Re: Offtopic: Transfer a programm from DOS to Linux

Hello list,

I know, there are lots of coders here and I have a question. There is 
an old

DOS application I found, which is open source and GPL.

As far as I know, this application is written in C, it is running in 
textmode

("ncurses-mode").

Since there is no similar linux based application like this, I 
wondered, ho

difficult for an experienced coder it will be, to get a DOS application
natively running in linux.

For those, who are interested, this is what this application is for:

The application is for radio enthusiasts. It can recognize every radio
transceiver with its transmission. This is because every radio 
transceiver has

its very personally transient response, just like a fingerprint. This
application gets its signal then from the if-module via the souzndcard 
and
shows the very special transient response as a graphic. These graphic 
can be
named and whenever the transceiver is sending again, it will be 
recognized.

Very useful to recognize and rerecognize unwanted stations.

I can send the app wherever you want to (attaching it here, does not 
allow to
send the mail strangely), so everyone can take a look. This app is 
available
in the web, but a little bit hidden, if you do not know its exactly 
name.


The original author of the application has sadly passed by many years 
ago, but
as I said, it is GPL. If someone is bored, he can do with it, whatever 
he

wants.

Long text, short question: As I am no coder, though I would like to 
know, how
much time (roughly estimated, not exactly!) an experienced coder would 
need
and if this would be possible at all. How many hours do you think? Is 
DOS C

and Linux C compatible, so that such thing could be easy?

I will be happy of all feedback!

Best regards

When ram memory is critical ?

When I have to worry about memory RAM in case this values are low ? :

cat /proc/meminfo | grep MemFree | awk '{ print $2 }

or

free -m | grep buffers/cache | awk '{print $4}

There are a couple of issues in bonding which can bite the unsuspecting
(as they did me!). Round robin will load balance across multiple
interfaces but can produce serious issues with managing out of order TCP
packets.  Thus, the performance gain decreases dramatically with the
number of interfaces.  In other words, 2 NICs in RR mode will not give
2x the performance nor 3 NICs 3x performance.  I do not recall the exact
numbers off the top of my head but averages are something like:
2 NICs - 1.6x performance
3 NICs - 1.9x performance

The other modes (other than failover) eliminate the out of order TCP
problem but do so at a cost.  All traffic for a single traffic flow goes
across a single path.  The most common way to identify a single traffic
flow is matching source and destination MAC addresses.  Some bonding
algorithms allow matches on layer 3 or even layer 4 data but, if the
switch through which they flow only supports MAC to MAC flow
assignments, it will all devolve to matching MAC addresses anyway.

So what is the practical outcome using non-RR bonding? You have only one
combination of source and destination MAC address for each socket, e.g.,
if you are measuring a single FTP connection, there is only one
combination of source and destination MAC address.  Thus, no matter how
many NICs you have, all the traffic will flow across one combination of
NICs.  You will see no performance improvement.

In fact, depending on how the MAC addresses are advertised from the
systems with multiple NICs, all traffic between two systems may flow
across the same pair of NICs even if there are multiple, different
traffic streams.

On the other hand, if you are using bonding to provide a trunk carrying
traffic from many different source and destination MAC address
combinations, each separate stream will be limited to the maximum of the
individual NICs but the aggregate throughput should increase almost
linearly with the number of NICs.  Hope that helps - John

USB for potato

2008-06-06 Thread Fabio Guerinoni

Hi,
  I have an old computer, that I have resucitate not long ago, running
potato (Debian 2.2). I wanted to load a module, for a USB interface 
storage. Apparently, nothing comes with the original distribution..

.. and the packages that are listed under a search on the site,
do not seem appropriate because they need the debian-installer which comes
in the later distributions.

Thank you, Fabio

Any particular reason why you want to compile it yourself rather than

while already.

Hi Fabio,
I assume you want to compile a 64 bit version.
I found this on the Boinc website:
http://boinc.berkeley.edu/trac/wiki/SystemRequirements
Linux 64-bit ¶

32-bit binaries don't just work on every 64-bit Linux. For example, on
Ubuntu 6.10 or 7.04, 32-bit binaries won't work. They are not even
recognized as valid executables. You first have to install the ia32 package
and dependent packages.

