Bug#500807: no problem even with two IMAP accounts

2008-10-09 Thread Richard Boyce
FYI - I am running version 2.0.0.16-1 of Icedove with two IMAP accounts 
and have not had any problems at all.

Bug#432460: gcc-4.1 (and gcc-4.1 multilib) *on amd64*: ld cannot find -lgcc_s when linking static libraries

2007-07-09 Thread Richard Boyce

Package: gcc-4.1
Version: 4.1.2-12
Severity: serious

I am not a package maintainer but think that this might be of interest
to you. There appears to be a problem when trying to link static libraries
using gcc on Debian amd64. The linker tries to link gcc (statically?)
and claims that it cannot find libgcc_s. This seems to be true
whether I use  the gcc-4.1-multilib packages or other gcc packages 
available for the and64 platform. Here is an

example for a simple program that uses libgd (attached)

% gcc -Wl,-Bstatic -lgd -o codehop-gr codehop-gr.c
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lgcc_s

The program compiles and works fine if I compile as follows:

% gcc -lgd -o codehop-gr codehop-gr.c

I have experienced the same problem when I remove the gcc-4.1 package 
and install gcc-4.1-multilib as well as when I have only gcc-3.3 
installed. This could be a problem for those who must link against 
projects that only have static libraries available.


Thanks for your hard work. -rdb

Bug#369416: Further efforts to get wireless back up

2006-06-03 Thread Richard Boyce

Hi,

I noticed that the new version of the kernel did not like the pcmcia-cs. 
Since the Oronico wireless card is connected via an internal pcmcia bus 
I hoped that updating to pcmciautils would help. I removed pcmcia-cs and 
installed pcmciautils 013-1 with the recommended sysfsutils 2.0.07 and 
module-init-tools 3.2.2 then rebooted. Now, I am glad not to get the 
ugly warnings about deprecated pcmcia and dmesg of boot log shows that 
the wireless card is recognized by the driver :


pccard: PCMCIA card inserted into slot 2
cs: memory probe 0xf400-0xfbff: excluding 0xf400-0xf8ff

My bet is that it is a driver issue but I have no idea how to go about 
deducing the cause. I tried:

Bug#369416: inux-image-2.6.16-1-686: 2.6.16 update, lost wireless - seems not a udev issue

2006-05-29 Thread Richard Boyce

Package: linux-image-2.6.16-1-686
Version: 2.6.16-12
Severity: normal

Hi,

I recently upgraded Debian unstable and installed the 
linux-image-2.6.16-1-686

package with the 2.6.16-12 kernel. Previously, I was using a custom 2.6.10
kernel. All seems well except I am unable to bring up my wireless
connection. ifup freezes when it tries to run dhcpd on the wireless card:

richhnix# ifup -v eth2
Configuring interface eth2=eth2 (inet)
run-parts --verbose /etc/network/if-pre-up.d
run-parts: executing /etc/network/if-pre-up.d/wireless-tools

dhcpcdeth2

-

syslog and dmesg report ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): ethWifi: link is not
ready. Interestingly, the ethernet card works 100% of the time. I 
looked into

changing udev rules (per
http://linux.derkeiler.com/Mailing-Lists/Debian/2006-04/msg02288.html and
thread) but this seems taken care of by the current version of udev which
generated a rules file:

richhnix# cat /etc/udev/rules.d/z25_persistent-net.rules
# This file was automatically generated by the /lib/udev/write_net_rules
# program, probably run by the persistent-net-generator.rules rules file.
#
# You can modify it, as long as you keep each rule on a single line.

# UNKNOWN device (/class/net/eth0) (3c59x)
SUBSYSTEM==net, DRIVER==?*, SYSFS{address}==00:0b:db:98:93:db,
NAME=eth0

# UNKNOWN device (/class/net/eth1)
SUBSYSTEM==net, DRIVER==?*,
SYSFS{address}==32:4f:c0:00:11:4c:0c:61, NAME=eth1

# UNKNOWN device (/class/net/eth2)
SUBSYSTEM==net, DRIVER==?*, SYSFS{address}==00:02:2d:7e:bd:1a,
NAME=eth2

---

I tried to change the name of the wifi device to be different from
kernel name 'eth2' and so changed it to 'ethWifi' in the above file:

...
# UNKNOWN device (/class/net/eth2)
#SUBSYSTEM==net, DRIVER==?*, SYSFS{address}==00:02:2d:7e:bd:1a,
NAME=eth2
SUBSYSTEM==net, DRIVER==?*, SYSFS{address}==00:02:2d:7e:bd:1a,
NAME=ethWifi

and then changed /etc/network/interfaces:
...
iface ethWifi inet dhcp
...

-

After reboot, I get exactly the same problem; only with 'ethWifi'
instead of 'eth2'. Keeping the same name but following the  suggested
procedure in
http://lists.debian.org/debian-powerpc/2006/01/msg00399.html I installed
ifrename and wrote iftab to use the mac that was in the above
persistent...rules file:
richhnix# cat /etc/iftab
ethWifi mac 00:02:2d:7e:bd:1a

then restarted ifrename - same problem, no change. I am stumped; do I
have the wrong mac? I tried macchanger and it reports:
richhnix$ macchanger ethWifi
Current MAC: 00:02:2d:7e:bd:1a [wireless] (Lucent (WaveLAN, Orinoco,
Silver/Gold), Orinoco (Silver, PC24E), Buffalo and Avaya)

I am out of ideas. Most other postings (non-debian) seem to associate
this with various driver problems on bleeding edge hardware. I have had
this wifi card running for 3 years! iwconfig sees it and my access point
fine:

ethWifi   IEEE 802.11b  ESSID:  Nickname:HERMES I

Rx invalid nwid:0  Rx invalid crypt:0  Rx invalid frag:0
Tx excessive retries:0  Invalid misc:0   Missed beacon:0

I updated dhcpcd to 1:2.0.3-1 and still have same problem.

Gustavo Franco replied to my posting on the debian-users list and suggested
that I try the linux-image-2.6.17-rc3 (from experimental). I  installed and
rebooted using this kernel and had the same issues, no change.

What information would help? Any ideas? I hope we can find a patch for
this because I would like to use the inotify feature of this kernel for 
beagle.


thanks,
Richard Boyce

The package description includes the text on the Apache 1 web server -
