No nautilus window pops up when media inserted
Hi all, Since i got no reply on the gnome-nautilus ML i am trying my luck here. :-) I am running Debian testing (i386) on an Athlon64, Kernel is 2.6.12 w/ Debian patches. When i insert a memory stick into USB, gnome-volume-manager automatically mounts the media under /media/usbdisk. However, no nautilus window pops up, nor do i see a corresponding icon on the desktop. gnome-volume-properties shows that all needed features (mount/browse when inserted) are enabled. Any ideas where to look for error messages or such? Who should signal nautilus that a new device is available?

Yes, the USB stick is mounted. B) Check /etc/fstab and make sure you have permissions to read the disk as a normal user. There is no entry for /media/usbdisk in /etc/fstab, it is not needed if media is mounted via pmount by gnome-volume manager. Files on the disk are owned by the logged-in user! Just some ideas!

The box connects to the internet intermittently to download mail, but does not have a persistent connection so I can't use ssh or webmin. I have googled but not found anything. I suppose it would be straightforward to do this with Perl or even shell scripting, but I don't have much experience with either, and as I assume someone has already done this, why reinvent the wheel? In addition to my situation, such an application would also be useful for managing a system from clients such as cell phones or email capable pagers. What is the mail agent on the receiving end? A client like Evo or KMail, or a process like fetchmail? Or an MTA that spools email, waiting for the connection? If it's a client, I'd say you're stuck, since only stupid MS products would execute commands in emails. Couldn't you write something which reads /var/mail/$userid? That's presuming the mail handler puts mail in the mail spool, instead of POP (to be picked up by the MUA) or IMAP. Mail is always delivered to the mail spool. The POP or IMAP daemons pick it up from there and deliver it to the MUA. How about piping in .forward? Like: |/usr/local/bin/mailcmd.sh This would feed your mail into mailcmd.sh The script is executed under the account of the mail recipient. Note that some MUAs refuse to execute scripts as root.

Re: Debian Question - How to start a programm with rcS the task having root privileges
Michael Wuest wrote: Hi there, I did a small programm with gambas. It is there to control an LCD panel for setting up display parameters of X11 and networking parameters of my debian sarge distribution. everything is fine, but the program needs root privileges to access the LCD panel (via /dev/lcd), the networking file interfaces, the ifup/ifdown/ifconfig commands and so on. Now my question is, what do I have to do to get the programm started at boot up (with rcS???) having root privileges??? Thanks, best regards, Michael. Just put a link to the program in /etc/rcS.d or /etc/rc2.d, depending on when it must be executed. The name of the link must be sth like SnnLCDsetup with the value of nn controlling the execution order - lower value for nn means earlier execution.

Re: managing multiple machines
David Wright wrote: Several posters have pointed out that I can get DHCP to assign IPs based on MAC, which goes a long way toward solving my problem. I guess if I share hosts using ldap, I can still give each machine a unique name, too. Now the only problem I can think of with sharing /usr and /etc is that my file server's /etc will contain stuff like /etc/exports, which will end up telling every machine to be a file server. H. You can use a common /etc and replace the client-specific files with links to /var, like /etc/exports - /var/etc/exports /etc/X11/XF86Config - /var/etc/X11/XF86Config ..etc You will however need a unique /var ant /tmp for each client.

Re: Creating CD's from ISO's
Hi Jack, since you are talking about CD-formats (iso9660,joliet), my first guess would be that you had your cd burning software create a new cd image containing the donloaded image as its only file.

Meanwhile I have two problems: 1.

When I run checkpc I get a message indicating that /dev/lp0 is not configured. /dev/lp0 is present with the correct major and minor numbers. What kind of configure does it mean and how do I do it? Why didn't the package configure this when I installed it? The error message is somewhat misleading. Not configured means that the lp driver could not find the hardware for lp0 or that the driver has not even been loaded.

/var/lib/dpkg on diskless linux
Hi, I operate a cluster of diskless linux PCs using debian hamm. It works quite well and i can say that debian causes the least problems with diskless machines (tried SuSe an Redhat too). However i was wondering about /var/lib/dpkg. Normally, in a diskless cluster, every client gets its own copy of /etc, /dev and /var, while /bin, /sbin, /lib and /usr are there only once. /var/lib/dpkg, however, which is NOT specifc for each client, occupies some 10 to 20 MB of disk space. Also, if i install or upgrade packages on the server, the change is not reflected in the client's copy of /var/lib/dpkg. My questions: 1) Why is this stuff in /var? Shouldn't it rather go to /usr? 2) Can i replace /var/lib/dpkg on the clients with a link to the server's /var/lib/dpkg? 3) Is /var/lib/dpkg only used at install/upgrade time?
