Sorry, www.setanta.com Its a live feed, I hope this helps you understand

It would be quite helpful to anyone who wanted to assist, if you would
explain what the heck "setanta sports" is and perhaps give a URL and
some
information about how it works.  For instance, does it require a special
client or run in a browser?

Totem - satanta BB

[admin]

Hi, can anyone tell me how to setup setanta sports playing on debian??

I got it yesterday and used it on m$ and it was fine for an hour and
then i went out. came home and fitted a new grafix card and PC went beep
beep beep.

I thought I did something wrong, not much chance but only option
available. Put a new M$ box on and started setanta again ti finish
viewing and  an hr later box unhappy, restarted and same, beep beep
beep, no startup. 

So, 2 M$-windoze boxes in 2 hours crashed. only new event was
introduction of this live feed from setanta.

Someone is hacking. we know that.

Initial Q is: Can I run a M$ music player sudo on debian.

Please advise, some jerk is ruining my viewing and only reason I run
windoze is for this kind of situation

I am firewalled with zone alarms and running AVG AV, nothing seems to
help, but thats not the issue.

Have we a plugin that copes with this need??

TIA

Dave

I managed to work out that it was the graphics card!!

Funny that it was fixing itself before at the same time the boot did a

[Debian-User] Nice Job Andrew

[Admin]

Thanks to:  Andrew Sackville-West
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

You said:
I'm not sure what you're getting at here, but here is my network setup
using my previously posted xen configuration of Dom0 lan server, DomU
firewall and DomU mail server.

Andrew, this was a very competent and well presented description of your 
network connections.  I have saved it for future reference.

It does seem there are not many Xen enthusiasts on the Debian-User list. My 
involvement on this list was primarily to get a feel for Debian as my Linux   
systems are Slackware for my gateway machine, and SuSE for 3 machines with one 
of those 3 designed as a database machine using RAID much as what you explained 
for your set up but not using Xen and LVM. I moved from RedHat to SuSE and am 
now contemplating moving from SuSE to Debian.  But as I previously said, I 
wanted to implement an Xen system as well as going Debian.

Since you and a few others are interested in Xen I had hoped to inspire a few more interested list members to actually try it. I don't want to cram Xen down anyone's throat and have tried to find a middle road between encouraging Xen discussion and technical issues while not upsetting anyone that could care less about Xen. It seems that different people have different views regarding what kind of discussions can occur on a user list like this one.  

I followed Xen development for several years.  I am contacting certain Debian authorities regarding the current state of Xen integrated into Debian.  I have an email on the list with regard to this. I have also provided some old URLs that you and some others may be interested in looking at. There seems to have been in 2004, 5, and up to Mar 2006 a lot of effort on the part of some to provide a clean integration between 
Xen and Debian but since Mar 2006 everything seems to be dead in the water.


If I had more experience in debian packaging and package commands as well as 
the CVS system(s) in use then I would be willing to participate in the 
development of definition of Xen packages for Debian as it appears they are 
looking for help in this area of Debian development.

I took early retirement from IT and was involved in engineering and computer 
software development and since then moved closer to the Linux side of things. I 
think I may have aggravated my superiors at the top of the administrative 
ladder when I started to advocate the advantages to the organization of linux 
just like I am now aggravating a few people on the list about the advantages to 
computing offered by an Xen system. Anyway, I thought I would share this with 
you as I am really not looking for help as much as I am trying to become a 
valuable member of the list -- if that's possible. But almost everthing to do 
with Debian involves different commands, directories, and files.  I started my 
Linux learning curve on Slackware and had this book that was about 3 inches 
thick on every Linux subject imaginable.  Very few of those commands and 
command syntax would work on Debian and there are 10 dozen solutions for any 
given problem on Debian. So its a lot to climatize to in just a few days.

Anyway, you did a very nice job of presenting your Xen connectivity and maybe a 
few others will do the same.  But I've got lots of these examples from the Xen 
development list.  I just wanted to get some worthwhile discussion and thinking 
going.  Maybe I've gone too far in that direction and I might cool it until I 
get information back from the special Debian Xen task force that most people 
don't even know about.

