x doesn't work; mouse configuration blues
i'm having a really difficult time installing debian for the first time. i've been using redhat for a few years, but getting x to work in debian is proving difficult. the initial installation of the bf2.4 version of woody appeared to work well, but when the computer rebooted and tried to startx, it tried a few times and then prompts to configure the X server. it is then able to start X with a 1280x1400 (or whatever it is) resolution, but the mouse doesn't work whatsoever. the information for the monitor and the video card is correct in the XF86 config file; the mouse i have is a 2 button Trekker, which has always worked in redhat when i specified "random 2-button ps/2 mouse." thanks c ... error log This is a pre-release version of XFree86, and is not supported in any way.

crashtastic x & this odd --MARK-- filler
hi! thanks for your effort. i've two minor problems here. ok. so this is the first time i've run x - i've been strictly commandline up until now. i thusfar have only used it for gimp, crazy-addictive evil tangrams, & mozilla, & i anticipate this being the case forever. long live CLI! it's a p3-600 running debian 3.0r1, kernel 2.4.18; i'll be happy to give any other information required, including my cup size. har! anyhow, x is oddly crashy & i do not know why. if i'm logged in & using x, it's fine. if i'm logged in & i switch ttys away from it for more than five or ten minutes, it gives my syslog: gdm_slave_xioerror_handler: Fatal X error - Restarting :0 input condition is: 0x10, exiting & restarts. if i'm logged in & i leave it idle for five or ten minutes, it restarts. if i do not log in, but come back to it five or ten minutes after it's been sitting there, it restarts before letting me log in. i wonder if it's trying to go to a screen saver or something which it isn't finding. i know too little about how x works, & thus haven't been able to find information in my extensive .doc, howto, & groups.google searchings. second issue: i have NO idea if this is related, but it'd be swell if someone could tell me what this "-- MARK --" crap in my messages log is, & how i can make my new box stop doing it at :10, :30 & :50 on the hour. there's nothing in crontab. thanks, cats. you each deserve oral sex. lish [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

They have a 650 megabyte limit to them. The most I have managed to squeeze out of it was 658Mb without turning it into a coaster. This is a physical limit to the drive itself, and even a firmware upgrade doesn't bypass this. The only way to burn more is to buy a newer drive.

Well, a .deb is just an ar archive with a couple of scripts and a tar file of the program data. Have you seen 'checkinstall'? You can use it to automagically make .debs from uDebianised source trees.

It depends. apt tries each source in /etc/apt/sources.list, in order, and stops when it finds the first source that has the particular package at the particular version you want. You can use 'apt-cache policy packagename' to which versions of packagename apt knows about, and where it thinks it can find them. If apt sees the packages on the CD, then it's probably just that the CD lines are *after* the Internet mirrors in your sources.list.

Very odd behavior with XVideo output
I have been having this on-again off-again problem with XVideo for a few months now. I have finally figured out what the problem is. I would really appreciate it if someone could explain this behavior. If I have an external monitor connected and have video output going only to the external monitor (and not the built-in LCD) when the X server starts, then I get a blue screen when trying to use XVideo output (tested with both Xine and MPlayer). However, if I have video going to both the external monitor and the LCD, or just the LCD, then everything plays fine with XVideo. It still works even if I have later switched output to solely the external monitor. The key here is that as long the video signal goes to only the external monitor when the X server starts, then XVideo gets hosed. Can anyone explain this?

