Cuando todo lo que intentes falle, y tengas unas verdaderas ganas de 
revolear la computadora por la ventana, antes, probá con esto, que 
reinstala ALSA tal cual como si recién hubieses terminado de instalar el 
sistema.

Es la solución extrema:

Bueno, pues al final lo he solucionado desactivando el ipv6 en el

Lo primero que tendrías que ver es si el router hace NAT o algún tipo de 
filtrado. Si lo hace, tendrás que trabajar desde ahí. Si no lo hace, 
tendrás que configurar iptables en tu equipo (el que tiene las dos placas 
de red) para que haga NAT y un reenvío de puertos hacia la segunda 
tarjeta de red y en el puerto especificado.

Dile a tu gato que no debe subirse a la mesa ni desactivar o modificar el 
volumen de los parlantes :-)

Si tu gato te dice seriamente que no ha sido él, entonces haz 
comprobaciones típicas para este tipo de eventos paranormales: 
verificación de las conexiones y parámetros de los altavoces, 
verificación de los valores del applet de sonido, comprobar si falla todo 
tipo de sonidos o sólo algunos (youtube, audio del sistema...).

Si todo falla, reiniciar de nuevo el equipo saltando sobre una pierna y 
recitando El Señor de los Anillos al revés (es broma :-P).

Re: Servidor ftp grande

 estoy mirando este tema y me pregunto como se podria hacer un servidor
 ftp para varios millones de usuarios. Con proftpd por ejemplo.

Sï, pero el quid del asunto no estaría en el servicios que quieras

usuarios y la carga de los sistemas. Tendrías que usar algún tipo de 
sistema distribuido para dar soporte (y su consabido backup) a toda esa 
millonada de gente (y de los datos que generen).

 El problema, en principio, creo que esta en que cada maquina soporta un
 numero maximo de usuarios registrados. Parece ser que el archivo es
 /etc/passwd, concretamente el campo 3 el que indica el numero de
 usuario.

Hombre... no creo que nadie en su sano juicio use usuarios de sistema 
para dar soporte a más de 1000 usuarios de FTP. Para eso están las bases 
de datos y los directorios y PAM puede trabajar con ambos.

 Mirando por Google el tema creo que tiene que ver con LDAP, pero no se
 si voy bien encaminado.

Por ejemplo. Tendrás que ver contra qué tipo de usuarios te permite 
autentificar ProFTP y qué recomiendan para grandes cantidades :-)

Sí, claro. 

Es lo mismo que hace un router con modem ADSL y NAT activado: los 
paquetes que se reciben desde la interfaz marcada como WAN (IP externa, 
p. ej., 200.200.200.0) los enruta hacia la red interna (LAN) que 
pertenece al ámbilo de la red local (192.168.0.0/10.104.0.0).

CUPS no imprime archivos pdf


Antes de hacer los desastres que estoy previendo hacer,
¿alguno tuvo problemas para imprimir con CUPS 1.5.3-1 un archivo PDF?

Por lo que estuve viendo, no soy el único

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=631859
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?pkg=cups;dist=unstable
https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/30081
https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/30021

Me tomé el trabajo de desinstalar y purgar todo lo relativo a cups, y 
volver a instalar, y el problema persiste.


Mi impresora es una Brother HL-2170W, la cual utiliza un controlador 
provisto por Brother, en arquitectura i386, pero en su página indica que 
su instalación en amd64 se hace mediante un forzado (dpkg -i --force-all 
cupswrapperHL2170W-2.0.2-1.i386.deb)


Cabe aclara que la impresora funciona en forma perfecta, excepto con 
archivos pdf, por lo que presumo que el problema anda por el paquete 
poppler-utils, específicamente con /usr/bin/pdftops, dado que cups no 
recibe ningún archivo para imprimir.


He intentado a mano convertir de pdf a ps, y se realiza en forma 
correcta, pero cuando intento imprimir el archivo ps, al igual que con 
pdf, cups no recibe nada; ni siquiera hay errores.


El paso que me queda es compilar la última versión de cups y sus 
dependencias.


