Re: technical mail setup question (and a little of what was: calling Philip Hands)
[Please CC me, I don't follow debian-user] attention now (especially those of you advocating using your isp's relay.) to a very real technical question in debian-user (please follow-up to his question there): Allan M. Wind has a local LAN, I have a dynamic IP, both of us have the problem that the hostname that our local Sendmail is telling our ISP's SMTP relays is not a resolvable hostname. The relay declines to do the transaction. Solution? Is it during the HELO (EHLO) negotiation that the remote system rejects you (in which case I'd consider it broken) or does it reject your MAIL FROM: ? In the latter case you need to fix your mailer to use an envelope with a resovable domain (if you don't do this you will not see any error mails). If you are using sendmail with the m4 config files, you need to use FEATURE(masquerade_envelope). For other mailers, consult your local guru. /Anders -- -- Of course I'm crazy, but that doesn't mean I'm wrong.

Re: As user: swap capslock/cntrl?
How do I swap the capslock and control keys on a standard PC keyboard as a user only? (not as root) Under X, you do it with xmodmap. To quote the xmodmap manpage: One of the more irritating differences between keyboards is the location of the Control and Shift Lock keys. A common use of xmodmap is to swap these two keys as follows: ! ! Swap Caps_Lock and Control_L ! remove Lock = Caps_Lock remove Control = Control_L keysym Control_L = Caps_Lock keysym Caps_Lock = Control_L add Lock = Caps_Lock add Control = Control_L So, stick those lines in a file, and run xmodmap on that file. I think you can swap them in the console as well by using loadkeys. I'm afraid I can't offer you any help as to how to go about doing it though.

Re: eight_bit console
I'm using Debain Linux and do most of my work in console mode. I use us keymap and i wonder what i have to do to be able to write eight_bit characters. In X alt is bound to meta and that works just fine, but in console-mode holding in alt while writing seems to have no effect whatsover. The meta keys in the console can be set to either prefix the next key with ESC or set the 8th bit. You can select which behaviour they should exhibit with the setmetamode command.

Re: Dumb X terminals
We (A high school) just received a bunch of 486/66 Compaqs. The idea is to turn them in to dumb X terminals (running StarOffice, and Netscape). They have small hard drives (200mb), 16 md of RAM, 3 Comm Ethernet cards, and vga (svga?) + Monitors. I was thinking that the base system could sit on the drives, and maybe some of the X files (hehe, sorry). But when xdm fires up X, I would like it to connect to our Linux server, (not the local machine). Is this possible, can some give me a few pointers. Yes, that should definitely be possible (and all the stuff you need should fit on the disk as well). What you need to install is xbase (unfortunatley there are some files in xbase that are required to run the X server), and the appropriate xserver for your card. You need not run xdm on these machines, instead have it start the X server at boot (adding it to /etc/inittab is probably easies) and have it ask for a session from your server (you probably want to run xfs on the server and have the xserver fetch it's fonts from that). X -query yourserverbox -fp tcp/yourserverbox:7100 should do what you need if xfs and xdm are running on the server. Regards, /Anders -- -- Of course I'm crazy, but that doesn't mean I'm wrong.

Hello, I would lke to know if I can install the Debian Linux distribution on an AlphaServer AS800 5/400 (the processor isa DECChip 21164A-2). Yes, you can.

There is also a list of systems - nicknames so you can figure out what kernel get (your machine is a Noritake and since it's a 5/xxx you need teh noritake-s-5 kernel).

Re: SCSI Controller
I'm in the middle of getting a new PII (300MHz +) system. I'd like to know what SCSI controller should I get for the best performance and supporter driver on Linux: 1. BusLogic 2. Adaptec UW A. Onboard (which Motherboard) B. PCI Card The Adaptec controllers have been flakey on Linux (though it may change as Adaptec has finally started giving out specs). With the current drivers Adaptec 2940 (aic7xxx) cards get confused under high load. The BusLogic MultiMaster BT958 controllers run quite well under Linux and (from my experience) are quite a bit faster than the Adaptec controllers. Onboard or as a PCI card rarely makes any difference, as the 'on bord' controllers are just the PCI card soldered directly on to the motherboard. Another contoller that seem to be working nicely are the Symbios Logic 53c875 based cards such as Asus's SC875. Regards, /Anders -- -- Of course I'm crazy, but that doesn't mean I'm wrong.

