Dos cuestiones.
Hola a todos, la primera cuestion es acerca de como se apaga el monitor automaticamente, cuando acabe la instalacion de debian potato pasados unos minutos, sin tocar teclado ni raton, el monitor se apagaba solo, alguien sabe como puedo restablecer esa configuracion, o cual es el daemon que controla dicha tarea. La segunda es la siguiente, hace ya tiempo envie un mensaje acerca de como decodificar un archivo wav a mp3 con el encoder lame, alguien me sugirio que podia usar el mpg123 --wav, pero he detectado que si un archivo inicial wav lo conviertes a mp3 con lame y luego vuelves a convertirlo a wav usando mpg123 el tamaño de archivo wav final no coincide con el del inicial, aunque la diferencia es poca... pero alguien sabe con lame que instruccion podria usar para pasar el mp3 a wav???, he probado: lame --decode a.mp3 a.wav lame --mp3input --decode a.mp3 a.wav, sin exito. Bueno, muchas gracias a todos. -- El.Correo.De/Oscar.diaz es de él y de nadie más. El tuyo... ¿de quién es?.

Tradução
Oi, pessoal Essa é minha primeira mensagem na lista, mas já venho lendo as mensagens postadas há algum tempo e posso garantir que tem sido úteis. Comecei no GNU/Linux com o Debian 2.1 (slink) há mais ou menos um ano e meio e fuçando (e lendo muito) já consegui fazer um bocado de coisas. Creio que a melhor maneira de se aprender algo é na prática, e buscando a informação por si mesmo. Então, a documentação é FUNDAMENTAL. Diante do que vem fazendo esse grupo, tenho que parabenizá-los pelo enorme esforço que fazem pra garantir que um desconhecido como eu possa ter uma alternativa (melhor) aos SO's do mercado. Acho que, de certa forma, tenho a obrigação de colaborar também. Então, no tempo que encontrei, traduzi cerca de 30% do Debian Guide (John Goerzen e Ossama Othman), que peguei através de um link no Debian-BR. Mas pelo que tenho lido na página, talvez essa não seja a maior prioridade. Então peço que se possível dêem uma olhada no que já fiz (pra quem eu mando?) e que não xinguem muito (calma, tô aprendendo!). Se realmente é melhor direcionar os esforços em outro sentido, digam pra onde. Não disponho de muito tempo livre (ainda mas a partir de agora que vão reiniciar minhas aulas), mas continuarei fazendo o possível pra ajudar. Só mais uma coisa: li em vários documentos o termo a Debian, e em outros o Debian. Qual o correto, e por quê? (nasceu a dúvida na tradução) Valeu, e inté. Paulo Ormenese LinuxUser #200782 Jundiaí-SP

Está em inglês porque mandei para a lista debian-user também, e não tive tempo ainda para traduzir. Qualquer dúvida me perguntem. Abraços, - Vítor __ Vítor Estêvão Silva Souza [EMAIL PROTECTED] Eu me interessei por Linux já há aproximadamente dois anos. Tenho algumas versões diferentes, mas a versão à qual mais me interessei foi a Debian, pelas razões que todos já conhecem. Estava com um problema que me impediu o uso do Linux como um todo, o acesso à internet. Como muitos usuários brasileiros, minha máquina possui uma placa-mãe da PCCHIPS, a mais barata do mercado por possuir hardware on-board. Já havia entrado em contado com a instalação do driver PCTel há algum tempo mas estava tendo problemas com ele. Estive olhando este mini-Howto e as informações contidas no link dele e acredito que irá funcionar. Parabéns pela iniciativa, tanto do Vítor, como a do jan stifter (http://www.medres.ch/~jstifter/linux/pctel.html). Bem, durante muito tempo fiquei pensando se o Linux era somente para alguns, aqueles que possuem um poder aquisito maior e podem possuir um modem que não seja on-board. Na minha opinião o Linux deve ser para todos, não um simples código-aberto, mas realmente um software que fosse para todos, substituindo de vez o rwindows.

Re: PCMCIA Ethernet card in 2.4.6 kernel
Aaron, Here's how I FINALLY got mine going Grab a 2.4.* kernel from ftp.kernel.org as well as the newest pcmcia-cs package from sourceforge.net. Then compile your 2.4.* kernel with whatever options you require, however, eliminate ALL pcmcia options from the kernel. If I remember correctly if your disable pcmcia in the 'General Options', you will not be prompted for any other pcmcia's. So with that done boot your new kernel and make the pcmcia-cs package (follow the README), and you should be good. : ) I tried on many occasions to enable pcmcia in the 2.4 series kernel to no avail, however there are know issues with my card, try it this way, hope this helps.

