Framebuffer (y II): problemas svgalib y X.
Hola, ya conseguí activar el fb. GRACIAS a todos los que me han ayudado. Tenía bien configurado el kernel, solo tenía que pasarle al kernel el modo vesa adecuado durante el arranque. Con la línea `vga=0x310' en el LILO ya puedo ver el pingüino, ;-) Pero, de momento, ha sido peor el remedio que la enfermedad: - NO funcionan los programas para svgalib, se lanzan y no se ve nada, solo fondo negro y algunas manchas horizontales. - NO puedo arrancar el servidor fb para Xwindow. Pongo `Xvfb' en `/etc/X11/Xserver', y estas líneas en el XF86Config (del artículo sobre fb de Juan Antonio Martínez en Linux Actual nº 8): # Frame Buffer Server Section Screen Driver FBDev Device S3 Trio 3D/2X Monitor Sony CPD-1420E Subsection Display Modes default EndSubsection EndSection pero cuando lanzo con `startx' no se ve nada, aunque se lancen los programas. Sustituyendo por `Driver Xvfb' o `Driver vesafb' tampoco funciona. Creo que en la documentación del kernel decía algo sobre svgalib, pero es que parece que `dpkg' no deja extraer archivos sueltos de un paquete, y ahora el kernel descomprimido no me cabe en ningún sitio. ¿ A alguien le funciona svgalib con el fb ? ¿ Alguien me puede pasar las líneas del `XF86Config' ?

Re: Ratón.
Puedes comprobar si el puerto COM1 serie o bien el que maneja el ratón, en el SETUP de tu PC, está en correspondencia con el dispositivo de ratón /dev/ttyS0 u otro, y ponerlos de acuerdo. Este ha sido el problema que yo tuve con mi ratón, en un caso exactamente igual, y la solución que le dí. Hasta otra.-Saludos de:Fernández.-Granada.

Consultas sobre dosemu y xclipboar
Hola a todos: Llevo bastante tiempo intentando hacer funcionar a dosemu y siempre me encuentro con el mismo problema: Tengo montado un disco de dos que lo veo perfectamente en linux, pero cuando le quiero asignar un volumen en el dos con el comando lredir e: \linux\fs\subdirectorio siempre me contesta con algún error del tipo 40, 3c, etc. Mi pregunta es ¿ Como puedo acceder a un subdirectorio montado en linux (de un disco de dos) para verlo desde dosemu como un volumen y poder correr programas dos?. He leído los howto y da la impresión que el comando lredir es la solución, pero no consigo que me funcione. ¿Existe algún otro procedimiento?. Otra duda que tengo es la siguiente: ¿Desde un xterminal como puedo cortar texto y enviarlo al xclipboard? ¿y desde una aplicación X como puedo hacer lo mismo?. Tengo un ratón de dos botones y tengo activada la opción de emular tres botones. Me han contado que si seleccionando con el botón izquierdo y luego pulsando el derecho se copia lo seleccionado, para más adelante colocarte donde quieras y pulsar los dos botones al mismo tiempo para dejar el texto donde quieras, pero no ocnsigo que me funcione. Gracias por todo.

Yo creo que si puedes montar en un directorio que tiene archivos, ni
siquiera los pierdes, tan solo que dejan de aparecerte en el
directorio, y si desmontas la particion vuelven a estar alli.
Corrigame alguien si me equivoco.
Pues creo que no:
# touch /tmp/test
# mount -t msdos /dev/fd0 /tmp
mount: /dev/fd0 already mounted or /tmp busy
El Floppy no está montado así que el error es que el /tmp está
ocupado.
Se puede montar un disco en cualquier directorio aunque este
contenga archivos, eso si, los archivos de ese directorio
dejan de verse.
El problema puede venir si algun proceso tiene abierto un archivo
de ese directorio, en ese caso no te dejara montarlo.
(que es lo que probablemente pasa con el /tmp )

Se puede ejecutar, también, el comando gpmconfig para ver y configurar el ratón, fuera del X, pero no funcionará si físicamente no está bien acoplado, como te he comentado antes.

