Re: Antivirus.
El mié, jul 07, 1999 at 09:14:36 +0200 Emilio Hernandez Martin va dir: En la BIOS de mi sistema tenía puesta la opción del Anti-Virus Protection y cuando ejecute el LILO y reinicié y entré en Linux, me salió un mensaje de ¡error! virus detectado en su sistema, no se reconoce el sistema operativo,... y cosas así en rojo que acojonaban un poco. Después deshabilité el antivirus de la BIOS y ya todo va normal. ¿Es corriente esto? sí, es normal que pase eso, el kernel de linux toma el control sobre procesos que en otros sistemas operativos realiza la bios. Por eso canta el antivirus. En linux no te hace falta, pues toma directamente el control sobre el hardware de modo más eficiente que cualquier bios. Simplemente, mantén desactivada esa opción. un saludo, miquel -- __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ / / / // |/ // / / / \ \/ / cooperación contra mando / /_ / // /| // /_/ / \ / www.sindominio.net /___//_//_/ |_/ \// \ Powered by Debian GNU/LiNuX /_/\_\ Linux Reg.

El problema no es que sea un paquete más o menos importante -que creo que no lo es-, el problema grave es que te deja la instalación del dselect a medias porque la suspende en ese punto. Entonces puedes creer que ha terminado y no es así: quedan muchos paquetes todavía por instalar, por eso echarás de menos paquetes que crees haber instalado.

Re: Ratón.

Bueno, yo lo sigo haciendo como hasta ahora, con `gpm-config' para la cónsola y `xf86config' para Xwindow. ¿Es eso?

Re: Kernel 2.3.6 ?Inestable?
Emm... jolas barb.. que se sepa la mayoría de las cosas que se hacen referentes a Linux aunque sean inestables suelen ser mil veces más estables que cualquier versión de Winblows hiperparcheada, aunque cuando los desarrolladores llaman a algo inestable y el kernel tiene el número que tiene... 2.3.x es por algo... probablemente funcione bien en general, hasta que encuentres alguno de los posibles bugs que tenga, por eso es una versión que aun está en desarrollo, puede que esté muy bien, pero no la consideran totalmente acabada... por eso aconsejan que se tenga cuidado y que si tienes muxas cosas importantes en tu máquina que mejor uses cualquier kernel estable. Por mi parte para lo que hago realmente no distingo entre un 2.2.5 y un 2.2.10 o quizás un 2.3.6, asi que antes de cambiarme de kernel me informaría de qué me ofrecen estas nuevas versiones que me pueda interesar, creo que hay un archivo que se llama Changes en el tarbal del kernel donde explican los cambios, etc. En concreto uso el 2.2.5 por el driver de la sblive :P Bueno... saludos Daniel (Embedded image moved debian-user-spanish@lists.debian.org to file: 08/07/99 21:29 PIC01487.PCX) Destinatarios: debian-user-spanish@lists.debian.org CC: (CCI: Daniel Ferradal Marquez/INFO/URQUIJO) Asunto: Kernel 2.3.6 ¿Inestable?

Si la respuesta es no, ya sabes por qué no actualiza, si la respuesta es si... entonces quizás sea un bug, compruebalo usando otro valor que no sea FRANCE, pon spain u otro que no exista en tabla, si se actualiza, después prueba a actualizar a FRANCE desde spain, si te chuta hay gato (digooo bug) encerrado...

Asunto: Como montar una particion Windows(95,NT)
Hola,
Me gustaria saber como se hace para montar una particion con Windows95 o
WindowsNT en un sistema Linux.
Creo que hay que añadir una entrada en el fichero /etc/fstab, pero no se
que tipo de sistema de ficheros hay que detallar.
Para montar una unidad Win96/98, haces
mount -t vfat -o uni_xlate /dev/hda2 directorio_de_montaje
En la linea anterior estoy suponiendo que tienes el win95/98 en la segunda
particion del primer disco, sino es asi, debes poner el
hd{disco}{particion} correspondiente.
En el caso de Windows NT, si tienes instalado NTFS en los nuevos nucleos hay
un modulo nuevo que permite montarlos, entonces actuas como en el caso
anterior pero con la opcion:
-t ntfs
en lugar de vfat.
El uni_xlate es para conservar los caracteres extendidos de windows, sino
hace una cosa rara con los acentos y demas.

