Wireless Hard Lock on a Dell XPS 15in (releasable only during waking up from suspend)
Hi, I have installed Jessie on a Dell XPS 9530 (late 2013) and am encountering problems (that are shared by others on the web) using the wireless card: it appears hard locked upon boot under all tested circumstances and no mocking with blacklisting wmi, dell-laptop, or other googled remedies have helped. The only thing so far that gets the wireless up and running is suspending the machine and hitting the FN-PrtScreen combination DURING wake-up, as described here: http://tinyurl.com/lsp3wyx I'm at a loss and would appreciate any advise on how to proceed or what to try.

jessie and unpriviledged lxc containers
Hello, I'm playing with unpriviledged lxc containers according to http://tinyurl.com/kvzxlvj on jessie.

The second one is trivial: create a file /etc/sysctl.d/10-unpriv-lxc with the following contents: kernel.unprivileged_userns_clone = 1 Then on boot this setting will be automatically applied. If you want to activate clone_children for the cgroup automatically at boot, you kind-of need to do that manually. I'm going to assume you're using systemd as init system on the host (because it's the default and you didn't mention anything else [1]). The easiest way is to simply create a file /etc/systemd/system/setup-clone-children.service: [Unit] Description=Setup cpuset cgroup clone_children for LXC DefaultDependencies=no Conflicts=shutdown.target Before=sysinit.target shutdown.target [Service] Type=oneshot ExecStart=/bin/sh -c echo 1 /sys/fs/cgroup/cpuset/cgroup.clone_children StandardOutput=null RemainAfterExit=yes [Install] WantedBy=sysinit.target (the ExecStart= is one line, my mail client just likes to wrap) Then you can just do systemctl enable setup-clone-children.service and the next time you reboot, the setting will be applied. Hope that helps. Many thanks. Implemented and awaiting testing. Joh -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

nullmailer, cron email email provider requiring appropriate From field

That account requires that From in the header matches the account email. Cron on my system insists to send email (as e.g. produced by a logcheck cron job) using From as derived from the user the executed script runs under (logcheck, in this case) and the provider accordingly refuses the email. Googling leeds to the conclusion, that while cron on debian (stable) is accepting MAILTO in crontab, it doesn't accept MAILFROM, which other distributions (Centos?) seem to have ...

Re: How to change installer image?
Hello, Outstanding! Thank you, both Steve and Thomas! Based on Steve's hint I had it mostly right, but the isobybrid business was beyond my capabilities (and would have come to bite me once actually in front of the machine to be installed). I'll report back once I got a chance to try the new image ... Joh Thomas Schmitt wrote: Hi, Steve McIntyre wrote: You'll also need to use xorriso rather than genisoimage. Thank you for flying xorriso. :) If you look in the file .disk/mkisofs on the original CD, you'll see the exact command that was used to make the original image, .disk/mkisofs is one of my favorites. So i can see what Steve does with my program. One needs some background knowledge, though, to derive the options for a new run: The option -isohybrid-mbr, which is essential for BIOS USB stick, needs an MBR input file, which has to stem from the same SYSLINUX version as isolinux/isolinux.bin in the ISO: -isohybrid-mbr syslinux/usr/lib/syslinux/isohdpfx.bin The first 512 bytes of the original isohybrid ISO image are a harmlessly modified copy of the original input file. So one may retrieve the new isohybrid MBR template by: dd if=debian-7.8.0-i386-CD-1.iso bs=512 count=1 of=/tmp/isohdpfx.bin and use it in the xorriso run as -isohybrid-mbr /tmp/isohdpfx.bin Further one may leave out the Jigdo producing options: -checksum_algorithm_iso md5,sha1,sha256,sha512 ... -jigdo-jigdo /org/cdbuilder.debian.org/dst/deb-cd/out/2amd64/debian-7.7.0-amd64- NETINST-1.jigdo -jigdo-template /org/cdbuilder.debian.org/dst/deb-cd/out/2amd64/debian-7.7.0-amd64- NETINST-1.template -jigdo-map Debian=/org/cdbuilder.debian.org/src/ftp/debian/ -jigdo-exclude boot1 -md5-list /org/cdbuilder.debian.org/src/deb-cd/tmp/2amd64/wheezy/md5-check -jigdo-min-file-size 1024 -jigdo-exclude 'README*' -jigdo-exclude /doc/ -jigdo-exclude /md5sum.txt -jigdo-exclude /.disk/ -jigdo-exclude /pics/ -jigdo-exclude 'Release*' -jigdo-exclude 'Packages*' -jigdo-exclude 'Sources*' ...

Elegant solution for network-dependent cifs/smb mounting?
Hi, I am looking for a debian- (and optimally kde-) compatible solution that would allow me to mount cifs/smb network drives ONLY if on the network where they are expected to exist. I there was a solution that would upon attempted access to adrive a) check whether on the right network b) check whether the corresponding server is up c) if not b) was able to WakeOnLan the server - and wait for/monitor its sucessful boot d) mount the drive That would be the perfect solution ...

libfprint: configure pam to only (and exclusively) use for xscreensaver

Since this is supposed to be the firewall for my home network I'm trying to get dhcpd to run - which I have sucessfully done in the past - but it's not working for me this time. Originally I thought that the fact that I wanted the serve to listen on an interface that is a USB/ethernet adapter was the problem, but I can't make it work using the NIC on the motherboard either ...

2.6.1 and ALSA trouble (very little volume)
Hello, I compiled myself a 2.6.1 kernel and have problems with ALSA. Everything should be statically compiled into the kernel (ali5451 is what I need for my Fujitsu Lifebook). I based my configurations on my 2.4 kernel which used to run ALSA via modules. Seems to work, BUT using mpg123 or alsa-xmms I get very little volume out of the speakers - its barely hearable. Alsamixer was used to max out 'Master' and 'PCM' - so that shouldn't be it. Please find my configurations below.

CUPS update = lpr trouble from mozilla/galeon
Hello, Having returned to my keyboard after the Holiday break, I updated my testing/unstable system to CUPSYS 1.1.20candidate6-6. Following that printing did no longer work - 'lpr -Plj2200' in the galeon printer field resulted in a printed message stating that The Postscript interpreter in [my] printer is 2014.116 and that This printout requires at least version 2015 or greater. The message also gives a workaround: 'gs -q -sDEVICE=pswrite -SOutputFile=- -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -dMozConvertedToLevel2=true - | lpr -Plj2200' in the printer field is supposed to fix the problem. BUT if I use that I get a printout where aside from punctuation marks all characters are replaced by an empty rectangle. Printing the web page in question to a file first doesn't make a difference - gv shows the treaded rectangles. Please let me know if you have any insight into what I'm doing wrong.

Xfree86 4.3 confusion
Hello, A couple of days ago I installed woody with the bf2.4 kernel on my new fujitsu lifebook. I went ahead and apt-get dist-upgraded to 'testing'. At some point I then installed xfree86 to run my beloved ion wm. I must have been able to pull 4.3, since the lifebook needs the 'radeon' driver which is only in 4.3 and was present. The problem however arose when I - for reasons of general idiocy - wanted to do a fresh install yesterday: only xfree86 4.2.x was available! I can't reconstruct my original apt sources exactly, but querying the on line package database doesn't give me any 4.3 what so ever. Did 4.3 get recently pulled from the distribution? Why? Where can I get the packages? Thanks, Joh pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature
