Thanks for your reply! 
Unluckily the --no-shadow option doesn't solve the problem as my
foreground is black.
But, if I delete the .dialogrc file the whole screen foreground is
blue. In this case I can see that the --no-shadow eliminates the right
end corner (black) shadow but not the problem described above.

Afaic understand, in the dialog structure the border lines are written
as 'black on white fg' which does not go well on my black background.
Perhaps I should modify some of the dialog sources files but I don't
know how and which one to adjust...

Regards,
  Ennio

PS: If necessary I could send a copy of the script I'm testing with an
abridged .dialogrc. But where to send it? As an attachement or within a
massage (with '<< EOF - EOF')?

Package: dialog
Version: 1.3-20160828-2
Severity: minor

Hi all!

As I like to work on virtual console with black background, when I try to
use dialog with my personalized colors (and a .dialogrc file) the 'upper
left inner box'  and 'lower right external box' lines appear as black
lines on white background, whereas the remaining lines come out on a black
background as the whole dialog background.
Deleting the .dialogrc file the corner lines are still in differnet
colors, but on the same 'grey' background.

What can I do to correct these results?
Thanks for your attention,
   Ennio


PS: My PC is quite old and I'm afraid there would be no room to upgrade
and install a newer dialog version

Bug#602940: linux-image-2.6.32-5-686_2.6.32-27_i386.deb

2010-11-09 Thread Ennio-Sr

Package: linux-image 
Version: 2.6.32-5-686_2.6.32-27_i386.deb
Severity: normal

Debian/Squueze - Linux 2.6.32-5-686 #1 SMP Sat Jul 24 02:27:10 UTC 2010 i686 
GNU/Linux

Hi all,

last week the upgrading to sub '27' of captioned linux-image stopped
on a line saying 'Running yes' while running update-initramfs. To
continue, I had to find the relating process and kill it, thus receiving
an error and no upgrading of the image.
I tried a few times until, almost by chance, looking at the 'ps' output I
saw this line:

root 22526  0.0  0.0   3680   480 pts/2S+   00:02   0:00
  \_ yes 2.6.32-5-686 /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-5-686

thus becoming aware there really was  a '/usr/bin/yes' program (in coreutils
pkg). So I decided to try again after hijacking 'yes' (moving it to
'/usr/bin/OLD.yes'):



# apt-get upgrade

.
Errors were encountered while processing:

...
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)


Despite the error, the image is correctly created and the bootloader
updated. However, looking into the 'postinst' file, I was unable to find a call 
to
'yes' so I do not quite understand what and why is happening. On the
other hand, I see no reason why such a program, whose aim is to 'output
a string repeatedly until killed' should intervene in the upgrading
process.

Thanks for any help.

ennio

Bug#593869: Gcompris - segmentation fault on start

2010-09-01 Thread Ennio-Sr
I have further info on the subject:
1. after instaling gstreamer0.10-alsa (which is not among the packages
   gcompris depends on) the program will start running but goes in
   segfault as soon as one attempts any of the games;
2. starting the program with -m flag seems the only way to run it to some
   extent
Hope this helps.

when I try to run gcompris I get:

The previous versions (under the same system) runned smoothly but it is
not possible to downgrade now as downgrading would disrupt a few other
programs.

I put a strace of the program ('gc-str.zip') in my public space:

Hi!
I just discovered that:

Error: could not rename pg_hba.conf
^^^

came out from the fact that ownership of old postgresql/8.3 was set to
root.root instead of postgres.postgres as in 8.4
Once corrected, pg_upgradecluster 8.3 main
completed its work smoothly.

Sorry for any trouble I might have caused.

There seems to be no way to get out of the empasse because if I try to

What can I do?

Bug#551616: [bugs] udev conflicts with noflushd?

2009-10-19 Thread Ennio-Sr
Package: udev
Version: 146_5
Severity: normal

A few days ago, following an upgrade wich included udev I found that two
of my HD kept spinning despite noflushd (version 2.7.5.6-1) was running
as usual. Still worse, I noticed that noflushd did stop the spinning
disks, but afer a couple of seconds they were up again!
Examining the output of 'ps auxfwww' of both situations I realized that
udevd was probably responsible for the 'new' behaviour.

AAMOF, downgrading udev to version 0.125-7+lenny3 set things right.

