Creo que es posible que tengas algún problema con las librerías de gtk. Comprueba que tengas la versión 1.2.X de la librería. Ah, y las fuentes de letra, abi-fonts. Como ya he dicho la versión que uso es la potato. Hola... Si, tambien tengo la de potato, y aparte de que he visto algo sobre esto en el bug tracking, he hecho esto: variable ABIWORD_FONTPATH sin establecer o con la ruta de las fuentes, si ejecuto abiword, se queda parado. Si ejecuto abiword.bin con la susodicha variable, tambien se queda parado, pero si lo ejecuto sin esa variable, se abre el editor, salen los menus, y una ventana con un mensaje de error, diciendo que no ha podido encontrar las fuentes. abiword es una shell script, que hace un par de cosas y despues llama a abiword.bin Saludos.

RES: O discucao besta!!
exemplo, o caso de fazer uma medição técnica, que penso que será familiar a quase todos nesta lista. Por limitações de escala (ou outras), nunca se faz, em rigor, uma medição exacta; faz-se sim uma medição aproximada por defeito ou por excesso. Defeito, aqui, quer apenas dizer que a medição é muito próxima do valor real, mas que falta uma pequena quantidade. Isto é, tem um significado muito parecido com ausência, tal como default. Interessante, nunca tinha visto esse uso! É que minha formação não é em ciências naturais nem tecnologia... ou seja, para mim por defeito continua não sendo um termo que seja de fácil entendimento para pessoas sem formação específica.

new php3 packages
Hello! I've made some preliminary php3 packages, version 3.0.11. Anyone interested can download them from ftp://ftp.elte.hu/pub/people/gorgo/php3 These packages fix the long-standing mysql problem which was caused by the mysql package reorganization and the fact that there wasn't a good mysql package in potato/main I could link against. The libmysqlclient6 package the php3-mysql module depends on is currently now in incoming but will be installed into archive tomorrow. I expect to upload the final 3.0.11 packages by then too. So if you test them now, please notify me of any success/failure reports. In the next upload expect some new modules like snmp, imagemagick, pcre, but first I want to get this package set into the archive as soon as possible, so no new packages yet. -- Madarasz Gergely [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] It's practically impossible to look at a penguin and feel angry.

Email Config Questions
Hi all; I've decided to try and configure my home system to send and receive email the right way (not using Netscape). The reason for the switch is that I eventually want to be able to access my email remotely using telnet/ssh (another thing I need to learn about). I have a few questions about setting this up, but first I'd like to present my situation. I am connected to the Internet via a cable-modem with the [EMAIL PROTECTED] service. So I am always connected (unless I reboot to Windows for a little gaming). I figure that I am going to use exim, but I don't know which default configuration I should start with (Internet site or Internet site using smarthost). Also, will exim alone work? or do I also need to use fetchmail? Also, my email address is [EMAIL PROTECTED], but my username on my system is mwagnon. So I want incoming mail that's addressed to [EMAIL PROTECTED] to be delivered to mwagnon. Is this a pain, or should I create a new account using mwagnon1? If anyone has experience in setting up there machine with the @home service and is willing to share their configs, I'd appreciate it. Also, if you know of any other documentation on setting up mail with exim I'd appreciate it. I'm a big dummy, and the spec file for exim is scaring me. tia -- __ _ Mark Wagnon Debian GNU/ -o) / / (_)__ __ __ Chula Vista, CA /\\/ /__/ / _ \/ // /\ \/ / [EMAIL PROTECTED] _\_v/_/_//_/\_,_/ /_/\_\ http://www.debian.org
Re: Updating the system - Debian newbie needs help
I recently switched from SuSE 6.1 to Debian potato and I'm really happy. I like my Debian system more and more every day. I applied this distribution-switch strategy: free up a partition from SuSE and take it out from fstab to become your new root partition, download the install floppy image and make a boot floppy, download the base package plus what else you need to get you on the net and let you get the rest. In my case they were the base package, data-dumper, dpkg-ftp, perl and drv1440.bin which you already got when you made the floppy. I downloaded all these to a regular SuSE partition and then booted off the floppy and chose 'install from HD. Then I installed a minimal system by ftp and used BootMagic to let me boot both systems. Maybe fixing LILO to boot both sytems would work too but I never tried it. Alternatively, you could boot one of the systems from floppy. Finally, I started porting my configurations from SuSE to Debian by temporarily mounting various SuSE partitions. Some might argue that archiving /etc and various other parts is enough but I always seem to leave stuff behind when I switch distros. Luckily, it looks like the days of switching are over :). I think now that even better would be to get the apt stuff first and use apt as retrieval method in dselect. One final piece of advice: If you have your mind set on switching, uninstall all non-essential packages from SuSE first and resize/combine as much as possible off your SuSE partitions. Then start your new Debian system with all the partitions that you would want already created and mounted. It took me quite a bit of juggling to go from a one root partition Debian on /dev/hda 10 to my usual 4-5 partitions setup. Good LucK ! and I'm sure you won't be dissapointed.

