Re: Framebuffer: no paso de 8 bpp en X, :-(
El Sun, Sep 26, 1999, Roberto Suarez Soto... llevo ya unas cuantas horas de trastear y leer documentación para subir la profundidad de color en el servidor FB para las X, pero no lo consigo. Para eso, sigue los consejos que vienen en una página que menciona la documentación del servidor. No tengo ese servidor instalado aquí, así que tampoco tengo la documentación y no te puedo decir la URL O:-) En esa página que digo se explica cómo hacer para que funcione el servidor en 16bpp. He encontrado esta: http://www.in-berlin.de/User/kraxel/fb.html a ver que dice... Lo que a mí me gustaría saber del FB es aumentar el refresco de pantalla, que no parece pasar de 60Hz :-m ¿Alguien sabe cómo se puede hacer? :-? Mira lo que dice en la documentación del Kernel sobre FB (vesafb.txt): Refresh rates = There is no way to change the vesafb video mode and/or timings after booting linux. If you are not happy with the 60 Hz refresh rate, you have these options: * configure and load the DOS-Tools for your the graphics board (if available) and boot linux with loadlin. * use a native driver (matroxfb/atyfb) instead if vesafb. If none is available, write a new one! * VBE 3.0 might work too. I have neither a gfx board with VBE 3.0 support nor the specs, so I have not checked this yet. De todas formas... # fbset mode name # D: 78.653 MHz, H: 59.949 kHz, V: 75.694 Hz geometry 1024 768 1024 768 8 timings 12714 128 32 16 4 128 4 endmode O sea, 75.694 Hz, ¿no?

Configurar módem.
Hola. ¿Alguien puede decirme cómo configurar mi módem desde Linux para poder acceder desde allí a Internet? Tengo los discos que venían con la distribución 2.1 slink donde hay documentación en castellano sobre Linux, pero no he encontrado nada sobre cómo configurar un módem. ¿Dónde se puede encontrar documentación sobre este tema?

Re: Linux y Bindows con horas distintas
Hola Este mensaje es relativamente antiguo, pero dado que acabo de ponerme a luchar con este tema, os cuento mis experiencias y os pido un consejillo. Mi portátil es americano, con su teclado en inglés, su w98 en inglés y todas esas incomodidades. Hace poco me dí cuenta de algo que me dejó pasmada, llevaba ya más de un año con la hora americana :) Soy un caso... En principio me daba igual, pero como me aburro y me las doy de perfeccionista, me puse al tema. Miquel decía: Diego Bote Barco decía: Como muchos de nosotros tengo en mi sistema instalados el Güindous y Linux. Lo que me ocurre es que no soy capaz de hacer que los dos tengan la misma hora. Cuando a uno se lo arreglo al otro se le va. haz lo siguiente: 1. Entra en la bios de tu ordenata y pon la hora local (la de la Península, si estás en España (de ahí la pilla windoze). 2. ejecuta desde la shell el comando 'tzconfig' y escoge la zona Europe/Madrid. Yo añadiría un detalle que me ha traído por la calle de la amargura. Hay que echar un ojo en /etc/init.d/ pues ahí residen los scripts que se ejecutan al arrancar el sistema. Si eres un despiste como yo, y encima en la primera instalación de Debian le diste a muchas cosas por defecto (por ejemplo a lo del reloj, que no supe entender) encontrarás en /etc/init.d/ a un señor que se llama hwclock.sh o hwclock.sh.dpkg-dist (o a ambos, en mi caso). Este script ha conseguido volverme loca (literalmente): yo cambiaba la hora de la BIOS, arrancaba windows y parecía coherente (la hora, no el SO en sí O:-D ). Cuando arrancaba linux se me cambiaba la hora de la BIOS, la de Linux, y si me apuras la del reloj de la cocina :) Hasta que hablé con hwclock.sh y le llamé hwclock.sh_no (¿será esto suficiente para desactivarlo? Por si acaso he comentado todas las líneas del. Idem con su hermano hwclock.sh.dpkg-dist). 3. Edita el fichero /etc/default/rcS y añade la línea GMT='' en vez de GMT='-u' de ese modo, linux no dará por supuesto que el reloj de tu bios está sincronizada con la hora GMT y tendrás la misma hora en windoze y en linux. Tengo el /etc/default/rcS con comillas dobles: # Set GMT=-u if your system clock is set to GMT, and GMT= if not. GMT=-u He puesto GMT=-u, GMT=, de todo, pero mi sistema sigue adelantando 2 horas. ¿Serán las comillas? ¿Cómo obligo al sistema a releer ese archivo para que se de cuenta de los cambios? Por supuesto el tzconfig me dice esto: /etc/init.d-root# tzconfig Your current time zone is set to Europe/Madrid Do you want to change that? [n]: n Your time zone will not be changed Sinceramente, no lo entiendo. ¿Se os ocurre algo para ayudarme a investigar?. -- I love computing because it's the most logical thing in my world.