Bye for now, keep up the good work, Ted

[Debian-User] Xen Debian Package Management

[Admin]

Re: http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/  is the Xen Wiki front page.
The following information may be a partial answer to some of the 
questions on the Debian-User list regarding obtaining a Debian friendly 
package as well as the difficulties encountered.


Ian (one of the leading developers of Xen) has made some comments on the 
lists about "a concerted, organised group effort on debian packaging and 
documentation," 
 
so I (the wiki page creator) created this page in the hopes that the 
various people on the lists (and off) who have offered to help would 
check in and leave a brief note about what they might like to do. I know 
it's not very elaborate, but it's a starting point.




   *

 Recently a new group, called the Xen Debian Team, has been formed.
 You can reach them through the project page, on alioth
 . They are working to
 package Xen3 so it can get properly integrated inside Debian.

   * Adam Heath - He's the current package maintainer. He does all the
 real work in creating the Debian packages
   *

 Yvette Chanco (b.k.a. yentlsoup) - I've been trying to help by
 making some unofficial 2.0.6
  and
 2.0.7 
 packages available, getting feedback, and by creating this silly
 wiki page.

   *

 Edward Despard - He's on the Clarkson Xenophilia team, and has
 been awarded a "Google Summer of Code bounty on integrating Xen
 into Ubuntu Linux." Because of the nature of the project, he has
 limitations to the types of collaboration he can do, but since his
 name (and Ubuntu) have been mentioned with regards to this on a
 few lists, I'm adding a link to [the site where he posts his
 progress ].

   *

 Ralph Passgang has created Xen 2.0.7 and Xen 3 packages for debian
 sid/sarge/etch. The xen3 packages are available for 32bit,
 32bit+pae & 64bit.

This is the WIKI page of direct impact to Debian Users:
http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/DebianPackageMaintenance

I will see if I can obtain the current status on LIVE Xen CDs as well as 
the trial Xen Debian packages and their whereabouts. The wiki appears 
not to have changed since 2006 and the following references were in 
effect in 2005.
Xen 3.0.0 Packages are available from packages.debianbase.de. The source 
compiles on 32bit & 64bit and there is an extra source archiv for a 
32bit pae version!


Ralph Passgang's sources are here:

http://packages.debianbase.de/sources/xen/

http://packages.debianbase.de/sources/xen3/

http://packages.debianbase.de/sources/xen3-pae/

Binary packages can be found here:

http://packages.debianbase.de/sarge/i386/xen/

http://packages.debianbase.de/sarge/i386/xen3/

http://packages.debianbase.de/sarge/i386/xen3-pae/

http://packages.debianbase.de/sarge/amd64/xen3/

(Please replace sarge with sid or etch, if you don't use the debian 
sarge release).


Ted

[Debian-User] Xen

[Admin]

One of the several reasons I left a large space on the hard drive was to 
establish a Debian based Xen virtual machine.  To do this Xen is 
installed on top of the Debian kernel.  The Debian distribution is 
installed in a large partition so it can be added to in the future. 
Other distributions and/or specific Debian applications  (derived from 
the primary distribution in the large partition)  can be installed in 
secondary and much smaller partitions.  These secondary installations 
(on their own partitions) are operated on by Xen in a way that 
virtualies them, that is, executes their system calls, returns values, 
and time slices their operation/execution so that many virtual systems 
can  be operating under Xen control of the interaction of the kernel 
resources of the primary distribution.  So it seems like there are many 
separate systems running at the same time but there is only 
virtualization occuring in time slices managed by Xen.


There are major advantages in setting up to a maximum of 64 partitions 
lets say with each one taking a 2 Gig  partition or less.  For example, 
this allows one to set up a variety of servers all virtualized.  While 
these servers are operating one can be examining the merits of  several 
desktops or applications one might find useful.  These investigations 
would be occuring concurrently (by time slices) and possibly involving 
Internet traffic.  Xen virtualization is more efficient than having one 
traditional installation with a desktop, some favorite applications and 
some servers running.  For example, with Xen virtualization one server 
application might be Apache web server.  A second server application 
might also involve Apache but one might be trying to work out certain 
details such as the integration of perl, php, java, etc.  While this is 
going on  Maxima could be running, a data acquisition application, and 
so on could all be running in a virtual environment.  Not only that, 
these virtualized systems can also talk to each other.  In general 
virtualization  (up to a point where the primary CPU, memory , and other 
resources become exhausted) makes very efficient use of the hardware 
resources so that a fair number of virtualizationa can run concurrently 
with only a small dimishment  in overall speed of operation. Much of the 
single system operation is very inefficient when compared to virtualized 
operation.


So that's where I am going.  I was going to do this virtualization with 
SuSE because I am fairly conversant with SuSE but I wanted to explore 
servers and applications of all sorts that seem to be mostly on Debian 
but not on SuSE.  I want to run web servers and explore various 
alternatives.  I want to run math packages, electronic packages, 
physics, and get into many applications that I have avoided because I 
have not had this kind of capability and resoureces in order to 
experiement with them without having to worry about back ups and 
restores and all the kind of head aches that one can get into in trying 
a new package for the first time or compiling  just to find out that the 
system is now dead.  With virtualization, if you kill a virtualized 
system you kill it.  Just fix it or replace it or get rid of it. 
Meanwhile everything else is buzzing along.  There is nothing but an 
endless wonderland of possibilities using virtualization and that's 
where I hope I am going with Debian.  By answering my questions you have 
informed me and helped me appreciate what I can realize out of the 
Debian distribution.


Hope this answers some of the questions I have been getting of the 
nature, "just set up a basic system and add what you want and don't 
worry about the entire distribution".  I see Xen in conjunction with 
Debian as a world of opportunity to evaluate, experiment, learn, and 
blow things up without losing the primary system.  I see only 
opportunity to learn TeTex, Emacs, lilypond, hurd and find out about 
numerous applications. But what I am really looking forward to is to 
develop and compile and meet face to face the death knell of a dead 
system while the rest of the virtual systems carry on without a concern. 
What could be better


BTW if anyone (I've seen a few Xen emails like the one where the AMD 
package disappeared only to be replaced by a 686 based Xen package that 
crashed)  would like to set up a Debian Xen thread maybe we could help 
one another as it seems that this virtualization thing does not interest 
most people.  But I think it's the future for computing.

Re: [Debian-User] Re: More on Network Install

[Admin]

Andrei Popescu

Thanks for your reply. Hope you don't have to snip too much. My yet 
outstanding question is the POOL directory. I think the POOL directory 
contains 'sarge' which would be the latest official release.  But I am 
not sure.


But everyone seems to get distracted about me wanting a local LAN 
mirror of  source and binanry.  Granted that a dial up connection and 
especially a dial up connection that is shared between several machines 
is going to take forever (I estimate over 200 days -- maybe longer if it 
keeps dropping connections on big ORIG files and then starting over). 
However, in the next little while I am scheduled to connect to a high 
speed wireless network which will connect me to a high speed IP. That 
connection will be about 100 times as fast as the dial up so instead of 
taking over 200 days it will only take 1 day. I want this all set up in 
my LAN ready for the high speed connection.When my daughter lived in 
Calgary (Alberta, Canada) I used her high speed connection and down 
loaded some 14 or 15 CD ISO images which I transfered as iso files onto 
DVDs.  This took me all day and all night.  That was the Woody 
distribution. I tried a few months later and tried to get "sarge" but in 
the middle of downloading some ISO images changed and I had to throw 
away a couple of days and nights of downloading. Also, somehow I blew 
away her Internet Explorer as it seemed unable to remain stable under 
the heavy downloading. Never again!  I use just my own stuff or do 
without. She was not a happy camper.


I have been looking for a Canadian source of these 14 CDs -- one that 
uses the Debian authorized images.  I found one (here in Canada)  that 
is based on the DEVELopment directory but I have no iidea if that is 
supposed to be a reasonably stable distribution.  Apparently, they take 
periodic snapshops of the DEVELopment directory.  I don't want periodic 
snapshots. I want something more stable than what DEVELopment. seems to 
be. Sarge would be okay. But that's currently what is in the POOL 
directory. Also, the prices in Canada are about twice that of the USA 
and the shipping is high if ordered from the USA.


