 Ando haciendo un paquete Debian para Potato de un programa (Sylpheed) que

 apt-get install cvs-buildpackage

lo tenía instalado, pero no soy capaz de hacer que funcione. El fuente del CVS 
queda en un

cvs-buildpackage espera que el directorio este en formato programa-versión

contaba:

Otra cosa distinta es añadir y activar un módulo para que apache interprete 
Java, para las
JSP y los Servlets. Los servlets son como los applets pero que se ejecutan en 
el lado del
servidor, es decir, del apache. Por tanto, cuando accedes a 
'http://localhost/Prueba.jsp',
es apache quien procesa el servlet y manda la salida por el puerto 80 hacia el 
cliente.

 Parecido a como hace con los CGIs, no?


No sé si me explico o te lío más. En cualquier caso no dudes volver a 
preguntar si es
necesario.

 Sí, ya  lo he pillado cuando  vi que el melange  constaba de un
 servidor  y  un  cliente  en  java. Entonces  tuve  claro  todo  el
 funcionamiento del sistema.

Hmmm ... yo diría que has hecho un update-modules, pero no un depmod -a ...

explico:

El fichero /etc/modules.conf se *debe* de construir ejecutando (como root)

Este comando lo que hace es leer todos los ficheros que hay en /etc/modutils y 
construir el
nuevo modules.conf, creando una copia de seguridad con el nombre 
modules.conf.old. Por otra
parte depmod -a lo que hace es generar las dependencias entre los módulos que 
tienes
compilados del kernel (para saber que módulos han de cargarse antes que otros 
para que estos
otros puedan funcionar) y genera un fichero llamado modules.dep en
/lib/modules/kernel_con_el_que_arrancas/. ¿Has compilado recientemente el

Es un programa enlazado estáticamente que se encuentra en /lib y  carga
las librerías dinámicas de los programas al arrancarlos, tal vez ese 
mathlab que tienes sea para otro sistema operativo e intente ejecutar un

Convertir datos xmcd de Slink

2000-09-27 Thread Juan C. Amengual
Hola,

para escuchar música del CD uso el xmcd (¡genial! aprovecho para decir
:). Ya lo usaba en Slink. Hace un par de semanas que me actualicé a
potato y resulta que ahora la base de datos está en /var/lib/xmcd/discog
y además guarda la info de los CDs en formato html. La vieja (ha
pasado año y pico desde que instalé Slink ... ¡imaginad!) está en
/var/lib/cddb/ organizada en las mismas categorías pero ...

... si tenía un CD con id 5f0d9f09 pongamos por caso, en categoría
rock, resulta que en /var/lib/cddb/rock aparecía un fichero llamado
5f0d9f09 en formato texto. Ahora crea un directorio con ese mismo nombre
en /var/lib/xmcd/discog/rock/ con un fichero dentro llamado index.html
en formato HTML (obviously). ¿Qué puedo hacer para convertir mi vieja
base de datos a la nueva? Supongo que puedo escribir en
/var/lib/xmcd/discog puesto que pertenezco al grupo audio. Bueno, si
algún fan del xmcd me puede ayudar ... ¡bienvenido sea! Gracias.

Resetear procesos y perifericos

2000-09-27 Thread Roberto Meyer
Hola,

Quisiera saber cual es la forma mas efectiva de matar un proceso y
resetear hardware (no vale apagar server, ok?) :-P

Proceso: ejecute 'mt -f /dev/st0 erase' a fin de borrar una cinta DAT SCSI
12/24GB y el proceso quedo colgado y 'duro de matar'.  kill -9 y otras
artima~as no funcionaron! - hice trampa, shutdown... (luego de 1,5hs de
intentarlo!)
Un camino: especificar el tama~o en bloques de la cinta solucionaria esto?
Espero probarlo pronto.

Perifericos: ya mas de una vez hemos colgado modems internos, grabadoras
de
CD, etc. y muchas veces no hay kill que aguante: el modem se pego porque
le hicieron un poff apenas arrancado pon o la grabadora de CD quemo y no
para mas.  Algunas veces ha funcionado resetear el bus con cdrecord, pero
en el caso de la cinta no encontre manera alguna.

