Tłumaczenie - pytanie techniczne
Witam Jak podchodzić do sformułowań typu man czy GUI, starać się przetłumaczyć ( w przypadku GUI potrzebne byłoby nawet pełne rozwinięcie bo skrótu GIU raczej nikt od razu nie odcyfruje ;-) czy też pozostawić w oryginale?

Re: Scripting en Bash(maybe Off-topic)
Rusty: Los elementos de mi empresa me han puesto a dar un curso de Unix y hasta el momento ha ido todo bien.Los tios a los que les estoy dando el curso son nulos en Unix,pero son programadores en plataforma Win.Bueno hasta aqui todo normal pero ahora el ultimo dia del curso,o sea el Lunes que nos viene encima,tengo que darles 5 horas de Scripting en Bash y la verdad es que no tengo el tema como para darles todo ese tiempo.Me gustaria por favor que alguien me comentara si es tan amable donde prodria encontrar informacion al respecto en castellano con ejemplos y demas porque estoy hasta el gorro de leer en Ingles. Es curioso que en tal caso prefieras decir off topic en lugar de fuera de tema, que es como se expresaría esa misma idea en español, pero en fin ;-) [ Para tu tranquilidad, GNU bash *no* se sale del tema de la lista ]. Hay un libro muy interesante que habla entre otras cosas sobre programación en shell (en el shell de Bourne, esto es /bin/sh, que es el que se debería usar para ser portable). El libro se llama El entorno de programación Unix, y está en español. Los autores son Brian W. Kernighan y Rob Pike, y la editorial es Prentice Hall. No es por hacer publicidad, pero me parece un libro precioso. Espero que te sirva.

Ya está :-) A ver, esto viene en el XFree86-HOWTO: XF86Config may assume that your mouse device is /dev/mouse. If you find this doesn't work, you may need to link /dev/mouse to whatever /dev/ca[01] the mouse is on. If you find that XFree86 gives you a mouse busy error when gpm is running, you may need to link to /dev/ttyS[01] instead. Si te funciona en consola debería funcionar sin problemas en las X. Para ver si en consola te funciona, instala el paquete gpm y configura el ratón con gpmconfig. Además, recuerda que en Debian los /dev/ttyS* (imagino que tendrás tu ratón en /dev/ttyS0, que es el com1 de DOS) corresponden con los /dev/cua* de otras distros. Espero que sirva.

Pelo que entendo, o nosso amigo somente quis ressaltar que o LDP-BR é realmente um projeto de todas as dists e não um projeto Conectiva... não concorda? O fato de o coordenador ser usuário de slack mostra a isenção do LDP-BR Sim, concordo! Ao contrário desta lista que é específica para Debian, a LDP-BR não é propriedade de nenhuma distro, senão perde o valor!Creio eu A LDP-BR perde seu valor se for de uma única distro mas o Debian-BR perde o valor se for de todas =) É um paradoxo, mas é verdade! Nós estamos *assumidamente* trabalhando para fazer *em primeiro lugar* um sistema *totalmente livre* e universal, o que não bate com a vontade de todos, visto que a conectiva, por exemplo, tem um mercado específico... Nós estamos *assumidamente* trabalhando para que o Debian seja a escolha de mais e mais pessoas... o que significaria um tipo de competição com a CNC, por exemplo... mas como nós somos uma comunidade e não uma empresa, não vemos isso como competição, vemos como um tipo de mutualismo... (quando eu digo 'nós' eu quero me referir a 'o Debian-BR', já que não tenho competência para falar pelo Debian =)) Perfeito! Creio que é exatamente esta a idéia! E se pararmos de traduzir documentação específica do Debian, não é o LDP-BR que o vai fazer por nós, infelizmente... Mesmo que o LDP-BR queira ser totalmente universal ainda aparecem uns Conectiva Linux dentro dos HOWTOs vide: Nosso foco até agora eram as man pages! E, se eu ví, passou batido! De qualquer forma, ainda será decidido qual será a prioridade que virá! Mas em todo caso, eu gostaria que fossem retirada toda e qualquer menção a uma distro específica, a não ser que seja absolutamente essencial! Tipo característica básico do sistema de arquivos, ext e etc! Se a tradução tiver sido feita pela Conectiva, e seguindo-se os padrões de hoje, será mencionado apenas o tradutor e revisor ao final de cada arquivo. Mantendo-se, à risca, a originalidade do documento! Isto, sem dúvida alguma será revisto, entretanto, ao traduzirmos os HOWTO's por exemplo, pegaremos sempre, as últimas versões... que por sí mesmo eliminaria qualquer menção 'não adequada'. De qualquer forma, se foi instalada uma distribuição Red Hat ou Conectiva Linux, tem-se a opção de instalá-lo como um pacote. Algumas outras distribuições também incluem os binários do Samba. -- Samba-HOWTO é nosso propósito fazer com que o Debian tenha também sua documentação disponível, e por isso é que (isso era uma dúvida frequente anteriormente...) não podemos ser LDP-BR... nossos propósitos, embora sejam de colaboração, são totalmente distintos... O Debian tem problemas e soluções muito diferentes das normais... dhelp, dwww, modconf, update-* devem ser documentados.. e isso cabe a nós =) Concordo, mas não se esqueça que mesmo a LDP-BR (ou a LDP) é um movimento dos usuários... Podemos, independente da distro, estar interagindo... embora, como você disse existirem particularidades! Não entendam isso errado... nós, os debianers, temos (tirando alguns usuários meio nervosinhos =)) grande consideração pelo que o LDP-BR faz, e com a CNC por ajudar nisso... embora todos saibamos que o projeto é uma coisa voluntária e não uma coisa *da* conectiva =) kov, para mim, isto está claro apesar de ter compreendido de forma errada a menção ao Slack... a minha preocupação no momento é Gnu/Linux e pronto!

