Re: Dual Head Issues in Squeeze

2011-02-11 Thread Dancing Fingers
The answer for xawtv is to run it with the following command:

xawtv -nodga -device /dev/video0

I'm still working on the flickering.  There's no X11/xorg.conf so I'm
not sure where to start.

Dual Head Issues in Squeeze

2011-02-10 Thread Dancing Fingers
Hi guys
I was running dual monitors in Lenny with the ATI driver and
everything worked okay.  I upgraded to Squeeze and I was pleasantly
surprised how easy dual heads were to activate and configure.  But I'm
having 2 issues:
-  the DVI head flickers every second and
-  the dual head configuration kills xawtv.

Has any one figured out a fix?

Thanks.
Chris

ffmpeg not support swf video in Lenny?

2009-04-17 Thread Dancing Fingers
I'm trying to convert an avi video to a swf video in Lenny. So I
download swftools, and look under the FAQ's, you find that avi2swf is
no longer supported.  They actually give an ffmpeg example:
ffmpeg -i video.mpg -b  -s y -pass 1 -passlogfile
log_file video.flv

How this relates to swf files is beyond me.  But if I run (in Lenny):
ffmpeg -i test.avi test.swf
I get:

ffmpeg, swf and flv files

2009-04-14 Thread Dancing Fingers
Hi guys,
I've been experimenting with ffmpeg to create "Flash" videos.  I can
create a .flv (and .swf) video this way:
 ffmpeg -i myVideo.avi myVideo.flv
This .flv  file works great in linux but if I plug it into an  html
object I get squwat -- in  Windows.  Has anyone else got ffmpeg to
produce usable (as in Windows) Flash video or am I trying to squeeze
water from a rock?

Thanks.

Do you have an ATI card?  My experience with the linux driver from
ati.amd.com is generally better than xorg out-of-the-box for dual
monitors.  Just remember to use aticoncfig, aticonfig -h really helps
with available options.

Good luck.

Postgresql 8.3 Question

2009-02-17 Thread Dancing Fingers
Hi guys,
I'm used to Postgresql 7.4  but when Debian 5 came out I had to try
it.  Everything was okay except the ATI driver killed my tvtime but I
can live with that (dual monitors are more important).  The part I
can't live  without is Postgresql -8.3.  I've supposedly installed
postfesql-8.3, postgresql-common, the 8.3 client and server.  I'm used
to tweaking /etc/postgresql/pg_hba.conf and  /etc/postgresql/
postgresql.conf in 7.4, so that I have local access to the db but
these files aren't there and there's no log file?  Is Postgresql 8.3
that much different than 7.4 or am I looking at a bad package
install?  The directory structure seems to be there but many
directories are empty.  When I "su postgres" than I "psql template1" I
get complaints about some Dir not authorized (I'm not at the box right
now.)

Any pointers would be appreciated.

Chris

I'm trying to get Tomcat5.5 working with Poestgresql.  I know I got

this is my /etc/tomcat5.5/policy.d/02debian.policy file:

// These permissions apply to all JARs from Debian packages

It doesn't work so could someone tell me where I'm going as stray?

Eureka, I found it!  All I had to do was
aticonfig --initial=dual-head
on the command line.  Hope this helps someone else.

I tried changing the bus id's on both heads without luck.  The curious
thing is that if I Gnome Control Center>>Screen Resolution it  will
pop up:
The X Server does not support the XRandR extension.  Runtime
resolution changes to the display size are not available.
Thanks for the help.

Dual head problems in Etch k7 kernel

2007-10-16 Thread Dancing Fingers
Hi guys,
I have an dual-head ATI AGP card that I had working great on my AMD64
box, except for a square mouse one side (which I could live with.  But
I wanted to view Flash stuff which isn't supported in AMD64 yet so I
put the card in my Athlon box.  I copied over the same xorg.conf file
but all I get is 2 views of the same thing.
Any ideas?
Thanks.
Chris

This is one of the best threads I ever read.   I took a basic course
in linux security and I stiil feel that I've only scratched the
surface.  I would say the most important thing is to   learn your
system inside  out. You don't know where you're vulnerable  until you
know what server opens what port.

I'm not  a  linux guru but I felt more vulnerable on  my windows
box.It's behavior varied emensly and I always wndered what was
going on.  Most viruses, to the best of my knowledge, are writter for
Windows. My wife hates linux because of all our  security pop-up but
these are a good thing annd remind us to stay alert.  I would also add
that there's nothing like a good password annd unusual username -- the
first wall of defense.
That's my  2 sennses.

I figured it out.  Debian installs Tomcat5.5 and Tomcat5.5-webapps
under group "nogroup". If you change  the group Tomcat5.5 won't
restart.  So  this  is  what I did, as root:
adduser myuser  nogroup
cd /usr/share
chmod 770 tomcat5.5 -R
chmod 770 tomcat5.5-webapps -R

It  didn't work right  away for some reason but I rebooted the machine
and  was able to  create folders in tomcat/ROOT as myuser without
difficulty.

Thanks.  This helps a lot.   I   also tried
chown -R www-data  /usr/share/tomcat5.5-webapps
without much luck.

Basic Tomcatt5.5 Admin question

2007-09-21 Thread Dancing Fingers
Hi guys,
I  finally got Tomcat5.5 going on Etch  AMD and  I start studying the
JSP developers guide but I get stuck in  the beginning.   The book
says to create a  new directory under  ROOT but  I  don't have
permission in my default account.  The  last  install I  did a  chgrp /
user/share/tomcat5.5-webapps/ROOT www-data but I screwed  the package
up so  bad that I re-installed the system.   Could anyone tell me how
the is typically  done?
Thanks.
Chris

Tomcat5, postgres.jar agh

2007-09-05 Thread Dancing Fingers
Hi Guys,
I'm trying to access psql from Tomcat5.  I got the correct driver
because my command-lind test program  works fine.  So I copied the
driver into /usr/share/tomcat5/common/lib, like the documentation
says.  Then I kept getting

Error occurred: org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: Something unusual
has occured to cause the driver to fail. Please report this exception.

I  was told I had a security problem so  I added a file called
chapter1.policy to  /etc/policy.d:
// These permissions apply to the chapter1 web application
grant codeBase "file:${catalina.home}/webapps/chapter1/WEB-INF/
classes/-" {
  permission java.security.AllPermission;
};

grant codeBase "file:${catalina.home}/webapps/chapter1/WEB-INF/
lib/-" {
  permission java.security.AllPermission;
};
//
// The permission granted to your JDBC driver
grant codeBase "file:${catalina.home}/common/lib/postgresql-
jdbc3-8.1.jar" {
  permission java.net.SocketPermission "localhost:5432",
"connect";
};

I still get the same PSQLException
Could anyone send me an example of a security policy that works?  I
don't understand because 03Catalina.policy contains:

// These permissions apply to the servlet API classes
// and those that are shared across all class loaders
// located in the "common" directory
grant codeBase "file:${catalina.home}/common/-" {
  permission java.security.AllPermission;
};

Thanks.
Chris