Antes de hacerlo, pregunto.

En mi negocio hemos utilizado siempre impresoras láser Brother y con 
ninguna hemos tenido problemas para imprimir PDFs, de hecho nuestro 
sistema genera PDFs de todos los comprobantes que utilizamos.
Los modelos que utilizamos sin problemas fueron HL-2040, HL-2070N y 
HL-2170W. Actualmente estamos usando una HL-2270W con dúplex.


Nuestras computadoras tienen Debian Squeeze y Wheezy, alguna de 32 bits 
y el resto de 64.


Ya que estamos, comento que usamos un multifunción Canon MP-140 que 
funciona perfectamente, tanto la impresión como el escáner.

Samba 4 en Debian 7?

2012-08-03 Thread Federico Alberto Sayd


Hola a todos:

Solo por curiosidad, alguien ha planeado implementar Samba 4 en Debian?

Hace bastante tiempo que le sigo los pasos al desarrollo de Samba 4, y 
he visto como los paquetes de Samba 4 han llegado incluso a Wheezy, y 
ahora que Wheezy ha sido congelado, me pregunto si Samba 4 entrará en la 
release oficial.


La duda viene porque los mismos desarrolladores de Samba 4 dicen que 
todavía no está listo para ser usado en producción y por otra parte en 
http://packages.debian.org/samba4 la descripción del paquete dice:


These packages contain snapshot versions of Samba 4, the next-generation 
version of Samba. These should be considered _experimental_, and should 
not be used in production.



De cualquier forma me gustaría hacer algunas pruebas porque por lo que 
estuve leyendo como DC anda muy bien (Al parecer como miembro tiene 
algunos problemas)


Si alguien sabe algo... que dispare :-)


Saludos a todos

He vuelto a limpiar todo, y reinstalarlos,
apt-get install cups cups-pdf hpijs-ppds
Y sigue sin funciona; la impresora no es el problema, dado que hace lo 
mismo con otras impresoras; aún más, tomo un archivo pdf y lo mando a 
imprimir a la impresora virtual cups-pdf, pasa lo mismo, o sea, nada.


Y estas impresoras, la Brother HL-2170W y la Xerox WC3550 funcionaban 
bien hasta hace una semana, cuando tuvo un pequeño inconveniente.


Próxima prueba: hacer lo que no se debe, o sea, mezclar ramas e instalar 
cups desde stable, si no funciona, desde sid.

ssh não acessa pelo hostname

2012-08-03 Thread John DeRose

Olá pessoal,

Uso ssh para trabalhar com o servidor da rede.
Então precisei alterar o hostname dele e agora o ssh só acessa
informando o ip do servidor e não mais pelo hostname.

Os arquivos que alterei foram:
/etc/hosts
/etc/hostname

Alguem sabe se tenho que configurar mais algum arquivo para o
ssh acessar pelo hostname?

Re: ssh não acessa pelo hostname

2012-08-03 Thread Adiel de Lima Ribeiro

John, pelo que entendi você alterou apenas o hostname do servidor, você
deve modificar a entrada que aponta para ele em seu DNS, para que ela
reflita o novo IP.
Ou então da máquina que você utiliza para se conectar ao servidor
alterar o /etc/hosts e colocar o novo ip e nome do servidor ssh.

Olá,

Então pessoal, os arquivos no meu servidor estão assim,
após ter mudado o hostname de 'servidor1' para 'servidor01':

- /etc/hosts:
127.0.0.1servidor01.empresaservidor01

- /etc/hostname:
servidor01

- /etc/resolv.conf
nameserver 200.175.5.139
nameserver 200.175.89.139

Uma coisa que percebi é que mesmo alterando o hostname,
os arquivos /etc/ssh/ssh_host/dsa_key.pub e /etc/ssh/ssh_host/rsa_key.pub
contem o hostname antigo, ou seja, servidor1 e não servidor01.
Isso implica em alguma coisa?

