I have been running 64-bit amd64 as my primary desktop since the original Sarge pre-Etch timeframe. For all free software components it is very well supported and reliable. That is good for me. But full disclosure means mentioning that some closed source proprietary applications will need some special handholding. For the ones I have given into running I do so in a 32-bit chroot environment. But this is a good reason to push harder on free software solutions such that everything can just work.

Wireless internet for squeeze desktop
Hi, everyone -- In the near future I need to change the network setup for my desktop squeeze workstation so that it uses a wireless internet connection (it's using the ethernet spigot right now). Can anyone suggest a wireless card or wireless USB adaptor which has good compatibility / support in squeeze? Thanks in advance, -PT

Using "--uuid" overrides "--homehost" for metadata v0.90 since for that version the hostname is used to create part of the uuid. "" means "use the hostname of the current box".

But it works. I never use the "--name" option when creating an md device but AFAIK it just allows you to refer to an md device with a name of your choice. I'm glad that it works but the "HOMEHOST " is used at the creation of the md device so there must be another mechanism at work to allow for the assembly of "/" in spite of the change of hostname. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

The pdnsd package defaults to use of an automatic configuration file (containing reasonable defaults) from /usr/share/pdnsd, overriding /etc/pdnsd.conf. Both pdnsd-recurse.conf and pdnsd-resolvconf.conf define a server_ip value of 127.0.0.1.

Now I wish there was a simpler way/command to do this. Mirroring a repository is one matter, and is fairly complicated. But if your need is simply to keep a set of CD/DVD images up to date, you really should be using jigdo (that is, jigdo-lite). Jigdo minimizes the load on the servers, and guarantees an accurate image. You can write a set of bash scripts to automate the jigdo process, and you even could run them via cron. Note that several instances of jigdo may run in parallel. RLH -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

By reviweing the log you uploaded, it seems that both screens are getting
the same resolution (1280x800):
***
(II) RADEON(0): Output VGA-0 using initial mode 1280x800
(II) RADEON(0): Output LVDS using initial mode 1280x800
***
I suppose you want to change the VGA-0 one, but what size do you want to
get, 1600x900? The easiest way to select another resolution is by using
the GNOME applet tool ("start/system/preferences/display resolution").

Humm... nope, sorry ;-(
As long as there is no "xorg.file" to be read by xorg I dunno how (and
from where) can still be getting the old settings.

By default on Debian all runlevels are configured the same. There isn't anything magical about runlevel 2 or 3 or 4 or 5. By default they are all the same. You can as a local admin configure them to be different but unless you have done so then booting runlevel 3 won't be any different than booting the default runlevel 2. X will start the same. The traditional solution would be to boot single user mode with S or 'single' and make corrections from there. Alternatively you can disable gdm/kdm/xdm temporarily and then reboot to the full system which will then be a text console. Bob signature.asc Description: Digital signature

Hint: APT'S 'build-dep' makes this easy. Since this is already in Squeeze then if you were running squeeze you could install all of the build dependencies for that version by using apt. $ sudo apt-get build-dep hitori That will automatically install any build dependencies onto your system that it doesn't otherwise have installed. Then you can build from source normally. And additionally you can rebuild the version from squeeze easily too. $ apt-get source hitori $ cd hitori-0.2.3 $ debuild -uc -us # From the devscripts package. You might also want to build your own source too but seeing how the Debian maintainer builds it is often useful. Then you can learn from it and apply to your own custom build.

Regardless I have never changed it. My hostname is not "". My mdadm.conf does not contain the actual hostname. And use of "" is documented to automatically use the value from gethostname(2). In any case I have renamed systems many times and never had it fail because of changing the hostname nor have I ever seen the /dev/mdX_Y naming referred to in the documentation on any system that I have renamed. I wasn't even aware of the possibility until this discussion thread. When querying mdadm for details it is not reporting any arrays tagged with a homehost. I am using mdadm versions v2.6.7.2 in Lenny and v3.1.4 in Squeeze. I would guess that internally uuid naming has been doing the actual task of associating arrays. The documentation says: A new array will normally get a randomly assigned 128bit UUID which is very likely to be unique. ... Also, using --uuid= when creating a v0.90 array will silently override any --homehost= setting. Bob signature.asc Description: Digital signature

I am not more skilled, but I have been seeing these for months (at least). Many of them have been addressed to debian-russian and yet they still show up in debian-user, so it looks like it might be pretty well configured to get by the filters. I am suprised that it has not been flagged as spam by debian yet, since they always have the same structure.

Hi,
shirish शिरीष wrote:
I followed the discussion on the web. So from what I learnt it should
be something like this :-
$ rsync -avzP ftp.de.debian.org::debian-cd/ /sda8/
I tried it too, with the $SITE variable set, this is my take:
rsync -avzP --delete ${SITE}::debian-cd/ ./debian-cd-mirror
I found that some mirrors didn't work as expected and others worked to a
point, then I found one that kept on working and cleaned up the mess
left behind by an old out of sync mirror (with the --delete option).
Ok I cancelled it, as it was downloading the 5.0.7 how do I tell it to
download 6.0 squeeze beta2 ?
I don't have an answer, it depends what is on the mirror I support, then
you _might_ be able to path it to the right area.
Due to connection limitations at my end the download will not happen
in one go but over few days. So how do I set it up so that each time I
just run some command and it takes from where it left.
rsync will sort it out itself, you can stop it anytime and start it
again and it'll work through the list again, provided it's not
completely different, you won't be downloading the same files again.
$wget -c something.something
Yep, it doesn't work with all servers though, but the -c for continue is
quite handy at times.
Further on this topic, the rsync I am doing has all kinds of files, such as:
.tar.gz
.iso
.img
.squashfs
I hope that one of the files that will download will tell me "how" all
this is to be used somehow ;-)
I might do a dry run, just to get a full listing as well. There are
sure to be many files that I'm downloading that will have no real use
for me as most of the time I just use a netinst iso. And of course, the
whole deal starts again when there is a newer release, a minor or a

