kronosnet build test segfault on x32

2018-05-16 Thread Ferenc Wágner
Hi,

As https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=886974 and
https://buildd.debian.org/status/logs.php?pkg=kronosnet=x32
indicate, kronosnet reliably segfaults in one of its build time tests on
x32.  At the same time I can't reproduce (thus, debug) this issue in my
x32 chroot.

Is there an x32 porterbox I could test on?  Or would it be possible to
manually retry the build on the x32 buildd with core dumps enabled to
gain some insight into the problem?  Other ideas, maybe?

Thanks,
Feri

CUDA bandwidth test

2013-10-29 Thread Francesco Pietra
Hello:
I am looking for how to test the cuda memory bandwdth for GTX (GTX-680)
with cuda tools in amd64 wheezy.

I tried GNU CUDA-Z, however it did not find libXrender.so.1. I guess its is
looking for it from ia32-libs (as that lib is present in my 64 libs), which
is not installed on my servers. Does that CUDA-Z work well and installation
of ia32-libs can be safely carried out without any detrimental effect?

thanks

If you are using wheezy, then you should be using multiarch to install
32bit libraries.

So something like this:

dpkg --add-architecture i386 (only need to do this once ever)
apt-get install libcuda1:i386

Or whichever package has the library you want a 32 bit version of.

[SPAM detected Spam-Test: True ; 4.0 / 3.0] Re: Re: Grub-pc problem

2009-10-23 Thread naths
Hi Simon,

After upgrading you may have option for grub legacy or grub2 for use.
Please check which one you are using.You have to use command
'upgrade-from-grub-legacy' to use grub2 permanently.

grub2 use file /boot/grub/grub.cfg and legacy file /boot/grub/menu.lst
compare to use right device for root.

/usr/share/doc/grub* may help you.

Have fun

2009-10-23 Thread Simon Vos
Sorry, I have been able to solve the problem in the mean time. For some
reason one of the grub commands called by the script that creates grub.cfg
failed. It was the one retrieving the id of the HDD. I changed the grub.cfg
file manually to use a /dev/ device instead of uuid and my laptop booted
again. After that I tried running the script manually after updating my
system again and everything worked again.

And I was using grub2 already, I was *not* booting grub2 through grub1..

I wasn't being rude (although that's obviously a matter of opinion), i
was merely stating the fact that you weren't following Debian's code
of conduct for its mailling lists. If you needed to do a test you
could a) reply to a thread that interested you (with relevant
information to that thread) and, in the body, ask that someone confirm
they had received; or b) search the Debian archive later.

But i'm sure an experienced professional like you, who's even worked
with the best in the Linux world, will already know such meager means
of avoiding sending test messages to mailing lists. I still don't
think bragging is an excuse not to follow the CoC.

This could quickly degenerate into a series of shushes to loud people in

My own ISP have sorted this out now by putting me into their exim.conf

Of course. In fact those are the hosts where you can send mails for a
given domain, and you can send them from unknown and not listed
anywhere hosts. But many MX administrators do not like this because it
opens doors for spammers.

As you said it can be a problem or not, depending on the recipient
domain.

[Help] build/test user-mode-linux and rootstrap on amd64

2006-09-03 Thread Mattia Dongili
Hello,

I'm looking for help in building and testing the amd64 version of
user-mode-linux and rootstrap packages to be able to ship them in Etch.

Building them should be as easy as adding the Architecture to
debian/control and run dpkg-buildpackage.

The first test I'd like to see successfully running is creating a rootfs
image with rootstrap and being able to boot into it.

Thanks a lot for any help.

(Please Cc: me and the uml list, thanks)

Re: D-I Beta 3 - release update - please test

2006-07-31 Thread Frans Pop
(Please reply only to debian-boot; reply-to set accordingly; add other
recipients only selectively)

A week since the planning was posted, time for an update.

Thanks to James, the upload of d-i was processed very quickly. Since then 
various, mostly minor issues have been identified and resolved.

We are now at the stage where final tests before the release can be done 
for all arches, so if you have some time, please run an installation on 
your favorite architecture(s).
Please file an installation report with your results, or, if you are a d-i 
team member, update [0] directly.

