Gracias. www.transformacion.cl SEXTO ENCUENTRO NACIONAL DE PSICOTERAPEUTAS HUMANISTAS Y TRANSPERSONALES ¿QUÉ ES EL DESPERTAR o ILUMINACIÓN ESPIRITUAL? 14 de Octubre del 2000 Un poco de Historia Los Encuentros de Psicoterapeutas Humanistas y Transpersonales se iniciaron en 1995, a raíz de la iniciativa del Grupo de Psicoterapeutas Humanistas y con el apoyo de la Escuela de Psicología de la Universidad Central. Desde entonces se han realizado anualmente, constituyendo un espacio único en que los interesados en el desarrollo de la consciencia humana -psicólogos o de cualquier otra actividad- encuentran la posibilidad de compartir y de conocer a diversos exponentes del tema. Los primeros dos Encuentros se realizaron en Santiago y los siguientes tres en Viña del Mar, con el generoso apoyo de la Universidad Educares. Los temas centrales de estos Encuentros han girado cada vez más hacia el ámbito espiritual, pues los tiempos requieren de respuestas radicales. En la psicología y psicoterapia, el enfoque Transpersonal aporta dichas respuestas, simplemente porque las interrogantes que se plantea son también radicales. Connotados representantes de esta corriente son, por ejemplo, Ken Wilber y Stanislav Grof. Quienes los inspiraron son la nutrida vertiente de los místicos orientales y occidentales de todos los tiempos, así como también precursores como Carl Gustav Jung, Víktor Frankl o Roberto Assagioli. En el último Encuentro, el tema fue ¿Cuál es la Espiritualidad que transforma?, escogido en el entendido de que la verdadera espiritualidad -de la que hablan los verdaderos místicos- puede transformarnos en esta vida, con nuestras circunstancias. Uno de los mitos en que hemos vivido considera a la espiritualidad como un ámbito aparte, separado de lo que es nuestra vida práctica de todos los días. Esto no es así. Y también es un mito que la verdadera felicidad nos espere en un mítico paraíso posterior a nuestra vida terrenal, como afirman varias de las religiones organizadas. Así, también, existe cantidad de mitos, malos entendidos y simple ignorancia respecto a la experiencia de Iluminación o Despertar Espiritual. Un nivel de consciencia más expandido -y que nos proporciona mayor felicidad y disfrute de esta vida- es enteramente posible para cualquiera que lo desee. Y a veces, sin siquiera buscarlo, la experiencia mística o satori se presenta espontáneamente, dejando un recuerdo imborrable en quien la experimenta. Hemos invitado a este Encuentro a personas que se han dedicado persistentemente, a través de sus vidas, a ser más conscientes y a conectarse con la fuente del Todo. Presentaremos sus testimonios, experiencias y perspectivas, en charlas y Talleres: no con el fin de entregar un modelo de lo que cada asistente debe hacer en su vida para conectarse con esta dimensión, sino para ofrecer distintos ejemplos y puntos de vista directos que, esperamos, inspiren en los presentes un interés y una forma propia de desarrollar su consciencia. En esta ocasión contaremos con la visita del maestro espiritual norteamericano Andrew Cohen, fundador y fuerza motriz de la revista What is Enlightenment? (¿Qué es la Iluminación?), y autor de diez libros, entre ellos La iluminación es un secreto, La Libertad no tiene Historia y Autobiografía de un Despertar. Andrew recorre periódicamente el mundo dando conferencias y talleres, y en este Encuentro dictará la charla inaugural. También impartirá -como actividades separadas del Encuentro- una charla y un Taller. Participarán también en el Encuentro los místicos norteamericanos Tom Heckel y David Pawlak, la psiquiatra Lucy Krstulovic y los psicólogos y psicoterapeutas transpersonales Ana María Noé, Alice Thomas y Alejandro Celis, todos los cuales dictarán Talleres relativos al tema central que nos reúne en esta ocasión: ¿Qué es la Iluminación? PROGRAMA DEL ENCUENTRO Fecha: Sábado 14 de Octubre, de 9 a 19 horas Lugar: Universidad Central, Carlos Silva Vildósola 9783 (Campus La Reina), Santiago. Horario: 8:30 a 9.15 hrs.

