VirtualBox is not supported on Debian 12.

why ?

I use it daily and it works well on my debian 12...



There are alternatives that include:

- KVM/QEMU

- VMWare Workstation Pro (which is now free for private use)

cool ! will try it too :)


In my experience KVM/QEMU is fairly stable. The VMWare product not so much.

Given everything is virtual you can easily try all options in an hour or 
two.

Re: CD/DVD is obsolete or deprecate at 2025?

Is there a chance to change in next versions i.e. Debain 13 or other
versions an assembly specifically for a USB flash drive as primary

AFAIK, all the so-called CD/DVD images work just fine when "burned" on
a USB flash drive.  So I think the question is whether it's time to
change the doc to stop suggesting that those images should be burned
onto optical media.

Just a question : why should we ditch the cd or dvd just because some 
guys said that's it was obsolete or inferior to the usb keys et al ?


Memory keys (and ssd and downlodable audio and ...) all have still a 
major flaw in regard to hard stuff like CD dvd or real hard disks, and 
it's their 'volatility'.


these memory devices just dies on us with their contents (our valuable 
or paid for datas, way more often than a hard disk or cd dvd stuff.


and I don't think this will change soon, not where we are now in technology.

btw, the industry pushes forward a total abandon of hard copy of the 
stuff we buy with good money, only to ensure that we would buy it again 
if it was to disapear 'magically' and the buying contract says so in one 
form or another...
Remember the 'robbery' that has occured when buyers of electronic books 
found a day that some of their bought books had vanished from their 
readers devices 'cause the reseller contract had been broke by the 
publisher of the books with some merchants ?


That will be impossible with a real book, or cd, dvd, physical bought 
software. (well if your house doesn't catch a fire at least ;))


industry does not want you to own what you pay for in hard form. as well 
as banks are pushing to the abandon of physical money (notes or coins) 
to have even more control of your hard won money and have you dancing in 
their hands...


sorry if it's OT, but just think to all this by yourselves. ^^)

Hello!

This evening I tried to install virtualbox into a fresh Bookworm

set up fasttrack repository successfully and issue a apt install 
virtualbox command I get:

I was surprised by the python 3.9 dependency, it leads me to think 
fasttrack repos are abandoned? What is the right way to install 
virtualbox in Debian Bookworm?
why not just go to virtualbox.org and download the deb install file ? no 
need for a repo there.

Bonjour,


I have a garmin GPS; in order to register the product and update the
maps, there is only a windows application GarminExpress.

I have no windows install, so I installed wine on my debian sid and
tried to run this program:

wine GarminExpress.exe

But, wine seems to do nothing, says nothing and, after a while gives
up without any message...


Do I have to install something else? Is there a way to understand why
wine gives up? Some logs somewhere?


Moreover, I cannot see any wine menu in xfce menus... Is it normal?


Thanks for anty help.

Of course, but I'm wondering why these applications made for watching
a moovie do not turn dpms, (or screensavers or power management or...)
off as soon as you ask for full screen. It seems that this feature
does not exist in kaffeine and, while it exists in vlc, it does not work!

OK! Compilation succeeded after installing kernel 3.13 and removing
dkms...

BUT it does not work!

fglrx module is there, fglrx module can be installed by the kernel,
but X does not start.

In Xorg.0.log I can see this line:

(EE) fglrx(0): Unspported by intel driver! vendor id 0×8086, device id
0×416

Then a segmentation fault....

Any clue?

Bonjour,

I don't understand the following:

# apt-get install linux-image-3.14-0.bpo.1-amd64
linux-headers-3.14-0.bpo.1-amd64

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 linux-image-3.14-0.bpo.1-amd64 : Breaks: initramfs-tools (< 0.110~)
but 0.109.1 is to be installed
  Breaks: initramfs-tools:i386 (< 0.110~)
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.


What exactly is the problem about initramfs:

# apt-cache show initramfs-tools

Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.109.1

upgrading kernel on wheezy

2014-07-03 Thread François Patte
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Bonjour,


I'd like to install kernel 3.14 on wheezy from backports.

