Con esa tarjeta y XFree 3.3.6 tengo problemas de refresco de pantalla con Gnome + WindowMaker (curiosamente con fvwm95 a pelo no parecen manifestarse). ¿Alguna idea? Hazte un Modeline a medida. Mira el mio: Modeline 1024x768 93 1024 1064 1200 1368 768 771 777 806 +hsync +vsync y el monitor me dice: H:67.04KHz V:84.06Hz :-) Conviene leerse el `/usr/doc/HOWTO/XFree86-Video-Timings-HOWTO.html' Para hacerlo me fui a W$ y le dije que me configurase la targeta/monitor en valores óptimos. Luego miro los valores que me ofrece el monitor (que por suerte me los canta en pantalla) e intento imitarlo retocando un Modeline desde `xvidtune'. Me estoy liando. Símplemente entras en Xwindow, arrancas el `xvidtune', activas el auto, y vas modificando los parámetros y retocando desde los mandos del monitor, hasta que consigas llenar la pantalla sin distorsión. Verás que lo que va cambiando son precisamente las frecuencias H/V. Y como yo _sabía_ por W$ que podía llegar a 68/85, pues si el Modeline a partir del cual hacía las modificaciones no me permitía alcanzar esos valores, salía de las X y subía el DotClock en ese Modeline en `/etc/X11/XF86Config', al azar. A veces no me arrancaba, porque la targeta no lo soportaba, pero al final, probando, di con el `93', y el resto de los valores salieron a partir de ese modeline, modificándolo con el `xvidtune'. Cuando lo tienes a tu gusto, pulsas en el `xvidtune' show, y en el Xterm desde donde lo has lanzado aparece el modeline que luego tienes que poner en el `/etc/X11/XF86Config'. Saludos.

Academia linuxera y su impresora
Hola! Estoy trabajando en un centro de Estudios de Santa Coloma de Gramanet que desde hace unos meses se ha apuntado al carro de Linux a cargo de una Citius Slink. Actualmente el servidor Linux se está utilizando para labores de router (IPmasq) y Proxy (Squid). Además se hace uso de él tambien para poder hacer prácticas de servicios de internet a través de la intranet montada. El caso es que nos gustaría poder hacer que un segundo servidor linux gestione espacios de disco duro para los alumnos (Samba y a bailar) y sirva tambien como un spool de impresión para una impresora. En este último punto es donde hay problemas. El caso es que en la red igual- igual montada a golpe de Win98 hay una Epson Stylus400 que da más problemas que el copón. Impresiones que se cortan cuando más de usuario manda a imprimir a la vez, etc... Tenemos pensado cambiarla porque eso para red... bueno :) El caso es que querríamos una impresión de chorro a tinta en color que funcione perfectamente tanto en red como en Linux y que sea capaz de atender a un grupo de trabajo de unas 30 personas que imprimen ocasionalmente (como mucho habrían 3 trabajos simultaneos en cola). ¿Alguna recomendación? ¿Algún requerimiento? gracias :) -- M.

Either way, the system is merrily checking in all your edited files in your favourite library before you were ready to do so. There is a way to undo this, but be warned, it is tedious if numerous files are involved; the idea is to merge the differences between two revisions of a file into a working copy in your directory. The remedy - please note that you need to be ABSOLUTELY sure you type the commands correctly or you will merely compound the problem: * cvs update -j 1.5 -j 1.4 filename.C * cvs commit -m ``Undid previous commit'' filename.C This removes all changes made between revision 1.4 and 1.5 NOTE: 1. The order of the revisions!!! Highest number comes first. 2. If you forget to specify a filename you will be in a worse mess than before - the revision numbers will probably be very different between the various files making up a module and if you don't tell it which file to work on, cvs will do the merge on EVERY file. Not pretty. Probably best to play it safe and do the files one by one (I warned you it was tedious). 3. Remember to cvs commit your changes afterwards - carefully, this time!

unresolved symbols
I can't figure out what the problem is with my sg.o module. At this point I have running kernel 2.2.13 with sg.o fine, but without pon; and kernel 2.2.14 with pon, but without sg.o. Everytime I insmod sg I get bunches of unresolved symbols (I need it to roast cds). So, if I pon don't roast, and if I roast don't pon. The reason could be in the fact that I don't know how to do some part of the kernel installation right, because 2.2.13 I downloaded as image from greenbush.com (with scsi support) and the other I installed myself. Please help. Thanx.

