Yes, the main problems would be the partial migration of huge systems like Gnome.

Re: excluding files w/ tar (retraction)
One way to test exclude patterns is with
tar -c --exclude=pattern includedirectorys | tar -t -
Unfortunately, I didn't run such a test before responding to the
original poster, and now that I have I would like to retract my previous
posts on the subject. Sorry!
The examples below show that the stripping of the leading / by tar is
not the issue as I thought it was.
$ rm -fr /tmp/{a,b}
$ mkdir -p /tmp/a/b /tmp/b/tmp/a/c
$ tar -c --exclude=nothing /tmp/{a,b} | tar -t -f -

tmp/b/tmp/

#everything is listed, as expected
$ tar -c --exclude=/tmp/a /tmp/{a,b} | tar -t -f -

Sid is always the name for unstable. The next testing will be Etch, so once
Sarge is stable, we have:
Stable = Sarge
Testing = Etch
Unstable = Sid
If you read up on the characters in "Toy Story," it makes sense, since Sid is
the kid next store who breaks toys.

5.6 What does the testing directory contain?
Packages are installed into the `testing' directory after they have
undergone some degree of testing in unstable.
They must be in sync on all architectures where they have been built
and mustn't have dependencies that make them uninstallable; they also
have to have fewer release-critical bugs than the versions currently
in testing [unstable?]. This way, we hope that `testing' is always
close to being a release candidate.

That doesn't sound as if it's about to go haywire.
OK. Let me explain this better. Right now, sarge is in "frozen" which
means only critical bugs are allowed into it. In a couple of days
(hopefully), sarge with become stable and etch will become the new
testing.
The system will once again allow packages to come into testing (which is
now "etch") from unstable after 2 to 10 days of no critical bug
submissions. The developers will be allowed to submit packages into
unstable that they were not allowed to during the freeze. This is usually
a *lot* of packages. So, a couple of days after all these packages are
submitted, they will eventually find their way into testing. If you can
put up with that sudden wave of packages a couple of days after sarge is
released (and a steady stream of updates after that), then keep on using
"testing". If you just want security fixes, use "sarge".

I've only been a Debian user for a little over a year but have been very impressed with the stability of the system and how well the updates to stable are truly stable and don't tend to break things. I've never been through a major version upgrade in a Debian release. I've done a few woody to sarge manual updates and had to do some hand-holding and fix a few things. My sources.list files are using specifically "stable" and I'm wondering what happens when the Sarge big, red, shiny, candy-like button gets pressed. Do all my systems go and try to install Sarge? I'm guessing probably "yes", but will we get a nice announcement with a fair warning period? If you want to stay on woody once the switch is made, change instances of 'stable' in sources.list to 'woody'. Add duplicate lines with 'sarge in them instead' and modify your cron-apt to use woody instead of stable. When the time comes, you can update packages at a slower rate by doing `apt-get -t sarge install package]'. I have found this works well for me (although I don't keep the systems automatically updated with cron-apt, I am generally working with the systems I maintain all the time to remember to do this when need be) and is an easy way to update only the things I want to and let certain services get updated at times of mimimal use to reduce the noticibility it something happens that shouldn't (or I didn't expect). smime.p7s Description: S/MIME Cryptographic Signature

Woody to Sarge "stable"?
I've got about 30 systems running woody right now and they automatically keep themselves up to date using cron-apt (I actually have it apply the updates). I've only been a Debian user for a little over a year but have been very impressed with the stability of the system and how well the updates to stable are truly stable and don't tend to break things. I've never been through a major version upgrade in a Debian release. I've done a few woody to sarge manual updates and had to do some hand-holding and fix a few things. My sources.list files are using specifically "stable" and I'm wondering what happens when the Sarge big, red, shiny, candy-like button gets pressed. Do all my systems go and try to install Sarge? I'm guessing probably "yes", but will we get a nice announcement with a fair warning period? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

NVidia drivers & kernel compilation: version magic?
Hey ho, From my very first steps with Debian, I was taught to compile kernel sources myself, rather than the proverbial Debian way, so that's what I've been doing ever since. After compilation, an "sh ./NVIDIA_binary_driver_package.run" has never failed on me, until recently. For some reason, when it's done building the kernel module, it fails to load it. Its error log (/var/log/nvidia-installer.log) then states this: nvidia: version magic '2.6.11.11-zukunft preempt PENTIUM4 4KSTACKS gcc-3.2' should be '2.6.11.11-zukunft preempt PENTIUM4 4KSTACKS gcc-3.3 I try my very best, but I just can't see the problem... /proc/version definitely shows the kernel was compiled with "gcc version 3.3.6", so why is my kernel showing version magic including "gcc-3.2"? Googling the error message merely points to faulty symlinks or sources that don't match the running kernel, but those can't be the problem. Since I've never done this any other way, I can't imagine I'm doing something wrong, but of course, there are lots of things I never had to wonder about anyway... Could someone perhaps enlighten me on what the problem could be?

