GNOME 3: com evitar-lo?

2011-11-06 Thread Ernest Adrogué
Hola!

Fins ara utilitzava Gnome i més o menys estava satisfet, faig servir
el mode focus-follows-mouse, múltiples escriptoris, etc. Ara amb el
Gnome 3 sembla que han decidit fer una sèrie de canvis ridículs, com
ara eliminar la barra de tasques (de manera que no veus les finestres
minimitzades) i altres coses que no tenen cap mena de sentit.

Moltes distribucions ja l'han començat a adoptar, entre elles Ubuntu.
A Debian suposo que entrarà a Testing aviat. Personalment, no penso
utilitzar el Gnome 3 perquè tinc molt clar que no m'agrada i crec que
s'han begut l'enteniment. La qüestió és com evitar-lo?

Posar els paquets de Gnome en hold potser una idea, però no sé si
pot crear complicacions. En fi, m'imagino que no sóc l'únic amb aquest
problema i m'agradaria saber els altres què penseu fer?

Salut,
Ernest

Hola,
comparteixo al 100% l'opinió de l'Ernest, de fet en Linus Torvalds també
sembla estar-hi d'acord. En el meu cas tot apunta que acabaré passant a
XFCE.

Penso que serà complicat, perquè tard o d'hora (més aviat d'hora que tard) 
l'antic Gnome es deixarà de mantenir i fins i tot d'estar disponible als 
repositoris. No podràs ni actualitzar la distribució.

Sobre què pensem fer no et puc ajudar gaire, perquè no sóc usuari de gnome...

Com apunta el Xavi, tens l'alternativa de l'XFCE. Jo fa més de dos anys 
que em vaig passar a la Lubuntu (LXDE), que per fi és sabor oficial, i 
també he tastat E17 (en fase betíssima, no m'atreveixo a recomanar-lo, 
tot i que m'agrada molt). Els dos primers tenen un aspecte força 
«clàssic», i són lleugers.


Si no t'agraden els canvis de Gnome3, potser tampoc no t'entusiasmarà 
KDE4: el trobo molt més «diferent» encara, tirant a barroc; però, bé, és 
qüestió d'anar tastant.


Bona sort.

Quelles options passes tu au mount ? Ton sda2 est gros ? Tu pourrais le
copier avec dd|ddrescue, pour en faire une image, avant de faire le
fsck ? Car il n'est pas nécessaire, ni recommandé d'ailleurs, de faire
le fsck sur une partition montée.

As tu utilisé testdisk, ou quelque chose d'équivalent, pour vérifier la

Bonjour (miam, scrunch, glup),

Comment le noyau est-il compilé ? Il y a plusieurs façons de compiler un
noyau pour Debian, avec kernel-package qui requiert un peu de
configuration manuelle, avec la cible make deb-pkg qui est inclue dans
les sources du noyau (même celles du noyau vanilla de kernel.org), à
l'ancienne avec make - make modules_install - make install qui
nécessite de prendre soins du chargeur d'amorçage et de l'initramfs soit
même.
Avez-vous suivi un tutoriel particulier ? (url ?)

Il faudrait aussi savoir comment la config a été faite (à partir d'une
config existante, en partant de zéro ?), quels sont les messages
d'erreurs précis renvoyés lors du démarrage.

Bref, quelques infos supplémentaires aiderait beaucoup à diagnostiquer
le problème.

(Je redirige vers la liste un message reçu en direct)

Si le fichier .config (avec make oldconfig) est celui d'un 3.* Debian
on peut imaginer que les options concernant les modules nécessaires au
montage de la racine / sont bonnes.
Il y a bien un initrd correspondant au noyau compilé, ce n'est pas
l'ancien qui est chargé ?

Le message ALERT! /dev/disk/by-uid/xx does not exit
fait penser à une simple erreur d'adressage de la partition racine. Si
le noyau Debian démarre sans problème on peut imaginer que le fstab est
correctement renseigné, je ne vois pas pourquoi mkinitramfs irait
chercher un UUID farfelu juste pour le noyau compilé.

