alguien tiene el CD de la revista TODO LINUX que viene con KDE?

2001-05-18 Thread Guillermo de la Hoz
Vuelvo a la carga. Disculpad por dar la paliza con el mismo tema.
Tengo ese CD en cuestin, donde viene KDE 2.1 para Debian, en la carpeta
escritorios.
Por ms intentos que he hecho no he sido capaz de instalarlo; ni desde
dselect, ni desde el comando apt-cdrom.
Otra alternativa que me proponiais es utilizar dpkg, pero es que sn ms de
120 ficheros .deb, y me puedo volver loco.
- alguien de vosotros ha instalado KDE desde este CDROM? Me podrais
explicar cmo lo habeis hecho?

A lo mejor resulta que este CD tiene mal algn fichero, como el Packages.gz
y me estoy volviendo loco.
- Tiene que tener Linux instalado algn programa para descomprimir lo
archivos gz? A lo mejor el problema est en que no puede descomprimir de
forma automtica el fichero Packages.gz cuando escanea el disco desde
apt-cdrom add

Muchas gracias

Buenas. Mira a ver si tienes en home del root un fichero llamado
.Xclients Si lo tienes estupendo, editalo y pon la siguiente linea:

gnome-session

Si no lo tienes, editalo con tu editor favorito, dale ese nombre
(importante que este con la X mayuscula) y pon esa orden. O si lo
prefieres, busca el path completo, y añadale el path que en mi caso
seria:

/usr/bin/gnome-session

isdnutils con kernel 2.4

2001-05-18 Thread Hue-Bond
 No soy muy amigo de instalar .deb's que no estén en stable, por
 lo que prefiero  compilar cualquier cosa que necesite y  no esté en
 stable como por ejemplo las  versiones de los paquetes que necesita
 el núcleo  2.4. Compilé todos  sin problemas usando las  fuentes de
 unstable pero  el isdnutils se  me resiste. He probado  también las
 fuentes de people.debian.org/~bunk sin éxito.

 Me  bajé el  .deb de  p.d.o/~bunk para  ver sus  dependencias y
 encontrar  con suerte  algún  paquete-dev sin  instalar pero  nada,
 tengo versiones suficientemente actuales tanto de libc6-dev como de
 libncurses5-dev así que no creo que sea problema de eso.

 Me  rindo.  Cederé e  instalaré  el  .deb pero  antes  quisiera
 saber... ¿alguien lo ha instalado ya? ¿Le funciona sin problemas?

Hola, te sugiero que pruebes wvdial:

# apt-get install wvdial

le das el número de teléfono de tu ISP, el login, la clave y
te lo deja  todo  preparadito  (incluido detección de  módem
externo  en puerto serie)  para que conectes a  internet con
sólo ejecutar 

# wvdial

Este programa no sólo conectar con el ISP y demás, sino que:

a) Si la conexión falla por algún error, cuelga y vuelve a 
   intentar la conexión automáticamente.
b) Si se corta la conexión mientras la estás usando, sobre
   la marcha vuelve a conectar.
c) Si desconectas el cable  del módem del conector RTB de la
   pared,  se queda intentando conectar indefinidamente, así
   que cuando vuelves a poner el cable en el RTB de la pared
   reestablece la conexión automáticamente. Esto está genial
   para cuando estás  conectado  y alguien quiere llamar por
   teléfono.  Quitas el cable de la pared,  llaman, cuelgan,
   pones  el cable  en la  pared,  y ya  estás  como  antes.
d) Si quieres configurar el  sistema  para que algún usuario
   pueda conectar a internet sin clave de roor es fácil,  un
   par de  cambios de  permisos  y listo.  (En mi sistema el
   usuario www-data lo hace sin problemas)

Como instalar temas en Sawmill

2001-05-18 Thread Guillermo A. de la Hoz Ardiz,,,

Hola a todos
Me gustaría instalar temas en Gnome Sawfish, pero no se como hacerlo.
Me he conectado a www.themes.org y he pillado uno, con la extensión 
.tar.gz, pero no se como descomprimirlo ni en que directorio dejarlo.
Brujuleando con dselesct he visto una utilidad llamada theme-converters 
que convierte estos temas .tar.gz en ficheros .deb, pero no se como se 
utiliza este conversor

¿Me podeis echar una mano? (Al cuello no, por favor;-))

¿Has configurado en netscape un servidor smtp? No uso netscape, pero me
imagino que es así, lo cual significa que el propio netscape está
haciendo el envío (estilo Windows).

