Excellent! This turns up the following:

tcp  888  0 192.168.35.10:42799 128.143.202.191:23 
ESTABLISHED1 3841/aprsd

Duh! Big red "ouch" starts fading in across forehead as the light comes
on. "host 128.143.202.191" returns "xenon.hscs.Virginia.EDU."
Sure enough, "/etc/init.d/aprsd stop" makes the traffic cease and the
connection drop. (Should've read some documentation, instead of simply
apt-getting the other day and thinking I'd play with it later.)

Many thanks, David! Now I'm off to learn about aprsd... after I get some
sleep. :-)

Do you know that machine (xenon.hscs.Virgi)? I can't look it up, so I
guess the name is truncated. Try to run

sudo netstat --inet -np

You will see the IP address, instead of half the name, and you can look
that up with

host 192.168.0.1

where 192.168.0.1 should of course be replaced by the IP address. In the
last column of netstat, you will see the PID of the process running the
connection, as well as its name (possibly). Run

ps -ef

and look for you process. Which process is it? Which user is running
that process? Since when has it been running?

HTH,

David

Interesting netstat results

[Jacob S.]

I noticed tonight as I was about to get off the computer and head for
bed that the network meter on my taskbar was still showing a bit of
activity. And while I did notice the Sarge upgrade has changed the
way the network meter shows traffic, making it look like more than it
is, the network switch agreed with this constant stream as well. Looking
at the meter on the taskbar, we're only talking a little under 0.5kbp/s.

But, looking at the output of netstat, I noticed the following entry:

Active Internet connections (w/o servers)
Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address  Foreign Address  State
tcp0  0 jacob.6texans.net:42799 xenon.hscs.Virgi:telnet
ESTABLISHED

All the other entries list an ip address or FQDN. Furthermore, I don't
have a Telnet server installed on this computer and I'm not connected to
any other computers via telnet. This computer is on an internal network
protected by a Debian Woody firewall box.

A run of chkrootkit didn't turn up anything, but I can't think of any
other reason to still be seeing traffic.

Any thought, hints, tips?

TIA,
Jacob

Thanks.  I'm probably not going to add it to the page for the sake of

kind of patterns we're dealing with.

However, I'm not sure wildcards work there.  Do they?

The problem is that the system I'm chrooting into doesn't have the
packages needed for finalizing a debootstrap system as described in
Chapter 3 of the Debian Installation Manual.

* dpkg-reconfigure console-data (console-data not installed)
* editor /etc/network/interfaces (no editors - none of vi,vim, or pico
installed)
* /usr/sbin/base-config (base-config not installed)

and so on.  

Just to be sure we're talking about the same bug, here's the end of the
debootstrap output and the error messages:

...
I: Installing core packages...

The other part I'm not certain about is the configuration of master.cf:
First, I'm not certain that the configuration is all the correct.
I didn't test it as well as I should have, so I'll have to keep kind of
quiet.
My real concern is the use of the options.  I would like to be able to
ensure that my UCE's are implimented at the beginning of the connection
(pre amavisd).  One problem I ran into with SuSE is that the UCE's that
were in main.cf were not implimented until after amavis tried to deliver
them.  This resulted in my mail server being exploited to bounce
email-spam at other people using my postmaster ("<>") as the sender.
Not cool!
I don't want a repeat of that one.
Take a closer look at /usr/share/doc/postfix/FILTER_README.gz 
(you have to install postfix-doc)

I did!  I think that was the problem.  The documentation under the 
amavisd-new installation has some mentions on configuration for postfix, 
but they don't appear at all similar to what I've seen in the past for 
postfix, postfix mailing lists, or the FILTER_README file.

I suspect that the best thing for me to do at this point is to discard 
the Debian postfix readme for amavisd-new and RTFM for postfix and work 
it out on that list.  Once understood, post a bugreport on clarification 
of the documentation.  As it is, this is a non-functional installation. 
 That's OK though, it's a non-trivial configuration.