Gracias por vuestro tiempo,

 Simplemente con fdisk, eliminas las dos swap y creas una sola

 No pero la eliminacion de las particiones deberias hacerlo desde MS-DOS para 
 que no tengas nada en la swap
 
  Como me recomendais hacerlo? O con que otro programa?
 
 
 Yo he utilizado fips (está en el CD-1 de la DEBIAN) bajo MS-DOS
 
 coger del final, pero yo personalmente sólo he hecho
 eso con Windows... No sé con linux qué resultados dará...
  
 Yo lo he hecho desde MS-DOS con el fips y va bien, pero no creo que se pueda 
 cojer de la parte del principio. De hecho primero hay que defragmentar el 
 disco para que todos los datos pasen delante.
 
 quizá podrias añadir la swap a la ext2 y despues una vez que tienes una sola 
 particion (Ojo, no se si esto se tragaría tus datos) quitarla del final
 
 
 Hmm... Tal y como lo tienes yo lo que haría sería quitarle espacio a
 Windows (al final) y tener dos particiones de swap, una en cada disco
 
 ¿Que Tal tener una sola particion SWAP en /dev/hdb?
  
 Además, lei yo en algún sitio que, en sistemas con mucha carga, es mejor
 tener dos swap en discos distintos. Parece que va más rápido.
 
 Va mas rápido si se tiene el swap en un disco que no sea el del sistema 
 porque puede escribir o leer en ambos al tiempo. en cambio si están en el 
 mismo disco mientras lee o escribe para el sistema no puede hacerlo en swap.
 
Bueno, lo que voy a hacer ya lo he expplicado en el mensaje que acabo de
enviar, pero me gustaria saber que es mejor:
· una particion swap grande en el disco de win (como de grande?)
· dos particiones, una en el disco de win y otra en el de linux
· una sola swap grande en linux (me parece que no)
· y finalmente, serviria de algo poner mas de una swap en cada disco en
lugar de una sola? (lo pregunto por mera curiosidad, aunque supongo que
esto mermara el rendimiento del sistema por tener que repartir la
informacion en mas de una particion aunque sea del mismo disco)

Habia un programa para quitar de win y separar en una particion nueva, no?
Como se llama y de donde lo bajo (mis cds de debian ahora los tiene un
amigo que no se cuando volvere a ver, aunque pronto tendre los de potato)?

Luego supongo que hay que usar el fdisk de linux y le pongo la etiqueta de
swap a la nueva particion.

Luego, como activo la nueva particion? Era algo asi como mkswap
nosequeopciones y despues swapon device, verdad?

Finalmente, si mi fstab es asi:
/dev/hda1   noneswapsw  0   0
le pongo lo mismo debajo pero con la nueva particion.

tras decirme que tengo correo no hace nada mas. Esto es lo que obtengo si hago 
fetchmail -v:

Cuando tras recoger el correo ejecuto mutt o elm o cualquier otro, la 
respuesta siempre es la misma: No mail :(
Con el netscape no tengo ningún problema para enviar y recibir el correo, pero 
me gustaría hacerlo desde modo texto, ¿qué puede ir mal?

Para asegurarte de que no te borra los mensajes del servidor mientras no
estes seguro de que el sistema funciona, edita el ~/.fetchmailrc y en la
entrada de la cuenta que estas interrogando, añade al final keep, para
que no los borre.

Por otra parte, el dialogo que transcribes no deja lugar a dudas de que
se le ordena al servidor pop que borre el mensaje y, mas aun, el
servidor responde como si lo hubiera borrado. ¿Como sabes que no lo ha
hecho?

Es posible que la entrega local se haya realizado, pues fetchmail, en
condiciones corrientes, no ordena borrar un mensaje si no ha sido
entregado localmente de forma satisfactoria. En este caso, quienes
podrian ayudarte son los que conocen exim y alguno de ellos quiza no lea
tus mensajes porque en la cabecera solo mencionas fetchmail. Prueba a
que aparezca tambien exim.

Ademas, vendria bien saber el contenido del ~/.fetchmailrc del usuario
que lo ejecuta fetchmail.

Siento no poder ayudarte mas, pero no desesperes, que al final las cosas
acaban andando y uno, en el camino ha aprendido un monton.

Acentos en Netscape

Hola a todos.

Pues eso, que soy usuario compulsivo de acentos y me gustaria usarlos en
el correo y mi Netscape no los traga.

