Netlimiter liike tool
Ok, this is bugging me immensely. I'm getting tired of applications on my linux box hogging all my BW. Unfortunately most of 'em haven't wised up to the whole self-limiting of bandwidth. The primary culprit right now is Apache. Every time Google or Yahoo (normally at the same time) decide to pull links they hit some pictures I have (which are lots) and the rest of my connections go to hell. I could limit them with robot.txt, for example, but that's not what I want to do. I want to be able to tell Apache (and other non-self-limiting programs) "you get this much, NO MORE!" Yeah, I could do it with iptables and a whole slew of deep magic. Now, I have the very same problem on Windows. Any time one of my games decides to patch they just happy snarf all bandwidth and crap on the rest of the network. Enter a nice utility called Netlimiter. I open it up. I tell it "such and such program gets x and y bandwidth and no more!" It works. I'm happy. No deep magic involved. Any similar utility, even if it is just a front for iptables, for Debian? -- Steve C.

Going the other way doesn't work synce-pcp -d 3 ~/Documents/'Conference schedule.xls' Conference.xls copes the file into my home directory on my desktop.

Re: backing up a drive
On Mon, 20 Mar 2006, Monique Y. Mudama wrote: I seem to recall that it doesn't. I believe that dd will cause the partition to think it's the size of the original partition. So it "works," but you can only use as much space as the original hard drive had. That's right. It does work in so far as the original filesystem is restored and all it costs you is a little wasted space. For most people a small price to get their system back working, at least in the short term. There may be a way around this limitation or to fix it after performing dd. Following a reimaging from dd the options to expand the filesystem are: 1. Resize the filesystem using suitable tools if possible. or 2. Take the data off using a tool like dump, xfsdump (for xfs), cpio or tar and remake the filesystem before restoring. Of course if any of these work then use them instead of dd in the first instance. dd is really only useful for backups where other tools may not work well (eg, to backup an NTFS file system from Linux when you fear making a new NTFS filesystem may be difficult in the future). dd takes up more space (since it backs up the filesystem rather than the files), is very rigid and does not allow for anything except a full backup.

a question on motherboard replacement - audio problem
I had to replace the motherboard since it no loger works. Old motherboard: http://www.ecs.com.tw/ECSWeb/Products/ProductsDetail.aspx?MenuID=26&LanID =9&DetailID=193&DetailName=Specification New motherboard: http://www.foxconnchannel.com/products_motherboard_2.cfm?pName=K7S741GXMG -6L The new motherboard was the only one available in local market that could allow me to use processor (AMD Athlon 1.4GHz) that I was using in the old one. I preserved the amount of RAM memory (1GB), although I had to change from the type: 168-pin SDRAM DIMM socket (2 cards of 512MB) to the type: 184-pin DIMM socket (1 card of 1GB), respectively from the previous motherboard to the new one. I did not change any other piece of hardware (a 30GB Maxtor hard drive, a Lite-On DVDRW drive, an unknown brand floppy drive, and an AGP nVidia video card successfully works with this new motherboard, using the nvidia drivers set when using the old motherboard). Everything that is in the hard disk, installed using the old motherboard, seems to work well with the new motherboard, except for sound. After installing the new motherboard, I didn't run alsaconf and this is how my sound was "behaving": Gnome events sounds were very distorted and I could not make other applications to obtain any sound. The applications are mplayer; browser plugins like java, mplayer and flash; totem, xmms. Of course the system was using a previous alsa configuration, set for a different sound card. Thus, I ran alsaconf. After I run alsaconf, all the above mentioned applications present a satisfactory sound, however, Gnome events sounds do not play anymore. After I terminate the Gnome session or even restart the computer, the alsaconf setup seem to be lost as the sound condition reverses to the one as described prior the alsaconf with the new motherboard. I noticed this alsa error whenever the system or Gnome restart: No state is present for card SI7012. According to this page: http://www.infosys.tuwien.ac.at/Staff/tg/SiS7012/ the audio in the new motherboard doesn't seem to be unsupported by Linux. Based on the above, and due to the sound issue, should I reinstall Debian Sarge again or is there another thing that I should install or reinstall, or run again, in order to fix this sound issue?

