config kernel très recents optimisées p our asus eeepc (récent pas 701 ou 900) compatible avec debian lenny
Bonjour la liste, je prépare une install pour un eeepc 1201n : je sais maintenant que je dois prendre l'arch amd64. Je vais tenter d'installer la stable. mais bon le 2.6.26 ne contient pas les drivers pour le 1201n. donc je dois upgrader...et quitte à upgrader je recompile comme j'ai tjs fait sous debian sid. Comme je suis un peu fainéant, je cherche des fichiers de config pour les noyaux récents (à partir du 2.6.30) et optimisés pour les eeepc récents aussi. Si vous avez ça en stock...envoyé moi ça, s'il vous plait!

curseur de souris pas visible au démarrage
bonjour, j'utilise debian unstable, et depuis quelques semaines, j'ai un problème de curseur de souris: après que mon ordinateur, X, et mon window manager aient démarré, le curseur de la souris n'est pas visible. La souris semble fonctionnelle: je peux effectuer des sélections, ou même cliquer si j'arrive à bien viser, mais le curseur n'est pas visible. Il devient visible à partir du moment où je repasse en console (Ctrl-Alt-F1) puis revient sur mon window manager (Ctrl-Alt-F7). J'utilise le driver intel, je n'ai pas de fichier /etc/X11/xorg.conf, et mon window manager est icewm. D'après vous, de quel côté est-t-il intéressant de chercher ? Qu'est-ce que je peux peux faire pour identifier le problème ? a+ arno -- Lisez la FAQ de la liste avant de poser une question : http://wiki.debian.org/fr/FrenchLists Vous pouvez aussi ajouter le mot ``spam'' dans vos champs From et Reply-To: Pour vous DESABONNER, envoyez un message avec comme objet unsubscribe vers debian-user-french-requ...@lists.debian.org En cas de soucis, contactez EN ANGLAIS listmas...@lists.debian.org

comprendre/configurer mon lan avec modem SpeedTouch
Bonjour, j'essaye de comprendre comment configurer et faire fonctionner mon lan. Certaines choses ne sont pas claires, malgré la lecture de docs (livres ou la référence debian), donc je viens demander de l'aide. J'ajoute que je suis néophyte en ce qui concerne le réseau. Voici ma config. matérielle/logicielle: * divers PC (bureau ou portable) tournant sous lenny ou etch (ou sous XP en dual boot) et un boîtier serveur d'impression + un switch + un modem-routeur SpeedTouch 530 connecté en ethernet (en PPPoA). * Le modem me sert de serveur DHCP et de DNS pour mon lan. J'aimerais l'utiliser pour communiquer entre mes machines avec leurs noms de machine et pas leur IP. Sur la page web du modem (10.0.0.138) je peux lire les IP allouées aux PC connectés. Mon /etc/network/interfaces contient par exemple (PC d'où j'écris) # The loopback network interface auto lo iface lo inet loopback # The primary network interface allow-hotplug eth0 iface eth0 inet dhcp Sur la page web du modem je peux lire une table de noms d'hôtes DNS: Numéro Nom d'hôte Adresse 1 SpeedTouch 2 PS-71CB20 10.0.0.1 Le numéro 2 correspond au boîtier serveur d'impression, branché en permanence. Donc je ne vois pas apparaître les autres PC connectés, alors qu'ils sont bien connectés, puisque l'onglet Baux me le confirme (l'interface eth0 que j'utilise en ce moment a l'IP 10.0.0.4). D'après la doc en ligne de mon modem les machines, au moment de l'allocation d'IP, devraient communiquer leur nom au serveur DHCP. Il n'y a chez moi que le boîtier serveur d'impression qui le fait. J'ai essayé plusieurs choses: 1) rajouter un client dans mon fichier interfaces: # The loopback network interface auto lo iface lo inet loopback # The primary network interface allow-hotplug eth0 iface eth0 inet dhcp client Siula-Grande Malheureusement, d'après le man interfaces, cette option client ne marche qu'avec les clients dhcpcd et udhcpc, or j'utilise dhclient3. Donc c'est logique que ça ne marche pas. 2) Dans mon /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf j'ai essayé plusieurs choses, mais aucune ne marche: * activer la ligne: send hostname Siula-Grande.lan; (en faisant avant un sudo ifdown eth0 et après un sudo ifup eth0) * activer plutôt les lignes: send fqdn.fqdn Siula-Grande.lan; send fqdn.server-update on; * activer la ligne: send dhcp-client-identifier Siula-Grande; Bref, je ne comprend pas. Quelqu'un a-t-il une idée?? Merci d'avance. Cdlt, Frédéric. PS: par ailleurs, je ne comprends pas pourquoi j'ai les processus suivants qui sont lançés: dhcdbd (/usr/sbin/dhcdbd --system) dhclient (dhclient eth0) dhclient3 (dhclient3 -pf /var/run/dhclient.eth0.pid -lf /var/lib/dhcp3/dhclient.eth0.leases eth0) dnsmasq (/usr/sbin/dnsmasq -u dnsmasq -r /var/run/dnsmasq/resolv.conf) Pourquoi deux clients dhcp sont-ils lancés?

