Re: building 2.6.35
I should also say that I have the following in my ~/.devscripts file so as to always customize dpkg-buildpackage. DEBUILD_DPKG_BUILDPACKAGE_OPTS="-uc -us" That avoids signing the source or changes files. Which IMNHO really shouldn't be done as part of the build but only later when you are ready to sign off on the package. You can use debsign when ready.

Yes. Start out using the previous config and then build the new kernel using that as a starting point. I have previously built kernels using a command line like this (where "-2" is the second custom build): $ fakeroot make-kpkg --append_to_version -2-686-custom modules_image If you want to set the concurrency level then the right shell syntax is to put that first on the command line. $ CONCURRENCY_LEVEL=4 fakeroot make-kpkg --append_to_version -3-686-custom modules_image Bob signature.asc Description: Digital signature

building 2.6.35
Hi I am looking at how to build 2.6.35 the debian way so I end up with deb packages. the current situation is 2.6.35 is avail in experimental (>?!) with out a linux-kbuild packages - last time I asked about this it was because they only wanted people who understood how to build to play with the new linux-image. what ever the reason thats cool. I would like to install and play with the new kernel and I need headers. So I have had a look here http://wiki.debian.org/HowToRebuildAnOfficialDebianKernelPackage, there is a section on building linux-kbuild - but guess what the svn co downloads the 2.6.34 version :( I found this http://www.linuxconfig.org/building-kernels-the-debian-way - the comment down the bottom with the script - looks promising. going to give this a try. sudo CONCURRENCY_LEVEL=4 make-kpkg --initrd kernel_image kernel_headers modules_image <- this seems todo most of the work So my thoughts were to start out with .config from 2.6.34 make olconfig it and then customise it from there. I seem to remember you could some how get the src package for linux-kbuild of experimental and thus just build it from there Any help comments would be appreciated Alex -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

You can even use Perl or PHP, both of which support being daemonized so you can do incremental backups or backups of specific files based on changes.

Mike I prefer it too but my clients need verbose lists of files that were backed up in certain places and we grep that out for their automatic emails. In case the OP wants to know what we're on about, and so we don't stray to far off topic here is an example of piping tar to SSH: tar cvpjf server_backup.tar.bz2 --same-owner \ --exclude=/proc/* \ --exclude=/media/* \ --exclude=/dev/* \ --exclude=/mnt/* \ --exclude=/sys/* \ --exclude=/tmp/* \ --exclude=/usr/tmp/* \ --exclude=/lost+found/* \ --exclude=/server_backup.tar.bz2 | ssh client_opera...@backup.domain.com "dd of=server_backup.tar.bz2" Also, to make things more secure, and so you can give clients access to their own shares, if this is the case, you can easily Chroot SSH to their client share. And just give them the SSH certificate (which they'll easily be able to get anyways if they're not dumb so it's better you go ahead and Chroot ahead of time) so they can pull down their own backups. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

You just have to be careful because you could end up with > squishy text but it will be bigger. But, isn't this the wrong solution to the problem? Changing to a lower resolution and keeping the same font size is not as good as using the native or maximal resolution of the monitor together with a larger, clearer font. While it's still possible to use the VGA= option, I've not seen a graphics card where the resolution couldn't be specified directly with video= for some time. For example: video=radeonfb:1680x1050...@60 which allows the x and y resolution, bit depth and refresh rate to all be specified. I'm not sure if this still works with KMS since it gets the correct values using DPMS, but I'm sure there's an equivalent. Overall, KMS seems to be a very good thing albeit with a few rough edges for some users. Regards, Roger -- .''`.

This is most likely due to a mismatch between your locale character set (charmap) and the encoding of the console font. I'd advise using UTF-8 for both. You can check the locale codeset with % locale -k charmap ==> charmap="UTF-8" Because the Linux console has a limited number of characters (512 IIRC), you need to choose a subset of Unicodei, which is why there are separate Uni1, Uni2 and Uni3 fonts. I use Uni2 myself. All have the basic Latin characters, but different Greek/Cyrillic/Arabic/Symbol characters. IIRC Uni2 has more symbols, but try them all out to see which works best for you. If you're not using UTF-8, then you'll need to choose the exact same encoding as your locale charmap. Regards, Roger -- .''`.