Not important at all, most likely. My asking you about xmodmap was based on the fact that I can do "xmodmap -e 'keycode 64 = ISO_Next_Group'" and this immediately blocks VT switching. This misconfiguration is reflected in the output of xmodmap, i.e. I see "ISO_Next_Group (0x40)" instead of "Alt_L (0x40)". I was hoping that something similar could be the cause of your problem, and that this could be diagnosed from observing similar symptoms. No such luck, obviously. I still think that the problem lies somewhere in the configuration of your X server, since the VT switching works as soon as you leave X by some other means. You are using KDE if I recall correctly; are you also using the graphical login with kdm? There are some known issue related to kdmrc when upgrading from KDE 3.3. (see /usr/share/doc/kdm/NEWS.Debian.gz) Looking at my own /etc/kde3/kdm/kdmrc, I get the feeling that the following section right at the beginning might be relevant for your problem since it mentions the ttys: -8<- [General] ConfigVersion=2.3 ConsoleTTYs=tty1,tty2,tty3,tty4,tty5,tty6 PidFile=/var/run/kdm.pid ReserveServers=:1,:2,:3 ServerVTs=-7 StaticServers=:0 ->8- Another very basic thing to check would be whether a new user account can use VT switching or not. That would at least tell you if the problem is due to a system-wide configuration or your regular user's profile.

IOW, open OO.o in workspace 1. right-click window title and move-to work space 3. switch over there and try it out... teleport back to workspace 1. hmm.. on testing this some more, it seems to be, after the move-to, that right-clicking in the window is the problem... more testing... okay. I think I've got it. any action that produces a new window item -- such as a right-click context menu, or clicking on the menu bar, or ctrl-F (find) which pulls up a new dialog... any windowing related activity jumps you back to the original workspace, and if its a dialog, puts that dialog there. It seems that OO.o doesn't know its been moved to a new workspace, and tries to draw its new widgets in the old workspace. IceWM respects that the focus has shifted to the old workspace and switches you over there. the work around is to open OO.o in the actual workspace you want to use it in. and this is definitely a bug, but with whom, I'm not sure, most likely OO.o as other apps don't have this problem, AFAICT.

Problem with sound in Debian Unstable?
As of Friday I lost sound on my IBM R50 after I did a dist-upgrade. All the drivers load, alsaconf detects the intel chipset correctly and the modules load. Even the alsamixer looks correct, nothing is muted. No sound other than speaker beeps (^G) though. Anyone have any ideas?-- :wq!---Robert L.

I have played around a bit in the meantime and found that it is easily possible to redefine the keyboard behavior in a way which breaks the VT switching; all that is needed is messing with the keysymbols for the CTRL and ALT key. You can use xev (as Jerry Quinn already suggested) to identify the problem. You should see the proper key symbols for "KeyPress" and "KeyRelease" events of CTRL, ALT and F1. I get the following: left CTRL: keycode 37 (keysym 0xffe3, Control_L) left ALT: keycode 64 (keysym 0xffe9, Alt_L) F1:keycode 67 (keysym 0xffbe, F1) I think the keycodes might be different, depending on the layout of your keyboard, but you should have the proper keysyms. If something is wrong you can use "xmodmap" to change it, e.g. $ xmodmap -e "keycode 64 = Alt_L" to make the left ALT key work normally again. This is what I get when I run xmodmap without arguments: $ xmodmap xmodmap: up to 3 keys per modifier, (keycodes in parentheses): shift Shift_L (0x32), Shift_R (0x3e) lockCaps_Lock (0x42) control Control_L (0x25), Control_R (0x6d) mod1Alt_L (0x40), Alt_L (0x7d), Meta_L (0x9c) mod2Num_Lock (0x4d) mod3 mod4Super_L (0x7f), Hyper_L (0x80) mod5Mode_switch (0x5d), ISO_Level3_Shift (0x7c) Maybe a comparison with your output will give you some hints on what goes wrong.

Re: receiving unexpected IP address *outside* of VPN
Thanks Florian, I figured out the chain of depends and recommends which resulted in zeroconf getting installed. It came from installing rhythmbox, then rhythmbox Recommends: scrollkeeper, yelp, avahi-daemon avahi-daemon Recommends: libnss-mdns libnss-mdns Recommends: zeroconf I would that think that rhythmbox should only suggest avahi-daemon? But I that has already been discussed on debian-security (http://www.mail-archive.com/debian-security@lists.debian.org/msg32391.html) and I guess this is just the way it goes.

If you use aptitude in interactive mode you can simply move to the "Packages which depend on zeroconf" section of zeroconf's package description, open it by pressing , go to the first installed package listed there and repeat the process, etc. It also can be done with apt-cache in a more basic manner: $ apt-cache --installed rdepends zeroconf zeroconf Reverse Depends: libnss-mdns kdnssd $ apt-cache --installed rdepends kdnssd kdnssd Reverse Depends: kdenetwork With regard to filing a bug report: It might also be that it is more appropriate to file the bug against zeroconf. After all, it seems to me that Debian packages are normally set up such that the user actually has to uncomment something in a config file before a significant change (such as altering the IP address) takes place. OK, I just checked and it seems that various people have already filed bugs against zeroconf, ranging from "important" to "critical": http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?pkg=zeroconf;dist=unstable The maintainer seems to be somewhat unresponsive to this, though.

Please read "man lilo". ;-) Yep, I have used that several times. However, I ran into a problem a couple times with Woody & Knoppix (whatever the latest Knoppix ver. was back then). For some reason the newer lilo in Knoppix was causing conflicts in Woody. It's been too long so I don't remember all the details... if I would have had to use the Knoppix lilo any time I wanted to update my boot sector (I don't think so) or if lilo didn't like my older boot sector or something weird. Whatever the case, I found a chroot to be a more surefire way of getting it to work. So that's why I recommended a chroot for Hugo. Both are pretty easy though.

Re: Ctrl-Alt-Fx won't switch between virtual consoles after Sarge->Etch
One quick test to try would be to start xev, put the mouse inside, then press C-A-F1. If you get the F1 keycode on the console output, it would at least indicate that X is ignoring the special meaning and that the problem isn't happening at a different layer.

This usually works for me, even if it spits a warning or two. Compile a kernel 2.4.27 and put your sata_$CHIPSET into it. Copy the kernel to the first Woody-Floppy (rescue.bin) and be happy. The Woody installers complains now about the FALSE Kernel modules but ignore it. Woody works perfectly with 2.4.27 ans SATA drives.

Then I have tried the new Daily Netinstall-CD's (now 11 different) with the same errors. I get tonns of messages that it can not find the partitions... Then I was using the OLD Woody-Installer using Linux 2.4.27 without modules (all compiled in) and Oh luck... it works! I think, there is a problem with "udev". Note: I have installed Sarge, Etch and Sid with the same installer (each on a seperated partition) because I want to have chroots and LILO failed.

You need to add those modules to your pcmcia-config. There is a section where you can telle the script what to load.

This is absolutly wrong, because with the first CD you will have a full Network environement. It is only the netinstall which sucks in some cases.

Perhaps you could get around this by There are not realy much CD's... I have splited it into 1) Netinstall 1 CD 2) Baseinstall + Console tools 2 CD 3) X-Window-System 6 CD including OOo 4) Devel 2 CD 5) KDE 3 CD 6) GNOME 2 CD 7) Documentations 1 CD 8) Servers 1 CD I do not have exactly numbers of CD's for each section but it is like this. I am using the popularity-contest to determiner the sequenz ce of the packages on the CD's if one Section has more then it it on ONE CD. If I split strict, I would get 17 CD's instead of 13 as in Debian. But downloads would be reduced to a minimum. If someone does not development she/he will never download those 3 CD's. I have never installed KDE or GNOME which reduce automaticaly 5 CD's.