Here follow the two lists of processes:

Bug#551549: [bugs] pulseaudio_0.9.15-4.1 conflict with skype-debian_2.1.0.47-1

2009-10-18 Thread Ennio-Sr
Package: pulseaudio
Version: 0.9.15-4.1
Severity: normal

After upgrading from pulseaudio_0.9.10-3+lenny1 I found out that skype
audio was not working as before: making a test call reveals that
microphone does not work at all and the relative window is labeled as
'Conference Call - 1 participants' and tends to stay open for ever.
Then, the usual 'CTRL+Q' will not close the program and a 'killall
skype' will still leave around one instance of the program itself which
is only closed with 'kill -9 pid_no'.
Clicking on the 'PulseAudio server (local)' label which appears beside
all three upper items in the Sound Device window doesn't have any effect
(whereas using old pulseaudio for lenny a list of devices appears).

A better description of what happens can be seen from a few screen dumps
I took while running new pulseaudio and old one (screen?.xwd), together
with the apt-get commands (screen?.dump); they can be found at the address:

http://mio.discoremoto.alice.it/mr_why_net/

which requires no access password.

I'm using Debian-Sqeeze/Lenny with kernel 2.6.30-2-686.

I'm at your disposal for any further information.

Best regards,

Ennio

 This is not a valid domain name.

OK, but it doesn't seem to be responsible for that error: aamof I
changed all those lines but stil get the error! (Not to mention that
old Etch ersion works correctly despite those lines).

One more thing, however, may be worth saying: I changed .bashrc and
.bash_profile LC_ALL line to read:
LC_ALL=en_US
Following that change, the Etch mutt version showed correctly all
(italian) vowels with an accent, whereas this Lenny version will show
them as a couple of alien letters.
I suspect there is something wrong with 'locales' but I do not know
what else to look at (I eliminated the /etc/environment, tried with
LC_ALL=C, reconfiguring locales doesn't show any arror). Choosing
it_IT as LC_ALL allows me to write accented vowels from console, but
disrupts the accented in past mail messages - a black square appears
in their place).

As my intention is to help and not to waste your time, in case these
problems are only mine you just tell me and I'll stick to the older
mutt version.

Thanks for your attention.

Ennio

 Hi,

 if I'm not mistaken, you need to specify a character set in the LC_ALL
 setting (and LANG/LC_something), so LC_ALL=it_IT should really be
 LC_ALL=it_IT.iso-8859-1 or it_IT.utf-8.

I tried any sort of combinations to no avail ...;(

 Of course your terminal needs to match the setting.

Not sure I fully understand what does that mean: any particular *.config
file to look at? 'charset=G0' to be changed to something else?

 A frequent error is to have config files, or more often, alias files,
 with the wrong character set. Make sure there are no legacy latin1
 characters in there if you are switching to utf8. (vim will often fool
 the user in thinking everything is right by converting things on the
 fly, but that will bite back more sooner than later.)

Neither Mutt nor Postfix config files contain non-ascii chars. As to
alias files to the best of my knowledge there is only one
/etc/postfix/aliases with no non-ascii.

 I'd suppose that your from header is affected by such a problem (even
 though there doesn't seem to be a non-ascii char, maybe the error
 message is just wrong).


Unfortunately I have no other clues. AFAICR something similar happened
when I switched from Sarge to Etch and then it was 'cured' by subsequent
updates. Probably the 'bug' is in glibc library (isn't the one
controlling locales?) judging from the great mess coming out when I
change LANG and LC_ALL to something different from 'C' or 'en_US|GB'.
I feel sorry not being able to be of further  help and for the time
being I'll stick to previous mutt version ...

Thanks for your help.

 I've just upgraded my Debian distro from Etch to Lenny.
 When I pressed 'y' to send a message written with mutt (from console) I
 got the warning:
  Bad IDN in from: ...(username)..[at]tin.it 
 which prevented me to send the message. I could however 'postpone' the
 message and quit mutt.

 Hi,

 could you send the uncloaked error message in full, as well as your
 $from and relevant my_hdr settings so we have a chance to debug this?

 As Frank already said, I suspect a badly encoded config file to be the
 culprit.

The original error line was:
Bad IDN in from:  'tin.it'

Here follow details of my root and user locales, main Muttrc and user
.muttrc. As I told Frank, I did try with different locales but got
always the same result, so went back again to previous mutt version.

I've just upgraded my Debian distro from Etch to Lenny.
When I pressed 'y' to send a message written with mutt (from console) I
got the warning:
 Bad IDN in from: ...(username)..[at]tin.it 
which prevented me to send the message. I could however 'postpone' the

Googling around I couldn't find out what that meant and no better info I
could get from past bugs.
Downgrading to 1.5.13-1.1etch1 'cured' the error.