Mutt no funciona igual. Mutt le entrega el correo saliente a un programa
especializado en envío de correo (el MTA), que hace esa función
específica y nada más (estilo Unix). En tu caso estás utilizando el
exim, pero no creo que esté correctamente configurado.

Echale un vistazo al directorio /var/spool/exim/msglog a ver lo que
tienes allí. Es posible que ahí encuentres indicaciones del problema.

 Tror inte det är det... Menyerna är ju på svenska. Och allt sådant
 fungerar...  Förrutom åäö-raderna...
 
 Men jag ska försöka lite med det, och återkommer.
 
 Så här ser /etc/profile ut:
 
 LC_ALL='sv_SE.ISO-8859-1'
 LESSCHARSET='latin1'
 LC_CTYPE=sv_SE
 
 export PATH PS1 LC_ALL LESSCHARSET LC_CTYPE
 
 
 
 och locale ger:
 
 LANG=C
 LC_CTYPE=sv_SE.ISO-8859-1
 LC_NUMERIC=sv_SE.ISO-8859-1
 LC_TIME=sv_SE.ISO-8859-1
 LC_COLLATE=sv_SE.ISO-8859-1
 LC_MONETARY=sv_SE.ISO-8859-1
 LC_MESSAGES=sv_SE.ISO-8859-1

 LC_MEASUREMENT=sv_SE.ISO-8859-1
 LC_IDENTIFICATION=sv_SE.ISO-8859-1
 LC_ALL=sv_SE.ISO-8859-1
 
 
 Använder nya locales där man måste editera locale.gen, där jag
 avmarkerat en_US ISO-8859-1 och sv_SE ISO-8859-1.
 
 
 X-windows startas via gdm.  Men om jag ändrar i /etc/profile och
 startar om så borde det slå igenom va?  Ska försöka sätta LANG..
 
 ...
 
 YiiH!!!  =-)  Nu fungerar det!!! 
 
 Tack!!
 
 
 Konstigt att LC_CTYPE var sv_SE.ISO-8859-1 även när jag i /etc/profile
 explicit satte det till enbart sv_SE.  Och varför har inte LC_ALL
 citationstecken runt sitt värde?
 
 
 Det visade sig att det inte fungerade att enbart sätta LANG=cv_SE  Så
 jag satte istället igång att definiera alla LC separat och lät bli att
 definiera LC_ALL.  Såhär:
 
 LANG=sv_SE
 LC_CTYPE=sv_SE
 LC_NUMERIC=sv_SE
 LC_TIME=sv_SE
 LC_COLLATE=sv_SE.ISO-8859-1
 LC_MONETARY=sv_SE
 LC_MESSAGES=sv_SE.ISO-8859-1
 LC_PAPER=sv_SE
 LC_NAME=sv_SE
 LC_ADDRESS=sv_SE
 LC_TELEPHONE=sv_SE
 LC_MEASUREMENT=sv_SE
 LC_IDENTIFICATION=sv_SE
 
 
 
 Och det fungerade!   Nu får någon gärna tipsa mig om hur det
 *egentligen* är meningen att man ska göra...
 
 
 
 
 Tack för hjälpenn iaf!  Nu kan man äntligen konfigurera lite saker, Nu
 när man ser alternativen! =)
 
 
 
 
 
  Innan du startar X, naturligtvis.
  
  Skulle inte det fungera, av någon okänd anledning, sätt också:
  LC_ALL o LC_CTYPE till sv_SE.