Re: Email Config Questions
I've got basically the same situation, except I live in Memphis and use the Time Warner Roadrunner system. First of all, to send outgoing mail with exim, select the smarthost configuration, and enter [EMAIL PROTECTED]'s outgoing SMTP server as the smarthost. Also, make sure that you enter 'localhost' as one of the local domains. The only scary part here is the From: address. I probably didn't do it The right way, but I just added this to my .muttrc file (you are using mutt as your mail reader, aren't you? :-): my_hdr From: Stephen Pitts [EMAIL PROTECTED] Secondly, you need to setup a .fetchmailrc file for fetchmail. Fetchmail is the preferred way to get email from your POP3 account to your mail files in ~/Mail (or wherever). Fetchmail delivers mail to the user who runs it, so don't worry about mwagnon1 vs mwagnon; it doesn't matter. Here's my .fetchmailrc poll pop-server protocol POP3: user smpitts password * Where pop-server is the Roadrunner POP3 server and everything else is self-explanatory. The first time you check email, use fetchmail -v to watch fetchmail and make sure it runs right. When you are confident, then use fetchmail -d 600 to poll every ten minutes. Thirdly, You need to sort your emails. Exim comes with a builtin sorting mechanism. Here are some rules from my .forward file for the debian lists: -- begin .forward # Exim filter -- do not remove or modify this line! if error_message then finish endif if $h_Resent-From: contains debian-user then save $home/mail/debian-user elif $h_Resent-From: contains debian-devel then save $home/mail/debian-devel endif -- end .forward That's really about it. I would suggest starting out with mutt by copying /etc/Muttrc to ~/.muttrc and editing it from there.

does anyone have time for a minor project?
Hello everyone! I have had some requests from the various lists that I have belong asking me to get a /. style news site up that details tech law events, legal developments, and interpretations. I would like to use my domain 'ompages.com' for this. One problem. I can't code! I don't understand perl, etc. I'm a law student as some of you might know (other don't care but now you know). So I can spend a lot of time research topics and posting news. I think the time has come for a site that deals specifically with law and legal implications for tech business, and development. I would like to do 3 primary things for this. 1. Get my firewall configured right. 2. Get slash configured right and revised (so that it won't look like a cheap knock-off). I will anyway, but if there is genuine interest in this project we can get something more original together. 2.1. I would like some kind of ssl awareness etc for this. 3. Get a web mail (horde/imp) thingy going that's free and handles pgp keys. (kind of extravagant but doable w/i the next year). There are significant legal issues that must be mulled over if we can get enough support for an open legal communication model from the Open Source/FSF/hackers-at-large community we can get more good lawyers to post opinion pieces and analyses (non-legalese versions), and HOWTOs. I will handle a majority of the content work if 1 or 2 people would be willing to either get the slash code working for our purposes or show me how to do it, and get the network sufficiently secure.

apt, Official slink CD-ROMs, and potato
I have a 2-CD Official Debian GNU/Linux 2.1 set, LinuxMall edition; or just plain 'slink'. I'd like to experiment with the 'potato' distribution (which has an improved SVGA X server needed with my video hardware), and then configure apt to get the needed spuds off the web, (running under dselect in hopes that this is the easiest way), but also have it so that it gets any duplicate files from the CD set. If this isn't so clear, here's a generic example: given a dselect-ed request for 'foo.deb', what's wanted is to have that file looked up in whatever package database apt uses, and then compare the version number of 'foo.deb' on the CD- ROM with that of the online potato 'foo.deb'. If the slink CDs have this same version, it'd be better to get the particular package from the CDs, but if the online potato distrib has a newer version of 'foo.deb', then the object is to have apt fetch that online copy instead. One minor difficulty is that, so far as I can tell, dselect only allows one to add Debian distribution locations to its apt method. I can use dselect to add 'ftp://ftp.debian.org' to apt's list of places to look for .deb files, but later on if I want apt to quit looking there, there's apparently no menu option to make dselect forget a particular apt address. Currently my apt list from dselect has gotten large and unwieldy, so it's no longer clear which location has priority. So, if dselect doesn't allow one to fine tune an apt location list, the question is: which config file for apt should be edited? Another question might be whether this usage of apt is reasonable or even possible to begin with. Any pointers to relevant docs, HOWTO's, hints, and so forth would help too and be much appreciated as well.