Re:Port?til para Debian
El tema va un poco más allá... no es que cobren por cpu vendida más que por copia (que por supuesto lo que pagas por un equipo con Windows que YA INCLUYE EL PRECIO DE LA COPIA INSTALADA), sino que así y si leeis bien la licencia Microsoft no se responsabiliza de las cagadas que su SO pueda producir, tampoco da soporte a estas cagadas y el inmediato responsable es el fabricante de la máquina con la que se vende el winblows.. con una estrategia tal.. es como para fiarse de usar Winblows...

X Window
Hola a todos. Ayer estaba yo tan feliz porque ya acabé de instalar todo que por un momento se me olvidó mi gafe con los ordenadores (además de mi tremenda ignorancia sobre Linux). Resulta que ahora al arrancar Linux me sale una especie de pantalla de bienvenida muy chula con muchos colorines en la que me pide el login y el password y entro como 'root' y me lleva directamente a X Window. ¡Que bien!, ¡que bonito!, pensé yo. Y, aunque todavía soy bastante inexperto con las X, más o menos pude hacer cosas. El problema me vino al salir. Lo hice con la opción del menú y tb con ctrl-alt-backspace y me vuelve a la pantalla de presentación (donde el login y el root) y de ahí ya no sé como salir. ¡No funciona el ctrl-alt-supr! Supongo que le habrá pasado a alguien lo mismo. ¡HELP!
Mount y umount.
Hola, saludos a todos. ¿Sabeis si hay alguna forma de no tener que montar y desmontar el cdrom y el floppy cada vez que se quiera acceder a ellos, es decir, que se haga de una forma automática o algo así? Supongo que no, pero por si acaso, como yo no tengo ni idea... Gracias.

Hola!! Pues sí, evidentememnte este error me daba porque estaba intentando usar un directorio ocupado por otro proceso. Si que se pueden montar unidades en un directorio que contenga ficheros, estos ficheros no se perderán, aunque mientras la unidad esté montada no se podrán acceder a los ficheros antiguos.

WML
Hola, estoy jugando un poco con el html, y hace poco que dí con el paquete WML. El caso es que no tengo nada clara su función. ¿Qué relación tiene con HTML? ¿Se puede prescindir de tener que usar un editor para escribir código html, o hay que hacer eso y luego wml sirve para algo más? Varias páginas conocidas (www.debian.org, www.hispalinux.org, etc.) están diseñadas con WML, y el resultado me parece bastante bueno y sobre todo muy limpio. ¿Podría alguien explicarme como se relaciona todo, o darme la dirección de una lista sobre WML?

Si quiere entrar directamente en el modo texto, sin que le aparezca el display manager al arrancar, deberá desinstalar el paquete xdm: dpkg --purge xdm De todas formas ctrl-alt-supr no es la mejor forma de apagar linux. Lo mejor es que hagas su como root y luego tecles el comando halt o reboot Una pregunta para Jose Luis: si estas hablando del ctrl-alt-delete (no estoy seguro de que es supr), porque te parece que es menos seguro que un halt? en mi caso por ejemplo tengo una linea en el /etc/inittab que dice: ca:12345:ctrlaltdel:/sbin/shutdown -t1 -a -h now y siempre pense que esto quiere decir que alt-ctrl-delete es perfectamente equivalente a hacer su seguido de shutdown, con la diferencia que es mucho mas rapido y facil.

El funcionamiento es muy sencillo, le especificas un tiempo de retardo, que es el tiempo que esperará a no tener actividad para desmontar esa partición, y a partir de ahí, según lo que hayas configurado en /etc/auto.amnt bastará con cambiar al directorio /amnt/cdrom y allí tendrás montado el cdrom, a /amnt/floppy, y allí estará el Floppy, a /amnt/zip y allí la unidad zip... en cuanto salgas del subdirectorio, y se alcance el tiempo de inactividad que le hayas especificado, el sistema de ficheros de desmontará y podrás extraer el disco de la unidad.