O novo sistema de firewall da serie 2.4 chama-se netfilter, no netfilter
existe suporte a:
ipfwadm, ipchains e ao novo iptables.Se voce por built-in (*) para o
ipchains nao tera problema algum com ip_masquerading! Verifique isso ao
habilitar o netfilter e posteriormente entrando no menu para configura-lo.La
dentro vc tb pode modular todas as opcoes para o iptables se vc quiser
utiliza-lo futuramente sem recompilar todo o kernel novamente.(eh como eu

Se mesmo assim vc encontrar problemas eu descrevo aqui passo a passo onde

Olá Hélio,

De: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] nome de

  3. Acredito que um dos pontos negativos do UNIX seja o preço.
  Verdade? Se fosse FREE será que todo mundo (com bom senso) o
  usaria?

   Não.  Solaris já é distribuído pelo preço da mídia, Plan9, da ATT,
já
 é distribuído gratuitamente.  O problema, IMHO, é mesmo quanto às
 licenças.

No caso do Solaris, existe um nondisclosure agreement, em que você
se compromete a não passar o código para mais ninguém, utilizá-lo em outro
projeto, ou distribuir versões modificadas. Comparada à GPL, é quase a mesma
coisa que ter só o binário. O que eles querem na verade é que um monte de
trouxa fique procurando bugs e falhas de segurança de graça. O Plan9, pelo
que eu li, nem é UNIX-like. Tirando o shell, que aceita os mesmos comandos,
é um conceito novo, mais ou menos como o GNU/Hurd. Em comum com o Gnu/Hurd
ele tem a usabilidade, que é quase nula :)

 Também a atualização é muito ruim.  Em qualquer distribuição
 GNU/Linux já existem ferramentas muito superiores neste sentido.

Um vez um amigo meu pediu para ajudar a instalar o Apache em um AIX.
Baixei os fontes, mas o tar que vinha nele era tão antigo que não consegui
abrir o código fonte. Tivemos que ficar com o webserver que vinha no CD,
somente em binário. Detalhe: a máquina era nova.

Um abraço,

   Tirado do /etc/apache/httpd.conf (Debian unstable) :

# AddType allows you to tweak mime.types without actually editing

#
# For example, the PHP 3.x module (not part of the Apache

#
#AddType application/x-httpd-php3 .php3
#AddType application/x-httpd-php3-source .phps
#
# And for PHP 4.x, use:
#
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps

   Aqui funciona muito bem assim, só com a parte relativa ao PHP 4 
descomentada.

   Já existem pacotes deb do XFree-4.0.3, não oficiais, para o potato, caso 
seja ele quem você esteja usando. 

Retirado do site do developer destes pacotes não-oficiais :

These are unofficial packages:

==
DO NOT FILE BUGS AGAINST THEM!
DO NOT BUG BRANDEN ABOUT THEM!

You need the following lines in your /etc/apt/sources.list:
deb http://people.debian.org/%7Ecpbotha/ xf403_potato/i386/
deb http://people.debian.org/%7Ecpbotha/ xf403_potato/all/

You might also need the libfreetype debs at
http://people.debian.org/%7Ecpbotha/libfreetype6/

For even more juicy info, see:
http://cpbotha.net/building_xfree86_4.0.3_debs_on_potato.HOWTO

IMPORTANT NOTE: because of the debconf on potato, the configuration of this
X installation might fail or be incomplete.  If this is the case, simply do
it the old-fashioned way by running xf86config.  In addition, you might need
to create a symlink from /etc/X11/X to /usr/bin/X11/XFree86 (this is mostly
because of debhelper, afaics).

==

   Testei e funcionou na máquina com potato que mantenho em casa. Detalhe : 
uso SiS530/620.

   Espero ter ajudado.

SB-CDROM, I will put standard boot/root/driver disks)

That's 2 disks to boot/root and possibly 3 (7) driver disks.  Also put base
disks which I remember span 11 FD.

Just install with easyway (not expert - no dselect).

Then you have Linux system with most of basic package.
  tar, fsck, gzip, ls, ash, ifconfig, route, ...

Well just in case you need to impress people, get one DOS disk with
  elvis-tiny(~40KB)
  traceroute(~18KB)
etc in .deb files.  install them with dpkg -i.  (They may be already
there in base set, but this is just an idea how to get additional
package.)

