Forgive me; it is way past my bedtime, and I did not catch the "...rc".
But when I changed the name of .enscript.cfg to .enscript.rc and tried to
print a simple text file "howto.enscript", I get the error:

Re: a command with a long list of options
CONFIGURATION FILES
Enscript reads configuration information from the following sources (in
this order): command line options,
environment variable ENSCRIPT, user's personal configuration file
($HOME/.enscriptrc), site configuration file
(/etc/enscriptsite.cfg) and system's global configuration file
(/etc/enscript.cfg).
One solution:
> ENSCRIPT= —verbose —media=letter -2 —landscape —borders ….
The personal configuration resides in ~/.enscriptrc and NOT in ~/.enscript.cfg.
esncript.cfg is the global config and resides in /etc/enscript.cfg

The job is somewhat too big for a bash alias.
But there is the old concept of a shell script.
Use your favorite text editor to open a file in your
$HOME directory. E.g.:
vi ~/my_enscript
Write as first line the address of the program that shall
interpret your script. Prepend it by "#!" :
#!/bin/bash
Then write your command line, replacing the filename by "$1"
enscript --verbose --media=letter -2 --landscape --borders \
--header='$n|A.D. $D{%Y.%m.%d}|$* gmt | Page $% of $=' \
"$1"
(I split the long line by backslashes for better readbility.)
Store the file and leave the editor.
Back in the shell give the file x-permission for its owner:
chmod o+x ~/my_enscript
To run your script with file "filename", execute in the shell
~/my_enscript filename
"$1" in the script will get replaced by the first argument of your
command line. I.e by "filename".
Have a look at your shell variable $PATH. It tells a list of
directories where scripts and programs are looked up if their
name contains no "/".
echo $PATH
might put out something like
/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/games:/usr/games:/home/thomas/bin
So if i would put "my_script" into /home/thomas/bin then it would
be found by bash without the leading "~/":
my_enscript filename
Have a nice day :)

I cut and pasted the above definition into ~/.bashrc and then restarted
the machine to ensure that .bashrc was being read. But the only response
I get is:
$ enscript howto.enscript

a command with a long list of options
Now that I have switched from a2ps to enscript, I need to execute the
following command on various files:
enscript --verbose --media=letter -2 --landscape --borders
--header='$n|A.D. $D{%Y.%m.%d}|$* gmt | Page $% of $=' filename
I tried putting these parameters in the enscript configuration file (which
is ~/.enscript.cfg), but they were ignored. From the enscript man page,
it appears that these options cannot be set in a configuration file.
So, can I define in bash an alias or something so that a command such as
"+enscript filename" can invoke enscript with these options on filename?
Or can perl provide a solution?
I looked at two or three bash tutorials, but I did not quickly spot a
solution.

If UEFI is implemented in a way that is not too broken, it should be as easy as it was with the old style of BIOS. With Dell systems you would normally start hitting the 'F12' key when you see the Dell Logo. Maybe sooner if the display is a little slow to light up. Should get you the boot menu that has the option to go to the UEFI setup. In Windows hold down the Windows key and hit 'R' to bring up the run box, then type 'diskmgmt.msc' and hit 'Enter' to bring of the disk management, from there you should be able to shrink the Windows partition. If you go to the Dell web site, go to support, and type in the service tag number that's on your machine, Dell may have some Linux related support information for your model.

Yes, I know. HAL has been deprecated in Debian in favor of udev for about 3 or 4 years. But other distros like Ubuntu and Mint still use it. As far as I can tell Hulu running on Linux NEEDS some hal libraries to play the videos now. I don't know which one or ones. Prior to mid-July, everything worked fine on my system without any hal stuff. Unfortunately, there is no real alternative other than running Windows in a VM to stream Hulu content. FWIW, I installed PCLinusOS 32-bit which still uses hal (LXDE desktop) in a VM, and Hulu works just fine in Firefox. So there's hope yet. Tried to test Chrome,but the install had problems. And PCLOS didn't run well. Slow and jerky. However, if hal doesn't conflict with anything on my system -- the hal daemon doesn't need to be running, only the libraries are needed by Hulu -- then I may just install it and see what happens. Thanks for your reply. B

Re: Running HAL and udev Simultanteouly
I installed hal from debian in a vm with debian testing amd64. Chrome beta no go with some error code. Won't even start hald. Iceweasel plays the splash screen and looks like it wants to play the program but the screen stays blank. Hald is running. I can move the mouse along the timeline and see previews but no more. I have found that the 3 main networks will play in chrome beta without hal in my desktop amd64 testing system. *...Bob* On 09/15/2015 05:43 PM, Bartek wrote: > Still searching for a fix to stream TV via Hulu.