I boot 3 different linux partitions (Slackware, RH5.2 and Debian 2.1) and Win95 from LILO. It's a bit of a hack... I used the LILO on the RH5.2 partition to manage everything. I first mounted the slackware and debian partitions somewhere in my RH tree. The lilo.conf wants to know the location of the kernels for each partition on that partition, so I stuck symlinks into the RH tree to the kernels on the mounted slack and debian partitions in the places where the kernels would be if the slack/debian partion was mounted on root. A diagram: In my debian partition: /boot/slink-2.0.36 is the kernel In my slackware partition: /vmlinuz is the kernel In the RH partition I have the following symlinks: /boot/slink-2.0.36 - /mnt/linux/debian/boot/slink-2.0.36 /vmlinuz - /mnt/linux/slack/vmlinuz (assuming /mnt/linux/debian and /mnt/linux/slack as the mount points) Then in the lilo.conf for the RH partition I have: for debian: /boot/slink-2.0.36 for slackware: /vmlinuz With the symlinks in place and all partitions mounted, LILO can find the kernels as required. Since the paths are correct for each individual partition, LILO will be able to find the kernels it needs when you select a particular partition at boot up. Have fun! Matthew
Re: Email Config Questions
Thanks Stephen and Didi for replying.
Okay, I installed fetchmail and created my .fetchmailrc file. I
configured exim using the #2 option and added my mail server as the

When I ran fetchmail -v with mail on the server I got an error
(something about localhost). When I ran it without mail on the server, I
didn't get any errors. Also, sending mail from mutt gave a
strange/cryptic error message (to follow). I checked out the fetchmail

are found, but they aren't popped of the server. Here's the error

I'm running potato, kernel 2.2.10 on a K6-2/350 with 64 MB ram. It's a generic video card with a Cirrus 5430 chip. I have no idea where the 22.778 MHz maximum dot-clock line came from. Any ideas? Looks like something must have changed somehow. If this was the entirey of the output from X, it looks like you only had one mode defined in XF86Config: 1024x768. The dot clock this mode asks (the first number in the Modeline definition of the Monitor section) for is not is not available on your videocard. Maybe you deleted the DotClocks definitions in the Device section ? The 22.778 MHz maximum dot-clock line came from the X server probing your card to see what clock frequencies it was capable of generating. So there is a mismatch between what you ask for in the 1024x768 Mode definition and what the video card is capable of generating. When the X server determines that the video card cannot provide the dot clock requested in a given mode definition, it deletes that mode definition from the list of available resolutions. If you had other (valid) mode definitions in XF86Config, the X server would continue with the next mode in the Display section. It looks like you don't have any other modes defined. Have you examined your XF86Config to see if it got hosed somehow ? You might have to reconfigure. Hope this helps. Gerald
Re: X won't start
Bob Nielsen bombs his X after a bout of kernel compilation: _X11TransSocketUNIXConnect: Can't connect: errno = 111 giving up. xinit: Connection refused (errno 111): unable to connect to X server xinit: No such process (errno 3): Server error. This is a problem which can bug U. I had gone thru a similar phase and I narrowed down the problem. See whether U have compiled the UDP socket as a module. This should not have been compiled as a module but it has to be built-in to the kernel. My reasoning is like this if I am not being a fool of myself. The kmod stuff removes your udp.o module if you have not started your X server for a period of time. How can the Xserver connect to the udp socket now ? Try starting X after U 'insmod udp'. Lo and behold has it come up..?? Hope this is of some help. ragOO, VU2RGU.

XF86Setup problem
Same thing with my Potato system. Pat
Problems with smbmount
I'm using smbmount-2.1.x (from smbfsx 2.0.3-1) in a slink system with kernel 2.2.9 and some potato stuff. (smbfs is compiled as a module, and CONFIG_SMB_WIN95 is not set.) I use it to mount shares from our NT domain, which generally works fine. However, I have a couple of problems: 1. Sometimes the connection gets dropped, so the mount point appears empty, the connection is still present according to df but cannot be unmounted. Re-mounting works but gives a duplicate entry in df output. A smbumount after this remounting removes all entries relating to that connection. 2. Very occasionally (like yesterday) the connection goes bad. It no longer appears in df output and if I try to look at or move the mount point I get a message like ls: L: Input/output error (where L is the mount point). I have not figured out a way to correct this problem without rebooting, which should only be for new hardware or kernel versions! Anyone else have these problems? Any solutions or pointers, especially regarding the second problem, greatly appreciated. Kevin

