After changing the partitions so that 2,5 GB where free, everything was
fine in the 2nd trial/setup.

 This problem seems pretty simple. The driver floppy.ko is for normal PC
 style floppy controllers. Apple never did use such a beast in a Mac. The
 swim3 driver should handle the floppy drives for all PCI Macs that have
 internal floppy drives. You might check to see if it is already loaded,
 since the floppy.ko driver said that something else was already using
 block major 2.

so, this would be a d-i bug which tries to load the floppy.ko on oldworld
pmacs, right ?

Need to look into this nextly.

No, it would seem this module is unneeded if it is for PC floppy drives 
and the kernel image from the boot disk already has loaded the floppy - 
its the entry under /dev/floppy/0 that is missing. The d-i tries to load 
this module as it cannot just mount the floppy with the device node 
missing, so it thinks it needs to run a modprobe, which still will not 
help and only give this error message that led me astray. First, the 
root disk needs to be fixed...

 Everything went very well up untill i got to loading the installer modules.
 The installer said that it could not find a kernel module and that the

 that version kernel. I am sorry I can't provide more details but I am very
 new at installing and using Linux, as I also do not know what Output of

I believe the current etch builds are broken due to having one version
kernel and another version modules.  Sid images should work fine
however.

Thanks !

I finally get it working : the linux
debian-installer/probe/usb=false was part of the answer. Next
problem was that when the install tells me to reboot from hd
to continue the installation I still had this keyboard issue
and there was no way to put usb to false. Finally I found a
strange - but working - solution : I used the keyboard all
during the boot process and finally the keyboard was working
for the rest of the install process.

Thanks again !

olivier.

 Quoting marcoux.olivier ([EMAIL PROTECTED]):
  Hi,
 
   The installation of the 3.1r1 froze on keyboard select
  with my presario 2115EU laptop : Nothing respond on the
  keyboard even Ctrl-Alt-Suppr. Has anyone already experienced
  this kind of problem and found a solution ?
  Thank you very much,


 Have you tried the images available from
 http://www.debian.org/debian/debian-installer

 These are the development images of D-I. Using them to
install the
 stable version of Debian is IIRC possible if you boot with
linux26
 mirror/suite=stable...but recent reports have shown us that
this is
 not guaranteed to work.

 Another option is trying to boot the installer with:

 linux debian-installer/probe/usb=false

 This could solve the hang you described as it can be due
to USB
 probing for a USB keyboard.

 Technically still not true, as the m68k build continues to sit in

I'm aware of that, but as the only difference between 20060217 and 
20060218 is a build dep fix that was needed for alpha and 20060217 is 
linked from current for m68k, I did not think that was worth bothering 
about.
That would have been different if 20060218 had been the final build for 
Beta2 of course.

Yes, but not all that easy to implement. Minimal space requirements for 
tasks are documented in the Installation Guide.

Thank you for submitting your installation report. I'm closing it as there

Touchpad does not work with linuxinput module

2006-02-27 Thread Attilio Fiandrotti

Package: directfb
Severity: Normal

As reported [1] by Mike Emmel, the linuxinput DFB's input module 
prevents touchpads from working and it was also experimented that the 
ps2mouse input driver makes both mices (USB,PS2) and touchpads work.
As a solution for this isuue, it could be useful disabling the building 
of the linuxinput module for the future: it would be interesting to know 
if other touchpad failures were reported.

Well, my vmware setup didn't change in last weeks..:-)

The DHCP server setup is typical Vmware:

#
# Configuration file for ISC 2.0b6pl1 vmnet-dhcpd operating on vmnet8.
#
# This file was automatically generated by the VMware configuration program.
# If you modify it, it will be backed up the next time you run the
# configuration program.
#
# We set domain-name-servers to make some DHCP clients happy
# (dhclient as configued in SuSE, TurboLinux, etc.).
# We also supply a domain name to make pump (Red Hat 6.x) happy.
#
allow unknown-clients;
default-lease-time 1800;# 30 minutes
max-lease-time 7200;# 2 hours

subnet 192.168.7.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
range 192.168.7.128 192.168.7.254;
option broadcast-address 192.168.7.255;
option domain-name-servers 192.168.7.2;
option domain-name localdomain;
option routers 192.168.7.2;
}


So, no special parameters passed as DHCP options or whatever...just
standard stuff...