Re: Woody kernel 2.4.18-bf2.4 update questions
There was no kernel-image package on your system because a kernel and its modules are part of the basic system. (I believe that will change for Sarge, and that will be a good thing.) Let's step through a way to find the answer to some of your questions: 1. Go to www.debian.org, in the left sidebar click on "Packages", then on "Search package directories". That should lead you here: http://www.debian.org/distrib/packages#search_packages 2. Enter "kernel-image-2.4.18-bf2.4" and click "Search". That should get you this: http://packages.debian.org/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?keywords=kernel-image-2.4.18-bf2.4&searchon=names&subword=1&version=stable&release=all 3. Click on the link, which leads here: http://packages.debian.org/stable/base/kernel-image-2.4.18-bf2.4.html Note the red banner "security". This is a security upgrade. 4. Below the "Go to Download Page" button, click on "developer information for kernel-image-2.4.18-bf2.4", which leads here: http://packages.qa.debian.org/k/kernel-image-2.4.18-i386bf.html Note that this package is the sixth version of kernel-image-2.4.18-bf2.4, and it was released on 07 June 2003 (the day before the security advisory). My conclusions: A. Debian does upgrade binary kernel packages to fix security problems. B. The version numbers are "jacked up". The current version is the sixth version. C. The Security Advisory was issued once the necessary upgrade packages were in place. D. If you installed version six of this kernel-image you have the latest version available. To see if which version of a package you have, do "dpkg -l ": Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold | Status=Not/Installed/Config-files/Unpacked/Failed-config/Half-installed |/ Err?=(none)/Hold/Reinst-required/X=both-problems (Status,Err: uppercase=bad) ||/ Name VersionDescription +++-==-=- ii kernel-image-2 2.0 Linux kernel binary image for version 2.4.20 (I build my own kernels, but the idea is still the same.) Compare the version number with the version number you see in #4 above to see if you have the latest version. If you don't an upgrade may be in order. For a description of debian kernel image names, read this section and the two that follow: http://newbiedoc.sourceforge.net/system/kernel-pkg.html#APPEND-KERNEL-PKG This will answer your question about the warnings about modules. (Read the whole article to find out how to build your own kernels.) The kernel-headers package was updated on the same day as the kernel-image, so you should upgrade it as well. OTOH, you could just step through the tutorial (using kernel-source-2.4.20 instead), configure your kernel to build the e100 package you need and forget about kernel headers. :) Kevin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Using Samba as a PDC for Win2k
Hello all, I have one machine setup with samba 3 (or whatever comes with sarge), and it works fine for sharing stuff with Win95 and 98 machines. I wanted to be able to have a Win2k machine logon using the users on the samba machine, so I looked into how to set up samba to work as a PDC. I went to: http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Samba-Authenticated-Gateway-HOWTO.html http://sunsite.dk/samba/ftp/docs/htmldocs/samba-pdc-howto.html http://sunsite.dk/samba/ftp/docs/htmldocs/samba-pdc-faq.html But I'm still having some problems. Partly, probably, because the samba-pdc-howto is for samba 2.2, but anyway, this is what happens. I configured smb.conf to have the stuff that the howto suggests, and even added a 'machine user'. In Win2k when I go to Network Identification -> Properties and type in the domain, it asks for a 'Domain Username and Password'. I've tried root, Administrator and some other accounts that are members of the group I specified as domain admins, and it keeps saying "unknown username or bad password". I think this might have something to do with the new passdb.tdb file that's supposed to replace smbpasswd... I tried using the smbpasswd utility, and it said "Failed to modify entry for user blah$". Since that machine *does* exist in /etc/passwd, i looked around for smbpasswd and couldn't find it on my drive. I found smbpasswd.bak, so then I ran mksmbpasswd according to the manual, but that still didn't help. So then I reconfigured the samba package, to find out that the password thing is now in passdb.tdb. In case passdb.tdb was out of date, I moved it to a new name and let dpkg-reconfigure generate a new one. Now the smbpasswd utility works just fine, but I still can't logon to the domain; I still get "unknown username or bad password" when signing in with user root. Any ideas?

Otherwise (I think) it may (will?) overwrite your config file (with info in the debconf database) the next time an upgrade happens.