If you have too much deb files, put them into one subdirectory and use
tar -M to create fixed size series of files and put them onto FD.  

YES, you can do this just for show.

If I were you and need to put linux on archaic box, I take Karsens method

Re: X hangs in mysterious ways

  What's funny is that VESA comes up right, it detects my card
  beautifully; but then it complains that there aren't any screens.
 
 Sounds like it can't find a matching resolution and refresh rate.  The VESA 
 driver is limited in what resolutions and refresh rates it will support.
 
 In Section Monitor, try commenting out everything except the Identifier.  
 This will use a default set of refresh rates.
 
 In Section Screen, try using conservative values.  Like for DefaultDepth, 
 try 16.  And in the Subsection Display for 16 bit, try just 800x600.
 

I've got VESA to work now.  I had to set it to use a bpp of 8, and
then it came up fine.  My computer has been up for 15 hours now, and I've
been in X all this time; so I guess things are working alright (Although
none of my consoles work now.  *sigh*  Something about the refresh rate
being too low.  (I always thought that text consoles ran at 60Hz.))

Anyway, this leads me to suspect that it's my video card that's
busted (unlikely) or that the X driver is broken.  Should I try going back
to X 4.0.2 and see if that works?  (I had a computer a while ago with the
same type of video card, running X 4.0.2.)

Actually, VESA mode isn't much slower than the accelerated driver.
X 4.0.3 doesn't seem to have working Direct Rendering support for ATI cards
yet.  All I'm missing are the pretty colours, and I can live without them
for the time being.

Exim and several mail domains

2001-05-18 Thread Daniel de los Reyes
I have a machine running exim that has to serve several mail domains. I
understand I should set them up as local domains, but then (correct me
if I'm wrong) if I have domainA and domainB all local users would have
email addresses for both domains.
The thing is I don't really understand what I should do to tell exim
whih users belong to which domain.
Is it just a cuestion of playing with mail_aliases or is there anything
else to be set up in exim.conf
(And yes, I've read the docs about exim's virtual hosting but I don't
quite get it)

X problems

2001-05-18 Thread harsha
hi,
   i was using a potato system. i did a dist-upgrade to woody. the upgrade went 
without a hitch but for X. some packages were of version 3.3.6-18. i tried 
removing 3.3.6-18 but said dependency problems. 

I have Riva TNT2 ULTRA card. downloaded the binary drivers from nvidia and 
installed them. 

i am a newbie so didn't know i how it is quite worked. so assumed that i could 
safely remove xserver-svga. but that left me with out X. i am not quite clear 
on how to solve this. 

another thing i found when i tried to run mplayer -vo xv it says that XVideo 
definton missing. could someone give me links as to what this is all about. i 
wanted to use xine. but for a fs mode one needs Xv. 

how can i get this working,

thanks is advance,
regards
harsha

 You can install from floppy, but the amount of disk-swapping is

Actually, it's not that bad now.  If you have a decent net conection you

Re: Backup schecduling

2001-05-18 Thread Miquel Mart?n L?pez
Well, I like HD mirroring because if the main system dies, I just stick the
backup HD in and reboot, and the system is running again (either on single
user doing some forensics, or 100% functional)
I hadn't considered the option of one of my backup disks dying, still I
don't favour the idea of having just a few days to realize there's a rootkit
before it spreads to the backups... I know, 5 minutes should be enough to
detect rootkits, but just in case...
Thanks for the suggestion!

  Now, the point is I have one main HD and 2 backup HD, and have two criteria:
  
  a) Backup every one or two days, alternating the backup disks, so that the
  oldest backup is max 4 days old, and the newest is just 2 
  
  b) Backup every one or two days with the same backup disk, and make weekly
  backups with the other one.
  
  As you see, it's a compromise between having updated backups and having the
  time to realize problems or intrusions.
  
  So, just wondering, what do you do/suggest?