Re: Novato pede ajuda
Oi Carlos, O método que voce procura pode ser feito através do arquivo /etc/syslog.conf, no final do arquivo existe um bloco: # NOTE: adjust the list below, or you'll go crazy if you have a reasonably # busy site.. # daemon.*;mail.*;\ news.crit;news.err;news.notice;\ *.=debug;*.=info;\ *.=notice;*.=warn |/dev/xconsole - Copie o bloco acima e coloque /dev/tty8 no lugar de /dev/xconsole (não elimine o símbolo de pipe |). Caso voce não use o xsysinfo ou outro utilitário de monitoração, você pode modificar o próprio bloco original (mas não é muito bom..). Só duas dicas: SOMENTE USE TABS QUANDO EDITAR O syslog.conf, ele não funciona com espaços e após modificar de o comando killall -hup syslogd. E as mensagens do syslog serão copiadas para o terminal /dev/tty8 []s Luiz Carlos wrote: Ola pessoal, eu sou novato no debian de gostaria de ser ajudado no seguinte sentido: quero fazer com que os logs de meu micro sejam direcionado para um determinado terminal de console.

Esta rede é para o meu aprendizado sobre redes, mas eu não tenho encontrado informações de como faze-lo, sou leigo no assunto e tenho curiosidade de saber como faze-la, tenho procurado pela internet informações sobre como fazer esta rede domestica ( achei numa revista sobre o assunto, mas lá está dizendo que no windows é mais fácil de configurar, eu achei que no linux deveria ser também) . Se alguém puder me informar ( ou alguma documentação) como fazer esta rede, serei grato. Sem Mais, um abraço a todos André Luís p.s.

If you have double f = 4;, and you compile 4 as a double-precision value rather than as an int (which would then require an immediate conversion), how could that possibly break a program? I wasn't really addressing the optimization question. You could easily be correct about that. I was addressing the definition of the assignment (=) operator. I didn't say it would break the program. Just possibly thwart the programmer's intention in a more compilcated case. Since the code is correct I would expect it to work whether the conversion was done at compile time or execute time.

