So what about the loopback module and the guide from the link?

pactl list short sinks and use the value for the loopback.

If you have trouble start the PA server with -vvv for example as described
in https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_debug_PulseAudio_problems

Then kill the existing server, with the command pulseaudio -k. Now launch
pulseaudio -v from a console, and reproduce your problem. Provide the
whole set of messages from the console where you ran pulseaudio. 


Also have a look here https://endless.ersoft.org/pulseaudio-loopback/

If your LAMP webroot is /var/www/html do, one way is to do the following.

$ ln -s /usr/share/adminer/adminer /var/www/html

and you should find adminer at http://server.example.com/adminer

Thank you Sven for pointing this out!  You're right, I've been
confused by personal experience with other chips.  Installation
of "firmware-amd-graphics" should be sufficient in that case.
I should probably refrain to post past a certain hour in my TZ.

Anyway, Kind Regards,  :)

How to use adminer?

I installed adminer in debian 10 by sudo apt install adminer.
Now I am unsure how to use it on web browser. Note I installed LAMP and

Re: After buster upgrade gdm login not working

2019-09-04 Thread Kenneth C. Schalk

By any chance, is your user account defined in a network-based
authentication database, like NIS or LDAP?


Yes, exactly so, it's defined by NIS.  The machine where gdm login is
failing is an NIS client bound to a different Debian machine (still on
Debian stretch) which acts as the NIS server.  On a related note, my
home directory is served by NFS from the same server to this client.
(I've been managing a home cluster of Linux and some other UNIXes like
this for decades.)

I assumed everything was working correctly with this since I can log
in to the client host via ssh and at the console.

https://wiki.debian.org/NewInBuster

 * The security settings for some components of systemd have been
   tightened. People using nis with systemd may encounter bug
   878625 which breaks a variety of things related to login
   sessions. Workarounds include installing the nscd package, or
   reconfiguring systemd-logind.service to allow it to use the network.

 * If you use the nis client (ypbind), you must make sure that the
   YPBINDARGS= option in /etc/default/nis does not include -no-dbus. The
   upgrade will not modify this file, and if the -no-dbus option remains
   present, ypbind will fail to start, and you may not be able to
   login. See also: bugs 906436, 834298.

 * If you have user accounts in NIS, you should also double-check the
   /etc/nsswitch.conf file, and make sure the passwd, group and shadow
   lines use compat rather than files. Upgrades from systems installed
   as stretch should be OK, but systems originally installed as previous
   releases may be using deprecated configurations.

I'm hearing bad things about nscd, but I have very little experience
with it myself, and it's what was recommended in one of the bug reports
when I was scrambling to find answers.

blkid has an answer for that. If it says that your /, /usr and /var are
ext3 - leave them as that.

Exactly, blkid said just that. Thank you for help!

I'll look for potential system misbehaviour that might be linked with 
the previous issue, and will report here.

openat and graphical applications

2019-09-04 Thread Christoph Pleger

Hello,

I am just playing around with openat a little (to open a new virtual 
terminal and execute a command in it) and found the following problem:


Though the command 'openvt -s -w -- dbus-run-session 
startplasmacompositor' starts KDE Plasma with Wayland, not the new 
terminal is used for the KDE session, but tty1, where I am currently 
logged in on the textual console and typed in the command.


On the other hand, 'openvt -s -w -- /bin/bash" opens, as desired, a new 
terminal and starts the shell there. But when I enter the command 
'dbus-run-session startplasmacompositor' in that shell, a switch back to 
tty1 takes place and the KDE session again starts there.


Does anybody know the reason why not the correct TTY is used for KDE?

Viele Grüße
  Christoph

Yeah, or purports to be one. And... what is this (integer?) array which
is (partially) zeroed out?

Looks like the random output of someone hijacking Exercise 2 to make
Exercise 5 (fork & exec) or something.

OP is a Canadian (timezone and language give it away) who does not
consider shell scripts "true", so they write C programs instead :)
