Another possibility is to use the xrsh package. Florian, Many thanks, because the remote system is light, I do not prefer to use SSH ( sorry, the line telenet 192.168.1.8 was missing in the problem description)) When I telnet from a Slackware client to the remote host running Lenny + JWM-desktop it is working fine ! So the problem is client pc running Lenny + KDE + xhost + does not accept incoming TCP + X So big question: Where is the is this filter set ? Anyone has any idea ? Thanks, Dieter

Thanks, Sending VLC's video output to a remote X11 server will not be fast (even on a LAN). In this case I think it would be better to use VLC build-in streaming capabilities. The VLC input:streaming internet, Output: audio-card-> audio-system What I would like to achieve is search on the internet for a stream via a browser ( but the DISPLAY is send to my local pc [xhost] ) and play the selected sream on the remote VLC player ( option: while opening a stream [ save or play ?] > play)

Re: advice on cloning system
tom arnall wrote: At the bottom of this post is a description of my last attempt at 'cloning' my old system to my new machine. I put 'cloning' in quotes because it's not really that, otherwise I could just use 'dd'. The procedure left me with a system that seemed fine until I tried to run kdm. The system did this without complaint but gave only a blank screen on Terminal 7. Here is my setup: toshiba satellite 1135 with: 30GB disk debian etch lots of applications toshiba satellite a305-s6857 with: 320GB disk vista My goal is to install etch alongside vista (dual boot) and to copy as many of my applications as I can from my old disk to the new, as opposed to re-installing them from the debian repository. Any suggestions highly appreciated. My research on this turns up only examples where people are doing a true cloning via 'dd,' which is clearly not applicable to my situation because I want to retain vista and because of hardware differences. tom arnall arcata LAST ATTEMPT, WHICH FAILED TO SET UP KDM PROPERLY I want to put linux on a new computer, without having to rebuild all my applications. Following are the steps I plan to take: Install a base system with the same network installer disk which I used for the source machine and without getting anything from the network. Copy to the new machine from old with: su mount /dev/sda3 /sD cp -dRvpu / /sD (actually, I copied directories individually, skipping /dev and of course /sD) The drive on the new machine is bigger and of a different brand. For the copy, the new drive is attached to the old machine as a usb drive. I guess there is a problem with xorg.cfg Try to boot the new pc with a Debian live CD ( or any other which is capable to get the right native screen resolution) to compare xorg.cfg. or run xorg setup program.

Re: iwl3945 doesn't associate to AP with 2.6.26 Linux but does with 2.6.24
Jordi, Do you see the accesspoint with iwlist scan if yes, does this work: iwconfig ESSID "essid_name" without "" iwconfig key "key" iwconfig AP xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx where xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx is the macaddress of the access point. after this you should see that you are connected. - Original Message - From: "Jordi Gutiérrez Hermoso" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "debian-users" Sent: Saturday, November 22, 2008 5:49 PM Subject: iwl3945 doesn't associate to AP with 2.6.26 Linux but does with 2.6.24 The subject pretty much summarises my problem. I have an Intel 3945 wireless card thingie, and it works fine and dandy with Linux 2.6.24 but not with 2.6.26. I can see the network list with 2.6.26, I can even use aircrack-ng to crack WEP keys with 2.6.26 (but not with 2.6.24, which is the only reason I want to boot 2.6.26), but I cannot get the card to associate with any AP, encrypted or not. dmesg just says the association times out; there's no error anywhere else. I am using the latest non-free firmware-iwlwifi, and I don't know why a different Linux would make a difference all other things held constant. Any wisdoms will be much appreciated. - Jordi G.
