Yo no te recomendaría ningún netbook. Creo que iría a por un portátil 
ligero con pantalla de 13 o similar que a la larga tienen más ventajas.

¿Marcas? Toshiba, HP, Lenovo... para netbooks te dará más o menos lo

Gracias por la recomendación, pero estaba buscando una netbook
principalmente por el peso, ya que el uso que le voy a dar va a ser para
trasladarla a la facultad, y este año estuve usando la notebook de mi
hermana y la verdad que con los libros y demás se me hace pesado el viaje.

Preferentemente preferiría la notebook pero hoy por hoy con la tecnología
actual no creo que haya mucha diferencia entre ambas, obviando la pantalla
y teclado claro, y el precio!!

 Bueno que se está instalando NOVA Linux(distro cubana) a unas

 ¿Qué problemas?
 
 La máquina tiene windows xp instalado y se instaló también NOVA. El
 proceso de instalación se realiza bien hasta la parte final cuando
 comienza a instalar el GRUB. Luego cuando va por el 50% la pantalla se
 queda colgada. Entonces cuando inicias no levanta porque no instaló el
 cargador de arranque.

Pues no sé qué tipo de instalador usa NOVA pero si es similar al de 
Debian quizá el sistema no se haya instalado por completo. 

A ver, el proceso de instalación no debe de acabar abruptamente con la 
pantalla colgada, yo que tú empezaría a instalar desde cero y si quieres, 
salta el paso de la instalación del cargador de arranque, no instales 
nada, una vez que finalice la instalación correctamente y reinicies, 
inicia con el CD de instalación (o con cualquier LiveCD que tengas), dile 
que quieres iniciar un sistema instalado, arranca y una vez dentro ya 
instalas el cargador de arranque.

Pero la instalación debe finalizar limpiamente.

 De la provincia, tomado de internet, le enviaron unos pasos a ejecutar y
 todo salió bien. No los tengo aquí, les prometo que los postearé para
 que los vean pero si puedo comentarlos con mis palabras pues estuve
 razonándolos  :)
 
 Pasos:
 
 1. Se inicia con un CD live, en este caso se hizo con uno de Ubuntu 9.04

(...)

Eso es más o menos lo que te comento más arriba pero mejor que crear un 
entorno chrooteado (que son los pasos que has puesto), inicia 
directamente desde el sistema instalado e instala GRUB desde ahí.

 A jusgar por mi instuición, lo que se hace en este proceso es instalar
 el GRUB en el sistema averiado a partir del sistema que está en RAM.
 
 Cómo estoy?  8-)

Más o menos... pero es mejor instalar el GRUB que trae NOVA que no otro 
GRUB, por si acaso.

 Seguramente GNOME3 con gnome-shell en su versión 3.2 o la 3.4.

 Como ya han dicho algunos de ustedes, es cuestión de acostumbrarse,
 además de que llegue a estar completa la migración de GNOME 2 a GNOME 3
 y en una versión que permita más personalizaciones, como la 3.2 o
 superiores. No me parece justo comparar el GNOME 3 que hay a día de hoy
 en «testing» con el que está en Arch o Fedora 16. En estas últimas
 distribuciones las versiones son más recientes que las de Debian y se
 puede, por ejemplo, añadir extensiones.

Creo que el GNOME de Sid está más actualizado.

MegaRAID SAS 9240-4i en Debian Squeeze

2011-12-21 Thread Mauro Sánchez

Buenos días.
Tengo un servidor IBM x3550 M3, que tiene una placa RAID LSI 9240-4i.
Busqué en la página del fabricante y los drivers vienen para Debian
Lenny, en los cuales, durante los pasos de la instalación, además de
copiar el modulo del kernel (megaraid_sas.ko) hay que copiarse también
una initrd.img para el kernel 2.6.26, que ya la proporcionan ellos.
Pero el kernel de la instalación de Squeeze es 2.6.32.
Mi pregunta es, ¿puedo llegar a utlizar ese módulo y generar mi propia
initrd.img para usarla en la instalación de Squeeze? Si es posible,
¿cómo sería la forma de hacerlo?
Muchas gracias.
Saludos.
Mauro Sánchez.