Is the install with apt keeps the previous kernel and add an entry to
the grub menu so I could come back to kernel 3.2 in case...

Thank you

Not sure of what you mean here... If it is that systemd is
unavoidable, you are probably right, but I use my computer to work not
to waste my time in new configurations; I just wanted to reinstall
gthumb (broken I don't know why... probably some missing backward
compatibility taken into consideration by developpers) in order to
work with and not to use many hours to change the init of the
computer... There is a time to install and a time to work... and for
me, time to work is more important thant time to install. I am
probably old fashionned!

Looking back to my first mail, I can read:

The following extra packages will be installed:
^^^
  gcc-4.9-base gcc-4.9-base:i386 geoclue-2.0 gir1.2-pango-1.0 gthumb-data
  libabw-0.0-0 libaudit-common libaudit1 libboost-date-time1.55.0

nvidia-alternative
  nvidia-driver nvidia-kernel-dkms nvidia-modprobe nvidia-settings
  nvidia-vdpau-driver python-uno systemd systemd-sysv sysvinit
 ^
So they are not in recommended/suggested packages

BTW I tried to prevent to install systemd, putting

#Package: systemd
#Pin: release *
#Pin-Priority: -1

in /etc/apt/preferences

and tried to install gthumb after that. The answer came immediately:
impossible because of broken dependencies...

It seems that apt is working differently for different people!

This what is writen as dependencies in packages... OK but I am

Have look here: here is what I can see using gthumb version 3.0.1-2:

http://www.mi.parisdescartes.fr/~patte/gthumb.png

You can't see all thumbnails

thumbnails hide the names

The first row is not displayed...

I cannot access the commentaries I wrote for many images in a previous
version... etc.

What else than gthumb could do that?

The problem is: why do I have to install, for instance,  gcc-4.9-base
gcc-4.9-base:i386  (I don't want to compile anything...)

why do I have to install these xserver:

  xserver-xorg-core xserver-xorg-input-evdev xserver-xorg-input-mouse
  xserver-xorg-input-synaptics xserver-xorg-input-vmmouse
  xserver-xorg-input-wacom xserver-xorg-video-all xserver-xorg-video-ati
  xserver-xorg-video-cirrus xserver-xorg-video-fbdev
xserver-xorg-video-intel
  xserver-xorg-video-mach64 xserver-xorg-video-mga
  xserver-xorg-video-modesetting xserver-xorg-video-neomagic
  xserver-xorg-video-nouveau xserver-xorg-video-nvidia
  xserver-xorg-video-openchrome xserver-xorg-video-r128
  xserver-xorg-video-radeon xserver-xorg-video-savage
  xserver-xorg-video-siliconmotion xserver-xorg-video-sisusb
  xserver-xorg-video-tdfx xserver-xorg-video-trident
xserver-xorg-video-vesa
  xserver-xorg-video-vmware

I have an nvidia graphic card, so, if needed "nouveau" but I use the
proprietary driver...

Why should I install systemd?

etc. etc.

I just wanted to work with gthumb, but it was broken by a preceeding
update

I waste more time to recover a system than to work

man apt-get:

I suggest: use fdisk to create a partition on your 500Gb disk and save
it as fd type (raid autodetect), then dupplicate this partition on
your other disks like this:

sfdisk -d /dev/sdb | sfdisk /dev/sdc

sfdisk -d /dev/sdb | sfdisk /dev/sdd

sfdisk -d /dev/sdb | sfdisk /dev/sde

Then you create the raid array:

/sbin/mdadm --create --verbose /dev/md0 --level=5
 --raid-devices=4 /dev/sdb1 /dev/sdc1 /dev/sdd1 /dev/sde1

Then you format the array

mkfs.ext4 /dev/md0


Then you finish as I said in my previous mail...

How did you create your partitions on these disks?

Every partition should have the same size if you want to put them in
an array.

which should be still similar in Debian 7. If you are new to RAID,


So what HTH you says is the good way: create one partitions on each of
your storages devices (say sdX1 and sdY1) then use the given command:

# mdadm --create /dev/md0 --level=1 --raid-devices=2 \
/dev/sdX1 /dev/sdY1

Then format the created raid array

# mkfs.ext4 /dev/md0

Create a mount point for your raid:

# mkdir /storage-raid

Try the result

# mount /dev/md0 /storage-raid

If everything ok, finish your install

1-

# blkid /dev/md0

/dev/md0: UUID="41Js9Q-0WaZ-JGYR-r88a-FiqA-XS5F-0XWNOy" (of course the
uuid will be different for you)

2- add this in /etc/fstab:

UUID=41Js9Q-0WaZ-JGYR-r88a-FiqA-XS5F-0XWNOy /storage-raid ext4 rw 0 0

3-

# mdadm --detail --scan >> /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf


reboot and see if everything works fine...

Nope! this doesn't work (for many times now!) I had to put some

sessions!

I sent a message SOLVED, it is a bug in polkit...

I don't understand why developping a new init must screw up the old
one! So many times developpers do not care about backward
compatibility and this is boring The best example is GNOME, that's
why I switched to xfce. I can give other examples.

I am a TeX user, and TeX has made many changes since its beginning but
I have some 15 year old files which I can still use, because people
developping TeX take care of final users, I don't think that it is the
case for linux distro developpers/packagers

Culprit are libpolkit-gobject-1-0:amd64 and
libpolkit-backend-1-0:amd64 version: 0.105-6

Going back to version 0.105-4 solves the problem. It also solve the
lightdm problem of impossible shutdown

Yes, I think so because I did not install systemd If you are
right, what about a backward compatibility of installed systems?
Developpers do not care?

Problems are more important than I said first:

1- xfce4 systematically records my sessions when I logout and I don't
want it does

2- lightdm no more allows to shutdown the system I have to do it
as root from console...


PS. These problems are stupid! I just wanted to show to some people
that linux can now be used by people unable to use command line I
missed! They will remain with windows...

Because it is the only protocol which is able to make my printer working.

Anyway thanks for this: /usr/lib/cups/backend-available/ipp14

It seems that cups is not able to find this directory:
"backend-available" and I had to make a symlink in /usr/lib/cups/backend
directory to see ipp14 in cups config page!

Thanks

This was not the problem! In fact icedove read some extension from an
old .mozilla/firefox directory which overrided the icedove-l10n-fr
But, as all these extensions have quite cryptic names, I had to remove
the whole .mozilla directory and reconfigure iceweasel! Why make simple
things when you can make them difficult!

Thank you for helping

OK! I went there and changed general.useragent.locale to fr_FR or fr-FR
but icedove remains in English

I went to "Language" in the extension menu and I could see Français
Language pack is disabled version 3.1.1195 in incompatible with icedove 24.


icedove-l10n-fr is installed and seems to provide a wrong version of the
French language pack

or icedove read this language pack from elsewhere (but where?) and this
override the   icedove-l10n-fr

I don't know! How can I find this?

icedove strange language behaviour

2014-05-03 Thread François Patte
Bonjour,

I have a problem with icedove: the default locale on my machine is
fr_FR-utf8.

On every opened window everything is in French (fichier, Edition,
Affichage... etc.) except for icedove which is in English on only one
user account (on other accounts, icedove is in French).

Where does icedove reads its language config on a user account?

I searched in .icedove directory but did not fing something relevant...


On the user account echo $LANG returns fr_FR-utf8 as on every other
accounts.

Could someone give me a clue?

Thanks.

He doesn't spread any panic here: these  happen when a

I suppose that on the 250Gb drive there are only data (/home or
something else).

You do not need to unplug anything. Just make an "expert mode" install
of the OS on one other disk and when asked for partition by the
installer, it will recognize the lvm. Just tell the installer to not
reformat the 250Gb drive... (but give a mount point!)

OK thanks, I found it...

Any idea how long this bug will last? Or how to have any info when it
will be corrected?