In wget its simple, $wget something.something. Do a CTRL+C in case you want to quit or connection goes out or anything. then do $wget -c something.something It will check how much it has downloaded and get the rest.

gtkam cannot initialize Canon camera in Squeeze Testing
gtkam has stopped working after a dist upgrade in Squeeze (Testing). It
still works on my laptop. Both are running amd64 packages. The computer
with the problem is running software raid on two hard drives.
The camera used to work and is still detected correctly as "Canon
Digital IXUS 80 IS", but gtkam now halts with the error message "Could
not initialize camera." Running as root doesn't help. I installed
digikam which also detected the camera ("Canon Digital IXUS 80 IS - PTP
mode, autodetected") but failed to connect ("Failed to connect to the
camera. Please make sure it is connected properly and turned on. Would
you like to try again?")
I'm pretty sure that it is nothing to do with gtkam. Both computers are
running gtkam version 0.1.17-1. The version of libgphoto2-2 on the
working laptop is 2.4.6-1+b1, and the version on the computer not
working is 2.4.6-3.
I suspect it is something to do with libgphoto2-2 or USB mounting - udev
or HAL, perhaps? I'm not sure how to test these ideas.
This blog post [1] suggests mounting usbfs to /proc/bus/usb, but this is
deprecated.
The problem may have started after an upgrade in which there was an
irreversible step - I think it was the introduction of UUID for disc
drives. I don't know whether this could be significant.
dmesg shows this

I take snapshots (compressed images) of the partitions so I can recover a borked system easily. I use BootitNG (learnt this when I was only using Windows) and it works very well. When running any OS it can't see the main partitions of the other OS's (they appear as unused disc space). I have a common data partition on which I store the images (amongst other stuff). Also disc space is abundant as I don't have much in the way of music or video. My intention to try virtualisation is more to do with security - running a browser in an effective sandbox. If I use a new OS for my project I can still access the rest of its facilities e.g. use the internet. Switching to using my PC for other purposes does require a reboot but I'm not planning to try to do anything else whilst I'm playing with this project. Also I have a slight concern about how effective the virtualisation sandboxing would be against some flaw in memory management due to errors in my coding changes Anyway thanks for your thoughts, appreciate the ideas. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Re: Spontaneously aborting X startup during Linux boot process
You can instruct the OS to boot into a diffrent run level by editing the kernel line before you boot it in grub. It will affect only that boot. I don't have the comand syntex infront of me, but a google for it should produce the info. -Original Message- From: Juan Ignacio Gaudio Date: Thu, 16 Dec 2010 12:06:31 To: Subject: Spontaneously aborting X startup during Linux boot process Hello, I broke my X (again) trying to install a graphics device driver on my Vostro 1000, so now I don't have video and the keyboard does not respond.

Re: Which OS to install?
I would suggest also use virtual machine for test propose as sandbox, and you can always easy recover it from snapshots. Nowadays limitation with hardware is not so critical especially for linux/unix based OS not working with GUI. Read about XEN also.

If you have a backport of libfoo installed, then you need libfoo-dev from the same backport, and synaptic might not consider this since it is not the default version. > although I do > multiboot several OS's and I can install another easily.

Squeeze will be a better choice for development than Lenny, because the packages in Lenny might simply be too old for some applications. For instance, hitori is already available in Squeeze (though only version 0.2.3, not 0.2.5), and it seems to require GTK+ 2.14 or newer for building, while Lenny only has 2.12. So you would need to install the GTK+ version from lenny-backports to be able to compile hitori on Lenny.

Re: Which OS to install?
Ressell Gadd said so I think I should start with a clean system. At present I use Lenny (AMD64) with a couple of backports (maybe they are part of the problem), although I do multiboot several OS's and I can install another easily. So I think I may install another OS just for this project (which will keep my day to day system intact).

So, do I have to do something about the > superblock (how?), or just edit the name in the ARRAY lines, or not touch it > at all? You're welcome. You're right; the hostname is saved in the superblock (as itself in v1.x and as a part of the uuid in v0.9). That value is controlled by the HOMEHOST value in mdadm.conf. The default is "HOMEHOST ", which means "use the hostname of the current system". I've never seen a hostname value on the ARRAY line in mdadm.conf. Are you confusing hostname and array name? You have to assemble an array with "--update=hostname" to update the hostname value held in the superblock. I've never done so for "/" though; it must have to be run from the initramfs prompt. There may be another way but I'd have to look at the mdadm man page to find it but don't have the time right now. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Which OS to install?
I would like to compile a GTK+ application from source (hitori-0.2.5) so that I can play with the source code. I followed the instructions up to ./configure which reports missing packages: No package 'glib-2.0' found No package 'gtk+-2.0' found No package 'gmodule-2.0' found No package 'cairo' found This wasn't a surprise although using Synaptic or aptitude I can't find packages with these exact names but there are various libraries, etc. with related names. Trying to install one of these I get unresolved dependencies and a suggestion to check the repositories. It seems I've got a long path ahead of me so I think I should start with a clean system. At present I use Lenny (AMD64) with a couple of backports (maybe they are part of the problem), although I do multiboot several OS's and I can install another easily.
