RE: Las dudas con ADSL
Alvarez, Angel dijo: En España telefonica usa pppoe?? Aca( Argentina) te brindan el servicio ADSL pero por pptp Pues realmente es lo que estoy intentando averigüar y no consigo mucha información :-( Yo tampoco he conseguido averiguar nada. Lo del pppoe y el pptp lo lei en un Howto, que por cierto, me costo encontrar (creo que es el xdsl-howto), que cubre tantos aspectos, que al final no me quedo claro cuales son realmente de aplicacion en mi caso. Por ejemplo, el splitter, si es para poder hacer llamadas telefonicas, simultaneas a la conexion de red, en el caso de que no se utilice una linea para telefonia, ¿es necesario instalarlo?, y en caso negativo, ¿es necesario instalar el router?. Si puedo configurar mi Linux para enrutar (cuando me centre y averigue por donde tengo que empezar), ¿es realmente necesario este router?, ¿es solamente router o tiene otras funcionalidades que lo hacen imprescindible? En definitiva, creo que necesito : - Un interface de red, ademas del que ya tengo instalado - ¿Un router? - Configurar las tablas de rutas estaticas para que el segundo interface sea un gateway entre el router y mi red interna. Me imagino que el router tendra algun interface que a su vez haga de gateway entre la red de mi proveedor y los otros interfaces del router. Saludos
[off-topic] maquina sun no entra en las X
Buenas, primero disculpas y que esto no tiene que ver con debian, pero tengo un problema con una maquina sun y que no se por donde cogerlo. Me parece que se ha solucionado algo parecido en la lista pero con linux. El problema es que esta maquina ha estado bastante tiempo sin reiniciarse, y este fin de semana tuvimos un apagon y se reinicio, pues desde entonces, no deja acceder a las X. aparece el login grafico (el dtlogin) pero no hay manera de entrar. Cuando lo intento, parece que va a arrancar, me dice que hay un problema con el nombre de la maquina y me devuelve al login. Ademas me genera un core de unos 2 MB cada vez que intento entrar. si alguien se ha encontrado algo parecido, ayuda!! se puede acceder a una consola y la red esta activa. Gracias. Quimi
Re: Las dudas con ADSL
- Un interface de red, ademas del que ya tengo instalado - ¿Un router? Si utilizas un interfaz de red interna, ¿ A donde lo vas a conectar ?, pues eso al router. El router se comunica contigo por un lado y por otro interface con la red atm mediante un enlace punto a punto. - Configurar las tablas de rutas estaticas para que el segundo interface sea un gateway entre el router y mi red interna.

FWIW, Telefônica Brasil no lo hace; aqui te dan un IP fixo y el modem actua como un gateway. Cualquier autentificación es redundante, porque el uso está ligado a una línea de teléfono que tiene un número normal. Por eso, ellos saben quien eres; si alguien pincha tu línea desde fuera, va a dejar de funcionar, y reclamarás. Es poco probable que el pirata consiga configurar su Internet, porque no conoce los IPs. Por ejemplo, el splitter, si es para poder hacer llamadas telefonicas, simultaneas a la conexion de red, en el caso de que no se utilice una linea para telefonia, ¿es necesario instalarlo?, Pues no es necesário pero es recomendable. En realidad el splitter es un equalizador que reduce los ruídos en la línea para cada rango de frecuencias. En una instalación fuera de la capitál la Telefônica ahorró tanto que usó uno de estos condensadores que normalmente sirve contra interferencias (funcionaba mal, pero funcionaba, tanto la línea de voz como Internet; pero al final lo tenían que cambiar). El splitter es una buena cosa, yo no lo dejaría fuera. y en caso negativo, ¿es necesario instalar el router?. Si puedo configurar mi Linux para enrutar (cuando me centre y averigue por donde tengo que empezar), ¿es realmente necesario este router?, ¿es solamente router o tiene otras funcionalidades que lo hacen imprescindible? Sí, lo hacen imprescindible, porque hace ethernet sobre ATM. No es ethernet sobre ATM, es ADSL lo que hace. Es un modem `normalito', con o sin funciones adicionales. ATM esl el `backbone' cuando la conexión sale del modem ADSL remoto, por lo menos aqui, porque podrían tener cualquier otra cosa. Y si, este modem es inprescindible. Un router dentro del modem sólo es necesario si te dan mas de un IP, lo que no es muy probable. - Configurar las tablas de rutas estaticas para que el segundo interface sea un gateway entre el router y mi red interna. Me imagino que el router tendra algun interface que a su vez haga de gateway entre la red de mi proveedor y los otros interfaces del router. Pues, por lo menos aqui es así: El firewall recibe el IP que te han asignado y usa el IP del modem (también te lo dan ellos) como gateway. El modem implementa un bridge de IP sobre IP, usando internamente un espacio de IP's privados, así que la Telefónica puede entrar en la configuración de tu modem desde fuera. Pero para ti, esto es transparente. Al otro lado está la centralita que recibe el cable con un splitter para las llamadas de voz y otro modem ADSL que se rutea para el backbone ATM (o lo que ellos tengan ahi). El resto depende como configuras tu red local. Si usas un proxy para cada protocolo (puede que el squid sea suficiente, tal vez con dante), el resto de la red va a usar sólo IPs locales, teniendo la ruta por defecto al firewall (la segunda tarjeta). Si haces un masquerading, tendrás que poner el firewall como gateway en las otras máquinas.

