Mutt otra vez !
Se ve que el uso del Mutt aumenta ;) Tengo el problema de que quiero bajarme el correo desde el trabajo, con fetchmail en modo daemon, y mantenerlo ahí para bajarmelo todo junto desde casa para guardarlo. Mi problema surge porque el sistema va sin problemas con el servidor de wanadoo, pero el de navegalia no me marca los correos como leidos, por lo que me los baja una vez, y otra, y otra ... ¿ Alguna solución ?

lista paquetes
Buenas. Tengo una máquina que quiero que tenga los mismos paquetes instalados que otra.

Cuelgue en el arranque (durante INIT).
Hola. Estoy usando 'Woody' y después de actualizar los paquetes con apt hace dos días, no consigo rearrancar la máquina. Bueno, me ha pasado en dos máquinas. El kernel parece arrancar bien. Llega a INIT. En una máquina he puesto el kernel 2.4.0-pre6 y en otra el 2.2.17 La única manera en que consigo que arranque es editando (tengo que hacerlo montando el sistema de ficheros desde los discos de instalación) el script '/etc/init.d/rc' y descomentando la línea que dice 'debug = echo'. Esto lo único que se supone que hace es sacar por pantalla lo que va haciendo el script. El caso es que poniendo eso arrancan las dos máquinas. Una parece funcionar normal. La otra, no deja hacer login a los usuarios, aunque al menos deja entrar al root (y por cierto, cosa curiosa, no va a 'xdm' y si trato de arrancarlo a mano con '/etc/init.d/xdm start' no me hace ni caso, cuando justo antes de estos problemas funcionaba a las mil maravillas). ¿Qués es lo que viene en el arranque después de ejecutarse los '/etc/rc2.d/S??*' ? Parece que después de ser ejecutados (creo que es /etc/init.d/rc el responsable de hacerlo) es donde se las máquinas se me quedan, aunque ahora no estoy muy seguro de si es al final, después o durante dicha carga, o si incluso tiene que ver con eso. Lo digo porque una de las máquinas se ha bloqueado arrancando 'nfsd' pero la siguiente vez que la he intentado arrancar ha conseguido ejecutar nfsd y se ha bloqueado justo después al intentar cargar 'lpd'. Voy a intentar añadir lineas tipo ' echo paso 1 ' en '/etc/init.d/rc' para saber si al menos termina de ejecutar el script y los problemas vienen en el siguiente paso. Esto es muy extraño. Por favor, si a alguien le suena esto, le agracedería su ayuda. ¿Creeis que esto es la consecuencia de usar una versión inestable? Un saludo y gracias: Juan Carlos Muro

.bash_logout en el directorio root en potato

Lo de curioso lo digo porque sorprende un poco que el sistema limpie la terminal al hacer el logout para aumentar la privacidad de las sesiones y no lo haga con la terminal del root... El motivo de esta discrepancia es que los paquetes bash y base-files están mantenidos por personas distintas, que tienen opiniones distintas acerca de cómo debería estar configurado el sistema de forma predeterminada. Lo que a mí me sorprende es que exista /etc/skel/.bash_logout. Las normas de Debian dicen que, idealmente, el directorio /etc/skel debería estar vacío y este fichero no es en absoluto necesario para que bash se comporte de forma razonable (casi me dan ganas de mandar un bicho). Mi opinión es que cada cual debe elegir su propia política de privacidad, y espero que la gente no confunda privacidad con seguridad (como dice el refrán, la seguridad no debe conseguirse mediante oscuridad).

