Different behaviour handling NFS mounts after login
I've recently replaced Linux MINT on 3 machines with Debian Wheezy and GNOME3.4. All of my "shares" are mounted with NFS. For this purpose I use the following options (on all installations): rw,_netdev,hard,intr,user,nosuid,exec,async,auto Two of the machines opens Nautilus after each login. Neither the other installation of Debian nor a remaining MINT installations shows this behaviour. What's the problem here? Should I change something in the mount options? Or is this a setting within GNOME? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

Ouch. This means that user cannot execute dpkg itself.

And this proves it. This is definitely wrong, anyone should be able to
execute dpkg.
BTW, to check 'stock' file permissions that should be set on a package
install, one can use dpkg-deb. In this case:

My experience is similar -- about a year ago, EFI-laptop+Windows8+Ubuntu: Switching from grub does not work. However switching from the UEFI-Bios does.

You as the user have the final choice. You have to decide if the installer's suggestion fits your needs and constraints.

Yes, but LVs usually contain filesystems, and as you have seen, online shrinking of a mounted filesystem is often difficult or impossible. So it is better to avoid this kind of situation. If you can grow the PV (e.g. by adding a new disk) when you need to grow a LV, then it is fine to allocate all the space of the initial PV. However if you cannot grow the PV, then it is better to leave some of the PV space initially unallocated and to grow LVs from that free space when needed. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Hi all, This is a known problem, but just in case anyone doesn't remember, as installed, the following symlink: /usr/share/dict/words -> /etc/dictionaries-common/words doesn't work, because /etc/dictionaries-common/words doesn't exist upon installation. The following command (run as root) fixes the problem: /usr/sbin/update-default-wordlist Another thing to remember is that the wordlist is no longer ASCII, which can trip you up in searches if you forget that. For instance, I have the following shellscript, called dict: cat /usr/share/dict/words | grep -i "$1" If you look up ^smor.*rd$, you get nothing. But if you look up ^sm.*rd$ you get smörgåsbord. What I'd like to do is get grep to think "å" is a hit for "a" and report it, but report it as "å". I'll let you know when I figure out how to do that, or do some other thing that produces the same result. Prepending LC_ALL= either C, C.UTF-8, en_US.utf8, or POSIX, to the grep command, didn't do it either. If worst comes to worst and I can't find a way to get grep to do this, I'll just put together a substitution table, convert /usr/share/dict/words to words.ascii, line for line, search words.ascii, get the line number, and pull that line out of words.

Attaching an external USB 3.0 self-powered hard drive to NAS
Hi! I'd like to know if nobody ever had issues attaching an external hard drive USB 3.0 self-powered to a backup server like NAS. The same machine had attached an external hard drive USB 3.0, I wonder if something change since this one is self-powered.

Deluge disappears
I'm running debian testing and keep it pretty up-to-date. I did 'aptitude update' then 'aptitude dist-upgrade' both yesterday and the day before. Last night i noticed that deluge was completely gone from my system. I never intentially uninstalled it. So i looked through the dpkg & aptitude logs in /var/log and the string "deluge" does not appear in any of these files. The one unusual thing is that the day before yesterday i deleted everything that had to do with enlightenment (e17), which i had been using and installed openbox & lxpanel. This seems totally bizarre to me. All the deluge packages i had installed (i was running the classic interface) were gone. I reinstalled and so now they're back, but my configuration is not being picked up because it no longer recognizes any torrents as being present. How could several packages disappear from my system (a) without my explicitly doing it (deluge & deluge-gtk would not be automatically removed due to dependencies because they're not dependent on anything) and (b) with no trace of this happening in /var/log/aptitude* & /var/log/dpkg* ??? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

I completed wizard as you said and then lsusb to find my stick, then sudo kvm -m 2048 -smp 1 -drive file=/var/lib/libvirt/images/win.img \ -usb -usbdevice host:058f:6387 -boot menu=on where /var/lib/libvirt/images/win.img is my empty VM created through wizard and 058f:6387 is my stick.

Re: Slow mirror connections

Does anyone have any idea why this happens or where the problem lies. I'm using the standard entries in my sources.conf file. After the "fooferah" that Netflix had with the big network providers, I don't trust them to really give me the service that I am paying for. Gary R. You have a few options: Check your ISP speeds with a few of the websites that offer a speed analysis. Be mindful of peak Internet hours, not necessarily on your end with your FIOS connection but on the servers/services you are connecting to. Check the response times from the servers in your source list and modify them to other servers accordingly. Use the Debian mirror redirector to direct you to a closer mirror. Replace your currently configured Debian mirror in sources.list with the following address: http://http.debian.net/debian e.g. deb http://http.debian.net/debian stable main Best regards, Donald Norwood Actually, I've done all of the above. I am using the debian.net URL's. My ISP speed always measures as advertised. The problem never shows up on measurements but only after the download has been going for a bit. It's like someone says "well this guy has gotton enough so lets slow his access down. The effect seems to be independant of time of day or day of week. I do notice a, maybe, 10% drop in speed during the busier times but nothing like the factor of 20 or more that I am refering to with this problem. My 10 minute downloads all of a sudden become 2 hour downloads. Gary R. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