Re: GNU find: print0 and -type arguments

Martin Steigerwald wrote:
 martin@merkaba:~/Zeit/find-Test find \( -type d -print \) -o \( -name file

 ./anotherfile./dir
 0 ./file% 

 martin@merkaba:~/Zeit/find-Test

It is inconsistent to mix -print0 with -print and -printf.  Just use
one or the other consistently.

 Which is the same as without braces:
 
 martin@merkaba:~/Zeit/find-Test find -type d -print -o -name file -printf 
 %s %p -o -name anotherfile -print0
 .
 ./anotherfile./dir
 0 ./file% 

Yes.

 Now I am wondering about the order.
 
 Why does find print another file before .dir and file after another 
 file?

You seem to be missing the basic operation of find.  The find program
iterates across ever file and processes arguments from left to right
for that file.  As long as the action returns true then find continues
to process arguments from left to right.  If any argument returns
false then processing stops for that file.  Find then proceeds to the
next file and restarts processing arguments for the next file from
left to right.

  find -type d -print -o -name file -printf %s %p -o -name anotherfile 
-print0

For every file find processes it walks across the argument list.  For
your example arguments it is something like this:

  for each file do
if type d then
  print
else
  if name file then
printf %s %p
  else
if name anotherfile then
  print0
end
  end
end
  end

Also 'find' walks through the directory in the order of the entries in
the list.  It doesn't sort the entries first.  This means that they
are in an arbitrary order.  They might appear in any order but the
order will be repeatable for that particular directory.

I hate pulseaudio, but I could imagine that systemd anyway could have

Is there a relationship between taking your own picture in a mirror
and developing software?

I, personally, recognize a certain ironic connection, particularly in
relation to Poettering. I'll leave it to the list readers who care, to
understand or misunderstand what I mean. (Not sure discussing it
belongs here, but I can understand why Ralf might want to bring it
up.)

I don't know what brings Tom H here, but I am becoming more active
here precisely because of systemd. Well, that, and SELinux. Too many
changes too fast, too many of them shifting from stable techniques
known to work in *nix environments to experimental implementations of
techniques that are known to be primary underlying factors of many of
the technical issues in the monoculture/world-domination OS.

I don't, for example, dare try Fedora as an alternative to the ancient
Mac OS X on the ancient but still viable iBook that my sister uses to
keep in touch with the family. I have absolutely no confidence that I
would be able to do the remote administration she needs done every now
and then.

(Fedora 13 or 14 would still have worked, fwiw.)

There are both technical and political issues here that go way beyond
the scope of this thread in debian-user, beyond a simple word to the
wise:

Be very, very careful with systemd.

I have absolutely no idea why I'm subscribed and post to d-u! ;)

That seems odd to me.

If you have genuine technical reasons for being wary of systemd, fine!

Uh, huh, and that's why I'm offering the heads-up.

If you have an emotional negative reaction to Lennart Poettering, then
your carefulness is silly.

I notice there is a certain class of politicking where the Don't be
emotional! argument gets trotted out really quickly.

Poettering actually seems like he'd be a fun guy to hang around with.
If you're on his side.

The reiserfs developer's a convicted
murderer, that didn't make reiserfs technically inferior overnight.
(Please note that I've never used reiserfs, so I don't care either
way.)

And the primary vision which guided development of the file system is,
well, no longer able to be applied to the project.

But I've never accused Poettering of being any kind of criminal.
Excessive pride in one's creations and inability to deal with
criticism are personal failings, but they are not crimes. Not
particularly rare, either. (Yeah, I have personal failings, too, and
they do impact my projects.)

Yeah, talking about people tends to draw attention away from technical
issues, which is why I'm biting my tongue here.

The technical issues start out with this problem:

systemd is far too disruptive to have been stuffed into the main
branch of Fedora the way it was. Good engineering would have been to
have set up two concurrent forks of Fedora, to keep reference points
available when working on the integration, and to provide a safety net
when systemd's basic design errors surface.

Concurrent forks are usually not a good idea, but systemd affects
everything. Parallel forks become a necessary evil here, and it will
be the same for any replacement to sysinitv that doesn't try to
maintain a fairly high level of compatibility.

