slow connection improvement using debdelta

[songbird]

  For Richard and others at the end of a slower
connection or dialup.

  give debdelta a try.

  seems to be working well for me other
than some timeouts, but i just restart it
and eventually it finishes.

  compared to a regular update run it's
saving me quite a bit of time.

  just one example from my current update run:

Created,time 167.18sec, speed 19kB/sec, locales-all_2.17-2_i386.deb 
 Patching done, time 10.73sec, speed 441k/sec (script 8.94sec 530k/sec) 
(unaccounted 1.79sec)

Should I trust SMART monitoring tools or the Linux kernel drivers?

[Albretch Mueller]

~
 I have a Maxtor OneTouch 2HAS5DYX drive that intermittently gives me
problems. Like when I make my box go into "suspend" mode for a while,
it doesn't mount itself when I reawaken it and I have to unmount and
remount it manually
~
 when the box is under heavy load (e.g., heat fan is revving). The
mini drive has the tendency to shutdown by itself with error messages:
~
[35223.216654] usb 1-8: device descriptor read/8, error -110
[35226.942174] usb 1-8: device descriptor read/8, error -71
~
 I have read it happens as a protective measure when its interfacing
circuitry notices that the USB cable does not provide enough power
~
 Linux kernel and SMART report logs:
~
 http://hsymbolicus.wordpress.com/?attachment_id=652
~
 are not clear to me. The Linux kernel:
~
# uname -a
Linux Microknoppix 3.3.7 #38 SMP PREEMPT Tue May 22 06:21:01 CEST 2012
i686 GNU/Linux
~
 seems to be handling the disk just fine
~
 It is time to discard that drive? Or, can I still use it with extra
case and occasionally?
~
 thanks,
 lbrtchx

Re: About installation DVD's

[cletusjenkins]

There are 3 dvd's for wheezy:

debian-7.0.0-amd64-DVD-1.iso 2013-05-04 17:14 3.7G
debian-7.0.0-amd64-DVD-2.iso 2013-05-04 17:14 4.4G
debian-7.0.0-amd64-DVD-3.iso 2013-05-04 17:14 4.4G

So just add up the GB's and divide that by your internet connection speed. I 
would recommend bittorrent rather than jigdo unless you are very familiar with 
it. You could get 95% of the software a typical enduser needs from just the 
first DVD. If you were to download the first two CD iso's you'd have a goodly 
chunk of that important 95%. Anything else can be downloaded a part of the 
installation or later. You don't need all the disks to install.

Sir I am living in a remote area so I have to buy finished dvd's. Vendors
release full installation dvd's only when they are available for download
through http,ftp or torrents. How many months it would take to download
remaining seven iso's using http,ftp or torrents.

Thanks. Single-user mode helped. More memory helped.
And now I'm able to do some testing...

Thanks also to Ralf Maldorf and Patrick Bartek, 
for your suggestions.

Re: Wheezy on PC with KVM PS/2 VGA (keyboard video mouse) freeze

Installed Debian 7.0 Wheezy on a PC.

Are there some settings in Debian 7.0 Wheezy so that it will be KVM

Note that the same PC running Windows XP have no problem with KVM.


What is your KVM make and model?

Several years ago I went through a half dozen buy, try, return cycles 
with KVM's until I finally found one that worked correctly with Windows, 
Linux, and *BSD -- IOGEAR GCS78.  I never found operating system 
solutions to the problems the various units had; it's the firmware in 
the KVM that matters.


I later needed an adapter to convert the KVM's PS/2 mouse and PS/2 
keyboard to USB for a laptop, and settled on the IOGEAR GUC100KM.


Since that time, the GUC100KM was redesigned and the new model doesn't 
work as reliably as the old one.


I've recently discovered that the KVM doesn't pass EDID information 
between the video card and monitor, which is a problem for Debian 
systems with NVIDIA graphics and the nouveau X driver:


http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2013/04/msg00368.html

So, I'm due for a new KVM.

What KVM's are other people using, and how well do they work with PS/2 
and USB mice, PS/2 and USB keyboards, VGA, DVI-D, DVI-I, and DP 
graphics, sound, and microphones?