First, you shove it through that Perl script with the line intact (isn't
downloading Videos from "secure" pages fun...):
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
foreach () {
s/\%([0-9a-fA-F]{1,2})/print STDOUT chr(hex($1))/ge;
}
Afterwards, you search the resulting JavaScript fragment for what the dF
function actually does. It decodes to this:
document.write('empty..');
function dF(s){
var s1=unescape(s.substr(0,s.length-1));
var t= '';
for(i=0;i

You do actually have a non-default ramdisk size. The default is 4MB you are using 8. The "comment" isn't really a comment as such. It's actually a bit of magic that is used by update-grub. To be on the safe side I stuck a ramdisk_size=16384 on my kopt. To the world in general: I'm am still interested to know whether the machine would have booted with out this option being added. If not then shouldn't update-grub probe the size of initrd images and check to make sure they are all smaller than 4MB, adding the required ramdisk_size option if they aren't? It seems to me like this would be a very simple extension as update-grub is doing it's magic on a currently running system it should be easy to find the size of the various files. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Re: Problems Mounting Digital Camera
> is it possible? i > mean, access my cam w/ gphoto and not mounting it? Yes, this is how my Canon Powershot S30 works, and many other cameras too I believe. I never mount my camera as a file system. Instead I just run digikam, which is a front end for libgphoto2, which "sees" my camera and knows how to manipulate its contents. Other cameras do get mounted as file systems, which seems more convenient since it allows you to manipulate their contents without the intermediary of gphoto2. But if your camera isn't one of those, there's nothing you can do about it. Of course there is the newer gphoto-fuse-fs option that I mentioned. I've never tried that, and it requires the fuse module. But it may work for you. > maybe some module > to be loaded by the kernel should fix it? FWIW, below are my notes about how I got gphoto2 to work. It seems that I needed usb support, hotplug, and Video4Linux. Good luck, Andrew. 2004-03: read /usr/share/doc/libgphoto2-2/README.Debian. The instructions below are somewhat dated. 2003-09: To set up gphoto2 I followed the instructions in the gphoto2 manual section 4.3, http://gphoto.sourceforge.net/doc/manual/permissions-usb.html. Also, the Video4Linux kernel module is required for USB cameras. First I set up USB. In the end all that was needed was to include USB support (especially "Preliminary USB file system support") in the kernel, and install hotplug. usbdevfs is then automatically mounted for me at boot time, presumably by hotplug, under /proc/bus/usb. To set up gphoto2, again I followed the instructions: mkdir /usr/lib/hotplug/libgphoto2 /usr/lib/libgphoto2-2/print-usb-usermap > \ /usr/lib/hotplug/libgphoto2/usb.usermap update-usb.usermap which includes the contents of /usr/lib/hotplug/libgphoto2/usb.usermap (camera descriptions) into /etc/hotplug/usb.usermap. Then I borrowed the sample script /usr/share/doc/gphoto2/linux-hotplug/usbcam.group and copied it to /etc/hotplug/usb/usbcam. All this script does is change the group ownership of a newly plugged-in camera to camera, and set the group rw permissions. I also created the "camera" group, which should include all console users. Finally I set update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/camera camera \ /usr/bin/digikam 100 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

cross-partition upgrade
I have a machine with a functioning warge an woody, on two partitions. Well, almost functioning. Of the two systems I had expected woody to be more stable, but it's happened the other way around. At my last motherboard upgrade (forced by failing a smoke test), woody lost all semblance of ethernet support. No more security upgrades. No more penetration attempts from outside either. No easy dist-upgrade to etch over the net. Now, when sarge becomes stable, I'd like to replace woody with etch. But most of space taken on the woody partition consists of the users' /home directories, which are shared (vis symbolic links) between sarge and woody. So I want to do the upgrade without installing from scratch. (Or can the new installer install withoug wiping the existing data?) In particular, I think it is probably worth rerunning the installation-time hardware recognition that might enable it to recognise the ethernet card. This leads to several questions. Can I use the new sarge netinstall to install over top of the woody system without losing user data? I really only need enough sarge (or etch) to get the ethernet working. Where are all the user and configuration data anyway? Obviously in /home and /etc, respectively. But there's not so obviously also /usr/local, and /var/spool/mail. Where else does this kind of stuff hang out? Can I burn the first sarge CD, change my sources.list to point to it instead of the seven woody CDs, and do a dist-upgrade from aptitude, intending to modify sources.list again to connect to the debian package archives later Or will this result in deleting most of the woody stuff? Can I copy the bulk of the sarge partition to the woody partition (with tar oc cp--archive) replacing most woody system files, and expect the thing to work. Again, I'd have to protect the filesystems that might contain user data for this. And are there esoteric filesystems (like /proc) that need special consideration (or, possible, no copying at all)? -- hendrik -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

I was using, for several years, kdepackage manager as my gui for handeling all package management functions. When I decided to try synaptic & aptitude, kdepackage quit showing the upgrades available. However synaptic seemed to work OK. Today I upgraded apt-cacher, apt-build, & apt-file from synaptic. After these were upgraded synaptic quit showing any upgradeable packages, kde-package is not showing any & dselect is just nuts, it's showing every thing installed is obsolete or local with no upgrades available either. The fact is that every package on my systems seems to be working just fine and all systems, & hardware are OK.

iptables for reach a subdomain
Hi folks, I would like to connect via ssh to my host machine inside a LAN using iptables. In order words, for open two terminals from my job (one for the server and the other one for the machine on the host), I would like to connect to the machine inside throughout a simple redirection. The closer solution I found was that using PAT. But first, I'm not sure if it's the best choice; second, I'm in doubt about the syntax I'm using for iptables: # iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 22 -j REDIRECT --to-port ? Tha was the first idea. But I think that I would loose the connection with-- let me call -- hostB(inside, not public IP). So I thought to give a higher port and make the hostA(server, connected to public internet and NATing my home network) redirect this port number for hostB. That would be: # iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 2200 -j REDIRECT --to-port ? The interrogations mark(?) mean that I'm not sure if I could use, in my case, "--to-port hostB.hostA.homelinux.net" for instance. I don't think so cuz it's a PAT...so it should based on port numbers and not names. Basically, the idea is open a remote connection for hostA using port 22 and, simoutaneously, open a second connection directly to hostB (by passing hostA) using port 2200. So I have: JOB--> INTERNET---> hostA (if port 22)---> hostB | OR | | if (port = 2200) REDIRECT to hostB | --- SERVER HOST eth0: public eth0: private eth1: private Further, hostB is part of hostA domain. Please, if someone has some doubt about this crazy idea, let me know. Thanks Romulo Sousa

What you really want is pbuilder or sbuild. I have used both and recently switched to pbuilder. The documentation for both is actually pretty good. I used sbuild (now pbuilder) to build the packages that I maintain a couple which I customize/backport. Here is what you need: 1. Install fakeroot, sudo, pbuilder and devscripts. 2. Copy /etc/pbuilderrc into ~/.pbuilderrc and customize to taste. 3. Assuming you are running Sarge, you will want to set it up to create a sarge chroot for you. There comments in pbuilderrc that explain. Also be sure and read pbuilderrc(5). 4. 'apt-get source' on the package you would like to customize and change into the resulting directory. 5. do 'debchange --nmu' and add a short changelog entry saying something like "personal customization". You can also modify the end of the version number at the top of the change log. If I am backporting or customizing a package, I usually choose to do a 'dechange --nmu' and then place the package(s) on hold. That ensures that I always see when new versions make it into the archive. 6. Edit the files in the debian/ directory that you need, most likely just the rules file, to achieve the customizations you would like. 7. After you add your customizations, execute: pdebuild --buildsourceroot fakeroot --pbuilderroot sudo --buildresult /usr/local/src/results You can change the buildresult directory to somewhere else, if you like. After that you will have a built package with a new version number that is customized how you like. Here are the options from my ~/.pbuilderrc: BASETGZ=/var/cache/pbuilder/base.tgz BUILDPLACE=/var/cache/pbuilder/build/ MIRRORSITE=http://http.us.debian.org/debian USEPROC=yes USEDEVPTS=yes USEDEVFS=no BUILDRESULT=/var/cache/pbuilder/result/ DISTRIBUTION=sarge APTCACHE="/var/cache/pbuilder/aptcache/ APTCACHEHARDLINK="yes" REMOVEPACKAGES="lilo" HOOKDIR="" export DEBIAN_FRONTEND="noninteractive" DEBEMAIL="" BUILDSOURCEROOTCMD="fakeroot" PBUILDERROOTCMD="sudo" DEBBUILDOPTS="" APTCONFDIR="" BUILDUSERID=1234 BINDMOUNTS="" DEBOOTSTRAPOPTS[0]='--variant=buildd' Let me know if this helps or if you need any more information. -Roberto -- Roberto C.

