[DNG] Nvidia-legacy-340xx driver is not compiled for linux-image-5.9.0.

2020-10-24 Thread Андрей via Dng
Hello.


On the last update of the kernel (5.9.0), nvidia-legacy-340xx driver
would not compile because of some headers are missing. I have

linux-headers-5.9.0-1-amd64
linux-headers-5.9.0-1-common

but it is not enough any more (for the 5.8.0 did). I know, that Sid is
Sid, but by the letter, i want to:

1. declare of such a problem
2. find out, if one has met the same issue, and solved some how.

Thank you.

[DNG] Complete system HDD encryption w/o LLVM.

2020-09-29 Thread Андрей via Dng
Hello.


I've seen on the DeVuan web wite an article on complete system HDD
encryption using LLVM. I have tried that one and found that it is
impossible to change partiotion sizes once it was autopartiotioned,
using LLVM full system HDD encryption.

Question is, Is it possible to to achieve same goal without LLVM --
i.e. to partition system HDD with fdisk, and then still have full
encryption?

Thanks for any advance.

[DNG] X apps. running as another user, using SSH and IPv6.

2020-06-18 Thread Андрей via Dng
Hello.

I can not solve problem with X apps. running as another user, using SSH
and IPv6. Connection with -X6 key passes OK and a i get access to the
users command line, but it still does not let me run X app. because ssh
client tries to set some X session environment using IPv4 protocol, and
gets denied.

What should be configured more in order to use IPv6 with the X session
access through SSH? Or there is a better (faster, easier yet safe) way
how one user can run X-apps under another user?

[DNG] IPv6 on localhost doesn't work.

2020-06-18 Thread Андрей via Dng
Hello.


I try to make localhost inner connections between web browser and
apache server by the IPv6. The idea is to move completely where it is
possible in my environment, to that version of the protocol.

So, i did make few records in the /etc/hosts file, like

::1 server1.ru server2.ru

I did configure apache vertual server to be distinguished by thoase
names and the server itself to listen on IPv6 port 80.

In firewall were enabled those connections.

Finally, in FireFox i added exceptions to use not proxy for these
two names:

server1.ru, server2.ru

and typed in FireFox's address bar

server1.ru

FireFox told me that it couldn't make connection. In the firewalls logs
i saw that it tried to make IPv4 connection on 127.0.0.1 address,
though from where it took that address i do not know as

::1 server1.ru server2.ru

string is the only one in the /etc/hosts, that contain those names.

When i did configure all hat suite to use IPv4 it did work, but when
changed to IPv6 -- no.

So, any advice, idea will be appreciated.

Thank you for the advice.
I have in the version 2.13.1 of fontconfig-config package besides those
you have enlisted yet one more option, that could be translated into
english as "Fonts tunning" with availables options to choose from:
native, autohinting and without. I use OpenBox with most GTK-based
applications, do not know what TDE is, so i chose your advice on
GTK-based fonts configuration. But that did not help, sorry. May, the
reason is the mixed up fonts stuff in GTK3. So, if yet there are some
work around on GTK3 fonts, then any ideas are welcome.

A question on fonts in testing/unstable.

To me, fonts in X session are as beatiful as it is in stable -- not
thin, nor sharp. In case you have same beatiful fonts
(as in stable) in testing/unstable, would you share with me your options
that are shown by

dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig-config

like

first screen, option 1 (from the top),
second -- 2
etc.

?

I do cite here actual namings of the screens and options because it is
not in english in my case.

Or. may can give me another advice how i can return beatiful fonts in
testing/unstable.

Thank you for the direction!

The problems were two:

1. 390-th bond driver was not for my video card, and the number is
not its version (and looked for higher one). So, i exchanged 390-th
driver with 340-th, that is for my video card. Then

2. 340-th driver wasn'r loaded by x-server. The reason for me still
remains unknown, but imperiticaly i have found, that the presence of

nvidia-alternative
nvidia-legacy-check

packages on Devuan-3 (testing) installation prevents 340-th bond
driver from being loaded by the x-server, therefore, having removed
the packages, i've got working x-server under the bond driver again.