nucleo 2.4.3 y modules.dep
Normalmente no me gusta compilar módulos para el núcleo, hago el núcleo a medida sin módulos, pero en este caso, por temas de espacio en una sparc he tenido que compilar un núcleo con módulos. El problema es que con los núcleos 2.2.x, al dar make modules_install, el sistema qcrea el fichero en /lib/modules/nucleo/modules.dep para que trabaje el modprobe, pero en este núcleo he visto que no crea este fichero. Existe algún truquillo para que lo haga. Esto lo he observado también en los nucleos 2.4.x compilados en PC. En ambos casos tengo instalado el paquete modutils. Saludos y gracias.

Actualización del kernel
Hola, una vez pasados los exámenes, me he puesto a actualizar Potato a testing... Gracias a la lista, no hubo ningún problema, ni en la migración a las XFree 4 (lo que más dificil me parecía) ni en nigún otro sentifo... Ahora lo que me gustaría hacer es actualizar el kernel de 2.2.18pre a 2.4.5, por probar... Usando dselect me he encontrado un kernel binario de esa imagen, pero al instalarlo me dice q: You are attempting to install an initrd kernel image (version 2.4.5-586tsc) This will not work unless you have configured your boot loader to use initrd. To get rid of this message, put `do_initrd = Yes' in /etc/kernel-img.conf. Do you want to stop now? [Y/n] y no se muy bien lo que me pide. Si me podeis explicar clarito lo q hay que hacer para compilar el kernel de una manera debian o para instalar esta imagen, os lo agradecería INFO: Maquina P166MMX, 128Mb, hda=8Gb, hda1=win9x, hda6=winnt, hda7=/ hdb=CDROM hdc=4Gb, backups hdd=CDRW eth0=3Com 905x pci eth1=Realtek de toda la vida, NE2000 pci audio=sb16 isa Video=RivaTNT32 pci Alguna vez, con kernels de la serie 2.2.x me dió problemas al instalarlo, corrompiendo el sistema de ficheros de ext2 ¿?

Re: Off-Topic : Linux and Microsoft
Olá, apesar desse assunto ser offtopic, é muito interessante: veja no site Newsforge, a matéria 90% Windows, 5% Mac, 5% Linux? Not true! http://www.newsforge.com/article.pl?sid=01/06/12/1846240 Eles explicam como esses números foram calculados: foi usado como critério o fato do S.O. vir ou não instalado de fábrica. Como muito poucas empresas pré-instalam GNU/Linux, essa conta saiu assim baixa. Mau negócio para o Gartner Group, que até aqui era considerado confiável e que, em uma pesquisa financiada, entre outros pela Microsoft, deu essa informação errônea. No slashdot, há a chamada Gartner Claims Less Linux Than IDC que compara estudos do Gartner, usando a metodologia (!) acima, com aqueles do IDC, com outra metodologia, em http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=01/06/12/207mode=thread Também há uma discussão sobre o tema, com observações nem sempre cordatas ou gentis. :) []s, Hilton --- Nitrogen [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Lista, Dêem uma olhada nesta notícia que achein o site na mandrake.

