] 1.4.1-17.2 System Logging Daemon

Bug#362869: No direct rendering for radeon 9100 IGP
Right.. There was another package containing the same libGL.so file. I uninstalled it, reinstalled xlibmesa-gl, and direct redering is enabled.. :). Now glxgears renders around 600 FPS, which is better but still kind of slow. On the other hand, the display (2D) is really slow. Even switching between windows is slow.. I can see the new window being drawn. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Bug#362869: No direct rendering for radeon 9100 IGP
Package: xlibmesa-dri Version: 6.9.0.dfsg.1-6 Severity: important No direct rendering for ATI's Radeon 9100 IGP integrated graphics card. I am using X.org's (6.9.0) ati driver with no options. My xorg.conf file was created at install time automatically and I haven't changed anything regarding the graphics device. The effect is that the display is awfully slow. Even switching between windows take a while and I can see the new window being drawn! glxgears did not even make it to 200 FPS. Max. was 199.228 FPS. dmesg | grep drm: [drm] Initialized drm 1.0.0 20040925 [drm] Initialized radeon 1.19.0 20050911 on minor 0: [drm] Loading R200 Microcode grep drm /var/log/Xorg.0.log: (II) Loading sub module "drm" (II) LoadModule: "drm" (II) Loading /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/linux/libdrm.so (II) Module drm: vendor="X.Org Foundation" drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card0 drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (No such device or address) drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (No such device or address) drmOpenDevice: Open failed drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card0 drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (No such device or address) drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (No such device or address) drmOpenDevice: Open failed drmOpenByBusid: Searching for BusID pci::01:05.0 drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card0 drmOpenDevice: open result is 8, (OK) drmOpenByBusid: drmOpenMinor returns 8 drmOpenByBusid: drmGetBusid reports pci::01:05.0 (II) RADEON(0): [drm] loaded kernel module for "radeon" driver (II) RADEON(0): [drm] DRM interface version 1.2 (II) RADEON(0): [drm] created "radeon" driver at busid "pci::01:05.0" (II) RADEON(0): [drm] added 8192 byte SAREA at 0xdcba5000 (II) RADEON(0): [drm] mapped SAREA 0xdcba5000 to 0xb78bf000 (II) RADEON(0): [drm] framebuffer handle = 0xf000 (II) RADEON(0): [drm] added 1 reserved context for kernel (II) RADEON(0): [drm] register handle = 0xe810 (II) RADEON(0): [drm] installed DRM signal handler (II) RADEON(0): [drm] Added 32 65536 byte vertex/indirect buffers (II) RADEON(0): [drm] Mapped 32 vertex/indirect buffers (II) RADEON(0): [drm] dma control initialized, using IRQ 177 (II) RADEON(0): [drm] Initialized kernel GART heap manager, 5111808 The following kernel modules are loaded: radeon 97216 1 drm66164 2 radeon The output of LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose glxinfo: name of display: :0.0 libGL: XF86DRIGetClientDriverName: 5.0.3 r200 (screen 0) libGL: OpenDriver: trying /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri/r200_dri.so libGL error: dlopen /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri/r200_dri.so failed (/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri/r200_dri.so: undefined symbol: _glapi_set_warning_func) libGL error: unable to find driver: r200_dri.so libGL: XF86DRIGetClientDriverName: 5.0.3 r200 (screen 0) libGL: OpenDriver: trying /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri/r200_dri.so libGL error: dlopen /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri/r200_dri.so failed (/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri/r200_dri.so: undefined symbol: _glapi_set_warning_func) libGL error: unable to find driver: r200_dri.so display: :0 screen: 0 direct rendering: No server glx vendor string: SGI server glx version string: 1.2 server glx extensions: GLX_ARB_multisample, GLX_EXT_visual_info, GLX_EXT_visual_rating, GLX_EXT_import_context, GLX_OML_swap_method, GLX_SGI_make_current_read, GLX_SGIS_multisample, GLX_SGIX_hyperpipe, GLX_SGIX_swap_barrier, GLX_SGIX_fbconfig client glx vendor string: ATI client glx version string: 1.3 client glx extensions: GLX_EXT_visual_info, GLX_EXT_visual_rating, GLX_EXT_import_context, GLX_ARB_get_proc_address, GLX_ARB_multisample, GLX_ATI_pixel_format_float, GLX_ATI_render_texture GLX extensions: GLX_EXT_visual_info, GLX_EXT_visual_rating, GLX_EXT_import_context, GLX_ARB_multisample OpenGL vendor string: Mesa project: www.mesa3d.org OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect OpenGL version string: 1.2 (1.5 Mesa 6.4.1) OpenGL extensions: GL_ARB_imaging, GL_ARB_multitexture, GL_ARB_texture_border_clamp, GL_ARB_texture_cube_map, GL_ARB_texture_env_add, GL_ARB_texture_env_combine, GL_ARB_texture_env_dot3, GL_ARB_transpose_matrix, GL_EXT_abgr, GL_EXT_blend_color, GL_EXT_blend_minmax, GL_EXT_blend_subtract, GL_EXT_texture_env_add, GL_EXT_texture_env_combine, GL_EXT_texture_env_dot3, GL_EXT_texture_lod_bias glu version: 1.3 glu extensions: GLU_EXT_nurbs_tessellator, GLU_EXT_object_space_tess visual x bf lv rg d st colorbuffer ax dp st accumbuffer ms cav id dep cl sp sz l ci b ro r g b a bf th cl r g b a ns b eat -- 0x23 24 tc 0 32 0 r . . 8 8 8 8 0 24 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 None 0x24 24 tc 0 32 0 r . . 8 8 8 8 0 24 8 0 0 0 0 1 0 None 0x25 24 tc 0 32 0 r . . 8 8 8 8 0 24 0 16 16 16 16 1 0 Slow 0x26 24 tc 0 32 0 r . . 8 8 8 8 0 24 8 16 16 16 16 1 0 Slow 0x27 24 tc 0 32 0 r y . 8 8 8 8 0 24 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 None 0x28 24 tc 0 32
Bug#362708: Acknowledgement (acpi_cpufreq and snd_atiixp conflict)
An update.. A more specific problem description: If I am using acpi_cpufreq driver, any change in the cpu frequency, whether manual or automatic (using an automatic governer like ondemand) causes any application using sound at the time of the frequency change to hang!!!
Bug#362708: acpi_cpufreq and snd_atiixp conflict
Package: linux-image-2.6.15-1-686-smp Severity: normal When acpi_cpufreq kernel module is loaded, alsa would randomly break. The application accessing sound sometimes hangs and cpu usage gets 100%, and sometimes it works fine. Multiple applications accessing sound at the same time often causes the problem to appear, but a single application could too. Without acpi_cpufreq loaded, alsa works perfectly fine with single or multiple applications accessing sound at the same time. I am not sure, though, if this is a problem with my acpi. This is a Toshiba Satellite A70 laptop with atiixp chipset and Pheonix BIOS. The machine shuts down properly but does not reboot. Reboot completes the shutdown but stops there before actually turning off the machine or rebooting it. LEDs stay on and I can hear the fan. I used to use p4_clockmod scaling driver just fine. acpi_cpufreq could not be loaded in previous kernels. This is the first kernel in which I managed to load acpi_cpufreq, and it seems to work fine, except for the sound problem. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (900, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable')
Bug#337954: Remote rdiff: Can't connect, test succeeds
1. That was my substituation.. consider those as variables. 2. Is there any means by which I can provide the passphrase to the scheduled backups? It seems that thay do not run in the current logged-in session, otherwise they could have used the session's ssh agent. micah wrote: -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Ahmad Khayyat wrote: Package: backupninja Version: 0.9-1 backupninja -t -n succeeds, but scheduled backups don's.