How can X be using 64M of swap when the summary line says 0K is used? (The 'free' command agrees with this, btw.) 2. What does the summary line mean by 107692K cached? 3. Is it really normal for X to be using up 85M of memory? The system has only been up about an hour and a half, so this isn't a slow leak that's been building up for weeks. I'm running XFree86 4.1 on a custom-built 2.4.7 kernel, for whatever that information may be worth. I remember looking at top just a few days ago, running XFree86 4.0.3, and it seemed to be using only around 50M then (when the system had been up continuously for several weeks).

[suggestion] :confusing dselect urge for agressive upgrade
Hi everyone, I'm not sure if that's the good place for a suggestion post, please apologize if it's not. Maybe that has been discussed before as well, though I could no find anything in the archives. dselect has the default behavior that successfully installed packages are marked as 'installed ok install' in the package status file. That means, as far as I could infer, something like : package installed, do upgrade without question if newer version found and this has the consequence, that after a standard CD ROM install, the first time you connect to a ftp distribution site, dselect spontaneously offers you to download nty *Megabytes* of archives, even if you've only selected a few new small packages. (Which is very confusing the first time, and can be very tedious with a small modem line.) The standard way to oper is apparently to set all installed packages on hold installed ok hold, to prevent dselect from trying to agressively upgrade them. But this can't be done in an easy way in dselect, so one has to use apt --get-setection and apt --set-selection. So here is my selection: Why not have dselect set a package on 'installed ok hold' by default after installation, and add 2 new entries in the dselect menu to globally unhold / hold the complete set of installed packages. This would greatly simplify the way most users use dselect (i.e. making a base install, and have it stay stable for a while, while downloading some new packages), and would not prevent for a global 'upgrade' download of the installed packages when required. I've seen that a replacement for dselect is underway as deity. Maybe this behavior has been considered for it, if not I would greatly apprciate it.

RE: strange PATH problems with root
Hi all, I run Debian Potato (Kernel 2.2.17) with Gnome and sawmill as Window Manager. I use the Gnome Display Manager for graphical loggin. Last week, I decide to uninstall gdm. Just after unsinstall, I discovered a (small) problem on my system when login into bash : the root's PATH is not set as it was before. The root PATH doesn't contain /sbin;/usr/sbin anymore. I took a look at the config file from gdm and saw that the PATH for root was correctly set in this file. I checked /etc/profile and /root/.bash_profile but the PATH isn't set in any of these file for root user. However, I can remenber that my system was running correctly before I decided to use gdm. So the right config files must have been overwriten or lost. I can't remenber if I've modified root's .bash_profile for example. So, here come my question : Could someone send me root's dot configuration file (.bash_profile at least). Is there a .profile for root just after a freshly install Or better, has someone been confronted to the same problem ? Is this due to gdm ? You must have sash installed. This can be tested by doing an su from the command line. If sash is installed, then root's login shell will not include /sbin;/usr/sbin, but su will give root a proper shell including /sbin;/usr/sbin AFAIK, this feature is intended to be a last line of defense against some rootkits and against hackers who are unaware of sash. I believe that you can set a different password for the full featured root shell, but I have been unable to make this work. I'm not eleet 3n0ugh I guess. I'm going to be trying again when I add a new box (new toys, yay, being employed isn't all that bad after all.) to my playground next week. -- Paul T Wright [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unfortunately, I'm not running sash... Could someone send me the original root's dotfile (.bashrc, .bash_profile, .profile) and eventually /etc/profile or give me the name of the package that contains those files.

I wasn't running gdm at the beginning and I'm quite sure that /sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/sbin were in root's PATH (I could lunch dselect and use dselect without exporting a new PATH manually. Uninstalling gdm does not recover the initial state ??? What is this shit ?

Network Drivers

The files are .tar.gz which I think is a compressed file format which (luckily) WinZip opens. The contents are .c files amongst others which must be the source for the drivers. I have tried preload modules from floppy with the files in the root directory and the /boot dir on the FD. I have also tried driver-1.bin which failed. I also tried Configure Device Driver Modules with the files in the root dir and /lib/modules/2.2.19pre17-idepci. What am I doing wrong?

Re: Network Drivers
Hi, i think there's some file called README or INSTALL among the files in the archive. Read these! There usually is explained how to install the drivers. I also think that what you've downloaded are only the sources. You have to compile them first to get the real drivers out. But as saif before, this should be explained in the README or INSTALL file. Good luck! Greetings, Matthias I'm rather new to using Linux, in fact, I'm trying to do my first install. I'm stuck as far as installing the network card(s) goes. My machine has two Dell network cards in. I am booting using rescue.bin and root.bin downloaded yesterday, and intend to do an install across the 'net through the network here. The network properties are set correctly. The cards have a chip with 82559 on it, which I believe is a re-branded Intel chip. I have downloaded all the linux drivers for this chipset from http://www.intel.com and copied them to FDD. The files are .tar.gz which I think is a compressed file format which (luckily) WinZip opens. The contents are .c files amongst others which must be the source for the drivers.

exim won't relay mail
I setup exim on my system this weekend, but it's not working quite
right. I had a school assignment to create a simple smtp client so I
setup exim so I could test it without blocking the phone line. exim
delivers locally just fine. However, it won't send any mail to other
domains. I have it configured as a smarthost and I can send
messages using the remote server via telnet. exim's log seems to
indicate that it thinks it delivered the message, but messages aren't
getting out.
A section from my /etc/exim/exim.conf (let me know if you want to see
more :-)) ;
smarthost:
driver = domainlist
transport = remote_smtp
route_list = * mail.rit.edu bydns_a

SOLVED: stalling ppp
I think I have a solution that might work. I went back and renamed the /lib/modules/2.2.19/net/bsd_comp.o module to /lib/modules/2.2.19/net/bsd_comp.o.orig and rebooted. Concentric worked fine after that. Looks like a problem in the module. I didn't see any mention about it in bug track, but don't know if this should be reported as a bug or not. The post I saw also wondered why so few people are seeing this problem. Could it be because Concentric.net uses this compression module and most others don't?

Re: [suggestion] :confusing dselect urge for agressive upgrade
On Tue, Jul 31, 2001 at 10:04:21AM +0200, Francois Taiani wrote: dselect has the default behavior that successfully installed packages are marked as 'installed ok install' in the package status file. That means, as far as I could infer, something like : package installed, do upgrade without question if newer version found and this has the consequence, that after a standard CD ROM install, the first time you connect to a ftp distribution site, dselect spontaneously offers you to download nty *Megabytes* of archives, even if you've only selected a few new small packages. (Which is very confusing the first time, and can be very tedious with a small modem line.) Yes - on the other hand, if you're tracking the stable distribution, this is only going to be security updates. So this is likely to remain as the default behaviour, as we really want people to get security updates automatically where available. Why not have dselect set a package on 'installed ok hold' by default after installation, and add 2 new entries in the dselect menu to globally unhold / hold the complete set of installed packages. These actions are actually there already. Put the cursor on the line saying Updated packages (newer version is available) and press '='. This will put all such packages on hold. If you like, you can do the same for Up to date installed packages. You can press '+' on the same lines to select them for installation again. I've seen that a replacement for dselect is underway as deity. Maybe this behavior has been considered for it, if not I would greatly apprciate it. Much of the work that started out being called deity is now in apt (although there is indeed a partly finished GUI tool called deity), and you can use 'apt-get install package-name' to upgrade individual packages without having the rest of your system automatically upgraded unnecessarily.

Help with Japanese support
Hello, I'm a sysadmin for an international group of scientists, and a recent arrival from Japan was inquiring about the possibility of reading and responding to Japanese encoded email with her Linux box. I remember that at one point there was a Debian-JP group, and IIRC, their packages were fully integrated into Debian. Can someone give me some pointers on how what packages / configurations are necessary to allow my user to communicate in Japanese, while still leaving the majority of the system in English? Thanks!

Re: [suggestion] :confusing dselect urge for agressive upgrade
Thanks for your answer, Colin. Colin Watson wrote: [... dselect updating automatically ...] Yes - on the other hand, if you're tracking the stable distribution, this is only going to be security updates. So this is likely to remain as the default behaviour, as we really want people to get security updates automatically where available. I get the point and agree with you. Maybe security packages could get a special treatment. (See below.) [... installed packages on hold by default ...] These actions are actually there already. Put the cursor on the line saying Updated packages (newer version is available) and press '='. This will put all such packages on hold. If you like, you can do the same for Up to date installed packages. You can press '+' on the same lines to select them for installation again. Bad point for me. Should have read the doc. (But apparently lots of users directly use 'apt --get-selection foo ; $EDITOR M-x query-replace 'install' 'hold' foo ; --set-selection foo' to do the same thing.) In conclusion, I agree that all I want to do can be easily done in dselect. Yet I believe that novice users would very much appreciate such macro actions like Upgrade the whole thing or Upgrade security or Select a few packages only, to ease the path between the user's wish and dselect's behavior. At the time being, dselect seems to upset quite a few people, because though dselect's actions are quite logical, users don't understand the rationale behind them -- e.g. security in the above case). For instance I chose *not* to download the 60MB of archive dselect had pick up for me, but now that I now they might be security related (it might well also be that is was not the stable dist), I may try to find a practical way to get them. It might sound silly, but people which are not expert on linux can really have hard times at the beginning on such stupid stumbling stones. And I'm sure will all want to ease novices' way to linux. [Though you certainly don't stay novice for a long time when you use linux ... ;) Anyway even though: Congratulations for the work done so far, dselect / dpkg / apt are really impressive !
