Root filesystem full; faubackup problem?
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hello, My headless home file server (running stable, 2.6.26-2-686) suddenly developed a "No space left on device" error in the / root directory. df reports /dev/hda1 (root directory) to be full; this is a 60GB disc. du - -ch however reports that there is a total of 11GB of data on the disc, virtually all of which is a directory called /backup which I believe faubackup created. The /var/log directory is normal in size. The only thing that I have altered lately is an entry in crontab: 10 05 * * 1 /usr/sbin/faubackup /documents /maxtor/ has changed to: 10 05 * * 1 /usr/sbin/faubackup --clean /documents /maxtor/ Would it be possible that the links that faubackup create have made the system believe / is full? Or is my hard drive developing a fault? I have fsck'ed /dev/hda1 and apt-get cleaned. I tried smartctl which didn't reveal anything.

My (Debian unstable) Audacity 1.3.9 has input selection capabilities as has every version I've used since 2001. Edit..Preferences..Devices..Recording..Device. hw:0,0 is default, and I've played around with 0,1 and 1,0 when I was using a SoundBlaster Creative Live breakout box. As far as I'm aware alsamixer (1.0.20 on my system) always uses 0,0 unless you tell it to use an alternative device with the switch -D. Each device will have a separate Capture control for the individual inputs available on that interface.

When I switched to capture mix the vumeter bars on Audacity Maybe you do not have the small wire from the optical drive connected to the soundcard required for direct audio monitoring when playing CDs. I presume you were trying to do this purely for testing purposes. If you believe Audacity is not functioning correctly there are plenty of other capture tools available: ecasound, arecord (part of the alsa-utils package) and rec (part of the sox package) are three examples, which work beautifully off the command line. > space bar.

Re: Laptop getting so warm : (
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 > [snip] The primary reason I switched to Linux (Debian) in 2001 was due to an overheating laptop (Clevo rebranded for the UK). It transpired that the design was poor and there was a 1GHz PIII desktop processor in it, the budget conscious method to have a high spec laptop without the cost of the Intel mobile processor of the day. By using this OS rather than MS, I managed to keep the computer going for about 18 months before giving up. I did send it back to the distributor who ran their basic test and failed to identify any faults. Searching the internet for Clevo proved to me that it was a design fault, as many users had had this problem. One had the processor replaced which resolved it. You may want to look into this option? I was obsessive about the problem and bought a digital thermometer (no onboard device to do this), firstly placing it on the output vent, then opening up the case and getting it as close to the processor as possible. I did get it to 79 degrees C, which would mean the core temp was a fair bit higher! Sad waste of £2000. At least it converted me to the beauty of open source.

Musings on debian-user list
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 I recently re-subscribed having been off for about four years. The changes I have noticed are: 1. Much less traffic. I previously got 250+ posts per day. Now 50-100. Could this be due to the development of ubuntu? 2. Less flaming. 3. Less digression, and if it occurs, it dies out in a day or two. Previously it could go on for weeks, particularly if a political agenda develops. 4. Some leaders are still here. I am pleased to see Osamu Aoki, Ron Johnson still posting. Not seen Alvin Oga, I miss his satirical way. Is Baloo about still? Any omissions are honestly unintentional. 5. Less newbie posts. Ubuntu? 6. Less configuration questions. Could this be due to improvement of the kernel and included libraries? 7. Less spam. Things that don't change: 8. Flaming for 'OT'. My opinion is that this is a bit OTT, after all they are mostly debian-users. 9. Top-posting by newbies. My view is the fact they are defined as newbies means its unlikely they will understand the netiquette. They can leave this tag behind when they work it out. 10. Thread theft by newbies. Their loss if they don't get replies. All things said, I prefer the list in its current state, as it is more manageable and interesting. Feel free to share your opinions.

The km_drv and km_api_drv modules load successfully but they do not create any /dev/video devices. Should I be using mknod?

How to capture video with ATI graphics card?

Do you think if I compiled PIIx into the kernel as you did, I might get a different result? i think you'll have no piix chipset if you have an athlon ;) you have to compile your IDE chipset into the kernel, i think there are also some global options inside IDE kernel config regarding DMA. I've tried compiling kernels with the default settings, to no avail. This is desperately frustrating! best regards Setting the DMA related options to be built directly into the kernel, not as modules solved this problem. Thank you so much Markus, this head can stop bashing walls! Tim Hmm, I will take another look at that... hope that's it! Thanks For the stock kernels, initrd must preload the modules making them available to the kernel early on, which makes DMA usable. In a self compiled one the loading must be too late. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi,
Could someone please help me find the kernel config settings which I've
neglected, that prevent me from using DMA? I expected inclusion of AMD
and nVidia IDE chipset support (CONFIG_BLK_DEV_AMD74XX=m) would be
sufficient. I have tried enabling DMA only for disks
(CONFIG_IDEDMA_ONLYDISK). I can enable DMA normally with the stock
2.2.20-idepci kernel. I'm using Debian Unstable. I have tried setting
idebus=66 (100 didn't work), and acpi=off.
Follows is a series of relevant logs and messages.
Thanks in advance,

Setting MAC of ethernet at boot
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I wish to set my own MAC for an ethernet interface on my laptop at boot time. What file should I use, or what software utility might do this for me? I can set the HWaddr temporarily using ifconfig eth0 hw ether xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx but DHCP won't work even if I use /etc/init.d/dhcp stop-start. My objective is to connect the laptop to my cable internet provider, using the MAC of my desktop. At this stage I cannot network the laptop via the destop as I don't have an ethernet PCI card on the desktop, and the onboard port is used by the cable internet. I'm using Debian Woody rev1 (want to dist-upgrade to unstable), and 2.4.18 (yes, I intend to get a more recent kernel as well, I'm aware of the security issues). I know an option is to buy a PCI NIC but would like to try the MAC approach first. If anyone can help, I'd appreciate your suggestions. Thank you.
