nvidia, flash, fullscreen

2012-07-02 Thread Jean-Christophe Dubacq
Depuis quelques jours (je n'utilise pas super souvent cette
fonctionnalité, donc je suis bien mal pour pouvoir la dater), je n'ai
plus de plein écran quand je regarde une vidéo sur youtube ou vimeo.
J'utilise des versions à jour de chrome, de flash (même si je crois que
chrome embarque son propre flash), et des drivers nvidia.

Est-ce que je suis le seul ?

Mise à jour cassée en SID

2012-07-02 Thread Pascal Ognibene
Bonjour,

Depuis vendredi, je ne peux plus faire de mises à jour de ma debian ni
installert de paquets.
Je bloque sur l'erreur:

E: Internal Error, No file name for libtinfo5

J'ai eu beau googler et essayé toutes les combinaisons de apt-get et
aptitude, rien n'y fait.
Le contenu de mon /etc/apt/source.list:

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

#depot marillat
deb http://www.deb-multimedia.org sid main non-free

Quelqu'un a t-il une solution à ce problème oh combien épineux?

Merci à tous!

Pascal

Donc ça serait probablement un problème de la version de chrome. Pas de
problème, je me sers rarement du flash plein écran, et quelqu'un finira
par le réparer...

Salut,
Je suis en Sid AMD64 sans pb.
Une idée sans garantie,
Faire un dpkg -l|grep libtinfo
Dans mon cas :
ii  libtinfo5:amd64   5.9-10  
amd64shared low-level terminfo library for terminal handling

Si tu as celà :
essaye de télécharger le libtinfo5.deb et de le réinstaller
par un dpkg -i.
Peut t'être que tu ne peux rien faire de ce que je te le suggères, Là je ne 
sais pas t'aider.
A d'autre de prendre le relai.

[HS]Problème de multicast curieux.

2012-07-02 Thread Francois Boisson
Bonjour,

Pour des besoins de système autoconfigurable, j'ai fait un paquet compsé de
deux programmes:
* coucou -a IP -p N message
diffuse en continue et en multicast sur l'adresse IP et le port N le message
message, par exemple
coucou -a 225.0.0.37 -p 2012 10.0.1.92
envoie en continue l'adresse 10.0.1.92 sur l'adresse multicast 225.0.0.37
(2012), ce qui est confirmé par tcpdump.

* ecoute -a 225.0.0.37 -p 2012
fait l'opération inverse en écoutant sur cette adresse. Exemple

$ ecoute -a 225.0.0.37 -p 2012
10.0.1.92
$ 

Bon. Le problèe est le suivant, le réseau sur lequel je travaille est un
réseau 10.0.0.0/8 (ainsi le serveur a comme adresse 
eth0  Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:01:6c:56:9c:33  
  inet adr:10.0.1.92  Bcast:10.255.255.255  Masque:255.0.0.0

mais du fait d'utilisateurs négligents, certaines IP attribuées par le DHCP
sont mis également en dur sur des machines (imprimantes par exemple). Bref,
sur mes machines qui s'autoconfigurent (pour se mettre sur un VPN, mais c'est
un autre pbm), j'ai fait un script qui en cas de coupure réseau, leur donne
une IP statique (10.210.0.???N sur le même réseau). Depuis je n'ai plus aucun
souci de connexion (la plage choisie est vide), mais ce que je comprends pas
c'est que
$ ecoute -a 225.0.0.37 -p 2012
ne renvoit strictement rien sur une machine lorsque l'IP a été forcée.
En clair, avec l'IP attribuée par le DHCP,  ecoute -a 225.0.0.37 -p 2012
renvoit bien 10.0.1.92, dès que l'IP est mise à 10.210.0.56 (mettons), toutes
les connexions réseaux se passent très bien, le VPN fonctionne, etc MAIS 
$ ecoute -a 225.0.0.37 -p 2012
ne renvoit plus rien. Un tcpdump montre les lignes
17:51:41.912675 IP 10.0.1.92.50934  225.0.0.37.2012: UDP, length 9
mais le programme ne les capture plus. 
En fait ecoute fonctionne à tous les coups sur des machines ayant des IPs
10.0.1.??, sur la plupart des machines ayant des IPs donnés par DHCP en
10.0.0.?? et sur aucune des machines sur 10.210.0.???. Ce phénomène est
réversible, forcer une IP en 10.0.1.??  refait marcher le programme ecoute. 
Je ne comprends pas la différence de comportement,

Si quelqu'un a une explication, je suis preneur.


François Boisson

PS: Ces programmes se trouvent dans le paquet coucou dont les sources sont sur

deb-src http://boisson.homeip.net/sources/ ./
deb http://boisson.homeip.net/debian/ squeeze divers

SoulseekQt dans debian squeeze

2012-07-02 Thread Charles VIROT
Bonjour à tous,

Je suis sous squeeze et j'utilise le réseau p2p soulseek avec Nicotine.
Mais depuis quelque temps je n'ai presque plus de résultats dans mes
recherches car ce client ne peux pas communiquer avec le nouveau client
en développement SoulseekQt, sur lequel tout le monde migre. J'aimerais
donc installer ce client mais malheureusement, il utilise une version de
Qt4 trop récente (http://www.slsknet.org/news/node/76). j'obtiens cet
erreur au lancement:

$ ./SoulseekQt-6-4-2012
./SoulseekQt-6-4-2012: symbol lookup error: ./SoulseekQt-6-4-2012:
undefined symbol: _ZN9QListData11detach_growEPii

Sur le forum de SoulseekQt, il conseille d'installer Qt4 depuis
l'installer en ligne mais cela ne m'enchante guère, je préférerais une
version de debian.J'essaye d'installer Qt4 à partir de Testing:

$ ldd SoulseekQt-6-4-2012
   linux-gate.so.1 =  (0xb7733000)
   libQtGui.so.4 = /usr/lib/libQtGui.so.4 (0xb6c75000)
   libQtNetwork.so.4 = /usr/lib/libQtNetwork.so.4 (0xb6b49000)
   libQtCore.so.4 = /usr/lib/libQtCore.so.4 (0xb68c4000)
...

Les paquets suivants contiennent des dépendances non satisfaites :

Si je continue, apt me propose d'installer une très grande liste de

E: La dépendance Build-Depends vis-à-vis de qt4-x11 ne peut être
satisfaite car aucune version du paquet debhelper ne peut satisfaire à
la version requise

Et là je suis coincé. il y a-t-il un moyen d'installer une version de
Qt4 plus récente sous squeeze ? J'aimerais rester sous stable car j'aime
bien sa tranquillité.

Merci de vos réponses.

Ese paquete aún no está en Wheezy por problemas de migración:

Prueba instalarlo desde sid o squeeze. No es tan trivial como puede

Ese paquete aún no está en Wheezy por problemas de migración:

Prueba instalarlo desde sid o squeeze. No es tan trivial como puede
aparecer a primera vista. Lee algo sobre APT pinning y la página de
manual de apt_preferences.


Buf, pues wheezy ya está congelada... ¿podrán incluir compiz antes de que

probablemente lo encuentre en algunas de las respuestas; que veo que son
MUCHAS, mas les vale que sea una flamewar porque cuando vi un hilo tan
largo fui a hacer pochoclo (pipoca, cocaleca, palomitas de maiz,

 Estimados:
 
 Esto es MUY fuera de tópico, pero no se me ocurre realmente a quién 
 preguntarles, y que me contesten con CONOCIMIENTOS en vez de cháchara 
 inútil.

 (...)
 Donde trabajo, hay una aplicación que tiene más de 20 años, la cual fue 
 programada originalmente en entorno MS-DOS para Clipper Summer '87, y 
 luego migrada a Clipper 5.3., pero manteniendo el pecado de origen de no 
 funcionar bajo entorno de red. Me explico: Summer tenía casi nulas 
 opciones de bloqueos dinámicos de registro y/o archivos para accesos 
 simultáneos, y la aplicación nació como monousuario.
 Fue tan buena, que incluso hoy, sigue funcionando.
 El tema es que están migrando los equipos de WinXP a Win7, y ya no hay 
 emulación que lo soporte, amén que es MANDATORIO pasarla a un sistema 
 multiusuario.
¿ni siquiera dosbox?, mirá que a mi me ayudó con cosas realmente
antiguas (lo mas antiguo que recuerdo fue el jueguito ese del gato, que
winxp no abre nativamente pero si con dosbox)

 (...)

 Vamos a las capacidades de programador, o sea, yo: he hecho MUCHO en 
 Clipper, bastante en Oracle, y bastante en Fox-pro, por lo que las bases 
 de datos relacionales no me implican problema, ni adaptarme a la 
 programación orientada a objetos, a pesar que lo que más he hecho ha 
 sido con programación lineal.
 Tengan en cuenta a esta altura de mi vida, no tengo ganas de aprender 3 
 o 4 lenguajes, para poder decidir por uno, y por eso pido vuestra ayuda, 
 para tratar de dar al primer tiro con un lenguaje que:
 * Maneje pequeñas bases de datos.
 * Tenga capacidad multiusuario.
 * Tenga una curva de aprendizaje más o menos corta.
 * En lo posible, sea multiplataforma (tener en cuenta que mi 
 organización, excepto yo, son todos windows-dependientes).
 Por lo que, al final, va la pregunta que justifica este hilo:
 ¿Qué recomiendan?
 
python+algún sql 


 PD: Por favor, que no se transforme en una batalla cultural.

  Decisiones tomadas hasta el momento:
  Sistema operativo: Win7_x64 (desgraciadamente, no tengo elección, sólo
  puedo influir en la versión para 64 bits).
  Apache como servidor web.
  MySQL como servidor DB.
  Ya estoy montando una máquina virtual con esto para hacer de servidor
  durante el período de programación y prueba.
 
  Decisión que debo tomar pronto:
  En qué programar las paginas.
  Hasta ahora, por una cuestión de simplicidad, me está gustando Python.
  Encontré una linda librería llamada MySQLdb para Python que es 100%
  ISO SQL (http://mysql-python.sourceforge.net/MySQLdb.html).
 
  JAP
 
  Revisa la licencia de MySQL que no es enteramente libre, lo puedes usar
  libre si das tu código fuente, caso contrario no. Tiene licencia dual.
 
 
  Enteramente libres son: PostgreSQL y Firebird
 
  Saludos Reiterados

 Lo someto a votación, porque por lo que veo son igualmente de potentes, 
 corren multipaltaforma y en entorno de 64 bits. Ambos soportan ANS/ISO 
 SQL, y etcéteras varios.
 
