Re:Script de inicio
Anda todo bien lo unico queria saber si hay forma de que cuando arranca el sistema se ejecute el script adsl-start y cuando apago o reinicio la maquina se ejecute adsl-stop, por que si no tengo que entrar al sistema como root salir y luego entrar como usuario si quiero usar internet. Yo probe de poner un enlace simbolico a adsl-start en el directorio /etc/init.d pero no me sirvio. Hola, El script que pongas en /etc/init.d tiene que admitir unos parámetros concretos: start, stop y restart Si tienes dudas copia de alguno de los otros scripts que ya están en ese directorio. Supongamos que este script se llama /etc/init.d/adsl Una vez hecho esto tienes que indicarle al sistema que te ejecute este nuevo script con la opcion start al entrar en runlevel 2 (que probablemente es el que tenga por defecto), y 3,4,5, y con la opcion stop en los runlevels 0 y 6 que son los de apagado. Esto lo puedes hacer de dos maneras: - Una con el comando update-rc, creo recordar que algo asi: update-rc adsl defaults man para mas detalles - Ir a los directorrios /etc/rc.2d, etc/rc.3d, etctera y crear un link de esta manera: ln -s /etc/init.d/adsl S99adsl o ln -s /etc/init.d/adsl K99adsl Si creas un link que empieze por S es que el script se ejecutará con la opción start al iniciar ese runlevel, si es por K se ejecutará con la opción stop. Los nombres de los directorios /etc/rc.?d son los correspondientes a los runlevels. Deberás crear en cada uno de ellos un link de start o de stop. Ojea lo que hay en cada uno de ellos hasta que comprendas el mecanismo. Espero haberte ayudado. P.S.: Te estoy escribien esto desde un windows, o sea que no puedo consultar los detalles concretos y quizás haya sido algo impreciso, pero creo que será suficiente.

Para ver los paquetes que van a ser actualizados con apt-get puedes
usar el calificador:
--show-upgraded
Si usas el apt desde dentro del dselect, supongo que alcanzará
con poner en /etc/apt/apt.conf :
APT

Re: ODBC para mysql
Hola,
[snip]
ipcm Instale el MyODBC en una maquina con Win2000, y trato de conectarme pero
ipcm al parecer me da error porque hay que darle privilegios tanto al usuario
ipcm como la maquina en mi bonito Debian, pero no se como asignarle los
ipcm privilegios a una maquina externa con GRANT.
ipcm Hice lo siguinte
ipcm insert into user (Host,User,Password) values('192.168.1.60', 'david',
ipcm PASSWORD('secretpass'));
Supongo que ademas debes agregar los permisos a la tabla 'db', de
otra forma el usuario deberia poder conectar al mysqld pero a
ninguna bdatos. Por otro lado, puedes empezar por probar un
telnet al 3306 del linux.
Como configuraste myodbc? El usuario es david?, pusiste bien el
host donde se encuentra mysqld?, no dejes espacios en el nombre
local que le das a la bdatos xq creo que no funciona.

Leer una tubería en perl
Dado que no domino el tema del multithread (aunque supongo que
todo radica en fork()), estoy haciendo dos programas que se
comunicarán mediante una pipa. Como prueba sencilla, servidor.pl:
#!/usr/bin/perl
## abrir tuberia
open (PIPA, /home/hue/tmp/contador);
do {
## esperar que lleguen datos
$texto = PIPA;
## imprimir en pantalla
print $texto;
} until ($texto eq MEPIRO\n);
close(PIPA);
La otra parte, cliente.pl:
#!/usr/bin/perl
$texto = $ARGV[0];
open (PIPA, /home/hue/tmp/contador);
print (PIPA $texto . \n);
close (PIPA);
Bien:
$ ./cliente.pl uolas
uolas
$
El texto va por la tubería y aparece en pantalla porque el
servidor lo imprime. PERO! desde este momento, el servidor se pone
a comsumir frenéticamente todo el micro que puede. El xosview me
indica que el tiempo de micro es en modo usuario, no sistema. ¿Cómo
puedo arreglarlo? En el man de fifo(4) veo que se puede abrir la
tubería en modo blocking o non-blocking, no sé si esto tendrá algo
que ver, y en tal caso tampoco sé cómo implementarlo en perl.
Esto es off topic aquí, ¿conocéis alguna lista de perl?