And basic design errors should always be assumed to exist in projects
of this scope, which is one of the big reasons for the parallel work.

That's where the technical problems started, and some of the fallout
has been noted on this list. Lots more can be seen in lots of bugs
that haven't even been triaged yet on Fedora's bugzilla.

And I have other things to do.

Blu-ray drive unable to detect media

2012-08-03 Thread Gary Dale

I am working with an older computer that has a blu-ray writer attached 
through a PCI SATA card for making backups.


What's happening is that every now and then it fails to mount the 
blu-ray disc. Once this happens, it gets stuck into that mode until I 
power down the computer, wait a few seconds then restart it. Simply 
rebooting won't fix it, but the power cycling does.


Until it's power cycled, it fails to detect the media in the drive.

I'm looking for a better way of handling this error since the machine is 
at a remote location and I don't have remote power-on capability. Is 
there some software command that can reset disk controller (the blu-ray 
writer is the only thing connected to it)?

 I've just rebooted in an effort to get the screen lock back, but its

 Could it be any of these please that were very recently installed from
 an upgrade;-

  xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.13.0-6 = 2:2.13.0-7
 xsltproc 1.1.26-6 = 1.1.26-6+squeeze1

 i'm just clutching at straws, brain storming and trying to fix it.

Have you checked your Gnome settings, sometimes they get reset to

Installer and GPT partitons

2012-08-03 Thread Stephan Seitz


Hi!

When I installed a test VM using debian-wheezy-DI-a1-amd64-netinst.iso 
I used the export mode and manual partitioning.


I chosed GPT and installed grub into the master boot record. No warnings 
or errors occured, and the system booted without problems.


After issuing „dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc” grub displayed warnings that it 
could not embed itself into the master boot record and would use an 
unsafe mode for stage 2 which still worked.


According to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BIOS_Boot_partition I have to 
create a small partition with the bios_grub flag if I use GPT instead of 
MBR.


So I installed my test VM againg, but the installer doesn’t offer me the 
choice to give a partition the bios_grub flag. I used parted afterwards, 
and „dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc” didn’t produce any warning anymore.


Is this something that is serious for Wheezy or simply a nice-to-have 
wishlist?

Debian: SIOCSIFFLAGS: Cannot assign requested address when adding extra ips to an interface

2012-08-03 Thread Tóth Tibor Péter

Hello!
I have some problem when I'm trying to add an extra IP to an interface.

My config:
# cat /etc/network/interfaces
auto lo
auto eth0
auto eth0:0
auto eth0:1
iface lo inet loopback
allow-hotplug eth0

iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.0.10

netmask 255.255.255.0

iface eth0:1 inet static
address 192.168.0.101
netmask 255.255.255.0

#ifconfig eth0:0 up
SIOCSIFFLAGS: Cannot assign requested address

The strange thing is that sometimes works, sometimes not.

if I do this way, it works every time:
#ifconfig eth0:0 192.168.0.100 netmask 255.255.255.0

What cause the SIOCSIFFLAGS error messaeg?
It exists on Debian 5 and Debian 6 as well.

Have a look at XMPP. The Jingle extension allows Voice and Video
conversations and the Proxy65 extension allows file transfers. As with
OCS, you can run your own server for access only by office staff.

Prosody is a good server to start with, but ejabberd is somewhat more
powerful and scalable. In terms of client, any XMPP client will do

 maybe it's the cause for your momentary misbehaviour, maybe it's what

 definitively, it triggers the add mailserver starttls problem.
 I removed the line completely, and icedove behaves as designed. no more
 error with the starttls-problem, but still opening links in
 x-www-browser correctly.

 so, it was a leftover from a try on figuring out how to solve, which
 caused the next error... :(

 hope you have luck with the systemsettings.

 Gunter, let me verify what your original problem was with icedove.  Were
 you unable to get to iceweasel when you clicked on a link  in icedove or
 were you able to get to iceweasel home page but not the actual link you
 were trying to open?  I appreciate your comments and want to get this
 darned thing fixed but need to know I'm working on the right thing.  I
 can get to iceweasel but I always get the home page.  I don't get the
 specific link I'm trying for.

