Keeping uid (<500) in sync
Hi
I was wondering how (in debian land) do people keep gid's and uid for <500 (ie
the system, daemon in sync on multiple machines.
I just spent 10 min trying to work out why my bind9 would not start, why
because I just installed my ldap package which works great for uid& gid > 500.
system uid& gid get created as needed so depending which order you install
packages will determine which order (and thus ) uid& gid are created and
numbered
so right now my toolbox consists of find -uid || -gid -exec and vim
/etc/{passwd|group}

Re: Getting started with Xen -- Xen enabled kernel for Lenny?
Martin Thanks for your information, you will find my reply further down. Martin Marcher wrote: On Thursday 24 January 2008 17:13 Ted Hilts wrote: Martin What is the exact kernel version you are running on both machines and what are their CPU designations? The problems in the past have not been with the distribution but with various kernels. Did you compile your systems from source or did you use pre-compiled packages? Did you compile the source and apply a patch for the kernels or did you use kernel binaries with the Xen package already compiled into the kernel binaries? the "xen package" isn't compiled into the kernel afaik, you still need some userland stuff to start/stop (interface) the domUs. Martin Thanks for your information further down from these comments. I did not snip out the information below my following comments as I thought the information to be useful not just to me but to others that may be aware of our dialog. As I remember, the package as I call it consists of 2 integrated parcels of code. One parcel of code is integrated into the kernel as a patch and the other as you mentioned is like a dependent parcel for managing the operations. But definitely, the kernel is altered and has attributes the un-patched kernel does not have. So one either applies the patch or one gets a binary that has already been patched. Sounds to me you obtained a kernel binary that was pre-patched for use with Xen. There is no way the ordinary kernel can become the core of an Xen system without the patch. However, Intel hardware changes associated with the CPU chip may change that -- I simply do not know. Also, I was talking about kernel versions higher than yours (up in the twenties where yours was 18) and 32 bit. But whether the CPU is 32 bit on 64bit machines could be a problem, I don't know. Also, the AMD was the only working CPU architecture available on Debian and I don't know why that was the case. Many people do not use AMD as their CPU architecture. Somewhere, just before etch was declared as STABLE the AMD Xen stuff failed to work properly and this condition was verified by someone (I don't have the name handy) who was doing some kind of liaison between Debian and Xen. That's why I said it did not work on Debian. This liaison person has already confirmed that and was attempting to find a way around no Debian Xen until the next stable version (which seems to be on its way or is already here). So it seems by my information the Xen Debian problem occurred on the 2.6 kernel at some point and there were many requests on the debian-user list asking why they could not get the AMD Xen stuff to work. So it will be interesting to see if things have now changed. I don't doubt your set up works and works well but I am willing to bet that the etch stable kernel version will not work for you. Maybe, with Debian 4.0 the problem has been resolved -- hope so! I did not snip out the rest of the stuff. Thanks -- Ted Looking forward to this information.

Thanks for that lead. On Thinkwiki.org (http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/NVidia_Quadro_NVS_140m), I found that support for my chip began with the Nvidia 100.14.09 driver version (June 2007), while the etch stable package nvidia-glx uses the 1.0-8776 version (Oct 2006).

I don't remember what the native xfce4 term is, I always used gnome-terminal. In the past, I installed XFCE4 then I would install things like quanta or gnome-terminal as needed. Now days, I just run gnome, so I am a bit rusty on what apps (like click on the file manager) opens what apps (the real app, like nautilus). BTW, you can set up nautilus to NOT take over your desktop by running nautilus --no-desktop IIRC, but I think that XFCE4 does this by default. Jimmy, I have a pounding headache right now, so I will probably not respond back anymore today, HTH! -- Damon L.

getting gnome out of xfce4 in debian
I like xfce4 because it is lighter than GNOME and yet has almost as many features. I used the netinstall CD to install a Debian desktop, and it gave me GNOME. No problem, I installed the xfce4 meta-package. What is strange is how much of GNOME is still present in Xfce4. For example, the launcher to start a graphical terminal emulator starts gnome-terminal. Even the command xfterm4 starts gnome-terminal for some reason I cannot fathom. What I want to hopefully do is remove as much of GNOME as possible, and have an independent xfce4 desktop instead of this bizarre amalgam. However, I would like to keep the convenient system configuration tools (like power management, etc) that GNOME offers but Xfce4 lacks. Is there any simple, _clean_ way to do this? The cleanest way I can think of is to reinstall using the Debian xfce4 iso and add the gnome utilities one by one, but that would be a real hassle, involving downloading and burning an iso and going through the whole install process all over.

Anyone here familiar with this program (mscompress)? It allows one to either expand (msexpand) or compress (mscompress) from or to ms .exe. I am wanting to expand an ms .exe to extract some files, and I can't figure out what the message I'm getting from msexpand means exactly. Whenever I run "msexpand *.exe" I get the following response: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/tmp/expand$ msexpand Install_Messenger.exe Install_Messenger.exe: Doesn't end with underscore -- ignored [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/tmp/expand$ I tried sudo, same output.

