lame (vorbis) packaging.

2001-05-08 Thread Viral
Hi,
Is there anyone working on trying to package lame ?
It can do vorbis now, so I believe that it can be packaged without the mp3
stuff.

How the source will be dealt with, is something that I would like to
figure out.

Re: Intent to package intel-rng-tools.

2001-04-29 Thread Viral
 As long as it isn't too bothersome for you, would you mind explaining why
 the kernel doesn't activate it by default? Or why it isn't a `make config'
 option? And why is a daemon needed for it?

No, its not bothersome to explain. This extract comes from 2.4.4's
Documentation/i810_rng.txt. I also read about the decision of
moving the rng to userland, but I can't find that now. 


Introduction:

The i810_rng device driver is software that makes use of a
special hardware feature on the Intel i8xx-based chipsets,
a Random Number Generator (RNG).

In order to make effective use of this device driver, you
should download the support software as well.  Download the
latest version of the intel-rng-tools package from the
i810_rng driver's official Web site:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/gkernel/

 Isn't there a kernel driver for that?

Yes, but one needs the daemon to use the driver. One could activate it
from /proc, but that was removed and moved to a userland daemon.

Intent to package vcdimager.

2001-04-26 Thread Viral
Hello all,

I plan to package vcdimager.

From the README :
  This is GNU VCDImager, a VideoCD image mastering tool.
  This package contains GNU VCDRip, a VideoCD ripping tool, for ripping
  mpeg streams from VideoCD images and showing VideoCD information about
  the image.

There already exists cdrdao which can clone VCDs, and vcdtools, which can
create a VCD image from mpegs. vcdimager rips mpegs from the VCDs.

Project Gutenberg

2000-09-02 Thread viral
Hello,

I was wondering that the work done by Project Gutenberg
(http://sailor.gutenberg.org) should be made available through debian.

It would be great to use 'apt' to get all the great work done there.

It shouldn't be difficult at all to package. I don't know if this has been
discussed earlier (sorry, I didn't check the archives) but I'd like to know
of what other people think about it.

 A gutenberg index and retrieval program, OTOH...

A search on freshmeat reveals a neat program called gutenbook.
Its in perl, and uses perl-gtk.
It does indexing and retrieving, and although still in beta, is quite a nice
tool. 

And it is GPL.

trouble with portmap on diskless machines

2000-08-31 Thread viral
Hi,
I have a cluster of diskless machines. 
I've followed the instructions in the diskless package, and the machines
boot up as a result. 
The diskless package is simply great. I'd spent a whole lot of time making
SuSE remote boot and thats what I have to use until i get Debian working
properly. 

NIS doesn't work on the diskless machines. After some looking around, 
I figured that it was the portmapper that really wasn't working.
It shows up in the ps listing, and there are no errors reported during
bootup for portmap.

But rpcinfo -p localhost says 'RPC: Remote System error - Connection refused'
and ypbind says 'Neigbour table overflow'.

Please reply straight to me, as I'm not on the list, yet.