Ya se que hay quien piensa que no se deben usar estas cosas en el
correo, pero yo no soy de la misma opinion. Asi como no veo razones para
utilizar formateos extraños (HTML,p.e.), existiendo la posibilidad de
adjuntar lo que a uno le de la gana, si creo que debe hacerse un
esfuerzo por que cada uno pueda escribir en su propia lengua. Me gustan
mucho los ordenatas, pero hay que someterlos, no entregarse a ellos.

compiling epic100 support into the kernel

2000-09-27 Thread adam.edgar
Im trying to recompile my kernel but from 'menuconfig' I can not find the
correct driver for my smc epic100. The epic100.c file is available under
drivers/net/ but it does not seem to show in the 10/100 section of
'menuconfig'. Could it possibly be under a different name? Im using 2.2.17
and have it working a module currently but id like to have it simply
compiled in. Any suggestions?
Thanks,

 The first three numbers are the average load over the past 1, 5, and
 15 minutes, as is reported by 'uptime' and what not.  3/56 means
 that three processes are currently running, out of 56 total.  959 is 
 the pid of the last process to run, here corresponding to a 'cat'

Right.  But those are *average* values.  I'd like to be able to read

problem with sftp in Gftp

2000-09-27 Thread Michael Smith
I'm having problems using sftp and gftp.  I can download one file, and
then the system behaves like sftp doesn't send back a signal that it's
done, so gftp says that the transfer is at 100%, but still in progress.
I'm using woody (development debian) openssh 2.2.0p1, sftp 0.9.5, and
gftp2.0.7b(the most current debian packages).  It's one of the coolest
systems that I use at work, and almost stuns my wee little brain with
its potential, I just don't know which program is at fault.  Has anybody
else had similar effects?

BTW, sftp works great from the command line, so that functions.  I have
ideas that it might just be somewhere with how the three talk to each
other.

Just something to chew on for awhile

New to Debian, boot problems

2000-09-27 Thread Willy Lee
Hello all,

I'm new to Debian, used to use RedHat.  I installed Debian potato (CD
from LSL) along with a new hard drive (installed as 2nd (slave) IDE)
recently, and I made the mistake of placing all of Debian, including
the root partition, on the 2nd drive.  Now, unfortunately, LILO won't
boot to the slave drive.  I have to boot from the boot floppy I
thankfully didn't skip making during the install.

I would strongly prefer to be able to boot from the hard drive, using
LILO to manage booting Debian and a legacy OS.  I would prefer to not
reinstall from the CDs, since I would rather not have to configure
pnp, X, etc. again.

The only other idea I have is to make an ext2 partition on hda, make
it bootable, copy all the files that would be in a root partition
over, then make lilo boot from there.  I already have ext2 partitions
on hda, left over from a RedHat install.  My Debian install on hdb
consists of /, /usr, and /home partitions.

How workable does this sound?  Has anyone else done something like
this?  Am I completely insane or missing something obvious?

Yours in Debian,

=wl

Apples and unices.  System load and CPU usage are not the same thing.  They
tend to be correlated, but certain circumstances, such as an I/O-intensive
process, can drive system load up while CPU usage stays near 0.  System load
is just that:  _system_ load.  There's more to the system than just a CPU.

Unfortunately, when I poked around in /proc, I failed to find anywhere to
read CPU usage there.  Hopefully, though, someone else will see this, realize
that load (as in load average) isn't actually what you're looking for, and
point you in the right direction.  If you really get desperate, you can look
at the source for top and see where it gets its CPU usage information from.

Yeah, I never take a libc upgrade on its first day out. Just about
EVERYTHING depends on it and sometimes other packages must be rebuilt with
the new libc to function properly and it takes a few days for these
packages to catch up. Since unstable is not designed to be a production
release, there is no (nor should there be any) requirement to submit
packages to the archive in any particular order.

The short answer is that this is what you have to live with when using the
latest development snapshots (to borrow a BSD term). It you are going to
live in unstable, it is to your advantage to read debian-devel.

 If you suggest to make again partition I shall do according to your advise.

If you want LILO to boot multiple installations of Linux, it has to be
able to find the kernels for each one when you install it.

I have a similar situation, with Debian, Redhat and Slackware all living
on the same computer.