 ¿MySQL o PostgreSQL?
 Me da exactamente lo mismo, dado que tengo que empezar por el principio.
 
en su momento mysql era mas fácil de instalar en win que postgresql
(punto para mysql). Ni idea como estará la cosa ahora. 
Lo que decían de las licencias y todo eso... mysql fue comprado por sun,
que a su vez fue comprado por oracle. Y como con openoffice o solaris,
nadie sabe cuanto va a durar. (punto para postgresql). Aunque ya hay
forks

Problemas Postfix

2012-07-02 Thread Antonio Insuasti Recalde
Estimados todos,

Tengo un pequeño problema, tenia un servidor virtual con postfix sobre
debian, pero la semana pasada tuve un problema con el Storage y el
acceso a la maquina virtual se perdió,
por lo que subí un postfix en un computador para seguir dando el
servicio de correo electrónico.

Ahora ya se arreglo el problema con el storage y tengo los correos de
la ultima semana en el servidor improvisado y los correos anteriores
en la máquina virtual.
pensé en usar imap sync pero me di cuenta que me migra todos los
correos, no los de la ultima semana.

Me pueden recomendar un script o algo que solo migre los correos de la
ultima semana?

Gracias de antemano por la ayuda.

e1000, only 2 of 4 expected ports available

2012-07-02 Thread Scott Edwards
I have a Dell poweredge 850 server with a quad port intel gigabit
ethernet pci-x card, but I'm only getting 2 of the 4 expected ports
listed.  The external usb drive used to boot this hasn't deleted the
'auto eth renumbering', so ports for eth0 start at eth11 - eth14.

More diagnostics here:

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1sLivuXo_LizOOzPaTQyyofZ_d5QKDUD9F176b4trREU/edit

I haven't seen anything suspect in dmesg.

 Hi,
 
 Is it safe to have backports enabled on a stable Squeeze 6.05
 system?

I have them enabled on stable Squeeze system and I know some other
people too and we haven't experienced any problems.

By default when you add the backports sources.list line, nothing is
installed from it automatically unless you run aptitude install -t
squeeze-backports package.
We have also set backports to priority 500 so everything is installed
from them automatically if it contains newer packages than Squeeze
main repositories. Note that some people say that this is more
dangerous than running Debian Unstable (currently Wheezy) and you are
doing this with your own risk.

Our sources.list lines:

```
deb http://http.debian.net/debian-backports squeeze-backports main
contrib non-free
deb-src http://http.debian.net/debian-backports squeeze-backports main
contrib non-free
```

Our /etc/apt/preferences.d/backports:

```
Package: *
Pin: release a=squeeze-backports
Pin-Priority: 500
```

Remember that you are enabling Backports with your own risk in case
you decide to enable them.

ST Visual Programmer on Squeeze

2012-07-02 Thread Fred Zinsli



Hello all

This is probably a wine specific question, but I thought I would start
here.

I am attempting to get ST Visual Programmer working properly on
Squeeze. The application installed under WINE without error, and it
actually starts and I can load programs etc, but I can't seem to send the
program to the attached device. It seems as though wine doesn't have
working USB drivers, but I admit to not knowing how WINE uses attached
devices.

If I could get a Linux equivalent application then I guess that would
be a better working solution.

The device I am attempting to flash is a STM8S105x6 via an
stm8s-discovery USB interface board.

Your comments would be most helpful

Regards

Fred

 Would you care to elaborate on this? The default pinning (priority 100) 
 will make sure you do get updates, but don't install new backports 
 unless specifically requested.

So you need to keep physically checking (maybe apt-cache policy) when a
new backport is available? 

Ahh, OK I see debian-backports-chan...@lists.debian.org, but seems
fairly high volume.

I have vague memories of when I was running iceweasel in Lenny from
backports I had to mess around with the -t switch for its dependencies
(xulrunner, and a libmoz library) because I didn't pin them but I had
iceweasel pinned. I followed the instructions from the backports
repository. But I see, now that backports is officially under the Debian
umbrella, that the instructions are different.

It was a while ago, and things change.

That is why I added maybe wrong though. So the OP could double-check
for himself.

  Also remember to disable backports before updating to wheezy.
  Release notes will probably mention this.
 
 Shouldn't be necessary, the backports versioning is specifically 
 designed so that the version in testing is higher (the magic of ~)

http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/release-notes/ch-upgrading.en.html#userbackports
But now that backports are official, that will no longer be valid?

Re: PS2 Keyboard not working after latest update

2012-07-02 Thread istimsak abdulbasir
I have never encountered this problem before. All updates I did to squeeze
never bothered my keyboard. Then again I am using a usb-keyboard. Not PS/2
connection type. I've noticed in the past using PS/2 keyboard they did not
always work. I will have to do a little investigation on this matter.
However your issue helps me look deeper into how my system detects and adds

Crontab, Scripting and Syslog

2012-07-02 Thread Titanus Eramius
Hi folks
On my webserver I've recently added a log-sorting and presentation
program by the name of Webalizer. To make it run, I've put this line in
the crontab (everything runs as a normal user):

* 04 * * * /home/titanus/scripts/web-log  /dev/null 21

The line runs every morning at 4, and AFAIK, the /dev/-part should
redirect all but errors to null.