Abraços, Leonardo Custodio Debian Linux: Resistance is futile! e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Attach - No one's using Linux, claims Microsoft By Andrew Orlowski in San Francisco Posted: 13/06/2001 at 11:21 GMT Gartner Dataquest has pegged the proportion of Linux servers shipped in the United States at 8.6 per cent. Gartner analyst Jeffery Hewitt claims that this figure - which includes 'white box' shipments, but excludes server appliances such as Sun's Cobalt range - is dramatically lower than the 20 per cent plus cited by arch rivals IDC. Of that 8.6 per cent, eight per cent is attributed to Red Hat and 0.6 per cent to other distros. The survey is dated May 30, but was made public yesterday. We don't usually hear about analyst surveys from vendors in advance of publication. But yesterday a note dropped in from Microsoft's PR company, Waggener Edstrom. 8.6 per cent is... certainly in line with what we are hearing from our customers and partners, wrote a friendly Wagg-Ed flak. Now there's some dispute over what a 'shipment' actually involves, as NewsForge's Rob 'roblimo' Miller points out in this analysis. And he has a very good point: for example, Gartner pegs Linux shipments in the supercomputer space as 'zero' this year. In fact Linux is well established on commodity parallel clusters at many scientific sites. Many of these were assembled in-house, so a shipment clearly doesn't correlate to a working installation. However, Microsoft's pre-emptive strike may be tactical. Hewitt actually predicts that volume shipments of Linux - even using Gartner's contested definition of 'shipment' and 'server' - will mushroom in the next four years. Total worldwide Linux deployment will quadruple from 2.4 million to 9.1 million, predicts Gartner, with explosive growth in the supercomputer area: up from that dubious 'zero' this year to over 5000 by 2005. In the $25,000 to $100,000 range - the low-end company workhorse - Linux shipments will increase ninefold. In the sub-$5000 space, Linux will grow over six fold. So this may be a case of the Beast getting its retaliation in first. ® -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

mirroring just binary-i386 files
Is there a way to mirror just the Debian package files needed for a given architecture? That is, given the pool directories and all the symbolic links to them, is there any way to mirror just the section under /debian/dists/potato and just the files needed for binary-i386? I'm currently using mirror, but run into a series of problems: - If I don't flatten or suppress the symbolic links, it seems I'd have to mirror the whole pool in order to have the pool files to which the symbolic links under /debian/dists/potato refer. I don't have space for that. Thereore, I configured mirror to flatten symbolic links (download the linked file instead of creating a link locally). - I got a lot of duplicate .deb files because I've flattened the links from /debian/dists/potato/.../binary-i386 to /debian/dists/potato/.../binary-all. I don't really have the space for that either. Since I thought everything the binary-all directories was linked to from the binary-i386 directory, I mirrored just the binary-i386 directories (with links flattened). - Unfortunately, the Packages file refers to the binary-all directories. To solve that, I created a binary-all symbolic link to each binary-i386 directory. - Unfortunately, it turns out that not everything listed in binary-all is also listed in binary-i386 on the server. ** Is that intentional or an error? For example, ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/potato/main/binary-i386/doc/ does not list glibc-doc..., although that file is in ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/potato/main/binary-all/doc/ . Does rsync give better control over link expansion than mirror? (E.g., for any link under /debian/dists/potato to a file not under /debian/dists/potato, expand the link (as a file under /debian/dists/potato); but for links within the subtree rooted at /debian/dists/potato, preserve them.) Does some form of apt support permanently mirroring a distribution? (Permanently as opposed to whichever cache it is that apt asks if you want to purge?) (I want to maintain a local mirror so that when I want to install something, it's already downloaded and I can install it quickly.) Thanks, Daniel -- Daniel Barclay [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Hmm.