Another error message
Hi Yesterday i asked what Unable to load interpreter meant. Today I have another question related to an error message. In the very same machine where i was getting the interpreter message i started a memtest 2000 1000. This machine is a remote server and it crashes almost on a daily bases and the message is always the same block on freelist at xxx isn't free. In this sittuation nothing runs but the machine still ping's etc. If linux mm is somewaht similar to minix, then i think i can understand (minimally) whats happening here: there is a block on the freelist (the list of free memory blocks) wich isn't actually free. My question is what maybe causing this ? Some crazy process ? Is there a way for me to find out wich? I think that the kernel is a 2.0.xx and it's a bo machine. Another thing that happens is that when i reboot the machine is starts spitting out general protection errors (with register(???) dumps) and says (lots of times) kfree on non-kmalloced block (or something similar). Finally, is there a doc somewhere that explains these messages ? Thanks for everything! -- Mario Filipe [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://neptuno.sc.uevora.pt/~mjnf

Re: Email Config Questions
The error that you got from sendmail might have been caused by not having
'localhost' added to exim.conf on this line:
# Specify your local domains as a colon-separated list here. If this option
# is not set (i.e. not mentioned in the configuration file), the
# qualify_recipient value is used as the only local domain. If you do not want
# to do any local deliveries, uncomment the following line, but do not supply
# any data for it. This sets local_domains to an empty string, which is not
# the same as not mentioning it at all. An empty string specifies that there
# are no local domains; not setting it at all causes the default value (the
# setting of qualify_recipient) to be used.
local_domains = home.com:localhost
I haven't messed with SMTP in inetd at all but I would restore the entry in
inetd.conf and fix the above line in exim.conf (in case it's not already there)
and try again. From the error message it looks like fetchmail is configured
right

Package problem.
I have a problem with the package system. We use mysql compiled straight from the original source-tarball. We've also installed libdb-mysql-perl which depends on mysql-base. Because of this unmet dependency, apt refuses to do anything. Is it possible to make dpkg think it has installed mysql-base without actually doing it? Or install it without overwriting the current mysql installation? Thanks for any guidance -- it's really no option to install mysql from a package. -- Gravity brings me down.

I've got a similar machine. (Epox MB instead of IWILL) And I can't keep my box alove longer than 2-3 days. My ASUS P5A (400MHz AMD K6-II, two 64MB DIMMs) gave me some initial difficulties. It ran fine at 95MHz FSB, but had problems at 100MHz. (Windows crashing, random programs dying with sig 11 under Linux.) I swapped out all the hardware from the place I bought it; I put in an extra case fan. Nothing worked. Finally, in desperation, I swapped my 128MB DIMM for two 64MB DIMMS from my parents' computer. It's now running fine in their motherboard, and their memory is working fine in mine. Go figure...

Java Documentation
I'm looking for the java source documentation in the slink jdk1.1.7 distribution but can't seem to find it anywhere. This is what all the java texts say should be in jdk1.1.7/doc, or the html versions of the source files. In /usr/doc/jdk1.1/README.Debian it says that there is a package jdk1.1-doc that contains the documentation and demos but this package doesn't seem to exist. I looked in the mailing list archives for some previous discussion of this, but didn't find any, so here I come to the list. Anyone know where this stuff is, or, if its packaged? Thanks...

I upgraded a box to potato and now samba doesn't work. I've looked in the samba archives and the postings I found suggest that this is because the newer versions of samba use a setresuid call (or don't) and get a bad return value (http://us1.samba.org/listproc/samba-ntdom/1639.html).

What's the best way to organize small drives
NEWBIE ALERT! I just installed slink on a 486-100 (Windows throwaway) with 3 salvaged drives (each 540 MB). I partitioned them as follows: hda1bootPrimary Linux ext2250.4MB hda2Primary Linux Swap63.99 MB hda3Primary Linux 201.8 MB hdb1Primary Linux ext2515.82 MB hdc1Primary Linux 515.82 MB When I chose the type of system I wanted during the installation, it found the packages and began downloading them, then ran out of disk space. Should I have made the boot partition larger? Or is there a proper way to have the packages moved or installed on one of the other partitions? What am I missing here?

Re: (ana)cron message
You probably removed emacs 19 but the line is still present in /etc/suid.conf. Edit /etc/suid.conf, find the line and delete it. Then run 'suidregister' as root and you shouldn't get any errors anymore. One more elegant way of doing it would be to run 'suidunregister' file. [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: HI!

Re: What's the best way to organize small drives
David: I believe you are given the opportunity to mount multiple partitions during the installation process. At the very least, you should mount / and /usr on two separate (largest) partitions. These are the directories that fill up quickly. Some people also choose to mount /home, /usr/local, and /tmp separately as well. You should mount all of the available partitions when you're given the chance during the installation.