Re: Re: Wheezy missing IDE modules

[rlwbonsai]

The 3.8 kernel from Sid is much worse for this problem.  The
3.2.0-4 default Wheezy kernel is bad.  The default Squeeze kernel
2.6.32-5-486 works with gxine to render good video.

If you get root on it, you can use it like any *nix machine.  Getting root is 
the hard part.  I will not assist in this, because it is now illegal to root 
tablets in the US that were not already pwned before Jan 1, 2013.  For non US 
residents, there are instructions to be Googled for.  A popular package to 
install on tablets is Clockwork Mod, or CM.

There are ways to get Ubuntu on some tablets, like the Nexus 7.  A Debian port 
would not surprise me. 


I installed Debian on a Windows machine recently using goodbye-Microsoft.  It 
is out-of-date, but it works.  It will allow you to partition the HD and 
dual-boot Debian and Windows.  Win 8 even works, but you have to run 
goodbye-Microsoft in Win 7 compatibility mode.

I gave up on qemu a long time ago, and switched to Virtualbox for all
my VM needs.

Also, I've used Fedora as my primary OS for 7 or 8 years until just
recently switching to Wheezy, and you'll need more than 512MB of RAM to
install or run a contemporary Fedora release. If you have the RAM, I
suggest allotting 2GB minimum to run GNOME and do anything useful. 4
would be better.

I've had a similar problem recently when trying to run the Fedora live
image. It helped a lot more when I gave the system more memory - 512M
is very small for a graphical desktop these days. You'll still be
stuck with fallback mode though, I guess.

LVM mounting problems

[Gary Roach]

Hi all,

I needed to expand my Debian Wheezy system by adding a 1 TB drive and 
decided to switch over to LVM2 in the process. I rolled up my old 160 GB 
drive into the 1 TB drive and called the whole thing "bigdisk" and 
chopped the drive into 3 logical volumes. Everything seemed to work 
until I started to try mounting the logical volumes. On boot up with the 
fstab file shown below, the system gets a whole bunch of mod-probe 
errors and finally drops into the maintenance mode. If I go in and # out 
the 3 lines shown the boot goes as normal. My setup is:

Using qemu to boot Fedora x86_64 iso

[Joel Roth]

Hi list,

This is borderling off-topic: I'm using qemu under Debian to
try to run the latest Fedora 64-bit .iso. 

qemu-system-x86_64 --enable-kvm -cdrom Fedora-18-x86_64-Live-Desktop.iso -m 512 
linux.img

Fedora boots, the spinner-pointer runs, and eventually the
system hangs showing a monitor logo and the message 
"Please ask the administrator for assistance."

I'd like to do some testing in a virtual machine.
Wonder if anyone has suggestions to get a better result.

Regards,

Ok, good. I need three more things:

1) File /tmp/1.cap from: 
tcpdump -nn -s0 -i lo tcp port 22 -w /tmp/1.cap

Interrupt tcpdump with Ctrl+C once done with `ssh localhost` (I assume you've 
enabled aes back).

2) /var/log/kern.log, which should include info from last boot.
Any other kern.log.X will do, of course.

3) Output of /sbin/ifconfig -a

These modules are not provided because they have been obsoleted by
Libata.  I very much doubt the Squeeze kernel uses them on your system.

The error messages come from modprobe, probably because the missing
modules are listed in /etc/modules.

Of course not.  You could try a newer kernel, say 3.8 from unstable,
and/or file a bug report.

Debian 7 + Asterisk + Virtualbox excruciatingly slow after upgrade

[Ernie Dunbar]

We have a Debian virtual machine (hardware: Dual-core Xeon at 2.4Ghz, 4 
GB RAM, 2 GB of which is dedicated to the Debian VM) that's been running 
our Asterisk PBX for some time. Before Wheezy came out, it was doing 
reasonably well at its job, but now that we've upgraded to Wheezy, it's 
ridiculously slow, with load averages topping 15 on a regular basis. 
Naturally, at this server load, doing anything tests one's patience.


Is this due to the new kernel, or the new version of Asterisk? The 
Asterisk version went from 1.6 to 1.8, and I recall that 1.8 is more of 
a resource hog than the previous version... however, we also have 
another Debian server (running Squeeze) with Xeon processors (4 cores in 
total, but the same generation of Xeons), and Asterisk 1.8 never uses 
more than about 40% of *one* CPU.


I have few other clues as to what might be causing this problem, 
although the PHP upgrade also seems to be causing other, unrelated 
issues. Can anyone help me troubleshoot the problem better than I 
already have?

Ok. My idea was that in-kernel implementation of Intel's in-CPU AES 
instructions corrupts sshd connection.

Can you provide a result of
tcpdump -nn -s0 -i lo tcp port 22
?

If you don't want e-mail from Kobo, you can choose not to get it.  No
need for a fake e-mail address.  And as far as I can determine, Kobo
does not share your address.

Then the only way to get books on the device is with the microSD card,
and as I've said my ereader has problems with the card.

I don't use the Kobo Desktop either.  It's not really needed.  I just
log in to my account with a standard web browser, add books I want,
either paid or free, to my Library from Kobo's repsoitory, then download
them to the ereader's internal memory via "sync".  Of course, I need
wifi for that. And syncing updates the software, too, when there is one.
I can also do all that from the reader itself without the need of a
computer, but you need wifi, and sync IIRC is still run, so the reader
and your Kobo account on Kobo's server are the same.

I tried the factory reset, but there was such a considerable difference
in features, usability and performance between it and the first software
upgrade that I had to go with the newer software even if it meant
loosing the SD card access.

I haven't messed with ADE yet.  There are plenty of free and non-free
epub books out there.

Thank you for the reply Glenn :)

it's good to know that at least you are using the same card. It's
already possible to use the card for audio production on my machine and
the sound quality, especially of the phones output is awesome, but I
don't have a good work flow, since a production could always be
interrupted by xruns etc. and I need all ADAT channels. RME is willing
to help, if an ALSA developer should be interested and I got a reply at
ALSA user mailing list,
http://www.mail-archive.com/alsa-user@lists.sourceforge.net/msg29596.html .

Installing a Windows for test purpose becomes a PITA, I need to unplug
one of my SATA drives and I hot glued the connectors :D, hopefully it
does work, if I only disconnect the drive from power. I have to continue
now, I only missed to download http://cygwin.com/index.html , so I
booted Linux again and checked emails. I hope Cygwin will make it easier
to handle Windows.

I'll test Jack and Fluidsynth for Windows, but I'm not really
interested, I'm only doing it, to test the mobo and RME card.

YES! I thought I was the only one :-)

Actually, I haven't done any audio work on Linux for quite a while -- it was so 
hard to get the RME going, and it's falling off a log to work with Audacity on 
a Mac, though it doesn't have anything like the audio capabilities of Jack and 
Alsa and the other audio software I used to use back in the day (IIRC it was 
the first Debian release with Alsa). The horror stories about PulseAudio 
convinced me to not even try.

But my RME Hammerfall card and its software is by far the best computer audio 
I've ever experienced. If you get yours going, I'd sure like to know how you 
did it.

I'm sorry I can't help you beyond encouraging you to press on. OTOH I *do* know 
it has been seen working very well on my Linux box, and when it was working on

Looking at the package page[1], never. There was a version in squeeze and
there is a version in sid, but now that wheezy has been released, there
is (I think) no chance of packages being added to it.

This is the nature of "stable". A set of packages is formed and those
are maintained for the life of the release; security patches are
released but typically no new functionality is added.

If you need the package in wheezy, you will probably need to build it
yourself. The other (patient) way is to wait for it to enter testing,
and then request that the developer does the work[2] needed to backport
the changes to wheezy.

I am with problems in driver wireless:

$ lspci |grep Wireless
02:00.0 Network controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.
RTL8191SEvA Wireless LAN Controller (rev 10)

I did the steps in this tutorial wheezy [1], but the driver did not rise.

Debian version Jeesie/sid.

You are right, i took look into
http://ftp.sk.debian.org/debian/pool/main/i/isc-dhcp/ (my mirror) and
here is onnly 70u3 package. Perhaps it was removed for some reason, but
i don't know more...

mtpfs - wheezy

[Verde Denim]

Does anyone know when mtpfs will be released on wheezy? Apparently the
latest tools/deps are at mtp9, but mtpfs requires mtp8 in order to work.
I tried to install mtp8 but was unsuccessful due to other older deps.