Help gnome
Olá para todos! Vejam se alguém pode me ajudar: instalei o slink no modo Workstation padrão e o usava há algum tempo sem nenhum problema. Até que eu resolvi instalar o Gnome. Não via muita utilidade nele, já que eu não tenho nada contra linha de comando e programas em modo texto. Mas como meus irmãos estão começando a usar o GNU/Linux, queria incentivá-los instalando coisas como o Balsa, GnomeICU, etc. Fui no site do gnome e segui as instruções a risca. Primeiro, adicionei a linha: deb ftp://gnomeftp.wgn.net/pub/gnome/gnome-1.0/debian slink main no /etc/apt/sources.list . Depois, apt-get update e finalmente: apt-get --download install task-gnome-desktop task-gnome-apps task-gnome-net task-gnome-wm Queria salvar os arquivos em disco para instalar depois. Depois de algumas horas baixando arquivos, rodei: apt-get install task-gnome-desktop task-gnome-apps task-gnome-net task-gnome-wm O apt não retornou nenhum erro, e eu mudei o ~/.xsession para iniciar o gnome-session. Entretanto isso não funcionou, tive que logar como outro usuário e apagar o .xsession . Tentei iniciar o panel na mão, mas vinha o seguinte erro: panel: error in loading shared libraries /usr/lib/libgnomeui.so.32: undefined symbol: gdk_imlib_get_cache_info Isso ocorre com qualquer aplicativo gnome.

After instaling and configuring it it isn't responding for any traffic, which is beeing sent to sl0 device. Strange. However when I start it manualy by sending up command to fifo it works fine. Why? What could be the reason? I'd like to use my machine as a proxy to dial-up connection. It has one ethernet card. Eventualy could anybody send me default /etc/init.d/network file? Perheaps this is the place where I messed up. The /etc/init.d/network file really doesn't have anything to do with diald. It should be configured to setup the configuration of the Ethernet network interface. There is nothing in there that should relate to diald. Your description doesn't seem to indicate that you're having an Ethernet configuration problem. Diald should automatically dial your ISP through your modem when you send IP traffic from your machine. It should do this with no other user action. It should act exactly like it does using 'dctrl', but you shouldn't have to take any action other than telnetting, ftping or web browsing. So, I would surmise that you haven't quite got it installed correctly. My advice would be to get the 'Dial-On-Demand mini-HOWTO' found at various places and retrace your steps on the installation. There is also some useful info in /usr/doc/diald, but I think I pretty much followed the mini-HOWTO. It actually sounds like you have a lot of it working, it will dial and connect correctly upon command, so it shouldn't be too bad figuring it out.

help: setting up dial-in mail server
g'day Debianers... It's been a long day. I've been searching through the
HOWTOs and on the Web. My brain is burnt. I need some help! :-)
I set up a Debian (slink) box set up as a mail/file server for a small local
newspaper a few months ago. The same machine connects their Win95 LAN to the
Net through a cable modem. Works great!
Today, I was asked to set up a special use account. They want to allow a few
select users to be able to dial in from a Windows machine to get/send mail
through a POP server and *nothing else*. The nothing else was emphasized.
They don't want the users to be able to roam around the Linux box, the
internal LAN or get out on to the Net directly. If the user somehow breaks
out of POP server, they want to connection to die immediately.
I already have a dial-in PPP account for a branch office of the paper.
However, that account it allowed to do anything any local user can do. So
obviously sharing the account it out. I tried two different approaches
today and ran into problems with each. I could use some advice and help on
which is the better approach and some suggestions why it isn't working.
First, I tried setting up another PPP account , but couldn't figure out how to
restrict it to only pop3, imap and smtp. I had it sort of working, however
once the POP or IMAP server exited, the user is dumped into a regular shell.
Definitely not good!
Second, I tried a regular shell account, however the user's .bash_profile
contained:
/bin/stty -echo -onlret
exec /usr/sbin/ipop3d
exit 0
(Probably don't need the last line, but it's there as a just in case.)
That worked better, but not perfectly. When we ran tests with Eudora Light,
which is what they will be using, we had some problems. Apparently, Eudora
barfs if sees any newlines or echoed characters. This the reason for the
first line. This wasn't reliable though. Watching the output from the ipop3d,
we saw newlines would sometimes get sent, choking Eudora. Try again worked
fine. Try again sometimes it worked correctly other times not.
When it did work, the Windows machine could receive mail just fine. However,
it would hang when it tried to send mail with a telnet to mail.example.com
port 25. Eventually, it would time out. Other than not reliably passing
mail, the connection died as soon as the POP server died, so that much is
good. :-/
I'm hoping someone has already gotten Eudora to talk to a Debian box. If
not some advice on what I'm doing wrong with either approach would be very
well! Thanks for the help!!

xircom pcmcia card
Hello, I've got a problem getting my xircom Ethernet+Modem multifunction card working right. The first problem is that I can't get the card manager to automatically load the modules for the card. The second problem is that even when I do modprobe the module. When I run ifconfig it tells me that the device doesn't exist. The strange thing is that about one out of ten times though it does actually work. I've retraced my steps on the few times I've gotten it to work but have not been able to reproduce the results of it working. I'm running kernel 2.2.10 if any one has experience with this card please let me know. It is the one without the doggles on it. Thanks again for your help. Bob

