El caso es que he intentado instalar KDE 1.1 que venía en PC-Actual de Marzo, viene tanto en formato .deb como en formato .rpm, el caso es que en formato deb no viene la librería qt pero sí en formatao rpm (qt-1.42-4) asi que la debianice con alien y luego la instalé, pero cuando intento instalar kdesupport*.deb me dice que le hace falta qt1g 1.42 o superior ¿¿??, tambien se queja de alguna otra librería (libstde++2.9, ...). Me he leido todos los redme que he podido ¿Será que el loader fue avisado que instalaste las nuevas bibliotecas? Te recomiendo hacer : - Comprovar que existe una entrada en el archivo /etc/ld.so.conf indicando el camino donde se encuentran las bibliotecas qt*. Si no hubise, en una nueva linea pon el camino. - Como root haces : # ldconfig Con esto las nuevas bibliotecas seran registradas por el loader.

El lanzamiento se ha retrasado a la semana próxima, principalmente debido a problemas de última hora en la red de réplicas FTP. Al cambiar enlaces simbólicos por los ficheros correspondientes hubo una pequeña descoordinación entre el servidor maestro y las réplicas, con el resultado final de que la versión de Slink para ciertas arquitecturas, creo que Alpha y Sparc, estaba hecha unos zorros en la mayoría de las réplicas. Así que conviene dejar pasar unos días para que se vuelvan a sincronizar. (Hemos hecho honor de nuevo a una vieja tradición de Debian. No puede haber versión publicada sin que se vaya a la porra alguna máquina importante en nuestra red de réplicas). Como el desajuste se produjo a lo largo del fin de semana, (las puñeteras máquinas no descansan los domingos...) y encima con el lío de la LinuxWorld Expo, las noticias llegaron demasiado tarde a la dirección de Debian (nuestro director andaba viajando de Holanda a San Francisco, unas 24 horas de avión y aeropuertos). Por eso no se ha informado del retraso hasta hoy por la mañana. (Y nosotros celebrando anoche como si tal cosa). O:*) Aprovechando el retraso incorporaremos dos correcciones, una para el bug de seguridad que ha aparecido este fin de semana en el procmail (también es inoportuno el condenado) y otra para unos problemillas que tiene el dpkg cuando el superusuario tiene definido el locale como algo distinto de C o POSIX (lo cual por otro lado sigue siendo una práctica peligrosa en cualquier Linux porque puede producir efectos no deseados en otros programas/demonios. Se admiten informes de error y/o parches). :-) O sea, que no hay mal que por bien no venga, y tendremos publicación el próximo martes 9 de marzo.

IP-aliasing
I have a one gateway with a 3c905b (Boomerang) running 2.2.2 just fine. When I use ifconfig to alias an ip it works no problem. On a different machine, an HP Vectra, with a 3c905b? (Cyclone) and the IP-aliasing works only with 2.0 kernels. Weird. I have compiled 2.2.2 for this Vectra 6 times with variuos kernel configs to try and narrow the problem. No luck. Then I copied my .config from the Gateway and compiled, no go. I also just copied the kernel image to the Vectra, no go. Anyone have an idea why it would work on one machine and not another? I haven't swapped the NIC's because my box is the Gateway and I don't want to lose my stability. Selfish I guess. Anyways, does anyone have a suggestion?