You only need to install LILO from one of the linux partitions. From
that partition, you then mount each of the other linux partitions
somewhere. I install lilo from my RedHat partition, and mount my debian
partiton at /mnt/deb and the slackware partition at /mnt/slack.

Next, you have 2 choices.

choice 1: you can copy the kernel files from the other linux partitions
to your lilo one, put the correct paths to them into your boot manager
configuration (or lilo.conf if you prefer to do it yourself), run
lilo... and that's that. Every time you upgrade a kernel you have to
repeat the procedure, copying the new kernel to the lilo-installed linux
partition and re-running lilo.

choice 2 (I did this): instead of copying the kernels, make a symlink to
them *from the path where the kernels would be if you were to boot up
into that installation*.
For example: I install lilo in my redhat partition. In my debian
partition, the kernel is /boot/linux-2.2.16. When redhat is running, I
have debian mounted in /mnt/deb, so the kernel file is found in
/mnt/deb/boot/linux-2.2.16 . I then make a symlink in redhat from
/boot/linux-2.2.16 to /mnt/deb/boot/linux-2.2.16, ie:

# cd /boot
# ln -s /mnt/deb/boot/linux-2.2.16 .

I do the same for the slackware partition kernel. Then I run lilo, after
making sure that I have my lilo configuration correct. It works!

Re: SB live SMP drivers?

2000-09-27 Thread ferret

You seem to have the right idea with #1 below. Compiling the modules seems
to be a little tricky for some people, so I'll tell you how I handle it.

Install the alsa-source and other alsa debs. You'll have an
'alsa-driver.tar.gz' file in /usr/src that you'll have to extract yourself
(I believe it's done because upgrading the source in-place will likely
break it)

Now go into your kernel source tree (kernel-source-2.2.17?), run the
config (make menuconfig or make xconfig) and make sure you have sound
support marked as module, and none of the card-specific stuff selected.
Save your kernel config and then run:
make-kpkg clean
make-kpkg modules-clean
make-kpkg [--revision=revision#] configure
make-kpkg modules
make-kpkg kernel-image

And the alsa drivers build will complain if you don't have pgp installed,
but I just ignore that.

No idea if the live will be happy, but I'm running an awe64 and a sb16 on
an SMP machine.

Hope this helps.

 1)  They're replying to the list, rather than to the x-envelope

 virus warnings?

Well, NOTHING is going to send anything to any x- header address. They
MIGHT send something to an Errors-To: header but SHOULD send to the
envelpe sender (bounce-debian-user..blahblahblah). Seems Microsoft is
inspecting the message body looking at From: or Reply-To: headers whis is
the WRONG THING TO DO.

If you are going to bounce a message, send it to the envelope sender or
the Errors-To: address.

Re: lilo and BeOS

2000-09-27 Thread hotpop
 Does anyone know how to set up lilo to launch BeOS. Note win98
  will have to boot from same HD. Do Both win98 and Be need to be on
  bootable partitions?

There is a (free!) version of BeOS that doesn't even have to be on
a partition. It's just a Windows executable that boots BeOS. I'm not
sure wheter a similar executable is also available for Linux.

However, you might want the 'real' BeOS...

libc6 problem after apt-get

2000-09-27 Thread Joel Dinel
After doing a routine apt-get dist-upgrade, I started having mail problems. 
When I do a simple mail somebody and I try to send the email , this is what I 
get :

send-mail: /usr/lib/libdb.so.2: no version information available (required by 
send-mail)

The email eventually goes through, but it's annyin as hell and it makes PINE 
try to send the email forever.

I dit an apt-get remove and apt-get install of libc6, still not working.

Any clues ?

Thanks !



Re: New to Debian, boot problems

2000-09-27 Thread Tom Pfeifer
Booting Debian (or any Linux) from the 2nd drive with Lilo is not a
problem. I'm booting from the 3rd drive. It should be just a matter of
getting /etc/lilo.conf set up right, and then reinstalling Lilo by
running the 'lilo' command as root.

