 Bonjour,
 
 Est-il possible d'éteindre le système à partir d'Icewm ?

 Merci pour vos suggestions.
 
 
Bonsoir,


  j'ai mis (entre autres) les lignes suivantes dans le fichier de config 
~/.icewm/menu :

prog Éteindre app /usr/local/bin/eteindre
prog Redémarrer app /usr/local/bin/redemarrer


les scripts /usr/local/bin/eteindre et /usr/local/bin/redemarrer

 Avec un sudo, ou en tant que root, pas de problèmes.

 Est-ce que des gens dans la même situation auraient aussi le

ppp 2.4.1-4. Tout marche bien avec ppp 2.4.1-3. La principale
difference entre les deux paquets est un patch pour le verrouillage de

Mutt por defecto te ofrece mover los mensajes leidos a una carpeta de
mensajes ya leidos. Esto se puede desactivar si no te interesa.
También puedes tu mismo mover un mensaje a otra carpeta con la letra
's' (la crea si no existe).
Para cambiar la carpeta actual usa 'c'.

 Alguien ha configurado la tarjeta de sonido opti 930 o alguien me puede
 ayudar a configurarla??
 
 Bueno, resulta que ya compile mi kernel con el driver de la tarjeta de
 sonido pero no reproduce bien el sonido, al arrancar me da estos mensajes
 
 MAD16 WSS (82C930) at 0x534 irc 11 dma 3,0
 Mad16/Mozart at 0x330 irq 9 dma 0
 Sound Initialization complete
 
 Esto me hace pensar que voy bien, pero despues aparece esto 13 veces.
 
 Sound: DMA (output) timed out - IRQ/DRQ config error?
 
 Eso me hace pensar que los datos del IRQ y/o el DMA estan mal ¿Como los
 configuro? ¿Tengo que compilar el Kernel de nuevo con los datos correctos?
 ¿Cuales son los datos correctos? ¿Porque me pide 2 IRQs y 2 DMAs si solo
 tengo una tarjeta?
 
 Al arrancar mi PC antes de que arranque linux sale...
 
 Card No.Device No.IRQDMA
 11   53,6OPTi Audio

 Disculpen que sea tan pregunton pero soy nuevo en Linux y no lo veo nada
 facil pero si muy interesante espero me puedan ayudar contestando aunque sea
 solo algunas de mis dudas y les envio mis gracias anticipadas.
 
Hola,

si tienes Windows metido comprueba si esas son las IRQ y DMA que utiliza. Si no
es asi anotalas y ponlas en linux a ver.

Mira tambien en /proc/dma y en /proc/interrupts a ver si estan ocupadas.

Hola,

lo que creo que te esta pasando es que el procmail esta eliminando la
directiva From . No, no es la From: es otra que la utilizan los programas
de correo (pine, mutt, ) para distinguir los diferentes mensajes.
Creo que por ahi puede estar el problema. No se, a mi nunca me sucedio eso.

Re: Problema con el cable modem

2001-09-23 Thread Baltasar Perez
El vie, 21 de sep de 2001, a las 06:16:50 -0500, Gunnar Wolf comento ...
  El caso es que para conectarse lo que hacen es dejar todo
  automático: IP automática, y DNS automática. He estado leyendo sobre el
  tema, pero no he encontrado nada para dejar tantas cosas de forma
  automática. Y me pregunto si alguien de la lista sabe donde puedo
  informarme de ese caso en particular. Entrando un poco más en
  especificaciones la conexión comienza desde mi ordenador, mediante una
  tarjeta de red (que ya está configurada) luego ésta, va conectada a
  dicho MODEM especial, y éste, para la calle.
 
 Casi seguramente te dan estos datos a través del protocolo DHCP. En Debian
 tienes todo lo necesario para usar DHCP - Si no me equivoco, basta con
 poner la siguiente definición en tu /etc/network/interfaces:
 
 auto eth0
 iface eth0 inet dhcp
 
  Y otra cosa, porque me trajeron una tarjeta muy mona, aunque intenté
  configurarla en linux, pero no he visto manera. Es una Realtek
  RTL8139(A) PCI Fast Ethernet. Si alguien sabe de algún sitio donde
  encontrar un módulo que la soporte, etc... que también me lo haga saber,
  por favor...
 
 Tengo una similar en casa... Si no me equivoco, el módulo se llama rt8139.
 Es parte del árbol principal del kernel, pero (al menos en 2.2.19) tienes
 que habilitar Support for experimental drivers para que aparezca la
 opción, y claro, debes activarla antes de compilar tu kernel. Funciona
 bastante decentemente.
 
Hola,

yo uso el modulo 8139too.o que es el mismo que el rt8139.o pero creo
que corregidas algunos fallos.
En las opciones del kernel esta debajo justo del que dice rt8139

Re: pregunta de novato: actualizar kernel.

He  instalado  sid  y  con  la  instalación  limpia  lo primero que he
intentado ha
sido actualizar a la versión de kernel 2.4. Para ello he usado la
herramienta dselect que automáticamente baja e instala la imagen.
Los  scripts  de  configuración  se  quejan porque no tengo una imagen
initrd,
que  es  necesaria  para el paquete de kernel que estoy instalando.

Si el paquete imagen no te lo ha instalado es facil hacer una imagen
initrd. Simplemente teclea esto:

mkinitrd -o /boot/initrd-2.2.16-nuevo /lib/modules/2.2.16-nuevo

cambia 2.2.16-nuevo por el nombre del kernel que hayas metido.

No te olvides de meter en el lilo.conf en la seccion correspondiente
al nuevo kernel la sentencia: initrd=/boot/initrd-2.2.16-nuevo

No entiendo
porqué  es necesaria una imagen initrd en este caso, y porqué no me la
puede
crear  el  programa de instalación. 

Si no me equivoco y si lo hago corrijanme, el initrd lo que hace es una imagen
para hacer un ramdisk y se acelere el proceso de carga.

Para mas info - man initrd

 ¿Que tengo que hacer para terminar
de
instalar  el  nuevo  kernel? ¿Que estoy haciendo mal? Y si no es mucho
pedir...
¿en qué casos se suele usar la imagen initrd y para qué sirve?
gracias,
tx.

Espero que te sirva lo que te dije.

La ayuda de verdad la tienes que buscar primero en la documentacion y
luego si tienes problemas pregunta. La cosa no es que cada vez que tengas
que hacer algo alguien te de una lista de instrucciones. 

Mira en http://www.linuxdoc.org para encontrar la documentacion que
necesitas, ademas puedes usar man, info y mira en /usr/doc de tu
sistema. Si buscas documentacion en espanol existen otros sitios a los que
probablemente alguien en esta lista te puede apuntar.

Re: pregunta de novato: actualizar kernel. _SOLUCIONADO_

2001-09-23 Thread txemitron

Siguiendo las instrucciones de Baltasar acerca de como crear la imagen
initrd he solucionado el tema sin problemas. (Muchas gracias a los que
habeis contestado).

De todas formas, y tratandose de una operación tan mecánica me quedo con la
duda de si existe la posibilidad de que dicha operación la haga
automáticamente el script de instalación del nuevo kernel compilado. Esta es
la propuesta del script de configuración, que te insta a añadir una linea en
un archivo de configuración en /etc. Yo no añadí dicha linea porque dicho
archivo de configuración no existia en mi instalación de sid y tampoco me
atraví a añadir uno vacío. ¿Sería esta la forma correcta de hacerlo?

herramienta dselect que automáticamente baja e instala la imagen.
Los  scripts  de  configuración  se  quejan porque no tengo una imagen
initrd,
que  es  necesaria  para el paquete de kernel que estoy instalando.

Si el paquete imagen no te lo ha instalado es facil hacer una imagen
initrd. Simplemente teclea esto:

mkinitrd -o /boot/initrd-2.2.16-nuevo /lib/modules/2.2.16-nuevo

cambia 2.2.16-nuevo por el nombre del kernel que hayas metido.

