Re: Re: CUPS to USB printing no longer working

Greetings -- In trying to print from a USB HP-A310 Photosmart printer 
with hplip 1.6.10 recently installed.


I got these messages:

no usblp module appears but printer.o does appear.

Debian 2.4.21

Changing the Device URI from

Device URI: hp:/usb/Photosmart_A310_series?serial=CN6943504Q04NZ

to USB #1
resulted in the printer printing.

video for compaq prolinea 4/50

1999-05-01 Thread Pat Greenwood
I need guidance in selecting a monitor (and video card?) for a compaq
prolinea 4/50. I'm just beginning and would like to at least run fvwm or
windowmaker. Any suggestions? Thanks.


installing packages -- alternatives to dselect?

1999-04-17 Thread Pat Greenwood
IIci system 7.5.3 20/1G 600M Linux partition 60M swap 68030 33.6 dial-up
stand-alone w/ slink 2.1 installed 3/9/99.
I have just the basic system installed.

Dselect shows I have selected 105 packages to get. dselect Install shows
I have to get 526k of 29M left to get. 'looks like wmakerconf-data
(stable main) is 100% received but dselect won't go on to get whatever
is left.

If you mark more than one site to retrieve stable main contrib non-free
files from, will dselect go back and forth between them to get the
packages or will it recognize one as being redundant and just ignore it? 

Logically it seems like the more effective way to apt-get files in
dselect would be to mark a number of different sites, even if you're
trying to get the same files from all of them. But I ended up getting
here using just http://http.debian.org/debian stable main contrib
non-free.

I'm going to try to figure out what is left and try to bypass dselect.
The mail archives seem to be saying to do this via dpkg directly
somehow. Any suggestions?

My expectation: once dselect Install runs its course entirely and I
[C]onfigure, [S]elect will show that all my selected packages are
installed. Currently [S]elect just shows them marked for install, even
though almost all of them have apparently been retrieved from the site.
When they are all marked as installed then will I be able to read man
pages and run window maker, for example? Or will I then have to manually
unpack installed packages or do something else to get them ready to
work?

 What messages do you get when you run [I]nstall?  Have you tried running
 [I]nstall again?
 
 Occasionally the Packages file has an error and the available version of a
 package may be different.  In that case, it might be better to unselect
 that file and run install to let the other packages complete the
 installation process, then go back and figure out what the problem is.

 They all get retrieved first, then installed.  Sometimes you have to run
 install more than once, although this is rare with the apt method in
 dselect.  After the packages are installed, they are ready for use.

Update from pegreenwood:

Last night I went at it using apt-get install to try to get some of the
hung-up packages. This worked and I then finished off running dselect
again. Everything except gcc_2.7.2.3-7.deb unpacked and set up, so I'll
be fumbling around for awhile now until I break down and buy a book.


access for non-us packages

1999-04-03 Thread Pat Greenwood
IIci 20/1G 68030 33.6 dial-up stand-alone w/ slink 2.1 installed 3/9/99.
I am a newbie. I apologize if the answer is already out there, but I
couldn't find it (about one week trying).
I have just the basics installed, no man pages yet.

Due to the amount of time it was taking to obtain selected packages in
dselect, I edited against the Access defaults to try specific mirror
sites. I'm back to what I think were the suggested paths. I've tried:
http://http.us.debian.org/debian stable main contrib non-free
http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US stable non-US and
http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US non-US main contrib non-free
which I determined from reading the source for apt.

During Upgrade it seems like the http.us.debian.org...path is working,
but the non-us.debian.org... is not. It appears all efforts to access
non-us.debian.org... sites return a 404 Not Found. At the end of Upgrade
I get the error E: Packages file
/var/state/apt/lists/non-us.debian.org_debian-non-US_dists_stable_non-US_binary-m68k_Packages
has changed and the script tells me to correct this. How should the
Access paths be configured?

Is it unrealistic to expect success attempting to install from the net
or should I surrender to CD's?

Is there a faster way to obtain some bells and whistles via the net? My
current plan is to Install the minimum necessary to get X Window running
with wmaker and a couple of games, then add packages later.