The script is really simple:

#!/bin/sh
webalizer=/usr/bin/webalizer
yesterday_date=$(date -d yesterday +%Y.%m.%d)

# For debugging
# echo $webalizer
# echo $yesterday_date

if test -e /var/log/apache2/access.$yesterday_date; then
   $webalizer /var/log/apache2/access.$yesterday_date
   else
   echo Yesterdays log not found. Exiting
   exit 12
fi

exit 0

Now, my question is these lines in syslog:

titanus@aptget:~$ sudo cat /var/log/syslog | grep titanus
Jun 11 04:00:01 aptget /USR/SBIN/CRON[1567]: (titanus) CMD
(/home/titanus/scripts/web-log  /dev/null 21)
Jun 11 04:01:01 aptget /USR/SBIN/CRON[1572]: (titanus) CMD
(/home/titanus/scripts/web-log  /dev/null 21)

(One line per minut for an entire hour)

Jun 11 04:59:01 aptget /USR/SBIN/CRON[1879]: (titanus) CMD
(/home/titanus/scripts/web-log  /dev/null 21)

What do they mean?
As far as I can see, the result of Webalizer is made at 4, not 4:59, so
I suspect the srcipt only runs at 4. The system is a standard Squeeze
with nothing funny or unstable.

Thanks, tit

These lines are cron telling you what it's running. Note that your
crontab line states: 

# min hr dom mon dow command 
 *   04 *   *   *   /home/titanus/scripts/web-log  /dev/null 21

That is, every minute during hour 4, on every day of every month (that
being every day of the week), the command is run.

Presumably, webalizer writes its output to the same place each time, so
that is why you're only seeing the output of the 4:59 run.

Try changing your crontab to read:

# min hr dom mon dow command 
  0   04 *   *   *   /home/titanus/scripts/web-log  /dev/null 21

This will run at 4:00 every day, and is probably what you meant.

Yes, if something removes the udev state in /dev/.udev (or /run/udev
on wheezy or sid) then the input device autodetection won't work
when X starts up.

If you have a USB (NOT PS/2) keyboard/mouse, try unplugging and then
plug back in--hotplugging should result in autodetection of the new
input devices.

If you're running wheezy/unstable, and /run is a symlink to /var/run,
your system is broken (/run should not be a symlink), and you should
try the packages at

Why? The usual trend is for products to improve as they mature.

If that goes well, I'll burn a copy of the ISO to a DVD of 
the same production batch used for my Debian install.


I'm a slow typist - test install completed without apparent 
symptoms.


Hmmm - now that I stop and think about it.
I believe all observed symptoms revolve around root password 
not being recognized.

And Ubuntu forcibly prohibits root passwords.

Further musings - I believe all working installs have been 
to sda1 - i.e. a physical partition. All others have been to 
a partition under sda2 - an extended partition.


I see a set of diagnostic installs in my future - same 
distro to physical partition and to a partition under an 
extended partition. [I hesitated to say LVM until I double 
check definitions.]



Have you considered installing from USB stick instead?


Yes. But by personality I'm the type that will the WHY? of 
a failure before looking for a workaround. Besides I've the 
time to do the grunt work of repetitive testing for the 
underpinnings of a decent bug report even if I don't have 
the skills to fix it.




Anyway, for inconsistent errors (now works, now doesn't), sometimes is
better to replace the DVD drive for a new one (specially when is old
for today standards which means 4/5 years), and given their current
prices (~25€) that's something affordable.


Cost of a replacement drive is not an issue. As I prefer 
brick-n-mortar it would be 8 hour round trip to get one. I'm 
in *VERY* RURAL south west Missouri (livestock much more 
common than people ;)





I've already run memtest86 and Seagate disk diagnostics demonstrating
that problems from that area is unlikely.

I need two diagnostics:
1. verify what's on the CD matches the ISO from which it
was generated.
   [already have verified that the downloaded MD5SUM
matches repository]

debian.org reminds me of the original CPM-80 manual, info 
there but dense in all possible connotations of the word


Perhaps I should have specified I was looking for end user

2. verify target system reads CD/DVD correctly.

Is your CD/DVD reader capable of booting from it?



yes

i386 testing: java not recognizing its libraries and libreoffice not launching

2012-07-02 Thread Francesco Pietra
Following update/upgrade, java does not recognize libjli.so any more.
I had to set LD_LIBRARY... to remedy.

Nonetheless, libreoffice  does not start any more:

francesco@deb32:~$ libreoffice
terminate called after throwing an instance of
'com::sun::star::uno::RuntimeException'
francesco@deb32:~$


I thought it is a java problem. What else?

Incidentally, I turned to AbiWORD for my .dot table. Unless my i386
testing has major problems, that text editor is simply unusable for
complex tables. In general, while at the linux prompt Debian works
well (in particular amd64 testing, here in use for a  GPU-CPU
cluster), once gnome is launched installed, problems arise. Too many
things that in science are not used, too much done automatically, and
often erroneously. I am at gnome simply for gchempaint, other wise
there is no decent pdf reader not CD burner, which are useful to any
purpose. I had to install okular and k3b, making the complex even more
complex. With such stuff as gnome, which even pretends to take care of
upgrading, newcomers will not even learn how to mount a device.

Thanks for advice about libreoffice

francesco pietra

PS: I am not at the stable i386 version simply to have a
correspondence with testing amd64 which we have to use for recent
nvidia  drivers for GPU-CPU clusters.

No.