Disk space not seen
As a new user of Linux it took me four times to get it installed on my old machine, the last time I had to take apart my PC to resolve a minor cable problem that Windows 95 had no problem with. I read for a full week the documentation provided on the Debian web site before I attempted to install Debian. My problem now is that Debian does not see all of the hard drive space available to it. Here is how I have partioned two hard drives the first a little over 400 meg the second a little over 500 meg. hda1/ 50 meg hda5/home 25 meg hda6/usr/lib200 meg hda7/usr/games 130 meg hdb1/usr428 meg hdb2swap 72 meg This is an old 100 mez 486 with 24 meg of ram. This is a system I built piece by piece and want to continue to use. My last system I bought the latest and greatest at the time but now am disabled and cannot afford to buy another new machine. I have some experence as a user with UNIX both on a PC and mainframes so I choose Linux to allow me to keep using my old machine. Debian shows the total space available for /usr as the 428 meg on hdb1. It does not count the 200 meg under ./usr/lib on hda6 or the 130 meg under /usr/games on hda7. I selected the Desktop machine before dselect but it would not install the last few megs because dselect said I was out of room even though I had created these extra partitions to give myself plenty of room. I dslected some of the optional packages and finally got it to load out. I wish to use the X window system and don't know if just the standard X packages will allow me to use it. Plus is there any way to make dselect to see this extra space? Thanks to all you take their valuable time to help this newbe!

At 11:02 PM 9/26/99 +0300, you wrote: This is my first try at more than swap and /.tiny /boot, giant /home, right? Anyone feel like helping? I don't think a separate partition for /boot would be a good idea. /boot is the default location for the kernel. Having the kernel and init (usually /sbin) on different partitions is probably bad. I don't see how that would work unless you mounted them both on the first pass (could take some mucking around in your startup scripts, and generally not a good idea). /home doesn't *have* to be giant. If you have multiple users, I would highly suggest separating /var, /usr, /tmp and possibly /var/tmp. With quotas enabled on /home, this eliminates most disk-filling attacks. Its also important to mount user-writable partitions with suid execution disabled (specified in /etc/fstab). For an example of a decent partitioning scheme on relatively little space (for a pretty minimal server in this case.. no X, etc. ) take a look at this: $ df Filesystem 1024-blocks Used Available Capacity Mounted on /dev/hda1 21777 10748 9905 52% / /dev/hda2 198181 10363884309 55% /usr /dev/hda3 22043 1063210273 51% /var /dev/hdc1 89266 3384623 0% /home /dev/hdc3 19805 1318769 0% /tmp /dev/hdc4 20447 1319378 0% /var/tmp $ cat /etc/fstab # /etc/fstab: static file system information. # # file system mount point type options dump pass /dev/hda1 / ext2 defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 1 /dev/hdc2 none swap sw 0 0 proc/proc proc defaults 0 0 /dev/hda2 /usr ext2 defaults 0 2 /dev/hda3 /var ext2 defaults,nosuid0 2 /dev/hdc1 /home ext2 defaults,nosuid0 2 /dev/hdc3 /tmp ext2 defaults,nosuid0 2 /dev/hdc4 /var/tmp ext2 defaults,nosuid0 2

Probably split /usr/local off of /usr, but that's because i do a moderate amount of development (665M worth at the moment). No /boot, that fits comfortably in / (and i usually have 2-3 old kernels installed). / should really only contain /bin, /sbin, /dev, /etc, /lib, /root, and /boot. None of those should be very big, since Debian follows the FHS guidelines that only essential things go in any of those. i'd keep a good sized /var, especially if you symlink /tmp - /var/tmp.

