If downloading images slows down, then it is the download which is slow. 
Not the browser.

So I had "No Images" as my default, starting Opera in "text only" modus;
this allowed me to move between URLs pretty fast, and when I had reached
an interesting URL, I could easily turn on graphics mode.

As pure text browsers, I prefer both: "elinks" and "lynx".

Most browsers rely on the redering engine.
On that field you mostly have no choice but Webkit and Gecko.
Unfortunately, they are the engine under Chrom* and Firefox, even Opera.
Espacially for Midori, it's Webkit.
These are IMPOV really heavy pieces of softwares.

OTOH, as you mentionned, nowadays webpages are full of those Javascript 
pieces of code that really need to be parsed and interpreted.
There is one point of salvation, anyway: the mobile layout, that is 
mostly kept simple and light.
Try, with your browser, to switch the "User-Agent" so that the website 
detects it as a mobile then sends you the relevant layout.
On some browser (Firefox) you'll have to install an extension (you 
looked for lightness, but...).


HTH.

Develop ineo 25e printer and CUPS

I tried several combinations, with or without the PPD, socket:// or

The test page prints OK, but any other page is a kind of source code I 
could not define.

Default & supported service manager in Wheezy

[Mihamina Rakotomandimby]

Hi all,

A long time ago, when I was young ;-), services used to be managed with 
"invoke-rc.d" & "update-rc.d" on Debian.


Know playing with several distributions, some use "service", "sysctl", 
"systemctl", and some of them are mentionned for managing services in 
Debian.


Typically, on a Debian when I "a2ensite", there is a message indicating 
to "service apache2 reload" in order to fullfill the new VirtualHost 
consideration.


I would like to stick with the "native" tools for each distribution I 
manage: On Wheezy what is the right one? What is wrapping what?


Thank you.

providing a static IP/Netmas/Gateway + location of a preseed file at boot prompt.

[Mihamina Rakotomandimby]

Hi guys,

I would like to install my Debian machines with the Pressed D-I feature.

At this moment, I dont have a decent DHCP/BootP server yet, and waiting 
for this to be achieved, I want to manually provide the IP address at 
the boot prompt.


I already use it on others distributions install, but I miss the right 
syntax on Debian.


What I want is to issue something similar to

[...] ip=x netmask= gateway=z 
preseed/url=http://host/preseed.cfg



My guess, reading the documentation is I cant directly put some preseed 
parameters in the boot parameters.

What I want would be:

[...] netcfg/get_ipaddress=92.168.1.42 \
  netcfg/get_netmask=255.255.255.0 \
  netcfg/get_gateway=192.168.1.1 \
  preseed/url=http://host/preseed.cfg


Am I right?

Re: Logging ISP Download Speed.

What's the best programme to employ with regard to logging traffic speed
from my ISP?


To achieve this, you will have to load continuously your connection in 
order to get the max reached.
- If you do this (load test) on your gateway, your poor LAN users wont 
even be able to use the link.
- If you wait for your users to benchload the link, that means you dont 
have QoS, then you'll have very bad end-result and very bad user 
feeling, because a minority will eat the bandwidth up. And at night, 
when no one is in the office, all computers off, you wont log anything...
- If you ever test from one location (say one dedicated server to your 
gateway), you also will have to assume the server is not bandwidth 
overloaded, and has guaranteed bandwidth. If you cant assume that, your 
ISP will say "it's not me, your server is not bandwidth garanteed".



So, to me there is not real solution, but just complain in time when you 
need the bandwith and dont get it.

Hi all,

On my squeeze system, I would like to get a PHP 5.2 release.
This is for development, my dev team needs it.
This is the changelog about 5.2.6 http://goo.gl/Ndvxu

If I get the source package and just build it, I'll get the latest 
version, which I dont want.


Where, in what archive repository could I get an old official source 
package that I'll just compile in order to have 5.2.6?


Thank you.

netbook, close, suspend: ACPI?

[Mihamina Rakotomandimby]

Hi all,

I have a small netbook that I broke the screen.

I use it as a headless gateway now (the VGA port is still OK when 
needed, I just have to plug a screen).


I just noticed that if I "close" (or fold) it, after a while it goes to 
suspend state (or hibernate I dont know exactly). I have to "open" it 
and press the power button in order to make it. If I dont close it, it's 
alright, nothing to say.