Re: Problemas con Paquetes (solucionado)

2011-12-21 Thread Paradix ;)


Hola lista

Hace unos días comentaba por acá un suceso que había tenido trabajando 
con una maquina virtual en casa. Dicha maquina virtual tiene Debian 
Squeeze, está montada sobre vmware para win.


El tema fue que instalando unos paquetes no advertí que la particion de 
win donde esta el disco de la virtual se estaba quedando sin espacio y 
en un momento dado petó, dejandome sin poder instalar nada debido a 
algunos paquetes que se quedaron en camino... el mensaje que me devolvía 
apt-get cada vez que intentaba correrlo era este:

probe con dpk --configure -a, dpkg --configure -a -pending, apt-get 
install -f, apt-get clean, apt-get autoclean y nada, entraba a 
/var/cache/apt/archives y eliminaba todo al igual que en 
/var/cache/apt/archives/partial, no tenia solución  ayer haciendo 
experimentos locos tratando de averiguar donde el manejador de paquetes 
dejaba toda la info de la instalación pendiente revise el codigo de 
dpkg-reconfigure y cai en cuenta que en /var/lib/dpkg/status el pone la 
informacion de los paquetes que instala y los que están pendiente por 
instalar, edite con nano y busque toda referencia acerca de los paquetes 
gnome-noble-icon-theme y gnome-wine-icon-theme las cuales elimine de 
status, luego de salvar y salir busque con find todo lo que oliera a 
ambos nombres y les di rm ;) ... luego tipee apt-get install -f y todo 
ok ya puedo instalar nuevamente sin lio


no creo que sea una solución ortodoxa ... pero al menos hasta ahora me 
salvo de un problema (ya estaba pensando en dar solución con el metodo 
windows, es decir, reinstalar todo) ... pienso que quizá esto sirva de 
solución a alguno ... alguna critica es aceptada

Al contrario... HP es de las pocas empresas que soporta Linux en sus 
drivers de impresoras y equipos multifunción (hay algunas excepciones).

En concreto, tu modelo está soportado desde la versión 3.10.6¹ de hplip, y 
si tienes squeeze, la tienes disponible en los repos de Debian.

La forma más sencilla de configurar los dispositivos multifunción es a 
través de esta utilidad (hplip) ya que te configurará la impresora, el 
escáner y el fax (en caso de tenerlo).

La interfaz web de CUPS (http://localhost:631) suele ser conveniente para 
la gestión de equipos con mono-función, es decir, impresoras.

value is decreased and the sector is not remapped. Read errors on a 
sector will not remap the sector (since it might be readable later);

Al contrario... HP es de las pocas empresas que soporta Linux en sus
drivers de impresoras y equipos multifunción (hay algunas excepciones).

En concreto, tu modelo está soportado desde la versión 3.10.6¹ de hplip, y
si tienes squeeze, la tienes disponible en los repos de Debian.

La forma más sencilla de configurar los dispositivos multifunción es a
través de esta utilidad (hplip) ya que te configurará la impresora, el
escáner y el fax (en caso de tenerlo).

La interfaz web de CUPS (http://localhost:631) suele ser conveniente para
la gestión de equipos con mono-función, es decir, impresoras.

Saludos,


Hola.

Totalmente de acuerdo. Puedes hacerlo por el http://localhost:631 o por 
el siempre confiable hp-setup desde la linea de comandos como root


claro esta previo un  apt-get install hplip

Por otro lado en esta línea:

Al indicarla con el puntero del ratón, me aparece abajo:

En la línea siguiente no cambia nada.


deb file:///mnt/repo-red/debian squeeze main

pero me vuelve a dar el mismo error

¿Donde me puedo estar equivocando? he mirado man sources.list cientos 
de veces y no doy con el error, los repos no tienen problemas, si los 
pongo en la pc donde estan los mismos a que los sirva un servidor web 
puedo utilizarlos sin lio ¿que debo hacer?


