Because THIS Brother supplied ppd has the characters BR prepended to every variable name in the duplex control stanza? You can edit the BR's out of the ppd, restart cups, and these option ARE then visible and settable in the print options dialogs. But then of course without the BR in the option string, the printer ignores it as just so much noise? Somehow I think this is the real problem. One other attempt: I just set the emulation to be fixed at HP LaserJet, but cups has about 15,000 such HP drivers. I could finish wearing out the printer by the time I found the right version. :( :( From a printout of its settings, non-duplexed because that was turned off but I just turned it back on, the HP LaserJet section looks like this: -Font No. :IO59 -Font Pitch :10.00 -Symbol Set :PC-8 -Auto LF:Off -Auto CR:Off -Auto WRAP :Off -Left Margin:0 -Right Margin :80 -Top Margin :0.50 -Bottom Margin :0.50 -Lines :60 Under the Active Services, which is under the network settings printout on page 3, I see this list of services BRN001BA9E3811F BINARY_P1 TEXT_P1 POSTSCRIPT_P1 PCL_P1 BRN001BA9E3811F_AT I get the impression that it loses capabilities when emulating the LaserJet. But from this, can a suggested driver even be determined? In which case, please suggest. I did find a driver that almost works, but the color output has a quite pronounced magenta overcast to it. And every job sent logs an error to the cups screen: Unable to write data: broken pipe So the foomatic LaserJet hp4550 pxlcolor is not the right one, duplex works, but the color are nasty. I have tried several other familys of the HP LaserJet line, but I generally lose the duplex when I do. I'll see if I can find the reservoir for all the ppd's and do a little grepping to find those with duplexing functions. A filter the cups configuration menu is severely lacking in. Likewise, all these other drivers have no color tweaking facilities, something the brother drivers can do for every conceivable color combination. Later, after some coffee has been absorbed. Up way too darned early for a retired old fart. I have not rx'd any replies from bugs.debian.org, is it not setup to do that automatically? Thanks all.

Just trying to get the specs on it. Curious. No matter as it seems installing watchdog solved your problem. Although, why watchdog wasn't installed in the first place or why it needed to be installed at all. ??? It's not on my Wheezy system, and I have no problems. Of course, my current system is 1 to 8 years old depending on which part. ;-) It seems that something was calling watchdog, which wasn't installed, so it seems that everything froze because of it. reasonably okay except for the occasional crashes. For instance, I've had it a fortnight now and its longest uptime has been just over 3 days, even though its on all the time! What OS did it come with Windows 7 or 8? Did the machine crash when running Windows? If yes, you could have a hardware problem. If no, then it's probably a Linux problem. 8.1, which was very soon removed to install wheezy to upgrade to jessie. You seemed to have installed Jessie 32-bit based on your other posting -- installed watchedog . . . i386. What version of Jessie? It's at RC1 as of 25 Jan. It was installed on 10th February, a netinstall of wheezy. Then upgraded to jessie on the same day. Dual boot or did you wipe out Windows? GNOME3 desktop? Fluxbox, I went into gnome once whilst I installed fluxbox, and there I remain. When GNOME went to 3, I stopped using GNOME. It caused more problems than it was worth. Even installing another environment or just using a window manager, it still got in the way. Ultimately, when I upgraded to Debian Wheezy (from Fedora 12) I did a netinstall, Basic System. Added what I wanted -- X, etc. -- service by service, app by app. You should be able to choose which environment or window manager you want on the login page. If you set Fluxbox as the Default, system should boot to it the next time and every time until you change it. Here's what I'd do. Start over from zero. You could have a corrupted install. Wipe out your current Jessie. Download and install the most current 64-bit version. Do a checksum on the download itself and the CD or DVD after burning. Depending on your Internet connection, a netinstall CD will get you an up-to-date system when the install is completed. Everything is working okay, that crashing was the only problem, so thanks, but I'm staying with it as it is. The setup was missing watchdog which is now installed. But it is a good idea to get a new 64-bit version, my install disk was burnt on 28 May 2013 so it does need to be replaced. You said you upgraded from Wheezy. When or if, you reinstall Jessie, just get the latest version and do a clean install. I've never done a distribution upgrade that didn't require fixing in some way or other. Clean installs are the least problematical. Good advice, which I'm going to follow.

In trying to use a standard Debian installer iso, and booting into rescue mode, I got toa screen select partition into which to install the root system, or words to that effect. I have 13 partitions, and that screen does not provide any information, such as labels or filesystem types, for the partitions, so I have to figure out which is the appropriate partition to use as the root system. It does not indicate anything like A previous Debian installation was found in partition x, so you might want to use this partition. So, I have to remove the disk with that iso image, boot with a LiveCD disk, and, examine the partitions. The laptop computer, to which all of this appiles, whilst being (to me) a fairly powerful computer, has an inferior optical disk drive, that appears to be designed to be as diffiocult as possible, to manually open, often taking uip to 20-30 minutes, to get it to open manually, to remove or replace the removable optical disk. Often, software, including operating system installation iso images, include a software utility, that ejects the optical disk. The Debian 7.8 installation iso image that I downloaded, both in the rescue mode, and, in the main menu, does not include an option Abort installation, at any step that I encountered, wherein, an Abort installation option, involves ejecting the removable media, and a message Remove the removable media and press ENTER to reboot. On this laptop PC, that appears designed to obstruct manual ejection of removable media, software induced ejection of the optical removable media, constistently works without any problem. Why does the Debian standard installation iso image, not include an Abort installation option (at each screen, although, even, a single instantiation, on the primary menu, would help, by rebooting the system into that menu, to do it, if that is the only way to access that option), that would enable ejection of the removable media with the iso image, instead of making this so difficult, to extract the removable media with the iso image? Have you tried configfile? configfile is a grub command that can be used to 'connect' to grub eg 1. if your (working) debian's root is in /dev/sda5 Then at the grub prompt try issuing the command configfile (hd0,5)/boot/grub/grub.cfg 2.

I'll argue that point, something has changed between wheezy and lucid that is now causing the bug. Yes it (the Brother PPD, read it, attached if the server will pass it) does AND cups CAN select it, so why cannot the rest of the system make use of it? Question: How can I show this dialogue interchange between cups and the GTK or Qt print dialogs? A Clue and the only one I have ATM: These options become unghosted and selectable in both of the print dialogs IF the two characters 'BR' are removed from all those strings in the Brother ppd. But then, despite being able to select them in the print dialogs, it still does _not_ work. BTDT about 3 times now. So that 'patch' is incomplete because the printer does not (apparently) understand it with the BR's removed. It did work, has worked for about 2 years now, and the firmware in the printer has not been changed after the initial reload two years ago. The inability to print in duplex is not related to the greying-out in the print dialogues. Cheers, Gene Heskett -- There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.

And since we've been chasing our collective tailks for what, 10 days now, its obviously not going to get fixed until the debian bug fixers who deal with printing actually read this thread. bugs.debian.org is, as far as being able to describe the error, miserably lacking because the only place you can try is in the ending comments, which apparently aren't being read. No reply in about 24 hours. What sort of a time frame should I expect? It isn't a Debian bug. You haven't got a working driver for Linux. Try to get it from Ubuntu 10.04 since Ubuntu 14.04 hasn't got it either. I have also done that, it doesn't work duplex either, but it shows in the cups dialog just fine.

Maybe it's 'system-config-printer-kde'. It's not. The duplex facilities are not available for any application using the GTK or Qt print dialogues because CUPS has not provided information about them. CUPS has not provided information about them them because it gets its information from the Duplex option in the PPD file. The brother PPD does not provide such an option. There is no bug. I'll argue that point, something has changed between wheezy and lucid that is now causing the bug. Yes it (the Brother PPD, read it, attached if the server will pass it) does AND cups CAN select it, so why cannot the rest of the system make use of it? Question: How can I show this dialogue interchange between cups and the GTK or Qt print dialogs? A Clue and the only one I have ATM: These options become unghosted and selectable in both of the print dialogs IF the two characters 'BR' are removed from all those strings in the Brother ppd. But then, despite being able to select them in the print dialogs, it still does _not_ work. BTDT about 3 times now. So that 'patch' is incomplete because the printer does not (apparently) understand it with the BR's removed. It did work, has worked for about 2 years now, and the firmware in the printer has not been changed after the initial reload two years ago. The inability to print in duplex is not related to the greying-out in the print dialogues. Cheers, Gene Heskett So the ppd did make it thru the server, it was 32kb, but apparently the installer script, at 89k or so, did not. The whole message seems to be blocked.