Depuis le shell busybox il est possible de monter la partition racine
sur /, et de poursuivre le démarrage avec un exec /sbin/init. Ça
permettra de voir si une fois le problème d'adressage de la partition
racine réglé le démarrage se poursuit normalement.

Il y a une foule de tutoriels pour compiler son noyau en Anglais, mon
préféré pour Debian est sans doute [1] .
En Français je connais [2] pour kernel-package, [3] pour la méthode
make deb-pkg, et [4] pour la méthode à l'ancienne.

Mimetypes

2011-11-06 Thread Nicolas FRANCOIS
Salut.

Je voudrais que Gedit colorise automatiquement les fichiers .gvr que
j'édite (.gvr, pour GvRng, un outil d'initiation à l'algorithmique et
la programmation que j'utilise avec mes élèves).

L'application fournit des fichiers de langage (plusieurs, en fait, cela
dépend de la langue des locales) qui sont dans
~/.gnome2/gtksourceview-1.0/language-specs/, mais pas de fichier
.xml mime-type.

J'en ai créé un qui ressemble à ça :

?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8?
mime-info
xmlns=http://www.freedesktop.org/standards/shared-mime-info;
mime-type type=text/x-gvr_eng sub-class-of type=text/plain/
commentGvRng Source Code/comment
glob pattern=*.gvr/
/mime-type
/mime-info

puis j'ai mis à jour la base de données avec 
update-mime-database /usr/share/mime/

mais ça ne change rien, il me semble.

Qu'ai-je fait de traviole ?

D'avance merci.

Nettoyage du spam: anciennes archives de debian-user-french

2011-11-06 Thread Christian PERRIER
Bonjour à tou(te)s,

Dans le processus de nettoyage de spam, je vois que certain(e)s
d'entre vous relisent ponctuellement les anciennes archives de nos
listes de diffusion.

Par contre, il est relativement inutile de relire les archives pour
les mois où 5 ou plus personnes ont déjà fait la relecture. En effet,
les spams alors signalés ont en principe été traités et vous n'allez
rien trouver ou presque.

Ainsi, debian-l10n-french et debian-devel-french n'ont plus besoin de
relectures (à part bien sûr une fois chaque mois pour le nouveau mois)

A contrario, les anciennes archives de debian-user-french ont toujours
besoin d'être traitées : selon les cas, par une, deux, trois, voire
quatre personnes, encore.

debian-user-french est une liste au traffic élevé (et il était encore
plus élevé dans le passé), donc c'est un très gros
travail. Personnellement, je traite un mois ou deux d'archives, chaque
semaine.

Cependant, si plusieurs s'y mettent, on peut avancer assez vite.

Le tableau d'avancement est sur http://wiki.debian.org/I18n/FrenchSpamClean


Merci d'avance pour votre coopération. J'espère bien trouver plein de
signalements de spams à traiter les prochaines dimanches...:-)

Bien, ahora comento.

Intenté instalar una Debian Testing amd64. Instala bien (con entorno
gráfico GNOME + Utilidades estándar del sistema+ kernel 3 de amd64),
pero justo en el momento en el que aparece el Waiting for dev to be
fully populated aparecen tres líneas de error pero híper-rápidas
(imposible de leer...) y de repente, la pantalla se convierte como en
un enorme escupitajo de color gris. El sistema sigue cargando, pero yo
no veo absolutamente nada, impidiendo realizar cualquier tipo de
acción.

Probé ahora arrancando debian con el modo a prueba de fallos... y
tampoco, exactamente el mismo percal, el escupitajo gris.

Apunte importante: intenté probar lo de parar el arrancar con Ctrl+S y
demás que vi en un correo antiguo de la lista para detener el booteo
[1] pero... decir que no funciona, no.

¿Qué hago? Bueno, pues voy a daros alguna pista más.

Instalé (y de hecho está) instalado Ubuntu 11.10 32-bit con Unity en
2D. ¿Por qué no en 3D? Porque se congela si le someto a mucha carga.
Hace un parpadeo negro y.. ¡tachán, congelada imagen! Probé a instalar
el controlador fglrx de la tarjeta gráfica en Ubuntu, pero como el que
escucha llover para el sistema de Canonical, nada. Aunque instalarlo
provocó que Unity 2D sí funcionara sin inconvientes.

Instalé Linux Mint Katya 64-bit antes. Desde allí, pude comprobar que
el error era de la Radeon. En los momentos de bloqueo de pantalla
(como le sucedía a Ubuntu) aparecía este triste mensaje (OJO: No es
mío. Pero como eliminé Linux Mint, para que os hagáis una leve idea.
Aparecía como 500 veces repetido):

He leído el resto del correo pero me parece que por lo que explicas te 
podría estar mordiendo este bug de Xorg:

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=40103

En cuanto al registro (para que puedas ver el error exacto) podrías 
tenerlo en /var/log/Xorg.0.log o en el /var/log/dmesg, y si no 
aparece ahí, puedes pasar al kernel esta opción:

boot_delay=1000

En GRUB, te pones sobre la entrada del kernel que quieres iniciar y 
pulsas e (edición), buscas la línea del kernel, le quitas la opción de 
quiet y añades eso (... ro boot_delay=1000) y pulsas F10 -creo que es 
F10- para iniciar la carga del sistema. Te irá mostrando los mensajes 
pero muy lentamente, ten paciencia... coge una cámara de fotos y cuando 
veas el error ¡zasca! le haces una fotico.

 Bien, mi objetivo de esta semana es claro: instalar Debian Testing (o
 mejor stable, no sé...) en el sobremesa. No quiero amargar más a mi
 hermano que menuda tunda le llevo dada intentando solucionarle el
 problema de marras (le he dicho que lo voy a intentar en 2 días, para
 darle un descansito XD) Sabiendo todo esto que os he dado ¿alguna
 clave de lo que pueda hacer? Porque no poder ni trabajar ni arrancar sin
 entorno gráfico porque aparezca en gris la pantalla directamente... me
 da que... va a ser tremendamente complicado :(

Es complicado trabajar sin entorno gráfico pero no imposible, a no ser 
que las consolas (tty) tampoco te dejen trabajar porque la pantalla esté 
igualmente gris. Cuando inicies, salta a la tty1 (Ctrl+Alt+F1) y si la 
consola también está dañada, prueba a desactivar el KMS (añade 
nomodeset en la línea del kernel de GRUB) y si esto tampoco funciona, 
recuerda que tienes ssh, es decir, que puedes trabajar en tu equipo desde 
otro :-)

¿Qué haría yo?

1º Probar con una LiveCD de Squeeze. Si carga bien y no tienes ganas de 
guerras púnicas, instalaría la estable.

2º Si prefieres darle una oportunidad a wheezy y confirmas que se trata 
del bug de Xorg, probaría a instalar el kernel donde supuestamente se ha 
aplicado el parche (v3.1-rc9) o aplicar el parche que indican. Compilar e 
instalar un kernel en Debian es muy sencillo hasta para hacerlo desde 
línea de comandos. Si quieres más información sobre esta opción, me dices.

Plugins de Iceweasel en Wheezy

2011-11-06 Thread Camaleón
Hola,

A ver si alguien me puede confirmar/desmentir este punto. Si me 
confirmáis que os pasa lo mismo, abro un informe fallo. 

Me acabo de dar cuenta de que en Wheezy (Iceweasel 7.0.1, 32 bits) no 
puedo configurar el plugin de flash player como predeterminado aún cuando 
lo tengo instalado en el directorio ~/.mozilla/firefox/[perfil]/plugins/
libflashplayer.so. 

En su lugar, Icewasel otorga preferencia a Gnash:

- Si voy a about:plugins veo que Gnash está por delante de Flash player 
y al cargar cualquier animación o vídeo en Flash efectivamente se carga 
el plugin de Gnash.

- Si desactivo el plugin de Gnash, se carga correctamente el de Adobe.

En lenny lo tengo funcionando sin problemas, vamos, que el directorio de 
plugins del usuario tiene preferencia sobre el global /usr/lib/mozilla/
plugins.

 Saudações.
 Na empresa que trabalho temos aproximadamente 50 servidores sendo 30
 locais e o restante fora, alguns são Linux, alguns FreeBSD e até 2
 rWindows2008
 Vez ou outra surge a necessidade de trocar senha de root desses
 servidores, seja por troca de funcionários ou simplesmente por segurança.
 Hoje faço isso máquina a máquina.
 Quero mudar a forma de acesso fazendo com que cada técnico acesse as
 máquinas utilizando um usuário próprio com poderes de root, mas tenho que
 centralizar isso em um único local para que eu não precise ir a cada
 servidor para alterar a senha. Inclusive a senha de root, se possível.
 Quais as opções sugeridas?


para as maquinas LInux eu pensaria no Openldap, pois vc pode cadastrar os
usuarios com poder de root usando openldap+sudo/ldap.

agora integrar tudo com o windows... humm talvez com kerberos..., mas não
tenho certeza pois nunca pensei no assunto...


 Estou googlando isso, mas quero ouvir sugestões também.

 The most annoying part is the requirement of a new kernel+non-free to get

Squeeze doesn't support Atheros AR8151 NIC on my new system too, I have

UUIDs have nothing to do with the Linux kernel being in sync with the

flashplugin-nonfree or mozilla-flashplugin?

2011-11-06 Thread Hans-J. Ullrich
Hi all, 

is there a difference between flashplugin-nonfree and mozilla-flashplugin?
As far as I saw, both are using flash-files from adobe.com (identical files but 
with diffferent names), although mozilla-flashplugin offers additionally 
configuration options (and packages). But besides this, I could not see any 
other (technical) difference. 

Which one is recommended?

Greetings

Re: Kdesud locking up, JMicron card reader not working, USB 3 Controller stops working after resuming, horizontal tearing on fullscreen

2011-11-06 Thread Camaleón
On Sat, 05 Nov 2011 21:28:48 -0200, M. wrote:

 Hello Camaleón, hello list,
 
 I had to search for this post on the interwebs, as I'm not subscribed.
 But finally a good soul answered me! Thanks, Camaleón! :-)

You're welcome :-)

I know you're not subscribed to this list (me neither) but you can still 
reply to the thread you opened instead posting a new message. I say this 
because this new message is now unthreaded, with bad quoting -I will try 
to manually correct this- and with not further references so I have to 
search your first posting to remember the topic...

 So here it goes:

 1) I use KDE 4.6, the latest version from unstable, and synaptic to
 install packages. synaptic needs sudo permissions, and KDE does that
 using kdesud. The problem is that sometimes the kdesud process hangs,
 and every other call to kdesud gets stalled. I have to go to the
 terminal and kill it by hand - after doing that, synaptic and any 
 other process that calls kdesud works fine. This happens on ALL debian
 unstable installations, both desktop and laptop.
 
Is that happening regardless of the command you run with kdesu or just
when you launch Synaptic?
 
 The only program that I' aware that's running kdesud is synaptic, so I
 dunno.

You can invoke kdesu (or kdesudo) to run whatever program you want 
with root's permissions, not just Synaptic ;-). Kdesu is like su (or 
sudo) but aimed to run GUI based applications.

So, if you run kdesu kwrite it will ask for root's password and then 
will launch kwrite as root (man kdesu if you are interested in this 
application).

Note: if you run kdesudo kwrite it will ask for your user's password 
instead the root's one, as long as sudo has been properly configured in 
your system.

 2) The laptop has a JMicron card reader that only works if the card is
 inserted at boot time.
 
Mmm... what's dmesg output when you connect a card? Is it detected/
mounted?
 
 NO dmesg output. Not detected, not mounted, not anything.

That's weird. You mean that when you insert a card, once the computer has 
booted, there is no system reaction at all? Have you tried with different 
media types (SD, MMC, Memory Stick...)? Are you putting the card in the 
right position (upside down or face up)? I ask this because some embedded 
card readers have the wire contacts at the top and others at the 
bottom :-)

 3) The USB 3 controller on the laptop never worked correctly. It is

 USB controller: NEC Corporation uPD720200 USB 3.0 Host Controller (rev
 03) USB controller: Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset 
 USB2 Enhanced Host Controller (rev 06)

 The two USB 3 ports never worked correctly: they disconnect or never
 connect usb peripherals, giving xhci_hcd errors like


 [ 6135.109318] xhci_hcd :05:00.0: WARN: short transfer on control
 ep [ 6135.112271] xhci_hcd :05:00.0: WARN: short transfer on
 control ep [ 6135.115274] xhci_hcd :05:00.0: WARN: short transfer
 on control ep
 
 (...)
 