At the present time I do not have a machine on which to run DEBIAN.  So, 
I use live CDs or DVDs which claim to also install  the entire 
distribution but I know from experience that 4 or 5 DVDs are required in 
order to get the whole show -- all 14 or 15. So one LIVE DVD is not 14 CDs.


I had reserved  about 200 Gig of space on the C_drv of my busiest 
machine (XP Pro machine with Pentium 3) for DEBIAN running in 
conjunction with Xen the virtual machine.  But I did not partition or 
format this empty space and I cannot get any partition facility to 
recognize that the empty disk space even exists.  Instead, these 
facilities think that this big disk is just 22 Gig and there is no other 
space. If you or anyone else knows of a facility that can reclaim this 
empty space then please let me know. Otherwise, DEBIAN will have to wait 
for the new machine or go dual boot on one still at the computer 
hospital recovering from a faulty disk and slow service. I am 
considering an Intel dual core BUT I DON'T KNOW IF DEBIAN WILL RUN ON 
SUCH A MACHINE??

The entire Debian archive is ~205 GB. You do *not* want to download
that over a slow connection.

Options:

1. Unless you have special needs it is enough to download the first two
CDs. That's about 1.5 GB. If you need just a few other packages it is
much better to install them directly with aptitude (and option 'with
recommends' turned off). You can use the jigdo search facility to find
out on what image is a certain file or what packages are contained on
a certain image: http://www.debian.org/CD/jigdo-cd/#search

2. Order the full CD set (14 CDs?). 


HTH,

[Debian-User] re: Network Install

[Admin]

 I download a 128MB network installer iso so that I could use it to 
download binariy and source files one at a time from over the internet. 
Being new to Debian I tried to understand this process and came to 
understand that all binary files are considered to be a "package" sort 
of wrapped with dependency information.  Apparently, when the package is 
unwrapped these dependencies are determined to exist on the present 
system or are required to be added.


In other words, I need a Debian system up and running (which I don't 
have at the present time) and even then the packaged binaries and 
sources will be unpacked and placed into the system. What I was after 
was a kind of mirror located where ever I wanted on my LAN and I could 
install all or some of them.. I take it that the network installer puts 
together a basic system and then proceeds to install other packages as 
directed by some kind of menu.  This is fine, if that is how it happens, 
but I want my own updateable archive  from which this "network 
installer" can feed .


Any suggestions would be appreciated.  Could I simply do an FTP of some 
Debian mirror?  What I don't like about this FTP idea or the installer 
as far as that goes is that many of the applications I want are not 
available except from their development sites.  Examples are TCL, 
Python, Lisp, and many others;  It lookis like I would have to (separate 
from the installer and separate from the FTP ) gather these binaries and 
sources one at a time site by site.  Or have I got something very wrong???


Also, what complicates my effort is that I have a very low band witdth 
to the Internet having to use a dial up connection from a rural area up 
here in Alberta Canada..  For example, it took me a week to download the 
"network installer".



Thanks Ted.

Thank you.  That was a script I had used in the passed and worked very well.  
Sadly I don't know much about programing or the like but what is the difference 
with this one and the standard postfix init script maintained by the Debian 
package maintainer?

Hi,

I have got a nVidia GeForce graphics card. I was using the 
`nv' driver and everything worked just fine (except 
acceleration). I downloaded and compiled nVidia drivers and 
since then my Xserver refuses to work properly. I got my 
linux configured to start the XServer  after booting - I am 
using KDE. But the X login screen doesn't show up. The 
booting process rund OK while outputting to the text 
console, but upon the XServer start the screen just blinks 
for three times and stays in the text mode.The XServer ends 
saying it cannot load the `nvidia' driver. When i load the 
module via `insmod nvidia', it says that i'm trying to load 
a module without GPL compatible licence, but it gets 
installed. When I start the XServer after that (e.g. 
startx), everything's allright and the XServer starts up 
without complaining. KDE is running just fine and also the 
graphics acceleration works.