Running HAL and udev Simultanteouly
Still searching for a fix to stream TV via Hulu. Worked fine with Chrome/pepperflash and Iceweasal/flash until about mid-July, around the release time of Windows 10. Hulu indicates that with Linux, HAL is needed. My system is custom: 64-bit Wheezy, no desktop, just Openbox WM and LXPanel, and udev. Wondering if installing HAL as Hulu suggested would cause problems? I have doubts that it will work anyway. Any advice or fixes appreciated. Thanks. B

How to install grub in it? Get into the system setup: switch off Secure Boot and reboot. Use Windows tools to shrink the Windows disk to produce free space at the end of the disk. Use a Debian CD / a Debian .iso file on a USB stick: allow the machine to boot from the CD / USB. Install Debian in the normal way on the free space. That means that Debian will install grub-efi and will then recognise that there is Windows on the first partition. I have a system here which has this, more or less. All the very best, AndyC

I did an apt-get dist-upgrade. It removed gimp, aptitude and kde-full, among others. Immediately after that, I could reinstall gimp. A couple of days later, I could reinstall aptitude, and some week later I could reinstall kde-full. Now all dependency problems have gone and everything looks fine, even with deb-multimedia in sources.list. [stretch]

I don't use the DE, but I do use k3b and a few other KDE applications. Libreoffice is currently in trouble, as it has been twice in the last month or so. gnupg2 and gnupg-agent have bugs, as does openssl. openssl has had at least one bug for a couple of months. > > Tracking https://release.debian.org/transitions/ helps to upgrade > when you have problems with upgrade. > > Since gcc transition I had to hold some packages to make apt happy to > upgrade.

It used to be the case that aptitude would spend literally hours trying to calculate a large upgrade, but it now runs for a while and asks if I want to keep trying. It still can't find a solution after three or four tries. apt-get dist-upgrade comes up with a solution, but wants to remove forty or fifty packages, including gimp, which I use regularly. It may be possible to install it again afterwards, apt-get is fairly brutal and simple-minded, but then again it may not. The problem is the set of packages and my architecture, which is amd64. I have two 32-bit installations which I can upgrade without problems, so presumably openssl is OK on 32-bit. The 32-bit installations are smaller, one on a netbook and one on a USB hard drive. It is my workstation which is 64-bit, with over four thousand packages installed, which probably isn't helping. Now and then I have a poke around with Synaptic, and I found four or five packages which could be individually upgraded tonight, with removed libraries being replaced by new ones. For everything else, when I select a package for upgrade, there is a sea of red where other packages have to be removed... -- Joe

System hangs on boot after upgrade to jessie
] Hi I have a Qosmio G25 lap top that I haven't used for a while. I now need it and decided to upgrade to the latest stable release (jessie). I updated wheezy to its latest version before upgrading to jessie. I then changed the sources.list to stable and proceeded with the upgrade. Everything seemed to work fine. But, on reboot the system got to "Waiting for /dev/to be fully populated ..." and stalled. After 60 seconds it started printing out [ 70.866964] BUG: soft lockup - CPU#0 stuck for 61s! [swapper:0] messages. The system is a dual boot but on separate 60GB hard drives. Windows XP is on the first drive and Debian Linux on the second. A grub loader is used. I have tried to load the latest Debian netinstall disk. The disk won't start. The windows side still works fine. Knoppix loads OK but since I only have one disk drive that is no help. I have tried to create a usb sd copy but have not been able to create a usable copy. I read somewhere that loading the .iso copy to the sd would work. I haven't found this to be the case. I tried to transfer a copy from the net install disk to the sd but not all of the files will copy across. I noticed that the netinstall disk has only .exe and .ini files for starup.?? (Windoze?) Im stuck. Any help will be sincerely appreciated. Gary R.

'drupal7.semaphore' doesn't exist: SELECT expire, value FROM {semaphore}
WHERE name = :name; Array ( [:name] => variable_init ) in
lock_may_be_available() (line 167 of
/usr/share/drupal7/includes/lock.inc).PDOException: SQLSTATE[42S02]:
Base table or view not found: 1146 Table 'drupal7.semaphore' doesn't

[:name] => variable_init ) in lock_may_be_available() (line 167 of
/usr/share/drupal7/includes/lock.inc).
How do I fix it?
Second question. If I am installing a single application under Drupal7
(CiviCRM is the package), what directory/subdirectory should I unzip
CiviCRM into to start? CiviCRM makes its own directory structure and
includes a web-based installer if you unzip it to a specific location.
Third question. What is the brower URL for that location? In other
words, after unpack CiviCRM, I need to browse to that web-based
installer. What would that URL start with?
TIA for any assistance you can provide.

