You are correct, as an appimage, it fails to open anything, logging this 
to the konsole window as it dies:
gene@coyote:~$ inkscape
Setting _INKSCAPE_GC=disable as a workaround for broken libgc
Run experimental bundle that bundles everything

(process:1082): Gtk-WARNING **: 20:50:28.589: Locale not supported by C 
library.
Using the fallback 'C' locale.

(here I clicked on the open button)

(org.inkscape.Inkscape:1082): GLib-GIO-ERROR **: 20:51:17.953: Settings 
schema 'org.gtk.Settings.FileChooser' does not contain a key 
named 'show-type-column'
Trace/breakpoint trap
gene@coyote:~$ 

So while this thread may be solved, now we have a new problem. Anybody 
have a clue?   Sounds like my gtk is too old, (this is still stretch) 
but its supposed to be an AppImage. I don't believe it qualifies for 
that label, so I'd fuss at the inkscape folks. But I don't have a dog in 
this fight, and a 1920x1040 screen full of mailing lists already.

Imagine you are part of the team, and you've volunteered to shoulder
the responsibility for firmware-iwlwifi_20190114-2_all.deb. In order
to vet it, you have to track down, purchase and install 35 different
types of wifi "cards", and over half a dozen more for bluetooth. With
each, you need to run the first half dozen steps of the installer,
presumably by preseed.

I wrote "cards" because you're not just juggling PCI cards here, but
excavating tiny little boards out of the guts of various sorts of
laptop. But you picked an easy option. Many of the ethernet hardware
options are integrated with the mobo.

IMHO, "difficult" doesn't cover it. Nor expensive, nor tedious.

Cheers,
David.

Which ethernet device? You don't have one in your universe.
Now I realise why you wrote ethernet in quotation marks—you're
pretending it's an ethernet connection.

Why would there be? If you have a real Ethernet device, bought or
supplied by your real ISP, you just plug a Cat5 cable into it.

. You have a 10.7 amd64 DVD on a stick,

. You have a USB port on the laptop,

. Install it;

. It will work: "install from image of DVD1works."

. Upgrade to 10.8 like everyone else does.

. Then ascertain from *your* own *running* system what it requires
  for connectivity *before* you try to install something from scratch.
  It's called "bootstrapping": at each stage you need a little bit
  of a system that *works* to get you to the next stage.

For someone who doesn't use WiFi, that gizmo looks like a dud.
3/4/5G devices with ethernet do appear to exist, but the ones I've
seen are expensive. They throw in things like a firewall and so on.
But they're not a mass market, so it's hardly surprising they cost.

Cheers,
David.

Well, thanks all.
I have tried appimage for the first time, it launched but obviously
there is something wrong with my system other than inkscape itself, so I
have to figure out what that is first.

For now, I mark this thread as "Solved".

It would help reduce confusion if the OP would, upon solving a problem,
reply indicating that the problem is solved, and how to handle it.

Then the OP should start a new, independent, email thread with the new

OK. 

* In what order did you install Debian / Linux-x / Windows on the original
  machine?

* Are the two motherboards booting the same way - was one booting legacy/MBR 
  and is the other booting using UEFI?

* What happens if you boot into rescue mode for the Debian / boot using boot
  media and use rescue mode?

If you can boot using rescue media, say, and chroot into the Debian partition,
you can use the option to re-install GRUB

Windows 7

If you can't boot into Windows 7 - use the original install media to boot and 
boot from the DVD

One suggestion online is to use System Recovery Options and use Startup Repair
or a more complex route via Windows Commmand Prompt.

Ideally, you should not now be using Windows 7 (and, in fact, should not be 
using Windows at all - but that's another rant :-) )

All the very best, as ever,

... user units and system units are completely isolated from each other, 
so your After= and WantedBy= won't have the expected effect.

For WantedBy= you probably want (no pun intended) default.target 
instead.

This is a hack I'm using to order a user unite after a system unit is 
started:

ExecStartPre=/usr/bin/sh -c 'until systemctl --quiet is-active 
network-online.target ; do sleep 1 ; done'

Note: you should read on network-online.target in systemd.special(7) if 
you intend to follow my example.