Here is Central Ontario, Canada - shipping a complete terminal was a tongue in cheek crack to the gentleman in LA, USA The VT220 and 320s I have all take a custom keyboard that was their downfall - it died before the terminal. The Wyse 50's and 60's took a custom keyboard too - but with them the terminal itself died first. Heck, I might still have some terminal manuals although I did pitch a lot of that stuff last summer. The serial card is a PCI card - IBM branded - Serial controller: Equinox Systems, Inc. SST-16P RJ Adapter (rev 4) There's a second one that's now unused as well, but I'm not going to shut down that server to remove it :-) Come to think of it - I bet there's a 32 port card and concentrator boxes in our old ( long shelved but not discarded ) RS6000 - but that one would be MCA bus (or whatever that IBM thing was).

My language-of-choice would be a Bash script, or Perl at a push. It's log file rotation, it should be kept simple. One of the reasons I started running Debian was so I would have to do less custom development of scripts and cron jobs, and more "set the following options up after doing a new install". For what it's worth, Apache logfile rotation is very easy with the cronolog package installed - just change the 2 log file lines in the Apache config: ErrorLog "|/usr/bin/cronolog/var/log/apache/error.%Y%m%d.log" That makes cronolog a child process of Apache (one per logfile) and it looks after writing the file, and starting again with a new one after midnight (no need to HUP the server to make it let go of the file). Thet puts it outside of the control of logrotate, though, which may not be what everyone wants. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

Xmms will sometimes show ID3 tags garbled for instance. The "convmv" package might be helpful to convert the names of the ??? files to the proper encoding. For transferring additional files from the flash drive to the hard disk, maybe playing with mount options "iocharset" and "codepage" can ensure proper filename encoding conversion during copying. As far as the ID3 tags are concerned, I suspect that programs like Kid3 or EasyTAG can batch-convert the encoding of the content of the tags, but I never tried something like that myself. -- Regards,| http://users.icfo.es/Florian.Kulzer Florian |

What bus does the serial multi-port card go on (ISA/PCI/PCI-e)? As for the VT220, on of the reasons that I've bought the VT520-A6 is that, while it came with a dedicated keyboard, it can use any normal 101-104 PS/2 keyboard.

My crystal ball tells me that your drive is mounted with the `noexec' option (this is the default for user-mountable devices). You need to mount /media/usb0 with the `exec' option, like this: # mount -o exec /media/usb0 You need to be root to to this, but you can also specify the `exec' option in /etc/fstab.

Direct > attach. Some years back, at my last place of permanent full-time employment before going independent, I managed a herd of Wyse terminals in a manufaturing plant. They were all attached to a quad 800MHz Xeon server with 2G RAM and something like 50G disk (usable - it was more like 150G physical disk, but it was all RAIDed). I'd estimate it was somewhere on the order of 75 Wyse terms, plus another 75-100 ssh sessions from the desktop systems in the office and a couple dozen Neoware X terminals that we were using instead of the Wyses on new installs/replacements. It handled all that along with running the company's ERP database and an average of 5 print jobs/second (albeit mostly small ones - the vast majority were barcode labels) and never missed a beat. I can't speak to the "let the fancy new computer do the interrupt stuff" part, though, as every connection came in over ethernet, going to either terminal servers or print servers as needed, partly for simplicity, but mostly because a lot of the equipment was a couple hundred meters away from the server room. But I never really thought of that server as being terribly special in what it was handling. I was far more impressed by the single-CPU Athlon server (of about the same age, although I don't recall its cpu speed) with 1G RAM that served up X sessions to all those Neowares and several of the office computers. It generally had 40-50 sessions active, but still kept a nice, low load average and CPU utilization almost all the time and I never heard any complaints about responsiveness from anyone other than the one manager who couldn't bear the idea of using anything that wasn't Windows. Back to the original question, though, "I wonder how many VT-520s a modern computer could support?", I'd expect that to be well into 4 digits and 5 wouldn't surprise me at all.

Re: Installing KDE4 on Sid
Decided to try it: 1. In /etc/profile, moved all the old /opt/kdedir stuff to last on path, ld_library_path. 2. /etc/init.d/kdm restored to the maintainers version (I had changed it to run the old kde3.5). 3. Ran ldconfig 4. /etc/init.d/kdm start Got the new, default configured login dialog. Logged in. Got the new splash screen. Then the slew of crash boxes. Before I changed the PATH stuff, I got knotify4 crashes only. KDE 3.5 came up. Now got crashes of kcminit and most everything else. When I had a taskbar, it showed kde3.5 and an app such as kmail listed the kde3.5.6 versions. Additionally, kdm ALWAYS gives: Previous KDM did not end with share/config, could reek havok. Very encouraging, but after putting stuff back to my kde3.5 paths and kdm, I am up and running without any crashes. In addition to all those missing kcmshell menu items in kcontrol and the configure menu, the following problems were encountered in kde3.5: 1. kmail send configuration was gone. 1 Minute to replace and stuck even after today's errors. Everything else just fine. 2. Opera has become the default browser when using the bookmarks menu.