I don't really know anything about it. I just googled "asus eee pc keyboard
stuck in fn mode", or something of the sort.  Apparently the above
toggles NUMLOCK (and maybe SHIFT NUMLOCK toggles it too, from what I've read).

Seems the problem is related to the laptop keyboard and not strictly
Debian, though.

Good luck.

I would suggest you ask on debian-live@l.d.o

zsync works differently:
http://zsync.moria.org.uk/

Also, a live image has the debs already installed. If you really want to 
use mirrors instead you would have to regenerate the image. See the 
live-build and live-image- packages.

Kind regards,
Andrei

Debian 7.0.0 "Live" images

[Chris Bell]

Hello,
   I normally use netinst for installations. However I have downloaded and
burned to disc all of the Debian 7.0.0 Live images with the intention of
showing the various desktops to people who do not know Debian or Linux so
they can decide which they prefer.
   Both the i386 Gnome and KDE versions refuse to open without a user
password and both refuse to shutdown without a root password.
   Both the i386 standard and rescue versions will shutdown using "sudo
shutdown -h now" (but not without using sudo), then ask me to remove the
disc but do not open or unlock the drive tray.
   /live/memtest is present but does not appear on the menu.
   Is there a simple help file on the disc? Preferably plain text so that it
can be read from any OS, and if possible also appear on the menu.
   There is a .zsync file for each disc but no .jigdo file, but can zsync be
used to build ISO images together with a local mirror?
   I have installed four independant bootable versions of Debian on a single
desktop computer, but my laptop does not have a hard drive that is large
enough.


Thanks to all concerned

RME cards: How to show board revision and the loaded firmware version?

[Ralf Mardorf]

Preliminary question and regarding to this question multiposted: Does
anybody still use a RME HDSPe AIO ;)?

Hi,

since the issues I get for my RME HDSPe AIO didn't became less, but more
within the last two years, I cleaned a primary partition to install XP,
just to test, if there are issues caused by the mobo, that will appear,
even when not using a *nix driver, but the proprietary driver and latest
RME firmware.

I'm a Linux only user, so sometime ago I installed FreeBSD, just to
test, if the RME card isn't borked, since on Linux only 2 ADAT channels
do work, fortunately all 8 ADAT channels work, using the FreeBSD driver
(no TotalMix).

I bought the card, because it was recommended by members of the Linux
audio community. Don't get me wrong, the blame is on me, I decided to
buy the card and had no time to use it within the first weeks, I only
want to point out, that I did research before I bought the card. I
wonder, if there are different revisions of the RME board?

I know I've written this several times, but somebody might not have read
it and it's a while ago since I ask for the situation of this card on
other machines.

Is there a command that shows the board revision and used firmware
version?

I run my Arch install without the alsa-firmware package and installed it
now.

$ uname -r
3.8.11-rt8-1-rt
$ pacman -Q alsa-firmware
error: package 'alsa-firmware' was not found
$ sudo pacman -Syu alsa-firmware
warning: ardour: ignoring package upgrade (2.8.16-1 => 3.1-1)
alsa-firmware-1.0.27-2
$ pacman -Q alsa-firmware
alsa-firmware 1.0.27-2

Can anybody use a HDSPe AIO on Linux with all available sample rates?
Store alsamixer settings? Does hdspeconf run? Use latency <= 10.7 ms?
Use any latency even => 10.7 ms with getting absolutely no xruns? Use
all ADAT channels?

OT: I noticed a thread at LAU about a PCIe card from another vendor,
that was recommended to work with Linux, but it doesn't (or didn't?).
Are there any PCIe cards available in the price range and audio quality
of the HDSPe AIO, that are DEFINITIVELY known as working with Linux?

Regards,
Ralf

Re: SSD settings for Wheezy

[Julien Groselle]

Hi John,

Take a look on this :
https://btrfs.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/FAQ#Is_Btrfs_optimized_for_SSD.3F
By the way, on my laptop, I have just one SSD, and I use btrfs on root with
/tmp and /var/log on tmpfs (RAM) to avoid simultaneous multiples write on
SSD.
I never switch off my laptop, I put it in standby or Hibernate mode... so I
never loss any logs...

For me and my use, it is the best way to take care of my SSD.

from Win is more convenient than creating a bootable USB stick.

Yes, that worked. Not sure why it didn't work the first time - maybe
one of the other options I added was needed too.