I want stardict because goldendict is not nice too much: mant accented
characters or characters with diacritical marks are not well displayed
and sometimes not displayed at all: I can see a question mark instead...

But, I cannot install stardict and I cannot install anything at that
time because a bug in ruby returns systematically:

/usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/debian.rb:24:in `require': no such file to
load -- debian_version (LoadError)

If I understand /usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/debian.rb requires the file
"debian_version" and tells that this file is not available on my system
but it is there in /etc

Is that a bug?

fail2ban fails to ban apache...

2013-12-21 Thread François Patte
Bonjour,

I try to configure fail2ban in order to ban IP which try to connect to
directories protected by .htaccess.

Here is my [apache] section in jail.conf:

enabled  = true
port = http,https
filter   = apache-auth
logpath  = /var/log/apache*/*error.log
maxretry = 3

But I tested filling the auth form with erroneous login/password and
nothing happens! Nothing appeared in /var/log/fail2ban.log...

I tried the same for ssh connections and the IP of the computer from
which I tried was banned after the third attempt.

What is missing in my config?


Here is the ssh section in jail.conf:

enabled  = true
port = ssh
filter   = sshd
logpath  = /var/log/auth.log
maxretry = 6



Thanks

It is too much: 5 seconds to have informations on what is already done?
If I had no i386 arch installed, I could not use acroread

You answer too quickly Ralph!

It could a nice choice, but there are many things to fix! I made the
choice of xfce at my wheezy install and as I use terminals and cli to
launch my stuff, there are a lot of warnings, for instance:

when I quit evince:

(evince:30376): Gtk-WARNING **: Calling Inhibit failed:
GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name
org.gnome.SessionManager was not provided by any .service files


with acroread (on start):

(acroread:30504): Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in
module_path: "xfce",

etc. I had some similar messages launching emacs and other applications.

So I have to launch my applications like this:

evince beamer.pdf 2>/dev/null &

if I want to get rid of these warnings which can appear if I scroll a
document .

But in php.ini file (from debian), we can read:

; short_open_tag
;   Default Value: On<--
;   Development Value: Off
;   Production Value: Off

I am not making any development, I have no web server in production, I
just use the web server on my computer to check some web files before
puting them on the university web server...

Reading this at the beginning of php;ini file, I thought that short tags
were enabled by default...

As far as I can see in my debian sid install this directory is /var/www
not /var/ww!

And in /etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default.conf

DocumentRoot /var/www


Anyway, the pb is solved: in php.ini (from debian) shorthand tags are
disabled... while in php.ini (from php site) it is by default enabled..

Packagers change the default configuration files and it is difficult to
know why and, up to day, no one on this list seems to be aware of this.

What do you suppose: I am a dumb person trying to run php in an apache
server without apache and without php?

I said that because after running a2enmod php5 I got:

You misunderstood the sentence: the file where the php command is
written is in /var/www and has 644 permissions... (/var/www has, of
course, 755 permissions).

Re-reading my first message, I can't see any extra w in /var/www !

Share VPN connection

2013-11-30 Thread François Fayard
Hi,

I would like to use my computer to share a VPN connection. On Debian 7.2 :

- I get my internet connection from eth1
- I am connecting to a VPN (I am using Strong VPN)
- I share my internet connection using eth0

Everything has been setup using the graphical user interface of Gnome.

If I don't connect to the VPN, everything works well, and the internet is 
shared through eth0. For information, here is the result of ifconfig :

eth0  Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 50:e5:49:c5:c3:bd

Thanks for your help Ron. Without the VPN, route gives :

Kernel IP routing table

With the VPN, route gives :

No non-zero values for these two... no badblocks on sdc3

I tried without any success...

But something is strange: there are some badblocks on sdd3! logwatch
returs errors on sdd disk:

md/raid1:md1: sdd: unrecoverable I/O read error for block 834749 ...:  3

...:  6 Time(s)
sd 5:0:0:0: [sdd]  Sense Key : Medium Error [current] [descr ...:  6 Time(s)

mdmonitor returns:

This is an automatically generated mail message from mdadm
running on dipankar

A FailSpare event had been detected on md device /dev/md1.