Re: cdcd sound level
Thomas, Sounds like you have volume settings mixed up. The cd channel has its very own setting then there is the Master setting. Both of these settings have control over the volume of the cdplayer. I generally max the cd then control it via the main - seems to work well. I don't however max the PCM volume (wav) cuz it tends to add distortion. I don't know what mixer you use, but pull down aumix (it's apt-get'able). hth. tatah On Thursday 14 June 2001 13:56, Thomas H.

Some mouse clicks don't work, some do
I am running woody, with gnome, X 4.0, and sawfish. sawfish (and gnome-sawfish) are leftovers from Ximian, but it is mostly a straight Debian system. The mouse is mostly working, but the following things don't work: left-click or middle click on the desktop. any click on the upper left icon in the frame around windows. Right click on desktop brings new/arrange icons/... menu. I can grab and move windows around, click on the window control buttons in the upper right of the window frame, select menu items, I'm not sure how long this has been going on; I think it's been awhile (at least a couple of weeks). All of the non working clicks used to work for me. (Clicking on the background got me an X program menu or a list of things like windows or programs I could select; clicking on the window control got me some sawfish commands. Or at least, that is what I thought I was seeing before.) Can anyone suggest where to look for the problem, or for a fix? Thanks.

glimpse install
Hi list I recently installed glimpse, and it asked me if it should index my manpage-directories and run this task as a cron-job. I answered no because I had work to do, and the searching, decrompressing, indexing... procedure would have annoyed me that time. Now I'd like to do run this index, but neither dpkg-reconfigure glimpse nor apt-get remove --purge and apt-get install it again asks me this question. Now, how can I start indexing, and the cron job without confusing apt, dpkg, and myself? thanks, joerg -- Did you know that if you play a Windows 2000 cd backwards, you will hear the voice of Satan?

unpredictable crashes, lock up, freezes, whatever
Dear all, I'm running mostly testing with some unstable under linux 2.2.19 (hand rolled, of course) on an IBM ThinkPad i1476 (Type 2611). Since a few weeks, my machine completely locks up at unpredictable moments. The screen is no longer updated, I can't switch to a virtual terminal, even the three finger salute doesn't do a thing. Pinging from another machine results in 100% lost packets but the PCMCIA network card keeps signalling traffic. Just about the only thing that keeps on going is CD audio. I regularly 'apt-get -t testing upgrade' and the problem hasn't gone away. I've tried other kernels, including the Debian vanilla ones, but to no avail. I've run memtest86 and found errors in one of my DIMMs but the problem remains even after lobotomy. That is, even when I only use the DIMM that is okay (memtest86, 20+ passes, tests 1-7) my machine randomly locks up. I've checked the logs but apart from occasional blocks of nulls just before a lock up, I haven't seen anything out of the ordinary. Note, those null blocks only appear before _some_ lock ups, not all. Because I haven't experienced any lock up when using the console, I'm wondering if my graphics card (probed as Neomagic NM2200 according to XFree86 log, NeoMagic MagicMedia 256AV according to hardware spec) has gone bad. Are there any tools a la memtest to test my graphics card? Before you suggest, I have already tried both Gnome (with several window managers) and KDE. It doesn't matter. The machine even locks up when running (x|k)screensaver during lunch :-( If you have other ideas as to what could be the matter, I'm open to suggestions.

I did it so answering 'yes' to the many requests of fixing the corrupted clusters. This is the reason why in the messed up /etc/motd (many thanks to Aquila who privately gave me the right hint!)

In short, yes linuxconf is in the stable distribution but you should edit those files by hand.

With tools like linux conf your stuck only being able to do what someone else thinks you want to do. run: #apt-cache search linuxconf it sould show you a few packages that pertain to linuxconf. Then you can run: #apt-cache show package-name and get all sorts of info about the package.