PERL or grep help pls (search replace)
Hi,
Re your 1 files.
Here is a quick answer in two parts
Part 1 - for an individual file, you can search and replace text by
cat filename |perl -e 'while () { $_=~
s/http://209.155.163.97/smile.gif/http://www.cproda.com/smile.gif/g;
print $_; }'
(All on one line)
Part 2. Now you need to pump all your files through it. If you really
have 1 files then a foreach or similar loop wont work, because the
line will be too long. (If you were exaggerating, and only have 100 or
so then there are shell commands that will loop over all the files. Take
a look at the foreach command under csh or tcsh. There is a similar
command under bash, but I forget what it is called. - very handy stuff)
When I have that many files to process, I use awk to write a script that
will then process them. Like so:
first make a place to stick all the new files
mkdir newfiles
Now write a little script...
ls | awk '{printf( cat %s | perl -e '''while () { $_=~
s/http://209.155.163.97/smile.gif/http://www.cproda.com/smile.gif/g;
print $_; }'' newfiles/%s\n,$1,$1);}' script.sh
Now run the script...
source script.sh
IMPORTANT NOTE: I just cranked this out off the cuff, tried it on a
little test file and it seemed to work. I may not - probably don't -
have it exactly right, but you should be able to take it from here.
Make a backup, and test before trusting it.
Clearly I spend way too much of my life frigging around in the shell...
You may find it easier to put the perl commands in a file, and the awk
commands in a file and then get them right there, rather than slapping
it out on a command line, escaped quotes and all.
Cheers
Rupert

When I renamed public_html to Html (which I used to use for years without any problems) it does not work at all, does not matter if the directory is symlinked or not. hrm, hard to say without actually looking, but that sounds like a permissions problem.

dselect deinstalled all software!!!
Hi, A friend of mine has emailed me in panic, saying that dselect has just deinstalled all the software on his debian laptop. He is currently travelling in the US (he and I are from Australia) and he is in a bit of a panic. I am trying to acertain precisely what happened but I suspect it was something like the following: He did have slink installed, but it sounds like he did a apt-get dist-upgrade to potato (it's not entirely clear to me whether he was successful in this --- I'm checking with him). He then went into dselect to (using his own words) install and configure the new packages. He goes on to write: Then I did remove in dselect and it seems to have removed everything!!! I don't have my emergency disc with me. When I start the machine the letters LI come on the screen and then nothing more happens. My guess is that he didn't do an Update within dselect before choosing Remove, and dselect, not recognising any of the new packages, decided to remove them all. Does this sound right? Or does any one have any alternative explanations? In the meantime, I'm trying to advise him from afar. I am thinking he needs to get a rescue disk from somewhere, which should allow him to boot and then rerun apt-get dist-upgrade. Does this sound right? Any other suggestions?

Re: Mutt questions (Was: Looking for a good mail program)
Thing is there is an unneeded step in there. Exim doesn't need a delivery agent (procmail) not does it need a filter program (procmail) since both are build in. One could just use Exim for both of those so the path would be fetchmail - exim - mutt. or the other way around, fetchmail doesn't need exim and can deliver directly to procmail (this is what i do). i prefer this because then i don't need to run an mta on my laptop. my ~/.fetchmailrc looks like this: heyzeus(larry)$ cat ~/.fetchmailrc set daemon 60 poll localhost port 1100 protocol pop3 uidl username larry password MyPass mda /usr/bin/procmail -d larry preconnect ssh -C -f -L 1100:mailhost:110 sshhost 'sleep 9' this also tunnels through ssh which is nice cause you don't send your password in plain text, but it works better if you have passwordless ssh setup. adam.

(I have suggested the one at http://http.us.debian.org/debian/dists/frozen/main/disks-i386/current/images-1. 44/rescue.bin) Then boot from it, and run dselect.