Here's a basic template for /etc/lilo.conf for what you want to do:

boot=/dev/hda  (install Lilo to MBR of master drive)
install=/boot/boot.b
map=/boot/map
prompt (display Lilo prompt on boot)
timeout=100(boot default after 10 seconds if no keybd input)
default=debian (set default OS )
image=/path/to/your/kernel
  label=debian
  root=/dev/hdb?   (your root partition such as /dev/hdb1)
  read-only(mount root read only until fsck runs - standard)
other=/dev/hda?(location of your other OS such as /dev/hda1)
  label=legacy

See 'man lilo' and /usr/share/doc/lilo/Manual.txt for more details on
Lilo.

 Hello all,
 
 I'm new to Debian, used to use RedHat.  I installed Debian potato (CD
 from LSL) along with a new hard drive (installed as 2nd (slave) IDE)
 recently, and I made the mistake of placing all of Debian, including
 the root partition, on the 2nd drive.  Now, unfortunately, LILO won't
 boot to the slave drive.  I have to boot from the boot floppy I
 thankfully didn't skip making during the install.
 
 I would strongly prefer to be able to boot from the hard drive, using
 LILO to manage booting Debian and a legacy OS.  I would prefer to not
 reinstall from the CDs, since I would rather not have to configure
 pnp, X, etc. again.
 
 The only other idea I have is to make an ext2 partition on hda, make
 it bootable, copy all the files that would be in a root partition
 over, then make lilo boot from there.  I already have ext2 partitions
 on hda, left over from a RedHat install.  My Debian install on hdb
 consists of /, /usr, and /home partitions.
 
 How workable does this sound?  Has anyone else done something like
 this?  Am I completely insane or missing something obvious?
 
 Yours in Debian,

Re: Helix Icons

2000-09-27 Thread Kjetil Ødegaard
* Joel Dinel [EMAIL PROTECTED]

 How can you go about changing the color of the text for the icons in Helix
 gnome ? Right now, it's black text on a gray background. I'd like white
 text with no background (shaped text). I know where to set the shaped text
 (in the gnome file manager). but I can't seem to change the color to
 something else than black. It's a problem, because my background is black
 as well and I can't see the icons :)

There's actually no configuration option for this; you will have to add
this manually to your .gtkrc:


style gnome-desktop-icon {
fg[NORMAL] = { 1.0, 1.0, 1.0 }
bg[NORMAL] = { 0.0, 0.0, 0.0 }
}

widget_class *DesktopIcon* style gnome-desktop-icon


This sets the foreground color to white and background to black (if you
use `Shaped text' the second line won't make any difference).

Just remember that if you change GTK+--themes, your .gtkrc file might be
over-written.

Re: lp module in Debian 2.2

2000-09-27 Thread Daniel Reuter
Hello there,

first, check that the parport and the parport_pc modules are loaded (lsmod
as root, see 'man lsmod'). If not load them (insmod). Perhaps you have to
give the parameters of your parallel port to parport_pc, e.g. issue
something like:
insmod parport_pc io=0x378 irq=7
(change io and irq to the values which are right for your system)
If everything is fine there, the lp-module should load smoothly, e.g.
issue:
insmod lp
If there are error-messages during this process, it would be helpful, if
you could send them to the list.
Regards,
Daniel

Re: libc6 problem after apt-get

the following thing worked for me (tk told me the whole thing on #debian):

tk I downgraded the libc in the following order:
libdb2_2.4.14-2.7.7.1.c.deb, libc6*.deb locales_2.1.3-13_i386.deb, all the
files need to be downloaded locally. If apt/dpkg complains about ldconfig,
you need to download ldso_1.9.11-9.deb, do dpkg -x ldso*.deb foo  cp
foo/sbin/ldconfig.new /sbin/ and retry
---

Install the downloaded .deb files with
dpkg -i

you should be able to find most of files on
ftp://security.debian.org/debian-security/dists/potato/updates/main/
otherwise search in potato.

hope this helps!

new kernel and apt-get

2000-09-27 Thread mheyes
After reading the man page on make-kpkg, I configured and recompiled a new
kernel (2.2.17) using make-kpkg -revision Custom.5 kernel_image. This
produced the expected debian kernel package that installed correctly.
However, everytime I do an apt-get upgrade (woody) I end up getting the
kernel-image-2.2.17 1:2.2.17-1 package with everything else.

