I expect the vast majority of Debian Live images nowadays are written to USB flash storage rather than to read-only media, so I think it would make a lot of sense for those live images to offer the ability to change the image with things like `apt install`. Personally, I've used (minimal) "normal Debian installs" instead of Debian Live for that reason. Stefan

Doesn't include X / X apps - it's just the core of Debian - standard packages, command line only. Default user name is user - default is to use sudo (I think) so sudo su - will get you a root prompt. Use one of the other images that have gnome/cinnamon or similar in their names Hope this helps, Andy Cater

The problem I was seeing was that there *was* no such group defined to exist; i.e., such things as the /etc/alternatives/x-window-manager symlink did not exist. I ended up using # update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/x-window-manager x-window-manager /path/to/my/WM 95 where '95' was chosen because that's the priority of the existing alternative on the system I'm using as the base for comparison. > To only see the available (i.e. installed) x-window-managers: > > $ update-alternatives --list x-window-manager Or, for more information about the link group, '--query'. -- The Wanderer The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself.

Not exactly - I was looking for anything that would set up that symlink, without necessarily assuming that every window-manager package would do it separately. If they do, however, then yes, that list - or at least a statement that "every window manager sets this up directly, independently of all the others" - would be the answer I was looking for. > For a list of x-window-managers, you can use: > > apt-cache showpkg x-window-manager > > Ignore everything up until "Reverse Provides:". That's the part you > want. I actually got to the point of looking for this technique during my own searching, but hadn't landed on it. Thanks for the pointer! In the end, a conversation with someone else ended up leading me to the conclusion that in fact what I hypothesized at the end of my previous mail is correct: it was set up by some previous package, I adjusted it to add the alternative for my locally-built but non-packaged WM, and then the package that originally set it up got removed. So I've just created it manually on the new machine, rather than dancing around with installing and removing packages I don't actually intend to use.

I take it from the content that I snipped that you're looking for a list of window managers, and not a technical explanation of how the alternatives system works. For a list of x-window-managers, you can use: apt-cache showpkg x-window-manager Ignore everything up until "Reverse Provides:". That's the part you want. It should also be noted that x-session-manager is used preferentially over x-window-manager, and some of the things that you might normally call a window manager actually end up being registered as an x-session-manager instead. So: apt-cache showpkg x-session-manager Again, ignore everything before "Reverse Provides:".

Perhaps either install something simple enough to uninstall, like fvwm, or download the same and follow the postinst script. Basically, installing a window manager installs the alternatives scheme. Cheers, David.
x-window-manager alternative missing
What package, or packages, set(s) up the x-window-manager alternative and define(s) symlinks for it? I'm building a new computer, and setting up my (Debian-based) preferred configuration on it, and I've just discovered that there is no x-window-manager alternative defined; as a result, running startx results in invoking x-terminal-emulator instead, which brings up X in a very '80s-looking display and launches a single xterm. I could certainly just create the appropriate alternatives group myself, based on what's already in place on the system I'm preparing to replace with this new one, but I'd rather do this the right way unless there's no clear viable alternative. However, I haven't so far managed to identify what the Debian-native "right way" to get this set up is; on all the previous computers I remember building, once I installed the usual collection of make-X-available packages - specifically, that I remember, xinit (for startx) and xserver-xorg - this is one detail that Just Worked. I'm guessing that installing any of the various packages which have "Provides: x-window-manager" might do it, but the computer I'm preparing to replace doesn't have any of those installed, and still has the x-window-manager alternative. (I run a WM which I compile and install locally, rather than via a Debian package.) If I recall correctly, one of those packages probably *was* installed at some early point in the original installation of the being-replaced computer (now nearly a decade ago), so it's possible that installing it set up the alternatives group and then I just reconfigured that group to my preferred target, so removing the package didn't result in removing the group... in which case installing one such package temporarily should get things working, but it might make more sense to just create the alternatives group by hand. -- The Wanderer The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself.

Re: how to let a user use X window
x11-fonts may not be on your system yet. adding that package may make X11 happier. At a guess I think what happened here is because X11 is missing its fonts first it generates many warnings and eventually generates a fatal error. If you use grep to search log files for fatal and error and warning you can learn lots and fix many things. dmesg|grep -i warning and dmesg|grep -i error when run through less can be informative.