Nunca los he usado, pero los paquetes autofs o amd parece que pueden ser tu solución: montan automáticamente una unidad cuando se hace referencia a ella, y la desmontan después de un periodo en que no sean usadas (ese periodo tendria que ser menor que el tiempo que te demores en cambiar el disco). Para usarlos tienes que compilar el kernel con la opción automount. Jaime
SLINK + NAMED
Hola a todos amigos,
Pretendo configurar un dominio en mi red interna y luego otros dos para
hacer una web corporativa departamental.
Mi problema es que el named me da problemas y si pingeo a dominio.com,
www.dominio.com,,, y a dominio1.com y www.dominio2.com pero el nslookup no
me encuentra los dominios ni la reversa.
Y luego trato de alojarlos como multihosting en apache y ni caso. Uso IP
aliases y asigno al servicio www la 192.168.2.30 y al dominio como tal
192.168.2.15.Mi primer tema es que por favor si alguien puede please, que me
eche un cable donde estoy metiendo la pata y después, si alguien ve alguna
forma más fácil o más eficiente que me informe, se lo agradeceré mucho.
Muchas gracias por su tiempo.
Un saludo.

KDE y Slink (lo hise)
Hola a todos: Por si le sirve a alguien, os cuento cómo he instalado el KDE en slink, a raíz de algunas respuestas que tuve en esta lista, y después de haber probado varias cosas. De entrada, los paquetes buenos para slink no están en los mirrors oficiales de KDE, sino en ftp://tdyc.com/pub/kde/debian/dists/slink/kde . Los paquetes de la distribución están divididos en varios subdirectorios. En el subdirectorio libs encontraréis además las qt 1.44. También hay una distribución para potato. En los mirrors de KDE sólo encontraréis paquetes para hamm y potato, y faltan algunos. Hay que instalar otros dos paquetes de los que depende kdebase, rman, que tendréis que bajaros de algún mirror de non-free, y mesag3, que es parte de slink. Una vez instalado todo, hay que hacer un truquillo para que funcione la ayuda, y es un softlink al directorio de los archivos de ayuda en el idioma que elijamos por defecto. O sea, suponiendo que sea el inglés: cd /usr/doc/kde/HTML ln -s en default (Por motivos que desconozco, esto no es necesario en la distribución para potato). Y hecho esto, todo funciona más o menos como se espera (aunque hay algún problemilla, no muy importante). Y si a alguno le interesa la cosa mucho mucho, se puede suscribir a kde-debian poniendo subscribe kde-debian en el cuerpo de un mensaje a [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fin. Espero que le sea útil a alguien, y perdón por la turra a todos a los que el KDE les trae al fresco (que sois unos cuantos :-) Un saludote, ___ Roberto Ripio [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Just my opinion
All this reminds me of my printer Ethernet card woes during the weekend. I decided that I was tired of using Linux with very limited multimedia capabilities. It seemed to reinforce the notion my Windows friends have that Linus is for servers not workstations. I bought a SoundBlaster PCI128 card and to get that to work I had to upgrade from 2.0.36 which was working perfectly for months to 2.2.10. I downloaded the sources and compiled the kernel. I rebooted and everything seemed to work fine, but I noticed that eth0 kept on complaining. After connecting my laptop to the hub I realized that the Ethernet card in the Linux system was unhappy. Not long afterwards I saw that I couldn't print either. The Ethernet card problem was easily solved. A reboot to Windows showed that Windows had somehow told it to use the wrong I/O address, even though PnP is turned off. The printer was more tricky. It worked fine under Windows. After messing around with cables documentation and stuff I decided to strace the daemon. I saw it try to talk to lp1 instead of lp0. I looked at /etc/printcap and realized that I had lp1 in there. I read some more and saw that the lp implementation has been changed quite a bit from the 2.0 to 2.2. If I had lp0 in /etc/printcap none of this would have happened. What's my point - getting a Linux system to work perfectly requires patience and a lot of RTFM. This is unlike Windows where some (but not all) things will work with minimal user interaction. But the time I have spent making Linux work always pays off as it continues working with no problems. Till I touch it again ... Now I am going home to figure out why IP forwarding has stopped working with 2.2. jmb The whole point is that things can work just fine. It does take a little patience and there's lots to learn. When it comes to documentation there is alot available and not just online. The Debian Users Guide is a must and there are many other books available too. Also, the Debain user help is great. People from this list have spent much time helping me out with little snags here and there. When you have troubles just ask. That is what this list is for. My printer works fine. My modem works fine. The documentation has always been right on and the installation is a breeze. Doug-- Run out and buy a Lotto ticket. Lady luck has the hots for you! :-) --- Max
PGP5, mutt, and signed messages
Greetings everyone. After seeing quite a few postings about Mutt and PGP in the past few days, I decided I'd finally get around to setting it up myself. I've got it working fine with GnuPG and PGP2, but I have a question about PGP5... I don't know if this is really specific to Mutt, though. I sent a test message to myself, and signed it with PGP5. When I receive the message, Mutt checks the signature and reports that it's 'good'.

