CUPS client problem
Hello, I have a new laptop (Dell D620, with etch freshly installed) from my new job and I am trying to print using CUPS. The situation is the following, at work there are two different networks: xxx.xxx.10.xxx (let's call it 'internal') and xxx.xxx.20.xxx (let's call it 'external'). The cups print server is a machine on the internal network and my laptop is connected on the external network. I am not seeing any printers whereas when my laptop was on the internal network CUPS could detect automatically all the available printers. Do you have any idea of what I am missing? I tried to add the name of the CUPS server in /etc/cups/client.conf but then when I go to "Desktop/Administration/Printings" I obtain the message: "The CUPS server could not be contacted" Any help would be welcomed, Cheers, Nicolas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

There's a typo in your /etc/fstab (/media/camara instead of
/media/camera),
you're right, I mixed english (camera) and spanish (camara)
and i'm not sure you need to be in the hal group to
get gnome-volume-manager working...
you are also right, I erased me from the "hal" group and it is working
smoothly.
Thanks for pointing out that to me,
Nico

Reading the man pages of pmount it seems that a few conditions should
be verified, which I think is the case:
The mount will succeed if all of the following conditions are met:
- is a block device in /dev/
- is not handled by /etc/fstab (if it is, pmount calls
'/bin/mount ' to handle this transparently; supplying a
label is not
allowed in this case)
- is not already mounted according to /etc/mtab and
/proc/mounts
- if the mount point already exists, there is no device already
mounted at it
and the directory is empty
- is removable (i. e. on USB or FireWire bus, or
/sys/block/drive/removable == 1)
- is not locked (see below)
However when I use pmount in a terminal as a normal user ("pmount"),
it tells me:
zsh: permission denied: pmount.
Can someone having udev/hal/hotplug/gnome-volume-manager running
check the permission of the pmount file. I have:
-rwSr--r-- 1 root plugdev 22K 2004-12-16 19:24 /usr/bin/pmount
I tried to make executable this file for everybody and then I can
pmount manually the device (pmount /dev/gyp-cl-usb /stick) but it
doesn't work automatically when I insert my stick.
Well as you can see I am stuck, so any ideas are welcomed!

Hi,
Sorry I couldn't reply earlier, been a but visiting people over the
holidyas :)
Regarding your USB icon problem, I would suggest you check
1) You are 'hal' and 'plugdev' group member.
2) you have installed:
$> COLUMMNS=150 dpkg -l hal *dbus* gnome-vol* hotplug pmount | grep ^ii
ii hal0.4.2-2Hardware Abstraction Layer
ii dbus-1 0.22-3 simple interprocess messaging system
ii dbus-glib-10.22-3 simple interprocess messaging system

ii python2.3-dbus 0.22-3 simple interprocess messaging system
(Python
ii gnome-volume-m 1.1.2-4GNOME daemon to auto-mount and
manage media
ii hotplug0.0.20040329-1 Linux Hotplug Scripts
ii pmount 0.4.3-1mount removable devices as normal user
3) that log messages appear in /var/log/syslog since the time you plug
in the USB stick till you plug it out. Why don't you list them here?
4) that you have options set to mount removable devices when plugged
in or inserted:
$> gnome-volume-properties
Other than that, I guess there is a bug at present in pmount which
will delete your mount pont in /media when you unplug your USB stick.
There is a bug report about this. It is #286936 in http://debian.org/Bugs

Hi, thank you for your help,
I reinstalled the "pmount", "gnome-volume-manager" and

But the icon of my stick is still not appearing when I plug it in.
However I can pmount it manually with:
pmount /dev/gyp-cl-usb /stick
with the following warning:

Am I missing something? Which logs can I check to see what's wrong with
pmount? Is it a problem of the gnome-volume-manager?
Do you have all the needed packages ("udev" "hal" "fam" etc.)? Also,
look in /etc/udev/rules.d for a symlink to /etc/udev/hal.rules...
Andrea
I reinstalled the "udev" and "hal" packages and I have the "fam" package:
ii fam2.7.0-6File Alteration Monitor
It doesn't change anything, the icons still don't appear :-(
Also,
ls -l /etc/udev/rules.d
total 1,0K
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 2004-12-28 17:02 cd-aliases.rules ->

But now I manage to get automatically an icon for my camera and stick
when I start an Xsession as root! :-) So I guess I have a problem of
groups or permission.
Any ideas of what I can further check?
Now I will make a detail comparison of the logs when I am root or not.
Thank you,

Hi list,
I have the following problem using debian sid (kernel 2.6.8-1). I am
trying to get an icon automatically when I plug in my usb stick or
camera. I use udev / hal / gnome-volume-manager. As a normal user the
links in /dev are created following the udev rules file, but the
device is not mounted (pmount problem?) and hence doesn't appear on
my desktop.
Starting a X session as root, everything is working correctly. My usb
stick and camera are detected, mounted and a nice icon appears on the
desktop.
So I guess I have a problem of permissions or groups for a normal
user but I cannot figure out what? Following a few recent threads

"plugdev" and "hal" (necessary?) group, and the device node in /dev
are created in the "hal" group.