This is a really bad thing as instead of just arping for the next hop address the router will arp every time it needs to send a packet to any address on the network the route is for to try and determine the gateway to that address.

Video shutdown instead of xscreensaver
Please CC reply copies as I'm not a subscriber of this list. Hi, When I don't move the mouse or type for some minutes, xscreensaver runs. How can I change this? I'd like that my monitor turns off or enter in sleep mode instead of xscreensaver. Is there some How-To where I can find some hints? Thanks in advance, Pedro

Thanks Mike If you mean that you are recieving some emails from the Debian-User list that don't have subject lines, we all get a few of them, but that's because the sender fails to put in a subject line, a practice that is likely to get their email ignored rather than getting them the help they seek (a non-descriptive subject line, such as Help me is also likely to be ignored by many list members). /RANT And while I'm on the subject of list netiquette (for anyone reading over your shoulder), I believe it's proper to put your reply at the bottom of the previous message instead of at the top, so that as the thread grows, it's easy to jump in in the middle and be able to figure out what's been said when. /End of RANT If you're getting a lot of emails without subject lines (say, 10% or more of the list traffic), something's wrong on your end.

Re: fetchmail question
Hi Alex, I've no solution for your problem but I remember that fetchmailconf provides an option to leave messages on server (on a per account basis). Perahps you sdhould try to generate a pseudo config with it just to see what you can add. I use also two email addresses but I really use only one because I've not yet manage to automatically select the sender ID. I mean, I would like with one mail reader (balsa, mutt, ...) to send a mail to a mailing list with my second address but to a friend with my first address. I think about rules (similar to procmail's one) to said send mail to this address with this sender mail address, ... My purpose is differant than yours, I use somtimes a IMP to remotely consult my box but the mailing list traffic make this difficult. So I use two distincts addresses, the primary one is easily consultable. I imagine this is possible with sendmail but the sendmail configuration is really difficult. So I use exim but I believe this kind of config is not possible with it.

Hi, I haven't been following this closely, so my appologies if this isn't relevent.

non-modular kernel, multi E/N card recognition
Hello: I have encountered a problem with the recognition of 2 Ethernet cards when using a non-modular kernel. The specifics are as follows: kernel 2.4.2 (with console = tty and lance ethernet enabled) 2 Lance (ISA) E/N cards jumpered to 0x300 and 0x320 respectively system is '386, 8 MB, no graphics, keyboard or mouse: uses vt101 as a console I tried the following append statements in the lilo.conf file, kernel section, but only the card at 0x300 is identified: append = io=0x300,0x320 console=ttyS0,4800E7 append = io=0x300 io=0x320 console=ttyS0,4800E7 append = io=0x320 io=0x300 console=ttyS0,4800E7 append = io=0x300,0x320 (with append = console=ttyS0,4800E7 in the global section) Note that a modular kernel 2.2.13, with the line options lance io=0x300,0x320 in the /etc/modules.conf file DOES recognise both cards at boot time. The newer kernel is needed (I believe) because I want the '386 as a firewall between my LAN and the ADSL modem to the world. I cannot get dhcpcd that came with the earlier Debian release (currently on the '386) to make a connection, so want dhcp-client, plus iptables for packet filtering. If you have any experience with a similar environment, or have any insight into solving my problem at all, I would very much like to hear from you. Regards from frustrated in Calgary, Dean Provins

kernel 2.4 and cs4232 [semi-urgent]
Hi, Sound, my personal blind spot... When I upgraded to kernel 2.4.x some time ago I lost sound, and haven't been able to get it back on two out of three machines. We have a bunch of demos monday and it would be nice to put something flashy on the kiosk system (which is one of the sound less ones). This used to work, with 2.2.18 and still does on one 2.4.2 system: modprobe cs4232 io=0x534 irq=5 dma=1 dma2=0 now I get init_module: No such device, all systems running unstable. sndconfig doesn't seem to deal with 2.4 kernels (complains about sound_core missing, I wonder if I can alias that away...)