I've finally solved my ip-up script and now my scripts are running when I

Next I hate hearing dialup on modems. It's obnoxious! Here is what I did to 
my /etc/chatscripts/provider file pppconfig made for me:

Under the string: 
# modeminit
'' ATZ
# ispnumber
Now add:OK-AT-OK ATM0 Just before you see Your local dialing number:
OK-AT-OK ATDT444

This (at least on *my* modem) shuts off the speaker of the modem!
Finally, you can do this if you dial up more then one ISP, just add the entry 
to each of the dialups in /etc/chatscripts/

Re: debconf problem

2001-05-18 Thread Viljo Marrandi
  I have following problem - some time ago i was upgragding some parts of
  2.2 system

 To unstable or testing? How long ago, about 3 months, I take it?

unstable i suppose. And yes, it was long time ago, maybe even 3 months

 So you say you just upgraded? This appears like you upgraded to unstable
 *quite* some time ago, and then *downgraded* debconf. Otherwise, why is
 it installing debconf-tiny here?

Absolutely right. Don't ask why i did it... Now i wonder it myself too.

 If you are not trying to run unstable or testing, you need to change all
 occurrances of Debconf::Question to DebConf::Question (note case change) in
 /var/lib/debconf/*.db.

I am running stable (as stable as it is now, though). I changed all to
DebConf::Question, still same error :(. Any more ideas on this?

 If you are trying to upgrade to unstable, manually upgrading debconf
 with dpkg will work. You have probably managed to break
 preconfiguration, but if you remove /etc/apt/apt.conf, upgrading debconf
 with apt should work.

Can i force it to restore old configuration? Ie. like it was after stable
install. If i try now to install Debconf it says it's already the newest
version (stable) and thats it.

Rgds,

I'm glad you at least have a working and stable system.  Now, you can try
playing with the monitor and screen sections of your config file, to try to
get a display that's more to your liking.  I'm using the VESA driver, too,
because the driver for my video card (Trident) flat out doesn't work with my
card.  I'm able to use 16 bpp, which is colorful enough for me, and I can
switch consoles using Ctrl+Alt+F[1-7] just fine.

 Anyway, this leads me to suspect that it's my video card that's
 busted (unlikely) or that the X driver is broken.  Should I try going back
 to X 4.0.2 and see if that works?  (I had a computer a while ago with the

If 4.0.2 works for you, then sure, why not.

I have been having X server crashes on a box that has never reall
had problems (at least that I didn't create) It happens all of the time
when I try and run wine, it seemed to be happening when I would run galeon
+ gedit. I am running a fairly stock sid with extra packages from kitame
(for mozilla/emacs) ,winehq and that is about it. I have only seen this in
the last week and I was wondering if anybody else has been having problems.

Attached is some sysinfo. 
my video card is a TNT 1 and I am running the stock x-server. 
I get this strange AUDIT line in /var/log/XFree86.0.log

Re: Mouse in X

2001-05-18 Thread Paul Mackinney
Arlequin:

Here's what I'd do:

1. First, if you ever run in text mode (no X-windows) and plan to use gpm,
the first thing is to get gpm working. Type gpmtab to see a list of the
gpm utilities, one of them is the configuration tool.

2. The best tool I've found for X-configuration is XF86Setup. Don't touch
your mouse until you've used the keyboard to select the Mouse setup window,
memorize the keyboard commands to set the mouse type, device, etc. WITHOUT
using the mouse. Only touch the mouse to test motion  buttons until it's
working correctly.

If you are running gpm, then the device you want is probably /dev/gpmdata,
otherwise it's probably /dev/ttyS0 as you note.

Good Luck!

  If your only guessing that the mouse is in tty0 make sure it really

I guess you have gpm already running. There are sometimes problems
with gpm and  mouse under X. Go to textconsole e. g. Ctrl+Alt+F2),
login as root, type ps -A and if there is a process called gpm kill
it. Then go back to X (Alt+F7) and move the mouse. If it is working
you'll have to chnge the device to /dev/gpmdata, as Paul already mentioned.

locales not supported by xlib

2001-05-18 Thread Joerg Johannes
Helo List

After my upgrade to sid, I had to re-generate my locales
(de_DE-Iso8859-1) and set the LC_* environmet variables. That solved the
perl: locale unset problem when using apt-get. Now, when I start any
application under X from an xterm, I get an error message saying
Warning, locale not supportet by xlib, setting locale to C. Now, I
have looked around, and found a locale.alias file in the X11R6/lib/
directory structure and added an alias to my german locale I created
before. Any idea how to make X support german-speaking environment (like
it did in good old potato times)?