Is that the way PGP5 is supposed to work (since the signature is attached to the message using MIME, rather than being part of it (such as the older method of PGP signing messages used). That's the only thing I can think of, I just thought I'd check and see what experiences others have had. One other thing, I saw references to 'language.txt' and 'language50.txt' (for PGP2 and PGP5, respectively) in the Mutt docs. However, it appears that the Debian package doesn't come with these files. Would this be considered a bug, and if so, should I file a report? Or is there a Debian policy which doesn't include such things? Thanks. -- Matthew Gregan [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: ethernet card probs
First I would believe you need to provide more information to get serious help, unless someone else happend to have this exact problem... First, you either got the latest 3c59X.c (compiled it how 3com or HOWTO's tell you) then compile it so it becomes 3c59X.o and put it in the /lib/modules/(whatever your kernel version is)/net. Then in /etc/modules file, add the line 3c59X and then reboot. That is probably the most effecient way (for modules), rather than using the netconfig program. If 3com supports linux for that card, I'd go to their site and get the latest 3c59X driver for linux.

Re: where do i find crypt ?
Isn't that [crypt(3)] in libc6, folks?
WRT the message from yesterday, and this, and others:
crypt lives, for most applications, in /lib/libcrypt.*.
Some programs, like crack, provide their own, faster, version.
You specify crypt to gcc as follows:
Function prototype for C:
char *crypt(const char *key, const char *salt);
Command line
gcc -o file.o file.c -lcrypt
You specify it to g++ as follows:
Function declaration for C++:
extern C { char *crypt(const char *key, const char *salt); }
Command line
g++ -o file.o file.cc -lcrypt
Hope this clears up the confusion.

install can't read from cd
Hi there, Can anybody help with the following, I'd like to be able to try debian... Disappointed with rh6 I thought I'd give debian a go. I ran the cd through dos (d:\install\boot) and successfully mounted the root directory, init swap. When it came to selecting media to install from I chose cd-rom, /dev/hdf but a message returned saying that the mount was unsuccessful. 486 CD is an ATAPI in IDE drive 16 M ram IDE cache controller Note that rh 5.2 doesn't ask for any info regarding the cd, just loads from it, so it's not a problem with the cd I feel. Would someone be able to point me in the right direction, either with some documentation or some help? Thanks. regards, shane.

sound - debian performs well but one prob, no sndstat
Hi guys, I have just compiled a 2.2.10 kernel and run isapnp under debian slink and it has all worked perfectly unlike my previous attempts under other dists. The cards initialise and the modules will load manually (have to learn how to have that happen auto). However, For some reason /dev/sndstat doesn't exist on my system whereas the dsp and audio devices do. Is this due to me not having installed the slink default kernel sources or something else? I tried to find the shell script in the /usr/src/linux/Documentation/sound directory and a readme file there mentions the script at the end of the file but it isn't there? What is the best way to create the file if I can't find the kernel script?

These sites are probably the root sites. If you look at the log, you will see a network unreachable line in it, after you connect to sendmail. Try removing the root servers hint from it. Or if it does not help, then set up /etc/hosts on the sendmail site. It might help.

Re: Bind (fwd)
I wrote previously Try removing the root servers hint from it. Or if it does not help, then set up /etc/hosts on the sendmail site. It might help. However if this does help, then do consider that if you don't use forwarders, and don't use root servers then your machine is on its own, so it will know only the domains in its OWN dns server. So either use forwarders (preferable), or the root servers. Or use the method at the end of the DNS-howto of using a fake (empty) and a valid hint file switched by the ip-up and ip-down scripts.