localizacao de sh scripts no sistema base
Olá pessoal, Eu normalmente acabo não postando muito aqui, mas vocês podem me encontrar na -devel facilmente :-) Se quiserem, estejam a vontade pra me por na lista dos debianzeiros.br. Só não me tornei maintainer ainda por falta de tempo... (Por sinal, seria possível marcar uma keysigning party na região de Campinas ou em São Paulo capital? Está na hora de criar uma web-of-trust entre nós... não é por nada não, mas só por a chave numa página WWW simplesmente não é suficiente pra garantir autenticidade). Eu finalmente resolvi acabar com a gambiarra que é o upgrade de daemons no debian (não presta atenção no runlevel corrente, etc). Os scripts estão quase prontos, e vai sair um RFC pra -devel assim que estiverem testados e funcionando. Já que até o Craig Sanders resolveu não pisar no meu pé (depois que entendeu o que eu estava fazendo ;-) ), é possível que o sistema seja aceito e adotado como objetivo pro woody. Só que os scripts estão em inglês. E são pro sistema base (pacote sysvinit). Eu sei que o pessoal que traduz os boot-floppies é assíduo da lista, daí a pergunta: Como localizar scripts sh que têm que ir no sistema base? Ter dois scripts NÃO é uma alternativa viável, tem que ser algo tipo o gettext da GNU. Se tiver um jeito de i18n os scripts que não diminua a estabilidade, eu faço (e já traduzo pra .pt-BR)... Claro que o resto dos initscripts vai continuar em inglês *por enquanto*, mas não dá pra dominar o mundo num dia só. Fnord. -- One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them.

O DSL tem a eficiência quase diretamente relacionada com o tamanho do laço local entre teu modem DSL e a estação DSL (estação remota da Telefônica que serve de ponte entre os DSLs da área e o backbone ótico da telefônica) na outra ponta, portanto se você tiver azar e estiver longe (em metros de cabo. Morar na cobertura dum edifício alto pode fazer diferença) da estação remota mais próxima, a performance pode ser bem ruim. Também ouvi falar que emissoras AM e ADSL não se dão bem :-) Lembre-se de prestar atenção pro fato que no DSL a largura de banda de upload e download podem ser diferentes... RDSI é limitado a 64kb/s ou 128kb/s dependendo de quantas linhas usa (não sei qual é a da telefônica). DSL *pode* ser mais rápido que isso, mas depende do tamanho do laço, de interferências (rádios AM próximas? :-) ), e se alguém vai ou não por um traffic shaper na outra ponta da linha pra limitar tua banda na marra. -- One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them.

Javascript broken in Netscape 4.74?
Omitting the question of whether JavaScript is broken to begin with, it looks like *nix versions of Netscape don't support JavaScript in the same way that Windows versions do. In my case this means, some of my web banking services work under Windows, but give JavaScript errors under linux (complains about undefined variables). Now this is a drag esp. because I no longer have any Windows anywhere close at hand. Has anyone else had this problem? Are there fixes? Are there other browsers with better JavaScript support? -chris

Re: DHCP client setup for @Home
A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far way, someone said... So, does this mean that if I try and install potato on my home system using the boot floppies (to avoid having to burn 1 or more CDs) and I select the DHCP net configuration option for doing a network/internet install that the installation will fail ? In my experience it does: pump fails to correctly configure /etc/resolv.conf which kinda makes installing off a network kinda hard. Is this a bug in pump ? If it fails to work (for an @Home setup like mine) then why is pump allowed into potato or debian at all ? Bug in pump: unknown to me. the code is in the executable, but it doesn't seem to work. My experience: I've tried a couple times to install pump on a SPARC classic, and used DHCP to configure the interface. When it came time to install the base system (there's no CD and it's a blank HD) I had to use the NFS server's IP number rather than the hostname: DNS lookups were failing. After the system was installed and running, trying to fix /etc/resolv.conf showed me the file didn't exist. pump in potato: I dunno. Lack of disk space? I plan to reinstall potato on my home system using the boot floppies over the weekend and will see how well the DHCP configuration works then.