That would indeed be interesting for the program to recognize and display what is being keyed; that would be a good training aid for producing clean code; if the computer can't read your hand, the ham on the other side of the world will have trouble reading it also. -- Kent -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

For one key, a short "dit" audio tone would be generated, and for the other key, a longer "dah" audio tone would be generated. I need to bypass the keyboard buffer, so that holding down the dit key for two seconds doesn't generate 30 dits; it should produce dits while the key is held down, but once the key is let up, the dits should immediately stop (after finishing the one it's on). Found kbhit(), found beep. But it's not trivial to press '<' and have the sound quit when you stop pressing: it keeps beeping until the keyboard buffer is empty I guess. Do beeping in the background?

But it's way too complex for the average non-programming ham radio operator. I've about concluded that there's not a simple solution (and definitely not a simple cross-platform solution) for what I wanted to do. Sadly, I think it's a lost cause. I had thought about dropping the cross-platform requirement, and just suggesting to everyone to use a Knoppix LiveCD to do this PC-cum-Morse-keyer program, but from this discussion, and my own personal failure to find a solution, I think it's not going to happen. Too bad; I think a lot of the hams would have enjoyed writing a simple little program to turn their PCs into a Morse keyer. I am no radio hammmer (?) no morse code since I was a boyscout 60 years ago. But I would think that one would rather use let's say the space bar as a key for either dit's or dah's. Or alternatively just type text and the program would translate in dit's and dah's. More interesting would be to use the key and see if the program can read what is being keyed.

pxelinux.0 and bsd.rd
Hi, I'm trying to add the option for installing openBSD to our pxe boot server (debian/etch), I got bsd.rd from a mirror and placed LABEL openbsd_i386_42 KERNEL openbsd/i386/42/bsd.rd in the pxelinux.cfg/default for that all I get is: Invalid or corrupt kernel image ok, next try (found this on a few mailing lists but I have a feeling that's a feature that is not available): LABEL openbsd_i386_42 KERNEL memdiskappend APPEND initrd=openbsd/i386/42/bsd.rd -- I get: Could not find kernel image: memdiskapped (The same is true for "memdisk" only) Last thing i came up with was: LABEL openbsd_i386_42 KERNEL openbsd/42/i386/floppy42.fs which loads, but then it's just weird colored output. I have a feeling that pxelinux.0 (from debian/etch) is just incapable of booting openbsd kernels. Or is there anything I'm missing in the config? Note I'm not using syslinux I just installed tftp-hpa specified my root dir, put the pxlinux.0 boot.txt pxelinux.cfg/default in it which all works fine for linux installations. I'd like to avoid installing more stuff and keep it simple by just adding the necessary switches to pxelinux.cfg/default if that is possible thanks martin -- http://noneisyours.marcher.name http://feeds.feedburner.com/NoneIsYours You are not free to read this message, by doing so, you have violated my licence and are required to urinate publicly.

No sound on a ThinkPad T61 w/ a AD1984 sound card
Hello there, I've been unable to get sound working (for more than a short while, more on that in a minute) on my ThinkPad T61, which has an Analog Devices 1984 (AD1984) sound controller. I'm currently running Debian lenny (2.6.22-3-686 kernel, alsa 1.0.15). When at first the sound didn't work, I followed the instructions at http://www.klabs.be/~fpiat/linux/debian/Lenny_on_Thinkpad_T61/#Sound; that is, to run: apt-get install module-assistant alsa-source module-assistant prepare module-assistant update module-assistant a-i alsa-source apt-get remove --purge alsa-modules-$(uname -r) invoke-rc.d alsa-utils restart and then open volume control, go to the "Switch" tab, untick and retick the speaker tab, unmute PCM, and then press the "volume up" button on the keyboard a few times (to eliminate the hardware mute, I believe). To my delight, this worked. However, when I shut down and later rebooted, nothing worked anymore. Redoing all of these steps didn't help. Bizarrely, the volume control application no longer even has the "Switch" tab, so I can't follow part of the steps anymore. I've googled around, but haven't come across anything that looked like it could resolve my problem. In some desperation I tried reinstalling lenny, and even then when I followed the above steps nothing worked. Any thoughts?

Re: X & interesting problem
Number one : I'm using Debian lenny repository. My desktop is gnome & my desktop manager is gdm. When i don't X server, it means i work with just console, i can switch to other consoles(with CTRL+ALT+F1...F7) But when i start gdm it means my X is up, i can't switch to other consoles. By default [1] things work like this: * If you are on X you can switch to say tty1 by pressing "CTRL+ALT+F1". * If you are on tty1 you can switch to tty2 by pressing "ALT+F2". * If you are on tty2 you can switch back to X by pressing "ALT+F7". I am stating this because your description was not clear enough for me. So, doesn't it work like this on your computer? Number two: Somtimes my monitor is became blank. Even i run reboot command or i run init 6, It is became blank. You need to be more precise! Maybe it's your X configuration, maybe it's a hardware issue. s.
