Subject: mounting extern FREECOM HD in squeeze
To: debian-user debian-user@lists.debian.org


Dear All!

I am having problems getting a stable mount of an extern FREECOM HD on
debian squeeze.

Sometimes it mounts and by running
# blkid -o list -c /dev/null

get

/dev/sdb1  vfatFREECOM HDD /media/FREECOM HDD 13EC-4051

but it often umounts while copying files and can not mount it again.  Tried
placing the line in fstab

UUID=13EC-4051  /media/Ext-HD vfat defaults,auto,exec,users,rw 0 0

but get

mount: special device UUID=13EC-4051 does not exist

also /dev/sdb1 is gone.

Any missing mod that I should look for?

Any ideas are welcome.

Thank you in advance,
Filipe

booting in squeeze not automatic

2012-02-28 Thread Filipe Freire
Dear All

I recently installed debian squeeze on a new 64-bit pc.

All seemed fine except that booting was not processing automatically.
Always had to manually select the device from the BIOS - probably a bug.  I
have a single partition.  After checking the partition with fdisk verified
that that the boot flag was off.  I turned it on with action 'a' but
afterwards I can not get the system to boot.   I have done this before but
this time only made things worse,   It still does not boot automatically
and on top of that it holds on GRUB.

Suggestion on how to proceed are very welcome.  Anyone had a similar
problem?

Best,
Filipe


Re: squeeze audio cd and automount

2011-01-05 Thread Filipe Freire
Hi,

I looked at the bug report and tried (my drive is ATAPI)

sound-juicer -d /dev/sr0

but it tells me I have no permission.  I tried again with sudo and
it works.  When I press play, it plays but gives the message:

Cannot connect to server socket err = No such file or directory
Cannot connect to server socket
jack server is not running or cannot be started

ls -l gives

brw--- 1 root root 11, 0 Jan  2 22:00 /dev/sr0

so I made rw for everyone but still cannot start it but now I get the
HAL message mentioned in the bug report.

With totem I still can not get sound and get the message about not
being able to start jack.

I checked my daemons and there is no jackd in /etc/init.d though
jackd is installed (but labelled as virtual package).

I googled a few other similar complains but no clear solution.

THere are other jackd packages which might help.  Any feedback on this?

Cheers,
Filipe

 In my case, hal daemon is running so I tried to restarting the service

 At least in lenny, although CD-Audio is not mounted as a normal data CD
 Sound Juicer can play it fine. In Squeezy, the CD-Audio is not even
 detected, but maybe you can try to access the media using another program
 as the bug reporter suggests :-?

 As per the USB flash drive, I dunno. What do you get when you connect a
 USB flash/disk drive and run dmesg|tail -50?

 Uh? That is different from my error :-?

 Why should sound-juicer need jack server at all?


it might need it to find the device.  If so, that might also explain why no
client is starting automatically when we insert a cd.



  ls -l gives
 
  brw--- 1 root root 11, 0 Jan  2 22:00 /dev/sr0

 Hum... mine looks different:

 t...@debian:~$ ls -l /dev/sr0
 brw-rw+ 1 root cdrom 11, 0 ene  5 20:57 /dev/sr0

  so I made rw for everyone but still cannot start it but now I get the
  HAL message mentioned in the bug report.

 Yep, and I still get the same message.

  With totem I still can not get sound and get the message about not being
  able to start jack.

 Me neither, probably due to this other bug:

 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=574680

 Try to run totem from command line totem cdda://dev/sr0 and totem will
 complain about it cannot handle cdda uri.


I tried totem cdda://dev/sr0 and I get a bizarre message:

The playback of this movie requires a Audio CD source plugin which is not
installed.

there are no obvious Audio CD plugins to add in.  This smells bug to me.


  I checked my daemons and there is no jackd in /etc/init.d though jackd
  is installed (but labelled as virtual package).
 
  I googled a few other similar complains but no clear solution.

 I dunno if the jack server message is related to the problem, BTW, I only
 have this library installed:

 t...@debian:~$ dpkg -l | grep jack
 ii  libjack0 1:0.118 +svn3796-7
JACK Audio Connection Kit (libraries)

lenny to squeeze upgrade - printer not working

2010-12-31 Thread Filipe Freire
Hi

just upgraded from lenny to squeeze and the printer is not working.  I
manage it via http://localhost:631

jobs are sent and lpq says that they are printing but in cups the printer
status is Processing - Printer is offline.

needless to say eveything was working fine before the upgrade.  Tried
restarting cups and lpd but did not make a difference.  The  printer is a HP
Deskjet 6500.

Any suggestions, shared experiences are welcome.

Hi David,

did you find a solution for the problem with the arrow keys?  I just 
upgrade from lenny to squeeze and I am having exactly the same problem 
you reported in the debian users list.

lenny to squeeze - key arrows not all working

2010-12-31 Thread Filipe Freire
Hi debians,

near the end of having everything working after my upgrade to squeeze.  One
last issue.

My keyboard, non usb, got its standard arrow key shortcuts disabled after
upgrade.  Tested with a usb keyboard and there everything works fine but
that is not my keyboard so still need to solve this.
Tried most options with gnome keyboard shortcuts and gconf-editor.  Is this
now a limitation form having a non usb keyboard?

Best,
Filipe


Re: lenny to squeeze - key arrows not all working

2010-12-31 Thread Filipe Freire
Hi Peter,

mouse keys is disable.  Three of the arrow keys on the numbers keypad to the
right of the keyboard are working.  The plain four arrows keys are
completely off.  sigh...

But you are right, if I enable mouse keys even those that worked before stop
working.

Best
Filipe

 System - Preferences - Keyboard - Mouse Keys is disabled ?
 If the Mouse keys are enabled, the numberblock on the keyboard behaves
 strange (imo)...maybe this is also affecting the arrowkeys ?

lenny auto upgrade

2010-12-29 Thread Filipe Freire
Hi,

I am running lenny, kernel 2.6.26-2, on a desktop.  Yesterday I did a update
of new packages and many things do not work afterwards. I started with an
installation of new packages (as I often do with new updates).  As things
were not working well afterwards I run aptitude dist-upgrade.  At the end I
lost the network connection.

Lost internet connection, mounting usb, etc.  The usb has been fixed by
providing the UUID of the device instead of the name but I still can not get
my network connection to work.

My packages are now a mixture of lenny and squeeze.  I was not aware of the
new squeeze release.  I locked at possible solutions to get the networking
running but nothing works, including the different squeeze intructions in
/etc/network/interfaces but to no avail.

Did anyone had a similar problem?  Suggestions are very welcome.

Thanks in advance,
Filipe