Further, for programs that link with the graphic library, you will manually
have to copy a 32-bit libglut library to the usr/lib32 directory. If after
this they still get client errors, tell them to find your exe in the
projects directory and run ldd to see what libraries are missing.
Cheers,
Jonathan



Oh thanks for the advice man..!

Problem with module bt878

2007-11-10 Thread Fabio S.


Hi all,

I have a Pinnacle PCTV Pro card which used to work fine (under ubuntu 
edgy).

Now I upgraded to ubuntu gutsy and I experience a strange problem.
For the tv, audio/video works fine: I can see/listen using, for example, 
xawtv.
The problem is with the FM radio: any software (for example gradio) 
starts without complaining but I can't ear anything. Moreover, after 
quitting I can't ear anymore from the tv as long I don't 
remove and reload the bttv module.
Under edgy, on the other hand, everything is fine (I still have edgy and 
it is still fine)


To solve the problem, I looked carefully at the output of dmesg in both 
systems and the only relevant difference I can see is the following:


in edgy, when the bt878 module is loaded I get

[17179611.804000] bt878: AUDIO driver version 0.0.0 loaded
[17179611.808000] bt878: Bt878 AUDIO function found (0).
[17179611.808000] ACPI: PCI Interrupt :00:08.1[A] -> Link [LNKA] -> 
GSI 5 (level, low) -> IRQ 5

32, memory: 0xe2001000


In gutsy, at the same place I get

[   33.648000] bt878: AUDIO driver version 0.0.0 loaded
[   33.652000] bt878: Bt878 AUDIO function found (0).
[   33.652000] ACPI: PCI Interrupt :00:08.1[A] -> Link [LNKA] -> GSI 5 
(level, low) -> IRQ 5

[   33.652000] bt878_probe: card id=[0x1211bd], Unknown card.
[   33.652000] Exiting..
[   33.652000] ACPI: PCI interrupt for device :00:08.1 disabled
[   33.652000] bt878: probe of :00:08.1 failed with error -22

On the other hand, for bttv the output is the same. Please note that bttv 
is loaded with the options

options bttv radio=1 card=52 gbuffers=4
which I put in /etc/modprobe.d/options in both systems
(actually, I am bringing with me these settings since I got the card 4 
years ago...)


Thank you for any help

Fabio

Don't you need to do /sbin/depmod -a before you do a /sbin/modprobe?

What i suggest is that you reinstall the stock debian kernel, apt-get
or download the deb and install by doing dpkg -i.

You should get back your modules setup properly.

That looks like a stock debian kernel.  It certianly has all the
iptables support you need out of the box.


No modules avaiable. I've searched all disk for ip_tables.o, no match at all.


You may also want to consider using shorewall.

Can't modeprobe ip_tables

2007-02-15 Thread Fabio A Mazzarino

Hello Folks:

First I'd like to show a limitation in my case. The server is at a
datacenter, so booting a new kernel is highly improbable, only in a
emergency case.

Now the problem.

I can't use neither iptables nor brctl. The problem is that the
module doesn't exist.

Some data:

# uname -a
Linux loghost1 2.4.27-2-386 #1 Wed Aug 17 09:33:35 UTC 2005 i686 GNU/Linux

I've downloaded  kernel-source 2.4.27, and copied
/boot/config-2.4.27-2.386 into /usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.27/.config

First I tried 'make dep', but an error occured. Then I ran 'make
menuconfig', made no modifications, and then ran 'make dep, with no
errors at all.

After this I compiled the modules and installed them (make modules;
make modules_install). No erros again.

The new modules were saved into /lib/modules/2.4.27, not into
/lib/modules/2.4.27-2-386, so the modules couldn't be found.

Then I removed /lib/modules/2.4.27-2-386 and renamed
/lib/modules/2.4.27 to /lib/modules/2.4.27-2-386

This is what happened then:

# modprobe ip_tables
/lib/modules/2.4.27/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.o:
/lib/modules/2.4.27/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.o: unresolved

In other words, it didn't work.

Can somebody, please, help me. I couldn't go any further then this.

