troubles with `kernel-patch-lpp'
Hello All, I have just build a buid a new kernel with the patch LPP and configured my Debian boxe as suggestd in the document file. Every thing look find, exept the last stage: the picture stay. Apparently the command line `echo 101 /proc/progress ' in the suggested `/etc/init.d/rc' script does not work. I tried the command by hand, `/proc/progress' stood unchanged. Any idea ?

router + laptop: naive question

Yes, but it is completely dependent upon the router, so nothing really related to you computer. Check the router's documentation/manufacturer.

Re: wireless + wired + dhcp +... : unproper default route
Thanks for your reply. Matt Foster wrote: Quoting Jerome BENOIT ([EMAIL PROTECTED]): Thanks for your reply: fellowing the below advice I wrote an adquate script that I put in the directory /etc/network/if-post-down.d to set a default route when it is missing: route add default gw default ip According to the man page we can specify the Iface, instead to let the kernel to chose for us, by adding something as `dev eth0': I have tried it, but each time the default route seems to be blocked after a while (except when I set the kernel favorite Iface). My basic idea was to write after some basic checks: route del default route add default gw default ip dev fastest connected iface but as I sait I got into troubles: I guess I missed something: any idea ? Thanks in advance, Jerome This may just be me being dense, I was asking for a hint. Please note that I am not (yet) familiar with network stuff. but why the 'if-post-down.d' directory, as opposed to the 'if-up.d' directory? Surely it would be more logical to change the routing tables when a new interface comes up? in my /etc/network/interface I wrote iface eth0 inet dhcp iface wlan0 inet dhcp wireless_option value so the routing table is managed by the dhcp manchinerie. This work fine when only one iface is involved, but troubles emerge when the two ifaces are involved. For the post-down why, please see below. What kind of troubles ddi you have with the route exactly? Up to now I encoutered two cases: 1] my wireless iface (wlan0) and my wired iface (eth0) are plugged (my automation scheme used ifplugd): I can do basic stuff. Now if the iface that hold the default route is unplugged, then the default route is removed by ifdown (called by ifplugd). In other words I have no more default route, hence my post-down action to set up the default route (when the other card is still present): route add default gw default ip This just mimics what /etc/dhcp3/dhclient-script does. And it works. 2] My second point is that the choice of the default route iface is done by the kernel since the above command contains no `dev' option. So as my wired connection is far faster than my wireless connection, I want the eth0 iface as my default interface when possible: to do so, I try the fellowing: route del default route add default gw default ip dev eth0 and to check the routing table: ping ping.symantec.com If the default iface was eth0 before the `del' action, the pinging is ok; but if the default was `wlan0', the pinging is ok for a short time, and then it is lost. Note that for my wlan0 iface, I have to used the fresh ndiswrapper driver, so may be the trouble come from there.

You can't get every option at the same time. For example, you can't have ethernet support as module, then make the tulip driver built-in. Also some features require other features. For example you must choose to enable auto-network configuration (bootp/dhcp) at boot time in order to have the option of choosing root-over-NFS. In general see what features that particular option might require and select it.

The purpose of the make menuconfig process is to create a current .config file that the system uses for the rest of the compile process. If there is an EXISTING /usr/src/linux/.config file, it will use it as a starting point for your configuration. At the end you will be asked if you want to save the new config, and if you say yes, the original /usr/src/linux/.config is re-named to .oldconfig and a new .config file is created. If you start off with a clean kernel source tree, it will NOT have an existing .config file, hence the fall-back to the arch/i386/defconfig file placed there by the kernel maintainers. This is a very CONSERVATIVE file that will NOT prompt you for any options considered experimental by the kernel maintainers. If you look at this file with a text editor, you will see that CONFIG_EXPERMENTAL is not set. This provides a very basic or bare-bones starting point and probably is your problem. The RTL8139 module selection only shows up when you choose the prompt for experimental... option under the main Code Maturity Level section at the start of the menu process. Turn it on first, and I bet you will see the RTL8139 module option listed later on in the Network Devices section. The .config file for your current operating Debian kernel is stored in /boot as config-kernel version. I would use this as your starting point for the compilation, as most of the things that will mess you up are already taken care of. If you only want to make some minor changes over your current setup, then this is the way to go. Here is what I would do: 1. In your /usr/src/linux directory remove any existing .config file. You can probably do this by running make clean and/or make mrproper. You should probably do this to remove any stale files from previous compiles and make sure you have a clean source tree. 2. Copy the /boot/config-X file to /usr/src/linux/.config. (Note that is a DOT CONFIG in the /usr/src/linux directory!!) 3. Run your favorite config program to select/modify the options you want.