Debian sid transition to KDE 5?
Dear all,
I am running Debian sid since 2006. When I type in
aptitude dist-upgrade I have been getting the below messages. To fix it,
please, is it just question of time (something related to KDE 5
transitional packages)?
Best wishes,
Andrea

Re: Currency problem
Sorted, thanks for the assistance. It turned out that the "Chrome currency converter" was installed. I don't know how as I don't remember installing it. I disabled and deleted it and now I'm back to some form of sanity! I've been using Linux since the mid 1990s but this is my first successful attempt at Debian. Thanks again.

Yes, that sucks. WindRiver sucks too. Here's my take, worth as much as free advice is. - - GRSecurity is free to distribute its stuff as it likes, and to take $200 for it. - - Since this stuff is a set of patches to the Linux kernel, it is derived work and is under the same GPLV2. This is, I think uncontroversial. No need to be a "Detractor" or what. - - This means that (a) GRSecurity has to make available their source code *to those they distribute the program to* (b) the receiving party receives also the license to re-distribute, modify, study... the program as it sees fit *provided* they stick to the provisions of the GPL (i.e. make available the source, give on the rights they received). So if you want to do a service to humankind, stop whining, cough up the $200 and redistribute GRSecurity. All happy. You could try to recoup some of your costs by asking for some contributions.

GRSecurity Closes Stable Patch to Linux Kernel. How do you feel about this?
Go to grsecurity.org, look on the side panel where it lists the versions, you see: Stable (Restricted): 3.1-3.2.71 Last updated: 09/13/15 Stable (Restricted): 3.1-3.14.52 Last updated: 09/13/15 Test (Free): 3.1-4.1.7 Last updated: 09/13/15 What does this mean? It means the stable source patches, which are wholely derivative works of the linux kernel, have been brought closed. This is how to "un-GPL" a work, 101. That is what has happened, effectivly: they got around your intent that derivative works be open, like the linux kernel, except this time they are not even distributing source (like RedHat does) but not the binaries, the source itself is restricted. What do these stable patches consist of? It is a diff that is created by linux kernel + grsecurity changes to linux kernel + backports of security patches to the linux kernel. 200 dollars a month if you want it. They're using your security patches, and have closed the source of the finished "product" to all the world. GRSecurity Linux Kernel patch ends public accessability of stable patches. (The full rundown) Grsecurity is a 4MB patch of the linux kernel. For 14 years now Brad Spengler and "PaxTeam" have released to the public a patch to the kernel that prevents buffer overflows, adds address space protection, adds Access Control List functions, prevents various other security related errors (the programs are terminated rather than allowed to write to protected memory or execute other flaws), aswell as various improvements shell servers might find useful such as allowing a user to only see his own processes (unless he is in a special group), and tracking the ipaddress associated with a particular process. Now Brad Spengler has announced that there will be no more public distribution of the stable GRSecurity patch of the linux kernel. Some supporters of GRSecurity have claimed that GRSecurity is not even a derivative work of the linux kernel and that Spengler may do whatever he wishes, including closing to code to all except those who pay him 200 dollars per month. Detractors contend that GRSecurity is a derivative work, and have noted that it is not likely that the thousands of linux code contributors intended that derivative works be closed in this manner. Detractors have also noted the differences between copyright grants and alienations based on property law and those based on contract law, and that the linux kernel is likely "licensed" under contract law and not "licensed" under property law (to use the term loosely), and that this has implications regarding the relevancy of the intentions of the parties. Detractors have also noted that the agreement is not likely to be deemed fully integrated. Supporters of GRSecurity have then claimed that the linux kernel's license (GPLv2) is just a "bare license". Detractors then noted that licenses (creatures of property law) can be rescinded by the licensor at-will (barring estoppel), and in that case any contributor to the Linux Kernel code could rescind Brad Spengler's permission to create derivative works of their code at will, and that the GRSecurity Supporters should hope that Linux (and the GPL) is "licensed" under a contract and not a bare license. The whole situation stems from WindRiver, a subsidiary on Intel(R), mentioning that they use GRSecurity in their product. Brad Spengler wished for WindRiver to pay him a 200 dollars per month fee. Spengler then threatened to sue Intel under copyright law and trademark law. He, at that time, claimed that Intel was "violating the GPL" (a claim that has now been rescinded) and his trademark on the word "GRSecurity" (a claim which still stands but is currently not being pursued in court). Intel threatened to ask for legal cost reimbursement if Spengler brought this to court (Judges often reward this for spurious baseless claims to discourage excessive litigation). It has been noted that Brad Spengler's copyright claim is more-or-less non-existent, and his trademark claim is very weak and near non-existent (thus the threat for reimbursement of fees). In trademark law one is barred from, within a field of endeavor, conflating another persons trademark with ones own product one created. Here WindRiver (a subsidiary of Intel(R)) simply noted that it used the grsecurity patch in it's product: It did not create a brand new piece of code and call that "GRSecurity": It simply used what Spengler provided. In retaliation, Spengler has announced he is closing the stable grsecurity patch to all but those who pay him 200 dollars per month.