The funny thing is, in gnome and gimp, I get a mixture between english
and german messages and menu entries, e.g.the main menu in gimp speaks
english, but the dialog boxes are shown in german, with missing
Umlaut-characters.

Thank you

~/.Xdefaults

2001-05-18 Thread Keith O'Connell
Hi,

I have not until recently had cause to use this file, but I put some
Netscape modifications in it. I assumed that with a name like
.Xdefaults, it would load the default values when the X-Server started,
but
apparently not. 

It seems that to get this file read into the system I have to go to a
terminal and type;

xrdb -merge ~/.Xdefaults

I should at this point say that I log into X with xdm as a front end. I
know that ~/.Xdefaults loads fine if I use startx at the command line.
Why will it not load with xdm at the front. What is the crucial
difference between the two ways of starting X that relates to
configuration and defaults?

How do I get this file to load automatically at start time?

lm-sensors problems

2001-05-18 Thread Philipp Lehman
In order to access the hardware sensors on my motherboard, I installed
the lm-sensors-source package and the corresponding userland
utilities. I need the i2c-viapro kernel module for my MB (VIA
KT133A/82c686b chipset).

Now, when I try to patch the kernel (stricly following the
instructions in the README and INSTALL files) not all lm-sensors
modules are offered when I try to make menuconfig afterwards. The
patches are applied fine without any errors, but the module I need
just doesn't show up in the I²C section of the kernel configuration.

This problem only affects the VIA modules. E.g. lm-sensors comes with
a i2c-piix4.c file and I see an option for Intel PIIX4 support, but
there are no configuration items corresponding to i2c-via.c and
i2c-viapro.c (the latter being the one I need). Has anybody seen this
before? Any ideas?

BTW: I also tried building the modules outside of the kernel source
tree, but compiling fails with an error message. I found an open bug
report filed against lm-sensors-source describing the same problem, so
I guess it's not just me overlooking something in this case.

That happens because not all the files on the CD are, in fact,

I have two netgear cards, and I think they are the fa311 (I could be

DOS/Win95 box.  To get the Debian one working I first put it in a DOS
box, booted with their driver disk and ran the setup utility.  I did
this to turn off PnP.  Then I put it in the Debian box and added the
following to /etc/modules.conf (actually to a different file under
/etc/modutils and ran update-modules) :

alias eth0 ne io=0x300

( I am not at the box right now, and it might have been 
alias eth0 ne2000 io=0x300  )

Everything has worked fine for me.  As others have suggested go to
Donald Becker's site (at scyld.com) and see what he says there.  He is

Re: Best way to install tuxracer on testing

The best way to do it is to either add unstable to your sources do a apt-get 
update and then an apt-get install tuxracer and then change your sources back 
and do an apt-get update again. You could also just go to www.debian.org and do 
a search on the packages download the right debs and install them with dpkg -i 
I have installed packages from unstable on my testing box using both these 
methods and have yet to have a problem. Just don't forget to change the sources 
back. :)

module requires the agpgart module to function correctly
Please load the agpgart module before you load the mga module)

`modprobe agpgart' fails with following error message:

/lib/modules/2.4.4/kernel/drivers/char/agp/agpgart.o: init_module: No such

Re: cp binary cd to hd

2001-05-18 Thread evan . day


 Question, how does a disk that can only hold 750mb of data fill a 5gb
 partition? :| I'm completely at a loss. It just *seemed* so simple.

Two things:

1) Lots of the files on the CD are in fact symbolic links, and when you
run CP it will not copy the symlinks, but the files themselves.  Check
the cp man page for a switch you can pass it that tells it not to copy
the linked files, but recreate the links instead.

2) Depending on the block size of the CD and the HD, small files may
take up much more space on your HD than on the CD. I wouldn't expect
this to account for 4+ GB of space, but it can be significant.