Kind regards,

Re: cannot boot into Debian after transferring hard drive to another desktop computer

Hi.

A couple of questions.

* Do you use EFI or MBR/BIOS mode?

Was it set to AHCI in the previous motherboard?

As you so eloquently say, batshit ways. I'll argue that mine is in that

After Googling this error, I suspect that you're either operating in
an environment where the XDG variables are not being set properly,
or else dbus is actually not running.

How did you get to THAT specific shell, the one where you typed that
command and got that error?  Give details.

In that same shell, what does   env | grep XDG   give you?

How about   systemctl --user status   ?

Why not, All of the above! :)  

Right now I can't get this to work:

What do you mean with "enable"?

"Enable" as in "enable support"? Then everything is enabled.

Or "enable" as in "enable the unit"? Then "systemctl --user enable
unitname.service" does what you want.

Or "enable" as in "start at boot"? Then you to enable lingering for the

Ditto.

IMO it's important that each link to the official downloads is
accompanied by one to the unofficial ones. Otherwise the effect
is like letting go of a blind person's arm without first ensuring
that they know they've reached their destination.

Take amd64 PCs as an example, being perhaps the most popular
variety. There's an installer, DI, for that architecture. It's
bundled in various ways, depending on size of medium (CD/DVD)
and size of download (netinst/xfce). So for netinst, one arrives
at https://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/current/amd64/iso-cd/

The official images contain myriads of hardware drivers, most of
them from the linux kernel tree, to make them work on "those
hardware configurations", as you put it.

However, as you know, they lack the firmware that typically makes
the chip on the board know how to do what it does. The unofficial
*images* contain a collection of .debs, each of which contains
related or unrelated collections of firmware in various revisions.

In the example that I took (netinst), all this firmware, plus the
Packages files to describe them, is added to the official image's
contents, including exactly the same DI. Apart metadata text files
describing the contents, there's one binary file, the efi.img,
that contains a few bytes that differ between the two images.
So it really is *the* Debian installer.

Take one firmware .deb as an example, a popular one, iwlwifi.
It contains 56 discrete binary firmware files.

When using upstream software, it's your responsibility to configure your
shell the way you need, or to set up symlinks.

I don't know anything about inkscape or AppImage, but let's say you've
installed this inkscape thing under /opt/inkscape.  Let's also say it
has exactly one user-invokable program, /opt/inkscape/bin/inkscape, and
that you would like to be able to run it by typing "inkscape" in your
shell.

In that (extremely common) situation, you have two ways to proceed:

1) Adjust your dot files so that /opt/inkscape/bin is added to your PATH
   environment variable.

2) Create a symbolic link from /usr/local/bin/inkscape to
   /opt/inkscape/bin/inkscape.

Number 1 can be done without root privileges, but is *so* freaking hard
to explain to people because of all the utterly batshit insane ways
that people can login nowadays.  There is no way to give instructions
that will work for every Debian user.

Number 2 is simpler, and will make the program available to all users
on the system, but requires root privileges to enact.

If this $HOME/AppImages thing is like a personal /opt directory, then
choice number 2 for this situation would be to make the symlink from
$HOME/bin to $HOME/AppImages/whatever/inkscape.  This presumes that
you've already managed to configure your login so that $HOME/bin is
in your shell's PATH.  This is the default for Debian console logins
(due to /etc/skel/.profile), but may not be the case for various Display
Manager logins.

J'ai vu qu'il existait openrazer, des drivers et utilitaires pour

Si quelqu'un à la même, ou une autre, et qu'il sait comment autoriser

choix, celui indiqué plus haut, dans cheese).

Merci, et bon début de we.

Hombre... con 30 pestañas abiertas, pues es normal. Salvo que tengas

va lento.

Mira a ver si accediendo con un perfil nuevo, vacío, cargando esas

Lo que sigue sin mostrarme en aplicaciones predeterminadas la opción de
firefox, he revisado la lista de aplicaciones de

problema.

cannot boot into Debian after transferring hard drive to another desktop computer

2021-03-05 Thread kaye n

Hello Friends!

