Resolution Problems on a Lenovo L191 LCD Monitor.
Hi all, I am running Lenny on an IBM Thinkpad X60 with a docking station, which is attached to a 19 Lenovo L191 screen. I have an Intel Mobile 945GM graphics card and I'm using the intel driver. The native resolution of my laptop screen is 1024x768, while the native resolution of my LCD screen is 1280x1024. My problem is that the resolution on my external LCD screen is is always detected at 1024x768? The monitor is always detected properly (1280x1024) when I use Etch. I can get xorg to switch the resolution to 1280x1024 by running this command xrandr --output VGA --auto after I login. But then I need to logout and back in again so the fonts look right. I couldn' find anything that gave me a clue in my /var/log/Xorg.0.log file. I've got three ziped up logs, one after a fresh boot and one after I changed the resolution and one is the diff between the two. I can attach them for anyone that can help with this, I didn't want to sent it to the entire list. Can someone help me fix this or is it a problem with xorg not detecting my monitor correctly? Here's a snip of my xorg.conf if it will help: Snip--- Section Device IdentifierIntel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller Driverintel BusIDPCI:0:2:0 EndSection Section Monitor IdentifierGeneric Monitor OptionDPMS HorizSync30-65 VertRefresh50-75 EndSection Section Screen IdentifierDefault Screen DeviceIntel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller MonitorGeneric Monitor DefaultDepth24 EndSection Section ServerLayout IdentifierDefault Layout ScreenDefault Screen InputDeviceGeneric Keyboard InputDeviceConfigured Mouse SendCoreEvents InputDeviceSynaptics Touchpad CorePointer EndSection - Thanks Ralph -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Would that cause problems for fail2ban creating rules? Hi Ralph, I've happily used fail2ban on sarge since September. Very effective. You should re-read the docs; README.Debian and /etc/fail2ban.conf especially. Email reports, for example, are disabled by default. Just edit /etc/fail2ban.conf to enable them as you'd prefer. I had some issues with firestarter firewall that are fixed in fail2ban 0.5.4-7. Obviously if your firewall starts/re-starts /after/ fail2ban, you can expect some problems as both programs control iptables. You may find helpful hints for problems in your /var/log/fail2ban.log too. fail2ban is a delight as it dispatches those pesky ssh brute force attacks. Regards, Ralph Thanks Ralph. It's working now. I totally missed the email notification setting. :-( Some times it helps to know if others are using something successfully to get you to take a closer look at the configs.

Hi Justin, I had this problem also. In /etc/pure-ftpd/conf/ create a file called LimitRecursion and inside put: 5 500 'ls' recursion limits. The first argument is the maximum number of files to be displayed. The second one is the max subdirectories depth. That should hold you over for a while. :-) And then restart pure-ftpd (/etc/init.d/pure-ftpd restart). Thanks Ralph Justin Cunningham wrote: Pureftpd uploads a file within it's subdir.

Hi all, I'm using pureftpd on SARGE and I don't know where to put startup options? I think it's in /etc/init.d/pureftpd but I can't figure out what lines to edit to make this happen. I want to run it in TLS mode by default, does anyone know to set this up? Also when I try to stop the pureftpd daemon with /etc/init.d/pureftpd stop and then check with netstat -a the process is still running? I can't shut it down unless I kill the process. Anyone know of a fix for this? Thanks. Ralph -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Replicating Debian Systems
Yup beta 4 does have the e1000 drivers on it. I installed this box with beta 3 and it had them also. But 4 also has them. Ralph After trying to get Debian deployed in a client project for over a year, I've been successfuly in having it approved for use on a 6-server project that we're doing. But, I've got a problem that I'd like some direction with. My experience with Debian has basically been that I've had no problem getting the actual distribution up and running -- I simply install from the Sarge ISOs on CD, and then customize what I want or upgrade to Sid in some cases. But in my first attempt at installing on these boxes, using my Beta 2 Installer, I got an error message that it didn't have drivers for the E1000 gigabit nics on these servers. (I've never used a gigabit nics before with Debian, only with FC and RH). Here's my question: a) does Beta 4 have the e1000 drivers? b) If not, how do I load the e1000 drivers during the install? Or for that matter, how do I load ANY drivers during install that aren't part of the Sarge or Sid distributions? Thanks for any advice!