Chris, would you please go into this? I have a seperate 30meg /boot partition at the start of my drive to ensure that lilo will ALWAYS be able to see my entire kernel. I have only booted the machine six or seven times (love linux! :) and haven't had any trouble yet, but I don't need to get into trouble due to this... :) Thanks /home doesn't *have* to be giant. If you have multiple users, I would highly suggest separating /var, /usr, /tmp and possibly /var/tmp. With quotas enabled on /home, this eliminates most disk-filling attacks. Its also important to mount user-writable partitions with suid execution disabled (specified in /etc/fstab). For an example of a decent partitioning scheme on relatively little space (for a pretty minimal server in this case.. no X, etc. ) take a look at this: $ df Filesystem 1024-blocks Used Available Capacity Mounted on /dev/hda1 21777 10748 9905 52% / /dev/hda2 198181 10363884309 55% /usr /dev/hda3 22043 1063210273 51% /var /dev/hdc1 89266 3384623 0% /home /dev/hdc3 19805 1318769 0% /tmp /dev/hdc4 20447 1319378 0% /var/tmp $ cat /etc/fstab # /etc/fstab: static file system information. # # file system mount point type options dump pass /dev/hda1 / ext2 defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 1 /dev/hdc2 none swap sw 0 0 proc/proc proc defaults 0 0 /dev/hda2 /usr ext2 defaults 0 2 /dev/hda3 /var ext2 defaults,nosuid0 2 /dev/hdc1 /home ext2 defaults,nosuid0 2 /dev/hdc3 /tmp ext2 defaults,nosuid0 2 /dev/hdc4 /var/tmp ext2 defaults,nosuid0 2 -- Unsubscribe? mail -s unsubscribe [EMAIL PROTECTED] /dev/null -- Seth Arnold | http://www.willamette.edu/~sarnold/ Hate spam?

Re: Tripp Lite UPS
Back when I first started using a UPS ( mine is a APC ) support for APC was nonexistent. The standard init package came with powerd at that time. I do not consider myself a programmer, but more or less taught myself C some years ago. I hacked my own cable and rewrote powerd to first give powerfail warning, with notice that power would be shut down in 15 ( or so ) minutes. It also monitored a lead which told that battery power was low. If that activated then a shutdown would be started, after which the UPS was shut off. At that time this was somewhat difficult. I found myself going in circles trying to follow how init worked. When I upgraded to Debian 2.1 I did not have to modify my powerd at all, but the scripting (in init.d) actually pretty much worked as is. Don't know if this really helps, but I would say that you should be able to figure out how to make genpower to work, or quite possibly the Tripp Lite rpm, to work with a little bit of resolve, and some digging through documentation. [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Greetings: I have a Tripp Lite Internet Office 500 UPS and I want to set up a power monitoring daemon.

[OT] alsa compatible sound recorder?
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- I'm trying to rip some mp3s off some records (yes, vinyl) that I've got, but I'm having a hard time finding a decent tool for the job. I've got the turntable plugged in to the Line In port on my Trident 4D Wave soundcard, and I can play records and hear then (albeit faintly, even with input volume at 100%) from my speakers. However, I can't record anything. I've tried wavr from the wavtools package, but it segfaults when I pass it the -l flag (which tells it to use line in). I can get wavr to work if the turntable is plugged in to the Mic port on the soundcard, but that port only supports mono, and the quality is poor. I've also tried ecasound from http://www.wakkanet.fi/~kaiv/ecasound/ which is supposed to natively support ALSA, but it doesn't seem to do anything. It just eats up CPU cycles with calls to sched_yield(0x401e5810, 0xbb30, 0, 0xbb30, 0xbb54) = 0 So, I'm stumped, and I'm looking for ideas for other tools to try.

I've got the turntable plugged in to the Line In port on my Trident 4D Wave soundcard, and I can play records and hear then (albeit faintly, even with input volume at 100%) from my speakers. However, I can't record anything. I've tried wavr from the wavtools package, but it segfaults when I pass it the -l flag (which tells it to use line in). I can get wavr to work if the turntable is plugged in to the Mic port on the soundcard, but that port only supports mono, and the quality is poor. I've also tried ecasound from http://www.wakkanet.fi/~kaiv/ecasound/ which is supposed to natively support ALSA, but it doesn't seem to do anything. It just eats up CPU cycles with calls to sched_yield(0x401e5810, 0xbb30, 0, 0xbb30, 0xbb54) = 0 So, I'm stumped, and I'm looking for ideas for other tools to try. It would be cool if it was in .deb format, but at this point I'll try anything. Any suggestions are much appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Use your soundcard like a tape recorder i.e. connected through a tape loop's inputs / outputs of your amplifier (assuming it has at least one tape loop - probably needs to be a 'separate' for that). The amp should automatically route its active input through the tape loop (as well as to the speakers). Jonathan.