Beta 3 candidate images are available from the following locations:
Full CD and DVD images:
   links weekly snapshot images on [1]
Netinst and businesscard CD images:
   links to daily built images on [1]
   the daily images now point to the etch_d-i builds [2]
Images for other installation methods:
http://ftp.nl.debian.org/debian/dists/sid/main/installer-arch/current/images/

Known issues:
- S/390 Beta 3 candidate images are broken; will be fixed with next upload
- Lowmem settings in Beta 3 images are not yet correct; see below

 One important TODO item is updates to debian-cd, especially for
 architectures that are dropping 2.4 support in d-i. If your
 architecture needs such changes, please contact me. Joey and Steve can
 probably help with the changes where needed.

As far as we know all needed updates in debian-cd have been made and 
successful builds for all types of CD images are now available. A fair 
amount of changes were needed, so please test CD-based installs.

 All this does mean that the current lowmem levels need serious review
 for all architectures. The good news is that memory requirement for a
 bare install (lowmem level 2) looks be hardly changed.

An updated lowmem was uploaded today and will be included in the final 
upload for Beta 3. The level 1 limits have been increased substantially 
for all arches. For a few arches level 2 limits have been adjusted as 
well.
We will need to get back to this before the RC releases.


Release planning

We are mostly running according to schedule.

 29Jul  Last chance to upload udebs for inclusion in intrds
Last expected uploads (localechooser and lowmem) now done.
 30Jul  Testbuild of weekly images (using d-i images from unstable)
Images for all architectures are now available.

  1Aug  Final upload of d-i images
There is one issue that will probably delay the final upload of d-i 
images. A new upstream version of directfb was uploaded recently which 
FTBFS on powerpc. This breaks builds of d-i on arches which support the 
graphical installer. Hopefully this will be resolved soon.

  2- 5 Aug  Testing
This can already start now.

  2Aug  Last chance to upload udebs not included in initrds
  4- 6 Aug  Preparation of release notes, errata, etc.
  5Aug  Migration of d-i to testing
  6Aug  CD builds
  7Aug  Release
Will slip too depending on when the issue mentioned above is resolved.

Test wpa-encrypted

2005-11-29 Thread antonio giulio
Hi,

I have installed wpa_supplicant for my wireless connection.
Is there a way to test it? I can use internet normally, but I'm not
sure that it's using wpa (I have read this tutorial: 
http://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=399787view=getlastpost).
Could be good a sniffer like ethereal? And if so, how test it?

Thanks,

Just configure the access point to only allow WPA, and see if you
connect at all.  I am sure there is a better way but not sure what.  You
certainly can't tell with any packet sniffer since they only see the
stuff after it comes out of the wireless chip.  You would need some kind
of wireless traffic sniffer with it's own antenna or something to do
that.

Yes, using etheral it's unuseful cos package is already decrypted when
it's read:)
However I have tested with another distro (it was configured to work
with no-crypt), and it doesn't work.

However, I know that there are many security-problems for wireless
connections. WPA apart, it's further possible to inforce via software
this connection and avoid external connections to own router?

I've been running this since shortly after the announcement and it seems
to be stable enough for my needs. No crashes or trouble while upgrading
or installing other software whatsoever AFAICT.

A few bits and pieces have still not propagated to this repository that
were in the sid pure64. Evince, libflac6, nvidia-* and kernel-*-2.6.10
are understandable, they're not yet out of sid at all.
What is a bit odd is mtr-tiny. I got version .58-1.0.0.1.pure64
installed while both sid and sarge should already be at .67-1.

Keep up the great work!

mtr does not build on amd64, which is why it's patched.  Neither
the maintainer nor upstream has applied the patch I supplied.

 grub from the installed system and all was good.  It rebooted normally

 Unfortunately current sid image doesn't allow to install on Asus A8V

When it comes to installing grub press ESC or select cancel to get
back to the main menu. This will automatically lower the debconf
priority. Continuing with the install (at that lower priority) should
then ask you if you want grub or lilo, choose the later. If it doesn't
repeat (or lower the debconf priority in the main menu).

Alternatively you can start D-I in expert mode but then you get all
the questions even before grub.

 Are there any known problems with sid netinst image from, say,
 24-Jan-2005?

