For scheduling, you can tell your computer to do whatever you want, whenever you want, with cron. The learning curve will be pretty gentle with both writing said script and setting up cron. YMMV. I'd recommend backupninja, it lets you schedule a number of backups in an easy way using simple config files.

Yes, each search line contain --no-floppy
Following Thierry's hint I disabled the floppy in BIOS, and this worked
(thanks!) but this disables (of course) the floppy, so it is only good
as far as I don't need the floppy drive (fortunately I rather don't use
it recently).
It seems to be wrong though, it's just like removing car's horn when it
sounds continuously instead of fixing it.
I'll try the GRUB list as Richard has suggested.

icedove 8.0-2 not opening http links in browser
Hi, After my recent update (Debian sid on amd64, icedove 8.0-2, iceweasel 9.0.1-1) everytime I click a link in email it asks me to choose an aplication to open the link with (Launch Application). I'm aware I can choose Iceweasel and tick to always use it, but I think it should (and did) use a global settings (ie x-www-browser, which is actually set to iceweasel). How can I fix it? I checked update-alternatives (for x-www-browser, it's OK), icedove / config: network.protocol-handler.app.http = x-www-browser What do I miss? Is it a bug? Kind regards, Michal -- Michal R.

RAID 1 problem after removing disk
Hi, I have an odd problem with my RAID 1 (/dev/md2) setup on Debian (sid). It used to be a 2 HDD configuration: /dev/sdc1, /dev/sdd1 Recently sdc1 started warning me with SMART errors, so I decided to replace it with a new drive (/dev/sde1). Perhaps foolishly, I used gnome-disk-utility (palimpsest) to do that. I selected the RAID array, added the new drive and it synchronised. While synchronising, the sdc drive failed. After finished syncing, the RAID status displayed that 2 drives are fully synchronised (sdd1, sde1), one failed (sdc1) and the array is degraded. I removed the failed disk from the array. Next day after I started my PC i was surprised - the RAID did not start, and was still marked as degraded. I did few checks and it seems that mdadm 'thinks' there should be 3 drives... I can run mdadm --assemble and it starts the array (but as degraded). How can I get rid of the removed drive? I tried mdadm /dev/md2 --remove failed mdadm /dev/md2 --remove detached they do nothing mdadm --zero-superblock /dev/sdc1 says it couldn't open /dev/sdc1 for write (well, it could not as the disk has died) === Result from mdadm --detail /dev/md2: Version : 0.90 Creation Time : Wed Jun 17 21:11:25 2009 Raid Level : raid1 Array Size : 966799616 (922.01 GiB 990.00 GB) Used Dev Size : 966799616 (922.01 GiB 990.00 GB) Raid Devices : 3 Total Devices : 2 Preferred Minor : 2 Persistence : Superblock is persistent Update Time : Sun Aug 14 22:23:03 2011 State : clean, degraded Active Devices : 2 Working Devices : 2 Failed Devices : 0 Spare Devices : 0 UUID : 40b55130:8f1de1e6:9d4deba6:47ca997f Events : 0.50097 Number Major Minor RaidDevice State 0 000 removed 1 8 491 active sync /dev/sdd1 2 8 652 active sync /dev/sde1 === cat /proc/mdstat Personalities : [linear] [raid0] [raid1] [raid10] [raid6] [raid5] [raid4] [multipath] [faulty] md2 : active (auto-read-only) raid1 sdd1[1] sde1[2] 966799616 blocks [3/2] [_UU] md1 : active raid1 sda2[0] sdb2[1] 966799616 blocks [2/2] [UU] md0 : active raid1 sda1[0] sdb1[1] 497856 blocks [2/2] [UU] unused devices: none === from /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf: # definitions of existing MD arrays ARRAY /dev/md0 level=raid1 num-devices=2 UUID=54f1d14e:91ed3696:c3213124:8831be97 ARRAY /dev/md1 level=raid1 num-devices=2 UUID=5d97a1e5:26d9d2ed:2a031ed3:45563b24 ARRAY /dev/md2 level=raid1 num-devices=2 UUID=40b55130:8f1de1e6:9d4deba6:47ca997f How can I get rid of the removed drive from RAID and get it fixed?