No tengo idea de lo que pasa, pero es evidente que no está buscando los 
paquetes en la ruta correcta.


Por lo pronto lo que se me ocurre es que utilices un editor no gráfico, 
como nano por ejemplo y reescribe la ruta dentro del sources.list.

Re: Formatar USB em NTFS

2011-12-21 Thread Bruno Schneider


 Se o seu único problema é a perda de espaço após a formatação em extx, tente 
 informar a opção -m 1. Dessa forma, o sistema reservará apenas 1% do espaço 
 em disco para o root (o normal é 5%).


Num pendrive eu colocaria -m 0. Não vejo motivo para deixar espaço
de reserva nesse caso.

Outra opção é dividir o arquivo em partes para satisfazer as limitações do FAT.

Re: vmware e placa de rede

2011-12-21 Thread Caio Ferreira

Lista

Com a ajuda de algumas pessoas da lista consegui evoluir.

Até agora fiz o seguinte:

- identificar placa de rede
# lspci | grep Ethernet
pcnet32

- adicionar o cd-rom no apt
# apt-cdrom add

- kernel
# make menuconfig
Network device support Ethernet AMD PCnet32 PCI support

- compilar o kernel
# make dep
# make bzImage
# make modules
# make modules_install

- ativar módulo
# modprobe pcnet32
PCI: Found IRQ 9 for device 00:11.0
eth0: registred as PCnet/PCI II
pcnet32: 1 cards_found

Até ai nenhum problema, o módulo foi carregado com sucesso. O problema
esta ocorrendo agora quanto tento ativar a placa de rede. Executo o
comando ifup eth0 e aparece uma mensagem de erro indicando que houve
falha no carregamento da placa de rede.

- ativar placa de rede
# ifup eth0
Failed to bring up eth0

Será que é necessário carregar algum outro módulo antes do pcnet32?

Desde já agradeço pela ajuda.

2011/12/11 Caio Ferreira abreuf...@gmail.com:
Lista

Estou tendo problema com uma vmware linux a onde a placa de rede não
esta sendo reconhecida.

A um bom tempo atras montei um servidor LAMP, kernel versão 2.4.xx,
para um cliente. Infelizmente o disco rígido deste servidor começou a
apresentar problema de badblock. Como a versão dos softwares deste
servidor são muito antigas, kernel versão 2.4.x, mysql versão 4.x e
php versão 4.x, não me arrisco a querer fazer a atualização dos
softwares pois vai dar problema. Para isso resolvi virtualizar o
servidor e deixar os softwares com as versões antigas. Para fazer essa
virtualização fiz o seguinte.

1 - conectei um segundo disco rígido no servidor;
2 - dei o boot no servidor através do cd do Ubuntu Rescue Remix;
3 - executei o comando ddrescue e criei um arquivo com a imagem do
disco rígido com defeito, ddrescue /dev/hda /mnt/img/server.IMG;
4 - desconectei o disco rígido do servidor com problema e conectei no
servidor novo;
5 - criei uma máquina virtual do zero;
6 - executei o comando ddrescue no sentido inverso, da imagem para o
disco rígido virtual, ddrescue /mnt/img/server.IMG /dev/sda;

Todo o processo ocorreu com sucesso exceto a placa de rede. O servidor
esta subindo normalmente mas infelizmente a placa de rede não esta
sendo reconhecida/carregada. Eu estou imaginando que o linux virtual
não esteja reconhecendo a placa de rede ou o módulo referente a essa
placa de rede virtual não esta sendo reconhecida. Alguém por acaso
teria alguma ideia do que pode esta ocorrendo?

Desde já obrigado pela ajuda !!

Acesso USB através do servidor Apache

Olá pessoal,

Tenho um servidor web (Apache) e fiz um script PHP para acessar a porta USB
(do próprio servidor). A intenção é controlar um Arduino pela web, mas
estou
com problema nas permissões de leitura/escrita na USB.