1. This runs every minute while the hour is 4. If you want the script
to run only a 4am, you need to specify a zero minute value too

2. The  /dev/null 21 tells cron to thow away not just errors but

  ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/10_linux ###
 
 os-prober doesn't need /boot/grub/grub.cfg in Ubuntu to exist in

I have Squeeze and Wheezy.  I uninstalled Wheezy's grub, but then
Squeeze's grub did not detect kernel upgrades in Wheezy.  After
reinstalling Wheezy's grub, things worked right again.
That's why I concluded that Wheezy's /boot/grub/grub.cfg is needed.

 If /boot/grub/grub.cfg exists in Ubuntu, os-prober uses its kernel
 options in the Debian /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober section.

Yep, I once moved Wheezy to another partition.  Wheezy's grub.cfg still
contained the old partition, and Squeeze's os-prober adopted that.
I had to correct the partition in Wheezy's grub.cfg to get it working
right again.

Hi folks:

Interesting blog-post here (1) on the controversy. Any particular reason why
Debian decided to go the libav route and what about the quote in the
article where it mentions that the Debian Packager is spreading
misinformation?

As a Debian user for some time I'm astonished that Debian decided to go
the libav route if this blog post is accurate;
http://blog.pkh.me/p/13-the-ffmpeg-libav-situation.html

The author seems quite level headed about his reasoning which do make
quite a bit of sense to this reader.

 Ouch!!, at least try different media first, some media are problematic
 with some DVD/CD drives (according to some stuff I've read)

The above weird, inconsistent, and intermittent errors indicate some

I'd say now is even safer than before because the backported packages are 
integrated within the official repositories which should lead to less

Just use it with caution and consider a correct pinning if you are

To: debian-users debian-user@lists.debian.org


Following update/upgrade, java does not recognize libjli.so any more.
I had to set LD_LIBRARY... to remedy.

Nonetheless, libreoffice  does not start any more:

francesco@deb32:~$ libreoffice
terminate called after throwing an instance of
'com::sun::star::uno::RuntimeException'
francesco@deb32:~$


I thought it is a java problem. What else?

Incidentally, I turned to AbiWORD for my .dot table. Unless my i386
testing has major problems, that text editor is simply unusable for
complex tables. In general, while at the linux prompt Debian works
well (in particular amd64 testing, here in use for a  GPU-CPU
cluster), once gnome is launched installed, problems arise. Too many
things that in science are not used, too much done automatically, and
often erroneously. I am at gnome simply for gchempaint, other wise
there is no decent pdf reader not CD burner, which are useful to any
purpose. I had to install okular and k3b, making the complex even more
complex. With such stuff as gnome, which even pretends to take care of
upgrading, newcomers will not even learn how to mount a device.

Thanks for advice about libreoffice

francesco pietra

PS: I am not at the stable i386 version simply to have a
correspondence with testing amd64 which we have to use for recent
nvidia  drivers for GPU-CPU clusters.

You mean you get only 2 of the 4 ports for both cards, right?

 The external usb drive used to boot this hasn't deleted the 'auto eth

You can re-do the udev rules for the network interface so it starts by

No.  That was true when people valued quality over a few bucks.  Nowadays,
everything that can be thrown out with just a minimal loss of quality starts
to get thrown out when the device gets good enough.  You cannot get any
good DVD or CD writers anymore, at least not for the definitions of good
(extremely low jitter and noise) you once could, for example.

Writeable media has the same problem.

Heck, you cannot even listen to CD audio with no frequency aliasing, zero
bus, and zero cpu usage anymore (i.e. using the analog or digital audio
output of the drive itself).  The same way that you cannot buy a floppy
drive that is worth anything, let alone one that could work in IORDY mode,
e.g., for use in the Commodore Amiga.

This comment is addressed to this thread because it is a question that
has puzzled me about squeeze-backports. I know that one must do a special
thing, namely -t option in order to actually download and install a
backported package, but how does one know of the existance of a backported
package. For packages in the general main/squeeze grouping, I have browsed
the interactive user interface of Aptitude. Do the backports show up there
if I add the line to my sources.list? If no, where do I browse? If yes,
how do I know that they are somehow special, and that I need to do more
than typing a simple + to select them? 

The answer may be obvious and innately intuitive, but I have found from
experience, intuitive is something that I was told long ago and not 
remembered until presented with an actual example. I don't think I have
been told how to intuit the answers here.

There is no direct relationship.

Basically, you need eth0 bridged (using br0) to allow other virtual
machines to pick up an IP address on your real network.

If NM were capable of controlling br0, you could retain the flexibility
of using NM for all networking with having the convenience of using
various NICs in virtual machines as desired.

But evidently NM doesn't manage br0, so you have to drop control of any
ethernet functionality and just use NM for wireless.


 Well, for this scenario, I wouldn't use N-M regardless the linux 
 distribution, 
 not just Debian. N-M is aimed for laptops or mobile devices.

I'm using a laptop :)

 Would this second interface have to physically exist?
 
 For a true bridge, I guess yes :-)

Are you sure your install CD is good? Did you check the .iso against the 
MD5 checksum?


Upgrading Ubuntu is a little painful. You really need to commit to 
either upgrading every six months for the regular releases or every 
other year for the LTS release. However, you may have some luck editing 
/etc/apt/sources.list, replacing the 8.10 code name with the current 
(precise) one, then doing:

sudo bash
apt-get update
apt-get dist-upgrade

Yes, I'm learning that this is clearly the case.