Help!!! gnome-spell for Evolution 2.0 running on Kanotix/Debian
Hi, I know there is quite a nasty amount of threads all over the place about the Evolution spell checking matter but none applies to my problem. I have recently migrated from Mozilla-thunderbird to Evolution 2.0. I'am running it on a Kanotix/Debian machine. As many of the other threads suggested I have also installed gnome-spell using apt-get install. But, still the window in Tool|Settings|Composer Options|Spell checking does not show anything. The enable button is also greyed out. Does anyone know how to fix this? I like Evolution alot but the without a spell checker...well, I don't know.

Software configuration question
Hello, I'm fairly new to debian as I come from a FreeBSD background and have a software question. How do you specify options for building your software with apt-get? Example: When building software, I'm use to: ./configure , make, make install. (Like if I want to configure apache with certain options) Now, with apt-get, it just goes and does it with no intervention. I tried apt-get source but I don't understand what to do as the source,it looks different than what I'm use to. Thanks for any help. -- Jason

I don't always get coasters, but if I specify speed=24 the machine is almost completely not responsive for the whole operation, the buffer min fill always very low or 0, and the average burn speed ends up being about 16x. If I specify 16x, the machine is still fairly responsive, I never get a coaster, and the average burn speed is still 16x. I also wonder if anyone might know what is going on. The only difference between your machine and mine is that I have an AMD 2500+ CPU and am running kernel 2.6.8. -Roberto -- Roberto C.

Especially if you were originally on Woody and went to Sarge (testing). There have been so many fundamental changes to the way that the packages are organized, that going back is sure to only cause headaches. Your two options are: 1) Change your sources to sarge (to ensure you don't continue to track Etch when it becomes testing), and upgrade the whole system. Sarge is about to go officially stable, so this is not really that bad. 2) Rebuild the system, as you have suggested. My only question is, why bother? If you feel you may need to rebuild, you might as well go the whole upgrade route first. Since the worst thing that can happen is that you end up needing a reinstall.

/etc/modprobe.d/sound does't work
Hi there, Linux without sound sucks. Please help me sort it out. I'm struggling to get my sound card nm256av working under kernel 2.6.11. As some searches from google tell me, the alsa driver for neomagic 2200 has problem. It can detect the souncard but can't drive it correctly. QUOTE from http://www.linups.org/modules/doc/documentos/thinkpad-us/thinkpad-us.html ... "With a first look it may seem enough to enable the NM256AV/NM256ZX audio driver, but it's not even near the truth, because there are two versions of the NeoMagic audio chip: AV, SoundBlaster compatible and ZX, AC97 compatible. This driver enables AC97 sound and it doesn't work for the AV chip." ... I try to use some alternative drivers like opl3sa2/es423x etc. But the problem is when you make any changes to /etc/modprobe.d/sound followed by update-modules, the system will still dectect the soundcard as nm256 and load the driver nm256 (I guess this is due to hotplug??). My question is how to tell the hotplug not to handle the sound card automatically and how to get the settings in /etc/modprobe.d/sound to work? Many thanks for any help.-- With best wishes!Shidai

udev, usb mouse et Xfree
I have a little problem with my X, usb mouse and udev. It works great, udev make a symlink from /dev/input/mouseX to /dev/usbmouse. In my X config , I use /dev/usbmouse. The problem is when I remove and try to replug my mouse. I can't get it to work anymore. If I use a symlink from /dev/usbmouse to /dev/input/mouse0, when I replug the mouse, the /dev/input/mouse0 is not accessible anymore (used by X?) and udev set the mouse to mouse1 (or mouse2 then my touchpas is active). I tried to tell udev to name my mouse /dev/usbmouse (not a symlink). It works, even in X, but I can't use the mouse in X. 'cat /dev/usbmouse' give me output, but no screen movement...
