Re: Mouse movement weirdness with latest X packages
FYI: I just upgraged to the rev 3.3.2.2-3 X11 packages and the mouse movement sluggishness and jerkiness seems to have gone away, and it seems that the random button pressing behavior has disappeared. I'm guessing this is what affected me, although I'm using xserver-s3, not the SVGA server (from /usr/doc/xbase/changelog.Debian.gz): * programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/common_hw/xf86_PCI.c: reversed patch from XFree86, was causing problems for many users of SVGA X server (Fixes: #24040) * programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/etc/scanpci.c: reversed patch from XFree86, was causing problems for many users of SVGA X server However, there is still one problem that persists, that has happened to me twice in the last 24 hours. In both cases I had been using less or zless in an xterm window, and when I attempted to move the cursor away from the xterm window, the cursor did move outside the window, but it remained a text cursor, the window did not lose focus, I could not move beyond the edges of my screen into other areas of my virtual desktop, and no other window manager functions would work outside the xterm window (i.e. I couldn't pop a menu or double-click to pop up an icon). All text operations continued to work inside the xterm window however. In both cases I was able to exit this mode by terminating (^d) the xterm. This behavior is random--I have tried to reproduce it several times but so far I haven't been successful. Anyone else see this type of behavior? --ken On Mon, Jul 20, 1998 at 11:51:43PM -0500, Ken Lauffenburger wrote: Hello, I just recently updated the X11 packages on my Hamm system from rev 3.3.2.1-1 to 3.3.2.2-1 and then to 3.3.2.2-2.

Mouse movement weirdness with latest X packages
Hello, I just recently updated the X11 packages on my Hamm system from rev 3.3.2.1-1 to 3.3.2.2-1 and then to 3.3.2.2-2. Ever since, simple X-Y mouse movements cause the window manager to act as if the mouse buttons are being randomly pressed. This of course causes all sorts of annoying things to happen, like menus popping up randomly, windows losing focus, and commands getting unintentionally executed. Also cursor movement is occasionally sluggish or jerky, as if some mouse events are lost, or maybe as if the system is under a momentary heavy load, although the xsysinfo meter shows no spike in activity. This behavior happens with both the 3.3.2.2-1 and 3.3.2.2-2 revisions. I had none of these problems with previous revisions. I use FVWM2 and xserver-s3. None of my X configuration files were changed during the upgrades except the /etc/X11/Xresources file, which was changed by the installation script. Basically these changes have to do with changes to the Delete, Home, and End key translations, and setting the TERM environment variable to xterm-debian instead of xterm. I tried using my previous Xresources file, but the mouse problems have not gone away. Has anyone else seen this kind of behavior? I scanned the change log for the xbase and xserver-s3 packages, and checked the bug report logs, but I was unable to find any similar description of this problem. Any suggestions or clues would be quite appreciated. Also, on a related note, what is the purpose of changing the TERM variable to xterm-debian ? I'm planning on changing it back on my system unless there is some benefit that I haven't discovered yet. The problem I have is when I establish an ssh session to my Sun machine at work, it doesn't understand xterm-debian and I have to set the TERM variable to xterm to get any useful work done. Thanks. --ken P.S. I just noticed that my nice mutt colors go away when I set TERM back to xterm :-( __ Ken Lauffenburger / /__ __ [EMAIL PROTECTED] / / D e b i a n G N U \ \/ / / / __ __ __ \ / / / / / / _ \ / / / / / \ ...Look out Bill, / /___ / / / / ) // (_/ / / /\ \ here comes...

Unable to open an initial console.
Hello, I somehow messed up one of my long-stable hamm systems during an upgrade. On boot-up, even a single-user boot, the boot process fails with the message in the subject line above. What may have caused this is that I ran out of space on my /usr partition during the upgrade. Things have been hosed since I rebooted shortly after that. I can boot up the rescue disk and mount my file systems, but I'm not sure what to look for. I'm afraid that one or more packages are in a half- installed state. What does the above message mean, and any ideas on how to proceed without losing too much of the contents of my disks and invested configuration time?

exmh can't display messages with indexes 9999 ?
Hello, This seems to be an exmh problem, although maybe it is an nmh issue. I'm running nmh version 0.22 and exmh version 2.0.2 on a Debian hamm system. Message indexes in my inbox have grown to beyond 13000 messages. But exmh can't display any message with index greater than (five digits). The first line of these messages show up in the Table of Contents, but nothing appears in the Message Display window. The message index for these messages shows up as three digits pre-pended by a '?', e.g. '?368'. If I click on a message with index less than 1 (no '?'), then the message appears in the Message Display window. nmh seems to be able to handle the five digit indexes OK. I can do 'show +inbox 13520' for instance, and read the message. So it seems like exmh can't handle message indexes greater than four digits? Or maybe there is a configuration for this? This all seems to beg the question: Does nmh allow message indexes ever to wrap-around at a certain limit or get recycled? BTW, I have been using mutt ever since I first ran into this problem. It doesn't have this problem because it uses an indirect index to refer to messages. Thanks for any insight anyone might be able to provide. --ken P.S.

TurboTax on wine?
Hello, Has anyone had any success running TurboTax on wine? I have wine_0.0.980104-2 installed on my hamm system. I was able to use it to install TurboTax. Installation seemed to go smooth and when I start it up under wine, it almost looks ready to run, but not quite. All the menus look fine, but the button graphics, like the 'next' button, and the 'help' button, are kind of scrambled. Also the link text is the wrong size. I tried converting the TrueType fonts installed by the TurboTax app (*.ttf files) to *.pcf.gz files using the freetype package and putting them in my /usr/lib/X11/fonts directory, but so far that hasn't worked. It sure would be cool to do my taxes this year without having to use windoze. --ken __ Ken Lauffenburger / /__ __ [EMAIL PROTECTED] / / D e b i a n G N U \ \/ / / / __ __ __ \ / / / / / / _ \ / / / / / \ ...Look out Bill, / /___ / / / / ) // (_/ / / /\ \ here comes...

Re: diald / ppp routing problems on hamm system [SOLVED]
This did the trick. Thanks Phil! This disrupted my operations here for a few days, and seems like it could impact other people upgrading to hamm from bo. So should I file a bug report on this, and if so how do I do it? --ken I very recently upgraded my home system from bo to hamm. As soon as I installed the netbase package, diald stopped working. The PPP link would connect, but the PPP link no longer was selected as the default route. However, I could establish the link using the 'pon' command. (I was using a fairly old revision of PPP, maybe ppp_2.2.0f-23.) On your problem: There were some problems reported with the /etc/nsswitch.conf. The networks line says files dns which means that when resolving a network address, libc will try first /etc/networks, then ask on DNS. However route tries to resolve the net diald passes to it and blocks in there (the DNS server cannot be contacted because there's no route to it, and the route cannot be established because the net has to be resolved). Try removing the dns entry from the networks line of /etc/nsswitch.conf. Anyways, this is problematic to have this networks line with dns, and a future version of base-files is supposed to fix this.

Hello, I recently upgraded to libc6 and bash 2.01-5 using the libc6 Mini-HOWTO (thanks Scott, I had no problems doing the upgrade). I understand the upgraded version of bash is supposed to fix problems with Netscape helpers, and one of the things I thought the upgrade would do for me is fix a problem I've been having using RealAudio. It seems I saw something related to this on the list a while back, but I didn't save it. When I click on a RealAudio file on a website, I get a little window containing something like: +--+ | Netscape: subprocess diagnostics (stdout/stderr) | +--+ | | | sh: raplayer/tmp/M03456D8F28071051.ram: No such file or directory | | | | +--+ | | | OK | | | +--+ | | | +--+ I tried creating a raplayer/tmp directory in my $HOME directory, but no cigar. I run a 486 so I'm stuck with the 3.0 version of RealAudio, and I know I could upgrade Netscape but version 3.01 works fine for me in all other respects so I don't feel I need to. Any thoughts or ideas on the problem would be appreciated. Thanks. --ken BTW, major kudos to the Debian developers for such a wonderful product! -- __ Ken Lauffenburger / /__ __ [EMAIL PROTECTED] / / D e b i a n G N U \ \/ / / / __ __ __ \ / / / / / / _ \ / / / / / \ ...Look out Bill, / /___ / / / / ) // (_/ / / /\ \ here comes...