Já adicionei meu usuário ao grupo 'dialout' para ter acesso a USB, mas ao
executar o script nada ocorre, a não ser que eu deixe acesso total ao
dispositivo /dev/ttyACM0, o que não posso deixar, por questões de segurança.

Alguem sabe o que devo fazer?

Re: Impedir que usuarios desliguem computador

2011-12-21 Thread hamacker

Coloca os referidos comandos através do sudoers, provavelmente esses
botoes no gnome/kde disaparam o shutdown, reboot, etc... então
bastaria colocar estes comandos atrás do sudoers daí só desligaria
digitando sua própria senha e ainda por cima usando o comando 'sudo'

Agora, se estamos falando do ser mítico chamado usuario é bom se
preparar para desligamentos abruptos inesperados. Vão meter o dedão no

 Using instructions on http://www.v13.gr/blog/?p=11, I have available a
 debootstraped amd64 squeeze using a dselect-upgrade based on my existing
 installation (which is Sid). Since his instructions are older than
 multiarch and based on lenny, I would like to know how to proceed. The
 gyst is:
 
 1. mv /usr out of way and replace with that from the amd64. OK, better, do
 not copy over after saving a copy?
 2. Back up /etc just in case.
 
  I am not sure if these are correct now:
 3. mv any /lib32, lib64 out of the way (I have no emul) He mv to an /i386
 folder
 4 ln -s /lib /lib64
 5. ln -s /emul/ia32-linux/lib /lib32
 
 Or these:
 mv  /myamd64/emul /
 
 // probably corret:
 mv /sbin /i386
 mv /myamd64/sbin /
 mv /bin /i386
 /i386/bin/mv /myamd64/bin / (note his trick here--would cp -a be better for
 all this stuff?)
 
 This is worst part:
 mv /lib /i386
 export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/i386/lib
 /i386/lib/ld-2.7.so /i386/bin/mv /myamd64/lib /
 Note this trick as well. Versions may be different.

Actually, much better to do all this from the rescue-CD and avoid the issues! 
Very easy from there. Next time.

I did not mv my /lib but simply copied over it. Want my modules.

However, with a Sid system (I upgraded that from the chroot), would it not be 
sufficient and more desirable to simply copy the /lib/gnu-amd64... folder and 
the ld-linux?

Since I copied over from a testing system upgraded to Sid, I have a load of 
so's and so.# files in /lib once again. Should I ger rid of all of these 
except for the ld-linux? A repeat question from a while back: What belongs in 
/lib?

All of this can be easily tried out from the rescue-CD. If its chroot works, 
all is well. Can proceed to /usr: I only swiched bin,sbin,lib, share (needed), 
those i586* (needed?) and the lib32 instead of lib64.

 After this, one has options what to do with /var
 I would probalby replace the /var/cache and /var/lib with those in myamd64
 
 He then mv the System*, iniitrd* vmlinuz* config* to the i386 save
 directory Reinstall the 64 bit kernels
 lilo.conf just to use those, etc., reboot and LOL :-)
I was not able to reinstall the kernels. Problem was that dpkg still wanted 
i386 so wanted to reinstall everything. No go.

Since I kept my /lib/modules, I was able to reboot this system. Too many 
things did not work, though I actually, after copying xkbd and xfont stuff, 
got X going. But attempting KDE was too disruptive.

With the rescue CD, I put everything back and rebooted. Only the errant KDE 
session tried was disrupted but this is always the case, nothing to do with 
why. Got it mostly fixed but this tends to heal itself eventually. 
I.e.,somethings are working again that had not been for a while and others are 
not (but forgivable).

The main problem seems to be after doing all this, that dpkg still prints 
architecture i386. So I cannot reinstall and kernel or update-initramfs 
instead to reflect the new system map. Failing this, I will stay with the old 
system.

 Did you see your isos being added to the grub.cfg?