Usas Be? Qué tal es? Corre en PC?
Es un sistema muy agradable. Lo tienes todo configurado en 2 minutos, es muy
rápido, bonito graficamente, puedes compilar aplicaciones unix bajo el (no lo
he probado), trae una shell... Una relación bastante completa de software
disponible la tienes en http://www.bebits.com/ . Corre en intel y en ppc, lo
que desconozco es si se ha lanzado en otras arquitecturas.
En http://www.be.com/ y http://www.be.com/world/wwwlinks.html tienes bastante

Lo que no se es si me conviene usar el procmail o otro programa por que escuche algo del qmail y supongo que debe haber otros y aparte donde puedo conseguir algun manual en castellano de cualquiera de estos programas. Gracias y saludos a todos.

Debian pentium 100 mhz 16M
Caros amigos Tentei instalar o debian em um pentium 100mhz com 16m ram, porém durante a instalação recebi continuamente a mensagem out of memory. Minha necessidade é apenas fazer dele um servidor de discagem e compartilhamento de conexão. Gostaria de saber se é possível instalar em tal configuração, e se for, como? Obrigado
Re: Debian pentium 100 mhz 16M
Tive problema parecido com uma máquina parecida, o problema ocorria especificamente com o driver ethernet para uma placa ne2k pci. Ele dizia não conseguir alocar um buffer para DMA. A solução foi usar kernel 2.0. Se teu problema não está relacionado com alocações tão específicas, feitas por drivers de hardware, pode ser que resolva aumentar o swap.

Re: IMPS/2 problems after kernel 2.4.1 update
Okay, first of all, please use paragraphs. They exist for a reason :) Since it's too much trouble for me to break things up to present a nice clear, response, you'll have to deal with my babbling. First of all, if your mouse isn't initialized as an IntelliMouse, it pretends it's a regular PS/2 mouse. Second, gpm gets to your mouse before X, so you have to be positive that your mouse type is set to imps2 in /etc/gpm.conf . Third, it sounds like both GPM and X are trying to use /dev/psaux. Check to see what /dev/mouse is linked to. Since you're using GPM and X, specify explicitly in XF86Config[-4] that the mouse device is /dev/gpmdata, not /dev/mouse . Now, try rebooting, after making sure all those config options are set properly. If it still doesn't work, set X to use /dev/psaux, type ImPS/2, 'rm /etc/rc2.d/*gpm' to stop 'gpm' from being started on boot, and then re-boot. Hopefully that will work. If it doesn't, you have problems that arn't caused by X or gpm. The reboots are necessary, and they have to be hard-boots. This is because of the mouse initialization thing. Hope that helps :) To quote Dave Bresson [EMAIL PROTECTED], # # # Hi there, # # # I'm having a problem with my Microsoft Intellimouse (an intellimouse with # two buttons and a scroll wheel that uses the ps/2 interface) since going # from a 2.2.x kernel to 2.4.1. The way i have setup (and how everything # worked perfectly before this upgrade) was that gpm was set to read from # /dev/psaux using the imps2 protocol. It then repeats this to /dev/gpmdata # which i then have /dev/mouse linked to. My XF86Config-4 is setup so that # it knows the mouse is at /dev/mouse, and uses the imPS/2 protocol. I also # have a line for the Zaxis stuff to get the scroll wheel to act like # buttons 4 and 5 in X so that the wheel works. Anyway, all this is well # and good because it was this exact setup that worked before the new # kernel. Anyway, since upgrading the kernel, gpm no longer works on # /dev/psaux with the imps2 protocol (hence, X doesn't work either...). The # mouse just goes all crazy moving all over the place, and pushing random # buttons and what not. So i set gpm and X to use the regular ps/2 # protocol, and everything was fine, however i get no third button or # scroll wheel anymore, which sucks. Just in case this was just a gpm # problem, i tried having X read directly from /dev/psaux using the IMPS/2 # protocol, but unfortunately got the same bad result. Does anyone have any # idea what might be the problem here? It had to have been something i # configured wrong in the kernel...however i don't know what, since it just # made the IMPS/2 stuff not work, while the regular PS/2 still works...very # strange.