Re: hard drive problems... misconfiguration?
As promised here's the summary of a weird day:
-drive mentioned in my earlier discussion checked out completely 100% good
after repair done by dlgdiag (dos) program from WD
-managed to reduce hda: irq timeout messages to 2-3 during the dselect
process; quite a nice time improvement too
-swapped ide cables - no change
-brought cables and HDD to an K6-2 500 on an AOpen mobo, HDD is hda and
CDROM is hdb - no irq messages, a perfect load!
Is it the Biostar mobo or is is the disk? I played with bios settings,
cables, and disks combinations all day.
At the end of the day, drive in question went belly-up. Nuts!
I took my remaining parts and built a machine (Biostar mobo and WD HDD) and
loaded another distro with 2.2.12 - no disk errors. I used dlgdiag on the
drive and found no problems.
I think I'll get an IBM HDD to replace the busted WD.
Is there any way that Debian could be at odds with the Biostar MoBo?
Should I just ignore those pesky messages? Where do those messages come
from? The kernel or some driver? Could it be a 2.2.19pre17 issue?

I'm pretty sure it'll work for you and you won't have to downgrade to 4.0.3 or do anything drastic. Moreover, mga_drv.o and mga_hal_drv.o from Matrox will still work.

I have triple-checked that I have the ipchains set up correctly ( ran a packet through the chains to ensure the chains weren't to blame), any ideas, I have checked the config of ssh all appears sweet, although I get this error when I even try to get the default page up in a browser on the remote.

Galeon (unstable): Cannot find a schema for galeon preferences (gconf)
I'm getting a dialog box with the following error when running Galeon after the latest unstable upgrade: Cannot find a schema for galeon preferences. Check your gconf setup, look at galeon FAQ for more information. Looking in the FAQ, I see: We provide a script in the Galeon source root directory to setup a basic gconf installation. You have to run it passing $sysconfdir as the first paramater. In most cases: ./setup-gconf-source /etc Expert mode --- 1. Edit the path file in the directory $sysconfdir/gconf/1. A basic configuration for the default backend would look like: xml:readonly:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.mandatory include $(HOME)/.gconf.path xml:readwrite:$(HOME)/.gconf xml:readonly:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults ...I don't find a setup-gconf-source file in the Galeon package. I'm sufficiently a non-GNOME user that I've no idea how to go about setting up a gconf schema (let alone what the damned things are). I did find /etc/gconf/schemas/galeon.schemas, but it doesn't appear to be doing the trick. Note it's listed in conffiles (below). Anyone got a fix for this?

messages log file
Hi, This may sound really stupid, however I cannot seem to locate anything about it anywhere. When I view the messages log file it is full of --MARK-- , what does this mean? I have never seen it on any other of the Linux boxes I have (running RH though). I am slowly trying to get to grips with Debian before I go swapping out all the RH boxes. Also any ideas on why I have ssh running can log in from my internal network, I have allowed the IP range from work access, I can scan the box from work it reports that the ports I have open are definitely open, yet I cannot connect (I even set up Apache to see if I could get a webpage, ie: some sort of connection happening between the box the remote) yet I still get connection refused by remote.. I have triple-checked that I have the ipchains set up correctly ( ran a packet through the chains to ensure the chains weren't to blame), any ideas, I have checked the config of ssh all appears sweet, although I get this error when I even try to get the default page up in a browser on the remote. I am suspicious of my ISP filtering the connections (although after speaking to them they tell me they don't), although wouldn't a std. nmap scan show my ports as closed or filtered if this is the case? Any help would be greatly appreciated. CraigW.

sqrt C function(clarification)
I'm sorry not to have provided more information in my first e-mail although
i'm very glad so many people responded to help, but i've done some more
testing:
specifically i'm getting 'prase error in tmp/x' where x is a long string of
characters that tends to change on every run of the complier (at least when
i'm compiling other programs). I've tried the following and gotten no errors
#include stdio.h
#include math.h
double num=16.0;

{
double sqrt(double num);
return(0);

the following warns me that 'function sqrt does not match global variable'
but still compiles
#include stdio.h

and this one just doesn't work at all giving the parse error previously

{
num = 16; /*i've also tried 16. and 16.0 here*/
double sqrt(double num);

I'm sorry I was not more clear with my first e-mail and hope this points out
the problem better. Also, how do I let gcc know that I want math.h to be an

Thanks a lot, Hi Antonio, you've taken a step in the right direction by compiling a kernel with modular/built-in support for all of the types of Ethernet drivers. What you need to realize is that the kernel doesn't automatically try to load of the modules. You need to use modprobe to load the modular driver that corresponds to the chipset on your Ethernet card. That CNet Pro200 is based on a Davicom chipset, which correponds to the dfme.o module, so try modprobe dfme and then issue dmesg to see what the kernel had to say about it.

