[ilugd] [ANNOUNCE] pypt-offline 0.7.0 Released
Hi, After quite some time, I'm happy to announce a new release of pypt-offline. Some of the quick features are: * Offline Bug Report support - Users can now also have information about what packages contain bug reports. [Debian Only] * Colored Output - Full colored output. [ Support on Windows is through WConio] * Better support for threads * Many new options added I've now started using Mercurial along with SF's SVN which can be viewed at [1] and [2] I've also put up a video at [3] explaining how pypt-offline works. What is pypt-offline? pypt-offline is an Offline Package Manager for distributions based on Debian. It can allow a user using a Debian distribution with no internet connection to be able to update/upgrade his box with the help of another box running Windows/Linux/Mac A recent article from Ars [4] was informative enough to show how many countries still don't have [or is very expensive] a proper internet connection. I hope pypt-offline will be helpful to people who are willing to enjoy the powerful features of Debian but aren't yet able to do so because of internet connectivity. Feedback welcome.

Hi, pypt-offline 0.6.3 has been released. Changes == * On Mac OS X, use non-threaded model as threads were creating issues. (And I don't have a mac to look into the issue) * Implemented a threaded cumulative progress bar. Implementing a progress bar which could be cross-platform, threaded, for the console was a real PITA. I'm still not satisfied with the current progress bar but don't have much time to spend on it atm. Now, with a workaround progress bar done, the primary TODO in the list is to add offline bug report functionality. pypt-offline === pypt-offline is a utility for people using Debian (and distros based on debian) on a disconnected machine.

[ilugd] Dual interface routing
Hi, I have two network interfaces on my laptop (eth1 wired + eth2 wireless) and both are connected to the network. On eth2, to get things working, I need to run VPN (using vpnc) which adds another tunneling interface tun0. I'm looking for a clean way to mandate in my configuration: a) All traffic for 10.x.x.x should go through eth1 b) As for the rest, use eth2 i.e. tun0. Are there any utilities which can help ? Here's my routing table when only eth1 (the wired ethernet device) is activated. geeKISSexy:~# route -n Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 10.73.16.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.252.0 U 0 0 0 eth1 172.16.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 tap0 0.0.0.0 10.73.16.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth1 And this is when eth2 (the wireless device) gets activated.

Our friends here on the list can give many options, but the problem is simplicity, they are quite knowledgeable on these things, which I am not, and maybe you too. Read the 'mplayer' documentation, it is very simple. After you compile it, you will get it in the DOCS folder of the untarred archive. I don't know anything about these multimedia complications, but even I can do cutting and fixing movies. To give you a funny example: from three VCD-s of an excursion, I squeezed out a movies of 23 minutes: just the portions where my niece of five years is in the frame. And that too without knowing anything about all these. Just encoding the VCD-s through 'mencoder' into AVI files, and then cutting and fixing. das How about kmenc15 ? Description: An advanced Qt/KDE MEncoder frontend Kmenc15 is an advanced MEncoder frontend, generally designed to be a VirtualDub replacement for Linux. It is most useful for editing and encoding large high quality AVIs capped from TV. It allows cutting and merging at exact frames, applying any MPlayer/MEncoder filter, with preview. . It requires MEncoder 1.0pre5 to work. I doubt it will work on any other OS than GNU/Linux. It needs atleast an OS that supports named pipes (FIFO's). . It can also create shell scripts instead of doing the encode itself, so MEncoder is not essential for it to run (although preview won't work). MPlayer is essential though, without it the program will not even open files and cannot create shell scripts without the files. . The program is not quite complete, still a few features disabled, none of which are horribly essential. It does not support opening MPEG's. Only AVIs.

However, how do i make this wait by the parent a non-blocking wait?
This is because while checking for has the child died, parent is
blocked by waitpid hence cannot do other processing.
I've tried using WNOHANG in waitpid as waitpid(child, status,
WNOHANG) this is the output i get

Inside Parent
Calling waitpid
Child exited
Finishing else

Notice that parent exited before child died.
Am i using WNOHANG in a wrong way? or in a wrong place? What can be
other strategies i can use? I dont want to use threads as they'll be
an overkill (all i want to do is keep parent in non-blocking state,
while looping for child's alive status).

IPFW has something called divert which does similar stuff. In detail what i am trying to do here is move an application from Linux to Solaris: The iptables functional replacement I am looking for on Solaris 10 is the QUEUE (to userland) behavior. The appication's Layer 7 proxies all operate as daemons using sockets of type SOCK_STREAM. They write packets back to the userland packet engine on the loopback interface. The packet engine does Layer 2-4 work on them (address translation, loopback to real world external IP addresses, etc.); then forwards the packets out the physical interfaces using a linux specific socket type, PF_PACKET. I believe that the Solaris dlpi interface can adequately help me with the packet handling along the nature of PF_PACKET. The difficult area is the interception of the packets from the proxies into the packet engine. When the proxies do the STREAM writes, they are sending packets to a non-existent listner on the loopback.