 You're doing pretty much what I do. I have four bridges (but only 3 NICs: one 
 bridge goes nowhere) for testing my firewalls (RED/GREEN/PURPLE/ORANGE). I 
 can 
 have a number of firewalls running in KVMs, attached to any combination of 
 four bridges. I can direct Squeeze's default route to any of them or to the 
 bridge direct to my perimeter F/W.

Most of this could be achieved over a virtual network, though, couldn't
it?  I would use a virtual network for firewall testing.  I need real
network IPs for using real network resources, e.g. grabbing something
off a local server over NFS.


 The bridge device (e.g. br0) is a network interface. The NIC is a network 
 interface. The tap device (e.g. tap0) appears as a network interface to the 
 VM. A bridge device doesn't need a real NIC to operate. It's perfectly happy 
 to bridge zero or more taps to itself. The host doesn't need to actively use 
 a 
 brX device (with IP address, et al) for it to bridge VMs together. 

I'm trying to get my head around this.  I need to read more on this
subject. :)

 Kernel-
 wise, a bridge device is very similar to a run-of-the-mill 8-port ethernet 
 switch: it bridges whatever is connected to it. Or it sits idle when it has 
 no 
 member devices other than itself.

One thing that becomes apparent with (GNU/)Linux is the sheer number of
networking options that it's capable of. The ability to simulate complex
networks, for instance.

Thanks.

 I have them enabled on stable Squeeze system and I know some other

 By default when you add the backports sources.list line, nothing is
 installed from it automatically unless you run aptitude install -t
 squeeze-backports package.
 We have also set backports to priority 500 so everything is installed
 from them automatically if it contains newer packages than Squeeze
 main repositories. Note that some people say that this is more
 dangerous than running Debian Unstable (currently Wheezy) and you are
 doing this with your own risk.
 
 Our sources.list lines:
 
 ```
 deb http://http.debian.net/debian-backports squeeze-backports main
 contrib non-free
 deb-src http://http.debian.net/debian-backports squeeze-backports main
 contrib non-free
 ```
 
 Our /etc/apt/preferences.d/backports:
 
 ```
 Package: *
 Pin: release a=squeeze-backports
 Pin-Priority: 500
 ```
 
 Remember that you are enabling Backports with your own risk in case
 you decide to enable them.

I second that. Especially when trying to install newer kernels from backports. 
Recently I had problems when 3.2. kernel upgrade from backports lead to 
deinstalling initramfs-tools. DON'T!
Trying to upgrade the underlying libraries rapidly led me into dependency-
hell.
I decided to stay with 2.6.38 kernel from backports.
[pidgin french]
Vive la sauvegard du système d'exploitation!
[/pidgin french]

Backports is OK IMHO as long as you limit yourself to applications and if you 
know how to fall back to stable versions if something goes wrong but leave the 
main system alone unless you really want to learn to be an expert and to know 
the Debian package system intimately.
There are workable upgrade paths for one stable release to the other, even 
upgrading stable to testing is usually quite painless but backports can rarely 
provide such convenience.

My 2 cents worth

That was almost the right answer  ;)

 If you need a bridge (like I do), AFAIK the only two solutions are:
 
 - uninstall network manager and return to using /etc/network/interfaces
 - add the missing code to network manager

I'm trying to decide what's more tempting...

 I have tried various ways of persuading NM that it wants to control
 my bridged interface instead of the physical one, and it really won't
 play ball. I had wanted to try and keep NM on my laptop because it does
 wireless better than my previous home-grown solutions. But I've had
 to unmanage my wired NIC and now NM tries really hard to bring up the
 wireless interface each time someone logs in.

I like the ease with which I can configure (and test) VPNs for clients

 Oh well. I suppose I should be glad I'm not alone. But it doesn't really
 help you, does it.

No... but as you say, knowing the there might be a reasonable use case
for controlling a bridged ethernet device means there may be a solution,

Thanks, rjc, for a very informative post. Unfortunately, my setup (Stock

 In KDE4 the directory in question is $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/autostart [0] or
 $KDEHOME/Autostart [1].
 
Neither of those variables is set here, so ~/.config/autostart looks
promising. Sadly, putting the link to my script in there doesn't cause
it to be run on login.

 As mentioned, I have a link to that script in ~/kde/autostart.
 Unfortunately it doesn't autostart.

Why not? You chastise me for giving insufficient information, but you're

Excuse the typo; it should have read ~/kde/Autostart.

Someone else suggested using the inbuilt KDE autostart tool. That does
actually work, so Im out of the woods, but I'd dearly love to know how
it works. Thank you very much for the suggestion.

 
 P.S. If you'd like your script to run both from X and console login,
 put it in KDE's autostart folder and run it from .bash_profile,
 .bash_login or .profile (in that order as Bash will stop searching for
 the other ones after the first success - told you it's a bit of a mess

OK, thanks for the information; I'll try to get it working for KDE login
first.

 [0] if $XDG_CONFIG_HOME is not set it defaults to $HOME/.config

Oh heck, sorry.  It's KVM.  I thought I'd mentioned that.  Oops.


 Basically, you need eth0 bridged (using br0) to allow other virtual
 machines to pick up an IP address on your real network.
 
 Well, not in VirtualBox (or not at least not when using a windows host), 
 that should be a requirement coming from whatever VM solution are you 
 using.

It sounds like VirtualBox simply takes care of that for you, on Windows.