How much free space does apt need in /var?
Hi, First the question: how much free space in /var do you think I need for apt-get upgrades? I ask because: On my first try with apt-get, I got : E: Sorry, you don't have enough free space in /var/cache/apt/archives I have a small disk, only 814 Mb, so /var got only 50 Mb. and only 13 Mb of /var are currently free. It is all Debian and the current install takes up 273 Mb out of 500 Mb in /usr so I don't think it's a very large install. /home still has about 35Mb available. This is what happened: 1st I did # apt-get update and that went ok then I did # apt-get upgrade and got the /var doesn't have enough free space error then I tried # apt-get deselect-upgrade hoping that would need less but I got the same error. If I knew about how much free space apt-get might need, I could make allowances. If apt can show that information, I haven't found where it does yet.. My immediate concern is finishing the upgrade. Later, I would like to add all the non-us packages, and a few of the contrib and non-free ones too, so any guess on a good amount for that afterthe upgrde would help also. Hope I've supplied enough information. Any help would be appreciated. I like Debian very much so far. Thanks, montefin SYSTEM: 486DX 66, 24Mb RAM, 814Mb HDD [ / = 50Mb, /usr = 514Mb, /home = 150Mb, /var = 50Mb, swap = 50Mb]
Re: dselect deinstalled all software!!!
Mark Phillips wrote: Hi, A friend of mine has emailed me in panic, saying that dselect has just deinstalled all the software on his debian laptop. He is currently travelling in the US (he and I are from Australia) and he is in a bit of a panic. I am trying to acertain precisely what happened but I suspect it was something like the following: He did have slink installed, but it sounds like he did a apt-get dist-upgrade to potato (it's not entirely clear to me whether he was successful in this --- I'm checking with him). He then went into dselect to (using his own words) install and configure the new packages. He goes on to write: Then I did remove in dselect and it seems to have removed everything!!! I don't have my emergency disc with me. When I start the machine the letters LI come on the screen and then nothing more happens. My guess is that he didn't do an Update within dselect before choosing Remove, and dselect, not recognising any of the new packages, decided to remove them all. Does this sound right? Or does any one have any alternative explanations? In the meantime, I'm trying to advise him from afar. I am thinking he needs to get a rescue disk from somewhere, which should allow him to boot and then rerun apt-get dist-upgrade. Does this sound right? Any other suggestions? Also, please cc any replies directly to my email address as I am currently not subscribed to this list. Thanks for your help. Mark. It sounds to me like he installed a package which conflicted with some or much of the rest of his software and he didn't pay attention during Select, just hit return when it asked him what he wanted to do, and it solved the conflict by annihilating what he already had installed. Then he continued not paying attention when he hit Configure. Configure then broke something important. What to do? Hmm.

Well it looks (to my inexperienced eyes) like your default route is set up ok. That is , ppp0's destination is and your flags for the default route are the same as mine (I don't know what the flags mean though but this looks good). Can you ping your nameserver by number? check in your /etc/resolv.conf file for nameserver aa.bb.cc.dd entries. Ie, dump the file to screen like so: cat /etc/resolv.conf then try to ping those aa.bb.cc.dd numbers like so: ping aa.bb.cc.dd and see if ping is able to get through. Either way, if it does or doesn't get through, you've passed my level of expertise, and someone else will have to take it from here. But you might want to check the contents of certain files in your /etc directory: hosts host.conf * important for networking resolv.conf * important for networking hostname hosts.allow hosts.deny hosts.equiv mailname networks wvdial.conf (Again, I'm not an expert on the contents of these files, but if you don't understand something try to look it up in the man pages, or in /usr/doc or /usr/doc/HOWTO.

I read in the glx mailing list that the benchmarks for the G400 indicate that the Linux driver is faster that the one for winbugs. It seems that the Matrox people have been very helpful to the Linux developers. The Matrox G400 also has a lot of extra toys that are supported in XFree 4.0, like support for dual-head (two-monitors). Also very good support in the kernel for framebuffer (matroxfb).

I thought that I had to mount it first but it wont let me mount a cd disc. it gives error that it is an incompatible medium so I thought that might be the problem. then I tried to mount an ordinary cd (the debian cd) and it mounted perfectly so I assume this was'nt the problem.
hang trying to sync hardware clock ...
hey. i'm hoping someone knows the answer to this. i'm trying to do a fresh potato install and i've had this problem no matter what i try and do. i get to the point where i reboot off of the hard drive, everything boots up as normal until this point: Starting portmap daemon: portmap. Setting the System Clock using the Hardware Clock as reference... and then it hangs forever (i even left it over night and it never made it past this). i told it to set the hardware clock to GMT, am using the 2.2 features of ext2 and have a large ide drive (13.6 gb) which are the only things i've done differently from any other install. is this a known bug? any help appreciated, thanks. adam.

Thankyou for your time! Lachlan Robinson. Yes, Debian offers a number of different GUI environments. However the fundamental interface is text-based, and you will probably want to learn about it as well. It sounds as if you have very little Unix/Linux background.