I have 2 suggestions: 1) try disabling desktop effects (although I doubt that will fix it) 2) look for an updated video card driver (probably not in the repository) If both of those don't work, you might need to post a bug report with Ubuntu or the Xorg project.

openshot: X Window System error
Saudações. Tenho tido problemas para executar o programa openshot numa instalação Jessie num laptop Asus. Busco alguma ajuda entre vocês. Eis o caso: ao comando $ openshot obtenho uma longa série de mensagens, codecs e formats e, finalmente, vem a mensagem fatal: The program 'openshot' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)'. (Details: serial 25 error_code 11 request_code 151 minor_code 19) (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously; that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it. To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.) Agora, a parte curiosa: isto ocorre no Gnome e no KDE. Porém, ao rodar o programa sob o Fluxbox, esta mensagem não aparece e o programa roda normalmente! Buscando pela internet, achei várias coisas, mas em geral, neste caso, as soluções são sempre associadas a temas do Gnome. Alterando esses temas, porém, não dá resultado.

Re: enabling remote X Window sessions
Thanks for all the replies and suggestions. Though ssh, vnc, remote XDMCP, Xephr are all fine for running X clients when there is interactive execution of the client by the user, it does not work in my case where there is Open Grid Scheduler batch execution. In my case, the X client of interest is SAS, but it could be as simple as running xclock. SAS needs to run on a remote server, but display locally. I can't start it interactively. I'm sorry that many of you don't like the constraints and risks under which I need to work, but that doesn't remove those constraints. Previously, I identified the gdm3 configuration file that one can change to (supposedly) tell gdm not to run XOrg with -nolisten tcp, though the behavior didn't change after I edited the file. Marc (and Gian hinted at) mentioned that /etc/X11/xinit/xserverrc has the -nolisten tcp in it. This was as he said. However, editing the file did not stop Xorg from getting started with the very same parameter. It must be buried in another place, I fear, hardcoded into gdm3. Brian suggested stopping gdm3 and starting X manually just to see if that worked. I did this experiment, logging in from a console (C-A-F1) and killing the gdm process. I did this and X was started without the -nolisten tcp. It was a partial success. I could run xclock -display myhost:0.0, where myhost is my local host name. However, from a remote server, I could not get it to work. Yes, I know about xhost and had used that appropriately. Kevin Buchs Research Computer Services Phone: 507-538-5459 Mayo Clinic 200 1st.

Re: enabling remote X Window sessions
SAS as in http://www.sas.com - confusing. When I do a nmap scan of port 6000 on my machine from the remote one it reports the Host is up, so I don't think it is blocked. I've used host name and IP address to the same effect when trying to run the X clients on the remote host. I might be able to use some other authentication mechanism, like magic cookie, but I would prefer to use the traditional X network connection. See, I'm a sysadmin working on developing the code for other users to do the same thing, though they may not be using Debian, but more likely using X-Win32 from Microsoft Windows. It has to just work for them, so I would like to develop/test the same configuration on my desktop. There are other times where I need to do similar display of remote X clients for other purposes. All I want back is my old insecure way of doing things, when I knowingly authorize it, like I had under CentOS. But, I'm not going back to CentOS. I did find several of the executables in /usr/lib/gdm3/ have strings of -nolisten and tcp as well as other tell-tale evidence that suggest the parameter may be hard-coded. I might have to dig into the source next. Kevin Buchs Research Computer Services Phone: 507-538-5459 Mayo Clinic 200 1st.

Re: enabling remote X Window sessions
Reco, I tried Xephr as you suggested. It seems to get around the -nolisten tcp choice. Since I will have to specify the display for the remote X client, I won't have to map the port, but can just use myhost:1.0 for DISPLAY. I got xclock -display myhost:1.0 working from myhost. Thanks for pointing out this option. I am still stuck, however, on the remote X traffic not getting through to my box. I'm seeing in kern.log logging of access to port 6000, etc. as I am testing from a remote host. It is not rejecting it as far as I can tell. I used to know something about ipchains, but I will have to brush up to understand what I see from iptables -L to determine if traffic is being deflected. At first glance, it looked clean, however. You asked to which version of CentOS I was referring: it is 6.5, the latest version. Honestly, having been involved in computing since the first days of X-Window, I can't think of another case where I observed the X server locked down. It was always left to the user to control with xhost and the default for that was closed. This behavior with Debian is totally new to me. Even my former use of earlier versions of Ubuntu I knew did not have things locked down. I have not considered lightdm previously, so I'll have to look into it.

enabling remote X Window sessions
I want to run X clients on a remote machines and display on my Debian 7.6 machine. I recognize the security risk. I usually run the lxde desktop.

