Hi,

Strangely, Ctrl+F no longer works for me in Konqueror (nothing happens) in 
Wheezy. Was the "find file" functionality removed from Konqueror or is it a bug?

I also tried it, with a few modifications.  I created the following one

Now, the command:

photoprint filename ##

where filename is the name of the file that I want to print, and ## is 
the percentage of the page to use.


This allows me to print fullpage with:

photoprint filename 100

or any other percentage that I want.  According to the manpage, using 
'200' for the percentage will print across 4 pages (2 x 2).  The "-d 
photo" sends the output to the printer configured through CUPS to print 
at higher resolution and colordepth than I normally use so that I can 
get good image prints when I need them, but not waste time and ink for 
my normal printing.


I have not tried printing at more than 100%, but it works perfectly at 
50% and 25%.

I'm not overly bothered about my home ISP (yet). Response times to a
query are of the order of 26 ms and overall they are reliable and, from
their track record, trustworthy. But the market evolves so . . . 

Away from them the experiences you relate in 1) and 2) are not unknown to
me. Some ISPs even attempt directing all port 53 traffic through their
own servers. Tunnelling to a trusted home machine comes in useful there.

And setting up a basic nameserver is so easy. From memory - install BIND9
and put 'nameserver 127.0.0.1' in /etc/resolv.conf. Actually, resolv.conf
can even be empty! Ok, there may have to some fiddling with dhclient.conf
but it is not hard.

Dnsmasq provides both services in an effort to be a single-utility solution for
small networks. Of course, in networks that small I usually forego both DHCP

A single device is sufficient. The question to answer is: who do you

I do not see a connection between having a DHCP server and operating a

I understand your logic but the log says setiathome was the process that
ultimately triggered the crash. Try disabling it and doing the vt1 trick again
(also look into the liveCD log-inspection suggestion, then you can pastebinit

To help you troubleshoot, could I have the 'permission error' you received?
Probably a modification can be made to allow normal users to use USB.

The primary reasons are 1) reliability separate from your ISP and 2) verified
correct results without NXDOMAIN spam and other such things. For 1, although
your ISPs routers may be up their DNS may go down or become incorrectly
configured, and then you wouldn't be able to browse or use most internet
services. For 2, you cannot trust your ISP to give you accurate results..
NXDOMAIN spam is almost universal now and in many cases ISPs have been caught
blocking websites via DNS resolution which is in a very grey legal area in the
US, but I consider blatantly unethical. Both of these reasons apply whether you
have one box or one hundred. The DNSsec issue also plays into 'you can't trust
ISPs' and applies, but I won't go into it, this is a wall of text as it is.

Please believe point 2 is based in verified and somewhat commonly-known fact,
and not paranoia (:

DNS resolution, which converts names (google.com) into IPs (74.125.91.99).
You need /etc/nsswitch.conf to be configured with the word 'dns' somewhere in
the 'hosts' line (like hosts:^Ifiles dns wins), an /etc/resolv.conf with a
'nameserver' line (the nameserver should be provided by your ISP, check for
what it's set to on your working machines, or try 8.8.8.8 for google DNS). 

You may also need to configure your local network some but I suspect it already
is. Try ping 74.125.91.99 instead of 192.168.10.1 and if that works, DNS is the
only thing missing.

Alan Stern has requested you run a kernel compiled with CONFIG_USB_DEBUG
enabled. To accomplish this, you must compile a kernel and boot into it. The
Debian way of doing this is to install kernel-package and use the make-kpkg
tool. You can copy your existing config from /boot to /usr/src/linux/.config
and then run make menuconfig in that directory and add CONFIG_USB_DEBUG. Then
build the package with make-kpkg, install the .deb with dpkg, and set grub,
lilo or kexec to boot into it.

Mmm, that package seems to contain kernel debug symbols not a specially 
pre-built kernel you can boot for debugging purposes.

Hum... maybe that kernel package is used to send crash reports on non-
live systems (i.e., for forensic diagnostic, to dump crashes to a file 
that you can then send to be analyzed).

But wait... devel is requesting you to recomplie your current kernel with 
"CONFIG_USB_DEBUG" enabled and your kernel is not crashing, so do you 
think debug symbols are necessary in this case :-?

Set up headless Bubba Two for firewall/gateway

2011-07-05 Thread Csanyi Pal
Hi,

I have a Bubba Two  headless PC box and on it a
Debian GNU/Linux Squeeze operating system. I bought this hardware
preinstalled with Debian GNU/Linux Etch.

So far one can't to upgrade it to Debian Squeeze using the 'bubba'
software running on Bubba because the Bubba developers at Excito doesn't
have yet the installable version of Debian Squeeze integrated with the
'bubba' software.

I have upgraded my Bubba Two to Debian Squeeze from Debian Etch following
steps described on the Excito Forum under topic 'Running Debian lenny or
squeeze on Bubba Two' . I did this because I want Debian Squeeze on my Bubba Two
hardware. :)

After this upgrade I have setup networking on Bubba following these steps:


I have problem when try to browse or ping from my LAN behind the Bubba the
Internet, say the Google.
ping 192.168.10.1
is successfull, but
ping www.google.com
isn't:
ping: unknown host www.google.com

What am I missing here to setup properly my LAN behind my Bubba?

