Sinon, l'installation se fait dans le dossier perso. Tu l'as fait récemment? Parce que j'ai essayé hier soir (avec GE 5.2) et déjà la procédure d'installation ne fonctionne pas.

L'installation se déroule bien mais ensuite l'appli ne se lance pas... J'ai donc encore cherché et j'ai trouvé qu'il y avait soit un problème avec la libGL soit avec libexpat. J'ai donc essayé en téléchargeant une libGL à mettre dans le répertoire de GE, l'appli se lance mais l'affichage est perturbé. J'ai aussi essayé en préchargeant la libexpat avec LD_PRELOAD, l'appli se lance également mais si l'affichage est correct elle ne fonctionne pas correctement (recherches ne fonctionnent entre autre). Au final j'ai cru comprendre que le problème viendrait de la libbase de GE qui aurait des symboles en conflit avec la libexpat.

Cara, isso ta parecendo HD. Que tipo de HD você usa ?

802.11 WPA network key prompt despite GNOME keyring
Hi I am trying to use a 802.11 wireless network that frequently disconnects me (low signal). The network is protected with WPA pre-shared key. The problem is I am being prompted for this key every time. Well, almost every. When I log in, I do not have to type the key. It is stored in the GNOME keyring (I use nm-editor 0.6.6 for that). But then, when it disconnects, I have to type it again and again. Why? And sometimes it doesn't prompt me, and failes to authenticate also. :-| I had to delete the network entry from the GNOME keyring (nm-editor), get *prompted* for the key, and *then* I was authenticated. 8-| What's wrong??!

Hi, For starters, try finfind answers to your questions, it'll save you time. Most of what you asked can be answered by browsing around debian.org, the list archives or searching. As for versions, i'd stick with stable. Personally i use unstable for desktops but it does have its occasional quirks (X not starting up being one of them). Contribution is up to you, i don't call the shots but tend to think the best way to contribute is to report bugs. For your hard-drive setup, read about LVM and/or RAID, i think that's what you want. The installation can be done from different media; CDs, flash drives, through bootp, minimal net install... The debian site has an installation manual that'll keep you busy for hours.

You can upgrade from Stable to Unstable but for the most part that is a one-way street. It isn't supported to downgrade from Unstable to Stable or Testing. Testing is the staging area for the next Stable. The currently Testing release is Squeeze. Squeeze is getting close to release and hopefully very soon it will be promoted to Stable but it hasn't happened yet. These really are not different distributions. These are stages in the overall pipeline of packages. Packages enter in Unstable. After a few days of aging if too many problems are not found then they are promoted into Testing.

If I need an installation image and really just need it once or twice then I always use the netinst image. You would be good to start with the netinst image. You may also download a CD containing a full system image. I like using CD #1 because for me it is most versatile. DO NOT TRY TO DOWNLOAD ALL OF THE CD OR DVD IMAGES!

Corrupted FS every 50 checks
Hi, I have the fs' checking period set to 50 mounts for now some years. The problem is that I always get errors when e2fsck verifies the fs, and always on the same: /dev/sdc5.

I could do backups, but I can't understand why this filesystem is problematic, because I don't use it often, at least these times. I always have errors about the AucTeX files. Well, auctex is simply an emacs extension for LaTeX, and I can't understand why some specific files always cause troubles. I don't always get the same errors. This time, it was mainly *things like error filesystem Inode has EXTENTS_FL flag set, but not too many.* ** *1) Why are they happening? My disk is not old.

Blank blue screen after logging into an account for the first time with gdm choosing window manager
On one of my computers, running Debian Squeeze, I have two user accounts. One has been used exclusively for running Nautilus and GNOME applications. The other has been used exclusively over SSH. At start-up, gdm automatically logs into the graphical account, but today I decided that I wanted to use Nautilus with the other account as well. After gdm automatically logged me into the graphical account, I then logged out and entered my username and password for the other account. Once the gdm screen cleared, I immediately saw a full-screen wizard-like GUI that was asking me to choose a window manager. There were two options: metacity and Twm with metacity selected by default. I unchecked Ask every time and clicked OK. That screen disappeared, but all that I saw was a blank blue screen and the mouse cursor. I could move the mouse and the cursor would move, but nothing else loaded. In particular, Nautilus and the GNOME panels did not load. I had to forcefully shut down the computer just to get out. The content of the account's .xsession-errors file is: /etc/gdm/Xsession: Beginning session setup... Added '/usr/bin/metacity' to list of window managers, as it is the configured default.