exim / mh problems
Hello, I have been running sendmail on my machine at home for a long time with few problems. I use mh and exmh, and sometimes elm. When I recently installed Debian on a machine at work I decided to try exim instead of sendmail. I liked it so I replaced sendmail with exim on my machine at home. Now I am having some problems on my home machine. I can send mail fine using elm, but when I try to send a message using mh, I get the following: leisure:~ send Use /home/ken/Mail/drafts/2? y post: problem initializing server; [BHST] no servers available send: message not delivered to anyone The exim process is running in daemon mode; I can see it using ps. Another problem is with incoming mail. I use fetchmail to retrieve mail from my Debian machine (flounder) at work which runs qpopper. I believe flounder is configured properly because this worked great when sendmail was installed at home. This is what I get when I try to fetch mail: leisure:~ fetchmail -v fetchmail: 3.8.0 querying flounder.efficient.com (protocol POP3) at Fri Oct 17 08:13:53 1997 fetchmail: POP3 +OK QPOP (version 2.2) at flounder.efficient.com starting.

How to create a crontab per user?
Hello, I'm having trouble understanding how to create a crontab on a per-user basis. I have tried the standard crontab -e ... this allows me to think I am editing a personal crontab, but then when I save and quit, I get the following: wrote /tmp/crontab.a28090, 2 lines, 3 chars crontab: /usr/bin/vi exited with status 1 ... and I check and no crontab was actually created. The docs for cron3.0pl1-38 indicate that either one or both of the files /var/spool/cron/deny or /var/spool/cron/allow must be present for accounts other than root to be permitted a private crontab. So I set up both files: flounder:~ ls -l /var/spool/cron total 2 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root5 Oct 9 10:46 allow drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 1024 Jan 18 1997 crontabs -rw-r--r-- 1 root root0 Oct 9 10:43 deny The 'allow' file contains my user name, and the 'deny' file is empty. This doesn't seem to work either. I tried stopping and restarting the cron daemon; this also doesn't work (haven't tried rebooting yet, but it seems that shouldn't be necessary). Can anyone clue me in to the magic configuration that is necessary here? Thanks. --ken __ Ken Lauffenburger / /__ __ [EMAIL PROTECTED] / / D e b i a n G N U \ \/ / / / __ __ __ \ / / / / / / _ \ / / / / / \ ...Look out Bill, / /___ / / / / ) // (_/ / / /\ \ here comes...

Re: How to create a crontab per user?
Hello, Both of the suggestions listed below worked. Thanks Manoj and Brandon. I changed my EDITOR setting to xedit and that worked. I normally use elvis as my editor of choice, and this is the first time I believe that I have had a problem with it exiting with an error code. Should I consider this a fault with crontab or elvis? Whats the best way to track this down? I'll be happy to do some debugging if I can get a pointer.

Re: File impossible to delete
I have the same problem. I have been running Debian 1.3.0 on a 2.0.30 kernel since April; before that I was running Slackware and this file has probably been around since then. Last fall when it was a Slackware system I tried running some 2.1.x kernels for a short time, probably 2.1.1x or 2.1.2x vintage, but not 2.1.4x. I have tried all the recent suggestions (except debugfs), and like Peter, none of them have worked. My undeletable file is: crw-rw-rw- 1 65535tty4, 65 Jul 17 1994 ttyS1 (Note the interesting owner name.)

I believe the package became broken because I ran out of space on my root partition while installing several packages, gzip among them. Since this is a secondary system with a small drive, I decided to jetison all the man, info (GNU info, not dpkg), and doc files to free up space. Maybe this is what dpkg is complaining about now. Or maybe some dpkg info files were not able to be updated when the partition was full. The system runs fine now . In fact, it seems that the updated gzip package that dpkg thinks is broken is actually installed and executable. Two other packages in this same state are ldso and tar. I'm not too worried about gzip and tar--I can just ftp those executables from my other system and forget about dpkg--but everything depends on ldso, and I can't get dpkg to install most other packages.