Do you in fact have a kernel-image package installed? My memory may be
off, but I don't think a kernel-image packge is actually installed
default.
If "dpkg -l|grep kernel-image" doesn't show anything, you might want to
search for the kernel image that suits your system: "apt-cache search
kernel-image|grep ^kernel-image"

Help: Xfree and P4 with hyperthreading - CRASH

2003-11-25 Thread Fabio Muzzi
Hello debian-user,


I have installed a Debian Woody with a 2.4.22 kernel taken from Debian 
unstable on a Intel 865 mainboard with a Pentium4 processor with 
hyperthreading support. 

The kernel is configured as SMP and it can see the two "virtual" 
processors correctly. Everything works but X crashes the PC completely, 
when it starts or when it stops, randomly.

I have a Matrox G400 card, with agpgart and mga support compiled as 
modules.

I have tried also disabling DRM, unloading modules, and running X. It 
still crashes. 

I have searched google and found absolutely nothing, not only one person 
having the same problem I am experiencing.

Can someone help? Does someone have a similar configuration running (or 
crashing like mine)?

Thanks a lot.

problems with the keyboard?....I don't think so....

2001-11-08 Thread Fabio Cesari
Hi all!

Yesterday I updated a debian woody. It was first installed in June,
therefore most of the installed packages have been updated. After dselect
finished the update process, all seemed to work fine, and all the services
were working well (apache/php, mysql, samba, ssh, etc.). After a few hours I
had to reboot, and this is what happened:

- the boot process executes without showing any error message
- the machine answers to ping requests
- ssh, samba and apache are not responding
- at the login prompt I can't write anything. Pressing keys on the keyboard
has no effect. This is not an hardware problem with the keyboard.

Since both console and remote access to the system are not working, I can't
log in.
Any suggestions on how to solve the problem?
Could be a problem with the locale?

I also tried to boot from a different kernel I had on a floppy, but nothing
changes.

thanks!

Fabio

The problem using devfs is that you need the devfsd running.

Regarding the alsa i made the 2 following modification:

in /etc/modutils/aliases add at the end of the file:

alias sound snd
alias snd   snd-card-XXX

where XXX is the name of your audio card (look at the alsa database to
be sure about
the name)

and then run

update-modules

restart the alsa:

/etc/init.d/alsa restart

and now it might work fine...

It does say 1.99 - and I am proud to say that installing libpam-dev 
and compiling --with-pam fixed things. Why or how I have no idea, but 
it did.

The interesting thing is that the keys were generated by make host-
key, so I don't know why it's rejecting one. The even MORE 
interesting thing is that by enabling PAM everything works - although 
I still get DSA key rejects from the server. However, here is the

The interesting part is that if i ssh -2 forcing the V2 protocol, 
which I prefer, I get a lot more debug stuff - but still no errors.

Nonetheless, I'd really like to know why ssh wasn't running without 
PAM, especially since it's the only programme which gives me trouble. 
Everything else, from sendmail to apache to proftp to pop3d... works 
fine on the first try on both machines (and several others, I might 
add).

Well, I even copied over the binaries and /etc/sshd to be on the safe

OpenSSH 2.5.2p2 grief

2001-03-23 Thread Luigi Fabio
Hello everybody,
I am having some issues with openssh. I have two identical machines 
with 2.2r2 installed. Both have openssl 0.9.6 installed in shared lib 
mode.
The problem is as follows: I installed on both openssh 2.5.2p2 (via 
tarball, bear with me, I can't stand packages). On one, it runs 
without a hitch and has been doing so for about a month now. On the 
second, all messages are identical to the first... but it fails to 
auth with passwords, i.e. it rejects the correct passwords with a 
Failed password  in auth.log. I have been trying to figure out 
what's wrong - at least what's different between the two

Re: How can I install VMware inside Debian?

Hi Aldo,
I've installed it from the tar.gz without encountering any problems

but you can customize (as i remember) some of them during the

GD::Image does not support PNG

2001-01-23 Thread Fabio Berbert de Paula
Hi,

I'm trying to make the GD Graphics Library works
with PNG format support in my perl scripts.

The following packages were installed in my Debian
Potato:

libgd-perl 1.18-2.1
libgd1g  1.7.3-0.1
libgd1g-dev 1.7.3-0.1
libpng2  1.0.5-1
libpng2-dev 1.0.5-1

But when I run my script I get this error message:

Can't locate object method "png" via package 
"GD::Image" at ./grafico.pl line ***

where *** = print FILE $im->png;


The syntax of script is corretc. I tested
it in other machine, where I installed the
packages via tarball.