Brosemer([EMAIL PROTECTED]): I'm having problems with samba 2.0 (the .deb in potato) that I was hoping someone could help me with. My win95 box cannot be seen by smbclient, and my linux box cannot be seen by my win95 box. Both can ping each other, however, so I don't think it's an ether problem. #1 RTFM samba-2.0.2/source/web/diagnose.c !!! This looks useful, I'll spend the time to find out how it wants to be compiled sometime. Shhh, boy did I screw up! It was supposed to say DIAGNOSE.TXT! Sorry!!! Cay you ping the Linux box from Win95 using both the IP address and the machine name? If not check win95 hosts lmhosts. Check Linux /etc/hosts. I did not have entries in the hosts/lmhosts for the respective machines, and adding them fixed the problem of 'smbclient -L 192.168.1.30' dieing, though I still don't understand why, since I was using an IP address, but no matter as it works now. [EMAIL PROTECTED]:[~]$ smbclient -N -L localhost I connect with smbclient '\\win\WINC' -N Yes, what I was attempting to do was list shares on the win95 box. The similar command did not work before, either, though. Why is my samba box not the master? (I've got my smb.conf attached later) btw, FRIGG isn't a printer, but I would like to have it serve a printer which explains the Comment field. This is all explained in the docs! To have your Linux box be the master put this in [ global ] os level = 33 The docs say that an os level of 33 forces the Linux box to be the master. Well that USED to be the case anyway. I am using my old smb.conf. from 1.9.10 and it works the same in 2.0.2. Maybe I should RTFM on 2.0.2 myself. Still does not work, I eventually got it to be master, but not with this line which appeared to have no effect. I had been going through the BROWSING.txt file and removing and adding many things from smb.conf as experiments but to no avail, it just so happened that my os level = line was commented out when I pasted non-comment lines into the message. I always read docs before posting questions, and have been trying to figure this out for over a week. Please give people the benefit of the doubt before exclaiming that everything they need is in the docs. Sorry but it seems like a lot of people don't. I have never seen the smbclient done like you had it thought THAT was the real problem. As it was so different, I thought you might not have read the docs. After reading the doc's let us know what you had to do to get it up, OK. I gave it one last stab after the small success with your /etc/hosts suggestion I figured there were more resolution problems, and so I bit the bullet and enabled the builtin WINS server in samba, pointed the win95 box at it, and all appears to work. I don't like this because I think there should be a better way, but in the meantime, I'll use this as it appears to work. Yes that would bother me to. It looks like you are close now tho. A few more tweaks and you will have it. Good luck! Thanks for reporting back. And I apologize for the tone of my first reply. Thank you both very much.

I wonder what the track record for zip and LS120 disks is. Even Debian is refusing to install properly on it, the last semi successful install attempt resulted in a Read Only partial install that won't boot from the hard disk and a floppy boot won't access the hard disk. I believe that Debian has signed the boot partition in some way to make the disk(s) unusable. In other words, a software flag or partition id was written to the disk in a way that was not completely correct. How can I correct this? Is there a Hex editor I could use to clear the boot sector of the disk so a new install would work correctly? I would go to http://toms.net/tomsrtbt and get his 1 floppy Linux system.

Naturally you should not see CPU working a lot, unless you are, for example, starting Netscape. For example, on my computer CPU load is 5-8% at most, when I'm not doing any compilations/etc. If a process eats up 95% of CPU it means it's crashed. Some processes just don't die quietly when they crash, but go into loop instead, therefor eating all the CPU. What are consequences of that? Anyone?

For example, on my computer CPU load is 5-8% at most, when I'm not doing any compilations/etc. If a process eats up 95% of CPU it means it's crashed. Some processes just don't die quietly when they crash, but go into loop instead, therefor eating all the CPU. What are consequences of that? Anyone? I'd figure heat that builds up will eventually become a problem overheating your CPU, which will result in errors and crashes. So 'top' and see whats causing the problem. THen kill the process, if needed. Andrew --- Andrei S. Ivanov [EMAIL PROTECTED] UIN 12402354 http://members.tripod.com/AnSIv --Little things for Linux.

Re: DHCP client for 2.2.x/token-ring???
I gave it a try this morning... unfortunately, it exits with a message to the effect of interface is not ethernet. There's a patch floating around for version 0.70 which (mostly) makes it work with token-ring, but it won't apply against later versions (and a quick browse through the source seems to indicate that it wouldn't be a straightforward conversion). Luckily, a gentleman on the linux-kernel list has sent me a patch for dhclient. I can probably try it out tomorrow - hopefully we'll be able to roll from there. Thanx for your suggestion!