 Oh, and I figued out why I did not see that actual line as mentioned.  I
 was looking at prefs.js from the command line using cat prefs.js.  When
 looking at the file in that manner all you get are those which have
 content and are marked true and I didn't find out how to change it
 until I went to the config editor button in preferences-Advanced-
 General-config editor.  So much fun.  :-)

Re: GNU find: print0 and -type arguments

  0 ./file%
  martin@merkaba:~/Zeit/find-Test
 
 It is inconsistent to mix -print0 with -print and -printf.  Just use
 one or the other consistently.

Well I wanted to know which action find uses in each case, had I used -
print in all the case, I could not tell a difference.

  Which is the same as without braces:
  
  martin@merkaba:~/Zeit/find-Test find -type d -print -o -name file
  -printf %s %p -o -name anotherfile -print0 .
  ./anotherfile./dir
  0 ./file%
 
 Yes.
 
  Now I am wondering about the order.
  
  Why does find print another file before .dir and file after
  another file?
 
 You seem to be missing the basic operation of find.  The find program
 iterates across ever file and processes arguments from left to right
 for that file.  As long as the action returns true then find continues
 to process arguments from left to right.  If any argument returns
 false then processing stops for that file.  Find then proceeds to the
 next file and restarts processing arguments for the next file from
 left to right.

Yes, my understanding was find would be doing one run for each action, 
thus first dearch for »-type d« and print it, then search again for »-name 
file« and print it and so on, but then it needed to scan the directory 
three times instead of just once.

   find -type d -print -o -name file -printf %s %p -o -name
 anotherfile -print0
 
 For every file find processes it walks across the argument list.  For
 your example arguments it is something like this:
 
   for each file do
 if type d then
   print
 else
   if name file then
 printf %s %p
   else
 if name anotherfile then
   print0
 end
   end
 end
   end
 
 Also 'find' walks through the directory in the order of the entries in
 the list.  It doesn't sort the entries first.  This means that they
 are in an arbitrary order.  They might appear in any order but the
 order will be repeatable for that particular directory.

Your explaination perfectly makes sense.

So I teach people this stuff and upto now didn´t think deeply about the 
exact order. I knew that the action follows the search criteria, but I 
never thought about the case with mutiple actions on one line.

So another interesting use case:

martin@merkaba:~/Zeit/find-Test find -printf %s %p\n -print -exec ls -
ld {} \; -delete
0 ./anotherfile
./anotherfile
-rw-r--r-- 1 martin martin 0 Aug  2 19:57 ./anotherfile
4096 ./dir
./dir
drwxr-xr-x 2 martin martin 4096 Aug  2 19:56 ./dir
0 ./file
./file
-rw-r--r-- 1 martin martin 0 Aug  2 19:56 ./file
4096 .
.
drwxr-xr-x 2 martin martin 4096 Aug  3 15:27 .

martin@merkaba:~/Zeit/find-Test find
.
martin@merkaba:~/Zeit/find-Test

So find execute all four actions for each search result and all the 
results are gone then.

Nice ;)

All results except for the current directory »find-Test«, which the -
delete option didn´t touch. The manpage is not clear. It writes about 
deleting files, but it »-delete« also removes empty directories. And it 
leaves the current directory alone although it is in the search results.

Re: proprieties of termios are not saved!!

abdelkader belahcene wrote:
 I wrote a program which have to change proprieties
 for the serial port  via the termios commands, but it not saved.
 When I ran the program it gave the old values then after changes
 gave the new, that seems correct,   but when  i ran again i got
 same value,  Normally I had to get the last value,  i.e :  the new value
 of the previous running 

If I recall correctly the kernel has a built in default for device
attributes.  The kernel resets the device to this internal setting
every time the device is opened for the first time.  After a device is
opened and a file handle pointing to it then it may be modified.  This
modification is maintained for as long as the file handle is open.
When the file handle is closed then the kernel resets the attributes.

Due to this programs that open serial ports typically open and then
set the desired termio attributes.  That is normal.  This setting of
termio attributes is done every time the program runs and opens the
device.