No te olvides de meter en el lilo.conf en la seccion correspondiente
al nuevo kernel la sentencia: initrd=/boot/initrd-2.2.16-nuevo

No entiendo
porqué  es necesaria una imagen initrd en este caso, y porqué no me la
puede
crear  el  programa de instalación.

Si no me equivoco y si lo hago corrijanme, el initrd lo que hace es una
imagen
para hacer un ramdisk y se acelere el proceso de carga.

Para mas info - man initrd

 ¿Que tengo que hacer para terminar
de
instalar  el  nuevo  kernel? ¿Que estoy haciendo mal? Y si no es mucho
pedir...
¿en qué casos se suele usar la imagen initrd y para qué sirve?
gracias,
tx.

Espero que te sirva lo que te dije.

ciao

Hola, veras mi porblema es el siguiente:

Resulta que no soy capaz de visualizar las fuentes correctamente en Mozilla

correspondiente a las xfree 4.1.0 (o sea xfonts-75dpi 4.1.0) pero si se

No.

Pero puedes hacerte una red local entre ambos y conectar solo desde uno de

que hacer ip-masquerading.

Claro que si quieres usar los modems para cosas distintas que no sea

Slött nfs.

Jag har problem med en nfs-mountning. Det går väldigt slött att läsa
från den. Handlar om kanske 200kbyte per sekund på ett 100mbit nät. Det
är mountat med rsize=8192,wsize=8192. Jag har testat med kernel 2.4.10
och 2.4.7. Stödet för nfs har jag som moduler. Det verkar gå
normalsnabbt att skriva. Det spelar ingen roll vilken server jag mountar
från. Andra personer på samma nät med liknande system har normal
prestanda.

Oi,

Você pode instalar a imagem (apt-get install kernel-image-2.4.9*) ou então 
pegar o source do kernel e compilar do modo Debian usando o make-kpkg (que é 
o mais recomendado).

Eu já postei aqui, uma época atrás, a minha opinião de que a
comunidade Debian precisa adotar uma auxilang (língua auxiliar), ou
seja, uma língua artificial. 

O Debian está em processo de tradução para mais de 80 idiomas. Muitos
deles, não são ocidentais (como tamil, chinês, somali, etc.) O quanto
não se perde por não termos uma línua comum?

Seria apenas democrático, e dentro do espírito Debian.

Depois de constatar que Esperanto é uma má opção, porque é difícil,
esbarrei na Glosa.

A Glosa é prontamente inteligível. Sua estrutura gramatical é simples,
e se assemelha a línguas não-ocidentais, tais como o chinês. Isso pode
parecer complicado, mas não é: em chinês, diz-se eu ir ontem [fui],
eu ir amanhã [vou], eliminando a necessidade de flexionar o verbo.

O vocabulário Glosa é baseado em latim e grego. A justificativa é que
todos estamos familiarizados, pelo amplo uso nas ciências. Por
exemplo, creio que todos sabemos que Kronos é tempo (cronologia,
etc.)

Veja baixo, um pequeno texto sobre o comuptador ENIAC, em glosa e em
inglês:

Uma dica sobre o texto acima: pa é uma partícula que modifica a
palavra anterior, dando-lhe sentido de passado. Pa ponde é pesava
(ponde, de ponderar).

Confira Glosa em http://www.glosa.org

Se alguém quer formar uma Glosa-taskforce para propor a adoção dessa
língua artificial na comunidade, me escreve em PVT.

X11 em pt_BR

2001-09-23 Thread Itamar Grochowski Rocha
Olá pessoal,

Já faz um tempo estou tentando consertar um comportamento estranho que
notei no meu sistema de janelas. Quando o chamo pela linha de comando,
os menus do WindowMaker e alguns de aplicativos baseados em GTK aparecem
em português, entretanto, se o X11 é iniciado com um display manager os
menus aparecem em inglês e (o mais esquisito) o Eterm para de funcionar
com acentos. 

Este comportamento do Eterm é muito estranho, pois quando chamo um outro
Eterm da linha de comando do primeiro, no segundo a acentuação funciona
direitinho. E isto só ocorre com o Eterm, no Xterm tudo funciona
normalmente.

Já tentei inserir variáveis nos scripts que chamam o wdm. E nada.
Manuais do xdm, wdm, X11, etc. E nada! Não sei se dá pra resolver isto, 
mas desconfio que esteja relacionado com o X11.

Bom. Se alguém tiver alguma dica eu agradeço antecipadamente.

xfree e woody

2001-09-23 Thread cosmo
All

Estou novamente com problema com o xfree do woody.

Instalei o woody em uma maquina com monitor Studioworks 55i (15 pol) e placa
de video Trident 9680. Segundo o manual do monitor a frequencia horizontal eh
30-54 e frequencia vertical eh 50-90. Quando digito startx, o Xfree e o
Enlightenment sao ativados normalmente. O problema eh com a imagem que se forma
na tela, fica distorcida. A imagem fica meio gorda, na parte vertical esta
certo, mas na horizontal esta com problema. Alterei o arquivo
/etc/X11/XF86Config-4 para os parametros HorizSync   30-54 e VertRefresh 50-90 e
mesmo assim nao deu certo.


Alguem teria alguma ideia do que esta errado ?!?!?!

Drive Zip 100 Paralela

2001-09-23 Thread Dany
Oi Lista,

Eu tenho uma drive Zip 100 ligada a porta paralela naquele sistema
impressora/zip em paralelo.
O que acontece e que eu não sei instalar a zip no linux e já fiz modprobe
ppa e o resultado foi este:

  As of 31/Aug/1998 Iomega started shipping parallel

Sadly, the answer to his questions is: either run unstable and risk the
occasional b0rked system or run potato and deal with the outdated
packages on an individual basis.

Unfortunately, Debian has never been very good at keeping up with
upstream development.  They said that the testing distribution and
package pools would help speed things up a bit, but it's not likely that
woody will be released fewer than 18 months after potato.

Sure, stable is always well tested, but by the time it becomes available
the software included in it is so old that nobody wants to run it
anymore.

Well, almost. I run Potato on machines that I don't generally want to log

it becomes the new stable release.

 Are you running it on potato or woody? I tried running it

 It installs but when I start it up, I get the following error

Way OT: getting values of list of variables

2001-09-23 Thread Jeremy

Hi,

I'm sorry about this being so OT, but I've been searching around in
documentation (man pages, books, scripting HOWTOs, etc) for a several hours
now, and I can't find anything that will answer my question.

I have a series of variables that I'm importing to a bash script from another
file, and I need a way to run a loop to echo the contents of each one in
sequence.  As an example, say this file has the following:

var1=data1
var2=data2
var3=data3
var4=data4

Is there some way I can make my script start with var1 and echo each one
through var4 WITHOUT hardcoding each seperate variable into the script?

I hope my question isn't too foggy, but I'm mighty tired at the moment, and I
can't guarantee that my brain is functioning correctly.  I GREATLY appreciate
any help that anyone can offer, whether it be an answer or a suggestion of a
place to look for more help.

Thanks,
Jeremy



gradually upgrading from glibc2.1 to glibc2.2 ?

2001-09-23 Thread Krzys Majewski
Hi folks
I've got a (highly customized) debian/potato box.
(If you're tempted to reply at this point with 
why the hell aren't you running debian/unstable, 
don't.)
One day the current unstable glibc2.2 debian will become
stable (or maybe it has already?) and I will want to 
upgrade.
I don't want to do a dist-upgrade though, because it
will almost certainly break something on my very 
patchy box.[B
Is there a nice way to upgrade gradually?
For example, if I upgrade the base package from 
potato (glibc2.1) to soon-to-be-stable (glibc2.2), will
my box boot, or do I need to upgrade other things as well?[B

I do know what I'm doing but I'm too lazy to look through 
the package contents and wanted to poke the list first,
so spare me the usual dist-upgrade or bust lecture, please.

cheers,
chris

http://kmself.home.netcom.com/Download/rant-o-matic.tar.gz

Feel free to repost the following:

The above is an example of the Nigerian Scam, also called 419 Letters,
or just plain 419.  Most 419 letters and emails originate from or are
traceable back to Nigeria. However, some originate from other nations,
mostly also West African nations such as Ghana, Togo, Liberia, Sierra
Leone, Ivory Coast ( Cote D'Ivoire ) etc.   

It's the current wrinkle of a decades-old scam that nets tens of
millions of dollars per year, and may be the third largest industry in
Nigeria.  The 419 Coalition believes that it is the elites from which
successive governments of Nigeria have been drawn who are the scammers.
Expect little cooperation from Nigerian authorities.

Information in this notice is compiled from various sources, links
below.  Keep reading for reporting information.


The Scam operates as follows: the target receives an unsolicited fax,
email, or letter concerning Nigeria containing either a money laundering
or other illegal proposal OR you may receive a Legal and Legitimate
business proposal by normal means.  Invariably, the proposition involves
resources which are somehow locked up:  oil or other invoice problems, a
bequest, money cleaning, or misallocated funds.

At some point, the victim is asked to pay up front an Advance Fee of
some sort.  If the victim pays the Fee, there are many Complications
which require still more advance payments until the victim either quits,
runs out of money, or both.

 You could try to disable the hardware cursor and use the software

 still appeared visible as a little splotch in the middle of the

It seems to be something to do with the actual mouse, because I changed

I went back to the nv driver (a) because I don't see any difference
between the two (perhaps because I don't play games?) and (b) from a
possibly misplaced desire for non-proprietary `purism'.

Just download a pre-compiled *.tar.gz at mozilla.org.

Test it in your $HOME and if it's running fine copy it to /usr/local/mozilla

 second: host and nslookup are DNS utilities, so they don't give a
 flying food about /etc/hosts. as you said, ping and telnet work fine,
 so your systems are good. nslookup and host both always contact the
 DNS server, never look into /etc/hosts.

True. The question, then, is:

Are there any DNS command line tools that do DNS lookups using the same
methods that most apps do? In other words, they pay attention to

 I compiled my own custom 2.4.9 (and 2.4.8) kernel with devfs mounted
 at boot time, my NIC driver, VESA framebuffer and initrd support.
 However, neither of these kernels will boot.  The fb stuff works and

 Whenever I apt-get gpm I loose control of X. Anyone no how to get gpm +
 X to play nice?

Good sir dman once wrote:

That is caused by two apps (gpm and X) trying to access the hardware

HDD Kernel messages...

2001-09-23 Thread Sven Gaerner
Hi,

I got the following kernel messages mainly after boot up.

kernel: hda: dma_intr: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
kernel: hda: dma_intr: error=0x84 { DriveStatusError BadCRC }

My kernel is 2.4.9 and is configured to use multi mode
(CONFIG_IDEDISK_MULTI_MODE=y).

My harddisk is an Maxtor 20GB and the used filesystem is reiserfs.

Thanks in advance.

Bye,

Re: [LIH] uid 99 + How can I have more than one Super user on Linux !!!!

OK , but is there any way that I can have/make more than one super-users ? To 
this
end , can I play off a uid and make a person a super-user (my experiment 
already did
not work - the guy I rewarded with a uid of 40 , was absolutely a normal user in
every sense of the term , with not a modicum of super-user powers !)
I man-ed sudo , but all the wording was incomprehensible , so I still 
do not
know how to get say , user1 to sudo on a command. I suppose there are a hundred

Installing potato from remote CDs

2001-09-23 Thread Wolfgang Hlawatsch
After days of trying, reading manuals, surfing the internet I ask now my 
questions on this place:

I am going to install Linux on two computers, call them BIG and SMALL computer. 
Only the BIG one has a CD-ROM. Installing Linux on the BIG one - there is no 
question.

For the SMALL one I made the boot floppies and the driver floppies. That works.

Problems:

I want to telnet the SMALL. It does not allow access. In hosts.allow I placed 
ALL. in hosts the IP of the BIG is also mentioned. I tried everything, but 
SMALL wants to remain as a single.

Then I want to use the CD-ROM from the BIG for installing the system. I can 
mount the cdrom of the BIG. NFS connection is possible. But installing programs 
in SMALL do not recognize the whole cd-set of BIG. Just that CD which is 
presently mounted.

Also, once I accessed the BIG cdrom via nfs from SMALL, BIG does no more allow 
to unmount the cdrom. Even when SMALL is down.  I get the message that the CD 
is busy.

I use:

 Debian GNU/Linux 2.2 r0 Potato - Unofficial i386 Binary- CDs from Lehmanns

Re: SSL packages (LDAP PAM NSS) +

2001-09-23 Thread Tarjei Huse
Hia, 


I usually build my own .debs :) For a very fine guide to all things ssl,
ekrberos and ldap, have a look here:
http://www.bayour.com. Mr. Turbo has done a great job making it easyer to rock
with debian. 

I was just looking for a simple way to let my debs be the domain of apt-get :).
If I am to use debian on more than one machine, I cannot use all my time
rebuilding debs.

 I used the slapd, libpam-ldap, and libnss-ldap (plus dependencies) packages
 from Woody to do so. I also used the PADL migration tools (maybe someone
 should package these and put them as recommended for the two libXXX-ldap
 packages).

Agree. :)

 I don't intend to do either for now. If you find an easier way (a
 prepackaged .deb way, preferably) please let me know. 
This was my original question =)

 doing #1, but the sheer number of options to openldap combined with my
 minimal knowledge of changing Debian package configuration prior to the
 simple build, stopped me until I had more time on my hands.
 
 On the other hand, I would be very interested to know if you or anyone has
 a PAM/NSS/LDAP installation on Debian using slave LDAP servers as hot
 backups. I haven't seen any documented way of doing this anywhere, such as
 providing a list of servers which can be attempted.

Have a look at the above link for roundrobin dns querys and the like. 
 
 On the other hand, I do not yet see a way to do this with NSS. I would
 welcome pointers.

I belive you can do it in the ldap.conf file.

More details: Problems with crosscompilation of 2.0.38 on potato with 2.4.9 kernel

2001-09-23 Thread Wojciech Zabolotny
I just want to add a few more details to my previous post:

 I receive the following errors:
 make[2]: *** [fastdep] Error 135
 make[2]: Leaving directory /tmp/linux/drivers/char'
 make[1]: *** [fastdep] Error 2
 What is the cause of that error, and how to cure it?

The source of problem is the mkdep program, which fails causing the bus
error. I have taken the mkdep.c file form the 2.4.9 kernel and replaced
the old version in 2.0.38 kernel tree with it.
Now the kernel compiles smoothly, but I'm a little worried if I haven't 
introduced another difficult to find error (i dislike solutions which I
don't understand ;-) ).

 OK, you run xvidtune, from an xtermas/rxvt, and you get the display
 like you want it.  Then click the 'show' button and the settings will
 be printed to the xterm screen.  Do that for all of the different
 resoltions.  Write them down!  Then transfer them to your xf86config-4

Sorry, what I mean is: I've got the values from xvidtune - where do I
insert them in my XF86Config-4?  The relevant (I think) part is...

And he is shure that you can run this tool on Debian? Much surces are not

diffrent on each system. And there are also diffrent device files and so
on.

I don't know why you need this cnet. How i mean the debian package netbase
will do the same. Every Linux system acts like a network. Even if you have
it installed on a single box. Linux is a multi user system. Isn't it
possible that cnet makes trouble cause there are running all the Debian
network tools and daemons too? Or du you fixed it and my idea isn't right?

DSL connection has stopped working in Debian.

2001-09-23 Thread Jack Andrews
The setup.

-Debian Woody with DSL connection (eth0) acting as router for
NAT'd LAN (eth1)
-Using dhc-client for DHCP on the DSL line

Everything was working fine until a reboot yesterday.  Now the DSL
connection is busted.

During bootup, when eth0 is brought up, this is the first thing that
appears:

Eth0: Media is unconnected, link down, or incompatible connection.

Now, I've been getting this message during bootup for a while now, but
after a long period of time, the system would continue to boot up and
the network connection would work normally.  Not now, though.
After a long timeout period, dhc-client prints out a lot of DHCP
information that makes it look like it contacted the DHCP server correctly,
but with a Reason=TIMEOUT line at the end that I haven't seen before.

Once the box finished booting, Eth0 is listed as not being up.  If I bring it
up, I'm told that it's already up.  If I ifdown it, then ifup it again, there's
another Media is unconnected error and a return to a prompt, but the
interface is listed as up after that.  In the system log after I do that, I can
see that dhc-client has gone through the DISCOVER, OFFER, REQUEST,
ACK process, complete with a Bound to 216.63.xyz.xyz message.

At this point, I can ping the IP of the DHCP server, and it works.  I can
ping random IPs on the same subnet (probably other DSL customers),
and it works.  But I can't ping the gateway address (216.63.148.0) or
anything outside the subnet.   I can't ping the nameservers, because they're
on a different subnet.  Pinging anything outside the subnet yields
Network Unreachable.  Pinging the ISP's router yields no replies.

The route command shows this:

216.63.148.0 * 255.255.254.0 U 0 0 0 eth0

I'm wondering if maybe the ISP's router (216.63.148.0) is just down, but
this problem has persisted after nearly 14 hours, so I'd think they'd have
noticed by now.   Or it's possible that the router just ignores pings, and the
problem is on my end.

I'd greatly appreciate any suggestions here.  This Debian box is a web
server and mail server and is considered mission critical (yeah, I know
it's dumb to trust a DSL line for anything important, but times are
tough), and I'll have some unhappy users to deal with if I can't get this
worked out.  Thanks a lot!

You should upgrade to the xine-lib-d4d Debian package (just a name
change). I don't remember where I picked it up, but search via the
web-sites in /usr/doc/xine-ui/README.Debian and use the link to the
precompiled xine-packages, where you can find the library .deb.

Be aware that there is a plugin available for the new version which is
capable of menues and other stuff (apt-get install xine-dvdnav --
unstable only!)

 Does Debian 2.2 r0 support the ReiserFS? How can i do it? I can't find

  Reiser warns to avoid 2.4.9, put recent .10-pre patches work fine.  I am
using .10-pre9 that seems to work well thusfar.  I did not need to use
additional patches from Reiser: whatever they submitted, Linus
incorporated into the 10-pre* kernels by now. 
  In fdisk, you must give the partition type 0x83: Linux Native
(this includes ext2fs, Reiser, etc).
  Then use the ReiserFS tools to format your partition for ReiserFS.
I don't think there is an up-to-date Debian package: get them from
http://www.reiserfs.org/
  I guess this means you need to install the tools on a current system
with a 2.4.10 kernel, hang the new disk in the system, format it, and make
sure you boot with a 2.4.10 kernel when you want to install Debian on the
new disk.

etherconf reconf

2001-09-23 Thread Tarjei Huse
Hi, 

this may sound like a stupid questions, but I'm a bit new to debian.

I've installed debian via the progeny debian distro. Thereafter I changed my
sources.list to debian unstable and did a lot of dist-upgrades etc.

The problems I am wondering about are:
a) Where is the equivalent of redhats rc.local file? I.e. somwhere I can set
things that are done just after everything else has started up?

b) how can I rerun etherconf? My machine thinks it should use dhcp for some
reason. I can change the behavior fine with ifconfig  route, but I'd rather do
it ther right (and probably debian) way :) Also is a rerun of etherconf the
right thing?

c) How do I update my keyboard and language setting from us to norwegian?

Many thanx for all answers!