achieving secure web services for the masses
Hello everyone! I would greatly like to hear as much feedback as possible about a project that I am proposing will be licensed under the GPL. It is a project that will bring about web mail that handles encryption and decryption. The web based email will live on an https server. This is the core of what I have envisioned. There are some other goals (10 in all), that I have discussed further in a proposal located at the following url: http://www.ompages.com/secureweb.txt I am not a programmer. Some of you may have seen me post around here before. I have thought this project up because my legal and technical research has led me to believe that this project is painfully needed. And it must begin now. I am hoping some people will see the merits and technical feasibility of this project. In my thinking, if we do not take charge of our opportunity to make internet communications secure for the masses, we will all suffer a great deal. Please consider what I have written there, and give me whatever feedback you think is necessary to aid me in hashing out methods of bringing my ten goals to fruition. Thank you all. Please note, that if you have trouble connecting it is because my domain lives on a dial-up connection and tzo.com provides me with dns. Sometimes my isp cuts off my ppp connection. Then I have to re-execute the sign-on script to get back up. This usually happens between midnight US/Pacific and 5am. So if it's down, do whatever you were doing and check back in a few hours and I will invariably have signed back on. Thanks everyone again...

Re: Why is Windows faster ?
I need to chime in on this. I, with my untrained eye, can't tell the difference in video performance b/w my Linux box at home and my Win95 box at work. However, when my Win95 box which has 64 MB RAM starts to swap under load, which it inevitably does, everything slows down, including the popups, dialogs, menu pull downs, etc. The video performance becomes irritatingly slow. Plus, the swapping doesn't stop after I close the programs that were causing the swapping. Yes, X is somewhat inefficient. Yes, X is somewhat clunky. But, the underlying OS is a hell of a lot more efficient than Windows. And to my subjective eyes, that makes X's video performance better than Windows' performance.

My setup only works because I could decide what router I had on either end. If you are forced to use PPP ou HDLC it won't work. Whit my setup, instead of PPP or HDLC we are using Ethernet frames over the leased line.

Re: Debian GNU/Linux 2.1 for x86 Installation Problem
You have a very in depth message, which is good. Your problem is simple. The rec1400.bin and other files are disk images. You have to extract them to a floppy disk using rawrite or rawrite2. You'll just have to install with those floppies because all disks but the rescue disk are in ext2 format, and windows can't read that to copy it to your partition. The disk installation doesn't take too long.

lp stopped working--connection refused
Hi! I have a debian box running as a samba printer server. I finally got round to properly configure the last win 95 machine last night, and then... problems stroke... To start with, submitting jobs to the server would put a couple of files in the spool directory (of dfA/hfA pattern), but these wouldn't be printed. Lpd was running, so it looked as if lpd couldn't see the files in the spool directory. Strange... Today, I started getting ERRHRD=39. The files weren't even copied to the server. After some tinkering about, it seems as if the samba server is not displaying the printer as a service. So, from the server, i try to lpr something, and to my surprise, find out that connection to 'localhost' failed - connection refused. job 'cfA...' transfer to [EMAIL PROTECTED] failed So the spooler is doing its bit, it's just when it sends the job to the printer that I get an error.

Previous versions of libc and glibc allowed this. It looks like the bug has been fixed in the latest package - there is a patch in bug report #38272.

The same disk works perfectely on my other system with no SCSI. It's a known problem I believe. Is there another way to solve this?? You don't need to boot with the rescue disk to do an upgrade - in fact, this is the Wrong Thing. All you need to do is to point apt or dselect at some slink media, update the list of packages and then tell it to install the new packages. Everything else should work fine. There are some instructions on exactly what to do somewhere in the CDs (probably also on the FTP site) but that's the basic idea. -- Mark Brown mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] (Trying to avoid grumpiness) http://www.tardis.ed.ac.uk/~broonie/ EUFShttp://www.eusa.ed.ac.uk/societies/filmsoc/
Re: automagic ftp sessions?
As usual, there is more than one way to do things in Unix/Linux... Have you looked at cron? (man cron) crontab -l lists any current cron job schedules and crontab -e allows you to edit the crontab (cron table). Basically, you would write a script to do the ftp operation, mark the script as executable using chmod, and then make a crontab entry to schedule execution of the script when and as often as you desire.

I've been reading a Unix book which says that the redirector is usful for this, but no details or example are given. I've also experimented with the macro function within ftp, but have been unable to set up macros which are available the next time I run ftp. Seems they last only for one session. Anyone care to shed some light? TIA,