Some idea?!? ;o)

Please, reply the message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
too, because I'm temporally out of this list.

Thanx,

KOrganizer: strange behaviour

2001-01-11 Thread Fabio Massimo Di Nitto
Hi guys,
i hope someone can help and sorry if this might be OT or a stupid
question but i was not
able to find an answer in the documentation.

I usually leave my pc on duty 24h/day but i noticed after a couple of
reboots that some activities,
that i recorded like appointment, are now readonly and i'm not able to
modify them in anyway.
My questions are:

there is the possibility to put them back read & write and if yes how???

is it a bug or a feature??? I mean it's normale that after a certain
period of time some activities
are marked readonly??? because this might be fine but not for recurrent
events that might need to
be rescheduled, etc.

Thanks in advice

kernel 2.4.0-test9 and Cisco Pix Firewall - Might be a bug???

2000-10-10 Thread Fabio Massimo Di Nitto
Hi all,
I finished a fresh debian installation (woody) with kernel 2.4.0-test9
(tested
in various configurations) and 2.2.17 + pcmcia (latest release)

All the installation is on a laptop with pcmcia support enable for my 2
eth's.

The situation of my network is like this:

 box eth0 ---> Cisco Pix Firewall ---> real internet
 box eth1 ---> real internet

my normal configuration is with eth1 down so all packets have to
"travel" trough
the Pix.

With kernel 2.2.17 everything work fine.
Using kernel 2.4.0-test9 no.

I disabled each kind of iptables or ipchains in a way that my box is
fully "open".

I got that all connections to the localnet are ok while all tcp
connections from my
box to the real internet don't work. I receive a "Connection Refused"
while i'm able
to perform ping or traceroute to the same host.

So I setuped my eth1 directly on the real internet and everything worked
fine.

(also routing was ok in all conditions)

Any idea why there's problem???

Fabio

Re: Bandwidth Usage Check-out

Hi Wilson,
if you need to monitor traffic on a lan i can suggest you both iptraf
and ntop. The last one provide also a mini web interface with traffix
matrix and statistics of any kind (very nice).

Instead if you've to monitor wan traffic routed over boxes that support
snmp the best (i think) is Mrtg. There's also a modified version of mrtg
that use SQL to store polled data over a database but i don't remember
the name of the program.

Linux "HSRP"

2000-08-10 Thread Fabio Massimo Di Nitto
HI all,
I've a problem that maybe someone can help me to solve.

This is my network situation:


| box1 || box2 |

|___|
|
   --  
   | pix fw |
   --

the main problem is that pix firewalls (cisco) are able to "talk" rip
but not to setup a default route with rip. Both the boxes are linux
(debian) with zebra on them working very fine :=)
Now the only solution i found to solve the problem is to put a default
static route on the pix but in this way i loose redundacy.
I would like to know if it's possible to setup a virtual shared ip
address between the 2 linux boxes (not load balancing) to ensure
redundancy.
That's mean that if a linux box is down the other is working with the
same virtual ip to permit the pix to work.

Thanks in advice.
Fabio

Re: Boot floppy [URGENT] [SOLVED]

2000-07-20 Thread Fabio Massimo Di Nitto

Thanks to Dave for suggestions that bring me to this working solution
(also if it's for sure not the best).

Simply during the install procedure before reboot the box substitute the
link /vmlinuz with the custo kernel and rexecute lilo choosing in the
menu
(Boot linux directly from HD).

Now the box is able to boot also if there might be some errors during
modules dependencies calculation (floppy has 2.2.17-pre6-1 inside while
i used a normal 2.2.16) that must be fixed in the next kernel
recompilation to make everything clean.

Thanks again Dave and to the list.

Boot floppy [URGENT]

2000-07-20 Thread Fabio Massimo Di Nitto
Hi all,

I really need a fast help.

I've to setup a debian box with a Compaq Array SCSI Controller.

I downloaded the latest boot floppy for potato to install debian trough
network.

problem:

the Compaq Array where root has to be mounted is loaded only like
module.
I was able to partion disks etc loading the module during the
installation procedure
using the shell on ttyX but now i'd rebooted to continue the setup
procedure and how i suspected the kernel installed on the disk array is
not able to mount root since it doesn't have the module loaded and it
cannot load module not having root mounted.