Desktop Computer One has a hard drive that is multiboot:  Windows 7,
Debian, and another linux operating system which I will call linux-x.

It seems that the MOTHERBOARD of Desktop Computer One has finally given out
(wild guess only, as even a linux live USB can't function properly).  I
took out the multiboot hard drive and put it in another desktop computer
which I call Desktop Computer Two.

Now I can boot into linux-x just fine with Desktop Computer Two.  I'm using
linux-x to type and send this email.  I have not tried the windows 7 yet.

However I cannot boot into Debian (I believe it is Debian 10).  I get this
message:

-
You are in emergency mode. After logging in, type "journalctl -xb" to view
system logs, "systemctl reboot" to reboot, "systemctl default" or "exit"
to boot into default mode.

Cannot open access to console, the root account is locked.
See sulogin(8) man page for more details.

Press Enter to continue.
---

If I press enter, I reach the Debian logo with the circling animation but
after a while I get the above message again.

If it matters, the UUID of both / and /home partitions of the Debian system
remain the same; I compared the info provided by Gparted and the /etc/fstab
in the Debian system.

Thank you for your time.

It should. I will try it later today. The frustration was amplified

Agreed...bad form...no excuse.

"scanimage -L" on the client did not show the scanner whereas on the 
server it did. I tried from both root and non-root users.



"doesn't work" could range from "can't see the scanner at all" to
"always produces a black image" to  "inexplicably fills the room with
rabid weasels".


Based on this (from the reference) "The server will now be sharing the 
USB connected scanner with other designated machines on the network. " I 
would have expected to be able to see the scanner on the client in the 
scanimage output without having to do anything else. On the Bullseye 
instance the scanimage output did show the scanner with no additional steps.


Thank you for the feedback.

Which works, but I just now looked at .profile, and found that when I 
looked at my $PATH, AppImage was not being added. I had several months 
ago, created a $HOME/AppImages directory to store them in.

It worked well for that, but wasn't being added to my $PATH. Seem like it 
might be handy if it was. 

It was easier to add the missing 's' those two places in my .profile than 
it was to fix all the links that would need to be fixed as I have plural 
AppImages in that location now..

Now any bash shell that doesn't have the right $PATH seems to be fixable 
by a ". $HOME/.profile".

Those of you with multiple users might want to become root and fix the 
copy in /etc/skel so new users are also blessed. But you'll need to add 
the whole if/fi stanza to it. It was missing in my copy here. And I just 
checked a buster install, which didn't have it.

Was there a valid reason its not? Or is the idea too new?

Cheers, Gene Heskett

Quote from the article:

In our performance charts, we show a line from two disks through 
eight disks for RAID10. The first datapoint, for two disks, is 
obviously a simple RAID1. The datapoints for four, six, and eight 
disks are RAID10. We draw a line through all points for ease of 
interpretation—but there is no three, five, or seven disk RAID10 in 
the actual data, for hopefully obvious reasons.

I will assume you have this device:

That looks like what I have.

I will assume your laptop has a Wi-Fi adapter.

It does. {With two BUTS ;}
1. I don't know if it id defective or not.
2. I _actively_ abhor activating *any* WiFi device. [long OT story]

Identify which Debian package(s) are required for your Wi-Fi adapter
(firmware, utilities, whatever). Download the packages and put them on
a USB flash drive.

Boot the Debian installer. Insert the USB flash drive with the Wi-Fi
packages when needed. Install the Wi-Fi packages. Proceed with the
Debian installation.

That would be a "workaround" but not a diagnosis/solution.
I'm working with a multi-boot system to make all environments as
consistent as possible.

My system currently has [from image of DVD1]:
1. Debian 10.0 with minimum default configuration of MATE.
2. Debian 9.13 with MATE with lots of extras.
Neither has any non-free drivers and both connect readily to internet.

Attempting to install Debian 10.8.0 from image of netinst.iso downloaded
after following default link from Debian homepage. The apparent failure
point is on the screen offering automatic configuration using DHCP.