Re: insert eps files in a TeX document
Excuse me, but I have to do this in TeX, no LaTeX. epsf.tex works in plain TeX, as far as I know. In the TeTeX distribution, it's in /usr/lib/texmf/tex/plain/dvips/epsf.tex. It's well documented there. Here are some excerpts from the file: --- This file contains TeX macros to include an Encapsulated PostScript graphic. It works by finding the bounding box comment, calculating the correct scale values, and inserting a vbox of the appropriate size at the current position in the TeX document. To use, simply say \input epsf % somewhere early on in your TeX file then where you want to insert a vbox for a figure: \epsfbox{filename.ps} Alternatively, you can supply your own bounding box by \epsfbox[0 0 30 50]{filename.ps} This will not read in the file, and will instead use the bounding box you specify. The effect will be to typeset the figure as a TeX box, at the point of your \epsfbox command. By default, the graphic will have its `natural' width (namely the width of its bounding box, as described in filename.ps). The TeX box will have depth zero. You can enlarge or reduce the figure by saying: \epsfxsize=dimen \epsfbox{filename.ps} or \epsfysize=dimen \epsfbox{filename.ps} instead.

Quake No longer running for users
Well, I did the funny thing today, I started upgrading my machine to slink, after a few glitches (i.e. exmim returning 40-50 messages saying that it wouldn't accept mail for @localhost) I seem to have everything going smoothly (fingers crossed, haven't yet tried the network settings, I'm moving soon and have the other machine packed already). Well to cut a long story short, I got the basic problems fixed, but now for some reason Quake (thats Quake 1) refuses to run as a user. I've checked all the settings I changed last time to get it to work but the update kept them intact. The exact error message I get is :- svgalib: Cannot get I/O permissions. Now, what has changed with the permissions on I/O between Hamm and slink that would account for this problem, and how can I fix it so I can run Quake again? Oh, before I forget I am running S-Quake, not X-Quake (for those who can't figure it out), and I don't really have the resources to run X-Quake properly, I use quake to do something while my machine is downloading lots of megabytes of the internet/compiling a kernel whatever, and I would rather _NOT_ run it as root. Thanx in advance, Peter Ludwig BTW - If anyone responded to my earlier message about proxying and such forth, could you email me your response direct, as I said I lost a few emails this morning grin.
IP Masq

Thaks for your atention. pachin 7.2 Low-Memory Systems If you system has less than 6MB RAM, a paragraph about low memory and a text menu with four choices can be displayed. This means that the system detected that you don't have enough memory for a normal installation, hence must follow a special low-memory installation procedure. Go through the menu selections in order: Use fdisk to create a Linux Swap partition (type 82). The swap partition is needed to provide virtual memory during the installation process, since that process will use more memory than you have in your system. Select the size for the amount of virtual memory you intend to use once your system is installed. 16 megabytes is probably the lowest amount that's practical, use 32 megabytes if you can spare the space, and 64 if your disk is large enough that you won't miss that much. In addition create a MINIX partition (type 81). This will hold the root filesystem in the early installation process. Its size should be at least 2 megabytes. This partition can be deleted when the installation is finished. Activate the swap partition. Copy the root filesystem to disk. You will need a DOS-formatted floppy disk with the root.bin file in it (for example, the rescue floppy disk). Exit. The normal installation system will be started.

Re: Quake No longer running for users

Well to cut a long story short, I got the basic problems fixed, but now for some reason Quake (thats Quake 1) refuses to run as a user. I've checked all the settings I changed last time to get it to work but the update kept them intact. The exact error message I get is :- svgalib: Cannot get I/O permissions. Svgalib needs suid root permissions. To give the executable the proper permissions, execute `chmod u+s /usr/games/squake.real` The executable in the .deb is not like this for security reasons. Now, what has changed with the permissions on I/O between Hamm and slink that would account for this problem, and how can I fix it so I can run Quake again? Oh, before I forget I am running S-Quake, not X-Quake (for those who can't figure it out), and I don't really have the resources to run X-Quake properly, I use quake to do something while my machine is downloading lots of megabytes of the internet/compiling a kernel whatever, and I would rather _NOT_ run it as root. xquake does not have this problem anyway.