[DNG] X-server does not load compiled nvidia's bond driver on Devuan-3.

2019-09-22 Thread Андрей via Dng
Приветствую.


I can not install nvidia's bond driver on Devuan-3. The installation
goes well, module is compiled and put
into /lib/modules//... . But xserver keeps saying that
nvidia module is not found. What ca be wrong? I tried with both
available versions for the legacy drivers: 340 and 390. All the same.
Yet i know, that 340-th worked for me, before i tried to upgrade to
390. But since 390-th did not work i returned to 340-th, but 340-th
also does not work now. X-server says the same for both, and when i did
purge the packages, the uninstall proccess told me. that the compiled
drivers were in use. So, seems, it is x-server for some reason can not
find the drivers OR compiling proccess puts them now to a wrong place.

So, any ideas?

[DNG] Results od update from Devuan 2 to Devuan 3 (testing).

2019-09-20 Thread Андрей via Dng
Приветствую.


For short, for those, that would update because of using
new versions of software, and not to help testing, the update is not
worth, as problems come much more than visual improvements. Actualy, i
have noticed only one: quicker start of OpenBox.

Well. All works except:

. wine32:i386 is gone;

. GUI sessions still ocasionaly log out when from another console user
end is GUI/screen session;

. xhost does not work any more regarding running app.s under another
user in x-session of one user;

. qemu does not give it window any more, but only vnc network address
for access;

. on old hardware, nvidia bond driver, notable 3d-acceleration
regression;

. some packages remain unupgradable: nvidia's bond driver related
packages: installer, support, kernel-common, modprobe;
glx-alternative-* update-glx;

. PERL pipe/socket randomly misses input, making it necessary to repeat.

I think i have enlisted all the problems, that remain in my case on the
said upgrade. Hope this can be profitable to know to maintainers.
Personally, i would "upgrade" to Devuan 2, as i have upgraded namely in
order to get more modern software.

Thank you very much! I also thought the same, but asked first so that i

Surely, making /boot as the first partition does the trick even for the

[DNG] Help to install LiLo to a GPT HDD.

2019-08-22 Thread Андрей via Dng
Приветствую.


Please help to install LiLo to a GPT HDD.

Situation: I move installed OS from one drive (DOS partition scheme)
to another (3 TB, GPT partition scheme). The motherboard is old: BIOS,
Athlon 3000+. I have created single 2.7 TiB partition on which did
place the installed OS. Did mount to it /proc, /dev, /sys.
Changed /etc/lilo.conf with boot and root parameters according
to the new drieve IDs. ChRooted to it, typed lilo. LiLo gave only one
warning, that the drive is not the first one.

Result: BIOS tells me that the drive capasity is 801 GB instead of
3000. Well, for working as non bootable drive it worked alright.
But booting from the new drive gives me L 99 99 99 ... error. -- The
geometry problem, as i get it. And it halts booting.

Now. From Slackware site i read, that it is possible to install LiLo on
a GPT-HDD, but is not specified how, and as i remember, even, without
an additional "technical" partition.

So, how do i install LiLo so that it boots OS from the GPT-drive?

The .htaccess files are not used at all on both platforms. And that's
what's amazing that confiuration is the same! It is different web sites
and we can narrow the problem just to simple cgi dir. path: /исп/a,
that i can call directly from browser on both Apache configurations.
Actually, it is suficient to know that i'm correct in supposing that
there is no difference regarding cgi and 32/64-bit platforms. Now i
have to refer to apache forums, probably.

Well, i have opposite opinion. I tried "nouveau" and "nvidia" drivers
on "ASCII", in the "Torcs" and "OpenArena" games and saw difference in
game speed for the old hardware. Also, i see low speed for the old ATI
videocard, that i'm sure could far better in case i change from the
radeon driver to fglrx.

So, i suppose, though you're satisfied w/ the
speed of your games, i suppose, that have ye installed the bond
drivers, the speed/quality of picture would be far higher than you
enjoy now.

So, my question is fo now, Are there any plans on packageing the fglrx
driver for the old ATI cards.

You're absolutely right! -- I had used Debian for years still didn't