Sorry no, it doesn't help us. If the machine is shipped effectively without an OS, they should say so clearly. Anything else is called deceptive advertising. Consumer perspective: Either you are getting a ready-to-use system, or you are not. If you were told it came preinstalled with windows, but it dumped you to an 8bit 640x480 VGA screen without drivers for any of the hardware, are you going to go oh well, that served me right, I really should have expected that I'll need to hire an MCA to set this up for me? I don't think so. Linux/Open source developer perspective: They are misrepresenting the software we are providing to the world, and we have a right to make a noise about it. The value of our brands and trademarks need to be protected. -Taj. That's a valid demand but not an easy task to do. Besides individual choices a company also has to make sure that its product lives and succeeds in the market. Free Software gives choice, which is good but not uniform. Something which is preferred by you isn't at all preferred by me. When I bought my laptop, it came shipped with Mandrake Linux, which I'm sure you like, but wasn't my preferred choice. So what do I do, say that the company is evil that it doesn't provide me the freedom to choose the distribution of my choice. No, certainly not. I really get surprised when people start shouting that Red Hat is evil because it changed Red Hat to Red Hat Enterprise Linux. Just by selling Documentation you can't survive. Engineering requires resources and money. GNU/Linux is still not a single entity. Any vendor prefers a SPOC to work with. That's one reason why Microsoft succeeded. None of the Unixes in the early 90's had a common standard. So if a vendor was to support Unix, he had to support multiple variants and work with multiple vendors. And that's the same case we're facing today again. If we really need to fix such issues, we need to fast and properly work on standardization (stuffs like LSB 3.0, LCC et cetera) BTW, whatever distribution ACER shipped with its laptop, does it cover support ?

[ilugd] swsusp swap space limitation
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hello Everybody, Is there a rule on the amount of swap space while trying to do a hibernate ? Here's my problem, I have a Compaq Presario 2203 Notebook with kernel 2.6.11 with Debian installed. Software Suspend (Version 1) works fine for me. I have 768mb of RAM where as my SWAP partition is 512mb. When I reboot my computer and suspend, it works but at the next attempt it doesn't suspend. Is it because of the swap space constraint. This is what I've found from the Linux-Laptop howto: - Software Suspend Software suspend enables the possibilty of suspendig machine. It doesn't need APM. You may suspend your machine by either pressing Sysrq-d or with 'swsusp' or 'shutdown -z (patch for sysvinit needed). It creates an image which is saved in your active swaps. By the next booting the kernel detects the saved image, restores the memory from it and then it continues to run as before you've suspended. If you don't want the previous state to continue use the 'noresume' kernel option. - So from the above paragraph what I understand is that it creates an image of my system, present in the RAM, and saves it to the swap partition. If that's right,damn! I can't repartition the harddrive now because I have lots of data. What I can do is, split one of the partition to add another swap partition (say 2gb) to the system. My present swap partition is /dev/hda5. I can spare another partition of /dev/hda8. My swsusp config in the kernel is hardcoded to /dev/hda5. But as mentioned in the above documentation, Will it automatically save the image across the active swaps (which would be two swaps in my case) ? But then, AFAIK, the kernel accepts only one partition as the argument. So which partition will it read ? Are there any other suggestions?

These days one does not need a technical degree to be in sys admin.. and there are abundant of sys admin ( non-technical back ground ) in India. I think you're wrong here completely. Take my live example here. I've been into GNU and Linux for the past 5 years. I'm able to now grade myself into Power User category too. I've cleared interviews from Wipro, Dell and many other companies. Got offer letters concerning the package plan. And then when I tell them that my academics are bad, people get stunted. Before I reveal this they say that I'm technically sound for the role of job they have and once I disclose about my degree they say they've got many company norms that don't allow undergraduates blah blah.. My answer to them, Fine.. Go, find a graduate with better skills. I did my S.L.C (60%) from Nepal. I did my +2 (40%) from Nepal. I did my B.Sc (IT) Distance Education Degree from Delhi from Manipal University (Final Semester Result awaited). Still people, organizations prefer degrees over technical skills. I'm not sure wether they should or shouldn't. This is one good reason for me to have been jobless since 1 year. So my conclusion up till now says: If you need a job, Go get a degree.

But what would be better option , single large swap partition or many small swap partitions (approx. 256 MB) in a hardisk ? correct me if i am wrong. AFAIK swap on multiple partitions and even on multiple disks (if you've got more that one) can bring better performance. My way of thinking about swapping is paging idle processes in the core onto the disk. Take an example of RAID. RAID - 4 5, which have redundancy features are said better. Why ? Read - Write and Disk IO is splitted onto multiple disks because data resides on multiple disks. In the same way if swapping is done on multiple partitions on multiple disks the disk read-write heads will get lesser overhead and thus will boost performance. Please don't question me for any thing technical in it.

[ilugd] [OffTopic] Domain ownership details
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hello all, I wanted a little understanding of how domain ownership works here in India. I've got a domain named researchut.com registered throught one of the Delhi's local domain resellers, Economicalhost. The international registrar is ENOM. My concern is, say if tomorrow Economicalhost goes bankrupt how do I reclaim my domain ? Yes, I know. I do have the passwords. But once somehow the passwords had got changed and I called up the folks at Economicalhost and they got it changed. Amazing! Where is privacy ? How do I then call myself the owner when Economicalhost can have access for modifications ? I verified my domain details at ENOM and found that all authority for my domain was given to the reseller Economicalhost. Is this the way domain ownership works ?? rrs - -- Ritesh Raj Sarraf RESEARCHUT -- http://www.researchut.com Gnupg Key ID: 04F130BC Stealing logic from one person is plagiarism, stealing from many is research. -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Made with pgp4pine 1.76 iD8DBQFBYn1b4Rhi6gTxMLwRAj1SAKCaOflII/uFDvmb0wZw7rgifKPEBACgj4uw VzTiFYcFBOdSKuZYywCVRLQ= =Cfsl -END PGP SIGNATURE- ___ ilugd mailinglist -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/