still have browser trouble
Installed Debian 2.0 from CD and everything worked. Decided to add space on hard disk but then several reinstalls all led to same browser problems.Browsers arena and gzilla, which worked before, now give error messages. Chimera2 still seems to work, but when used to download netscape communicator, something is wrong with the downloaded file. The file shows up in ls , gunzip says no such file or directory.Have downloaded netscape several times from different sites. Tried variations of XF86Setup, no help. Have new IBM Aptiva with pro rage card, not listed in XF86Setup, so used generic VGA card. Tried to remove and reinstall gzilla. dpkg -l says it is installed, but dpkg -purge says that it is not installed. I have tried both gunzip xxx.tar.gz and gunzip ./xxx.tar.gz, neither works. Have looked at file dependencies for gzilla and replaced several, not all, from ftp rather than CD, no help. As far as I can tell, except for browsers, everything else works as it should. _ DO YOU YAHOO!? Get your free @yahoo.com address at http://mail.yahoo.com

Re: Where are ms-dos filenames for Debian packages?
I read somewhere that dpkg can handle mangled filenames because it looks inside the package to determine if it is the correct version. Is dpkg what I need to be learning to use? It is certainly worth knowing how to use dpkg directly for one-off operations. CD-ROM is not an option. Modem is not an option. Are files in my /hda3/debian (which is my Windows 3.1 c:\debian directory) an option? That's where I rejoined the perl_5.004.04-6.deb file tht I'm trying to install. Thanks for the on-list and off-list suggestions I've already received. The idea about changing my ms-dos partition to a vfat partition which would support long filenames is a good idea, but I don't know if that will help me since I have Windows 3.1. Thanks for your patience. I'm trying to leap from Windows 3.1 to Linux instead of following the path from Windows 3.1...to Windows 95to Windows 98to an old Windows NTto a new Windows NTto who-knows-what. The get-the-CD suggestion was also a good suggestion but right now I'm trying to introduce myself to Linux on my computer which has no CD before I make big changes to my other computer which my family uses every day (it has Windows 3.1, also). It may be worth investigating the UMSDOS file system - this provides a Unix file system (with long file names) over an MSDOS filesystem. The Unix files live in an MSDOS directory, with a DOS file called something like linux.--- which holds the long filename and protection/ownership info etc; all the things that Unix likes which DOS does not have. The files themselves look to the DOS side of things like a truncated form of their long names. It is useful for people running in a mixed environment because it allows you to pinch space from your DOS partition and use it as real Unix space John Lines p.s. Slackware had support for a UMSDOS boot disk - you could run with no 'real' Linux partition at all. It would be very handy to have that in Debian at some stage.

Re: IRC and BitchX newbie -- how to get started?
Mark Phillips dixit: I've just installed BitchX because I want to join in on the Slink release IRC party thingy. Unfortunately I have never used IRC, let alone BitchX before, and I'm really not sure how to get started. I tried man bitchx, and also looked in /usr/doc/bitchx, but it seems this documentation is for people who already have a basic idea about what's going on. Can anyone point me to an introductory HOWTO or some similar such thing. If you get any answer in private, could you let me know, please? I used irc long ago with doze and telnet, but bitchx (or xbitchx) doesn't look like that at all. TIA Horacio.

How to mount my bernouli rw for world on samba
I moved my bernouli drive out of my windows nt desktop to make room for a larger HD (only two drive bays). So I shoved it into the linux machine sitting under the table. The linux machine is running smb so I can have it share it's disk space and printer with the nt box (so far this has worked fine). While I was able to set up a directory on one of the fixed disks to be rw to the nt machine, I can't seem to get this to work with the bernouli. If I set the mount point on the bernouli to be a+w,a+x,a+r it changes when the drive is mounted (by root)so users can't write to it. Any ideas on how to set permissions, fstab options, mount command options, smb.conf so I can attach to the bernoulli (or any removable drive for that matter) from the windows network via samba for rw access on the bernouli? My current directory structure looks something like this: /dev/hda1---/ /dev/sda1---/usr /dev/hdb1---/usr/local || | /push | /iomega The directory /usr/local/push is sharable as rw by windows nt on the network. I want to do the same with a bernouli mounted at /iomega. Thanks for any help! == Amateur Radio, when all else fails! http://www.qsl.net/wa2mze Debian Gnu Linux, Live Free or . _ DO YOU YAHOO!?