Re: lexmark printers
There are some pretty good deals on Lexmark printers at my University. They use PCL5 and PS emulation. Anybody have any experience with Lexmark's emulation and Linux ? I've heard that the emulation isn't perfect. Since they don't support Linux, they are not likely to offer any solutions. Any one come across any notable problems with the printer output? Actually, I've found their technical people quite helpful (Ok, I was using Solaris at the time, but I don't recall actually telling them that). There is complete documentation of their parallel-port protocol (NPAP) available at their FTP site, should you decide that just dumping your files out the parallell port isn't good enough. Their PS emulation is not really worse than anybody elses (I've seen far worse postscript interpreters). In general, I find their Optra line to be quite decent printers.

Re: libc6 Netscape form problems
I am running the libc6 version of Netscape 4.05 and am experiencing some strang problems when entering text into text fields. Something keeps appending random binary bits to the end of the strings and it really screws things up. Sometimes it isn't even apparent in the field and other times it is. This is really fun when trying to order things on the web!! As an example I tried placing an order for 2 items and it somehow converted it to 21!!! Yikes! Or as another example I entered free source into yahoo's search field and it said that I had entered, free sourceü^¾¤-?ü^¾¤-?h=5. What gives. I suppose I could re-install the libc5 version of Netscape but if Netscape is not the problem I don't want to download the 11+M over my 31.2k dialup. It's a bug in Netscape, however there is a cure. If you set LD_PRELOAD to /lib/libBrokenLocale.so.1 the problems go away. If you are using the Debian wrapper, the easiest way to get it set is to edit /usr/bin/X11/netscape (it's a script). Look for the folloing section and add the export LD_PRELOAD= line: # # Set some env vars to make things work better # #LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/netscape:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH export LD_PRELOAD=/lib/libBrokenLocale.so.1 MOZILLA_HOME=/usr/lib/netscape NPX_PLUGIN_PATH=$HOME/.netscape/plugins:/usr/local/lib/netscape/plugins:/usr/lib /netscape/plugins display=$DISPLAY export MOZILLA_HOME NPX_PLUGIN_PATH display if you are not using the wrapper, alias netscape to run env LD_PRELOAD=/lib/libBrokenLocale.so.1 netscape HTH /Anders -- -- Of course I'm crazy, but that doesn't mean I'm wrong.

Re: Linked against libc5 AND libc6?
Hmm ... ok, that makes sense. When I do an ldd on erpcd on a libc5 system it only says it's linked against libc5 ... and libdb is linked against libc6 on hamm systems. tesla:/usr/annex # ldd erpcd libdb.so.2 = /lib/libdb.so.2 libc.so.5 = /lib/libc.so.5 tesla:/usr/annex # cat /etc/debian_version 1.3 Any way out of this mess? I don't have a libc5 version of libdb 2 ... I had to make a rather ugly hack to get this to run on the bo system :) Well, you could take the libdb.so.2 you built on the bo system and stick it in /usr/lib/libc5-compat on the hamm system (don't forget to run ldconfig after). The loader is intelligent in the way that if there are two copies of the library, it will link in the one which uses the same version of libc as the binary. Then perhaps you should petition someone to do a libc5 version of DB 2 for the oldlibs section. Regards, /Anders -- -- Of course I'm crazy, but that doesn't mean I'm wrong.

Re: Edit Program
Could anyone tell me the magic keystrokes for copy and paste? Left mouse button marks and copies, middle (both if you only have two and are emulating a 3-button mouse) mouse button pastes. Most X programs follow this convention, as well as the Linux console if you run gpm. Emacs keystrokes are (many other apps use these too): mark: C-SPC or C-@ cut: C-w copy: M-w paste: C-y (C is control key, M is meta or alt key, it can also be emulated by pressing escape first and then the indicated key). The emacs mark command sets the start of the region to cut or copy, the cursor (point in emacs-speak) is the end of the region. On Fri, 10 Apr 1998, Nathan C.

Re: Xterm ALT key
Please excuse my unfamiliarity with the nomenclature of the keyboard. I think this is an FAQ, but I haven't grokked the previous threads. I am posting to ask why xterm persists in crummy handling of ALT so that bash readline is a pain, or at least, not equivalent with bash on a terminal. This is the case in jed, for example. On a term, I can type \M-x using the ALT key, but in and Xterm it's not so, I have to hit ESC then x. The shell readline keys are also not working right with ALT. Rxvt has gone through evolutions over the post two years in handling of ALT. These past few months it's been ok, but over the past two years, this behavior has come and gone. What will I have to do to get xterm to do the right thing? To have xterms send ESC+7bit-char instead of 8bit-char, add this to your ~/.Xresources file: XTerm*eightBitInput: false It tells xterm not to accept characters with the 8th (or meta) bit set, but instead strip that bit and preceede the character with the ESC character.