hplip-gui failed to connect my wireless printer HP
Hello, I installed jessie on a USB-drive and when I try to connect my printer using wifi with hplip-gui it works fine until the fourth stage but the fifth step fails. However on the same machine on the internal drive is installed wheezy and I configure the wireless connection (on the same printer) successfully. I enclose a screenshot of the fifth stage. Is it a bug or a simple solution exist? tia -- Gerard ___ *** * Created with mutt 1.5.21-6.2+deb7u3 * * under Debian Linux WHEEZY version 7.8 * * Registered Linux User #388243 * * https://Linuxcounter.net * ***

Re: running kodi (xmbc) on debian
On 2015-02-22 07:24:31 PM, Michael Fothergill wrote: I notice that you can run something called kodi on linux that allows TV channel shows to be downloaded and watched on your PC. Last time I looked at this, which was admittedly awhile ago, it was downloading these shows from a TV torrent site. This sort of task is not something that you need XBMC/Kodi for, and I found their implementation of it very lacking. I ended up using transmission and an rss feed to do the same thing but without XBMC/Kodi mucking things up. You could however, try what they call freesat and run that in conjunction with either chromecast, netflix or Amazon instant video. But I think at least in principle, a lot of the free stuff you could get with freesat you could find online via kodi, and (if I understand it correctly) if you used e.g. Amazon instant video there would be a way to access it via kodi along with the free stuff. For whatever reason, Netflix and Amazon video only seem to work happily inside of a browser these days. I know that in the past Netflix explicitly didn't work on Linux, and required doing some virtualization if you wanted to use it. I still don't know if they will stream HD to a Linux box. In the end, I decided that downloading was better than streaming. I read somewhere online that if you ran Amazon instant video via kodi on your PC it wouldn't allow you to get HD channels for security reasons but you could get the HD channels if you used the Amazon fire box. Just FYI, Amazon also blocks HD if you try to play it through the Chromecast. For me at any rate, it seems that if you have a pc and a TV then you should not need a TV box. I am interested to know a couple of things. Has anyone tried using e.g. kodi and Amazon instant video in the debian world, and, what other software other than kodi are people currently using? I've been using Debian's XBMC on an old laptop connected to the TV for a long time. *Mostly* it works really well and is much better than any commercial product I've used. That said, the XBMC version that comes with Debian is old, and a lot of the scripts in the XBMC repository don't apply to it. I installed Kodi a couple weeks ago, but eventually got rid of it because it wasn't getting along with Xmonad. In my time using it, I still noticed some of the scripts were broken or just low quality, and required digging through forum posts in order to make them work. I think that a lot of the HTPC software tries to hide the fact that it's running on a computer, or encourages you to never leave its own interface. I think that this is a mistake. I use XBMC to access a nice list of video on a media server. I use mpd to listen to music. I use a web browser to watch web videos. I use a console to launch emulators. I control everything with a IR reciever, a logitech harmony remote, and a wireless keyboard. From reading your responses, it seems to me that if I subscribe to Amazon Instant Video and then hook up my TV via HMDI as in effect a monitor for the pc and load up the browser I should be able to watch the channels effectively on the TV. The mouse I use is wireless so I reckon I could choose the channels with that. So I would not need the IR receiver or a remote etc. The xbmc does not seem much better than freesat. I think a freesat box plus the Amazon through the browser would work for me. Thanks. MF Hope this helps, MM wireless keyboard. Hope this helps, MM

But I'm just a user of Docbook with jw script (a handy tool) and don't know the structure of the DocBook files and programs. Does anyone could suggest a step by step for me to do this migration? Should I have to migrate to newer versions of Debian or just install some packages in my Debian Squeeze? What output format do you want? For HTML, simply running a XSLT processor (such as the one in package xsltproc) against the stylesheet (contained in package docbook-xsl for Docbook 5 or docbook-xsl-ns for Docbook 5) is enough. See the documentation for the packages for a list of available stylesheets. For other formats I cannot help you much, but I believe the first step is similar: use a stylesheet to convert the docboock source to an intermediate format, which is then processed by specific tools to generate the final output. Hi Eduardo, I saw that there is a lot of information in the tutorial: http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/index.html I already have many documents sources with which I've been using the script jw to output in html. Could you possibly give me some tips on how to use the xlstproc in Debian Squeeze? For example, I saw that there is a package: xsltproc - XSLT 1.0 command line processor I think that I should install this package: apt-get install xsltproc What else? And what changes I should do in the header of my source documents? At the moment they are: ?xml version=1.0 encoding=ISO-8859-1? !DOCTYPE article PUBLIC -//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.1.2//EN /usr/share/sgml/docbook/xml-dtd-4.1.2/docbookx.dtd And what command I should run to generate the html files?