Is there another setting I need to change besides using make-kpkg to set
the revision level?

 you can also use (v)fat in combination with tar, but that will give

Unless you mount the floppy with the 'quiet' option.

try this instead:

the 3: adds an epoch to your package which is greater then the epoch

Updated check-debian-cd

2000-09-27 Thread Francesco Potorti`
I made an update to my check-debian-cd script.  Now it knows about every
Debian CD in the r0 and 0a  series, and about the binary i386 slink CDs.
It also emits different return  codes depending on the failure mode, and
can usefully  be used to  check for  a whole series  of iso images  in a
single run.

I  suggest  it to  be  added  to the  pseudo-image  toolkit,  and to  be
mentioned in the FAQ as an easy way of checking a CD after having burned
it.  To check any Debian CD, just do:
  check-debian-cd
it will automatically recognise the CD and check the MD5 hash.

To check a series of images:
  check-debian-cd *.iso

It can also be run in quiet mode from scripts.

Please note that I do not subscribe to either debian-cd or debian-user.

exim or smail?

2000-09-27 Thread Anthony Campbell
Why does Debian install exim by default? I've always had slight
difficulties with configuring it, whereas smail always works for me
faultlessly.

I used exim at first when I upgraded to potato but now that smail has
reappeared in woody I've gone back to it with some relief.

Anyone else had a similar experience?

Anthony

Re: New to Debian, boot problems

2000-09-27 Thread David Wright
Quoting Willy Lee ([EMAIL PROTECTED]):
 I'm new to Debian, used to use RedHat.  I installed Debian potato (CD
 from LSL) along with a new hard drive (installed as 2nd (slave) IDE)
 recently, and I made the mistake of placing all of Debian, including
 the root partition, on the 2nd drive.  Now, unfortunately, LILO won't
 boot to the slave drive.  I have to boot from the boot floppy I
 thankfully didn't skip making during the install.
 
 I would strongly prefer to be able to boot from the hard drive, using
 LILO to manage booting Debian and a legacy OS.  I would prefer to not
 reinstall from the CDs, since I would rather not have to configure
 pnp, X, etc. again.
 
 The only other idea I have is to make an ext2 partition on hda, make
 it bootable, copy all the files that would be in a root partition
 over, then make lilo boot from there.  I already have ext2 partitions
 on hda, left over from a RedHat install.  My Debian install on hdb
 consists of /, /usr, and /home partitions.

Only a few files have to be accessible to lilo, and I think they're
all in /boot (as long as you install your kernel there too).

There's no reason why /boot can't be a symlink to anywhere accessible
on hda (= 1023 cylinders), even if it's not an ext2 partition
(which you happen to have). What *is* important is that you rerun lilo
if you move any of these critical files (e.g. if they were in a DOS
partition which you defragged).

Cheers,

Re: New to Debian, boot problems

2000-09-27 Thread David Wright
Quoting Tom Pfeifer ([EMAIL PROTECTED]):
 Booting Debian (or any Linux) from the 2nd drive with Lilo is not a
 problem. I'm booting from the 3rd drive. It should be just a matter of
 getting /etc/lilo.conf set up right, and then reinstalling Lilo by
 running the 'lilo' command as root.

I think there may be a BIOS issue here rather than a linux one.

 Here's a basic template for /etc/lilo.conf for what you want to do:
 
 boot=/dev/hda  (install Lilo to MBR of master drive)
 install=/boot/boot.b
 map=/boot/map

The BIOS has to be able to get at these files before linux gets a look-in.

Cheers,

Re: new kernel and apt-get

 However, everytime I do an apt-get upgrade (woody) I end up getting the
 kernel-image-2.2.17 1:2.2.17-1 package with everything else.

 Is there another setting I need to change besides using make-kpkg to set
 the revision level?

How you set the revision level is answered in the other follow up. But,
IMHO it's a more elegant way to set _your_ kernel-* packages on hold
(You can do this in dselect with '='). Then, these packages wont get
upgraded unless you force it.

Re: upgraded libc6 and libc6 and broke my system (Woody)

 The problem appears to be that the new libc is not compatible with the old
 libdb2.  You might try upgrading libdb2.

That was the first thing I tried in order to fix things, but for some reason,
ldconfig disappeared when I upgraded libc6.

Thanks for reminding me; I had forgotten to attempt to upgrade libdb2 after I
installed a new copy of ldconfig.