Yup, thats why i was able to select them at boot time



 
  
  /home is in a lvm volume (in case it matters)
 
 At what point during the booting of the isos from beneath /home, in an
 lvm, is the lvm accessible? ;-)

Im not sure i understand you. The lvm is not usually handled by the live
isos in my experience. Is that your question?

The package grml-rescueboot manages to bootup images from lvm
partitions :S

 I haven't used grub-imageboot for a while (since it was a Grml package)
 but... when I did, I had the iso images beneath /boot on an USBKey using
 FAT32. I had problems with other filesystems[*1]
 
 Posting grub.cfg might be instructive.

I pasted it at the end of mail [1]

  grub-imageboot doesn't use a
 loopback system to extract the kernel and initrd, which makes it
 difficult to figure out what's going on (it maps iso directly into memory).
 
 Note that memdisk ISO emulation is tricky[*2] - some images will use it,
 others require different versions (or memtest), or simply won't work.

i think grml-rescueboot uses the loopback thing and thats why its able
to at least try to boot the ubuntu iso :)
Anyway, I can do it with a pen, if i were able to make this work, it
would be super convenient :)

  
 I'd suggest you use a simple USBkey setup to try and isolate your problem.

how exactly? I mean, When I try to boot from the grub entry, i dont know
what log to look for, or how to use the live-pen to debug this :S

 
 I found grub-imageboot to be more trouble than it's worth for booting
 Linux systems. Great for non-Linux systems though

Non-linux bootable iso's? like what if may I ask?


 
 
 Cheers
thank you, cheers!

bcm4331 firmware installer package

Hi,

I don't know which one (else) can be fit for bcm4331 802.11a/b/g/n (rev 02)

From http://wiki.debian.org/bcm43xx#b43_and_b43legacy

I tried:

1] aptitude install firmware-b43-lpphy-installer

No chroot environment found. Starting normal installation
No supported card found.
Use proper b43 or b43legacy firmware.
Aborting.

2] # aptitude install firmware-b43-installer

No chroot environment found. Starting normal installation
Unsupported device(s) found: PCI id 14e4:4331
Aborting.

both of the listed are not working,

 was because I failed to find the proper firmware installer, right?
 neither firmware-b43-installer nor  firmware-b43-lpphy-installer is fit.

 To be sincere, I'm not sure. The user of that thread is also logging
 the same message although he seems to have loaded the proper firmware

 This is what he reports:

 Besides, consider reporting your findings/problems at linuxwireless
 mailing list :-)

 Thanks, I just subscribed. but at present still don't get a better
 understanding about what's going on.

 Me neither.

 The problem is that your only chance to get your wifi card running is by
 means of the b43 driver from kernel 3.2, at least for now because no
 other broadcom drivers seems to have support for it ;-(

Haha ... thanks

Just minutes ago I sent an email to the  linuxwireless list (not sure
it's the exact list you recommended).

just repeated what we went through in this threads.

I did not make any progress in understanding this issue those days,
haha ... pretty occupied by other things.

Re: RAID 1 - software or hardware.

2011-12-21 Thread yudi v

  You would need
 a second compatible hardware raid controller to use in order to
 extract the data from the drives.  The hardware raid controllers I
 have used have not allowed me to access the data without a compatible
 raid controller.

If it's in RAID 1, I was under the impression that I would be able to
mount that disk on another system and be able to access my data. I
came to this conclusion because in RAID 1 each disk has the full
contents unlike in parity.

So what does the data look like when you mount it on another system?

The .iso file(s) have to be in /boot/images/ . Change the default back 
to boot/images, copy one of your .iso files to /boot/images, do 
update-greb then grub-install and it does load the .iso file.


Just tested here on wheezy.

I think that i've tried virtually every sound menu item available on

It may be something as simple as selecting the correct 'device' in VLC in the

not long ago and this was the solution. VLC tends to select the system

VLC again perhaps or check the menu for the output device and select the
correct one.

I don't suppose you meant to say you were trying to watch mp4 films..did you

that a proprietary encoding from Nero?

