Squid for apt.
Hi, I am running plenty of small debian installation on vmserver and I wish I could you squid for caching apt-get's downloads. I recently set squid , but as far as I can understand access.log my squid is always downloading files from internet , not from its cache. Would you have some experience in 'caching apt' ? Should squid's host and all clients use the same DNS ? Thanks, Pawel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: 1GB RAM is missing.
I just installed AMD64 Debian, put 4th RAM stick, but new sysytem does not see the memory, even if I set mem=3900M in grub. I completly do not know what to do now.

Re: 1GB RAM is missing.
Some update: BIOS sees 4G as phisical memory and 3G under Usage memory. All sticks are fine. Any order , any sticks ,BIOS always sees 4G physical and 3G usage. I set the momory variable in GRUB.

Re: 1GB RAM is missing.
I use x86 ,becouse when I used amd64 it was quite unstable , but do not know how's things now. Pasi: what was the RAM seend by BIOS , when I use 4 GiB ,bios sees only 3052 GiB (But the MSI board can hadle up to 8 GiB) If I would rise RAM number with GRUB (like you, 3900GiB), could I get more then seen by bios (3052 GiB) ?

Re: 1GB RAM is missing.
Thanks for that. Here's mdesg output for 4GB insalled? http://pastie.caboo.se/109588 And there si a question , how to get k7 (or k8) kernel for the newest kernel 2.6.23.1 ? btw I use own - compiled kernel , but here are results of search for k7 in Debian SID repositoires http://pastie.caboo.se/109590 And there is no k8 in use , probably.

And how to get k7 ? (or this is an option in kernel?) Sorry for that , completly not familiar with k7.

Re: 1GB RAM is missing.
Yes, Motherboard supports 8GiB, Here is dmesg output for 3 of 4 RAM sticks http://pastie.caboo.se/109470 Might be helpfull. This morning I will paste Dmesg output for 4 of 4 RAM sticks. Andrei, do not hurt me , but I am not too familiar with k7 ? Is it just option of kernel ,like 2.6.23.1-k7 or more like system architecture x86 , am64 etc?. I use AMD 64 Athlon X2 is K7 for me ? I tried swaping all of them in any possible order, none of sticks is broken. Kind regards, Pawel Gega -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

1GB RAM is missing.
Hi all, I just builded mo own x86 machine , and I am quite surprised ,because 1GB of RAM is missing (1GB of 4GB) and my Debian's boot time is 10 minutes. Moreover when I take off one RAM stick (which will give me 3GB RAM) my system boots in 40 seconds - I am amazed. All of RAM sticks are fine, I tested all of them together and separately. I just cannot use them together. My problem is I want to use 4GB RAM at full power, and have no idea what might be the problem. I must use 3GB to make my system booting quickly.(not only booting, system works faster with 3GB) Please save my poor life. :) And the machine is AMD Athlon x2 4000+ (I use 32bit Debian now) MSI K9A Platinum motherboard 2 sets of Geil 2gb dual channel 800mhz (2x 1GB) Seagate SATA 500GB HDD -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