 Compteur# ./oo
 Old cflag=1cb2
 New cflag=0cbd
 Compteur#

The kernel notices that the reference count on /dev/ttyS0 has returned
to zero and therefore resets the device attributes.

 Compteur# ./oo
 Old cflag=1cb2 // value here should be 0cbd
 New cflag=0cbd

This second run has no memory of the first run.  This is expected.

 #include stdio.h
 #include unistd.h
 #include fcntl.h
 #include stdlib.h
 #include sys/io.h
 #include termios.h

I see you including sys/io.h but I don't see why.  I think you
should avoid sys/io.h if you don't specifically need it.  It would
be more portable without it.

 int main(){
   int fd=0;
   fd = open(/dev/ttyS0, O_RDWR | O_NOCTTY | O_NDELAY);
   if (fd  0) {  printf(open error );

The error message is missing an ending newline.

  printf(open error\n);

You may want to look into using perror(3) or strerror(3) for more
specific error messages.  Such as:

  perror(open);

   exit(-1); }

Using exit(-1) is out of the valid range.  The parent will only
receive the lower eight bits of the value.  Therefore the valid range
for exit is 0-255.  The functional internally does 'status  0377'
truncating to the lower eight bits.  Most programs by convention use 1
for an error and not 255.  Using -1 to me feels wrong because it
doesn't represent the actual value that will be seen by the parent
when the parent calls wait(2) to get the exit code of the child.

I suggest using either:

  exit(1);

or using the macro

  exit(EXIT_FAILURE);

Either would be okay.  See the standards docs for more information:

  http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/functions/exit.html

   struct termios my_termios;
   tcgetattr(fd, my_termios);
   printf(old cflag=%08x\n, my_termios.c_cflag);
   cfsetospeed(my_termios, B9600);
   printf(old cflag=%08x\n, my_termios.c_cflag);
   exit(0);
 }

A very minor point is that you have defined 'int main()' to return an
integer.  But your program never does.  Personally I use the macro
with exit for failures with exit(EXIT_FAILURE); and in main() to
indicate a successful exit I use return 0;.  Returning a value from
main() is the same as exit()'ing with that value.  It is the same
thing.  But if 'int main()' is going to declare that main returns an
integer then I think main should return an integer.  Otherwise we
would declare 'void main()' to not return anything instead.

  It is inconsistent to mix -print0 with -print and -printf.  Just use
  one or the other consistently.
 
 Well I wanted to know which action find uses in each case, had I used -
 print in all the case, I could not tell a difference.

In that case I suggest using -printf throughout.  Put an identifying
remark in the printf format string associated with that action.
For example:

  $ find . -type d -printf %p due to -type d\n -o -name file -printf %p due 
to -name file\n -o -name anotherfile -printf %p due to -name anotherfile\n
  . due to -type d
  ./file due to -name file
  ./anotherfile due to -name anotherfile
  ./dir due to -type d

How is that?

 Yes, my understanding was find would be doing one run for each action, 
 thus first dearch for »-type d« and print it, then search again for »-name 
 file« and print it and so on, but then it needed to scan the directory 
 three times instead of just once.

Correct.

 So I teach people this stuff and upto now didn´t think deeply about the 
 exact order. I knew that the action follows the search criteria, but I 
 never thought about the case with mutiple actions on one line.

The argument list is a small program that is interpreted for each file
entry.  You write the argument list as you would write a program.

 So another interesting use case:
 
 martin@merkaba:~/Zeit/find-Test find -printf %s %p\n -print -exec ls -ld 
 {} \; -delete

My first thought was ew.. due to the -delete being mixed in with
the recursive operation and without any restriction.  That is
basically the same as 'rm -rf .' and feels very dangerous to me.
(Which of course won't delete '.' but will delete everything else
below it.)  It could delete a lot of files very quickly!

 martin@merkaba:~/Zeit/find-Test find
 .
 martin@merkaba:~/Zeit/find-Test

Yes.

 So find execute all four actions for each search result and all the 
 results are gone then.

Yes.  Each action returned true.  The print actions always return
true.  The exec action will pass back the exit code of the process.
If any return code is not true then the processing left to right over
the argument list will stop.

 Nice ;)

As long as that is what you wanted!  :-)

 All results except for the current directory »find-Test«, which the -
 delete option didn´t touch. The manpage is not clear. It writes about 
 deleting files, but it »-delete« also removes empty directories. And it 
 leaves the current directory alone although it is in the search results.

Of course '.' won't be removed since it can't be.  This is the same as
with 'rm -rf .' too.  (However I see that recent 'rm' doesn't allow
that use nad prints an error and exits.  Probably a good safe behavior.)

I personally only use -delete with a specific restriction such as with
a -type f or -name file1 or other type of specific targeting.  I avoid
having find recursively walk down directories and also have -delete
recursively walk down directories too.

It also feels wrong that it is recursively deleting directories that
find will in the future recurse down.  Due to buffering I think this
won't be visible with small directories.  But with large directories I
believe (but did not test) that it will produce an error when find
tries to read a directory that has been previously deleted in passing.

Using -delete automatically enables -depth.  Therefore the order of
file processing will be the order find would use with 'find . -depth'.
This is done to avoid trying to delete a directory that still contains
files.  Using -depth gives the possibility that the directory will be
emptied first.

  $ mkdir dir
  $ touch dir/otherfile
  $ find . -type d -print -delete
  ./dir
  find: cannot delete `./dir': Directory not empty
  .

  $ find . -print
  .
  ./dir
  ./dir/otherfile

  $ find . -depth -print
  ./dir/otherfile
  ./dir
  .

 The problem with webcam can be of a different nature, you will have to

 you can try to get video from a different application such as Ekiga.

  The understanding I got from reading Roger's post was that if you are

  paradigm because it **is considered superior/more robust**.
 
 That's what CUPS developers seem to claim (?) but having used PS
 printers and PS backend as default for all these years, I'm a bit
 reluctant about grandiloquent wordings with no more technical proofs on
 the superiority of one on the proposed systems over the other.
 
 If you want technical proof, please download the specs for both from
 Adobe's website and compare them.  Both are freely downloadable.
   http://partners.adobe.com/public/developer/en/ps/PLRM.pdf
   http://www.adobe.com/devnet/acrobat/pdfs/pdf_reference_1-7.pdf
 The wikipedia pages for both are also reasonably informative.

Specifications are not a proof that describe something is better or worse 
per se, pros and cons have to be analyzed separately and also based on 
real use-cases other than over a white paper.

 The fact is, PDF *is* the continuation of PostScript.  

Yes, I know all that. What I wonder is whether my printer needs all of 
the PDF additions (my eBook reader for sure, but my printer...).

 It's just an evolved form of PostScript in a binary format.  

Evolution is not always for good ;-)

 More accurately, both formats are implementations of the Adobe imaging
 model; until PDF 1.4, both of these formats implemented the same set
 of primitives. PDF 1.4 and later implement new additions to the imaging
 model, while PostScript will not see any new releases.  If you look at
 all the drawing primitives contained within PostScript, they are all
 right there in PDF. If you take any PostScript document, you can
 execute it and transform all the drawing commands to their PDF
 equivalent. That's why it's trivial to to the conversion.  The converse
 is not always true: because PDF is a *superset* of the PostScript
 drawing model, and so you potentially lose information going the other
 way, because you might have to convert a single PDF primitive into
 multiple PostScript primitives which only /approximate/ the PDF.

And how it translates all of the above into a PDF filter is better than 
PS? I mean, I need facts, numbers, comparison tests, user-case 
examples... not nice wording :-)
 
 You can read a nice overview of the history and relationship between the
 two here:
   http://www.prepressure.com/postscript/basics/history
 
 I hope from the above you'll understand that is indisputable that 1) PDF
 has a more technically sophisticated imaging model 

Can't tell. I'm sure PDF will add some nice features but also drawbacks 
when it comes to printing.