It could be related to component device /dev/sdc3.


If I summarize the situation: the faulty disk (with badblocks) is sdd3,
but it is the only active disk in the md1 array and I can fully access
the data of this disk which is normally mounted at boot time, while the
disk sdc3 has no badblocks and is declared as faulty by mdadm!!

I don't understand something!

Anyway. I can delete this array and create a new one from scratch (after
replacing the faulty disk).

Is it enough to run these commands:

mdadm --zero-superblock /dev/sdc3

mdadm --zero-superblock /dev/sdd3

Or do I have also to modify the /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf file?

Thank you for your answer.

I thought it was clear enough that the result of commands mdadm
--details or mdadm --examine were what they return *after* the rebuild
of array md1.

On reboot, I am warned that md1 is started with one disk out of two and
one spare and recovery starts immediately:

md1 : active raid1 sdd3[0] sdc3[2]
  483138688 blocks [2/1] [U_]
  [=>...]  recovery =  7.5% (36521408/483138688)
finish=89.1min speed=83445K/sec

After that, the situation is what is quoted in my previous message

Regards.

raid problem

2013-11-29 Thread François Patte
Bonsoir,

I have a problem with 2 raid arrays: I have 2 disks (sdc and sdd) in
raid1 arrays.

One disk (sdc) failed and I replaced it by a new one. Copying the
partition table from sdd disk using sfdisk:

sfdisk -d /dev/sdd | sfdisk /dev/sdc

then I "added" the 2 partitions (sdc1 and sdc3) to the arrays md0 and md1:

mdadm --add /dev/md0 /dev/sdc1

mdadm --add /dev/md1 /dev/sdc3

There were no problem with the md0 array:


cat /proc/mdstat gives:

md0 : active raid1 sdc1[1] sdd1[0]
  1052160 blocks [2/2] [UU]


But for the md1 array, I get:

md1 : active raid1 sdc3[2](S) sdd3[0]
  483138688 blocks [2/1] [U_]


And mdadm --detail /dev/md1 returns:

Yes! I get this answer:

dm_mod 63645  35
md_mod 87742  6 raid1

mdadm messages

2013-11-04 Thread François Patte
Bonjour,

I have these messages from mdadm:

mdadm: cannot open /dev/md/4: No such file or directory
 /dev/md/4 :
 mdadm: cannot open /dev/md/5: No such file or directory
 /dev/md/5 :

Of course I haven't these directories, I have /dev/md[0-5] instead. Why
does mdadm is searching there directories and how can I get rid of this
message?

Did I say something like that? I *said* that I do not want to build an

I want to build a 32bits package from a 32bits package on an amd64 system.

Is that clear enough?

Bonjour,

Is there a way to build a debian package on an amd64 from a rpm package
built for a 32bits platform.

I don't mean that I want an amd64 debian package, as 32bits can be

I savagely killed these packages, and everything went fine...

I don't know why apt-get is unable to do the job by itself (ie. upgrade
a package) though.

And here is the solution (for those who could need some pdf features
which are not supported by evince, xpdf..., but which can be produced
using free soft like TeX):

The libGL.so.1 is located in  /usr/lib/mesa-diverted/i386-linux-gnu/ and
acroread search libraries in /lib/i386-linux-gnu.

So, I put a symlink in /lib/i386-linux-gnu

OK. At least some compassionate people who have encountered the same
problem here, could have given me some clue.

I know that debian is totally free... But there are two kinds of people
using free softwares, some are not living on the moon and have to deal
with the world as it is and try their best to be as "free" as they can,
others seem to belong to the world of ayatollahs

Thank you, that was my first idea, but how can I find which package
provide this library...

Moreover, it seems that acroread is a 32bit soft (and needs 32bits
libraries) and my install is amd64.

I don't understand how apt-get solves the dependencies: it should
install all libraries needed by the soft you install or stop the install
is one mandatory dependency is missing. No?

Regards