 Please run the installation at medium priority and tell at which menu step 
 the preseeding happens.

The Download debconf preseed file appears immediately after the
Configure network item has been run.

Running it seems to trigger network-preseed.postinst, which I made
set -x as suggested.

The result is that attached log file. It features a first attempt
*without* set -x and another one *with* it

I also add /var/lib/preseed/log though I think it is useless here.

Okay, that helped.
A proposal for fixing this showstopper^Wshowpostponer is in SVN.

It is unverified  (my local time has midnight plus 1 hour)

 I cannot reproduce this with either sid_d-i 20060224 or 20060225, so there 
 must be something in your local situation that causes this.

The bug is only visable when when the DHCP server doesn't offer a filename.

 Well, my vmware setup didn't change in last weeks..:-)
   snip/ 
 subnet 192.168.7.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
 range 192.168.7.128 192.168.7.254;
 option broadcast-address 192.168.7.255;
 option domain-name-servers 192.168.7.2;
 option domain-name localdomain;
 option routers 192.168.7.2;
 }
 
 
 So, no special parameters passed as DHCP options or whatever...just
 standard stuff...

Because there is no filename,
we (Frans, Joey, I) weren't affected by the bug.

 I'm currently trying a medium priority install

You shall encounter the bug again.

A thing that might work is:

| --- debian/network-preseed.postinst (revision 35134)
| +++ debian/network-preseed.postinst (working copy)
| @@ -31,7 +31,7 @@

It is also available in SVN trunk.

 Why does it look like your CD is a slave device on a connector without a
 master?  That would be a violation of ATA specs and should be fixed.

I changed the jumpers on the CD drive.  Using the 2.4 kernel on an
etch business card CD, it's now /proc/ide/ide1/hdc.  Does this mean
it's the master?  If not, how can I check?

hda/hdc are master, hdb/hdd are slave.

I quickly verified it in the vmware machine which experienced the
problem and it fixed it.

First commit of Tamil translation for Debian Installer

2006-02-27 Thread Christian Perrier
I missed it but I have been notified by Dennis Stampfer: the first
commit of a partial Tamil translation of Debian Installer has been
made in D-I SVN repository a few days ago.

The translation ratio is actually about 21% which is far from the
limit of 50% where I activate a language (a short discussion recently
happened about the real interest for a limit and it may have convinced
me that I can make exceptions) but this is already interesting to see
some progress here.

Welcome, then, to Tamil as a soon supported language in Debian
Installer. And congratulations to Damodharan Rajalingam who
coordinated (and continues to coordinate) this work.

yes, congratulations!
I'm interested to be prepared to support Tamil in g-i.
What I'd like to know is if it can share the same fonts as one of
the languages already supported and, eventually, which fonts we should
use.

I think this should be a part of the new language process (by this

The fonts have to be different as Tamil is a different script than
Hindi/Bengali (Devanagari script) or Punjabi (Gurmukhi script).

The package you need is ttf-tamil-fonts. It features a lohit_ta font
as well as some others:

/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-tamil-fonts/TAMu_Kadampari.ttf
/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-tamil-fonts/TAMu_Kalyani.ttf
/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-tamil-fonts/TAMu_Maduram.ttf
/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-tamil-fonts/TSCu_Comic.ttf
/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-tamil-fonts/TSCu_Paranar.ttf
/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-tamil-fonts/TSCu_Times.ttf
/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-tamil-fonts/TSCu_paranarb.ttf
/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-tamil-fonts/TSCu_paranari.ttf

Just install the package, then display ta.po and hi/bn/pa_IN.pothe
difference is noticeable even for us who can't read any of these (the
difference between hi/bn and pa_IN is less obvious)

It *is* now part of the NLP...but in the days we did the NLP for
Tamil, it wasn't.

For instance, I'm currently running the NLP for Lao and I've already
updated the Wiki with info about the TTF font suitable for Lao (which
isn't packaged yet).