Je vais quand même persévérer dans ce sens vu que la config d'ubuntu ne devrait pas être trop éloignée de celle de lenny. 1- trudububu utilise un truc genre network-manager, debibubu aussi, d'ailleurs il l'a installé lui même sur mon portable (à l'install de lenny), sans que je n'ai rien demandé... ce qui explique que la modif des fichiers soit insuffisante je ne l'ai pas dit, mais j'ai quand même regardé et changé les fichiers de conf de network-manager (ceux qui me paraissaient importants).

This would not work, ich you have functions loaded from ~/.bashrc which some_func_in_memory return nothing... I did basic homework of searching the manpages of bash, history and also google a bit, but didn't find anything useful. The only possibilit ist to use bash native command to save the current history manualy, then use an dedicated program (simple bash script using dialog/xdialog) which load the saved history delete the erronus lines, save it back and reload it from your bash.

Re: Setting up Atheros Ar5001 wifi
I am have a Toshiba Satelite LD300 laptop with the AR5001 wifi card. I installed Sueeze on it and the two things that I cannot get to work are the wireless card ...snip... Thanks Sebi for you reply. Unfortunately, madwifi-(source|tools|modules) are not in the testing repositories. In the absence of them what are my options. Backports? I see that they are in etch and lenny. Do I have to downgrade my installation in order to get it working? No there's no need to downgrade the whole system. You could go for apt-pinning, which essentially means that you'll fetch the package-lists from various releases (testing, stable, unstable) and configure apt to prefer one of them so that when you install/upgrade it automagically choses the distro you prefer but you'll see all the available packages in your synaptics/aptitude/apt-get-lists. This is achieved by: 1. add the relevant repositories to your /etc/apt/sources.list (e.g. add the stable or lenny repositories, also make sure you have the non-free branches included as that's where the madwifi-* packages reside), then change the file /etc/apt/preferences (create it if it doesn't exist yet) to something like this: a...@hexbrex:~$ cat /etc/apt/preferences Package: * Pin: release a=testing Pin-Priority: 700 Package: * Pin: release a=stable Pin-Priority: 650 the above entries basically tell apt-get Co. to prefer the testing versions of any package over the stable ones (the higher Pin-Priorities are the preferred ones). But it'll be able to see all the packages from all the releases included in your sources.list. Then run 'apt-get update' or 'aptitude update' or whatever other way you use to update your package-cache. Now you should be able to install madwifi et al. There's also a bit of configuration to be done in /etc/modprobe.d/madwifi, uncomment the line: blacklist ath5k and comment out all the lines below ## madwifi (non-free) Hope that helps Also I think there might be different AR5001-Chipsets, as: a...@hexbrex:~$ lspci |grep -i ath 02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications Inc.