Ernest Johanson wrote:
Right. It can go in /etc/init.d or in /etc/network/interfaces. Probably

I got the distinct impression that running firewall scripts using the 
/etc/network/if-up.d and /etc/network/if-down.d directories was 
definetely the way to go.

If you do this, then what you declare in the /etc/network/interfaces can 
be provided as environment variables to any scripts in 
/etc/networki/if-up.d.  For example I declare in my interfaces file the 
values for:
   address
   netmask
   gateway
   broadcast
   network
These are then provided as ENV Vars to the firewall script as:
   $IFACE (eth0)
   $IF_ADDRESS
   $IF_BROADCAST
   $IF_GATEWAY
   $IF_NETMASK
   $IF_NETWORK

(You will probably have noticed that most of these are not _required_ 
for a network to configure correctly, but having a single point of 
reference is nice)

Because of this arrangement, the presence of a file in 
/etc/network/if-up.d works much the same way as they might in 
/etc/rc4.d/ in that they are executed if set with the correct permissions.

I find this much easier to manage and understand since it's a mimic of 
an existing core process/method of Unix systems.

Ernest, your suggestion of running rpcinfo closed the loop on my 
configuration and I am now very happy with my firewall script!
Thank you.

Hrm.  I just

aptitude install dictd dict-wn dict-moby-thesaurus

pointed KDict at it, and away I went.

I installed dict, tried

dict -d moby-thesaurus quit

and that worked too.

I'm running Sid, and I last updated a couple days ago, FWIW.

Anyway, reading through this revealed what I think are the magic words you 
need.  Try running:

# Older dictionary database packages did not automatically invoke
# /usr/sbin/dictdconfig upon installation and removal, so you may
# need to do so manually (after which, you should restart dictd).

That's what did the trick for me last time, I think.  IIRC it picks up any 
new .dict.gz and .index files and adds them automagically to 
the /var/lib/dictd/db.list file, which shouldn't be hand-edited.

If those words weren't magic enough, I'll post my complete config for this 
thing.

If I am not mistaken its 4.3.99.12, I know its not 4 but IIRC its an
experimental release on its way there.

Don't recall at what stage the new license was introduced though.

Re: Linux reports incorrect CPU speed

[Piers Kittel]

Hmmm good point - even using the bf24 kernel, the speed feels the 
same...  I'm sure this should feel a little faster considering its a 
750MHz CPU...?  Or is it just KDE being bloaty?

Thanks very much for your help!

Yes, that's your/my problem.  My files came from (apt) debian.org so

Linux reports incorrect CPU speed

[Piers Kittel]

Hello all,
Have had lots of probs with this laptop and decided just to reformat the 
hard drive and reinstall Debian (for the first time ever - oh the shame) 
even tho all probs would be fixable - but I needed a working laptop. 
Anyway it's all working but KDE feels very slow, and looked up the CPU 
speed and Linux reports it to be 259MHz while it should be 750MHz as the 
BIOS reports.

When using the 2.4.26 kernel with custom .config file.  Taking the info 
from dmesg:

Right. It can go in /etc/init.d or in /etc/network/interfaces. Probably
better in interfaces so the rules are applied as soon as the interfaces

Here are some more domains for the sample picky-hosts file, if you're
interested.

bham.ac.uk
*.bham.ac.uk
uta.fi
*.uta.fi
bigfoot.com
cnrs-dir.fr

Are you sure about verizon.net?  I send a lot of e-mails to a friend
with that address domain, and I'm still successfully routing them
directly.

I do something similar but upside-down in the routers section (of my
monolithic /etc/exim4.conf, because when I switched to Debian I already
had a config file I'd heavily customized).

problematic:
driver = manualroute
transport = remote_smtp
route_list = * smtp.blueyonder.co.uk
domains = bham.ac.uk:*.bham.ac.uk:uta.fi:*.uta.fi:[...]

dnslookup:
driver = dnslookup
domains = ! +local_domains
transport = remote_smtp
ignore_target_hosts = 0.0.0.0 : 127.0.0.0/8
no_more

(followed by the local mail routers)


The problem is that I discover a new domain is using one of these
ignorant blacklists when the message bounces.  I'd like to add a stanza
after dnslookup and configure dnslookup so that when mail is rejected
for such a reason, Exim automatically falls through to the next stanza,
routes the mail through my ISP's server, and notifies the local
postmaster that this has happened.