Si usás la "nube" de Chrome, probá con Chromium que NO tiene algunas

Fijate si no tenés algún JAVA corriendo.

However, Linux MD RAID-1 will only ever achieve the read performance
of a single device per thread, so in order to get the read
performance benefit of multiple copies you either need to use
multiple reading threads / processes or else use RAID-10 instead.

ZFS does not suffer from this.

issue with systemd-sysv-generator (Package: systemd-sysv?)

Hi folks,

I am running into a little issue. At every update I am spammed with the 
following 
messages from systemd (some lines as an example):

...and so on.

As this is only on ONE of my identical installed systems, I believe, the files, 
that are 
missing according to this message, are existent in reality.

These messages are a lot, so the chance, that ALL are missing is very small 
IMHO.

Is there a way, to force the regenerating of the "missing" systemd unit file, 
maybe by a 
command. Or must I reinstall all named packages? 

If someone knows more, I would be happy to be enlightened.

Thanks in advance and 

best regards

RAID won't know what's a file or not. It works below the file system
layer, so only concerns itself with blocks. For any particular block, a
RAID1 array has N copies of that block to read from. It makes no sense
to read all of those copies - imagine if you were really paranoid and
had a 10-disk RAID array. Instead, the driver will choose one of the
constituent drives and read the block from that drive. So, if your file
is small, then yes, you won't see any performance benefit. But if your
file is larger than a block, or if you want to access more than one file
at once, then RAID can read the second block from a different drive.
Remember that  the I in RAID stands for Inexpensive. RAID assumes that
the disk is slow, the bus is faster and the applications are impatient  :)

ZFS will work in much the same manner, except when performing a "scrub".
During a scrub, all copies of all blocks are read and compared. If a
block differs across the mirrors, then ZFS has a decision to make: if
there are more identical copies than different copies, ZFS assumes that
the identical copies are good (hence why having a three-way mirror is
recommended). Alternatively, ZFS uses checksums on stored data. If the
block doesn't match the checksum, then ZFS can also recover that data.

Even though the howto states that it covers Debian from versions 8 to

Buster, again, even though scanimage on the system saw the USB scanner
(Epson Perfection 2480 Photo). I then installed Bullseye. The exact
same process and the very same saned.conf file worked immediately.

The client was the same in both cases (Buster).

Is there a tweak that I am missing? Has there been a change that isn't
in Buster but has made it to Bullseye? Any recommendations on debug
steps would be appreciated?


I suspect the tweak you are missing is the permissions on the scanner 
device so that the saned daemon can access it.


I have a network shared scanner on my Debian buster system (With an 
Ubuntu client), and had trouble getting it to work.


Firstly, make sure can you access the scanner locally as root, and can 
scan an image via the command line.


Then you need to set the ACL permissions on your scanner so that the 
username 'scanner' that the saned daemon uses can access the device in 
order to share it over the network. The Debian docs [2] for a scanner 
have the necessary commands to identify your scanner on the USB bus, and 
set the ACL on it.


For my scanner, the command I used was:

setfacl -m g:scanner:rw- /dev/bus/usb/003/002

Your scanner is probably connected to a different USB socket, so for you 
the command will be different.


Then restart the saned daemon, and test connectivity from your client 
machine.


If that works then you need to make the change permanent (otherwise it 
will be lost when you reboot). For that you will need to add a custom 
udev rule so that the kernel will recognise the device as a scanner 
during boot up device enumeration or when you connect it. The notes on 
how to do this came from the Arch Linux wiki. [3]


From the sane-find-scanner output, make a note of the Device id & vendor 
id for your scanner, and then prepare a new udev rule file:


/etc/udev/rules.d/49-sane-missing-scanner.rules

Mine contains the identification for my scanner (HP ScanJet 3300c), 
Yours will be different:


ATTRS{idVendor}=="03f0", ATTRS{idProduct}=="0205", MODE="0664", 
GROUP="scanner", ENV{libsane_matched}="yes"



I hope this solves your problem. I struggled with that exact issue a 
couple of months ago, and I know how frustrating it can be.
