Hi,

A simpler configuration than Jörg's (if you have a simple WPA) is to put
this in your /etc/network/interfaces:

auto eth1   - you may want it to auto connect
iface eth1 inet dhcp
wpa-driver wext
wpa-ssid your_ssid
wpa-key-mgmt WPA-PSK
wpa-psk your_wpa_psk- or wpa-psk your_ascii_passphrase

I don't know if there is a difference between the use of the WPA PSK
(obtained with wpa_passphrase) and the use of the ASCII passphrase.

Note that the name of your wireless interface may change (for instance with
the new 2.6.24(-rc) b43 driver. You can have a stable interface name using
the ifrename package.

Note also that you won't be able to use network-manager as enabling an
interface in /etc/network/interfaces disables its management by
network-manager.
That's why I agree with your first post, it would be good to have a console
client for network-manager. ;-)

Hi Yves-Alexis,

According to Michael (the network-manager maintainer) the nm-applet should
accept either the wpa-psk or the ascii passphrase.

The problem under KDE is that the nm-applet does not remenber the key (I'll

PS: By the way Denis, just a thought. On MacOs X, the ISO_Level3_shift key
is the alt key. With xkb, it's the right alt key, à la PC AltGr. I don't
know how good would be the idea to make the alt key ISO_Level3_shift and
the apple key Alt_L(R). The advantage is for people switching from MacOS to
GNU/Linux keep the same keyboard habits but the problem is in program where
the Alt +... shortcuts becomes Apple +... shortcuts.

 I tried ISO_Level3_Shift and it acts as the Mode_Switch I had with my

Here it's possible with the usb keyboard but is very weird with the ibook
keyboard. For instance, if I want to make a | (shit + ISO_Level3_Shift + l)
I have to do fn + shift + alt release fn + shit while maintaining alt
and do a l. ;-)

There's also the problem of the lack of multi-key (for instance if you want
to make a ó).

I'm not used to xkb (I know only a little of xmodmap) so I don't know the
use of Super_L and Super_R but I would suggest to assign the ibook apple key
(keycode 115) to ISO_Level3_Shift and the fn + apple key (keycode 116) to
multi-key.

Note that on a apple usb keyboard that would assign the left apple key (115)
to ISO_Level3_Shift and the right apple key (116) to multi-key.

On the apple usb keyboard, the right alt key (113) is yet assigned to
ISO_Level3_Shift so it could be assigned to Alt_R which would be consistent
with the ibook keyboard: alt=Alt_L fn+alt=Alt_R (like ctrt=Ctrl_L and
fn+ctrl=Ctrl_R).

By the way, if someone can indicate me a document explaining the use of
Ctrl_R, Alt_R, Super_L and Super_R. And also, is there a use for mod_switch
with xkb?

 Possibly. It looks like a mixed problem with kded and the kernel (the
 kernel because the CD driver shouldn't spam your log with what looks
 like a normal thing).

 Do you have a bug report open somewhere on a bugzilla ? If not, please
 open one on bugzilla.kernel.org with all the infos about the issue

 problem is this error in your log triggered by kded) and add me to the
 CC list of the bug. I'll try to followup.

Hi Benjamin,

Why do you suggest me to open a bug on the kernel's bugzilla? Is that because 
of the 'hdc: tray open' message in the log (although I have a slot drive)?

Is it possible that this message comes from kded? as for exemple with Gnome 
there's no problem to read a cdrom and this message does not appear in the 
logs.

When I run some X11 programs, Xorg crashes and returns to the desktop

gnucash...) have this problem, I initialy thought it was a bug in gdk-imlib
but unfortunately other programs lead to the same X crashes, e.g. fontforge
or kdiff3.

Does anybody have the same problems?

If someone can help me to figure out what's wrong, here are attached the

2005-10-21 Thread Yannick Roehlly
Good evening again,

As I already wrote on this list [1], I have a problem with KDE 3.4.2 on my
ibook. When I insert a cdrom, kded (in fact the media watcher part of
kded) starts eating all the cpu and I have to eject the cd using de F11
key.