Tarjei

apache .htpasswd problems

2001-09-23 Thread Martin F Krafft
hi dudes,
trying to get apache to authorize users through .htaccess. this isn't
my first time, but it's not working and i am clueless.

i can either configure the following settings via .htaccess (having
set AllowOverride AuthConfig for Directory /, or i can put the lines
into the Directory / container:

  AuthType Basic
  AuthName admin.home.madduck.net
  AuthUserFile .htpasswd
  AuthGroupFile /dev/null
  Require valid-user

no matter where i place .htpasswd, or how i name it, whether i give
its location relatively to ServerRoot or absolute anywhere on the
machine, apache complains in its error.log that

[error] user madduck not found: /

and a `stat` call on .htpasswd shows that it isn't even accessed.
.htaccess is accessed (atime update), but i can't get it to consider
the .htpasswd file.

any clues?

Re: .config in kernel source?

Martin F. Krafft [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
 okay. so it's really just basic vanilla source (with patches
 applied)?  so the actual kernel data (not image) is in
 kernel-headers?

Kernel-source contains a tarball /usr/src/kernel-source-x.x.x.tar.bz2
which has everything you need to compile a kernel the traditional way
or make packages kernel-image, kernel-docs and kernel-headers.

Kernel-headers contains just the headers, the .h-files.

 what do you do if another piece of software needs both, headers and
 source, corresponding to the current kernel (e.g. vmware)? it isn't
 happy with just kernel-source (unconfigured), and it isn't happy
 with just kernel-headers (no source files). 

But vmware _is_ happy with kernel-headers. I have only kernel-image
and kernel-headers installed in my laptop and vmware modules compile
just fine. (At least vmmon.o and vmnet.o do.)

You do not need both packages. You either install kernel-source which
includes the source _and_ the headers (and docs) _or_ you install
kernel-image plus, if needed, kernel-headers.

I, for instance, do not have enough diskspace on my laptop to hold
kernel sources, I have all the sources in my other machine at which I
make packages kernel-image and kernel-headers to be installed on the
laptop.

Oh, and what comes to the subject of this message, the .config is
included in kernel-image also, as /boot/config-x.x.x.

I saw that too. I had similar problems with fonts. It
turned out that since I didn't initial do an

running X and apt-get from a virtual tty, that some
parts of Xfree86 3.x were installed along with the 4.x
fonts. The 3.x Xserver was in some instances confused
by the 4.x fonts. I got rid of 3.x and have all 4.x

---BeginMessage---
I freshly installed Debian (Progeny actually) on a new disk.  First I got
the problem that X isn't working the way I like it, and then I got the
problem that I cannot find documentation on how exactly X is supposed to
work on current Debian systems.  Since you are the package maintainer, I
thought I should write you directly.

I really hate xdm (gmd, kdm).  I want to do a startx whenever I need
X, usually as a mortal.  However, on my latest installation I am told that
this user is not allowed to start X.  Says who, why not, and what can I do
about it?  The /usr/X11R6/bin/X program is setuid and setgid root, as it
is on my previous installation, but when I run it I get that message
anyhow.  I tried tracing what happens in and after the startx script, but
I lost track.

On debian-user someone suggested that this is configured in
/etc/X11/Xserver, but I believe that that file is obsoleted: it is not in
my new install, `dpkg -S` doesn't know about it (apparently on my old
installation it is a relict of a previous Debian version), and I cannot
find it documented anyways.  Note that this file used to contain the name
of the actual X server, but apparently that has been replaced by an
old-fashiond symlink.

So I like to know exactly how the various X components are put together
and configured in current Debian systems.  Is that documented
somewhere?  What I do find are release notes and generic X stuff that
apparently does not relate well to how the Debian system actually is put
together.
* What is the preferred way of starting X?
* What is the proper sequence of events?
* What exactly are the executables, scripts, and config files that are
used, and where are they supposed to live?
* How and where is all that configured:
- X server
- access (mortals must be able to run X, not just root or gdm!)
- programs to start (desktop manager, window manager, application
launcher, initial programs)
- X defaults.

Any guidance will be welcome.