 You will get more flexibility (and reliability) when using /etc/

Looks like man 5 interfaces is my friend :)

 I'd say now is even safer than before because the backported packages
 are integrated within the official repositories which should lead to
 less packages/libraries collisions.
 
 Just use it with caution and consider a correct pinning if you are
 planing of making an intensive use of them.

 This comment is addressed to this thread because it is a question that
 has puzzled me about squeeze-backports. I know that one must do a
 special thing, namely -t option in order to actually download and
 install a backported package, 

For installing single packages, yes, -t should be enough. Otherwise, 
pinning (prioritize backports over the standard repositories) should be 
more convenient.

 but how does one know of the existance of a backported package. 

As usual, you go to the online search and type the name of the package. 
If there's a backport counterpart it will listed there.

You can also query from here:

http://backports-master.debian.org/Packages/

 For packages in the general main/squeeze grouping, I have browsed the
 interactive user interface of Aptitude. Do the backports show up there
 if I add the line to my sources.list? If no, where do I browse? If yes,
 how do I know that they are somehow special, and that I need to do more
 than typing a simple + to select them?

(...)

I don't use the backport repositories but I guess yes, if you have it 
listed in your sources.list the queries (e.g., apt-search) should also 
provide the versions of the packages available in the backports.

Anyway, I prefer to use the web search instead, I feel more confortable 
with the online interface where I can get extra information for the 
packages.

The ISO images, like the rest of the archive, are signed using
OpenPGP (GnuPG) signatures.  You can obtain the signing key from
db.debian.org or the public keyservers.

 If the answer is no, which were to correct component to file a bug

None.  The signing is rather more secure than what a TLS connection
would give you.  It's signed by a number of Debian developers, and
backed by the entire web of trust (many thousands of signatures).
You don't need to download the signing (public) key securely in
order to validate that you have the correct one--it's not rooted
in a single place.

If you go and meet some developers and sign each other's keys, you
can be a part of this web of trust.  i.e. trace the signature all
the way back to *your* key.  This is real trust, based upon real
people trusting each other, rather than just having some purchased
certificate--how much trust do you place in one of those?

Re: TLS encrypted source for Debian iso signing keys?

2012-07-02 Thread Jochen Spieker
anots...@fastmail.fm:

 Is there any TLS encrypted source for downloading the Debian iso signing
 keys?

None that I know of, but I don't see a need for that either. Sure, you
could use one of the built-in certificates in your browser to bootstrap
the chain of trust to the signing keys. But that's not how PGP is
designed. If you don't own a PGP key that is somehow connected to the
Debian signing key, you can do something like this:

- Fetch the ISO + signature file (MD5SUMS, MD5SUMS.sign)
- Fetch the key used to sign the ISO and verify the signature
- See how this key is connected to other keys you may have reason to
  trust (e.g. because you already have software installed that is signed
  by a key that also signed the key used to sign the ISO)

The last step is a little awkward and unfortunately I didn't find a
(functional) web page that helps in tracking down trust paths easily.
The sites I found are either broken or use a hopelessly outdated key
set.

On the other hand, the model used by SSL/TLS depends on you trusting all
of the various, mostly unknown entities that somehow managed to have
their certificate shipped by your browser vendor. Remember that there's
no limit on which sites a certificate my sign. The past two years have
shown that this security model does not deserve as much trust as people
put into it.

 If the answer is no, which were to correct component to file a bug
 against?

If I were to file this bug I would report it against d-i. But I don't
think it will be solved in a satisfying way for you.

What I find more interesting is that the key 0x6294BE9B (Debian CD
signing key) only has nine signatures and only one from someone using
his official @debian org address (0x3442684E, Steve McIntyre). That
could surely be improved. I am a little bit disappointed to learn that
even my fairly well-connected key doesn't help in finding a trust path
to the CD signing key.

I still do believe a TLS encrypted source to obtain the iso signing keys
is necessary.

What about the people who live many miles away from the next developer?
Someone living on an isle should take the next flight just to get the
gpg keys?

What about the people who are unable to meet with the next developer?
Example: Disabled ones or poor ones (journeys are expensive), etc...

The root CA's are not that bad. How many people do not get MITMed while
doing stuff like online banking... Scammers use (spear)fishing, breaks
in root CA's happen but are rare.

There are already free (as in free beer) root CA's (startssl). It won't
cost anything but requesting and installing the free certificate.
Without scarifying anything else.

Of these, I have signed Steve's key from when we met in Cambridge
earlier in the year, and I also signed Colin's new key (38C9D903)
but this isn't yet being used.  So I am just two hops to the key
in the web of trust.  I'm probably just another hop or two by
all the other keys, since I signed Adam and Simon's older keys,
and I also have lots of paths to the keys via other people's
keys.  Even if I had never met any of these people personally,
I'd still only be three or four hops away.

 I'm trying to get my head around this.  I need to read more on this
 subject. :)

Think of a bridge (br0) as a length of wire that you create with the command 
'brctl addbr br0'. The br0 IF is a wire from the host Linux to the bridge. Now 
you start a KVM session with a tun/tap virtual NIC. That tap device is another 
wire, this time between the bridge and the VM.

At this point, your host Linux and your VM can communicate across the bridge, 
but nowhere else. Configure them with DHCP or staticly and you'll have them 
gabbing TCP/IP.