Iceweasel repeatedly hangs for 5 seconds
My system is a 1.8 GHz Pentium using Debian stable. I update frequently from debian.org. Several weeks ago, I started noticing that Iceweasel would sometimes stop responding to mouse or keyboard inputs for about five seconds. After each such hang it would resume operating normally. For example, while reading a web page I would try to scroll down by clicking on the down arrow at the bottom of the scroll bar. Nothing would happen, so I would click once or twice again, with no response. After a few seconds, the window would suddenly scroll to the bottom of the page - as if responding to all the backlogged mouse clicks. I could not identify the problem with any particular software install or update. Of course, the problem may have been happening for weeks before I noticed the pattern of hangs. After some Googling, I thought the problem might be related to Java or Flash, so in Edit-Preferences I disabled Java, and I installed Flashblock 5.1.11.2. This appeared to have no effect on the frequency with which the hangs occurred. Also I tried to identify the problem with specific web sites. I most often had the problem on newspaper websites, e.g. www.theglobeandmail.com, but it seemed to occur intermittently on other sites as well. Because of the random nature of the problem I have not been able to decide whether it occurs on all websites or just some websites. To further isolate the problem I ran top in a Gnome terminal. To be specific, I ran terminal, su'ed to root, then lucy:/home/jack# nice --adjustment=-20 top I arranged the windows so that I could use iceweasel without covering up the terminal window, then browsed until a hang happened. What this showed was that during a hang, iceweasel (firefox-bin) was using close to 100% of the CPU. However, this did not stop the terminal or any other application from responding. In fact, further testing showed that during a hang, if I was quick, I could go to another application window, use the mouse or keyboard and get a response, then return to iceweasel, and iceweasel would still not respond until after a significant delay. By going to the terminal window that had top running, and hitting ^C during a hang, I captured the following top output - which is typical of what I saw during hangs: top - 15:57:35 up 28 days, 19:23, 3 users, load average: 0.66, 0.62, 0.47 Tasks: 173 total, 3 running, 170 sleeping, 0 stopped, 0 zombie Cpu(s): 96.7%us, 2.6%sy, 0.0%ni, 0.0%id, 0.0%wa, 0.3%hi, 0.3%si, 0.0%st Mem:775980k total, 763664k used,12316k free,16904k buffers Swap: 9767512k total, 118268k used, 9649244k free, 372708k cached PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEMTIME+ COMMAND 6895 jack 20 0 216m 125m 21m R 93.0 16.5 2:48.19 firefox-bin 6027 root 10 -10 114m 26m 7460 S 6.6 3.5 5:04.60 Xorg 7022 root 0 -20 2520 1176 884 R 0.7 0.2 0:00.10 top 1 root 20 0 2100 428 400 S 0.0 0.1 0:21.94 init If anyone can identify this problem, or offer suggestions about how to further narrow it down, I would appreciate it.

And what is the relevant syntax and (more importantly) where can one read about all of this and learn about it? The state of documentation for Grub2 is beyond lamentable. And that is surely part of the reason why the transition to Grub2 has been one of the most poorly managed of all of the transitions I've dealt with in my 14 (otherwise excellent) years with Debian, I edit /root/grub.cfg (I copied grub.cfg into that directory; it is not there by default) and copy it over to /boot/grub/grub.cfg because I do not like the correct way of updating grub.cfg. The correct way is to edit the variables in /etc/default/grub and run update-grub (which runs grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg). update-grub runs the scripts in /etc/grub.d/ and /etc/grub.d/00_something will use the /etc/default/grub variables to set up the default boot kernel, the kernel options, the graphic mode, whether to use UUIDs, whether to create single menuentry stanzas, whether to hide the menu, etc (similarly to the interaction of grub1's update-grub and the AUTOMAGIC KERNELS LIST section of grub1's menu.lst). I more or less agree with your characterization of grub2's documentation. When I started using grub2 with the Ubuntu 9.10 alphas in September/October, documentation was scarce. I was cleaning up my saved urls in the last two weeks and some of the links that I had saved (on archlinux.org, kubuntuforums.net, ubuntu.com, ubuntuforums.org) now have some some pretty good grub2 documentation. The gnu.org grub2 page leads (bizarrely) to a grub2 wiki at engrub.org or enbug.org (I have forgotten) for a manual/help. There is some good information there too but it feels like a work in progress that is not fully up to date (there is an interesting/educative beta of a man page for update-grub, which must have been at the time of writing THE script to create grub.cfg, now superceded by grub-mkconfig). There is also a man page for grub.cfg that does not exist elsewhere. I have not searched very thoroughly but I have only come across http://wiki.debian.org/GrubTransition as a Debian-specific, -sourced grub2 instruction. What I found interesting about this thread is that the OP found a non-grub2 way of restoring his boot-up look in spite of using grub2... I assume that he has set GRUB_TERMINAL=console in /etc/default/grub (or terminal console in /boot/grub/grub.cfg) when he made the /etc/default/console-setup changes that he posted earlier, rather than go the terminal gfxterm, etc way. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