The package *is* being reinstalled, it is just that some stuff may come from the local cache in /var/cache/apt/archives, depending on how recently you cleaned it. Apt looks there first. However, only the package itself will be reinstalled.

need help with exim setup
I have ppp connection to my ISP, peakpeak.com. I have a LAN for my wife's iMac and my two Debian machines. All internet traffic goes thru the single ppp connection. I have set up exim using choise 2 in the exim config. I use [EMAIL PROTECTED] and my wife uses [EMAIL PROTECTED] Email to and from the internet works for both my wife and I, but ... 1. I can't send email to my wife, and 2. I can't send email to ISP support services, for which the address is [EMAIL PROTECTED] I think that these two problems are the result of improper configuration of exim. Exim seems to be attempting to deliver both kinds of email locally rather than sending them out to the smtp service at the ISP, and, of course, it can't deliver because neither address is known locally. For my wife, I wouldn't mind having local delivery, but for the ISP's support, I definitely need to send the mail off site. Am I right about this being an exim config problem? And, what should I change to fix it? TIA PS Why email my wife? We do talk to each other, but stuff about software updates for the iMac come to me, and forwarding the email to her would be a reliable way to get hot-links onto the iMac. -- Paul E Condon [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Looking for tips on ppp problem: LCP ConfReq
I've got two machines (well, more, but only two are relevant to the problem) here, both running woody. One a laptop, one a ... well, can't really call it a desktop, it's usually my gateway/firewall/webserver. I had to move it to a modem for a while, however, it refuses to connect. The laptop, however, with pretty much an identical setup, connects without a hitch. So at the moment I've got the laptop set up as gateway so that I can send this. The connection doesn't get any further than LCP ConfReq. Apart for stuff in ip-up.d, ip-down.d, the .bak files, and pap-secrets, /etc/ppp is identical on both machines. (Um, also options.ttyXX differs, but that's just a template for options.tty??, right?) Only difference in /etc/chatscripts is a "ABORT DELAYED". What else could it be? I'd suspect if the connection gets as far as it does, that the serial setup is good? Any ideas that I should pursue?

The 4th google hit for "debian kernel ncurses" gave me http://www.debian.org/doc/FAQ/ch-kernel.en.html which contains: Modify the kernel configuration using one of these commands: * make config (for a tty one-line-at-a-time-interface). * make menuconfig (for an ncurses-based menu driven interface). Note that to use this option, the libncurses5-dev package must be installed. * make xconfig (for an X11 interface). Using this option requires that relevant X and Tcl/Tk packages be installed. This is the way that libraries are packaged for debian. The lib package contains the runtime libraries, and the lib*-dev package contains the development files necessary for compilation (header files and such). good times, Vineet -- http://www.doorstop.net/ -- --Nick Moffitt A: No. Q: Should I include quotations after my reply? signature.asc Description: Digital signature

You must have Ncurses installed in order to use 'make menuconfig'

Re: Correct Java for the Firebird package?
Hi! I am using the Blackdown java client, but I tried the Sun's java client too with moz firebird.

If this is not working, try to link that javaplugin_oji.so file to the MozillaFirebird install dir, where is a plugins dir too. It has a file called libnullplugin.so.

Exim log rotation
I'd like to rotate my exim logs weekly instead of daily.

When you boot, your favorite display manager comes up. There should be a pull-down box somewhere for "session" (unless your favorite display manager is xdm). My personal experience has been that, under gdm, if you pick the 'GNOME' session, gdm will helpfully run gnome-session for you and otherwise ignore your dotfiles. If you pick the 'Debian' session, then it will run the first of $HOME/.xsession, /etc/alternatives/x-session-manager, or /etc/alternatives/x-window-manager that it finds. Looking harder at the kdm dotfiles, though, it looks like whatever you pick as a session, the default setup just runs /etc/X11/Xsession, which is what you actually wanted anyways. -- David Maze [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://people.debian.org/~dmaze/ "Theoretical politics is interesting.

boot problem with new kernel-any idas?
I recently downloaded, and using "make-kpkg buildpackage", built a complete new kernel headers...etc. from a tarball( linux-2.4.21) downloaded from www.kernel.org. It installed with no problems, including running lilo. I rebooted and crapped out at the line "freeing unused kernel memory". I have built many kernels over the years but I need to get new usb devices implemented as well as scsi emulation etc. for cd-burner & mustek scanner mods builtin. I thought "no problem" and proceeded to implement the old kernel and start over. To my great surprise the old kernel now craps out at the exact same place. Kind of makes me think it,s something other than the new kernel...however all was working fine before the reboot. However this is a SID system and I have recently upgraded other apps...very carefully. avoiding buggy proggies via apt-listbug. Any ideas as to what is going on?