Paul

I additionally installed cups-driver-gutenprint 5.2.6.1-1.
Now there's the 'HP DeskJet 600 - CUPS+Gutenprint v5.2.6' driver
available. While the settings don't provide best printing, but standard
and draft only, there anyway is the possibility to print fonts in best
quality :). I still need to test if there will be any setting for this
driver to get a good printing quality for pics too. Since this is the
driver that I tested with Maverick too, I don't think that pics will be
good :(, anyway, system-config-printer for Debian seems to support
different setting options, than the Maverick version seems to support.

Resume

The drivers 'HP Deskjet 600 hpijs' and 'HP Deskjet, hpcups', I guess
provided by the packages 'hpijs' and 'hplip' are garbage, at least when
using system-config-printer.

The driver 'HP DeskJet 600 - CUPS+Gutenprint v5.2.6', provided by the
package 'cups-driver-gutenprint' cause good printing quality for fonts,
but photos and graphics are still bad. I can test some more settings
using this driver, but I don't have much hope that this will improve
something.

Does anybody know other HP driver packages?
Does anybody know other printer setting apps?

If possible, please carbon copy to my email address, since I'm
receiving digest only.

OT: I found a cheap ink that really dries and this additionally very
soon, so that it doesn't smudge, when trying to smudge using a finger.
The quality of the black seems to be ok too, it's not one of those pale
grey tones instead of black, but it might be still a little bit grey,
regarding to dullness by the angle of vision, I didn't compare it with
artist's colours or original HP ink until now and only used cheap paper.
I also didn't test if it's possible to draw with a layout pencil or any
other colour over the printer ink and I can't say if a printing will be
ok after being in daylight for one or two month. Compared to other cheap
ink I'm already enthralled that it doesn't smudge.

dpkg -l | grep hplip

You may want to try with the lastest available version which is 3.11.5. 
If you already have it installed but still getting bad printing results, 
you may consider in openenning a bug report: if it was printing okay in 
older releases then something has changed to worse.

But before doing so remember to run a full clean routine to discard 
clogged ink at print heads :-P

HPLIP should provide the better driver for your printer and it's not me 
who says so but:

Thanks a lot for this explanation, DNS is still a bit like dark magic to 
me :)

My understanding is that a recursive DNS server (especially one with 
DNSSec support) would make sense in networks with more then just a 
couple of devices, especially since you need a separate DHCP server 
anyway. Of course, this doesn't account for the "I want to tinker" 
factor ;)

cups-driver-gutenprint is probably what you want if you're using

Hi Camaleón :)

I've got hpijs and hplip installed, both drivers are bad :(.
Right now I installed ijsgutenprint, since a gutenprint driver is able
to give good printing quality for fonts, but there's no additional new
driver available by system-config-printer. I'm going to install more
gutenprint packages as soon as possible.

Thank you Hans. I tried starting with this, but it didn't work.
Perhaps the needed cups packages were missing, I can try it again as
soon as possible.

Today and the last days before I just had/have minutes to work on the
computer, that makes it more difficult to solve the issue.

If possible, please carbon copy to my email address, since I'm

Yes, it can be:

- Bad written ISO image
- Bad downloaded ISO image
- A mix of the two :-)
- Bad CD media
- Incompatible CD media (some optical readers have problems with special 
media like +RW or -RW)
- ...

I would first start by inserting the CD into another machine to discard

That depends of the level of "defectivity" :-)

If the disc surface is somehow damaged (scratched) maybe you can 
restore and retry. Some CD readers tolerate better this kind of errors 
than others.

If the ISO image has been written not as ISO but as normal data disc, 
no dice, you will have to rewrite the image again.

CUPS is what I use for my HL-2070N (and temporarily the HL-2070W). For
some drivers which I could choose from, it wouldn't even print. So right
now I'm using: Brother HL-2140 Foomatic/hpijs-pcl5e (recommended)

Try different drivers to see which suits best.

A bad printer driver can give indeed very poor results :-(

For that kind of printer I would go for the latest available version of

Erm, that probably sounded rude. What I forgot to add is that I should

I'm afraid Totem dropped xine backend since the latest releases and uses

Are you saying that you can't play "any" commercial DVD with totem under 
Squeeze? If that's your case, I would open a bug report for that.

(corrected) top-posting aside, imagemagick is the best solution. The convert
tool will easily convert from image format to postscript, which is well suited
to printing. If your printer is postscript capable already, you simply lp(r)
filename.ps

That said with the caveat that it has been a long time since I printed anything
so please forgive me if things have changed.

I think you have been confused. Debian Squeeze has *not* made upstart the
default provider of /sbin/init, but has replaced the update-rc.d script with
insserv, which creates symlink ordering based on LSB header info rather than
arbitrary numbers. Otherwise the boot sequence is unchanged.

The message *is* informational, update-rc.d simply runs insserv with the
appropriate arguments for you.