Choosing private domain name
Hi, some time ago, I had a private domain name (in-bonn.de) for my stand-alone PC with dialup connection and one of the numeric IP-adddresses, which are reserved for this purpose. As some ftp servers on the net won't let me access them (among others the german CTAN, ftp.dante.de -- german ftpp admins seems to be more picky about this) because not finding my domain in DNS, so I changed my domain name to that of my university. ftp access worked since then. The problem was then, that I couldn't manage to configure any of the many MTAs (exim, sendmail, qmail) to accept mail for the domain uni-bonn.de. All of them wanted to see users with this domain name in their address as local, so the mail was rejected or vanished without even to show up in the spool. So which is the normal way to choose a local domain name for a stand alone PC? Any way to come out of this absurd situation? Thanks for your answers, joachim
Re: Linux only sees half my RAM
I don't know how, I once saw it happen. With a 2.0 all the ram was recognised and the system was stable, with a 2.2 only half was recognised and the system became instable if the ram was set on 128 with lilo (with a 2.3 all the recognised and stable, as far as you can call a 2.3 stable).

Re: Choosing private domain name
When I set up a small masqueraded private network, that is connected to Internet only by ppp link, I set up the domain for this network like 'whatever.loc'. Usually, I also build a DNS server, that is a master for whatever.loc, but also points to root servers on Internet. Sendmail is configured to relay whatever.loc domain, but when the queued messages are sent from it to 'real' SMTP server on Internet, the envelope address is rewritten to real one, i.e. instead of [EMAIL PROTECTED] the From: field will read [EMAIL PROTECTED] To do this, I wrote a set of rules for sendmail, but later I found, that this can be easilly done by masquerade_envelope macro in sendmail-m4.

Re: Partitioning
Quoting Chan Chee Seng ([EMAIL PROTECTED]): 1GB NTFS(for WinNT) 1GB Fat(for file sharing between NT and Linux) Seems a bit big (though obviously only you know how you're going to use it). Think about whether lots of stuff is going to sit there or whether it's just a staging post. 1GB ext2 (Debian Slink) which is broken down to 150MB / I use 32MB when the following four are broken out. It's 50% full, and 30% inodes in use (default inodes/size ratio). 150MB /var 100MB /home 40MB /tmp You could share these perhaps in one partition. var will be big when you install, but you won't have much in home at that time. the rest /usr Enough for all my slink machines. I don't know about my needs for potato. is there a better way to config the above? I know DUnix can configure the /var and /usr to be on the same partition(not soft link) is it possible to do it in debian? Create your / and /usr partitions in the usual way during installation, then (where foo (I use the hostname) is the attractive name for the mount point): Initialise linux partition /dev/XdXN (whatever you're up to) Mount point /foo (creates /target/foo). Switch to console 2 cd /target/foo mkdir var mkdir tmp mkdir home cd /target ln -s foo/var var ln -s foo/tmp tmp ln -s foo/home home Back to console 1 Partition sizes are a very individual matter, depending on the use for the machine.

Upgrading X (without buggering up desalect?)
Hello, I have a nice new 8MB Savage4 Pro. XFree 3.3.2 does not support it - I need a newer version of X. Seems Debian's getting a bit behind the times of late (? - well over a year since the last full release!) and there's no deb packages for newer X (for slink (2.1), that is, current stable). So, does this mean I have to upgrade X manually, and if so, will this screw up dselect? Hints appreciated, before I resort to other distros!

RE: Partitioning
1GB Fat(for file sharing between NT and Linux) remark: kernel 2.4 will support ntfs write access (even though still experimental, i think). so you would not need a share partition Is 2.4 supported in potato?(Meaning just download the kernel and recompile it) or it's going to be in woody only.. it's woody only. i'm planning to install potato (once it is stable) and then try to install a 2.4 kernel on it. i have no idea, how difficult this will be. Thanks for the recommandation.. but is the var having 150Mb too little? using dselect, access with apt.. I can't install stuffs bigger that the var size.. as it seems to first cache the stuff in the /var/cache and then install it. don't know ... at the moment i have no debian. on my system i mostly get along with 200M. or should I link /var to /usr/var ? really bad idea ... /usr is the most static data on the system, while /var is the most dynamic one. i have very often inconsistencies on /var after a crash, while never on /usr. it's kind of a risk to put /var on /usr. -- Hi!

You could simply download potato debian packages for x and install them using dpkg: dpkg -i package, however you might have to install more potato packages, because of dependencies with versions.