How to avoid going to a sleepy state when closed? I want to close it for 
esthetic reasons.


I guess it's about disabling some ACPI, but what is the Debian way to do 
that?

latest kernel packaged for lenny

[Mihamina Rakotomandimby]

Manao ahoana, Hello, Bonjour,

I would like to run a heavy KVM + LXC on Debian *Lenny*.
Therefore, I am looking for the latest kernel for that.

I know I could use backports kernel [1], but would you know another
repository? 

[1] http://packages.debian.org/lenny-backports/linux-image-2.6-amd64

Misaotra, Thanks, Merci.

standard output suddenly uppercase

[Mihamina Rakotomandimby]

Manao ahoana, Hello, Bonjour,

While upgrading a Lenny, I suddenly got the standard outpu uppercase:
http://pastebin.com/ngn3djX5

It's a virtual openvz container upgraded from the physical host with 
 $ sudo vzctl exec $VID apt-get upgrade

After the upgrade finished, issuing basic commands like "ls", "uname"
outputs normal lowercase.

just curious about what happened...

Misaotra, Thanks, Merci.

On a fresh Lenny install,  when running "apt-get update", I get:

 W: Failed to fetch

when verifying by browsing

is no "Packages" file but only "Packages.gz" and "Packages.bz2"

Why doesnt my apt see "Packages.*" files?

No, ext4 has not this limit.
The wikipedia article [1] is wrong.
Read [2]:
Right now the maximum possible number of sub directories contained in a

unlimited number of sub directories.

My fault: I had only packaged for amd64 but my current box was a i386

apt-pinning... and force "old" version.

[Mihamina Rakotomandimby]

Manao ahoana, Hello, Bonjour,

I have a personnal repository where I have 
- postfix-*-2.5.5-0.blueline.0 packages
The personnal repository hostname is "ppa.blueline.mg"
That postfix is a patched and (re-)packaged postfix.

I have also a mirror (for the rest of the packages), where there are
- postfix-*-2.5.5-1.1 packages
The mirror hostname is "mirror.malagasy.com"

The versions differ, the "personnal" version is older.

The "preferences" file contents is:
  Package: *
  Pin: origin ppa.blueline.mg
  Pin-Priority: 701 
  
  Package: *
  Pin: origin mirror.malagasy.com
  Pin-Priority: 100

I expect the "2.5.5-0.blueline.0" postfix to be candidate, but
  $ apt-cache policy postfix
Installé : (aucun)
Candidat : 2.5.5-1.1
   Table de version :
 2.5.5-1.1 0
   100 http://mirror.malagasy.com lenny/main Packages

How to force the choice of "2.5.5-0.blueline.0" as candidate?
I dont want to rebuild my postfix "just" to increase a build number...

Misaotra, Thanks, Merci.

You are a business woman AND "you know more", now. You should then know
it's useless to try to erase such message.

By mentionning those, you increased the backlinks to them and gave more

apt-get

[Mihamina Rakotomandimby]

Manao ahoana, Hello, Bonjour,

I have some collegues (including my direct boss) insisting me to use
aptitude.

I dont want to.

When I ask them why, they just tell "aptitude is better than apt-get".

May be... but I'm used with apt-get and dont want to switch, and I also
Googled a bit and found a post telling apt-get has now the same level
as aptitude. But I lost that link...

What's the status?
- aptitude better?
- apt-get better?

I don't do deep package manipulation, juste update, upgrade,
dist-upgrade...

Misaotra, Thanks, Merci.

Agreed: dead (and buggy) softwares must be out of the distribution.
Whatever happens. If LILO regains upstream coders, its return to the
distribution is quite easy.

I have more bandwidth (1Mbps) at nitgh than during the day (256kbps).
I would like to launch a dist-upgrade, but I want it to happen face to

to face.

Thank you all for your indications. I already have all the needed

Re: overcoming the 32k objects limit is ext3 - which file system to use?

ext4 is unlimited.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ext4 is wrong in the section "Break 32,000
subdirectory limit". SOmeone should correct it, because
https://ext4.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Ext4_Howto#Sub_directory_scalability
clearly tells " Ext4 breaks that limit and allows unlimited number of
sub directories".
There is also an ext3 -> ext4 howto in the same page I gave above.