Re: partitioning HD for server
Louis Hinman wrote: To learn Liunx networking, I am going to set up a web server Well, a web server is just a component and it does To this end, I am installing Debian 5.0 on a Dell Dimension 4100 with a 250 MB HD. 250 Megabyte? Or 250 Gigabyte? A small installation will easily fit within 200MB. But that is getting harder for the novice to do as code bloat is settling into everything and the default is to install more than you need. On my desktop, I have partitioned my HD as follows: /root /swap /home /usr/local /opt What would be an appropriate partition scheme for my web server? For the novice putting everything into one partition is often easiest. It is simple. You don't have to plan ahead very much for it. But when you run out of disk space you run out of it everywhere. For example if the filesystem is completely full then /var/log/syslog won't be able to log any problems and /var/spool/postfix (or exim or whatever) won't be able to send you email notifying you of problems. Therefore many people myself included like to separate the volumes to isolate functionality. This can keep email flowing even when other parts of the system are blocked by a full disk. Also disks are getting very large these days. Putting 2T into one filesystem works fine. But when or if a problem occurs then it occurs across a 2T filesystem and can be very painful to work with while trying to correct problems. Almost anything dealing with large filesystems take a long time. Therefore sizing to a better fit size with several smaller filesystems can optimize disaster recovery. I use LVM to enable me to fit sizes better and to grow (or shrink) as needed. Since I use LVM, LVM with RAID, LVM with encrypted partitions, and other configurations I always set up /boot on its own ext2 partition. I am currently consuming between 30M and 90M on various machines in /boot so anything 100M or larger would be fine. That is so small that there isn't any real gain by using ext3 or ext4 and with the journal it is worse. Using ext2 keeps it simple for the bootloader and is well supported. I always set /var up on a separate partition. This enables logs to be recorded and email to be transfered even if other parts of the filesystem become full. The size needed will vary with your particular use of it. Since I use LVM I can expand and contract it after installation and so am not locked to the installation size. I usually install a 3G /var partition. If it is just myself using the machine than /boot, /var and / might be plenty enough. But if there are multiple users then I always set up /home and potentially individual user partitions. Some users are disk hogs. The steady state of filesystems is full. I keep disk hog users on their own partition and then they don't negatively impact everyone else on the system. I find using LVM and partitions easier than user quotas. With LVM it is easy to create and size custom partitions. (Side Note: I like xfs but you can't downsize a partition. So I have been using ext3 for the most part which supports both upsizing and downsizing on the fly.) If you are going to use /usr/local/* or /opt/* for your own purposes then by all means feel free to set up partitions for them. I don't usually need those on my systems. On Debian /opt isn't normally used. It is completely a local option to use it. This is the opposite of some commercial Unix systems. For me every server almost always has one or more chroots set up on them. Each chroot is a little system and so could have their own individual partitions. But I find that using one partition for /srv and setting up /srv/chroot/* is usually sufficient for my needs. Then if the /srv/chroot/sid/var/ fills up it again doesn't cause global problems on the rest of the system. Summary: Here is my recommendation. /boot 200M as ext2 /var3G / Size As Needed /...others...Set Up As Needed Keep some free blocks reserved in LVM ready to deploy when needed. Set up additional partitions as you need them. Stay flexible. There is no one true correct answer and many admins will have their own individualized recipes. As long as I am here I should mention that Linux memory overcommit should also be factored into setting up a server for reliability and sizing swap and virtual memory needs follow.

