Look in /etc/resolv.conf on your host system what name server it uses. Then in the virtual machine, run: (replacing 192.168.1.1 with the actual ip address of the name server) dig @192.168.1.1 www.nse-india.com That should tell you if the name server is accessible at all from the virtual machine, or if there is a routing problem or a firewall that is blocking access.

Simply removing GNOME won't cause inconsistencies, but maybe you have to remove a lot of packages manually, since removing meta-packages won't remove network-manager, evolution, gcalctool etc., so you better don't install GNOME in the first place. I agree that we shouldn't install GNOME to a Linux anymore. Upstream forces hard dependencies to PA and systemd, big intransparent buggy blobs. I bet Debian soon or later will switch to systemd too. Current Evolution 3.6 can't share Emails with e.g. Evolution 3.2.3, GNOME nowadays is crap. A long time ago I switched to Xfce4, unfortunately I can't use it's maildir with other maildir compatible MUAs. Evolution's maildir ;). I did not want to install GNOME.

On Wed, Nov 14, 2012 at 2:59 PM, berenger.mo...@neutralite.org wrote: There are 3 solutions, here. The first one is to install KDE, LXDE or XFCE at install time. To achieve this, you have to go to installation options, at boot time. I do not remember the exact name, maybe advanced... Here, you will find things like automated install, expert install, their GUI variants, and alternative desktop environment. The last one is a sub-menu which will allow you to choose a different DE than gnome. The second, installation time again, is to choose to *NOT* install desktop environment when the installer ask you which package you want to install. After that, you will have to install what you want in command line (using apt-get or aptitude, depending on your preferences). This is my usual install process, removing everything, then going into aptitude, disabling auto-install or recommended packages (so many useless things there...) and adding my usual tools. Because I do not use a classic DE, this is easier for me than to remove all crap they install, even more since aptitude does not auto-remove suggested packages marked as automatic (and so makes it harder to have a clean system with only used packages). The last one is when you have an existing installation. Go on a tty, kill gdm (and more generally, X server), then, remove gnome* to install what you want. Removing gnome* can be made by the aptitude ncurses (easier imho), or both aptitude and apt-get command lines. Each of those methods have their advantages: 1: easier when you do not really want a highly customized installation 2: the longer way, but let you install only things you are almost sure to install 3: allow you to correct an error you did at installation time If you need more details, just ask again.

Click/check only the 687G partition and you'll be fine. Alternately, check you Windows help files. There may be a possibility that you can create a set of restore CDs. There is on my Acer so I think it fairly safe to assume that your Acer system has the same option. That way, if you do botch your installation, you can always use your restore CDs. Keep us posted.

I have tried two times to get either of: - GPT + UEFI - MBR + UEFI - GPT + BIOS to work on a ThinkPad T520 and the only think that works right now is - MBR + BIOS My problem was that the UEFI boot menu never offered to boot from the EFI boot partition that I made. I think I might have been missing some efibootmgr magic that was explained here or elsewhere before, but as you managed to get to work, I´d like to know the exact steps or a link to a guide that works, before trying again. Why the GPT + BIOS stuff did not work is beyond me – I hat a BIOS boot partition for GRUB and grub-install also seemed to use it. I bet its not really faster tough since the ThinkPad doesn´t take much time in the BIOS anyway. And due to LVM I do not really need GPT, but it would be nice to have it anyway. I am not dual booting, I am using virtualization for the second OS. I have two ssd's, not at the same time, Win7 host and a Wheezy host.

iceweasel 4 process not closing on exit
When ever I close iceweasel 4 in squeeze, process is not closing. Hence if I restart iceweasel, it says process is running, first close running process.

Re: iceweasel 4 process not closing on exit
Thanks Ron and Simon. 1)there is no window of firefox/iceweasel left unclosed. I tried closing by window close button on top right and also by using menu exit button. 2)Regarding reopening, time delay varied much. In all cases it is same. Further when I restart iceweasel starts on its own.

BIOS shows as FIRST IDEMASTER DVD FIRST IDE SLAVE80GB IDE DRIVE THIRD IDE PRIMARY MASTER 160 GB SATA HDD Debain ETCH shows 80GB IDE Drive as hdb and 160 GB SATA drive as sda. KUBUNTU 0710 shows 80GB IDE Drive as sda and 160 GB SATA drive as sdb. I would like to be enlightened why this happens. -- L.V.Gandhi http://lvgandhi.tripod.com/ linux user No.205042

adept updater problem in updating kernel in etch
When adept notifier notifies update for kernel, I used it to update kernel. For last few times when ever kernel update is done, after downloading it hangs. When I click details, i get the following message. The kernel version running is the same as the one being installed. You are attempting to install a kernel version that is the same as the version you are currently running (version 2.6.18-5-k7). The modules list is quite likely to have been changed, and the modules dependency file /lib/modules/2.6.18-5-k7/modules.dep needs to be re-built. It can not be built correctly right now, since the module list for the running kernel are likely to be different from the kernel installed. I am creating a new modules.dep file, but that may not be correct. It shall be regenerated correctly at next reboot. I repeat: you have to reboot in order for the modules file to be created correctly. Until you reboot, it may be impossible to load some modules. Reboot as soon as this install is finished (Do not reboot right now, since you may not be able to boot back up until installation is over, but boot immediately after). I can not stress that too much. You need to reboot soon. But I can't respond in details. Hence hanging. Then I have to reboot and do dpkg --configure -a apt-get -f install. Here I agree and respond to question in terminal.

Re: How to check if a DVD is damaged?

Mostly I found easy to use Thomas' suggestion: Thomas Hoppeer [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: To verify data on your dvd you can also use star and readcd: http://www.linuxconfig.org/Create_and_burn_ISO_images_with_mkisofs_%26_cdrecord#Verify_data . Now, `readcd' would produce I/O error messages with *all* DVDs, also the ones that I know for sure are all right. So, it was actually not useful at all. Instead, `star' seems to do the proper job: with Sarge I did: # apt-get install star , then mounted the disk, then cd into it and: $ star -cPM . /dev/null . With the damaged disk, it produced an output like: star: Input/output error. Error reading 'rodolfo-30.giu.2007/mobile/opensync/libsyncml/tests/.svn/README.txt'. , then ended up with: star: 118167 blocks + 5120 bytes (total of 1210035200 bytes = 1181675.00k). star: The following problems occurred during archive processing: star: Cannot: stat 0, open 0, read/write 662. Size changed 0. star: Missing links 0, Name too long 0, File too big 0, Not dumped 0. star: Processed all possible files, despite earlier errors. . Instead, with the brand new DVD the output was: star: 119837 blocks + 9216 bytes (total of 1227140096 bytes = 1198379.00k). . So it seems that I can use this tool to verify disk integrity. I didn't try other people suggestions because this one was the simplest for me. Only one thing: the command `apt-get install star' does not work with Etch: it knows no package named `star'. Any suggestion about how to install star under Etch? Thanks indeed, Rodolfo for me in etch apt-get install star works. lvgvaio:~# apt-get install star Reading package lists...