Can't I _force_ the XServer to load the module somehow? Or 
is the nvidia kernel module omitted in some script so that 
it doesn't load (e.g. /etc/modules.conf)? Am I confusing the 
`nvidia.o' kernel module with the nvidia X driver?

Thanx.

Partitioning help

[Network Admin]

I am installing Debian and having problems partitioning the drive properly.
During the bad block scan, it starts counting by '10' and is taking forever.
Do I have my drive partitioned wrong?  Is the drive bad perhaps?  How should
it be set in my bios?

debian <- NFS -> Solaris

[File Server Admin]

Hi everybody,

does anyone know how to solve the problem with NFS incompatibility
between Solaris (2.5) client and Linux (Hamm) NFS server?
Here Linux box exports /home and /var/spool/mail.
Problems are: 
 - mailx and elm hang, 
 - tar and make demonstrate indeterministic behaviour...
Simple programs like cp work OK.

Some people say that the problem is that Linux does not have lockd/statd
(and Solaris' lockd says "cannot find inet addr for..."),
but I did not notice at Linux box any requests from Solaris for locking
and anything unusual. Anyway, does anyone know how to solve the problem?

Best regards,
Edward

Re: kernel security?

[John Gonzalez/netMDC admin]

it will probably be best to convince this ISP to set up his routers
properly. Among many filters he should have, make SURE has has at least
these few:

Do not accept packets from OUTSIDE his network DESINTED to HIS network
with HIS network range. Ie. Nothing should be coming in to his network on
his wan link, from within his network.

Dont allow any packets OUT the network unless it is addressed from WITHIN
his network.

You can also block certain ranges, that should not be in use. 10.* 192.*,
others.

Utility needed

[Admin Bob Panther]

Have need of a utility for Solaris 2.x.
Situation is as follows.

Sun is fileserver for many Mac users.  The users app will produce both
large .txt and printable .ps files.
The ps files may exceed 300mb.  The need is to put files on Sun, mv the
txt files to another
directory, and print the ps files. After print, remove the ps files.
The key is in determining when
the file transfer TO the Sun server is complete so the above actions can
take place.  Do not want
to mv or print files that are in a state of growing.  Because by nature
Mac network protocols are slow,
and these files are large, and there could be many users active at one
time, can not use a
time mechanism to list files, wait x minutes etc, then perform the
operations.  Need utility that
knows the actual state of the file.  When properly closed and not being
accessed, script continues and performs the above move and print
commands.
Know of any such utility to monitor the file state before action is
taken
on the files in question?

Regards

Bob Panther

Where you cannot see cyrillic? On web pages? In mail messages?

Can you see yrillic in other X applications?

Anyway, there will be problems even if you'll setup all correctly.
Netscape is buggy. The only way to see cyriliic in pop-up messages on web
pages, in subjects of mail and news messages and in some other places is to
completely erase non-cyrillic fonts from your computer and make cyrillic fonts
looks like iso8859-1. You have to copy cyrillic fonts to other directory,
"mkfontdir" there and edit fonts.dir, replacing koi8-r to iso8859-1.
Than add this directory to fontpath in XF86Config and remove old iso8859-1
fonts direcory from fontpath. 
Do not forget restart X or do "xset fp rehash".

Win95 as a terminal

[Linux admin at alv]

Hello.

I have one Linux box at home (with unstable Debian) and null modem cable, by
which it's connected with Win 95 computer.

Now I can use Win95 as a terminal.

Is there a better solution for using my Linux resources from Win 95 computer?
Notice: no network card. Only null modem.

Can I, for instance, use my dial-up internet connection thru Linux computer on
Win 95?

My Afterstep window manager prevents xv from receiving clicks in root window.
After left-clicking in a root window I see Afterstep's menu. xv still waits.

I just wanted to add that the Mac does not tell you _everything_ it is
installing. This simply is not true. With .sit .sea archives you can open
them up an look to see what is going to be installed. But the standard
Install program will give you a display of what the author wants you to
see being install as it also quietly slips things into your system folder
or resources into the System file.

Just my two bits.