Printing restart (lpr)
My printer is an HP DJ870. I use lpr, have not made the change to lprng. When I have a long queue, as well as perhaps for other reasons, the output stream goes garbage, perhaps skips some bytes. I have tried turning off the printer, deleting jobs, but cannot get back normal output from the printer. A single postscript file will output a stream of one or half, or less, of one line at the top of each page, like postscript has been aliased to garbage. Nothing I can do seems to make it right, unless I reboot. Is there any sequence of steps that will enable me to cleanly recover to a known state between printer and spooler?

Debian and Redhat
Hi! We use RedHat on all linux-based servers and clients here at my work, except for my machine which is running Debian 2.1, and I would like to have some hard facts about the differences. I'm responsible for the maintaince of these servers, and with Debian's apt-get it's just so easy to upgrade and install packages, and I can trust that it's done right, it has never failed on my own machine. And beeing able to upgrade the whole distribution with only some keystrokes is amazing! However, there are some software that these servers MUST have, right now it's Legato Networker and the UPS software (not sure which UPS system we will use yet). Both have support for Linux, but only RedHat. I'v made debian packages of Networker from the RPM package, and they works fine. I'll try to do the same with the UPS sw as soon as we recieve it. Can I be sure that binaries compiled against RedHat5.x always runs under Debian 2.1? My common sence says yes, since they are both based on glibc2.0 and the same free software, but... I dont mind some tweaking, but I dont want to spend weeks to get it to work. Guess I have to wait until Debian 2.2 to run RedHat6.x stuff though, I dont want to upgrade any server to potato/unstable until it's considered stable. Are there any other considerations? Thanks. /Marcus

Re: Linux (both 2.0.x and 2.2.x), ifconfig, and routing tables.
Quoting Seth R Arnold ([EMAIL PROTECTED]): I got the impression that Richard was looking for a nicer way of doing this; if linux is going to be wierd about its network interfaces, then perhaps there is a nice way to circumvent it without too much work. :) If your routing table is something that evolves over time through multiple well-considered changes over a period of time, then surely it needs backing up. After all, it is an essential part of the machine's configuration which just happens not to be in /etc/foo/bar. Such a perl script could do this too. On the other hand if, like mine, it's just the standard routing table I always use, then isn't the answer just to run /etc/init.d/network? Very occasionally, one of my machine's kernels kills the interrupt handler for the 3c509 card. Because it's happened more than twice, I have a script in /root/restart-network which is: #!/bin/sh # script to restart the network after the interrupt handler is killed PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin ifconfig eth0 down rmmod 3c509 insmod 3c509 /etc/init.d/network lpc down all lpc up all If it happened more frequently, I would probably leave a process watching the log and commanding it automatically.

Re: Laptop FAQ // Debian on Floppys??
No need for five million floppies; just 7 (or is it 9?!). Install the base system, this will get you onto a ppp-connection and ftp the rest. Believe me, I tried the 5-mill-floppy-way, and it's a REAL hassle, espec. for newbies (like I was). If you don't have a modem or an ISP-account, I'd say borrow a modem and/(or get) an account. It really isn't very expensive and it is just so much easier to install by ftp. If you have an internal modem, be sure that it will run under Linux, there's a list of some known compatilities here: http://www.snafu.de/~wehe/modem_linux.html. To make absolutely sure, I'd get/borrow an external modem just to get the system up, then you can always fiddle with the external modem or get a pcmcia one. just my .02 hth Vitux --- Let's get back from la-la-land here, 'cause this ain't gonna happen -Oprindelig meddelelse- Fra: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sendt:21. september 1999 22:23 Til: Chris HOOVER Cc: recipient list not shown Emne: Re: Laptop FAQ // Debian on Floppys??

g77/fort77 and gdb
Greetings, Debian users,
Does anyone know whether it is possible to get gdb to work with Fortran?
(g77 or fort77) The documentation says it should work (with certain
caveats e.g. you can't see data in a common block, which is more feature
than bug IMHO). Both the systems I use are standard Debian 2.1 (slink). I
have tried the obvious:
${fort77,g77} -g foo.f
$gdb a.out
However if I then type
(gdb) list
in order to look at the code I get an error. For g77 it is:
../../../../libf2c/libF77/main.c:46: No such file or directory
(which there certainly isn't)
while for fort77 it is:
Can't find a default source file
I picked through the g77 docs and found the suggestion that I try
g77 -gstabs instead of g77 -g but that didn't work.
Any suggestions?
Many TIA
Hugh