Re: enabling remote X Window sessions
Brian, Thanks. I was heading in the direction of doing something like you suggested (though I am not sure how to stop gdm and not log myself out), but I thought there has to be a better way. Though it may be the case that I have other X communication problems, based on ps (showing the command arguments), I am sure that Xorg is still running with the argument that disables listening for TCP/IP traffic and I am sure that Xorg will behave as it is instructed.

I'm far from an expert here, but I think when gdm starts, it is starting X, so if you login from gdm, I think X will be started with TCP listening disabled. I thought maybe that if you started X from a command line with startx (bypassing gdm), you could see if that allowed you to make the remote connection you wish. I don't know much about gdm, so I'm not helpful there. Good luck. Kevin Buchs Research Computer Services Phone: 507-538-5459 Mayo Clinic 200 1st.

Re: enabling remote X Window sessions
Search around for XDMCP tutorials. Your local machine needs an Xserver (like Xorg). The machine you want to connect to needs a display manager (gdm, kdm, xdm... i don't think slim supports XDMCP) and the xclients you want to run. You'll have no sound. Look into pulseaudio or jack for that. HTH, Nuno -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

X Window es un software que se utiliza para dotar de una interfaz gráfica a los sistemas Unix. X Window contiene una parte servidor (X Server) encargada de acceder a los recursos de hardware (pantalla, teclado, etc..) y una parte de cliente (X client) que se encarga de interactuar con el usuario. Los errores son producidos por una confianza de los valores que deben de ser retornados por el servidor en la comunicación entre el cliente y servidor X. Se han visto afectadas 22 librerías (de tres proyectos diferentes) que son las siguientes: libX11, libXcursor, libXext, libXfixes, libXi, libXinerama, libXp, libXrandr, libXrender, libXRes, libXtst, libXv, libXvMC, libXxf86dga, libXxf86vm, libdmx, libxcb, libFS, libXt del proyecto X.Org, las librerías libchromeXvMC y libchromeXvMCPro del proyecto openChrome y la librería libGLX del proyecto Mesa. Las vulnerabilidades han sido identificadas desde el CVE-2013-1981 hasta el CVE-2013-2005 y desde el CVE-2013-2062 hasta CVE-2013-2066. Algunos detalles de las vulnerabilidades son: * 17 desbordamientos de entero causados por un error al calcular la memoria necesaria para almacenar el valor retornado por una función. Afecta a total de 17 librerías, todas exceptuando las librerías 'libXcursor', 'libXxf86vm', 'libFS', 'libXt', 'libXt', afectando a un total de 54 funciones. * Un error de signo causado por un fallo al calcular la memoria necesaria para almacenar el valor retornado por una función. Se ven afectadas las librerías 'libXi' y 'libFS' en una función cada librería. * 7 desbordamientos de memoria intermedia causados por una falta de validación de la cantidad de memoria necesaria para almacenar el valor retornado por una función. Afecta a la librerías 'libX11', 'libXi', 'libXv', 'libXvMC', 'libXxf86dga', 'libXxf86vm' y 'libXt' afectando a un total de 24 funciones. * Dos desbordamiento de enteros causados por una falta de comprobación de la cantidad de memoria necesaria para procesar los ficheros especificados por un usuario. Afecta a las librerías 'libX11' y 'libXcursor' en 6 funciones. * Un error por una falta de límites en la recursión en el procesamiento de los ficheros especificados por un usuario. Afecta a la librería 'libX11' en dos funciones. * Una corrupción de memoria causada por una falta de validación de la cantidad de memoria necesaria para almacenar el valor retornado por una función. Afecta a la librería 'libXt' en un total de cinco funciones. Las vulnerabilidades ya han sido corregidas en las librerías correspondientes y pueden ser descargadas desde los repositorios oficiales.