Do you have any idea how to do this?

You don't get the error messages, but are you sure dma is enabled on Red
Hat 9? If so, which kernel is it running?

Was using 1.3.28-2, now using 1.5.6-20040523+1.backports.org.1.
Somewhere along the line the bug has been fixed, though earlier than
that changelog entry, as Chris Harris, on whose suggestion I upgraded
to the backports.org version, says it was gone by 1.5.3. From the web
page in the changelog entry, it seems that the "better support" is
concerned with making the PGP options for outgoing mail more
comprehensive, more useful and less likely to produce PGP-signed mails
that cause outhouse excess to throw a screaming fit :-)

Thanks, anyway!

At your bootprompt, try booting with:

linux nodma

to see if that helps. If not, and the errors still persist, then replace
the drive.

dma timeout retry: status=0x58

[Owen Mehegan]

Hello -

The reason I'm submitting this to the Debian list is because this issue seems to be 
related to whatever kernel options Debian gives me, or perhaps the specific 2.4 
version that Debian installs. In short, when I boot Red Hat 9 on this system, also 
using a 2.4 kernel, I don't seem to have this problem.

The problem I'm referring to is basically this: on my Dell Latitude LS laptop, when I 
reboot the system, it is unable to enable dma on its hard drive. However after any 
power down/power up cycle, it has no problem doing so. The drive is an IBM, and I've 
used their drive fitness test tool, which tells me the drive is fine. I also installed 
smartmontools and had it check the S.M.A.R.T. status of the drive, and it checked out 
as well.

When the system is warm booting, I get these errors when it tries to enable dma 
(pulled from dmesg so you can see context):

My BIOS doesn't let me choose anything with regard to DMA settings on this drive, so I 
don't think there's any issue there. And as I said, Red Hat 9 can enable DMA 
consistently no problem. This seems to indicate some kind of driver or kernel issue, 
but Google hasn't shown me to an answer yet.

I am running Debian Unstable with the 2.4.26 kernel. Any suggestions about possible 
solutions to this problem would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance,

udev question

[Sam Halliday]

hi there,

i was wondering if somebody could help me set up udev to make symlinks in a
specific way...

i have 2 mouse input devices... one is always connected (/dev/input/mouse1) and
another is a usbmouse and appears as (/dev/input/mouseX), with X increasing
every time i remove and reconnect it.

i would very much like to have a symlink set up by udev (/dev/input/mousemain or
similar) which points to the /dev/input/mouseX unless it has been removed, in
which case it should be pointed to /dev/input/mouse1.

unfortunately the /dev/input/mouseX devices all remain when the usb mouse is
unplugged and reconnected.

Don't follow deprecated guides. This method did work with alpha versions

does not work anymore.

Nowadays, run:

Yup, better use Sid (and wait till tommorow when Mono 1.0 appears on

I have no idea how to control them independently from the front speakers, but 
I have all five working.

I run ALSA rather than OSS.

I have an RCA cable plugged into a mini headphone jack adapter and then into 
the orange jack on the card.  The other end goes into the digital coax input 
on my el-cheapo home theater.

I have digital out enabled via the mixer.  (Mixers under ALSA are ghastly to 
control.  The only thing I've found that works for me is KAMix, which I had 
to hack to get to compile on Debian.)

I don't know if it's real surround or not, but it sounds good, and all six 
speakers work.

Anyway, probably no use to you other than letting you know it's possible to 
get somewhere.  I guess I'd try ALSA, and if you have an orange jack on your 
home theater or your set of surround speakers or whatever, then use that.  If 
not, I have no clue what remedy you might have.