Re: Can not setup up mouse for xfree86 (new user)
XF86Setup is a piece of crap from my experiences. First of all, you should make sure the hardware is for sure com1 and nothing else is trying to conflict. Obviously modems could interfere. If your bios definately says ``Serial #1 - IRQ 4'' or whatever, then that is settled. Second, do an ``ls -l m*'' in /dev to see what symbolic link `mouse' is hooked up to. Of course it should be /dev/ttyS0 -- since your mouse is IRQ4. Then if thats set, /etc/X11/XF86Config should have ``Microsoft'' as the mouse type under the mouse section and ``/dev/mouse'' as the device. Also GPM should be installed of course. If none of that works, then it is probably some hardware confliction or you don't have the serial enabled in the bios or something weird like that. -dan ___ Get Free Email and Do More On The Web.

I've never used any fonts other than the default fonts that come with the system. I originally wrote my resume under slink, and now I'm running potato.

unable to install - new user
Hallo experts on Linux, Not with a lot of experience (i had rh6 running on a 486) , but with a lot of interest i decided to install Debian on a P166 with motherboard VX Pro+, 32 M Ram ( 16 EDO + 16 Fast Page ), with 1 Hd of 1,2 Gb (also i tried with one of 170 Mb HD, other of 400 Mb,etc.) I tried with blanks/dos formated Hd, with Ms-dos 6.2, under W95, well, at less 20 different combinations, i read all Howto i find.. But -- always -- when instalation starts after booting kernel writes no more than 3/5 lines (i have not time to read it), and the machine reboots, and again goes to the instalation, in other cases stop after booting kernel and dont move more. I'm sure i'm doing something stupid, but i dont know what ¡¡. Any idea. any idea, thks __ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com

Programming question: sizeof struct?
Hi there,
The upstream maintainer of one of my packages is having problems
with his code. I thought it would be nice to use the debian mailing
lists, to see if we can an answer on this. I will forward any solution
to him.
--
The reason why I have not released LogConv 1.54 for Linux is that I am
having problems with packed structures that is causing some file formats
to not be handled properly. Even though I specify -fpack_struct the
generated code does not appear to actually do this. Structure fields
are
offset and the return from sizeof() returns a value that is not valid.
For instance, if the structure were:
struct foo {
char text[3];
int num;
};
sizeof would return 6 and not 5. So it's obvious that the compiler is
placing a pad byte between text and num to align num. I want it to
stop!

Thanks for your attention.

Reading and writing structs to files is at best unportable, it is generally considered bad design - and it is usually a broken method. When handling binary files you must think of the length of any specific field (int is not necessarily 16 bit or 32 bit or 64 bit, for example!) and you must handle bytesex. These things CANNOT be reliably handled with structs without kluging around. NEVER read/write C data types to/from a binary file. There are exceptions, of course, but they are rare. You should write a reader/writer that treats the file as an octet stream and parses the data from it. So it's obvious that the compiler is placing a pad byte between text and num to align num.

g'day Debianers... It's been a long day. I've been searching through the
HOWTOs and on the Web. My brain is burnt. I need some help! :-)
I set up a Debian (slink) box set up as a mail/file server for a small local
newspaper a few months ago. The same machine connects their Win95 LAN to the
Net through a cable modem. Works great!
Today, I was asked to set up a special use account. They want to allow a few
select users to be able to dial in from a Windows machine to get/send mail
through a POP server and *nothing else*. The nothing else was emphasized.
They don't want the users to be able to roam around the Linux box, the
internal LAN or get out on to the Net directly. If the user somehow breaks
out of POP server, they want to connection to die immediately.
I already have a dial-in PPP account for a branch office of the paper.
However, that account it allowed to do anything any local user can do. So
obviously sharing the account it out. I tried two different approaches
today and ran into problems with each. I could use some advice and help on
which is the better approach and some suggestions why it isn't working.
First, I tried setting up another PPP account , but couldn't figure out how to
restrict it to only pop3, imap and smtp. I had it sort of working, however
once the POP or IMAP server exited, the user is dumped into a regular shell.
Definitely not good!
Second, I tried a regular shell account, however the user's .bash_profile
contained:
/bin/stty -echo -onlret
exec /usr/sbin/ipop3d
exit 0
(Probably don't need the last line, but it's there as a just in case.)
That worked better, but not perfectly. When we ran tests with Eudora Light,
which is what they will be using, we had some problems. Apparently, Eudora
barfs if sees any newlines or echoed characters. This the reason for the
first line. This wasn't reliable though. Watching the output from the ipop3d,
we saw newlines would sometimes get sent, choking Eudora. Try again worked
fine. Try again sometimes it worked correctly other times not.
When it did work, the Windows machine could receive mail just fine. However,
it would hang when it tried to send mail with a telnet to mail.example.com
port 25. Eventually, it would time out. Other than not reliably passing
mail, the connection died as soon as the POP server died, so that much is
good. :-/
I'm hoping someone has already gotten Eudora to talk to a Debian box. If
not some advice on what I'm doing wrong with either approach would be very
well! Thanks for the help!!

