Automatic upgrades stalls on the last kernel release
I seem to have a problem with automatic updates on my system. The AU system has been unable to function normally for some time and I now have something like 61 updates waiting in the queue.

Upgrading to an SSD
I like to try out one of the newish Solid State drives. What has prompted this is that my machine has started to complain about low disk space on /root. Using disk analyser I can see there is loads of free disk space. This is a 250GB drive but only 22GB is actually being used. Suggesting to me that I could easily shoehorn my whole operating system (including home partition ) into one of the cheapish 64GB ss drives. I'd like to convert my existing hard drive to hold media from the TTV reciever and perhaps reinstall MythTV absent for a year or so. Here is my concern. When I installed this system I elected to encrypt the drive and use lvm. 1. I'd like to avoid 'root' full errors in future. 2. Assuming I have my SSD installed and formatted, what would be the best, simplest and most trouble free process to move everything from my existing hard drive to the new SSD? ___ People of the same trade seldom meet together, even for merriment and diversion, but the conversation ends in a conspiracy against the public -- Adam Smith -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Is your root partition on the LVM? I think it is, running LVM and selecting logical view it looks as if root is /dev/kingston/root. In the physical view root is described as linear mapping 83 extents. If not, you might want to consider making a new LV (perhaps shrinking one of your other partitions and reclaiming some of that 200GB free space) for root. To address my immediate problem of low disk space on root and given that root does appear to be on the lvm, I could do that now? For example, shrink /home and reallocate the freed space to /root? You could then boot into a LiveCD, rsync from the old root partition to the new partition and then update bootloader, fstab etc. Et Voila, you're booting from root on LVM. Next time root gets full, add a few extents to it. 2. Assuming I have my SSD installed and formatted, what would be the best, simplest and most trouble free process to move everything from my existing hard drive to the new SSD? You might be able to do this online by creating a PV on the SSD, add it to your VG and then use pvmove to migrate LVs between the disks. Would it be a problem if the new SSD is much smaller than the original HD? Thanks ___ News is what somebody somewhere wants to suppress; all the rest is just advertising.

SNIP Latest version of Roaring Penguin DLink DSL-300 modem 2.4.18 kernel From the DLINK site on the DSL-300 The D-Link DSL-300 is an external ADSL modem that provides a single 10Mbps Ethernet port. With a windows based configuration tool, the DSL-300 allows users to easily modify settings to connect via G.lite or G.dmt ADSL depending on their DSL provider. The DSL-300 is capable of providing high speed Internet access and/or remote connection to an office LAN. Firstly, I don't think you can configure your modem using the asdl utilities provided by linux. I think since this is an ethernet modem, it needs to be configured across the ethernet. The thing that concerns me is that the description says windows based configuration tool. Does the manual tell you what ip addresses the modem defaults to on your internal lan? Probably you should set your PC ethernet card to DCHP? If you know the ip address of the modem on your internal network, you might be able to telnet into it from your pc and configure if through the telnet interface. Try telnet ipaddress of DSL-300 Actually in the on line manual it tells you that the configuration password is 'Admin', which seems to be accessable through the serial port using hyperterm! Once you have it linked up through the serial port it will tell you the ip address of the modem, through the serial configuration port. Suggest you read the manual some more.

Re: usb-scanner detected, but nothing about usb in /dev
Have you got your scanner working yet? I have just managed to get my HP scanner working within the last hour. The only serious thing I needed to do was edit two files in /etc/sane.d The first was dll.conf where I rem'd out all the entries except net and hp the second was hp.conf where I made a minor change for it to read /dev/usb/scanner0 option connect-device Checking first that there was a scanner0 in /dev/usb, which there was. That was it - then xscanimage worked a treat. Sane-find-scanner gave similar errors to those you experienced.

Re: Simple xawtv question ...
NTSC (Never the same colour twice :-o ) is the method of encoding the video signal. PAL, phase alternate line is (I think) a mainly UK standard, and SECAM is the French standard. Those countries which have been unfortunate to fall under the influence of one or other of the above countries would probably share the same broadcasting technical standard.

Re: console messages flit by too fast

You will answer: that is the fault of whatever package author for also not logging his message to syslog. But that isn't helping me: what package? the name went by too fast. Isn't there something that I can turn on to capture all these, or are we too early in the startup?

Re: No ip-masquerade after upgrade 2.2.19 to 2.4.20
On 2002.12.22 15:21 Russ Cook wrote: I have a home network of 5 machines running Linux (for me) and Windows (for wife and son). I have a masquerading gateway machine for internet access. I update this machine rarely, as problems encountered affect the whole family. I recently took the plunge and upgraded the kernel on that machine from 2.2.19 to 2.4.20. Now, it no longer provides internet access for the lan. From the gateway's console, I can access the internet, so ppp is working. The machine is accessible from the other computers, so the eth0 funtions are working. Can anyone help me troubleshoot this problem? In a rare moment of foresight, I kept the previous kernel and labeled it 'safe' in lilo.conf, so I can still use that kernel, and currently am. Thanks much, Russ One of the things that changed between 2.2 and 2.4 kernels was IP chains transmogrified into IPtables. Perhaps your natting scripts no longer work with the 2.4 kernel? You might need to go to the netfilter site (http://www.iptables.org/) to get the latest version of IPtables. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

In a bind about named and network printing.
I have been playing with my local networks 'named' and finally got it working more or less the way I think it should. Evidence for this is that I can ping local machine name and it returns the fully qualified machine name plus the ping responces. This works on all machines except the server 'named' is actually running on. Where the ping goes off along the cable modem never to resolve (my network is strictly a local affair). So far so good. What is really causing me to scratch my head is that suddenly ( at the same time ) the printer located on my server (the same server which runs named) no longer works for print jobs across the network. The print jobs are all queued on my debian machine but never get printed on my redhat server. I am pretty sure it is related to my tinkerings but just can't see where the problem lies. Any suggestions? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The 127.0.0.1 will cause your server to query itself first, then, if
necessary go to your ISP nameservers.
Thanks to all three of you (Stephen, Alan and Gary), this reply seemed
the easiest to try and it looks like it worked. After some addional
spice thrown in by my dsl modem. Leastwise everything seems to be
functioning normally now. My resolve file looks similar to this now
except I did not include the domain. The docs, such as I have read them
suggested they are incompatible together.
You'll have to look at the bind docs to see how to set up your bind
server to forward requests for external IPs to your ISPs
nameservers. In Bind 4 (my server ran OpenBSD), after you defined your
local zones in named.boot you put:
forwarders 10.x.x.x 10.x.x.x
options forward-only
replacing the two 10.x.x.x addresses with your ISPs nameserver
IP addresses
According to the HOW-TO is am working from the correct format for my
named.conf is
forwarders first;
forwarders {
numeric ip ns1;
numeric ip ns2;
};
I am pretty sure it is related to my tinkerings but just can't see
where the problem lies. Any suggestions?
Fix the first prob, then the second may disappear. If not you can ask
again after the first problem is resolved!
Absolutely, spot on.