I have commented in another thread about a similar problem:
 
http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/.../msg02561.html
 
 I've blacklisted xhci_hcd, and so far the controller hasn't acted up.
 But this gonna take longer to test.

If the USB ports are behaving okay regardless the above error you don't 
need to worry. I have read that these are harmless kernel messages that 
should go away in the next kernel releases.

But if you were having problems with your USB 3.0 devices, this is 
something worth to report. Blacklisting the USB 3.0 module is a by-pass 
more than a real solution.
 
 4) This happens with all video applications on KDE, VLC, mplayer, etc.
 When playing in fullscreen, both machines (with Nvidia graphics cards
 and the driver from Nvidia), with compositing or not, with opengl
 backend or not, vsync enabled or not, any video shows horizontal
 tearing.
 
For this one I would start debugging a driver issue by loading nouveau
instead nvidia. If both drivers experience the same it can be
something pointing to Xorg :-?
 
 The last time I tried to install nouveau, it tried to remove all nvidia
 packages, and after that, it didn't work - black screen, no output, no
 X, no console. I'll try again, but I reported this to the kde bug
 tracking, and they're also trying to figure it out. So far, no luck.

Use a Debian LiveCD, it will load Nouveau drivers and you can test if 
the same happens from here without needing to mess your current running 
system by switching between the two VGA drivers.
 
 Please CC me as I'm not subscribed to the list.
 
 Sorry, I can't :-(
 
 I had to search this on a weird forum, but at least I found it. Why you
 can't CC me?

Because my newsreader does not provide such option :-(

Ah, it's from D-M.

 As far as I saw, both are using flash-files from adobe.com (identical
 files but with diffferent names), although mozilla-flashplugin offers
 additionally configuration options (and packages). But besides this, I
 could not see any other (technical) difference.
 
 Which one is recommended?

They both should provide the same but I still prefer to go to Adobe site 
an get the file from there.

Re: Kdesud locking up, JMicron card reader not working, USB 3 Controller stops working after resuming, horizontal tearing on fullscreen

2011-11-06 Thread Hans-J. Ullrich

  2) The laptop has a JMicron card reader that only works if the card is
  inserted at boot time.
 
 Mmm... what's dmesg output when you connect a card? Is it detected/
 mounted?
 
  NO dmesg output. Not detected, not mounted, not anything.
 
 That's weird. You mean that when you insert a card, once the computer has
 booted, there is no system reaction at all? Have you tried with different
 media types (SD, MMC, Memory Stick...)? Are you putting the card in the
 right position (upside down or face up)? I ask this because some embedded
 card readers have the wire contacts at the top and others at the
 bottom :-)
 

I suppose, your jMicron Cardreader needs a kernel module. Check (without card) 
if it is loaded. If not, reboot with an inserted card, and check the 
difference. Loaded kernelmoduels are shown with the command lsmod.

If in second case, the module ios loaded, and in first case not, try the 
following two solutiuons:

1. add the module in /etc/modules, reboot and try again.

if it does not help, then 

2. build an own kernel and add the required module into the kernel (not as a 
modul, build it directly into it), reboot, start the new kernel and try again.

3. Check your kernel version, I suggest to use 3.0

 
  4) This happens with all video applications on KDE, VLC, mplayer, etc.
  When playing in fullscreen, both machines (with Nvidia graphics cards
  and the driver from Nvidia), with compositing or not, with opengl
  backend or not, vsync enabled or not, any video shows horizontal
  tearing.
 
 For this one I would start debugging a driver issue by loading nouveau
 instead nvidia. If both drivers experience the same it can be
 something pointing to Xorg :-?
 
  The last time I tried to install nouveau, it tried to remove all nvidia
  packages, and after that, it didn't work - black screen, no output, no
  X, no console. I'll try again, but I reported this to the kde bug
  tracking, and they're also trying to figure it out. So far, no luck.
 
 Use a Debian LiveCD, it will load Nouveau drivers and you can test if
 the same happens from here without needing to mess your current running
 system by switching between the two VGA drivers.

I suggest, not to use latest xserver-xorg for Nvidia-cards, there is a bug in 
the latest version, but it appears only at special graphic chips (GF8600 for 
example), try to use version 1.10.XXX.

Good luck!

Hans

Debian's Windows installer needs to fetch the content from network or 
suitable media (that you seem not having). If you go for the network 
path, you need to load the firmware (are you sure you need the firmware 
at all?) from a suitable place¹ (that you seem neither having) so unless 
you put the firmware under a spare FAT32 partition of your disk (which it 
can work or fail) I don't see how can you get the system installed.

Anyway, the installer only allows a WEP based encryption schema (not WPA) 
so you will also have to check this.

 Also is there a way to do a full install from xp parittion?

With your current situation (no CD nor USB nor ethernet card) I'd say 
this is something hard to get.

maybe you can run a virtual machine in windows, and make your
partitions there? Then you will have the option to install debian via
mount / debootstrap / chroot to install wifi driver.

1. create a virtual machine and add a virtual drive AND the physical
partition to it
2. install debian on the virtual drive
3. mount the real partition in e.g. /mnt/debian
4. install the OS using debootstrap (I have no doubt you can easily
find comprehensive guides on installing this way, be aware of the
requirements for doing this)
5. chroot to the installed system and cunstomize there, including the
bootloader (apt-get install grub  grub-update)
6. reboot and test it

NOTE that this is a purely experimental and untested situation, and if
you have no backup plan against a possible failure, I *strongly*
recommend to look for another method. I guess a good documenting period
before starting anything is more than required.
I ALSO PRESUME you have full wifi access on the win system, and the
necessary means of doing a proper virtual machine suitable for the
whole setup, including a way to ensure internet access from the virtual
system.
THE RISK you are exposing this way is rendering you whole system
unusable unless you have the option to boot from a rescue disk or
similar.

Please don't hit me if it hurts you. It's up to you to dig after
further details. This is just a quick overview of the whole thing.

Good! :-)

The wrapper file (nspluginwrapper), as I said, it should be not needed 
anymore because most of the plugins (java, adobe flash and/or PDF...) are 
nowadays being developed for each architecture separately (mostly i386 
and amd64) so there is no need to make tricks to run them. It could be 
still useful for other architectures, though.

Your other problem was having the Gnash plugin set as the default instead 
Adobe flash player. It is still unclear why Gnash refused to load the 
videos, but this can be an aside problem.

Re: Debian install , need to add wireless firmware

2011-11-06 Thread Mark Grieveson
Non-free firmware for wireless can be found here:
http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/unofficial/non-free/firmware/squeeze/current/

Take the firmware.tar.gz or firmware.zip package, and put it on
removable media such as a CD or usb-stick.  Decompress it there, and
you'll find several non-free Debian packages for firmware.  Then,
have this removable media in your destination computer when you install
Debian on it.  The installer will scan your computer for networking
hardware, and then if non-free firmware is required, it will search your
removable drives for the appropriate packages, and then it will set
up your wireless hardware, and establish a connection to allow you to
complete the install.

Borrowing or buying a USB stick would make installing Debian so much
easier but, if you want an interesting and life-enhancing experience,
here we go:

1. Get the goodbye-microsoft installer going. Do the detection and
   configuration of the network part of the menu. It won't work of
   course, but you will make notes of any messages. Pressing Alt-F4
   will also give you much more information.

2. Partition and install the base system. After that there is little
   you can do because there is no net access. Install GRUB to the mbr
   and finish the installation.

3. You can now boot Debian - we hope! Still no net access but you have
   a working system which can do many things. One operation you want to
   carry out is to mount the device which has Windows on it. Like so:

mount /dev/sdaX /mnt

   You want to do this because you are going to download quite a few
   .deb files in Windows, transfer them to the Debian installation
   using Debian and install them with dpkg. Have you bought that USB
   stick yet?

4. I'm assuming the base system has enough to allow mounting of a
   Windows file system. If not you'll need to get files for that first.
   You'll want firmware for your wireless card and wpasupplicant to
   connect to a network. Oh, you'll also want all the dependencies for
   whatever you install, but there is a way of finding out what they
   are.

All very challenging, but doable and a great learning experience!

Sorry, when I responded, I overlooked that you don't have removable
media.  In that case, perhaps putting the non-free firmware packages
unto your Win-XP partition would do the trick.  So, as I mentioned, go
to:

http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/unofficial/non-free/firmware/squeeze/current/

From here, get the compressed non-free firmware packages, decompress
it on your XP partition (which will result in several non-free
firmware Debian packages there) and then run the installer.  Hopefully
the installer will search your XP partition, find the Debian packages
there, install them, and set up wireless for the rest of the
installation.

The standard command is:

The blkid command needs root since by default it (annoyingly) caches
information in /etc/blkid.tab.  (Cache info should go into /var/cache.)

You can use ls (as a normal user) to poke around in the /dev/disk/

  I've tried running xboing on wheezy. Still no sound. So I've purged it

 If you are interested in the package, you could ping xboing developer
 and ask for the status of the package. If there is a new version maybe it
 could be considered again to be kept in Debian repositories :-?
 
 Greetings,
Geezyou guys really took me back.  
I used to play xboing years ago.  I'm now running Mepis (a Debian Squeeze 
spinoff).  I just installed xboing and xboing has full sound, just like the 
good old days. :-)  version is 2.4-31  if that helps.

Re: Debian install , need to add wireless firmware

  partition but have no idea how to get it to the installer.  Any ideas would

 Borrowing or buying a USB stick would make installing Debian so much
 easier but, if you want an interesting and life-enhancing experience,
 here we go:
 
 1. Get the goodbye-microsoft installer going. Do the detection and
configuration of the network part of the menu. It won't work of
course, but you will make notes of any messages. Pressing Alt-F4
will also give you much more information.
 
 2. Partition and install the base system. After that there is little
you can do because there is no net access. Install GRUB to the mbr
and finish the installation.
 
 3. You can now boot Debian - we hope! Still no net access but you have
a working system which can do many things. One operation you want to
carry out is to mount the device which has Windows on it. Like so:
 
   mount /dev/sdaX /mnt
 
You want to do this because you are going to download quite a few
.deb files in Windows, transfer them to the Debian installation
using Debian and install them with dpkg. Have you bought that USB
stick yet?

Once xp is mounted onto debian, I guess one could just copy the 
required firmware files from the xp partition into /lib/firmware (or
wherever they need to be) and then reboot/reload the network driver
to get it going.  (The network setting might have to be set up at 
this point but the defaults could be good enough.)  This should avoid 
downloading lots of .deb files to xp and moving them over.

 4. I'm assuming the base system has enough to allow mounting of a
Windows file system. If not you'll need to get files for that first.
You'll want firmware for your wireless card and wpasupplicant to
connect to a network. Oh, you'll also want all the dependencies for
whatever you install, but there is a way of finding out what they
are.
 
 All very challenging, but doable and a great learning experience!

Disk performance deteriated to unbearable levels

2011-11-06 Thread David Purton
Hi everyone,

I have an ASUS 1005PE and have been running sid on it for the last
couple of years with regular updates.

Fairly recently - maybe in the last few months - but it's hard to tell,
the disk performance has dropped through the floor.

Everything takes forever to load (including booting), but then runs ok
once loaded.

Even loading vim for the first times takes 3 seconds. And you might as
well go catch a movie while libroffice loads...

I've been running sid for many years on many machines and never had this
sort of trouble before.

I do not think it is the disk, since I still have windows 7 lying around
on a spare partition and that seems to boot at its normal speed

My only guess is that it is filesystem related, but I am not sure how to
confirm this, nor why things would have got to the present situation.

Currently, the root/system parition is 20GB, with 50% used. /home has
only 44% used.

Both are ext3

Any suggestions?

Is it worth trying to convert to ext4?

I do not want to reinstall if at all possible.

cheers,

David

First, make at least two complete back up sets and store one off-site.


It could be a hardware problem.


Your hard drive manufacturer should have a diagnostic utility available 
in the form of a bootable ISO image.  I'd download, burn, and boot that. 
 If the diagnostic finds a problem, proceed accordingly.  Understand 
that other issues may make a good disk look bad (power supply, power 
cables, motherboard, controller card, data cable, etc.).  If the utility 
finds no problems, then I'd wipe the disk using the utility, do a fresh 
install, and then restore/ reconnect data.



As an aside, I use one disk for swap and the root file system, and a 
second large disk for data.  Then whenever I do a fresh install, most 
restoring data is a simple matter of hooking up the data drive.



HTH,

David

How to ifdown ... on squeeze?

2011-11-06 Thread Dan B.

On a new installation of squeeze, ifdown no longer works as it used
to (on my old Debian system).

When ifconfig lists an interface eth0, neither ifdown eth0 nor
ifdown eth takes the interface down.  The attempts yield:
  ifdown: interface eth0 not configured and
  ifdown: interface eth not configured.

How does one take an interface down on squeeze?

(My old system's /etc/network/interfaces had:
  ...
  auto eth0
  iface eth0 inet dhcp
On my squeeze system, it's:
  ...
  allow-hotplug eth0
(with a commented-out line:
  #NetworkManager#iface eth0 inet dhcp
)
)



Also:  The reason I was trying to take it down and back up was to
trigger a fresh DHCP query and corresponding host-name configuration.
What's the preferred way of doing that?


Thanks,
Daniel

When NM controls your connections, NICs aren't defined in
/etc/network/interfaces, by default; you can change that behavior by
changing the managed variable of the ifupdown section of
/etc/NetworkManager/networkmanager.conf.

You can also use nmcli to take down and bring up your NIC.

This is because by default with a GNOME desktop installed Debian has
switched away from ifupdown and over to NetworkManager because GNOME
by default specifies NetworkManager.  If you don't install GNOME then
you won't get NetworkManager and the behavior will be traditional
Debian ifupdown.  There is a lot of discussion about this in the
mailing list archives.  It has been controversial.

  How does one take an interface down on squeeze?

The expected tool on a GNOME system would be by using the
NetworkManager GUI with the mouse or as Tom writes, 'nmcli' from the
command line.  Something like this:

  # nmcli conn down id 'Auto eth0'
  # nmcli conn up id 'Auto eth0'

  (with a commented-out line:
   #NetworkManager#iface eth0 inet dhcp

For the background of that comment see the bug report here:

My recommendation is to edit that commented out line and remove it
from NetworkManager's control and return it to ifupdown's control.
See the mailing list archives for lots of discussion of this issue.

See this next reference for the details of that particular line.

 Apt-get update  apt-get upgrade gedraaid, en daarna de laptop weer
 even uit- en aangezet, en nu zien de letters hier er weer mager uit, als
 eerst. Hm?
 
 Ik vermoed dat een en ander met elkaar te maken heeft. Maar het kan
 toeval zijn.
 
 Ik heb *geen* idee waar ik moet beginnen met zoeken? Ik zie in
 /var/log/aptitude zo op het oog niet wat er op font-gebied (of locales)
 is vernieuwd.

Ik had heb dit laatst onder stable aan de praat gebracht met:

chinees (en Japans):
apt-get install ttf-arphic-bkai00mp ttf-arphic-bsmi00lp
ttf-arphic-gbsn00lp ttf-arphic-gkai00mp ttf-arphic-ukai ttf-arphic-uming

koreaans:
apt-get install ttf-unfonts-core

Of dit echter de beste manier is durf ik niet te zeggen. Sjoerd Hiemstra
schreef dat hij deze fonts niet geïnstalleerd had, maar dat hij toch
uitstekend Chinees, Japans en Koreaans kon weergeven.

Groet,
Paul.
