Bug#873611: workaround: I have found out how to install newer version of nethogs that works

2017-09-12 Thread Chad Chenault
I do not consider this problem fixed, because a novice user would try
to use this stable package and the application would not work. The
stable package should be removed if it is not going to work because the
application crashes which introduces security vulnerabilities. I was
able to install a newer version of nethogs from the "deb http://ftp.deb
ian.org/debian jessie-backports main" repository. Here are the steps I
used to get nethogs working.
1. Uninstall nonworking nethogs if installed from Jessie main
repository.
2. Install the jessie-backports repository. I followed these
instructions: https://backports.debian.org/Instructions/
3. Install application from backports.
# apt-get -t jessie-backports install nethogs

Thanks,
Chad



Bug#873611: nethogs does not run with error: creating socket failed

2017-08-29 Thread Chad Chenault
Package: nethogs
Version: 0.8.0-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***


I installed nethogs and it does not run. I am running it as root user. I get 
the following error message 'creating socket failed while establishing local IP 
- are you 
root?'. I have seen on the web that this has been fixed however this upgraded 
nethogs has not made to Debian 8.9. Does the updated nethogs package need to be 
pushed 
down to this version of Debian? I am willing to test the newer version of 
nethogs, but I need guidance on how to proceed. Thank you for your time.

Bug#873603: glx-diversions: Install and uninstall nvidia-driver fails with ERROR: The conflicting library '/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libGL.so.1.2' is known to dpkg.

Dear Maintainer,

I changed graphics card from AMD to Nvidia and errors with installation of 
nvidia-grive. Graphics card is 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA 
Corporation GT215

I may have had old nvidia drivers or the nouveau installed at one time that

Version: 0.5.1
Followup-For: Bug #867188

Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

I install nvidia-driver and glx-diversions would never install. I had installed 
a geforce gt240 graphics card. I gave up on getting it to work and uninstalled 
the 
nvidia driver but glx-diversions will not uninstall. I am removing the gt240 
graphics card and will try an AMD card.

Dear Maintainer,

Thank you for looking into this matter. I Installed nvidia GeForce GT 240 
graphics card and then software "nvidia-driver"

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
 ineffective)?  I did not try to correct the problem because of a lack of 
knowledge.

   * What was the outcome of this action?   repeated errors on "apt-get 
upgrade" with error messages on installing libgl1-nvidia-glx:amd64, 
xserver-xorg-video-nvidia, 
and nvidia-driver. I also have the following messages:
