Debian kdm menu session SessionType
Bonjour, Avec Debian, Lenny, Je cherche depuis un bon moment dans quel fichier modifier les entrées des sessions e17, fluxbox, xfce, kde, gnome, du manager kdm Avant ( woody ) c'était dans /etc/sessions a la ligne SessionType. Maintenant ( lenny ) j'ai fouillé tous les répertoires, j'ai utilisé updatedb+locate et le moteur go/linux sans succés. Problème : j'ai des entrées en double du genre FluxBox et fluxbox qui ne fonctionnent pas et que je veux éliminer pour que les utilisateurs invite ne pensent pas que Linux c'est ect... Un conseil, un lien SVP ;-) Merci d'avance -- Windows un jour, Debian toujours ! http://counter.li.org/ 257 481

Samba sur Debian 4.0 et stockage des mots de passe
Salut. Je suis en train de réinstaller mon serveur perso (un vrai bordel je vous dis), et lors de l'install de Samba, j'ai comme un petit souci: L'install se passe bien, mais je vois (j'ai plus les messages en tête) qu'il semble récupérer les users Linux pour les intégrer à Samba. Mon souci, c'est que je ne vois ni où ni comment il fait ça. J'avais l'habitude de jouer avec smbpasswd et le fichier /etc/samba/smbpasswd, mais il semble que ce n'est pas là qu'il mets ça. Il a chargé un paquet samba ldap, mais quand je tente des commandes du genre 'smbldap-usershow' ou autre, il ne peut pas se connecter à ldap. Normal je ne l'ai pas installé. Donc la question est: Savez vous où et comment une 'fresh install' de samba sur un 4.0 gère les mots de passe? Google et la doc samba ne sont pas super précis, je pense que c'est lié à l'empaquetage, mais j'avoue que je sêche un peu. Merci d'avance.

Que se lanza segun el estandar de debian: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/etc$ cat crontab | grep weekly 47 6* * 7 roottest -x /usr/sbin/anacron || ( cd / run-parts --report /etc/cron.weekly ) Vamos, a las 6:47, cada 7 dias...

problem making symbolic link to blackdown amd64 java plugin library file...
Dear Debianists, I use Etch 4.0 (r0) AMD64 version on a AMD64 box. I use Iceweasel. I removed the gcj java plugin from my browser I had been using because it could not run applet properly . I then downloaded the amd64 version of blackdown j2re-1.4.2-03. I then followed the instructions for installing it. I moved the file into the /usr/local directory. I then ran chmod +x j2re-1.4.2-03-linux-amd64.bin I then did ./j2re-1.4.2-03-linux-amd64.bin and installed the java files BUT I did all this as root.. Was that naughty? If it was does anyone know how I uninstall it and start again as a user? I then (still root) did the symbolic link assignment. ln -s /usr/local/j2re1.4.2/plugin/amd64/mozilla/libjavaplugin_oji.so \ /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/ I got the following error message: localhost:/usr/local# ln -s /usr/local/j2re1.4.2/plugin/amd64/mozilla/libjavaplugin_oji.so \ /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins ln: creating symbolic link ` /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins' to `/usr/local/j2re1.4.2/plugin/amd64/mozilla/libjavaplugin_oji.so': No such file or directory localhost:/usr/local# I wondered if I had a spelling error etc so I did localhost:/usr/local# ls -l /usr/local/j2re1.4.2/plugin/amd64/mozilla/libjavaplugin_oji.so -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 246608 2005-11-23 21:15 /usr/local/j2re1.4.2/plugin/amd64/mozilla/libjavaplugin_oji.so localhost:/usr/local# It seemed to find the file.

I did a modprobe on usb-serial and ftdi_sio and they both load great.
What gave you the idea to modprobe ftdi_sio? Is that somewhere in the
kannel manual or was this module loaded automatically?
...after
loading what am i suppose to see? Should it say ttyUSB0 device ready or
somehting like that ?
There is not always a message in the syslog about the new device node.
You just have to check if a new ttyS*, ttyUSB*, or something like that
has been created in /dev/. Also, we still don't know for sure if your
mobile phone has to appear as a tty device for kannel, we are just
guessing based of that one line in the example configuration.
The strange thing is that i have a bluetooth dongle --that is in one of th
usb ports..and that works ..b/c i am able to hook it up to my phone.
I am further able to connect to it with rfcomm. It looks like i can take
the modem off the hook..but I am at a dead end there..because i can not
reference the device in Kannel.
I now had a look at the kannel website. I cannot make heads or tails of
their documentation. I have no idea if their software can work via
rfcomm (or OBEX, or whatever).
my dmesg looks like this:
drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c: USB Serial support registered for
FTDI USBSerial Device
usbcore: registered new driver ftdi_sio
drivers/usb/serial/ftdi_sio.c: v1.4.3:USB FTDI Serial Converters Driver
and my lsusb looks like this:
Bus 002 Device 003: ID 0bb4:0bce High Tech Computer Corp.
Bus 002 Device 002: ID 0a12:0001 Cambridge Silicon Radio, Ltd Bluetooth
Dongle (HCI mode)
Bus 002 Device 001: ID :
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 0d49:5020 Maxtor
Bus 001 Device 001: ID :
The device ID 0bce does not seem to be in USB IDs database. I just
updated it with the update-usbids command. Here is what I find in my
/var/lib/usbutils/usb.ids:
0bb4 High Tech Computer Corp.
00ce mmO2 XDA GSM/GPRS Pocket PC
00cf SPV C500 Smart Phone
0a02 Himalaya GSM/GPRS Pocket PC
0a51 SPV C400 / T-Mobile SDA GSM/GPRS Pocket PC
I found this in the kernel sources in drivers/usb/serial/ipaq.c:
{ USB_DEVICE(0x0BB4, 0x00CE) }, /* HTC USB Sync */
{ USB_DEVICE(0x0BB4, 0x00CF) }, /* HTC USB Modem */
{ USB_DEVICE(0x0BB4, 0x0A02) }, /* PocketPC USB Sync */
{ USB_DEVICE(0x0BB4, 0x0A51) }, /* SmartPhone USB Sync */
This ipaq module seems to support PDAs and SmartPhones based on Windows
CE 3.0 or PocketPC 2002 operating systems. The good news is that I also
see this mentioned:
{ USB_DEVICE(0x0BB4, 0x0BCE) }, /* High Tech Computer Corp */
Maybe you get lucky with modprobe ipaq. I have kernel 2.6.22 with
version 0.5 of the ipaq module. You can see your available version with
modinfo ipaq.
Generally speaking, the vendor ID (0bb4) and the device ID (0bce) can be
helpful for google searches since they are often the quickest way to
find linux-related pages for your device.
and my lsmod looks like this:
usbserial 39152 1 ftdi_sio
hci_usb22812 2
bluetooth 61572 7 rfcomm,l2cap,hci_usb
usb_storage87616 1
scsi_mod 153008 3 sd_mod,libata,usb_storage
ide_core 147584 5
ide_generic,ide_cd,usb_storage,generic,amd74xx
[...]
where would it tell me that the phone is this this ttty* device???
If you see a likely candidate in /dev/ you can run
udevinfo -a -n /dev/whatever
to see if this note is related to your device. If all else fails you can
do a brute-force search: Run
find /dev/ | sort before.txt
before you plug in the phone. Then plug it in, turn it on, modprobe all
the modules and wait a few seconds. After that, run:
find /dev/ | sort after.txt
This command will then show you all the device nodes that are new in
after.txt:
comm -3 before.txt after.txt

I installed j2re-1.4.2-01-linux-amd64.bin instead of the 03 version with make-jpkg and the java has correctly installed. I then went to the distillation applet web site I mentioned in an earlier posting to see if I could get the applet to work that failed to work properly with the gcj plugin I got with the standard amd64 Etch installation.. Sadly I got the same error as before. If you go to this web site: http://tierling.home.texas.net/ and go on the vessel volume applet you get a nice bunch of boxes that you can enter numbers in with a calculate button underneath them. You can run the applet over and over again changing the parameters in it and getting different volumes for the vessel. I think its a good example of what an applet can do. But the distillation applet doesn't work properly. The blue calculate button at the bottom of the window is not created. So you can't re run the applet with new parameters in it. So the applet is useless. If you run the applet in e.g. Internet Explorer on Windows then the calculate button is created.. Something is wrong with the java we are using in the gcj and blackdown plugins we are using in Etch AMD64 land. Either that or MR Tierling's java is a little wonky in some subtle way so that the plugins don't read it correctly except in Windows land.

problem running distillation simulation applet with amd64 java.....
From: Michael Fothergill [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: problem running distillation simulation applet with amd64 java. Date: Sat, 11 Aug 2007 17:41:27 + From: Michael Fothergill [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: problem running distillation simulation applet with amd64 java. Date: Sat, 11 Aug 2007 17:22:14 + Dear Debian Java folks, I run Etch 4.0 r(0) on I use Iceweasel and I recently installed java-gcj-compat-plugin from synaptic. I then went to the following web site: http://tierling.home.texas.net/ This guy has generously put a bunch of java applets on the site than can simulate various engineering pieces of kit. I went on there and ran some of the applets. The vessel volume one worked fine. It has a final line at the bottom with a calculate button and a print ready button. The calculate button allows you to run the volume calculation again after changing the parameters in the above buttons for the vessel. You get sensible results when you change the parameters. But if you go on the distillation simulation there is a problem. The applet runs BUT it does not produce the last line at the bottom which should have a similar calculate and print ready buttons. This means that you can't rerun the calculation with new parameters etc. In effect the applet is useless I wondered if there could be a problem with the java plugin I was using. So I found an IT guy at work who uses Internet explorer plus java plugin and Windows etc and looked on the same web page and ran the applet for the distillation simulation. It worked. I got the final calculate and print ready buttons. He thought I needed to upgrade the java I am using. I wondered if it meant that the java-gcj-compat-plugin deb file has an error in it somewhere. So removed the java-gcj-compat-plugin using synaptic and then I downloaded the amd64 jre file from the blackdown site (version 01) and installed it with the java-package fakeroot make-jpkg commands etc and then installed the deb file that I made from it with the dpkg command. I then went back on Shane Tierling's web site and tried the distillation applet again. I still get exactly the same problem. Something is wrong with the java we are using in the gcj and blackdown plugins we are using in Etch AMD64 land. Either that or MR Tierling's java is a little wonky in some subtle way so that the plugins don't read it correctly except in Windows land. I will have to run this applet on my pals Windows box Never mind. Unless you java folks have a way to get this applet to work. Comments appreciated. Regards Michael Fothergill _ Get Pimped!

Reboot loses LAN connection
Strange behaviour on my laptop. Not sure if it's hardware or OS. Running unstable and apart from a couple of problems (solved) all has been well until about 4 days ago. Since then if I reboot or shutdown and do not disconnect the power, either by switching off at the mains or physically disconnecting the plug, the laptop loses it's LAN connection. This laptop is used 95% of the time at home plugged into a DLink router. When I moved in here I cabled up the whole place so I could easily locate workstations, laptops etc where I wanted. I've tried different cables, different ports on the router but no difference. My thought is that the laptop MOBO is failing but if anyone can tell me different I would be happy to hear as I can't afford to replace it.

correct kernel for etch - i386 - intel celeron
Hi all, I am hoping someone can shed some light regarding kernel choice. I got a new pc, celeron 2.6. but before I trash a working Etch taken from my 1.8 celeron I thought I would test the install on a spare 10gb drive. Using expert install you are presented with 4 choices of kernel but no hint as to the differences. I chose ... [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ uname -a Linux skutter 2.6.18-4-686 #1 SMP Wed May 9 23:03:12 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux ... purely because it was the newest and I made the same choice with my 1.8 celeron which has worked reliably for some time now :) Googling (badly and probably without the correct words) over the last 2 days has got me no wiser. Now the 2.6 machine seems to be working fine after some display tweaking but I am curious to know if this information, ie. the differences in the offered kernels and how to chose is mentioned anywhere on Debian or the web. I believe SMP stands for multi processor? (which mine isn't) but could I have made a better choice, have I made the wrong choice? Many thanks in advance. del -- D. M.

Re: How to add dir to path
Hi Wayne,
I have never seen this way of defining a path [ PATH=~/XX:${PATH} ]
These lines come from .bash_profile:
# set PATH so it includes user's private bin if it exists
if [ -d ~/bin ] ; then
PATH=~/bin:${PATH}
fi
I learned PATH=a path:a new path everything inclosed in quotes. I
think (?) i tried your way yesterday and got strange results but I
deleted that test file so
Of course I tried PATH=~/XX:$PATH before, but when that didn't work,
I tried it the way .bash_profile showed me.
Manon.

Re: less, exit but left content on screen
Tong Sun wrote: I remember that I used to be able to exit 'less' by command key 'x' or something so that the content just viewed is left on screen, instead of being cleared and restored to the screen before invoking 'less'. But I found there is no such capability in current less (version 394). Or is there? The issue is whether the terminal uses an alternate screen buffer or not. If the terminal does not then your screen contents always remain. If so then they still remain, just in the alternate screen buffer. Using the standard xterm the control-middle mouse button will display many options of which one is Show Alternate Screen. It is possible to flip back and forth (inconveniently) to see this manually switch to the alternate screen buffer. I am not sure whether my memory is correct or not, but I think such capability, leaving the just viewed content on screen, is desirable in certain circumstances. I hope such capability be implemented/put back into less. What you are seeing is not a change to less but a change to your environment. Less and other screen utilities such as emacs and vi have always done this if the capability is available. Previously you were probably using a terminal that did not support an alternate screen buffer. Since now you are you are seeing the screen buffer switching behavior. You can disable this feature of the terminal by using the *titeInhibit X resource. One time command line option test invocation: xterm -xrm *titeInhibit:true Then if that works then you can add that setting to your X environment resources. Typically it is placed in the ~/.Xresources file which is normally loaded by your X session manager upon starup. You can also load this interactively with the following command. echo *titeInhibit:true | xrdb -merge Note that setting *titeInhibit to true is not the same as running 'less -X'. Using 'less -X' stops less from running all terminal initialization. Setting titeInhibit stops the terminal from supporting an alternate screen buffer. Also, a small suggestion. Please read this following about how to submit bug reports and to also send a copy to another addresses. Look for Sending copies of bug reports to other addresses which addresses how to do this such that followups will have the correct bug report address automatically available for people to followup. http://www.debian.org/Bugs/Reporting But personally I am not sure how beneficial it is to CC debian-user on these things.

You must have a crontab entry that says sudo aptitude update.
It seems cron ran once a minute starting at 5:00 AM and
ending at 5:59 AM .apparently doing the same thing over and over.
Sounds like a bad time spec in your crontab.
# field descriptions
# minute (0-59),
# hour (0-23),
# day of the month (1-31),),
# month of year (1-12),
# day of the week (0-6 with 0=Sunday).
Therefore the following would run once a minute. This is only an
example based upon your report.
* * * * * sudo aptitude update
I havn't added or changed anything --
I am sunning Sid
How can you say with a straight face that nothing has changed and yet
also say that you are running Sid?
Anybody have any ideas ?
$ sudo crontab -l
$ find /etc/cron.* -type f -exec grep aptitude.*update {} +

Iceweasel file associations
As much as I really don't like it Iceweasel has some preconceived notions about how to open files based upon their filename extension. Specifically I'm thinking with respect to .c and .patch files, though others may apply. The problem is that Iceweasel wants to open these files with less which never happens successfully. Most often, when I'm trying to view the files in the web browser, it's because I want quick access for copy and paste. When the requester appears asking how I would like to open the file I have tried to manually direct it to /usr/lib/ iceweasel/iceweasel and firefox-bin. Both result in the creation of a new tab on the active window and the reappearance of the requester asking me how I'd like to open the file. How can I change this behavior to Just show me the $#%*'in file as plain text in a browser tab? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?