Is there one from the 24th? I think I removed all the images with
kernel version skews so anything you find should be fine. (if not tell
me and it's gone).

 I still want to try sarge/amd64 on A8V.

Use sid to install, point apt to testing and then downgrade the
libc6/libc6-dev to avoid the conflict.

Or pin testing to 1000 and apt will do it automatically.

I pointed a gcc-3.4 machine that hasn't been updated in a few months
to your archive, and started by trying to install libc6, which
resulted in this:

Errors were encountered while processing:

E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

My /usr/lib* looks like this:

% ls -ld /usr/lib*

lrwxrwxrwx   1 root root 3 Jan  3  2001 /usr/lib64 - lib/

Do I need to replace /usr/lib64 with a real directory, or is there
something else obviously wrong?

Many thanks,

You just missed the everyone needs to update now sice we will break
the upgrade path soon mails a while back.

The /lib64 and /usr/lib64 links have been moved from base-files to
libc6 and the required hints for a smooth upgrade were only added
temporarily. You have to use --force-overwrite now.

That sounds like tasksel. Since we have no task: xyz infos in the

file and has to be added to the Packages file somehow.

Script to add it is welcome.

When we started we had the /lib64 - /lib link in base-files as
patch. Recently the /lib64 link has been added to debians glibc
package and we had to remove it from base-files to avoid conflicts.

For this move (base-files - libc6) to work without self destructing
the system some extra infos in the control file are needed, included
in the libc6 patch.

Now that everyone has upgraded they are no longer needed and I plan to
downgrade libc6 instead of maintaining a now useless patch. (Unless a
new glibc upload beats me to it).

 OK. I remember some things from my first install so now I can check.

That is good to hear. It has been a while since an image worked.

 I tried to use the netinst image as a rescue disk and could not make the
 kernel boot my good partition. There were no instructions on how to use
 the netinst as a rescue disk so maybe that is not possible. I could use
 the F2 key for a few things, probably not enough. I didn't read the
 Debian Installation Manual so that should be the same as everybody else.

The debian kernels have everything build as modules except the initrd
support. As a result the kernel fits on a floppy but you can only boot
from initrd. And I haven't yet found a way to tell the D-I initrd to
act as a rescue image and boot an existing linux.

 I think the only problem is with the libc6-dev testing package. The
 kernel finally worked perfectly and automatically. The Installer was
 very easy to use.

Thanks for testing.

Could you try the libc6/libc6-dev again though and check with
apt-cache policy where it comes from?

As for the installation, can DFS be used to install amd64-sarge? 

I tried this last year using the same images from October.
The DFS takes more expertise to use than the Debian Installer.
The DFS boots into ram like a LiveCD unless you tell the kernel
to boot an existing root installation. While in ram you can then
partition the disk and create the filesystems from the programs
on the CD. Then chroot to the new partition and debootstrap. That
takes some experience with debian or at least another Linux dist.
I can't remember if the Debian Installer is included. There is a
debian package to build a custom DFS. That is not too easy.
Be sure to modprobe sk98lin for the Yukon ethernet controller used
on many AMD64 motherboards because that didn't get recognized.
I've used DFS for the past 20 or so Debian installations and I find it 
to be a good tool. It's actually far simpler than I thought at first. I 
was just hoping to see a newer version of it, with newer kernel images 
available. As you noted, its not too easy to build a custom DFS, so I'd 
rather skip that.

I had to fix the /usr/lib64 link about six weeks ago for
my own installation and the problem still seems to exist.
Maybe the sarge-amd64-netinst.iso from 15 January had the
problem and a newer iso would be fixed or the problem is
in the packages in testing. I could try to manually install
the newer base-files before the newer libc6. If the problem
is due to the base-files-3.1-0.0.0.2.pure64 being used in
that netinst then maybe removing that image would stop the
problem. That image should be removed anyway because of the
kernel module problems and bad features in my opinion.
I don't know if the problem is with the netinst iso or the
testing sarge.

Time to test sarge

2005-02-11 Thread Goswin von Brederlow
Hi,

I declare testing season opened.

I think I have all the scripts for sarge straighted out now and
packages are progressing from sid to sarge at the same time they do in
Debian (+- a day). There are still some packages that are older in
sarge than in sid and not yet rebuild, only 12932 out of 14904 (for
main) debs are uploaded with more on the way.