I've upgraded my Debian distro from Etch to Lenny and installed pg-8.3.
When I tried to run it I got the following error:

(see:  pgsql.hackers discussion of aug 2007 [change name of
redirect_stderr?]) the program runs smoothly.

Bug#502111: Vim: cannot find colorscheme default [solved]

Vim claimed it could not find coloscheme default.
AAMOF  the very first line of /etc/vim/vimrc refers to vim70
- quote -
 Configuration file for vim

- quote -
total 3
1 addons/  1 registry/  0 vimcurrent@  0 vimrc@
0 gvimrc@  1 vim71/ 0 vimfiles@

so it'is very simple to correct the error.

Bug#422836: installer: No dual boot after installing Debian-poperpc Etch_40r0 on iBook 300Mhz

2007-06-10 Thread Ennio-Sr

Subject: installer: No dual boot after installing Debian-poperpc Etch_40r0 on 
iBook 300Mhz
Followup-For: Bug #422836
Package: installer

*** Please type your report below this line ***

Hi all,

You might be interested to know that what what Mr Pierre Bauduin
reported in the captioned bug also happened on an iBook (First
generation).

Here follows what I did:
I replaced the 3GB HD of my ibook (MacOS9 and Debian (Sarge) ppc happily
working on it) with a brand new 80GB HD.
I booted from an OS 9 CD, made 4 hfs+ partitions (70 GB reserved for
Debian, the other 3 for Mac OS 9, Mac OS X and an Xchange partition),
installed Mac OS 9, rebooted and could see that the system was there.

Then I rebooted from a _powerpc net-installer_ CD and installed the
Debian_40r0-powerpc, re-partitioning the big Debian partition into 13
ext2 parts plus a small Apple_bootstrap one. Added the macos= line in
/etc/yaboot.conf, ran ybin and rebooted.

Well, at this point I could see the label relating to Mac OS 9 (beside
the Linux one) but when I chose it I was presented with the small
icon in the middle of a white screen with a flashing question mark in
it! What is worst is that when rebooting from the Mac CD, no HFS
partition was visible and the only option would be to re-initialize the
HD. Linux would instead boot and work nicely.

I ran the full installation process three times (changing the position of
the HFS partitions in the doubt that 80GB could be too much for MacOS9,
or that all partitions should be made from Mac and then changed to ext2)
but, alas, the result was still the same.

An fdisk -l /dev/hda shows me that the HFS partitions are there (BTW,
they appear as HFS and not HFS+ as chosen when initializing from Mac).

Any suggestion? May be I should re-install choosing the old Potato that
worked fine on previous 3.0 GB hd?
Or, perhaps, the 'old glorious' G3 300Mhz cannot master the 80GB hd?

Thanks for your attention,
Ennio


P.S.: In the /var/log/installer/syslog there are a few lines saying:
 ... kernel: XFS: SB validate failed
I can send you all the files in /var/log/installer in case you need
them.

Bug#379677: Subject: openoffice.org-common: openoffice searches for soffice.bin, which doesn't exist

2007-02-08 Thread Ennio-Sr

Hi all!

Package: openoffice.org-common
Version: 2.0.4.9
Severity: important [but there is a simple workaround]
Running under Debian.Etch, Kernel 2.6.17-2-686
---
I'm not sure this is really pertinent to the captioned bug Ifound while 
trying to solve a similar warning coming out when OOo was called by the 
'/usr/bin/ooffice' wrapper or as a reference in the Netscape Helper 
Application to open .sxc files.


The situation may be different as I installed alien-ing the rpms files 
untarred from 'OOo_2.0.4_LinuxIntel_install.tar.gz' as the etch version 
did not fit my requirements.

Anyway, here we go:

When starting openoffice, it sais:

$ ooffice
/usr/lib/openoffice/program/soffice: line ...: 
/usr/lib/openoffice/program/pagein: No such file or directory
/usr/lib/openoffice/program/soffice: line ...: 
/usr/lib/openoffice/program/soffice.bin: No such file or directory


AAOF those files are not present in that dir.

The 'cure' was to set a symbolic link for the respective files (which in 
my version are under /opt/openoffice.org2.1/program) to 
/usr/lib/openoffice/program/[pagein | soffice.bin].


HTH.

Ennio.

Bug#402448: Mutt fills indicator spaces with alternate color pipe (|) symbols

 Re: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2006-12-10 [EMAIL PROTECTED]
  You might be interested to know that, when used in a text console, mutt
  fills spaces in the 'indicator' line with pipes colored alternatively
  with the fg and bg colors chosen for 'color indicator' in muttrc.
  
