Look for icedove. Same thing.



That would be FireFox, not Firebird, which is a DB engine.

Boot from an install/rescue CD and fsck the partition from there.  It
sounds like very serious disk unhappiness.  It might be worth dd'ing a
copy of the disk somewhere safe before you start so if it all goes wrong
you can at least get back to square one.


The problem is that this is a sarge instalation, and the sarge CD don't 
boot in rescue mode. :-(

file problems

2007-02-26 Thread Martin Marques
I got to work today and found that my debian sparc didn't respond 
(keyboard, X, etc. dead). I could get to it via ssh, but very strange 
things happend, like w, ps, top dying with exit 137 (they just printed the 
killed message).


Then I rebooted and found that X didn't come up.

Checking out, I found this:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/space/home/martin$ ls -l /usr/X11R6/lib/libGLU.so.1
?x 1024 3758227200 536870912 117497918 Feb 21  1989 
/usr/X11R6/lib/libGLU.so.1


This file I can't touch it at all (as root), not even change the file 
permissions.


Looks like a file corruption, but how can I force a file check on debian 
sparc. For some reason I can't get to the silo menu, and even if I do, how 
do I pass parameters to the kernel so it starts ro?


Any ideas?

Is the SunPCI board the PCI Bridge? I have on of those in my U5 and last time 
I tried Xorg 7 it corrupted my disk, leaving me no other option but to 
reinstall.
At the momento I'm working with XFree until I'm sure that xorg works ok 
(which doesn't seem to be the case).

Here's my output from lspci:

The difference with you is that I am using the PCI bridge.

How truthful are the statements of Roman related to kernel 2.4 vs. 2.6. I 
rekall reading that Linus Torvalds is working on SPARC the last years, so I 
would say that it should be working quite well.

P.D.: I am with the latest 2.4 at the moment, but planning to junp to 2.6 soon.

Changing the driver to ati makes everything work nicely though. Versions of

OK, I'm having some trouble with Xorg. I followed the procedure, installed 
the exact versions mentioned above, and X doesn't start.


Now, first of all I found that there is no x_accel module, so I added the

But after that I got this error:

The problem is that I can't set the frambuffer to off. My Console works

One more thing related with this issue.

When I try to install xserver-xorg-video-ati it wants to remove kcontrol, 
kdesktop, konq-plugins, konqueror, etc. Is this OK (I don't think so). Maybe it 
has to do with the fact that KDE is being updated the last few days. Anyway,

Talking of that... is Debian/SPARC gonna make it to etch? I can't run KDE apps

My xorg.conf file had this:

Section "Device"
Identifier  "ATI Technologies, Inc. 3D Rage Pro 215GP"
Driver  "ati"
BusID   "PCI:1:2:0"
Option  "UseFBDev"  "true"
EndSection

So I guess (looking at your xorg.conf) that all I have to do is comment the 
Option of UseFBDev.

Excelent!

A couple of months ago I tried upgrading my XFree86 to Xorg On my U5 with that 
ATI video card. The result is that the whole workstation freezes, and I have to 
turn it off (reset boton doesn't work in this case). What I'm sure is that it 
wasn't Xorg 7.0 (6 something).

What I did then was downgrade to XFree86 from stable and leave it there. I may 
try again to upgrade this wekend.

Here on a SUN Ultra5 works great[1]

Just one thing. Shouldn't you had changed the version so there's no conflict 
with the testing package? They both have the same version as of today.

P.D.: When will the patch make it to unstable?

Thanks Admar, It's a sad situation :(
With the previous version of firefox I haven't the problem. But I'm not

If anyone can help, I thank in advance ;)


To add to the oddities of this, it chashes on the default page which is 
http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/updated. Also I see broken dependencies, 
like trying to install mozilla-firefox says it needs version 
1.5.dfsg+1.5.0.1-3 of firefox (which is available in i386).


So, AFAIK, the problem is that firefox is not correctly updated for SPARC.

This is a real problem for me. I also have to deal with not been able to 
start the 2.6.x kernel for SPARC due to some problem with udev, which 
gives a kernel panic in the boot.


SWF is another aplication which gives problems on SPARC (I had to 
downgrade to stable as the testing version hanged my firefox).


Also KDE is totally broken in SPARC testing. Apps start, but crashes for 
some unknown reason. Thsi happens with apps that go from kmail or 
konqueror to klipper and knotes.


I hope we can get these issues solve quickly.

Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that

udev not working

2006-03-17 Thread Lic. Martin Marques
I reinstalled an U5 some time ago, and I haven't been able to get kernel 
2.6 working. Aparently it's all due to a udev problem. When I boot I get 
errors like:


udevd-event: run_program: exec of program `/lib/udev/udev_run_hotplug` 
failed


I get tons of those lines with other udev libs, and after that, a kernel 
panic.


Udev is 0.085-1 and kernel is 2.6.15-1 (2.6.15-8).

Any ideas on what could be happening?

Cron not working

I'm having some serious problems with cron jobs. Aparently, they just aren't 
working correctly. There are lots of scripts in /etc/cron.daily/ that don't 
get executed by crond, but latter in the day get executed by anacron.