Alternatives x-window-manager, x-session-manager
Bonjour, J'ai beau chercher, je ne parviens pas à comprendre le rôle exact des alternatives x-window-manager et x-session-manager. J'aimerais des réponses, des pistes, des liens, des rtfm (mais alors quels manuels ?)... aux 3 questions suivantes. Pour info, j'ai installé kde4 et e17 dans ma debian wheezy. Pas gnome. L'installation de e17 a été faite en utilisant les paquets des dépôts, pas en compilant moi même. 1) À quoi sert l'alternative x-window-manager ? $update-alternatives --display x-window-manager x-window-manager - mode automatique le lien pointe actuellement sur /usr/bin/enlightenment_start /usr/bin/enlightenment_start - priorité 90 /usr/bin/kwin - priorité 50 La « meilleure » version actuelle est « /usr/bin/enlightenment_start ». Mais lorsque kdm est lancé au démarrage c'est bien kde qui est la session par défaut ; pas enlightenment. Et si j'empêche le démarrage de kdm et que je démarre X par startx, c'est quand même kde qui est lancé par défaut. Je précise que je n'ai pas de .xinitrc ou .xsession(rc?) dans mon home et que ce sont donc les scripts système de /etc qui sont utilisés. Conclusion : l'alternative x-window-manager n'est utilisée ni par kdm ni par startx. Alors quand ou par quoi est-elle utilisée ? 2) À quoi sert l'alternative x-session-manager ? update-alternatives --display x-session-manager x-session-manager - mode automatique le lien pointe actuellement sur /usr/bin/startkde /usr/bin/startkde - priorité 40 lien secondaire x-session-manager.1.gz :/usr/share/man/man1/startkde.1.gz La « meilleure » version actuelle est « /usr/bin/startkde ». Vu l'utilité de startkde, je me dis que cette alternative x-session-manager sert peut-être à choisir le DE qui sera lancé par startx. Est-ce le cas ? Si oui, pourquoi n'y a-t-il pas un lien vers /usr/bin/enlightenment_start dans cette alternative ? 3) Quelle est la manière recommandée dans Debian pour modifier le DE qui est lancé par défaut par startx pour tous les utilisateurs (donc sans créer/modifier des fichiers .[xX]* dans les home) ? Utiliser update-alternative ? Comment ? Modifier des fichiers systèmes ? Lesquels ? Merci. -- Eddy F. -- Lisez la FAQ de la liste avant de poser une question : http://wiki.debian.org/fr/FrenchLists Pour vous DESABONNER, envoyez un message avec comme objet unsubscribe vers debian-user-french-requ...@lists.debian.org En cas de soucis, contactez EN ANGLAIS listmas...@lists.debian.org Archive: http://lists.debian.org/201208131729.47549.edfnet-...@yahoo.fr

The bug report states it is in a review process... but to be sincere, I don't mind the patch is accepted or not. The important thing (from my POV, of course) is that it can be done and that's enough (again, for me) :-) I don't have the need of increasing the wheel scroll speed, but it would be nice to have such option, of course. That's something users are requesting a lot... It seems to me that if the OP of that bug succeeds, all you'd get is _more_ lines/rows of scroll, not fewer - it would still need changes in the app. Wheel sroll speed is slow (at least with my basic 3 button mouse I also barely get 3 lines up/down which can be quite annoying depending on the document lentgh). But if there is a patch to speed it up, I see no compeling reason for not having the opposite and make the wheel scrolls slowly. The patch allows for faster scrolling by sending multiple events for each wheel click. How do you send less than 1 (but more than 0) clicks? I have not read the patch code but how about by reducing (dividing/ substracting/fractioning operations) the events? But I'm inclined to agree with the other view, that the mouse wheel just gives button events, and it's up to the app to interpret them - possibly referring to a system-wide (or DE-wide) configuration - since it clearly means something different depending on the type of app. I don't share that POV. IMO, it will be desiderable to be possible to tweak both options: one (system wide) that affects all applications managed via Xorg's mouse driver and also having the possibility to control wheel speed for every application. This will result in a fine grained configuration that will suit every user need. Desirable, perhaps. Feasible, I don't think so. In the end it seems to be perfectly feasible: 1/ KDE (maybe because of Qt?) users already have such option 2/ There is a generic patch (evdev) for Xorg to implement it It seems to me the real problem is that the wheel just isn't as fine -grained as the movement of the mouse - my mouse appears to have 24 clicks/rotation, and it has no way to measure smaller movements than that. So the only adjustment possible is how far per click, and that needs to be measured differently depending on whether the app is (viewed as being) explicitly line based, the way the OP wants to see their spreadsheet, or effectively continuous. And that's up to both the app and the user, and changing what happens in the driver can only reduce the options for those. IMHO. I don't understand why you think it's something so hard to get. Look, I have next to me my windows computer with a tree-button mouse (2 buttons+wheel) from the same brand and model I use with lenny and using the default mouse driver (the one that comes with the OS). Okay, so I have set there the mouse wheel scrolls down/up 3 lines at a time (whatever-that-means-for-windows) and when I open a spreadsheet and I scroll down I jump from raw 1 to raw 3. Fine. Now I configure the wheel to jump one page at a time (whatever-that- means-for-windows), go to the same spreadsheet and scrolling down takes me from raw 1 to raw 64. That's a hughe gain for sheets with thousand of records. Yes, yes... windows is windows and linux is linux. I agree. But the source of this problem shares the same nature (I can be wrong but I don't think the mouse is treated so differently in both systems, it's a very basic input device, nothing fancy) :-) Greetings, -- Camaleón -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Best check my memory first ;-p I suspect the simplest approach is just to remap the down action by either macro of xbindkeys to the centre mouse button. By default that's usual mapped to paste so you'd need to disable/remap that[*1]. Being able to single line scroll seems like a reasonable and useful ability - perhaps file on the wish list[*2].