RE: Parallel-port CD-ROM install trouble
Oops, I didn't realize you were just installing Debian. I don't think that is possible with Debian's current boot disk. I'd copy the installation/base (15 MB) files to your hard drive + the kernel-source 2.2.10 package and the kernel-package packge and install from there. After you're done installing and it reboots into Linux, Debian will load dselect and want you to pick what packages you want to install. At this point, hit ALT-F2 and log in as root. Next, you'll need to mount your dos partition (that you install from). You can do this by running insmod vfat then mount /dev/hda1 /mnt -t vfat where /dev/hda1 is your dos partition (usually drive C: in dos/windows). From the cd to /mnt/location_of_kernel-packages and run dpkg -i kernel-*.deb Hopefully those packages don't require any other packages. If not, you can begin compiling the kernel by running make-kpkg I recommend compiling all of the parallel port drivers as modules and the SCSI emulation and SCSI support into the kernel (if you need SCSI?) If you're successful this far, you should be able to reboot Linux with the new kernel (type uname -a to make sure). If so, then you can read the parport/paride docs that are the Documents directory of the kernel source to figure out what drivers you'll need for your drive, and how do use them. And finally, if the drive is detected and working, you can switch back to Debian's installation (ALT-F1) and install from a CD-ROM... you CD-ROM device should be called /dev/pcd0.

Re: Exim SMTP
Thanks for those replies from Jor-el, Gregory and Martin. But the solutions Jor-el and Gregory had proposed did not work for me, so I has to the some RTFM. THE PROBLEM I installed netscape and was trying to configure mail. I have exim installed and configured for internet site, uses SMTP. I tried to configure localhost as the outgoing smtp server. Exim kept refusing connection requests to the SMTP port from netscape, as if mail relay requests from clients on the localhost was not allowed. THE SOLUTION I decided I must allow mail relaying for localhost. Checked /etc/exim.conf and found: # The setting below locks out the use of your host as a mail relay by any # other host. See the section of the manual entitled Control of relaying # for more info. sender_host_reject_relay = * So this means mail relaying is disabled, even for the localhost ?!? So after doing some RTFM, I decided I will add the following line to /etc/exim.conf sender_host_reject_relay_except = localhost And now, finally everthing is working fine. Just wondered, is there any gain from disabling mail relaying for the localhost by default?

And a record in syslog appears:
Jul 9 08:43:42 Scorpio kernel: Filesystem panic (dev 03:01).
Jul 9 08:43:42 Scorpio kernel: FAT error
Jul 9 08:43:42 Scorpio kernel: File system has been set read-only
Jul 9 08:43:42 Scorpio kernel: Directory 1574323: bad FAT
The files can be viewed properly, though (only in root of the tree, since
thats the only place I can ls )
Please advise on waht can be wrong. I'm using libc2.0.7.19 with 2.2.10
kernel, bash version 2.01.1-4.1
In kernel, DOS fat 16, MSDOS and VFAT support are enabled
TIA,
Andrew

Re: Compaq Presario 1245 Touchpad interface problems

The primary problem is that I must configure X for a serial mouse, because I don't know what device and port to pick for the touchpad. Am I out of luck, or is there a working choice available in XF86Setup? if its the synaptics touch pad just treat it as a ps/2 mouse and X should treat it fine (i have the pres 1680, so i'm assuming a few things here;)) It _is_ the synaptics toch pad, but I get strange results from gmp. When I configure gmp, and choose ps2 and /dev/psaux, the mouse works during the test period but doesn't work after the configuration exits. Any ideas? While I'm at it, does anyone know how to get the graphics card into any other mode but the super low res? I can only see about 10% of the screen, and I can't scroll. Is this also the best I can do? once again i'm making an assupmtion that your pres has a version of the neomagic video card found in most of the compaq laptop products so here is my config file where i can get as decent a resolution as possible ( i forget the website that had the initial work on it) /proc/pci report the card as Neomagic MagicGraph NM2160 (rev 1) When I use your config file, it hangs with a grey screen. The last line reported by the server is: (--)SVGA: Generic Speedups Selected (flags=0x30) and nothing more occurs. If I stroke the keypad during this phase, I get lots of graphic splatter on the screen (stacked lines of blue, green, and white, with small black separators that move and twitch as I stroke the mouse, so, I guess the mouse works ;-) let me know how it works out Thanks for all the help...