Assuming that you were using the Debian Way to make kernel images, upon installation of a new image, the old one is automatically backed up and an entry is placed in lilo.conf called LinuxOLD.

If the only problem is that your MBR got wiped out, just re-running lilo should fix the problem. First try "lilo -v" as root. This will just re-run lilo and show you what it's doing in the process. Keep an eye out for error messages. I BELIEVE that lilo will automatically write the result to the MBR to begin with. If it doesn't, you can try "lilo -vM /dev/hda" (replace hda with whatever device your HD is actually on). If you want to reinstall the mbr package, just run "apt-get install --reinstall mbr".

I think lm-sensors 2.7.x requires i2c 2.7.0 or newer, but kernel 2.4.21 only has i2c 2.6.1. You might run into problems when things actually start working because of the version mismatch, if modprobe finds the kernel modules before the i2c-source modules; see, for example, http://bugs.debian.org/179236. > The compilation succeeds, and I find the two packages correctly built in > /usr/src. > > I then install the packages, and run sensors-detect which should configure > everything for me; however, this fails because > > modprobe: Can't locate module i2c-viapro > modprobe: Can't locate module i2c-riva > modprobe: Can't locate module i2c-dev > > The modules are installed by the packages in > > /lib/modules/2.4.20-k7-fb/lm-sensors > > and in > > /lib/modules/2.4.20-k7-fb/misc Have you at this point rebooted to run the 2.4.20-k7-fb kernel?

I've had this where a system was configured to spin down a drive on
not being used for a while. The first command to the drive is usually
a seek, and it takes long enough for the drive to spin up and complete
the seek that the command times out.
There may be a relevant setting in your BIOS.
I keep my drives on always, as it's rare they go very long without
access, and I suspect the strain of the initial spin up happening
several times a day is worse than the strain of continuous use.

i2c and kernel modules
Hello, I am trying to get to work i2c and lm-sensors on my Debian testing/unstable. I downloaded and installed i2c-source and lm-sensors-source; then extracted them, and proceeded to build the modules like I did with ALSA and nvidia, with a line like this: sudo make-kpkg --append-to-version=-k7-fb --added-modules=i2c,lm-sensors modules_image --config=menuconfig (blessed be Kevin McKinley ;) (append-to-version matches my running kernel, a 2.4.20 kernel with frame buffer). In the config, I chose to compile i2c as a module. I later found that the kernel has built-in support for i2c, but I remember to have read in i2c docs that, as long as everything is built as a module, this shouldn't be a problem. The compilation succeeds, and I find the two packages correctly built in /usr/src. I then install the packages, and run sensors-detect which should configure everything for me; however, this fails because modprobe: Can't locate module i2c-viapro modprobe: Can't locate module i2c-riva modprobe: Can't locate module i2c-dev The modules are installed by the packages in /lib/modules/2.4.20-k7-fb/lm-sensors and in /lib/modules/2.4.20-k7-fb/misc (dpkg -L tells me this). However, modconf has no idea of the existence of this modules (or better, I can't seem to find them anywhere), and modprobe follows a similar route. Am I missing something? :) -- Danilo Raineri, [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
can't upgrade libpam-modules
Hello, I've got a system running unstable and got this problem when trying to update the packages today.

Basically look in /var/cache/apt/archives. You should have libpam0g and libpam-modules in there. Here is the exact commands I used: cd /var/cache/apt/archives dpkg -i libpam0g_0.76-12_i386.deb libpam-modules_0.76-12_i386.deb Then I could dist-upgrade to my hearts content. I am sure this problem will go away eventually, but for the immediate future here you are. -- Arthur H.

You may use gcc 3.0.x instead if you wish, although it may cause problems. Later versions of gcc have not received much testing for Linux kernel compilation, and there are almost certainly bugs (mainly, but not exclusively, in the kernel) that will need to be fixed in order to use these compilers.