Hello Patrick, Lachlan Patrick wrote: Lachlan Patrick wrote: Hi, I'm looking for LaTeX or alsaplayer. Anyone have any idea which Debian 3.1r1 CD these packages might be on? Loki Thanks to all who replied. One other question: is there an up-to-date Printing How-To somewhere? I need to get my HP non-postscript inkjet working. Short answer: Install CUPS and its friends: it should be Ok. hth, Jerome PS: see www.miktex.org to compose [La]TeX document on Window$ computer. FYI: I sent an email a week or two ago to this list which was somewhat wordy but did explain that I need CDs specifically. But I got no replies, probably because it was too wordy, so I decided next time to send a much shorter, more direct set of questions. Sorry for the lack of context that time around! For those curious about why I need CDs... here's the wordy explanation. My Debian machine is at home. It's not on the net, so I needed to install from CD. I'm typing this email from my work PC, which I can't mess with, so I don't have Debian installed on it, so I can't directly use aptitude to download packages. I'm not a Debian guru; I just prefer the environ- ment to Windows. In my spare time, I've written a novel on it, using vi, LaTeX, ps2pdf (and python). But much of my hardware didn't work, e.g. I wanted to use the CD-drive to do scheduled backups, and to be able to print, but I was using an ancient version of Debian which didn't have all the drivers or kernel modules. So I was stuck with a dual-boot Windows solution, which was not ideal. I'd rather not need to boot into Windows ever! I decided to freshly install a more recent version of Debian. So, I downloaded ISO images, and just created the first 2 Debian CDs. This proved to be more than adequate to install a functional base desktop system in under 2GB of disk, but a few things were still missing. I didn't want to create all of the other 12 CDs just to get a few packages, so I thought I'd ask what CDs they are on. Although I can use the web at work to discover package dependencies, I didn't know how to discover which CDs those packages are on. In my case, the answer seems to be disk 3, and the link http://www.debian.org/CD/jigdo-cd/#search lets you search for specific files. So I now have a two stage process I can use to find all the dependencies, then find the CDs they are on. (Since my PC's apt database only knows about the first two CDs which it has been exposed to, it had no way of telling me to insert CD 3 when I want LaTeX. Indeed, there was no way inside aptitude to select LaTeX... it's not listed yet.) I didn't know this online search facility existed, so I think that will solve my problems. Thank you to one and all, and I hope this has satisfied any curiosity.

I would first try to disable bridging and configure udev correctly for the individual devices. I think you should comment out one of the eth0 lines in your z25_persistent-net.rules. Then you have to find out the correct hardware addresses for both cards and put them in the appropriate lines in this file. If the bridge is still active you might be able to get the addresses with brctl showmacs br1, but I don't know how to reliably tell which card is the wireless one. If the bridge is disabled you should be able to use a combination of ip link, ifconfig, iwconfig, udevinfo -a -p /class/net/eth0 and udevinfo -a -p /class/net/wlan0_temp to identify the HW addresses unambiguously. After you set up the persistent rules file correctly you should get eth0 and wlan0 after a reboot. (Note: Some tools might report the hexadecimal numbers in the HW address using uppercase letters [A-F]; for the udev rules you need to use lowercase [a-f].) Once it works for the individual devices you can activate the bridging again. If this screws things up it is probably appropriate to file a bug against udev. -- Jerome BENOIT jgmbenoit_at_mailsnare_dot_net -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Re: ntpdate troubles
So I would guess this means that you cannot get to the machine you are ntpdate'ing against. You showed that it worked when you did it against ntp.apple.com. I assume that it also works when you debug it by hand? If so, I would guess that Joris' suggestion is a good one: Joris on my machine, I haven't got ntpdate to work out the Joris hostnames of any ntp server. I just pinged them, copied Joris the ip's and dpkg-reconfigure'd ntp to look for the Joris ip's. It has worked ever since. I have just tried ntpdate 17.254.0.26 and I got exactly the same error message (17.254.0.26 is the ip btained via ping for ntp.apple.com) Very strange ! -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