RE: Setting up Atheros Ar5001 wifi
Da No there's no need to downgrade the whole system. You could go for apt-pinning, which essentially means that you'll fetch the package-lists from various releases (testing, stable, unstable) and configure apt to prefer one of them so that when you install/upgrade it automagically choses the distro you prefer but you'll see all the available packages in your synaptics/aptitude/apt-get-lists. This is achieved by: 1. add the relevant repositories to your /etc/apt/sources.list (e.g. add the stable or lenny repositories, also make sure you have the non-free branches included as that's where the madwifi-* packages reside), then change the file /etc/apt/preferences (create it if it doesn't exist yet) to something like this: a...@hexbrex:~$ cat /etc/apt/preferences Package: * Pin: release a=testing Pin-Priority: 700 Package: * Pin: release a=stable Pin-Priority: 650 the above entries basically tell apt-get Co. to prefer the testing versions of any package over the stable ones (the higher Pin-Priorities are the preferred ones). But it'll be able to see all the packages from all the releases included in your sources.list. Then run 'apt-get update' or 'aptitude update' or whatever other way you use to update your package-cache. Now you should be able to install madwifi et al. There's also a bit of configuration to be done in /etc/modprobe.d/madwifi, uncomment the line: blacklist ath5k and comment out all the lines below ## madwifi (non-free) Hope that helps Hi Sebi, I have done as you indicated in your email but now the wireless card is not even detected after a restart.

Many people have surrendered due to frustration and given up building a custom kernel. Kudos to you for sticking it out until you got it the first time. As Dave states, building others gets easier over time as you learn more and get comfortable with the process and gain intimate knowledge of your hardware. Good job! -- Stan P.S. If you care to diff the files or just manually browse for differences, here's the .config that results in my 1.5MB kernel package. Also note that I do not use an initrd, but boot the kernel directly, and that this is a headless server so there's no need for a GPU driver and the space it eats. I'm no expert custom kernel guy, so I'm sure there are some optimizations and such that I've missed, or places where I've been lazy or unsure of an option. However, my kernel is small by most server standards, and my system does everything I throw at it, so apparently I'm not missing anything critical. A couple of hints to start getting your kernel size down: 1. Check Optimize for size in make menuconfig under General setup (if you're not already) and read the help so you know what it's doing. 2. If you have currently installed all the possible file system drivers in your kernel (* not M), remove the unneeded ones during your next run. I.e. include Ext2/3, but remove Ext4, Reiserfs, JFS, XFS, and OCFS2. Unless you need any of them, also eliminate all of the Miscellaneous filesystems. Same goes for Network filesystems. Unless you need NFS or CIFS client or server support, eliminate these. This is just a small start at trimming some fat. You'll find many more opportunities by analyzing the .config below. As you'll see, I run a very minimal sparse kernel--only what I *need* is included (AFAIK). Actually, come to think of it, I could probably remove my piix IDE driver since the recent upgrade to a SATA PCI card and HD. I'm running libata now and could have it control my IDE CDROM as well as the SATA HD. Removing piix might save a paltry few KB. ;) I've kept them separate until now for stability/reliability.

On 2009-12-28 at 00:24:48 +0100, Tom H wrote, What I found interesting about this thread is that the OP found a non-grub2 way of restoring his boot-up look in spite of using grub2... I assume that he has set GRUB_TERMINAL=console in /etc/default/grub (or terminal console in /boot/grub/grub.cfg) when he made the /etc/default/console-setup changes that he posted earlier, rather than go the terminal gfxterm, etc way. Actually, what I did was to de-install grub (as referred to by Squeeze, grub2 as referred to by Lenny) and install lilo instead. I thought about going back to grub-legacy (as referred to by Squeeze, grub as referred to by Lenny). I knew that the original grub would support the vga option, including vga=ask; but I was afraid that some script would see an update-grub command on the system and assume that grub (as referred to by Squeeze, grub2 as referred to by Lenny) was installed, when in reality grub-legacy (as referred to by Squeeze, grub as referred to by Lenny) was installed. So I installed lilo instead. lilo supports the vga option, including vga=ask, does everything that I need it to do, and does not result in any confusion, either on my part or the part of install scripts, as to which version of grub is installed. Subsequent posters have suggested ways to get grub (as referred to by Squeeze, grub2 as referred to by Lenny) to set the video mode; but by then I had already solved that part of the problem another way and didn't wish to tear up the pea patch again. (If it isn't broken, don't fix it!) The other half of the problem, that of loading the desired font, I was able to accomplish with console-setup, thanks to the help of Dave Witbrodt. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Re: Iceweasel repeatedly hangs for 5 seconds
Hello Sun, Thank you for telling me about safe mode - I did not know about it. Sure enough, the problem seems to disappear in safe mode. I compared my profile with another user's profile. That user had not noticed the hang problem. The only difference in the profiles is that the other profile did not have Torbutton. So I uninstalled Torbutton from my profile. After 1 hour of use, I have not noticed the hang problem. Checking further, I found that I did not have Debian package iceweasel-torbutton installed on my system. I must have installed it direct from the mozilla website, which may have caused the problem. After some further testing, I will install the Debian iceweasel-torbutton package and see if I can use it without problems. Thanks also to the others who commented.