And what changes I should do in the header of my source documents? None. Unless you would want to update to a newer version, but that is not necessary. And it would need more changes than simply the header. And what command I should run to generate the html files? Again, man xsltproc has the details, but basically something like xsltproc /usr/share/xml/docbook/stylesheet/docbook-xsl/xhtml/chunk.xsl file.xml There are other stylesheets, such as for HTML 4, XHTML 1.1, and also stylesheets that output everything in a single html file.

I can duplex print if I use one of the foomatic postscript drivers, but of the ones I have tried, everyone works, and then crashes the printer so it has to be powerdown reset to retre it for the next job. May I remind everyone that the cups test page is ONE page, and therefore cannot, will not, exercise the duplex functions. A 2 page test page would be handier than bottled beer for troubleshooting this, but we don't have one I just tested printing from a Jessie VM here on my Epson printer. When set to duplex, it pulls the page back in, and then spits it out again, although it hasn't printed anything on the back. When I tried from an OpenSUSE VM, it actually printed on both sides. Attached, if the server lets it through. It did, and it was opened by kghostview for display when I dbl-clicked on it. kghostview's printer dialog can see AND adjust the options. I left the default long edge binding duplex setting in place and printed it, AND IT WORKED! Yay! Congratulations! :-) I guess that counts as progress :) But that printer dialog is obviously not one of the two I have been dealing with here. It is TDEPrint , and appears to work exactly as expected. Odd that the others don't. So we have now learned that it can work on wheezy, if the right printer dialog issues the command to (cups version) lp. Do we still have the group in denial? Now, if I can determine from the help screens of the other print dialogs and determine what their names are, I can begin to file meaningful bugs. I opened the file here, in evince and launced the print dialog. From what I can see the dialog is not a separate process, so maybe you could try filing a bug against whatever application you are trying to print from that fails, with a note that it works from kghostview/TDE? That will have to wait, I need to get some laundry done and take a shower etc, as I have an appointment with a Moh's surgeon to take a look at a sore on my nose tomorrow afternoon.