Just curious.

I don't suppose you meant to say you were trying to watch mp4 films..did you
mean mp4 files? If this was the case, I'm not sure VLC will play mp4..isn't
that a proprietary encoding from Nero?

 Yet none of this will fix his reboot issue, if indeed it's caused by the
 onboard 8042, which I suspect.  I think the kernel parm mentioned by

 properly.
 
 My guess is that Darren's Sandy Bridge motherboard simply doesn't like
 that old KB with the inbuilt 8042, and the way the chip handles A20
 switching.  To prove this theory Darren needs to try a modern KB.  If
 that doesn't fix it, then we dive into the Intel graphics driver, mobo
 BIOS settings, possible bad motherboard, etc.

For diagnostic purposes, it probably is a good idea to try another
keyboard, temporarily at least.  But I have seen an incorrect keyboard
definition cause reboot problems.  Another machine I use has a Dell
SK-8125 USB keyboard.  This keyboard model has 103 keys.  It doesn't
match the default pc105 key mapping.  I had reboot problems with it
too, until I set XKBMODEL to dellsk8125.  It works fine now.

I tried that too and it does not work. Why, because you are booting the

work.


This does work to boot iso's I no longer have floppies so don't know

 What would I be missing? I installed lxde with 'apt-get

 install the universe, just too many notes :-)
 
On Wheezy, I tried running lxappearance from the command line, and it

that Customize Look and Feel would probably call lxappearance.

I am doing an install on an IBM Z9 LPAR of 6.0.3.

The install was going smoothly until I got to Configure direct access storage 
device.  I supplied an address and was ask if I wanted to format it; I said 
yes and when it finished it went back to the previous screen.  It just keeps 
alternating these screens.  How do I move forward?

I don’t know whether it was because of all the tinkering today or

now working properly again. Thanks to all who helped.

 So what you are basically seeking is a way for setting the mouse scroll

 The way to setup scrolling only one raw in OpenOffice.org Calc using

Yes, or so I think.

 If one setup this successfully I don't know how would this appeares in
 other applications than OOo?

Mouse scroll can be set from X server as well as per application basis, 
that is, you can set Xorg to use a value (e.g., scroll 3 lines at a time) 
that will be used system wide affecting all of the programs but you can 
also set a different value for one application which will affect just 
that app. Firefox, for instance, can be configured to use a different 
mouse scrolling value so I guess there can be others... I don't know for 
OpenOffice, though :-?

 in xorg.conf but this setup only the wheel button and not it's speed
 or what that is needed for for setup scrolling in Calc or in other
 applications.

 I'm not sure how to achieve this. There has to be an option for the
 current mouse driver you are using (mouse, evdev...?) but e.g., man
 evdev returns no option available to control this setting.
 
 From the Xorg.0.log I find these lines:
 
 (II) config/udev: Adding input device ImPS/2 Generic Wheel Mouse
 (/dev/input/event4)
 (**) ImPS/2 Generic Wheel Mouse: Applying InputClass evdev pointer catchall
 (II) Using input driver 'evdev' for 'ImPS/2 Generic Wheel Mouse' 
 (II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/input/evdev_drv.so 
   
(...)

There you have it. So the question is now how to instruct that driver 
(evdev) to use a different scrolling value, I see nothing at all a the man 
page nor in the docs :-?

 Searching with Google using keywords 'evdev scroll wheel' gives to me no
 answer for this. Thanks!

Yep, there is not much information on the matter or at least I was unable to 
find a clear way to configure it. 

I would ask this question directly at Xorg's users mailing list:

 I want to try putting the bus speed to a lower rate. Is this posible ?
 for example, can I force a USB2.0 bus to work in USB1.0 mode or
 something like that?

Yes, well, you can use an USB 1.0/1.1 cable with a USB 2.0 hub/device, 
the speed will be automatically reduced to the lowest speed of all the 
involved compotents which in this case will be the cable.