Now I've compiled a custom kernel with scsi support and cqarray inside
and i made some
try to make a boot floppy but without success.
I used both mkrboot and mkboot.

using mkrboot i'm not able to specify the root disk.
using mkboot it report me (during the boot) lilo error 0x04

How can i do it?
Please help me is really urgent. Any suggestion is welcome

Thanks a lot

Fabio

Re: APT or FTP error.

2000-07-14 Thread Fabio Massimo Di Nitto

Hi Richard I also noticed the same problem but i was also curious to
understand the
error reported:

Read error - read (115 Operation now in progress)

It might be a bug or something similar since it's the server not
available and not
a read problem.

it's obvious it cannot read without connection but might be a good idea
to receive message like "service unavailable".

Thanks anyway Richard

HI all,
since this morning i'm getting the following error

Read error - read (115 Operation now in progress)

This is my s/etc/apt/source.list:

deb ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian unstable main contrib non-free
deb ftp://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US unstable/non-US main contrib
non-free

It worked fine till yesterday on all my woody boxes.

Anyone know if debian has problem today??? It seems like an ftp error.

And which kind of error is this??? (never got it in more than 3 years
i'm using ftp).

Thanks a lot

Hi Jay

You simply do too much things in the wrong order...

make config(or menuconfig)
make dep
make bzImage
make modules
make modules_install
cp arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot/vmlinuz-2.x.y
cp System.map /boot/System.map-2.x.y

modify /etc/lilo.conf to apply to new kernel image and run lilo

note: x.y indicate the kernel version. i use this system since i use to
change
them frequently and maybe you don't need.

it also can appear ex: /boot/vmlinuz-custom or whatever you want.
it's just important you remember than to put the same name in lilo.conf

Hi,
if you need samba on your intranet you can simply use ipchains
(kernel ver 2.2.x)
ex: ipchains -I input -j DENY -s 0.0.0.0/0 -d yourexternalipadd 139 -p
tcp
and ipchains -I input -j DENY -s 0.0.0.0/0 -d yourexternalipadd 139 -p
udp

if you don't need samba it's enought or to stop the service

box#>/etc/init.d/samba stop

or deinstall it :))

I hope this can help you.

HI Ago,
   You can use Traffic Shaper (kernel option and package) but pay
attention
on how to set it since it has some limitation on how to manage bandwith.
I read document long time ago and i remember it can handle from 9.600

Yes, you can find them here:

Pay attention. Potato is still not stable and CD's on this site

i'm not sure but you can find patch for 2.2.14 to support UDMA66
anyway on www.kernel.org you'll find something for sure.

Yes i used it for a couple of minutes just the time to learn that the registered

i admit that i didn't read documentation before install so pay attention not

I read that it works fine on Slink.

exists some patches to make it working.  Anyone have already tryed them?

Are they working or not? It's better to leave the Hd on the /33

Any suggestions?

Try www.starnet.com  X-Win32 is the software you have to download and install.

It's easy to use (at least to me).

I have runned it a lot (till i've cleaned my harddisks from M$). If you need

I've succesfully compiled and used Ssh 2.0.13 both on RH and Debian

You have forgot to built in in the kernel the "packet socket" in networking
options
or if you have compiled it as module you have to load it manually (insmod

ERRATA CORRIDGE [SAMBA] REQ: RealTek8139

1999-05-27 Thread Fabio Massimo Di Nitto




I've to notice an important thing. In some 
messages that i've sent to this mailing list i've advice everyone NOT to use 
samba because it sometimes completly crashes linux boxes. Sorry i've made a big 
mistake. I've just discovered that it works fine. The problem is located in my 
network interface (RealTek 8139 100Mbps).
Sorry to anyone that has followed my 
instructions.
 
Now does anyone noticed some problem with this 
network card? I think that the problem itself is located in the kernel-driver 
because i received a unique log via iptraf of a error packet number and an error 
packet size (only during large > 512Mb file transfer ftp or samba) and then 
the network went down. I think that the hardware is ok because i've tried also 
another 2 card. (3 card that does't work fine???mhhh...:)
 
Thanks a lot and sorry again