That test isn't reliable.  Arial and Helvetica are obviously identical here, 
but the fonts are most assuredly antialiased, as magnifying them reveals.

I might have set up an alias within OO.o itself, come to think of it.  I have 
a consistent problem with Helvetica.  It wants to be a bitmapped screen font, 
and it can't be antialiased.  The best remedy is to steer well away from 
Helvetica and use something else.

I wish I could tell you exactly how I got here.  The truth is I got here by 
wildly flailing around trying stupid things.

If you run KDE, the new font installer stuff is helpful.  Beyond that, I don't 
really have a clue.  Whenever I try to understand how fonts work in X, I just 
wind up very angry and frustrated.  It's horrible.

The umount "errors" are harmless warning messages (bug #253468).
Whatever bug dannf ran into, it's not prevented debootstrap from working
fine in general in the month since he filed it, and it's probably not

In my experience the .deb is not put in the cwd but elsewhere... e.g.

That's a very good point.  For those who _just can't wait_ for sarge
to go stable, I say nuts to you!  There are many options for you,
including sarge and sid, and Libranet, Xandros, Morphix, ...  If the

either it's your responsibility to change that (by installing sources)

You should be able to get it to go with the .dict.dz and the .index file.  
There's some script you can run to add databases automatically, and it should 
pick them up.  If you installed that from a package, the package should have 
run that script already, I should think.

I can't be more specific than this because I haven't run my own dictd server 
in quite a long time.  If you're reallly stuck, I'll set it up here and 
tell you how I got it to work.  I had mine working with all kinds of 
non-packaged databases for foreign translation dictionaries and such, and I 
even made my own dictionary once.  I have some experience fooling with the 
thing, but none of it recent enough to feed you exactly the right magic 
words.

My installation has "moby" as an alias for moby-thesaurus, and I find

I don't know why.

No, nothing so drastic, luckily. Just that `mount' now shows something
like:

/dev/hdc1 on / type unknown (rw,errors=remount-ro,acl)

and it used to have something like

/dev/hdc1 on / type ext3 (rw,errors=remount-ro,acl)

but I haven't encountered any real problems.

Re: Anyone using GNUstep?

[Ed Sutherland]

Running GNUstep applications under fluxbox works fine. After all the 
clutter of the major environments and wrestling with the quirks of so 
many other windowmanagers, fluxbox seems a joy of simplicity and 
compactness. About the only extra detail I need in a windowmanager - a 
simple digital clock - too often consumes precious desktop space (I have 
a 15-inch monitor, not a 21-inch workstation display.) Having the clock 
on the task bar is a sign fluxbox is on the right track.

With Window-Maker, which is the preferred desktop for GNUstep, the 
layout seemed uncomfortable and crowded. Fluxbox includes my GNUstep 
apps right along with Gnome and KDE. Plus, for whatever reason, fluxbox 
doesn't give me that 'crowded' feeling.

With Afterstep, the desktop background and menus were gorgeous, but upon 
opening two GNUstep windows (GNUmail's main and mailbox windows, for 
instance), the display would flicker.

With Gnome, the GNUstep AddressManager opens, but within minutes would 
'bomb' (with a lit bomb and a message the app required rebooting.)

So, all in all, fluxbox seems the best windowmanager I've tried yet.

If I am not mistaken the X version in debian, despite being 4.3 is more
in the direction of a pre version of 4.4 (just before the license
change).

My guess is that at the moment most distributions are checking where
the wind blows and will probably switch to the X.org server instead of
xfree86 in some time (hopefully before too long).

I'm sick to death of this "voting" business. Sarge will be released When

tough. Either dist-upgrade to (the current) testing, or backport every

That e-mail address is for bugs in packages for Unstable, *not* stable.
The error you're suffering from "no screens found", is an error in the way
you have configured X11.