  That doen't not occur when it is used in an xterm, or with kernel
  2.4.27-1-386 (both in console or xterm).
 
 Hi,
 
 while I don't have the faintest idea what causes your problem, I doubt
 mutt is at fault here, rather some locale settings or the terminal.
 
 Could you check that your locales match the terminal, and also try
 `LC_ALL=C mutt`?

As I said, this behaviour 
- started when I changed to kernel 2.6.17-2-686
- does not occur when I use mutt in an xterm or with older kernels

and may now add that it
- does _not_ occur only when assigning 'red white' or 'blue white' to
  _color indicator_
- (does not occur with slrn) 

Hope this helps, but please ask whatever new info you may need.

I'm glad to inform you that changing the Section Screen DefaultDepth

Although I think you could reasonably close the bug, one question

configured X in old Woody and tried to run it with the wrong value, some
'goblin' would come out [better: should have come out](*) from within the X
Window System and tell me that depth 24 was not supported by my video
card!

(*) added now for clarity sake.

no hanging was occurring after changing the Screen DefaultDepth to 16,
so I could regularly use my TNT2 for a couple of years with no problem
whatsoever.

A few months ago I upgraded my Mb and Video card.

 The kernel you're running is too old for 3D acceleration with the
 current upstream version of xserver-xorg-video-ati. You need a 2.6
 kernel to use the DRI.

As reported in my initial post on the subject, problems started with
kernel 2.6.17 ... (whereas 2.4.27 was good enough with Sarge).

 Still worse, if I try to run ppracer (which tested ok under Xfree86), I get:
 ... 
 *** ppracer error: Couldn't initialize video: No video mode large enough for 
 1280x960 (Success)

 That's a ppracer issue. It doesn't automatically fall back to a
 different video resolution if the one set up in its config file doesn't
 work.

AAMOF, changing a few values in /etc/X11/xorg.conf made X work as nice
as with XFree86. And the test for 3D with the ppracer was good also.

 As there's no X bug above, I'm closing this report. If there are other
 issues that haven't been reported yet, please reopen this report or file
 new ones, one per problem, with specific descriptions.

Agreed.
Thanks for your quick answer.

this is just to inform you that I've been experiencing the same problem
Bob reported, both using OOo_2.0.2  (.debs through alien) and OOo_2.0.3

Either downgrading libfreetype6 to 2.1.7-2.4 or installing the

Hi!
in my last mesage relating to the captioned bug I wrote (Nov. 24, 2004):
--

'goblin' would come out from within the X Window System and tell me
that depth 24 was not supported by my video card!
--

Despite that I did experiment many other hanging-up, but still I had no
clue as to what was happening, so I didn't report them.
To-day, after my PC froze again, I took different steps which may
possibly throw some light on the subject.
I had all six consoles opened as follows:
F1 - root (idle)
F2 - user (idle)
F3 - user (idle)
F6 - user --start x -- running lopster (on F7)
F5 - user --startx -- :1 -- running speedy (on F8)
then I opened
F4 - user --startx -- :2 -- running mplayer -vo xv -autosync 1 file.mpg (on 
F9)
after half minute watching on F9, the screen (and the PC) froze.

I ssh-ed in with my laptop and run top, which showed an XFree86
abosrbing from 60 to 94,6% of CPU!
Instead of rebooting (as in past occasions) I killed the above high
absorbing XFree86 process and nothing changed; killed .xinitrc running
on tty4 (running mplayer on F9, the screen the PC had frozen on) and
nothing happened; killed .xinitrc on tty5 (running speedy on F8) and saw
a black line across my F9 screen: something had happened!
While trying all the CTRL-ALT+F1 through F6 I could see part of the F9
screen progressively full of garbage blacking-out the window ...
finally, CTRL-ALT+F7 showed me the window where lopster was running and
after that I could re-gain control of my PC!

While still having the laptop connected via ssh I tried to reproduce the
hanging-up doing again the same steps and watching from top running on
the laptop what went on on the PC: the speedy-preloader took almost 45%
CPU and about 49% was taken by XFree86 when I launched mplayer ...;
after a while (i.e. whan F9 window froze), XFree86 was absorbing up to
96,5% CPU.

What I can conclude from my un-technical point of view is that it's the
CPU's lack of resources to cause the freezing and wonder whether there
could be a sort of pre-warning as to avoid it.

Thanks for your attention and for your wonderful work.
Regards,
Ennio