Using Printer (shared per SMB-protocoll)
Hi all! At work I have a winnt mashine sharing the laser printer. No I want to configure my linux mashine to use this printer. For Example after configuring I want to do sth. like this: man xyz sharedprinter At the moment I have no X running (that's why I need to have some manpages printed, I hate reading on screen, e.g. you can't mark anything etc.). What do I have to do to use the shared printer? Thx in advance Hanno
Windowmaker GNOME - Maximizing...
Hello, I noticed that with the newer wmaker (Version: 0.63.1-3) and gnome (Version: 1.2.4-helix2) they made some changes to the 'maximize' window functionality. To clarify the situations I have made 4 screenshots and included the URL's in this message... They are approx. 20k each. JPG's 800x640. I have a little 'Aligned Panel' in the upper right corner of my screen which holds GnomeICU, and I have an 'Edge Panel' on the bottom of my screen... (http://www.freshdot.net/debian/desktop-withpanels.jpg) Before all the trouble started, when I 'Maximized' a window, the window would in fact fill my whole screen, and the Gnome Panels would lie on TOP of it. (http://www.freshdot.net/debian/maximized-therightway.jpg) Then suddenly, after a dist-upgrade (I run unstable), the maximize option maximized windows between the bottom of the 'Aligned Panel' and the top of the AUTO-HIDDEN (!) Edge Panel. So the window would cover my whole screen, except for the size of the Aligned Panel on the top. (http://www.freshdot.net/debian/maximized-stage2.jpg) But now, all of the sudden, windows maximize to the bottom of the 'Aligned Panel' and to the top of the SHOWN Edge Panel, EVEN when the Edge Panel is hidden (rolled in). (http://www.freshdot.net/debian/maximized-wrong.jpg) I *really* do not like this at all, and I would like to know if anyone has a solution for this. I can't find and options to allow windows to maximize UNDER panels, as it did before... Thanks in advance!

From the user point of view multicast is no different than unicast. You insert the appropriate address in the application and that is it. I suspect your problem might be more related to one of two things: 1. Problems with the application, or 2. Your net connection does not allow multicast. If you could indicate more precisely what you are trying to do it would be easier to help you with (1). With regards to (2), the problem is that multicast does not just depend on the server and the client but also on the routers in between. If the routers are not capable of doing multicast (or are not configured to do it) then multicast will not work. Happy Hacking, \Gandalf

The way i have setup (and how everything worked perfectly before this upgrade) was that gpm was set to read from /dev/psaux using the imps2 protocol. It then repeats this to /dev/gpmdata which i then have /dev/mouse linked to. My XF86Config-4 is setup so that it knows the mouse is at /dev/mouse, and uses the imPS/2 protocol. I also have a line for the Zaxis stuff to get the scroll wheel to act like buttons 4 and 5 in X so that the wheel works. Anyway, all this is well and good because it was this exact setup that worked before the new kernel. Anyway, since upgrading the kernel, gpm no longer works on /dev/psaux with the imps2 protocol (hence, X doesn't work either...). The mouse just goes all crazy moving all over the place, and pushing random buttons and what not. So i set gpm and X to use the regular ps/2 protocol, and everything was fine, however i get no third button or scroll wheel anymore, which sucks. Just in case this was just a gpm problem, i tried having X read directly from /dev/psaux using the IMPS/2 protocol, but unfortunately got the same bad result. Does anyone have any idea what might be the problem here?

Just install the binaries into your home dir or /usr/local ..because your settings are created in ~/user/.mozilla you wont lose them anyway, unless ofcourse mozilla 0.8's settings differ much from 0.7. Btw, if you do decide to install from the binaries (or source) then remember to remove the plugins dir in your new mozilla directory and softlink /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins to somewhere/mozilla/plugins. Otherwise when you install a plugin it will install itself in /usr/lib/plugins but Moz will only still look in its own plugins dir.

2 simple questions
I am not really new to linux (used Redhat for 3 years) but I am a recent Debian convert and I have a coulpe of simple questions. I am running Debian Woody and everything is up to date but I want to know how to change the type of system or version of Debian that shows up on a console login screen. Right now it says testing/unstable I looked at /etc/debian_version and it said the same thing there and I changed it to Woody but that didn't make any difference, any ideas? The other question may be a little more complicated. I am using gdm to login and I normaly run Enlightenment but I wanted to try out Gnome but when I selecect it from the gdm menu it starts gnome and kde together. I have replaced the /etc/gdm/Sessions/Gnome script with one that just has exec /usr/bin/gnome-session but that didn't help, if I start kde it works fine and it is a script that just has exec /usr/bin/startkde, any ideas on this one? Thanks Brad Cramer

Re: A debian-based distro for the New

I love using debian 2.2 and I am pretty new my-self(1.5 year). I think it might be a little to overwelming for them. I beleive there are three to chose from Corel, Storm and Libranet. Actually there are four good choices. Debian, Debian, Debian and Debian. ;-) Why abuse your friends by starting them out on an inferior product and then making them *relearn* how to do things the Debian way. Be a real friend and help them start off with the *right* distribution. Try Stormix. Its Debian with a easy installer and a great gui replacement for dselect called stormpkg (which is also available from woody). The installer will also set up X window for you. I've tried Mandrake, SuSe, FreeBSD and Debian. Stormix is the easiest set up and the easiest to upgrade pkgs with stormpkg. Just go to stormix.com and d/l the boot floppies or iso image for Hail which is Debian potato.The DebianPlanet interview with the Debian project leader even quotes him as saying Stormix has some great developers who share with the Debian community. -- ~~~