So anyone willing to test testing, esspecialy a fresh install, can
point apt to:

deb http://debian-amd64.alioth.debian.org/debian-pure64 testing main contrib 
non-free

For a fresh install you need a netinst or monolithic CD as the
kernel-image udebs have not moved to sarge yet. The netboot would fail
to find the modules.

In case of failures I need to know the name of the missing package so
I can fasttrack them. I'm sure some basic thing is stuck at the end of
the queue.

MfG
Goswin

PS: 'debian-pure64 sid' works also and should be a 1:1 of pure64

 In my boxes I already have such lines pointing to sarge, plus very
 high pinning priorities for testing and/or stable, which ought to
 force downgrade from sid if the same package is present both in sid
 and in sarge. Is this supposed to work?

If it is debian-pure64 then yes. If it is just pure64 then no since
there sarge links to sid.

Hopefully it will be soon propagated on mirrors too. As far as I can
see, debian-pure64/pool directory is still empty on
bytekeeper.as28747.net

Btw, many *thanks* for the great port. Keep up the good job *8)

For a fresh install you need a netinst or monolithic CD as the

to find the modules.
 

I'll try to test this on a few systems sometime soon.
As for the installation, can DFS be used to install amd64-sarge? And for 
that matter, does anyone have information on DFS future plans - will we 
be seeing one with a newer kernel at some point?

I tried this last year using the same images from October.
The DFS takes more expertise to use than the Debian Installer.
The DFS boots into ram like a LiveCD unless you tell the kernel
to boot an existing root installation. While in ram you can then
partition the disk and create the filesystems from the programs
on the CD. Then chroot to the new partition and debootstrap. That
takes some experience with debian or at least another Linux dist.
I can't remember if the Debian Installer is included. There is a
debian package to build a custom DFS. That is not too easy.
Be sure to modprobe sk98lin for the Yukon ethernet controller used
on many AMD64 motherboards because that didn't get recognized.

OK. I remember some things from my first install so now I can check.
I used the above sources.list with this image:
sid-amd64-netinst.iso11-Feb-2005 09:01   193M
Maybe that is the wrong image to test the debian-pure64 testing.
The installation went very smoothly with no difficulty through reboot.
After reboot the base config did not allow manual package selection. I
exited the base config and tried dselect and there were conflicts with
dependency on libc6. The libc6-dev depends on libc6 = 2.3.2.ds1-20
and libc6 was version 2.3.2.ds1-20.0.0.1.pure64. I think that would be
fixed in a day or two.
Many problems were gone and the Installer was fairly perfect for my
computer. My computer is an ASUS A8V with WD Raptor SATA boot partition 
and IDE home partition. I did not test the grub bootloader to prevent
disturbing my current setup. I first created a ReiserFS partition just 
for a test and continued until the Installer rebooted. I then 
reinstalled again making an ext3 partition with no difficulty. There 
were no problems until finding the debian-pure64 package dependency with 
dselect.

The kernel setup worked properly and the ethernet worked without any 
intervention. That had been a problem before. There was no problem this 
time easily getting to alioth after reboot.

I have previously had a problem with getting the correct broadcast
address in the network. I manually configure and ask for a 192.168.x.255
address and found 0.0.0.0 when checking with ifconfig before reboot.
The correct broadcast was entered into the /etc/network/interfaces file
so everything worked properly after rebooting. Some installers access
the internet before rebooting so that could be a problem. That is the 
same problem with the Debian-i386 installer and not unique to AMD64. 
That broadcast address would crash my DSLmodem so I had to push the
reset button and the installer would then timeout and start over instead
of resuming in the middle of the installation. There were no problems
this time except the 0.0.0.0 should not be a broadcast address.

I tried to use the netinst image as a rescue disk and could not make the
kernel boot my good partition. There were no instructions on how to use
the netinst as a rescue disk so maybe that is not possible. I could use
the F2 key for a few things, probably not enough. I didn't read the
Debian Installation Manual so that should be the same as everybody else.
I think the only problem is with the libc6-dev testing package. The 
kernel finally worked perfectly and automatically. The Installer was 
very easy to use.