 2) PDF is the de-facto standard for professional document printing 

It's the most compatible/easier to send file format, but the best... 
well, that will depend on the professional you ask ;-)

Also, careful with the election of the words. MS Word's .doc is also a 
de-facto standard document format for office automation and we know 
that's just an empty statement, right?

 3) PostScript is no longer being developed, and PDF is its successor
 Moving to a PDF based printing workflow is an improvement due to being
 technically superior and the logical way to go.

Good to know. When I have to decide the buy for a new printer I will 
ensure it does also support PDF directly but until that moment comes, I 
will still use what my printers do understand.

Of course security is a concern. Otherwise I'd spend a lot of money on an

I think the output of dmesg is telling me my driver does not support the cards:

However, since this is a desktop system and not a production server, Wheezy is 
an option that I had already wondered about. In fact, I already had downloaded 
it before posting. Normally I exhaust all options before asking for help, but 
with my schedule this and next week I opted to see if there was an easy 
solution that I had just overlooked.

I will probably come in tomorrow to install Wheezy, and I will report back.

choice to give a partition the bios_grub flag. I used parted afterwards, and
„dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc” didn’t produce any warning anymore.

Is this something that is serious for Wheezy or simply a nice-to-have
wishlist?

Both the squeeze and wheezy installers allow you to create a biosboot
partition. I think that it's called Reserved

It's too bad that parted calls it bios_grub (GNU publishes both grub
and parted...), gdisk calls it biosboot partition (as does kickstart),
and d-i calls it Reserved (I think that it's Reserved BIOS
Boot Area but I haven't seen this menu in a while.)

That info is not enough to identify your hardware properly :-)

Run these command and put here the ouput:

cat /proc/asound/cards

 sound card. Though mic work in laptop built-in test suite (called on key

 - this is complete its output.
 
 Please share any ideas on what can be done to make mic. working.

It can be that sound card is not being properly detected and you need to pass 
the model= parameter to the ALSA config file. Depending on the codec and your 
kernel verion, you can edit the alsa configuration file and append to the
options line a value that matches with your sound card hardware settings:

http://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/sound/alsa/HD-Audio-Models.txt

It can also be that your sound card chipset is too new for your kernel or alsa 
version but that would be strange given that your're on wheezy. Was the mic 
detected before or has never worked?

Help with KVM/libvirt/win2008r2. Guest loosing time.

2012-08-03 Thread William Thompson

I have a Win 2008 R2 guest running under KVM controlled by libvirt.  The
guest is loosing time.  I have the clock open on the guest and the seconds
change once every 2-5 seconds.  The guest was started at 11:45:58.  As of
13:10:30 the guest's time is 12:03:46.

I have tried various things that I found on google.  Unfortunately, the
sites I found do not work for me.

I've tried setting the machine type to pc-0.13 (default pc-1.1), -no-hpet,
-no-kvm-pit-reinjection, -rtc clock=host, -rtc driftfix=slew, different CPU
options and combinations of those.

Here is the KVM line that libvirt used:

Strange network activity after updates

2012-08-03 Thread Paul Zimmerman

Today I downloaded a large group of updates, including Open Office and some 
dns-related utilities. Once they were applied, some strange network activity 
started on my machine. It keeps sending and receiving about 10-14k per second 
but I cannot find any programs that would be doing anything on the network. 
Trying to figure out what is going on, I installed iftop and it says there is a 
constant connection to 239.255.255.250 and various transient connections to 
sites like vc-in-f106-1e100.net -- which turns out to be owned by Google -- and 
other sites like something called activeminds.net. I know the constant 
connection is a multicast address, but what is this other stuff? It looks like 
something is broken/misconfigured or an outright hack of the Debian repository 
has occurred and many Debian systems are now part of a botnet. My Debian box is 
staying offline until I find out what is going on.

You probably want guestmount or xmount to mount, using FUSE, the image on the

 I remember that I have to specify nfsv3 on the client/nfsmount side to

On the client, add nfsvers=3 to the options of your nfs map.

OR

On the server, add --no-nfs-version 4 to RPCMOUNTDOPTS in