X Window System on Samsung n210 (Intel GMA 3150)
Hi, I've bought a Samsung n210 netbook, which has an Intel GMA 3150 graphics card. I've installed Debian testing on it, and KDE 4.4 from experimental.

Removing this package, X works (using the VESA driver, I guess), but the screen resolution is quite bad (800x600). There is no xorg.conf in /etc/X11. What should I do?

Since debian requires perl (e.g for debconf), you'll be better off with NetBSD. Then, write a program in C that looks at every non-binary file to see if what language its in. Can you tolerate shell scripts? If not, you'll have to write a C-based initscript. This may be easier on BSD since it doesn't use SysVinit. Take away the ideological furvor. It would be an excellent learning experience to rewrite, from scratch, everything in NetBSD that is not C. It would be very hard with Debian since every time you update, you'll have to do it all over again. thanks, I got a better choice, the assembly language programmed OS - MikeOS, I prefer assembly to C/C++. So, to summarize some of your earlier posts: you want to recreate an entire OS in C/C++ or preferably assembly, including a replication of GUI functionality such as the one provided by X11-based desktop systems, and you'll probably want to do this alone because you won't accept help from somebody who says that languages that have built-in garbage collection, powerful string processing facilities, and ways to express high-level concepts more succinctly than C/C++ may be the better tool for some (major) parts of the job. Well, I happily expect the release of its first beta by 2050, by which time most of us will have spent our lives making *meaningful* contributions in our jobs (apart from other even more enjoyable things). Your statement that One Microsoft Way would be okay if it was free software just underlines that you don't understand what many posters before have been trying to tell you. There are different tools for different jobs. Some of my colleagues love Windows and everything else that comes from M$. I hate it an love Linux because the latter gives me more choice in the tools I use and allows me to be more productive. (Of course, there's the whole stability thing and the idealism of free software, too ;) .) Are my colleagues right? Am I right? The answer is: both. They chose Windows because it works for them, I chose linux because it works for me. The goal is productivity and using your time wisely. I know you've claimed before that all programming languages you learned so far do the same thing. So I feel I need to put some effort into preventing you from springing this one on me. At a low level, you are right. They all somehow translate into native machine code. But that's the only degree to which your statement is correct. Does C have garbage collection? Does it have regular expressions built into the language? Does it allow you to pass unnamed code blocks as function arguments such as Ruby? Does it support Common Lisp's notion of a closure? Does it support partial function application as in Haskell? The answer to all these questions is no. Is there something you can do in these languages that you can't do in C? No - exactly because C and many other languages are Turing-complete. However, many things are much easier to express, in a fraction of the lines of code, in higher-level languages than in C/C++. And that saves time. On that happy note, I won't waste more time on this and can only hope that you'll wake up before you waste your entire life. -N -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Re: any substitute for x window system?
thanks for your advice! But I have decided to spend my life to develop a one programming language system, that's my ideal. What kind of advice are you looking for? One that agrees with you? If so, I think you've received it (buried in the mass amount of responses, no doubt). 1) it possible to install a desktop-manager without python and perl? -yes and you were offered various suggestions, but of course there is X that must be dealt with. So, you can have you wm/de without a GUI . . . yikes! 2) any substitute for x window system? - not at the moment. That is, there are none out there now. So, you're welcome to develop one yourself/ Although, there is really no need for one with regard to your project. 3) (In general) is it possible to have an OS independent of everything non-C/C++? - yes (with various qualifications) Other than that, I see no reason for you to continue this discussion (here, anyway), for you received responses from many, many folks and you have not provided any more/new insight into your project. We've simply read that you have it over and over (along with redundant advice). You have your ideals and appear to be quite steadfast about them.