Question: How can I show this dialogue interchange between cups and the GTK or Qt print dialogs? You have described the result of the interchange below. A Clue and the only one I have ATM: These options become unghosted and selectable in both of the print dialogs IF the two characters 'BR' are removed from all those strings in the Brother ppd. But then, despite being able to select them in the print dialogs, it still does _not_ work. BTDT about 3 times now. So that 'patch' is incomplete because the printer does not (apparently) understand it with the BR's removed. It did work, has worked for about 2 years now, and the firmware in the printer has not been changed after the initial reload two years ago. The inability to print in duplex is not related to the greying-out in the print dialogues. You didn't comment on this but I'll add that the greying-out is a red herring (as is the invoking of poppler) as far as the cause of your problem with duplex printing is concerned. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Re: Question about GRUB recovery using Debian 7.x LiveCD
Bret Busby wrote: In trying to use a standard Debian installer iso, and booting into rescue mode, I got toa screen select partition into which to install the root system, or words to that effect. Does it say Rescue mode in the corner? It should. Here is the official documentation for it: http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/ch08s07.html.en But that is fairly terse. Let me say that the rescue mode looks just like the install mode initially. It will ask you keyboard and locale questions and you might wonder if you are rescuing or installing! But it will have Rescue in the corners so that you can tell and be assured. Get the tool set up with keyboard, locale, timezone, and similar and eventually it will give you a menu with a list of actions. Advanced options... Rescue mode keyboard ...starts networking... hostname domainname ...apt update release files... ...loading additional components, Retrieving udebs... ...detecting disks... Then eventually it will get to a menu Enter rescue mode that will ask what device to use as a root file system. It will list the partitions that it has automatically detected. (If you have raid or lvm then it will list options for those. If not then just the simple disks.) Select the appropriate partition from the list. Then continue. At that point it presents a menu Execute a shell in /dev/ That is what you want. That should get you a shell on your system with everything needed mounted. I have 13 partitions, and that screen does not provide any information, such as labels or filesystem types, for the partitions, so I have to figure out which is the appropriate partition to use as the root system. It does not indicate anything like A previous Debian installation was found in partition x, so you might want to use this partition. If you truly don't know then you will have to look at them individually and figure it out. So, I have to remove the disk with that iso image, boot with a LiveCD disk, and, examine the partitions. Of course using the livecd is fine too. But since you were right there ready to look already it is a shame to have to reboot and wait for the much longer boot time from the live cd. You can do it from rescue-mode right then, figure it out, then select that partition that you determined to be the right one. Simply select the option to execute a shell in the installer environment and then browse. By browsing I mean look at the partition type. The partition type will tell you which partitions are not swap. Start at the top and work down through the list. mount -o ro /dev/sda1 /mnt ls /mnt cat /mnt/etc/hostname cat /mnt/etc/debian_version umount /mnt mount -o ro /dev/sda2 /mnt ls /mnt cat /mnt/etc/hostname cat /mnt/etc/debian_version umount /mnt mount -o ro /dev/sda3 /mnt ls /mnt cat /mnt/etc/hostname cat /mnt/etc/debian_version umount /mnt Eventually you should be able to figure out which is the root partition. Using that information select it from the rescue menu. The laptop computer, to which all of this appiles, whilst being (to me) a fairly powerful computer, has an inferior optical disk drive, that appears to be designed to be as diffiocult as possible, to manually open, often taking uip to 20-30 minutes, to get it to open manually, to remove or replace the removable optical disk. And that is exactly why I wouldn't do it. Sounds very painful. I, like some of other commenters, if needing to do this would probably resort to completely powering off the machine and ejecting the cdrom using a paperclip. The Debian 7.8 installation iso image that I downloaded, both in the rescue mode, and, in the main menu, does not include an option Abort installation, at any step that I encountered, wherein, an Abort installation option, involves ejecting the removable media, and a message Remove the removable media and press ENTER to reboot. I grabbed two screenshots from a VM test. I will put them here for at least a little while. I should do something more organized later and will probably move them after a while. http://www.proulx.com/~bob/debian/debian-installer-images/ The text of the menu will say: Device to use as root file system: /dev/sda1 Assemble RAID array Do not use a root file system Go Back Press TAB to highlight the Go Back option and then Enter to select it. That will go back to the main menu. The bottom of the main menu shows the options Execute a shell (very useful) and also has the menu option Abort the installation. Scroll to the bottom and see that the last menu option is Abort the installation. Why does the Debian standard installation iso image, not include an Abort installation option (at each screen, although, even, a single instantiation, on the primary menu, would help, by rebooting the system into that menu, to do it, if that is the only way to access that option), that would enable ejection of the

Likewise the QT4 version is used with which programs? At least one of them is not proud enough of its name to offer up its name up for public view, or ridicule as the case might be. Yes it (the Brother PPD, read it, attached if the server will pass it) does AND cups CAN select it, so why cannot the rest of the system make use of it? Question: How can I show this dialogue interchange between cups and the GTK or Qt print dialogs? You have described the result of the interchange below. A Clue and the only one I have ATM: These options become unghosted and selectable in both of the print dialogs IF the two characters 'BR' are removed from all those strings in the Brother ppd. But then, despite being able to select them in the print dialogs, it still does _not_ work. BTDT about 3 times now. So that 'patch' is incomplete because the printer does not (apparently) understand it with the BR's removed. It did work, has worked for about 2 years now, and the firmware in the printer has not been changed after the initial reload two years ago. The inability to print in duplex is not related to the greying-out in the print dialogues. You didn't comment on this but I'll add that the greying-out is a red herring (as is the invoking of poppler) as far as the cause of your problem with duplex printing is concerned.

This printer also has a wifi interface, but I figured two ways to drive it was enough. The ethernet data transfer phase is faster than the USB2.0, but its moot speedwise when using duplex mode as its 19 ppm speed when printing straight through drops to about 2 ppm in duplex mode due to all the internal paper shuffling. I suspect that short edge binding would be faster as in the long edge mode I can hear the paper being shuffled around internally for many seconds before I actually hear it make another trip past the drums. But did you ever go to staples and look for a 3 ring binder for landscape printouts? Or a paper punch that could be spaced for that? Donbesilly. Both are made out that elusive stuff called Pure Unobtainium. I'm sure you've heard of the stuff. :) Maybe in NYC or LA, but this is equ to West Podunk here in Weston WV. Like any printer, it jams occasionally, and 99% of the time it instructs me to open the back door and remove the jam, but have never found anything to remove AND its sufficient to clear the jam if the door is opened far enough to be detected, and closed again. But throw away that sheet of paper when it does come out because it will print you a 2nd, good copy of those 2 pages when it thinks its jammed or whatever. In about 4000 pages so far, I have actually had to remove a crumpled up sheet of paper once. We wore out several HP-4550's in the news dept at the tv station, years ago now, and they jammed much more frequently. And didn't last the 100,000 pages they were rated for either. Anyway, I have apparently made it work, its time to quite poking at it with a stick. If okular and evince can now use it all the time, I am a happy camper, at least in this park.