I installed Linux Debian 2.2 r0 on my computer and I need solution for the problems below: 1) My video card is Trident Blade 3D PCI/AGP (IPC), so I installed the XF86_SVGA server but the computer often blocks when I 'startx'. I used to reinstall Debian. When it works, the only graphic mode that I had is the 320x200 with a very big police. 2) My network interface is a Realtek 8029 and I didn't find in 'modconf' a driver for it. 3) My modem is a 'Motorola SM56 PCI speakphone Modem #2' and was not detected.

Do not know the answer for getting -lm by default. You might try info gcc.
This will not be an issue with larger projects since one would use make:

Re: Re: OH NO! I can't login with any display-manager!!!
Hi Kent! I think it's not window-manager related. I tried different windowmanagers and it's all the same problem. The display manager tells me login failed (in kdm) or authentication failed (in gdm) everytime I try to login with the correct log-in and password. So the only way to get into KDE or something like that is to start X manually. I have also the blackbox and the enlightment installed. If I start X with startx, the blackbox is loaded as the default.

I installed newly Debian potato on my laptop and got the KDE 2.1.2 from kde.debian.net. Everything worked fine but one: I can't login with kdm. Everytime I try this, the login fails. But in textmode I can login without any problems. I think this is not a problem caused by kdm, because the same problem occured also if I try it with gdm or xdm. I tried it also with different times of new installations of the whole system. But now I have no more ideas what to do. I don't think that something is broken. The packages are all actual from the potato-servers. Could somebody give me a hint, please? I can only start my gui with startx. This should not be bad and is maybe sometimes better than the automized start of of X, but I'm really interested in the reason for this problem. Thank you very much! Bernard I suspect it may be window manager related. Perhaps startx is starting one wm, such as icewm, and kdm/gdm/xdm/wdm is trying to start a different wm, such as sawfish, and that one is non-functional. I believe kdm offers a pull-down menu to try different wm's, so you might try that. Or is it telling you that it really is a logon issue, perhaps with a message like Invalid logon or something, in which case it's not window manager related.

i'm compiling other programs).
You could still have told us what your command looked like but with
answers you are getting you may not need to now.
None of the many variations of code that I tried gave the above error.
Were you thinking C or C++? A slightly relevant point is that the
optimizer removes the sqrt line in every case below since you are not
using the result of the sqrt.
If you are thinking C then the casting you are doing should be (double)
or (float) not just double or float. That one change gets rid of all
the errors from the following.
I've tried the following and gotten no errors
#include stdio.h
#include math.h
double num=16.0;
int main()
{
double sqrt(double num);
return(0);
}
the following warns me that 'function sqrt does not match global variable'
but still compiles
#include stdio.h
#include math.h
float num;
int main()
{
float sqrt(float num);
return(0);
}
and this one just doesn't work at all giving the parse error previously
described:
#include stdio.h
#include math.h
double num;
int main()
{
num = 16; /*i've also tried 16. and 16.0 here*/
double sqrt(double num);
return(0);
}
[12:13:02 tmp]$ cat sqrt.c
#include stdio.h
#include math.h
double num;
int main()
{
num = 16; /*i've also tried 16. and 16.0 here*/
double sqrt(double num);
return(0);
}
[12:13:10 tmp]$ gcc -Wall sqrt.c -o sqrt -lm
sqrt.c: In function `main':
sqrt.c:9: parse error before `double'
[12:13:25 tmp]$ gcc -v

You can not have a deceleration (double sqrt(double);) after a command (num =
16;) in the same block. Replacing the order of
num = 16
and
double sqrt(double num);
This is another way of saying what I said about casting above. In C++
declarations can occur anywhere but in C they must precede all of the
executable statements.
As a last point Craig was correct about the optimizer - at least for gcc.
float x = 5;
does indeed convert the integer 5 to a float 5 at compile time.