But, you lament, I want to talk to the outside world! So now add a real 
NIC as a member device using 'brctl addif br0 eth0'. This appears as a wire 
between the bridge and the NIC. Eight violas! Your host Linux's br0 and each 
VM's virtual NIC can now also talk to the outside world. Configure them with 
DHCP or staticly and they'll be talking TCP/IP with the planet.

Now, let's change the scenario a bit. Suppose you need a new network switch 
but haven't the cash. But you *do* have a system with four dual-port NICs. So 
install a basic GNU/Linux distro with brctl, create a bridge (brctl addbr br0) 
and add all eight NICs to the bridge (for i in 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7; do brctl addif 
br0 eth$i; done). Plug the computers' net cables in (assuming you have 
polarity-sensing NICs and/or crossover cables). You now have a functioning 8-
port switch. Not so good, it uses a lot more electrons that a real switch. 
Also not so good, it won't do anything about loops. Better, your GNU/Linux 
host is invisible. Best, you can monitor and/or log all traffic crossing your 
switch and no one will be the wiser. Now add a spanning tree protocol (STP) 
daemon. Your switch will become slightly translucent, but will help block 
loops that could be used with bad intent.

To be sure, the wire metaphor isn't wholly true; it'd be more like an old-
timey hub where each node sees all traffic. A proper bridge device should 
limit traffic to the two endpoints (and to the host's brX device). And, like 
the bullets at the surreal OK Corral, all the 'wire' I mentioned is not real; 
the bridge is entirely virtual, consisting of naught but bits.

I wrote my own KVM control script because I wanted to explicitly control 
various aspects of the taps and bridges.

Each VM's virtual NIC MAC address encodes the VM instance and the attached tap 
instance; I know which VM it is and which bridge the NIC is connected to (in 
MAC addr byte 6, 0-3 is always RD/GN/PU/OR, respectively, regardless of how 
many or how few virt NICs I assign to a VM):

Re: TLS encrypted source for Debian iso signing keys?

 I still do believe a TLS encrypted source to obtain the iso signing keys
 is necessary.

TLS encryption means that
- what travels over the connection is encrypted, and in theory only
  decryptable at the two endpoints
- the identity of the endpoints are authenticated by possession of
  certificates

Neither of these gives you any means of validating the provenance
of the data which you receive.

The GPG signatures let you validate that the content that you
downloaded has not been tampered with since it was signed and that
it is bit-for-bit identical with what the authors signed.  But you
could download it from anywhere, even an untrusted source, and
still be able to validate that it was the genuine article.

 What about the people who live many miles away from the next developer?
 Someone living on an isle should take the next flight just to get the
 gpg keys?

No necessarily.  Suppose you have a friend who has been to a
conference and exchanged signatures with the people he met there.
You can exchange signatures with your friend, and because you
trust him, you also trust the people he trusts.  This is the
principle for how the web of trust operates.

But meeting people directly means you can place a higher level of
trust in them, so it is desirable to do so.  I spent a day travelling
to Manchester from my home town to get my GPG key signed by a
Debian developer so I could initially join the project.  And I
subsequetly built up a collection of many tens of signatures over
the course of a decade, mainly from UK developers, but also from
people in the US, Europe etc.

This is the point of the web of trust--it's strong because it's
based upon physical interaction with other people and validating
their identities.  I can trust that this key is genuine because
I've met several people, who met other people, who met Steve,
Colin, Adam, etc., who then signed the archive signing key.  That
is exceedingly difficult to fake.

 The root CA's are not that bad. How many people do not get MITMed while
 doing stuff like online banking... Scammers use (spear)fishing, breaks
 in root CA's happen but are rare.

As I said above, these are generally used to solve a different
problem.  The actual ISO image is not signed with the certificate,
so the CA and TLS gives you nothing.

But (going off-topic), breaks in CAs do happen, and they issue
certificates to anyone who can pay, doing very little validation.
The security they provide is mostly illusory.  If you could
download the signing keys over TLS, what would that *really*
mean?  The answer is, outside the connection being encrypted,
not much, really.


Regards,
Roger

Three problems with TDE 3.5.13 ?Bugs?

2012-07-02 Thread Lisi
Soory, Slávek.  I didn't mean it to go to you.

 I had the following 3 problems with a 3.5.13 installation with Slávek's 
patches.  Suggestions for solutions?

1st  When I tried to install kaffeine:  kaffeine-trinity?   I looked for it 
before trying to install, so got it right, but I am not sure now.

I can give no other useful information.  I have not managed to capture the 
error message, and the computer concerned is 10 miles and an ocean of 
antibiotics away.

It seems likely therefore that this is insoluble for now.

2nd  Flash, which was working, suddenly stopped working.  I.e., where things 
had displayed and played correctly, the error message that came up on the 
website was:
quote
Alert icon 
 You need to upgrade your Adobe Flash Player to watch this video. 
 Download it from Adobe.
/quote

But Flash is as up-to-date as is possible on Debian.

3rd
quoteFailed to update the old Database to the new Database format
This error can happen if the Album Path '/home/john/Pictures' does not 
exist or is write-protected.
If you have moved your photo collection, you need to adjust the 'Album 
Path' in digikam's configuration file.rd  Attempts to run DigiKam produce the 
following error message:
/quote
There is a database folder in the .digikam folder.  The name includes the 
numeral 3.

Not much info, I know.  But unfortunately, as I said, the computer is 10 miles 
away and I am temporarily housebound.

Lisi
