Extending ext3 root-fs
Hello! I am running Debian 4.0 64bit on an Opteron. My disks are two RAID5 on a IPC VOrtex controller (gdth). My / is becoming a bit to small (Mostly stuff in /lib), so i extended it with lvextend -L +200M /dev/Debian/root Now, to resize the fs i intend to boot from a knoppix-live CD and then use resize2fs to resize the fs. Am i missing anything? might i screw up GRUB or anything else like this?

Apache2 and Encoding?
Hello! I have been running my old web server (with apache 1.3.x) for years, but now it is time to build a new box. But, I ran into a problem: I tried moving my wifes page over, and I get encoding problems. Below is a copy of the header. head meta http-equiv=Content-Language content=sv meta http-equiv=Content-Type content=text/html; charset=windows-1252 titleMin Sida/title /head But, when I serve this page with my old web server, It works. With the new it does not. I used a tool I found ( http://www.thinkhost.com/services/generators/headers-check.shtml ) to see what happened. Old server: HTTP/1.1 200 OK Date: Sun, 01 Oct 2006 07:32:03 GMT Server: Apache/1.3.34 (Debian) PHP/4.4.0-4 mod_fastcgi/2.2.10 mod_ssl/2.8.25 OpenSSL/0.9.8a mod_perl/1.29 Last-Modified: Sat, 25 Mar 2006 05:53:29 GMT ETag: quot;8b8e-ef8-4424dad9quot; Accept-Ranges: bytes Content-Length: 3832 Connection: close Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1 New Server: HTTP/1.0 200 OK Date: Sun, 01 Oct 2006 08:00:33 GMT Server: Apache/2.0.55 (Debian) PHP/5.1.6-1 mod_ssl/2.0.55 OpenSSL/0.9.8c Last-Modified: Sat, 30 Sep 2006 22:14:20 GMT ETag: quot;57aac-ef8-41eb318268700quot; Accept-Ranges: bytes Content-Length: 3832 Connection: close Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8 Now, I suppose I could use AddDefaultCharset, but that would most likely break a lot of other pages.

RE: Apache2 and Encoding?
You may try using a more standards-compliant charset, for example ISO-8859-4, for Northern Europe. Or try UTF-8, it should contain all your special characters. This is the best way if there are a few pages only. Well, yes. But I can't really change everyones pages, because ther prolly is 50-60 sites on the box. Hence I would like a proper solution. smime.p7s Description: S/MIME cryptographic signature
RE: Apache2 and Encoding?
Further to my previous, it appears that character set for the server is the issue. Since you've told the and new servers to use different character sets, that might be part of the problem. Hello! First, I'd like to say that I have not seen a previous post from you in the thread. Could you please resend it to me? Second, the old server has AddDefaultCharset on But if I add that to the new server, it actually sets the charset to on, which isn't really quite what I want :) smime.p7s Description: S/MIME cryptographic signature
RE: Apache2 and Encoding?
Further to my previous, it appears that character set for the server is the issue. Since you've told the and new servers to use different character sets, that might be part of the problem. Killing off /etc/apache2/conf.d/charset fixed the issue. Thanks for the help anyhow! smime.p7s Description: S/MIME cryptographic signature
Migrate system?
If i want to migrate a system from a plain ide system (on board IDE, and root-fs being /dev/hda2) to a new system where the root-fs would be on a ICP-Vortex RAID-controller, managed by the gdth module. How would I do that in an easy fashion? I thought I would do the following: 1. amend gdth to /etc/mkinitrd/modules on the existing system 2. generate a new initrd for existing system. 3. Install a basic etch on the new platform. 4. copy just about everything except /proc and /dev from the old system to the new host. 5. edit fstab 6. edit grub config 7. reboot How bad would this fail? Also, for the gdth-based system, how can I create a rescue CD that will boot the system? I can't use makeboot, since the system does not have a floppy drive, but it does have a CD-R/w unit. smime.p7s Description: S/MIME cryptographic signature

The -dev packages generally only have the static libraries and headers, not the sources.

Autologin, not possible to select user?
Hello! I am grying to set up autologin in GNOME 2.1.4 in my Etch-box. But, the only user in the list I can chose from is the user I created during initial install of the system. None of the users created after install (more specifically, I would like to auto-logon the user mythtv) is displayed in the list. Need I perform some additional task for a user to be selectable? (Yes, the mythtv-user has a password, and logging on manually works)
RE: Autologin, not possible to select user?
look in /etc/kde3/kdm/kderc (I think that's the file) you can add users in there Will certainly do when I get home, thanks! But, would GNOME use KDE3 config files?
RE: Autologin, not possible to select user?
Hi Jan, I was looking into setting up a kiosk mode with gdm/gnome and I read about gdm having 2 options (not sure they are in the gdm in etch/testing) in Sid. It has autologin and timed autologin. You edit the /etc/gdm/gdm.conf. this autologsin the kiosk user - [daemon] AutomaticLogin=kiosk - this autologsin the kiosk user after 10 seconds - [daemon] TimedLoginEnable=true TimedLogin=kiosk TimedLoginDelay=10 Actually, No. Because this is what I have been doing. It simply will not accept any user created post-install. If I try, I only get a beep when GDM starts up, and then I get a normal login prompt. Thanks tho! smime.p7s Description: S/MIME cryptographic signature
RE: Autologin, not possible to select user?
hope this helps Kev H, for some reason, it seem to only accept users with a UID 1000. I changed the UID of mythtv from 108 - 1003, and then all was well. smime.p7s Description: S/MIME cryptographic signature

No RAIDs defined in /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf. However, mdrun searches for all RAIDs (IIRC by partition type = 0xfd) and starts them. Well, I haved DEVICE partitions in there. Should not that do a scan?
RE: md array not starting?
No RAIDs defined in /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf. However, mdrun searches for all RAIDs (IIRC by partition type = 0xfd) and starts them. I wouldn't recommend doing this blindly but given what you've posted I think this will fix your config for you: mdadm --examine --scan /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf --Mike Bird Also, how would I hot wire the init-script to use mdrun instead?
RE: Resize raid? RAID Reconfig Tool?
because you forgot the missing drive Lets change that theory. Lets say I want to growthe array as I move data over. And I need to grow it in several stages. Then I can not use missing, since I then I effect have 1 missing drives in a RAID-5. So, is there tools to actually _add_ drives to an existin Raid5?