Are you running squeeze or wheezy? 

The fglrx-glx description suggests installing xserver-xorg-video-radeon 
instead, that's why I installed xserver-xorg-video-radeon. It was working fine 
in squeeze.

Thanks

Axel Freyn's suggestion seems good one.  Just keep them never written
over and save data.  

When I checked disk recovery tool, I found testdisk package seems very
popular and supports XFS.
 http://packages.debian.org/sid/testdisk

See my list of recovery Debian tools:
 
http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-reference/ch10.en.html#_data_file_recovery_and_forensic_analysis
 

Also, around that section, I have some basic tricks described :-)

Good luck,

Osamu

Thank you! This did the trick. I do not understand why this was a 
problem and this work around was necessary but it worked. I have 
used VirtualBox in Ubuntu and Fedora and never had a problem 
installing an Ubuntu VM. For the record this work around was also 
needed in order to install an Ubuntu 10.04 VM. I have not tested 
others...

Printer Settings

2011-07-05 Thread Ralf Mardorf
Hi :)

using system-config-printer I tried to get a HP DeskJet 600 working.
It's printing in disgusting quality only. Years ago I used the same
printer. The setup was easy to do and the printing quality was
excellent, I can't remember if it was on Debian, but at least it was
Linux. If I try to print by best quality using Debian today, the
printing is deformed. Standard and draft printings are disgusting, much
more worse than they should be.

On Ubuntu Maverick it's a little bit better. The recommended driver "HP
Deskjet 600 hpijs, 3.10.6 [en]" is unusable, regarding to the bad
printing quality, but there's another driver "HP Deskjet 600 - CUPS
+Gutenprint v5.2.6 [en]" and using this one, the quality for printing
fonts is ok, just pics are still printed in a disgusting quality.

Until now for Debian I only can chose between "HP Deskjet 600 hpijs,
3.11.5 [en]" and "HP Deskjet 600, hpcups 3.11.5 [en]", both drivers
cause a bad printing quality for fonts and pics.

Later today I'll try to get this "+Gutenberg" driver for Debian too, but
as mentioned before even this one isn't ok.

Is there still an old driver usable today? I know that Linux + this
printer can do very much better.

Is there a way to set up everything, so that it will work? By
system-config-printer some settings can't be done and others don't work.

FWIW as soon as I have got the time to do it, I'll test if Suse 11.2
still works with this old printer. I suspect Debian and Ubuntu to drop
too much old hardware, perhaps I've got better luck with Suse.

If possible, please carbon copy to my email address, since I'm
receiving digest only.

Regards,

Ralf

Howto install a debugging kernel in debian?

2011-07-05 Thread Hans-J. Ullrich
Hello folks, 

I got the problem, that I need to install a kernel which creates debugger 
informations in dmesg.

I already built a kernel with activated debug, when I discovered, that debian 
already offers a package with built in debug: linux-image-2.6.39-2-amd64-dbg!

But when I installed this, there was only the no-debugging kernel below /boot.

Is there a non destructive and easy way to start the debugging kernel (which I 
found below /usr/lib/debug/ ), without to change my whole system? I just need 
to start this kernel only once, so I can send the kernel developer the needed 
dmesg file. After that I want to revert back to the running kernel.

You might understand, that I do not want to change (and possible kill) my 
system or working for hours and hours for only creating a simple dmesg 
message.

For those, who are interested in the kernel bug, take a look here:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=22052

Thanks for any help!

Best regards

Hans

What's the order of the block layers?

- LVM on top of dm-crypt on top of raw device, or
- dm-crypt on top of LVM on top of raw device

Either way, you can extend your VG with the new disk, pvmove everything
from the old disk and then vgreduce the VG by the old disk. If you need
more specific help, please post your setup (etc/fstab, /etc/crypttab, ls
-l /dev/mapper/).

That's very interesting!
Thanks for the script.

I actually changed it a little bit so I can use more than one file per 
host by changing the last if condition to a for loop over all the files 
in the host directory.

cloning a lvm crypto volume to a bigger disk

2011-07-05 Thread Colin
Hi all,
So I have this machine with a lvm crypto volume done with a debian
testing install. This is on a disk with 160GB.
But now I would like to clone it to a new disk: 500GB.
What are my options?

I thought about using clonezilla but I don't think it could resize a
lvm crypto volume...

Cheers,
Colin

Re: Debian 6.x NIC Bonding

2011-07-05 Thread Paul Stewart
So you can confirm that you have this working today on a 6.x server?  I 
have been told many times that this is broken in 6.x tree


Also, you have it working IPv4/IPv6 environment or just IPv4?

Thanks,

Paul

I've just seen this on my laptop, which uses ATI/Radeon video hardware.
Like you, only a hard reset worked, as the keyboard seemed to be 'dead'
on exit from a KDE session.

I installed the (non-free) fglrx-glx driver and my problems were
resolved.

a memory stick problem but I've tested the memory in this machine a
dozen times for days at end, what to do next?

Found the culprit. It was in ~/.config/autostart

So how is it handled between .config, and .kde/config ?