And also the package with the XSL stylesheets, which, for Docbook 4, is docbook-xsl. And what changes I should do in the header of my source documents? None. Unless you would want to update to a newer version, but that is not necessary. And it would need more changes than simply the header. And what command I should run to generate the html files? Again, man xsltproc has the details, but basically something like xsltproc /usr/share/xml/docbook/stylesheet/docbook-xsl/xhtml/chunk.xsl file.xml There are other stylesheets, such as for HTML 4, XHTML 1.1, and also stylesheets that output everything in a single html file. See the documentation under /usr/share/doc/docbook-xsl for more details. Hi Eduardo, I intend to read carefully the tutorials (Ex: www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl) to better understand DocBook XSL but at the moment I'm needing to generate html documents quickly. And your tips worked. Thank you very much. Markos -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Re: Questions sur l'utilisation de KVM/Qemu sur un serveur
Bonjour, Le mercredi 25 février 2015, Olivier a écrit... 1. Dans mes premiers essais, j'essaie d'installer une VM Jessie sans interface graphique en ligne de commande. Voici ce que j'obtiens: $ virt-install --connect qemu:///system --name SecondVM --ram 512 --cdrom=/var/lib/libvirt/images/debian-jessie-DI-rc1-i386-netinst.iso --disk path=/home/foobar/VirtualMachines/SecondVM.qcow2,size=10 --network bridge=br0 WARNING CDROM media does not print to the text console by default, so you likely will not see text install output. You might want to use --location. Starting install... Creating domain... |0 B 00:00 Connected to domain SecondVM Escape character is ^] Ceci me laisse perplexe. Comment faire pour accéder aux écrans de l'installeur debian ? En lisant le contenu de man virt-install, je ne vois pas quelle valeur donnerau paramètre --location recommandé. En tapant ^] (ie Ctrl + ]), j'obtiens: )Domain installation still in progress. You can reconnect to the console to complete the installation process. ... mais je ne sais pas comment me reconnecter à la console. Avec vnc. Normalement, tu as un serveur vnc sur le port 5901 par défaut pour une vm. Configurable dans le fichier .xml de la vm. Par exemple : graphics type='vnc' port='5910' autoport='no'/ Lorsque ta vm est active, tu peux configurer le /etc/default/grub de la vm pour y accéder via `virsh console domaine`, en y mettant : GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT= GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=text console=tty0 console=ttyS0,38400n8 noapic nolapic GRUB_TERMINAL=serial GRUB_SERIAL_COMMAND=serial --speed=38400 --unit=0 --word=8 --parity=no --stop=1 C'est plus pratique que le client/serveur vnc 2. Compte tenu de mon environnement, me sera-t-il bien possible d'accéder par le réseau à une VM sous Windows ? Joker. Windows, c'est quoi ? Bon, j'avais une vm avec un serveur TSE dessus, mais ce n'était pas moi qui m'en occupais. 3. J'envisage d'utiliser LVM pour gérer les disques des VM. J'ai créé pour cela un groupe de volume dédié. Mon objectif est de pouvoir faire facilement des snapshots via virt-manager. Est-ce la bonne approche ? Que conseillez-vous ? J'ai utilisé des vm's comme ça (et j'en ai 2 sur ma propre machine). C'est assez pratique. Il est facile de monter les partitions des vm's avec kpartx si on veut intervenir dessus. Il peut être opportun de configurer le partitionnement des vm's avec du lvm également, pour les extensions de volumes. -- jm -- Lisez la FAQ de la liste avant de poser une question : http://wiki.debian.org/fr/FrenchLists Pour vous DESABONNER, envoyez un message avec comme objet unsubscribe vers debian-user-french-requ...@lists.debian.org En cas de soucis, contactez EN ANGLAIS listmas...@lists.debian.org Archive: https://lists.debian.org/20150225220124.GC2276@espinasse