In my case the consoles work as expected at boot up and I can use them, but after some period of time after I have been using the desktop when I press F? my monitor goes off and when I switch back to the desktop it comes on again. I'm using "ati" in my xorg.conf with the built in video output on this box. If I don't use "ati" in the driver section of my xorg.conf the monitor goes off at almost anytime, desktop or console. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Hi, I think, there i an error by partitioning your disk. sda1 end on cyl 3825 sda2 bgins on 3825 sda 2 ends on 36988 sda 3 begins on 36988 So you used cyl 3825 and cyl 36988 twice. sda5 6 and 7 shows correct 20397 ==> 20398 36308 ==> 36309 So you have to resize sda 2 to cyl 3826 to 36987 best regards and a nice day klaus Am Samstag, den 07.08.2010, 04:35 -0400 schrieb 郭家华: > cfdisk > FATAL ERROR: Bad primary partition 2: Partition ends in the final > partial cylind > Press any key to exit cfdisk > > > fdisk /dev/sda -l > > Disk /dev/sda: 320.0 GB, 320072933376 bytes > 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 38913 cylinders > Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes > Disk identifier: 0xbf5fbf5f > >Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System > /dev/sda1 * 1382530727 HPFS/NTFS > Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary. > /dev/sda23825 36988 266378209f W95 Ext'd > (LBA) > Partition 2 does not end on cylinder boundary. > /dev/sda3 36988 3891415471960 12 Compaq > diagnostics > Partition 3 does not end on cylinder boundary. > /dev/sda53825 20397 1331178477 HPFS/NTFS > /dev/sda6 20398 36308 127804416 83 Linux > /dev/sda7 36309 36988 5454848 82 Linux swap / > Solaris > > > > I don't know what does the error means.

Netinst ISO für eigene belange anpassen
Hallo zusammen, ich ein Problem / eine Idee. Nur weiß ich nicht, ob das überhaupt möglich ist. Ich möchte die Netinst CD gerne um einige Packages erweitern, z.B. sollte openssh, ntp, netdate usw. dazu. Nun habe ich mal etwas geforscht, dabei habe ich festgestellt, dass anscheinen alle Pakete in der Datei /dists/lenny/main/binary-i386/Packages stehen. Weiter glaube ich gefunden zu haben, dass die Installation von dort auch den Pfad zum angegebenen Paket erhält. Auch habe ich dort gesehen, dass openssh bereits enthalten ist, aber optional. Wenn ich das "optional" in "standard" ändere, müsste das Paket doch gleich mit Installiert werden, oder? Für Pakete die nicht enthalten sind müsste ich dann wohl so einen Eintrag erstellen und die .deb dann in den Pfad (Beispiel) /pool/main/o/openssh/ Kopieren. Sehe ich das richtig? Aber die Syntax und die verschiedenen Parameter in dieser Datei sind mir nicht so wirklich klar, gibt es da vielleicht irgend wo eine Anleitung? Ist es überhaupt sinnvoll, eine eigene Netinst zu erstellen? Uns würde es die Arbeit sehr erleichtern, da wir solche Server zum teil mehrfach täglich aufsetzen müssen und dadurch das ständige nachinstallieren entfallen würde. Für Hilfe oder bessere Ideen wäre ich sehr dankbar. -- Gruß, Helmut Backhaus -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

Java applications and font size
Hi, after I switched to 1280x1024 as resolution fonts in Java-Applications are too small for me. I can change some fonts at runtime by passing -Dswing.plaf.metal.controlFont=Dialog-18 and -Dswing.plaf.metal.userFont=Dialog-18 to java. Unfortunatelly this leaves in the applications I tested some fonts unchanged. -Dswing.plaf.metal.titleFont=Dialog-18 -Dswing.plaf.metal.menuFont=Dialog-18 -Dswing.plaf.metal.systemFont=Dialog-18 -Dswing.plaf.metal.smallFont=Dialog-18 all have no effect. Is there any other way I can change font size in java applications at runtime? Thanks a lot!

I selected to partition it with Disk Druid but I lost my original installation. Can you please let me know what is the correct procedure for your proposed method to make it dual-boot ?
Missing many packages and libraries
Hi all, I installed Debian a few days ago and had no trouble downloading extra packages using apt-get. Then I re-installed today, and hardly anything will work (Transmission did install). Any idea what is wrong?

xpdf fonts and xresources
Hi,
for me the xpdf fonts are too small. So I changed them by putting
xpdf*fontList: -*-helvetica-medium-r-*-*-*-140-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1
into .Xresources
But this leaves the fontsize of the textareas ("Page", Search field,
printing dialog) unchanged. Is there a way to change the fontsize for
these areas in .Xresources?
Thanks!
Andreas Gösele