This problem have been reported in the Ubuntu BTS under the number 10193.
[2].

In this list, Johannes Raspe reported [3] about another problem with kded
that he solved setting hdc to udma1 [4] but this leaded to other problems
(hdc: lost interrupts) [5].

I dont have the same problem as Johannes (kded crashing when exiting KDE)
but I tested setting hdc to udma1. With this, kded no longer eats cpu but
hald is stuck with the cdrom (ide-pmac lost interrupt, dma status: 8080 ;
hdc: lost interrupt ; hdc: status error: status=0x58 { DriveReady
SeekComplete DataRequest } ; ide: failed opcode was: unknown ; hdc: drive
not ready for command) and the cdrom is unusable ; I have to kill hald to
be able to eject the cd.

May this problem (the first one described in this message) be related to
dma, knowing that outside of KDE everything's ok?

Without touching to hdparm, /dev/hdc is set to mdma2. What should be the
correct mode for an ibook?

Sincerely,

Yannick

Hi Sven,

I've tested your packages. In 2D, everythings seem ok but in 3D glxgear
reports :

- ~670 fps with 6.8.2.dfsg.1-6 0
- ~160 fps with 6.8.99.900.dfsg.1-0pre1 0

:'(

Sincerely,

Yannick

Re: 3com wireless usb adapter

Hi Leonardo,

 does anyone get the 3Com 3CRUSB10075 OfficeConnect Wireless working on
 powerbook g4 (with driver from http://sourceforge.net/projects/zd1211)??

I'm using this driver with a Trendnet TEW-424UB wireless usb adaptater on an
ibook. The cvs driver works but I'm experiencing frequent disconnections
with my ibook. As I don't have this problem with my desktop computer
(i386), I think it's a powerpc related issue.

I've asked for help to identify the problem on the driver mailing list and
I'm waiting.

Hi. I wrote this post and I was a little too enthousiat at that time (as I
told in a later post).

My zd1211 based stick has some problems on my ibook whereas it works find on
i386. I'm trying to identify the problem (with the help of the zd1211
development forum) before I can ask for the help of a powerpc guru
here. ;-)

 device is quite cheap (29¤) and I really wanted to have wifi under
 GNU/Linux on my ibook.
 
 Do you have an iBook G3 or G4?

Hi,

It's an ibook G4 (late 2004).

Nevertheless, I have to temper my enthousiasm. I have some disconnections
with this device (at least, I works better than the Airport Extreme
card... ;-)).

 But when I unplug my usb mouse (without even going to sleep),
 mouseemu and pbbuttonsd start to eat 99% of the cpu and I have to
 restart them. Is there a way to investigate on my machine to find out
 the problem and help the developpers?
 
 Arh, I don't really know if you can do something without developing. I
 guess I'll have to put my hands on an usb mouse and debug mouseemu
 myself... For pbbuttons you'll have to ask Matthias Grimm - if he
 didn't already see your mail, that is.

Hi Colin,

It's a bit more complicated... In fact, this problem seems to only occur
when mouseemu is running and only the first time the usb mouse is unplugged.
Explanations...

With pbbuttonsd runing but not mouseemu, everything's ok (at least, I
disabled mouseemu in rc2 and I never encountered the problem again).

With mouseemu and pbbuttonsd both running, here is the scenario :

- iBook started with mouseemu and pbbuttonsd
- top is launch to monitor the cpu consumption
- the mouse is unpluged
- mouseemu starts to eat all cpu activity
- /etc/init.d/mouseemu stop
- pbbuttons starts to eat all cpu activity
- /etc/init.d/pbbuttonsd restart
- everything's ok
- mouse is plugged in
- mouse is unplugged
- etc...
- everythings is still ok.

Tell me is you want me to test various scenarii (restarting mouseemu instead
of stoping, test without pbbuttonsd...).

Sincerely,

Yannick