But there has to be a better way to extend the distance by using 
repeaters (hubs) or USB specific designed cables that can achieve longer 
distances.

 How is the mount point set? Dynamically or statically?

 Sorry not sure what you mean by Dynamically or statically?. 

Yes, I'll explain.

By dynamically I mean the mount point is accessed on the fly, by using 
smb:// protocol in Nautilus.

By statically I wanted to say it was a mount point defined at /etc/
fstab, which seems to be the case.

 I have a line in fstab as follows:
 
 //nasbox/dataNAS /mnt/nas cifs 
 rw,user,exec,iocharset=utf8,user=xxx,password=xxx,uid=1000,gid=1000
 
 (not sure if all these options are strictly needed or correct but the
 mount is ok)

Okay, it looks right to me. Should there is any illegal option you would 
get a warning when booting (something like unrecognized option in /etc/fstab 
at line nn).

 Does Ctrl+R (reload) do the trick? If not, how about closing/opening
 Nautilus? Or just by relogin?



 No none of this works. It's not just Nautilus because the ls command in
 the Gnome terminal also fails to see the nas.

- What's the output of mount command after the system restores from 
suspension/hibernation?

- Does manully enforcing the mounting the dataNAS share work after 
suspension/hibernation?

- Are there any errors/warnings entries registered at the logs?

Google has found a similar situation here:

***
Samba mount point becomes inaccessible after hibernation/suspend 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/acpi-support/+bug/24864
***

But it's *very* old (2005), this has been to be addressed and solved by now :-?

 Mice don't do USB2.  They are Low Speed USB1 devices.  To see this, type

 which should show something like:
    |__ Port 1: Dev 2, If 0, Class=HID, Driver=usbhid, 1.5M
 showing that it is running at 1.5 Mbits/sec

Acctually i didn't mention that between the cable and the mouse there

/:  Bus 01.Port 1: Dev 1, Class=root_hub, Driver=ehci_hcd/8p, 480M
|__ Port 2: Dev 9, If 0, Class=hub, Driver=hub/4p, 480M

So the cable speed is 480M.

To be sincere, I don't know how to slowdown the speed of an USB host per

It would be nice indeed, to be able to separate the ports by means of a 
software based solution. That way, by connecting USB 1.0/1.1 devices into 
USB 2.0 host controller it won't slow the whole thing to the minimum 
speed which is what happens right now.

 came to this conclusion because in RAID 1 each disk has the full

Most motherboard raid controllers are what are called BIOS fake raid

different controller in a different system.  The data is all there but
usually simply not accessible by the standard programs because of the
unique format.  Most of the time these are not compatible with other
controllers making data recovery on a different system problematic.

 So what does the data look like when you mount it on another system?

You are in the best situation to know.  Install a test using the

Missing firmware is not yet the problem.

As the ERROR message above says, the PHY contained in the BCM4331 is not 
supported by your version of b43. It takes kernel 3.2-rc3+. You can also get 
that version of the driver by installing the latest version of bleeding-edge 
compat-wireless found at http://linuxwireless.org/download/compat-wireless-2.6/. 
You will need to build that code, unless Debian has such a package.


Once you get the correct version of b43, then the firmware and the firmware 
cutter are available at http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/b43.

On Wheezy, I tried running lxappearance from the command line, and it
fails with errors.  Maybe try that and google the errors.  I *think*
that Customize Look and Feel would probably call lxappearance.



Indeed, it is 650609 and that also provides a solution: use the Squeeze

In addition, is this problem happening after a fresh installation or just

I would also test with a LiveCD (either from Debian or another

 The bcm4331 support in b43 is pretty new so I do not expect distros are
 providing packages for it. Your best bet is to get linux-firmware repo
 from git.kernel.org. Probably the b43 developers can point you to the
 specific firmware file you need to use for that phy.

Arend: I'm not sure how to say it nice... but there is only one
company starting with B having copyrights to the BCM4331 firmware.
Only this company can legally submit BCM4331 firmware to
linux-firmware repo.