What you need to do is the following (as root user):

dpkg-reconfigure -plow xserver-xfree86

and when the question about FrameBuffers arrives answer "NO" to it. Then
just keep going until you have answered the remaining questions, and
startx.

I don't know how to do that from mutt and the command line.  Although
I would be surprised if there was not a way.

If you use maildir style mailboxes then each message is saved in its
own file.  That means you can use normal commands to manipulate those
files.  Given a maildir format mailbox in ~/Mail/Maildir the following
commands work on them.  This looks at files older than 7 days of
modification time ago.

  find ~/Mail/Maildir -type f -mtime +7 -print0 | xargs -r0 ls -ld

Then to delete them the following.  WARNING: This deletes files!
Remove the echo to activate but only after you are sure.

  find ~/Mail/Maildir -type f -mtime +7 -print0 | xargs -r0 echo rm -f

You can look at just read messages leaving unread messages untouched
by finding only in the new directory.

  find ~/Mail/Maildir/new -type f -mtime +7 -print

SB Live! 5.1 - Can not make the rear channels working

[LeVA]

Hi!

I have an SB Live! 5.1 PCI soundcard. It's pci id is 
1102:0002 
I can access three dsp devices under my /dev. These 
are /dev/dsp , dsp0 and dsp1. 
I can test the dsp devices with: 
`cat /usr/bin/mc > /dev/dsp' -> Front Speakers 
`cat /usr/bin/mc > /dev/dsp0' -> Front Speakers(again) 
`cat /usr/bin/mc > /dev/dsp1' -> I can not hear anything... 
`cat /usr/bin/mc > /dev/dsp2' -> No such device 
`cat /usr/bin/mc > /dev/dsp3' -> No such device 

I have four speakers. One stereo set plugged in to the 
green jack (Front), and one stereo set plugged in to the 
black jack (Rear). But I can't hear anything from the 
rear speakers, although they are working, cause I can 
change the speakers. 
I'm using the OSS drivers from linux kernel 2.6.7. 

lsmod: 
 emu10k1 68740 2 
 ac97_codec 16780 1 emu10k1 

From the emu-tools package (emu10k1.sf.net):
emu-dspmgr -r : 

 Routes: 
 Pcm L:Front L 
 Pcm L:Rear L 
 Pcm R:Front R 
 Pcm R:Rear R 
 Pcm1 L:Rear L 
 Pcm1 R:Rear R

 Analog R:Rear R 
 Analog R:ADC Rec R 
 CD-Spdif L:Front L 
 CD-Spdif L:Rear L 
 CD-Spdif R:Front R 
 CD-Spdif R:Rear R 

In the kmix mixer program I can see two PCM outputs, 
PCM and PCM2. The PCM is only adjusting the Front 
speaker's volume. The PCM2 doesn't do anything... 
Unfortunately I can not compile the emu10k1 driver from 
emu10k1.sf.net, because it doesn't compile under kernel 
2.6. 

I'm asking for help, to make the rear speakers working with 
this sb live card. 

Thanks!

Apart from that 4.4.0 has license problems and will probably not go into 
Debian in any form, the answer to such question is usually a search on 
apt-get.org. If you can't find it there, the answer is most likely 
"no" :-)

X11 Mouse Cursor in gnome 2.6

[David Purton]

Hi all,

Here's an odd problem I haven't found a work around for:

HP Laptop
S3 Savage/IX-MV video card
Sid
X SAVAGE video driver using the MobileSavage engine
Gnome 2.6
Login using GDM

When I login, a black cross X11 mouse cursor appears in the middle of
the screen in addition to the white gnome pointer.

This cursor is not present at the GDM screen.

I can't move it and the gnome mouse pointer goes behind it.

After about 10 mins it disappears and all is good, but it's quite
annoying for the first 10 mins of a session.

I'm figuring this is either something to do with the X setup on this
laptop or the driver for the video card, since I don't see this on my
desktop machine.


Does anyone have any ideas on how to make this Cursor vanish more
quickly?


cheers