Wine + Diablo II LOD + 3D on nvidia = white screen?
I don't play games much, but sometimes it'd be nice to be able to. I have a problem with Diablo II Lord of Destruction (expansion pack) game. It works fine in DirectDraw 2D mode but is not so 'shiny', it looks much better in Direct3D. When I set it up to run in 3D HAL mode it starts OK, but then after intro the whole screen goes white. When it's run in window I can quit but if it's full screen mode nautilus hangs and my desktop is all blank - have to manually delete metacity saved session files. Moreover, in windowed run it seems to be changing the whole colour palette - all windows colours are very pale. I use Debian Sid on AMD64, nvidia drivers (proprietary - to get 3D working), Gnome. I looked at winehq, but the game is described as working. Any hints? Not sure if it helps, but on exit it returns the following errors (cut to the relevant part I think): === fixme:win:EnumDisplayDevicesW ((null),0,0x817784,0x), stub! fixme:d3d:IWineD3DDeviceImpl_GetAvailableTextureMem (0x14b658) : stub, simulating 64MB for now, returning 64MB left fixme:ddraw:IDirectDrawImpl_SetCooperativeLevel (0x14a0f8)-(0x30024,0411) fixme:x11drv:X11DRV_desktop_SetCurrentMode Cannot change screen BPP from 32 to 16 fixme:ddraw:IDirectDrawImpl_SetCooperativeLevel (0x14a0f8)-(0x30024,0411) fixme:x11drv:X11DRV_desktop_SetCurrentMode Cannot change screen BPP from 32 to 16 err:ddraw:IDirectDrawSurfaceImpl_Flip Can't find a flip target err:ddraw:IDirectDrawSurfaceImpl_Flip Can't find a flip target fixme:ddraw:IDirectDrawImpl_SetCooperativeLevel (0x14a0f8)-(0x30024,0411) fixme:x11drv:X11DRV_desktop_SetCurrentMode Cannot change screen BPP from 32 to 16 fixme:ddraw:IDirectDrawImpl_SetCooperativeLevel (0x14a0f8)-((nil),0008) === Kind regards, Michal R.

I love all you poor saps running a timezone a few hours ahead of mine ;-) Saved me from a disastrous upgrade on more than one occaision. *turning red with shame* I use apt-listbugs. However I did the previous upgrade a couple of weeks ago and while upgrading this time I missed that bug in the list - at least I did not notice it. It's a home PC so it's just an inconvenience.

The sound system on the board is sufficient for me and works with ALSA, network worked without problems - actually I installed the system over the Internet.

rozdzielczosci w X-ach, uruchamianie na dzien dobry skryptu
witam, mam zagwozdkę. Otóż mam kartę VooDoo 3 3000 TV-out, Debian unstable, kernel 2.4.23, XWindow 4.3.0, wmaker. Podłączyłem kartę do telewizora, posiłkując się googlem udało mi się to uruchomić: - zainstalowałem lm-sensors, przekompilowałem i uruchomiłem wymagane moduły, - napisałem króciutki skrypt, który ustala parametry wyjścia tv: echo 0 [sciezka]/ntsc echo 1 [sciezka]/svideo echo 800 600 [sciezka]/res cat [sciezka]/colorbars /dev/null - po uruchomieniu w/w skryptu (z uprawnieniami roota), ustawiam z poziomu konsoli w pliku /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 rozdzielczości: [...] SubSection Display Depth 16 Modes 800x600 800x600PAL #800x600PAL jest wyżej zdefiniowane, z parametrami TV EndSubSection [...] i wykonuję /etc/init.d/xdm restart - loguję się, wciskam Ctrl-Alt-GrPlus (aby przełączyć się na parametry TV) - uruchamiam mplayera. fajnie, wszystko działa. Ale: a) wolałbym, aby mój skrypt sam startował podczas startu systemu. Zrobiłem to w ten sposób, że wrzuciłem go do katalogu /etc/init.d a do /etc/rc3.d dałem do niego symlinka S99tv.sh prawie działa. Tzn, jak nie wykonam cat [sciezka]/colorbars to nie mam obrazu na TV. Tak więc tą linijkę dodałem do .bashrc Wydaje mi się, że można zrobić to lepiej, ale nie wiem jak b) _ważniejsze_ denerwuje mnie konieczność edycji pliku XF86Config-4 i restartu x-ów za każdym razem, gdy chcę obejrzeć film. Normalnie pracuję w rozdzielczości 1024x768. Ale gdy w konfiguracji wpiszę: Modes 1024x768 800x600PAL czy nawet Modes 1024x768 800x600 800x600PAL to w rozdzielczościach 800x600 automatycznie tworzony jest ekran wirtualny o rozmiarach 1024x768, i niestety w mplayerze na tv leci obraz 1024x768, i tak naprawdę nie mam obrazu na tv.