Re: Replicating Debian Systems
Yes there is a driver disk, If you add your driver to the disk then during the install (someware) it asks you if you want/need to load 3rd party drivers? At that point insert the driver disk and answer yes, then it should ask you for the source of the driver and you would select your floppy drive. Then it will give you a list of drivers on the disk and you select the one you want. Ralph Thanks Ralph! I'm downloading the Beta 4 CDs right now :) Can you (or anyone else) perhaps also give me a pointer to how I would add drivers or kernel mods that weren't included in the distribution during the installation process? I'd like to know in case I need to do it in the future (and just for my own edification :) ). Moe Ralph Crongeyer wrote: Yup beta 4 does have the e1000 drivers on it.

Re: Replicating Debian Systems
Yea, I think you can burn them to a CD. Anyone know this for sure? Ralph u floppy disk? None of these servers have floppy disk drives, and I can't really recall seeing a server or workstation (or notebook for that matter) that had a floppy disk drive in it over the last year or two or three That's what confused me too I've seen references to copy the driver or mod to a floppy disk or load it from floppy but that doesn't seem really practical. Would it work if I put the file on a cd? Has anyone tried loading an optional drive or module from cd?

Re: Supercilious replies and I really do want your help
OK, try this. If you are running a 2.4 kernel then install like this: apt-get alsa-utils alsa-drivers then run: alsaconf and follow the instructions it should find your sound card and install the driver for it. If you have a 2.6 kernel then just apt-get install alsa-conf and then run alsaconf. In the debian kernel-image-2.6 the alsa drivers are built as modules already, since the alsa sound system/drivers are now a standard part of the 2.6 kernels.

libpam-runtime is broken in unstable.
I was installing Debian unstable (SID) on a friends system on Monday evening and I could only get as far as: Installing Sarge from a beta3 installer (no problems) After the install I edited the /etc/apt/sources.list and from testing to unstable, then I ran apt-get update followed by apt-get dist-upgrade. At this point I had libpam-runtime fail to install? I tried to do a fresh install on my laptop last night (Tuesday) and after the install and changing my sources.list from testing to unstable I ran apt-get update and then apt-get dist-upgrade and the same package libpam-runtime fails to install.

Re: Kernel 2.6.5 and Nvidia driver
I'm having this problem with Toshiba 5105 laptop, kernel-2.6.4 and nvidia driver 1.0-5336 downloaded from Nvidia. There is about a 1/4 inch gap of the screen not being used on the right hand side of the screen running vertically. I used to be able to fix this problem (with kernel-2.4.x) by editing my /etc/modules.conf file with this: options nvidia NVreg_SoftEDIDs=0 NVreg_Mobile=2 alias /dev/nvidia* nvidia But now this has no effect? (I'm using Debian SID with kernel-2.6.4). Also, since I'm using the 2.6 kernel, I have put the: options nvidia NVreg_SoftEDIDs=0 NVreg_Mobile=2 alias /dev/nvidia* nvidia commands in the /etc/modprobe.conf file also. Even if I exit out of the GUI and stop x, and kdm and rmmod nvidia to unload the module and then reload it with: modprobe nvidia NVreg_SoftEDIDs=0 NVreg_Mobile=2 to insure that the options are loaded, and then restart kdm and x it has no effect, the 1/4 inch gap is still there?

Re: email server - sendmail problems
What am I doing wrong? is there some setting I am supposed to set to be able to use the email outside the local network? Yes. You have to tell sendmail that it is OK to Relay for specific networks, other than the network it is on. I'm sure you can find this on Google. With postfix it's a directive (For example) mynetworks = 127.0.0.1/8, 123.456.789.100/36 So send mail does something like this also.

Hey Chris, Thanks, I didn't know that the 2.6 kernel uses /etc/modprobe.conf. But that still doesn't work. I think that it's a driver problem because: Even if I exit out of the GUI and stop x, and kdm and rmmod nvidia to unload the module and then reload it with: modprobe nvidia NVreg_SoftEDIDs=0 NVreg_Mobile=2 to insure that the options are loaded, and then restart kdm and x it has no effect, the 1/4 inch gap is still there?