Re: KDE debs
Hi everyone, The kde.tdyc.com Woody tree for kde2 has been emptied, I'm sure of it because I used to apt kde2 from there. I happened to have been reinstalling my Woody box from scratch yesterday (the 6th), starting from a couple of potato disks. All went well, but when it came to installing kde2 binaries I had to use the potato branch instead. One would expect it to be the same packages, but I doubt if everything is cleanly organized at the moment; at least the kde2 install wasn't good, it froze on startup with its dcopserver not starting. I had to revert to kde1.1.2 because I couldn't solve it. I did also compile kde2 from source a week or two ago. You need to compile qt2.2 first. It worked but wasn't very stable; at least I could use konqueror and koffice from within kde1.1.2. Binary deb packages are of course much easier. Anyway, I hope that the kde2 debs will be added to the normal debian mirrors soon and hopefully they'll recompile them and check their cooperation with the normal Debian X scripts. Debian is the only distro, I'm afraid to say, that gave me and for some reason is continuing to give me troubles with kde. I certainly hope the most recent and fully incomprehensible RMS rants against the kde project (*after* the GPL'ing of qt was announced - see yesterday's slashdot) have nothing to do with this, otherwise I just might switch to Slackware or freebsd. If anyone knows anything more about this I'd be more than happy to hear about it. Best regards, Danny

SB Live kernel sound
Hi I'm forwarding this message again because it didn't seem to get to the list; I will add a couple of questions. I recently installed Potato and now would like to set up sound. I have already read on the mailing list some stuff about installing sound support but would like to check a few things with you. Some people say to install from unstable the debs for ALSA and then run alsaconf. A couple of questions - I could change my sources to point at unstable but I don't want to upgrade to woody so how do I get just the debs for ALSA without upgrading? Some Howtos I've read say that I should make sure sound is compiled into the kernel. How do I tell if sound is compiled in? Does the potato kernel come with sound already compiled in? So, do I only have to install the ALSA debs and run alsaconf and that's it or do I have to do more to get sound working? I found on the linuxnewbie site some useful information about installing the emu10k1 driver from opensource.creative.com (www.linuxnewbie.org/nhf/intel/soundcards/sblive.html). This is a second way that is documented (as far as I can tell) in a better way (ie. a specific do this, then that, etc) at a level I can understand so I'm tempted to follow it. However, what is the Debian way? The debs or creative's way? (Don't tell me it's whatever works :-) Thanks Jonathan

Re: why can gcc find -lcrypt but not -lcfont (both in /lib)?

kde2 window manager
Hi, I've installed kde2 packages for potato (before Qt went GPL). Almost everything is working fine, except I'm not being able to start kwm either from kdm or from console (using startkde). Also, looking at /etc/X11 I found I don't have a window-manager file anymore (just a window-manager~). Where should I put a line to teach kdm I also have kwm installed, so that it lists kwm in the window manager poplist option? Thanks! PS.: I've found the kde.tdyc.com kde2/potato dir is being emptied. Will I be able to found potato kde2 packages in the future or I'll have to switch to woody in order to have kde2? Thanks again!

what are these?
hey list I'd love to identify some mystery files in my home directory. there are 14 of them. they are big, and apparently binary. they are: xaa thru xam, and the last one is xxml.el. Just noticed them yesterday. I have been updating and installing new stuff (including an emacs package). I looked through some logs, but still am mystified. I don't suspect foul play, because the files are too obvious. do these file names ring a bell for anyone? Please cc, I'm not currently subscribed. Thanks. -- Turn your computer off. Go outside. -tom

Re: Editing and storing encrypted files
Wouter Hanegraaff wrote: Hi, I have some files that I would like to store encrypted. Of course I can just type them in, encrypt them using gpg and delete the original, but that seems to be a bit of a kludge. It would mean the file is at some time readable unencrypted (after saving in the editor), and forgetting to turn off the backup file option in the editor when changing the file. There must be better solutions, but I can't seem to find them. What I would like to have is an editor that has built-in encryption or gpg integration, and the option not to store any non-encrypted data on disk or on the clipboard. Is something like this available? Try seahorse package. You can decrypt from file to text editor, edit text, then encrypt it back into file.