Now, why could this be like that? I searched the logs, just to find nothing, 
neither in the configuration files of /etc/crontab and /etc/anacrontab.

Can someone give me a hint?

P.D.: Cron is working. My personal cron jobs get executed right on time.

I got it to compile and link using what Tom Callaway suggested:

export LDEMULATION=elf64_sparc

with the aditional

export CC="gcc -m64"

Now I have trouble running initdb. Don't know if it has something to do with 
my semvmax configuration (using the kernel from the distro), or with the 64

32 vs. 64

2003-11-14 Thread Martin Marques
With all this 64bits discussion of the last day, I was thinking... the debs 
that come with Debian SPARC, surelly are compiled with 32 bit support, right?
Isn't there plans on having more 64 bits support in the linux SPARC 
distribution.
I mean, I'm right now compiling, with some problems, PostgreSQL-7.4RC2, and I 
think it's going out with 64 bit support. Now, on some application, I find 64 
to be little important, but on my database server it may be crucial to have 
it (if the arch supports it).

That solved it

Now how could I get that inside the /usr/bin/ld, unless I alias it? Maybe it 
should be in the configure or the makefiles.

perl upgrade problem

2003-11-13 Thread Martin Marques
I upgraded gaim to unstable to have MSN support, and with it came a new 
version of perl (gaim depends on perl?).

Any way, the new perl screwed up my amavisd-new which was spitting out lots of 
messages about not finding utf8.pm, which was installed. The problem is that 
it had the old paths in @INC and was pointing to no where.

I got a fix on amavisd-new making a symlink, but I would like to know how to 
make it work correctly, and not expect another problem with some other perl 
dependent aplication.

Sorry if this has nothing to do with the thread, but a few weeks ago I sent a 
mail with inconviniences in compiling PostgreSQL with 64bit support. In the 
PostgreSQL list, the person that had tested PG in Linux SPARC (Debian) said 
it couldn't be compiled with 64 bit support (even when configure found 64 bit 
support in the system).
Is there a straight forward way to get full (or almost full) 64 bit support in 
Linux on SPARC? Does it have to do with GCC or glibc?

Here is the link to the mail I sent (it has the output from make):

2003-11-06 Thread Martin Marques
Just got this as a reply from the PGSQL list, and I'm very interested in the 
64 bit capacity of Linux on my U5 SPARC. Is it posible to have a real 64 bit 
compiler, and with that have aplications like PG with 64 bit support?

That's the same result I had.  The machine doesn't have a 64-bit userland
and compiler tools.  You need to run

sparc32 ./configure
sparc32 make
sparc32 make all

At least on Debian.  I don't think we're in a position to support 64-bit
Sparcs on Linux at this point.

Error with firebird

2003-10-21 Thread Martin Marques
I'm having this problem with mozilla-firebird since I upgraded to 0.6. When I 
try to execute de binary (not the mozilla-firebird script) I get this:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/martin$ /usr/lib/mozilla-firebird/MozillaFirebird-bin
/usr/lib/mozilla-firebird/MozillaFirebird-bin: relocation error: /usr/lib/
mozilla-firebird/MozillaFirebird-bin: undefined symbol: _ZTV14nsGetInterface

Any ideas?

They didn't fic Mozilla Firebird, which is still broken in testing:

bugs:~# apt-cache showpkg mozilla-firebird
Package: mozilla-firebird

0.6.1-7(/var/lib/apt/lists/mirrors.kernel.org_debian_dists_testing_main_binary-sparc_Packages)(/var/lib/apt/lists/mirrors.kernel.org_debian_dists_unstable_main_binary-sparc_Packages)(/var/lib/dpkg/status)

This is MozillaFirebird from testing, not unstable.
An I read the whole thread, but didn't mind much about it, just because I'm on 
testing.
Anyway, looks like it's the same version for testing and for unstable:

bugs:~# apt-cache showpkg mozilla-firebird
Package: mozilla-firebird
Versions:
0.6.1-7(/var/lib/apt/lists/mirrors.kernel.org_debian_dists_testing_main_binary-sparc_Packages)
(/var/lib/apt/lists/mirrors.kernel.org_debian_dists_unstable_main_binary-sparc_Packages)
(/var/lib/dpkg/status)
[...]

FireBird doesn't work after an upgrade today

2003-10-04 Thread Martin Marques
I upgraded my Debian testing, and all of a sudden MozillaFirebird doesn't work 
any more. I try to execute it from the teminal, and it just doesn't show up. 
No errors, no nothing.

Any ideas?

locales not installing

2003-08-05 Thread Martin Marques
Anybody has an idea on why this is happening.

I have a Debian testing on a U5, but with kde3.1 from Debian/unstable.

The problem is that kde needed libc6 from unstable so locale was uninstalled, 
and the version of unstable has unmet dependencies:

bugs:~# apt-get install locales
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.

Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies:
  locales: Depends: glibc-2.3.1-16
E: Sorry, broken packages

Any ideas?