I was having a similar problem and filed a bug report (I was using
Sarge and kernel 2.6.9). You can find the complete bug reports on
http://www.debian.org/Bugs/ by find a bug with the number 286579.
In Sid, using kernel 2.6.9 (2.6.9-1-686-smp to be more precise), I can
see the icon when I insert a USB stick in Inspiron 5160 Dell laptop. I
would suggest try this new version of the kernel.

Hi HS,
Thank you for your response and all your previous posts on this topic
which helped me a lot!
I will hence try with a 2.6.9 kernel. However, reading all the bug
report I didn't manage to understand if it is normal that everything
works as the "root" user or not?
Thanks again,

Re: ATI 3D acceleleration and dpkg-divert
Hi! Just for closing this thread. I finally got 3d acceleration and OpenGL working well following the installation method from http://xoomer.virgilio.it/flavio.stanchina/debian/fglrx-installer.html. Celestia and Tuxracer are running smooth. Thanks to everybody Nico Nicolas de Sereville wrote: Hi! A big thanks to everybody who spare some time helping me. I now have the 3D acceleration working! My error was very stupid... As suggested by Wim, when removing my previous installation, the "dpkg --purge fglrx" command left some files that I did not erased, so I had a mix within new and old files. Deleting the directory and compiling again the kernel module was just fine. Also, I tried with two options: DRM compiled in th kernel and without DRM. The results are the same. However, I have some problem with OpenGL. Celestia is crashing with the error: "Unable to resolve GL/GLX symbols - please check your GL library installation." and the tuxracer is not well running. When racing I can see a lot of "flashing triangles". Is there some files I can check to see if OpenGL is well installed? Anyway, I will try now this method (http://xoomer.virgilio.it/flavio.stanchina/debian/fglrx-installer.html) to see if it resolves my OpenGL problem. Thanks again for the help, it's really nice to know that in this community, when you have a problem you can surely resolve it with the help of the list!

Following the "ATI Radeon Linux How-To", I managed to get the 3D acceleration with the previous xserver version (4.3.0.dfsg.1-6) but overwriting the MESA libGL library with the ATI one, through a "dpkg --force-overwrite -i fglrx.deb". Everything worked well but I had a lot of troubles upgrading the xserver due to the libGL library.

I followed the instructions to install the propriatary driver (http://www.linuxprinting.org/lexmark-faq.html#s_15) and then I followed this thread: http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2002/07/msg00877.html 1) I installed the following packages: cupsys, cupsys-bsd, cupsys-client and foomatic-bin, foomatic-db-engine, foomatic-filter. 2) I installed the foomatic-lexmark-kit, run the install and lexmarkinstall scripts where it generated a ppd file (the one forme the Z53 model) 3) ls -l /dev/usb/lp0 -> crw-rw-rw- 1 lp sys 180, 0 2002-03-14 22:54 /dev/usb/lp0 4) I copied this ppd file to /usr/share/cups/model/Lexmark 5) I restarted cups 6) I added my printer through the user interface. 7) I modified the /etc/cups/printers.conf so that "DeviceURI test:/dev/null" 8) I restarted cups 9) I try to print a test page and ... of course, as a first try it doesn't work! So I read the logs and I can see the line: "D [09/Oct/2004:13:56:00 +0200] [Job 10] sh: /usr/local/lexmark/z53/z53: No suchfile or directory" which doesn't exist since I have the Z55 model running with the Z53 ppd file. I made a symlink of /usr/local/lexmark/z53/z53 to /usr/local/lexmark/z55/lexmarkz55 which seems to be the Z55 driver, but now the error is: "D [09/Oct/2004:13:05:58 +0200] [Job 9] Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:" I can see the jobs in the queue with a "plq" but they are not coming out to the printer. So as you see I am stuck. Does anyone have some ideas that I can try? Nico -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi! However, I have some problem with OpenGL. Celestia is crashing with the error: "Unable to resolve GL/GLX symbols - please check your GL library installation." and the tuxracer is not well running. When racing I can see a lot of "flashing triangles". Is there some files I can check to see if OpenGL is well installed?

Re: ATI 3D acceleleration and dpkg-divert
Hi! A big thanks to everybody who spare some time helping me. I now have the 3D acceleration working! My error was very stupid... As suggested by Wim, when removing my previous installation, the "dpkg --purge fglrx" command left some files that I did not erased, so I had a mix within new and old files. Deleting the directory and compiling again the kernel module was just fine. Also, I tried with two options: DRM compiled in th kernel and without DRM. The results are the same. However, I have some problem with OpenGL. Celestia is crashing with the error: "Unable to resolve GL/GLX symbols - please check your GL library installation." and the tuxracer is not well running. When racing I can see a lot of "flashing triangles". Is there some files I can check to see if OpenGL is well installed? Anyway, I will try now this method (http://xoomer.virgilio.it/flavio.stanchina/debian/fglrx-installer.html) to see if it resolves my OpenGL problem.

There will be a means of telling the make which kernel and which module(s) to make. First, untar the kernel source. Create a "linux" symlink from the /usr/src to the kernel source head directory. Then, copy the system config from boot to the linux src folder as .config. make oldconfig. Then, start the kernel compile. Make is enough. You do not have to go through the whole mess. Once it starts doing CC compilations, you can stop it. What this does is makes sure all the .h files are where they are needed. Now compile the DRM--you may need to give it the path the the linux src folder. Finally, copy the resulting .ko file to the appropriate /lib/modules/ . folder. Reboot.

The "make World" from this CVS would not compile successfully but apparently was not needed--stuff from Sid was enough. Thank you for all this information! I reread the method I followed to install the propriatary driver fglrx (http://g-tec.co.at/ati_alt.html) and I found just before the "Notes about 2.6.x kernels" section that "DRM" was not supported by the ATI drivers. In my case and my actual kernel, "DRM" is compiled. So I am a little bit lost. I remember having read on the web (was not abble to find the web page again...) that one way for making work the 3D acceleration was using the ATI propriatary drivers *or* DRM/DRI *or* the gatos project. Am I right? So if I understand well, you suggest to install DRM/DRI and not the propriatary drivers. Ithink I will try first to deal with the propriatary drivers and recompile my kernel without the DRM activated. It may take some time since I am not very used to do that yet!

Re: [SOLVED] keyboard not working after upgrade
Hi, my keyboard is working again!
Let me explain what I did. After switching off the Xserver by ssh'ing I
was able to use my keyboard at the console. Then after installing icewm,
I "startx" and was able to use my keyboard in this environment so the
problem was related to KDM/KDE. I then tried to use GDM and KDE and I
was able to enter my login and password in the GDM greeting screen, so
it was KDM related stuff. Then I played with the KDM configuration files
and could not obtain anything so I did an "apt-get distupgrade" (i am
running unstable and not testing as stated in my first message). And
everything is now working. I can log in KDM without any problem!
Thank you very much for the help

OK, I shut down kdm as you suggested after ssh'ing. Unfortunately I
cannot check if the keyboard work since I am at work and my box is at
home. I will let you know tonight when I go home. By disabling kdm
temporarily, do you mean that after reboot X is not started? If so, how
can I achieve it?

It sounds very logical. I installed icewm to make the checks tonight.

you're wanting the "es" (Spanish?) layout? Most US-ian keyboards are
PC104 instead of PC105. I'm not sure what that "legacy driver" thing is.
Yes I am in Spain with a spanish keyboard. My /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 file
was generated by the ATI driver to have 3D acceleration and the TV-out
enabled. Instead of "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86", I guess I can
reconfigure X with the ATI tools. Anyway, my keyboard used to work
before yesterday without any problem.
Let us know the results of these tests.
Thank you very much for your ideas and I will let you know as soon as
possible.

I am running debian testing (kernel 2.6.6) and yesterday I upgraded some packages (vim, xemacs, *kdm*, ...). Now my keyboard is not working anymore when kdm asks me for the user and password. I can use the keyboard to choose the OS I want to boot from lilo, but when the x session begins it stops working. I can only enter in my box from another computer through ssh. I guess it is related to the xserver but I cannot figure how. I put in attachment the logs from the XFree server but I don't know enough to see from where comes the problem. Also, from the /var/log/syslog I can see the followings error concerning *kdm*: Sep 1 10:17:04 novae kdm_config[1795]: Unrecognized key 'GreeterPosFixed' in section [X-*-Greeter] at /etc/kde3/kdm/kdmrc:31 Sep 1 10:17:04 novae kdm_config[1795]: Unrecognized key 'GreeterPosX' in section [X-*-Greeter] at /etc/kde3/kdm/kdmrc:32 Sep 1 10:17:04 novae kdm_config[1795]: Unrecognized key 'GreeterPosY' in section [X-*-Greeter] at /etc/kde3/kdm/kdmrc:33 Sep 1 10:17:12 novae kdm_greet[1890]: Can't open default user face I know it is related to the position of the greeting box but it seems to suggest that new version of *kdm* cannot undersand well the older configuration files (during the upgrade I told apt-get to keep the old configuration files). Could it be related to my problem? Any help will be very apreciated, thanx, Nico This is a pre-release version of XFree86, and is not supported in any way.