There are two basic ways of creating an out-of-kernel-source-tree module from source: (1) install the kernel headers and compile the out-of-kernel-source-tree module from source using the kernel headers, and (2) if you have the whole kernel source tree installed, compile using the kernel source. What you're doing is creating a kernel header package from the kernel source and then using method (1), when you should be using method (2). I spent the better part of the day today playing around with this. Perhaps the results of my experiment will prove instructive in some way. I have a computer, i386 architecture, which runs Debian Squeeze. It has an Nvidia video card with a RIVA TNT2 chipset. It currently runs a stock Debian kernel (linux-image-2.6.32-5-686, version 2.6.32-18) and it uses the nv driver for X (xserver-xorg-video-nv, version 1:2.1.17-3). I can't use the nouveau driver, unfortunately, because interlaced video modes do not work with the nouveau driver and my CRT monitor requires interlaced video modes to operate at its maximum resolution due to its low maximum pixel clock rate.) I decided to build a custom kernel and at the same time attempt to activate the proprietary nvidia driver. I really didn't need or want to do either one, but for the sake of making my kernel-building web page more useful, I decided to do this exercise. Here is what I did. The first step was to figure out which kernel source packages I needed. For the kernel source code, that was easy: linux-source-2.6.32. But for the nvidia kernel module source package, that took a little research. It turns out that for a video card with the RIVA TNT2 chipset, the correct answer is nvidia-kernel-legacy-71xx-source. I looked at the bug reports for the corresponding Debian source package, nvidia-graphics-drivers-legacy-71xx, and was disheartened. Bug number 543248 looked like it was going to be a show stopper. But for the sake of the academic exercise, I pressed on. The first problem is that nvidia-kernel-legacy-71xx-source exists only in Sid. And I run Squeeze. So I had to update some apt files. First, I edited /etc/apt/sources.list. -- $ cd /etc/apt $ su # cat sources.list deb ftp://ftp.uwsg.indiana.edu/linux/debian squeeze main non-free contrib deb-src ftp://ftp.uwsg.indiana.edu/linux/debian squeeze main non-free contrib deb http://security.debian.org/ squeeze/updates main non-free contrib deb-src http://security.debian.org/ squeeze/updates main non-free contrib # vi sources.list [editing commands not shown] # cat sources.list deb ftp://ftp.uwsg.indiana.edu/linux/debian squeeze main non-free contrib deb-src ftp://ftp.uwsg.indiana.edu/linux/debian squeeze main non-free contrib deb http://security.debian.org/ squeeze/updates main non-free contrib deb-src http://security.debian.org/ squeeze/updates main non-free contrib deb ftp://ftp.uwsg.indiana.edu/linux/debian sid main non-free contrib deb-src ftp://ftp.uwsg.indiana.edu/linux/debian sid main non-free contrib # -- As you can see, I added two lines to the end to define the sid release. But I only wanted packages from sid that I explicitly ask for. I didn't want a massive update. So I created a couple of extra files. I will simply show you their contents. -- # cat apt.conf APT::Default-Release squeeze; # cat preferences Package: * Pin: release a=sid Pin-Priority: 1 # -- Note: I've heard that synaptic does not respect these files, but I have no independent verification of that. aptitude and apt-get do honor it, however. Anyway, moving on ... -- # aptitude update [since sources.list, et al, were changed] # aptitude install linux-source-2.6.32 # aptitude -t sid -R install nvidia-kernel-legacy-71xx-source # aptitude install kernel-package fakeroot libncurses5-dev # exit $ cd /usr/src $ tar -xjf linux-source-2.6.32.tar.bz2 $ rm linux-source-2.6.32.tar.bz2 $ tar -xzf nvidia-kernel-legacy-71xx-source.tar.gz $ rm nvidia-kernel-legacy-71xx-source.tar.gz -- Note: the rm commands both give the following warning message: rm: remove write-protected regular file file name?

Haines Brown I use gparted and it works for me, I do as I describe in the post you are replying to. Jimmy, sorry to follow your kind answer with a question about it. This gnome application, gparted, is only described as a partition manipulator (I don't use any desktop environment, and so I'm not familiar with it). Does this manipulation include setting a boot flag? If so, then does your answer imply that this flag does indeed have to be set, despite an absense of its mention in some of the directions for making a bootable USB key? Yes, with a right click on the partition you can set a boot flag using gparted, a great tool to have on hand, many ways to get GParted as a live cd or as an iso, http://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=gparted or get PartedMagic with a lot more tools including TestDisk, Web Browser, File Manager http://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=partedmagic As for the rest of your question, I'm just telling you what works for me, if I want to boot a drive, Hard Drive or Flash Drive, I put a boot flag on it. -- Jimmy Johnson Ubuntu Lucid and Trinity KDE 3.5.11 - EXT4 at sda10 Registered Linux User #380263 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