Using  is bash specific syntax.  I expect that it was executed
with /bin/sh which is not bash by default.  /bin/sh is dash, a posix
shell, by default and won't have bash extensions.  And even if /bin/sh
happens to be bash then bash will be operating in standards mode and
won't have that syntax then either.

Try this portable shell redirection instead:

Ownership of external usb hard drive

I have an external usb hard drive that I use solely for storing
backups which are done every three hours of my home folder. It is
'owned' by root, but I want to have the user boztu to have ownership
of it so that boztu can write to it from their cron backup program,
but how do I do it please?

At the moment root writes to it at midnight and creates a new dated
folder, because only root has write access to it. Then every three
hours boztu writes to it and backs up the changes in the home folder,
but I want user boztu to do =all= of it including creating the new
dated folder.

Does this make sense?

This type of question probably should have been posted to
debian-s...@lists.debian.org.  But I will attempt to answer it.
I have installed Debian on a z890, but it was not in an LPAR:
it was in a virtual machine under z/VM.  And it's been a while
since I did a from-scratch-install on a mainframe; so I'm a bit
rusty.  Anyway ...

First of all, when you give the installer a device number,
I believe it wants it in the form 0.0., where  is the
device number as it would be known to, say, z/OS.  Secondly,
if a letter (A-F) is included in the device address, make sure
you specify it in lower case (a-f), which is not intuitive to
mainframers.  For example, device address 30A would be specified
as 0.0.030a.  (Not including the period at the end of the sentence,
of course.)  Third, assuming that you are using PuTTY as your
SSH client, make sure that you set the translation to UTF-8,
as the default is ISO-8859-1 (Latin 1).  The Debian installer assumes
UTF-8, and the scroll bars and such will look terrible, maybe
not even functional, if the code page is not UTF-8.

Window - Translation
  Character set translation on received data
  Received data assumed to be in which character set
  UTF-8 

See if that helps any.  (You do know to switch to an SSH client
immediately after configuring the network and the SSH server
used by the installer, right?)

Re: RAID 1 - software or hardware.

2011-12-21 Thread yudi v

 I'd go for hardware RAID as long as there is a true and real hardware
 RAID controller behind with a battery backup et al (in brief, a *good*
 RAID controller, not the motherboard's one which are usually nothing but
 fakeraid and a pile of unforeseen problems).

 Otherwise I would use software RAID (md).

 Aren't hardware RAID cards really expensive. I am just trying to get some
form of redundancy. I wish linux has something similar to ZFS. The options
in ZFS for data redundancy are just awesome.

I guess my best bet is to go with software RAID.

Thanks

Re: Everything seems to cause a reboot

2011-12-21 Thread goossens

s I said, the first step is to simply buy a cheapo modern PS/2 or USB
keyboard and see if the problem goes away.  If it does, try a USB
adapter on the Model M.  If that works, great.  If not, more
troubleshooting awaits you. :(


OK.

btw I have usb mouse.  Machine only has a single ps2 port, coloured half
purple half pink.

So if I boot into recovery and startx  (no gdm) I still get reboot on
Alt-Ctrl-F1.  If I use a cheapo ps2 kb, same problem.  If I use a usb
keyboard, same problem.  It seems to be an issue with X remapping some of
the hardware control codes (I'm sure my terminology is bad).

So as far as I can see It is not the kb.  And as I said, I get weird
behaviour when I logout through the gui, making no use of the KB at all.

I have used this kb with squeeze i386 no worries.  I have also used it on
slack 12.2 i386.  I am wondering if it relates to the AMD64 port in some
nefarious way.  I am going to boot a live disk and see if my machine
behaves then.

So far, it looks really weird.  It does not seem to be hardware since if I
boot to CLI I get a well-behaved system.  Does X add a layer that
reinteprets all the signals regarding reboot, Alt-Ctrl-F1, etc, and could
it be getting them wrong?  I get the bad behaviour if I don't load HAL,
btw.  Whatever HAL is.

Many thanks