Resize raid? RAID Reconfig Tool?
Is RAID Reconfiguration Tool ( http://unthought.net/raidreconf/ ) still the only way to reconfigure an array? I just thought since the page is from 2001 maybe there is a new way? I would like to add another 200GB disk and go from RAID-1 - RAID-5
RE: Resize raid? RAID Reconfig Tool?
We use mdadm to administer our software raid. For (certain) hardware raid there other tools available. Just apt-cache search raid... Wait... does mdadm have that built in?
RE: Resize raid? RAID Reconfig Tool?
We use mdadm to administer our software raid. For (certain) hardware raid there other tools available. Just apt-cache search raid... Wait... does mdadm have that built in? Let's rephrase that. Lets say I just did cookiemonster:/mnt/hde1# mdadm --create /dev/md0 --level=5 --raid-devices=2 /dev/hd[cd]1 --auto mdadm: array /dev/md0 started. Which gives me a RAID5 on 2x200GB (That right now really is a RAID1) And I later on would like to add _another_ 200GB disk to that array and turn it into a 400GB RAID5, can mdadm do that? I see a grow switch, but I am abit unclear about the usage. I think I'll be using XFS on that disk, which I understand _Can_ be resized dynamically?
RE: Resize raid? RAID Reconfig Tool?
Raid5 on n-1 disks is more like raid0 Are you sure there? It seem to have come up as one 200GB device? cookiemonster:~# cat /proc/mdstat Personalities : [raid5] md0 : active raid5 hdd1[1] hdc1[0] 195358336 blocks level 5, 64k chunk, algorithm 2 [2/2] [UU] unused devices: none cookiemonster:~# What you can basically do is build a degraded array (using missing) mdadm -Cv /dev/md0 -l1 -n3 /dev/hdc1 /dev/hdd1 missing Wouldn't I want -l5? It will be like having raid0 (in terms of security) but will let you move your existing data onto it. ...which is what I want, cause the last 200GB is the one with the data on.

RE: Error exit delayed from previous errors
However, the resultant home.tar file appears to be OK (I can extract it without evident errors). Google shows a number of references to this problem but none seems particularly relevant.

VMWare Server and Kernel?
I am about to set up a new VMWare host since VMWare Server is now a free application. I have understood that in order to complie the various modules, you must use the exact same GCC for the kernel as for the module. Now, if I want to grab linux-image-2.6.15-686-smp and make sure I can build the VMWare modules how would I go about doing that? Can I download the kernel source and make an exact copy of the prepackaged kernel somehow? As in, all modules compiled the same way and so forth?

RE: SIOCDELRT: No such process (sarge networking)
Now I am wondering if it is hardware-related; I am using a motherboard with integrated ethernet: SiS900 PCI Fast Ethernet (rev 83) Yeap, I have the same situation on a system with that chip. What happens is that eth0 and eth1 simply swaps places on some boots (integrated SiS900 and a Intel Etherexpress Pro 100S) i.e. it seem to initialize the devices in the wrong order sometimes. Personally I couldn't be bothered in finding a real solution, so I just scripted to have the system reboot if eth0 did not come up with the MAC-address it was supposed to have. Ugly solution, but workable.. change MAC's as needed. #!/bin/bash ETH0MAC=AA:AA:AA:AA:AA:AA REALMAC0=$(/sbin/ifconfig | grep eth0 | awk '$0 ~ /HWaddr/ {print $NF}') ETH1MAC=BB:BB:BB:BB:BB:BB REALMAC1=$(/sbin/ifconfig | grep eth1 | awk '$0 ~ /HWaddr/ {print $NF}') if [ $ETH0MAC != $REALMAC0 ] then echo REBOOTING DUE TO MAC MISSMATCH sleep 3 /sbin/reboot fi if [ $ETH1MAC != $REALMAC1 ] then echo REBOOTING DUE TO MAC MISSMATCH sleep 3 /sbin/reboot fi

what happens if you use -M /usr/share/snmp/mibs or -m /usr/share/snmp/mibs/printer.txt with snmpwalk? If this works, there is a configuration problem and the mibdir is not getting picked up. If it doesn't, it's likely you have the wrong mib, or netsnmp doesn't understand the mib. Same results. Do you have any idea what MIB I should use? Or what makes a MIB usable by netsnmp?

Motargumentet kan vara att ext3/reiserfs har något sämre prestanda, speciellt vid skrivning, än ext2. Men jag är inte säker, för det var länge sedan jag kollade det där kontinuerligt.

Håller med föregående talare. Själv gillar jag XFS. Synd bara att XFS/Linux bara stöder 64kB allokeringsstorlek.

RE: Slackware
I have debian distro installed on hda and I would like to install a Slackware on hdb. Now my problem is, When the slackware installer executes it wan't to use both swap partitions. One on hda and one on hdb. I don't want it to do this. Has anyone worked with Slackware and if so did you have the same problem? How did you solve it. For now my only guess is to take out hda from the tower. I have disabled it in the bios, but as you all know Linux will find it anyway. Just take the had swap entry out of /etc/fstab when you have installed slackware. Why dont you want it to use the swap tho?