Framebuffer para Riva TNT
Hola, hace un par de días decidí probar la versión de desarrollo del kernel 2.4.0.test8 para ver qué tal iba la cuestión del soporte de framebuffer para mi Riva TNT. Probé primero a compilarlo dentro del kernel y no funcionó; luego probé a compilarlo como módulo y a cargarlo luego con insmod, obteniendo una resolución bastante cutre de 640x480 con 16 colores. Supongo que el mencionado módulo tendrá opciones de carga para variar la resolución y la profundidad de color, pero por mucho que he buscado no las he encontrado de momento. ¿Ha probado alguien el soporte de framebuffer para este chip con más éxito que yo? Si es así agradecería cualquier información. -- Un saludo Antonio [EMAIL PROTECTED] Clave pública gnupg en http://www.terra.es/personal3/aneiros1 Usuario Linux registrado Nº 189536 pgpzwqwMSSAjY.pgp Description: PGP signature

Para poder hacer eso has de tener instalado maficfilter. Mira si lo tienes con dpkg -l '*magicfilter*'. 2- Durante la instalación configuré el wvdial para poder comunicarme con mi provider. Luego cuando intento la conección todo parece funcionar bien, pero al correr el lynx me dice que no se puede conectar con la home page y se cierra, que puede estar pasando? como puedo hacer para saber si estoy o no conectado? Primero: No uses wvdial, te recomiendo que ya que estás en Debian uses pon/poff para conectar/desconectar, previa configuración de la conexión con 'pppconfig'. Para ello has de tener al usuario que use la conexión en el grupo dip (compruébalo con 'groups' y si no ves el grupo en cuestión lo añades como root mediante 'adduser usuario dip', siendo usuario el nombre del usuario en cuestión). El problema con lynx es seguro que no tienes las líneas: 127.0.0.1 mipatata localhost 127.0.0.1 mipatata.linux.es mipatata Ovbiamente los nombres de la máquina (mipatata) y el dominio (linux.es) serán en tu caso los que sean :) Si no sabe resolver los nombres de dominio exteriores a tu máquina (p.e: www.debian.org) es que no tienes puestas las IP's de los DNS's primario y secundario en /etc/resolv.conf, ejecuta 'pppconfig' que ya te será pedido. 3- Antes de instalar potato en la misma partición tenia RH 5.2, como también tengo instalado win95, usaba el fsdext2 para poder ver la partición linux desde win, ahora que tengo debian, cuando intento montar la partición con el fsdext2 se cuelga el win (no es que me extrañe que se cuelgue :) pero antes no lo hacia) es que fsdext2 no funciona con debian? si es así que otro software puedo usar? Yo me acuerdo que usaba uno, pero no era ese. Si quieres te lo busco pero ante todo te doy un consejo: No accedas desde tu Windows diréctamente a la partición Linux porque corres serio riesgo de estropearla. Para acceder a Linux desde Windows lo suyo es por red no diréctamente, puede ser fatal. 4- Quise instalar un paquete de los CDs pero cuando corro dselect hay un montón de paquetes no instalados marcados para instalarse, que no quiero que se instalen, ya se que los puedo deseccionar pero me llama la atención el por que no se instalaron en la primera vez y además no los quiero, esto es normal? Puede ser normal en tanto en cuanto sean necesarios por otros paquetes que hayas seleccionado alguna vez y no hayas terminado de instalar. 5- al principio cuando arrancaba el linux aparecía el pingüino con cerveza y arrancaba en modo texto, pero después de correr por primera vez las X, no solo que en el arranque no apareció mas el pinguinito, sino que arrancaba con una pantalla gráfica, lo ultimo ya lo solucione comentando al linea en /etc/X11/xdm/xserver (o algo así) pero que pasa con el pinguino, como hago para que vuelva? ¿Pingüino?, tu usas frame buffer ¿verdad?. Si antes lo usabas y ahora no (porque tu hardware gráfico no estuviera soportado por XFree 3.3.X y si por 3.3.Y, YX.) eso te pasa dado que al arrancar sin frame buffer no aparece. Bueno por ahora estas son las cosas mas urgentes que necesito, seguramente estaré necesitando mas de ustedes en el futuro.

Y parece que los procesos lanzados desde el menú de Window Maker tampoco. O sea, los procesos que no se lanzan desde terminal... Este comando puede ser bastante engañoso. Desde `top' sí que parece que muestra todo, pero el dichoso `top' solo se preocupa de lo que cabe en la pantalla. En fin, $ ps uU usuario es el que parece dar una información equivalente a `whodo'.

fonts TrueType
Hola lista Tengo algunas dudas de como colocar las fuentes truetype en potato. Al parecer hay dos alternativas: xfstt - TrueType Font Server for X11 xfs-xtt - X-TrueType font server Cual es la indicada? En RedHat bastaba con tener instalado xfs y agregar el directorio de las ttf en /etc/X11/fs/config previa confeccion del fichero fonts.dir y fonts.scale con ttmkfondir (puede ser inexacto, pero por ahi va). En potato he probado los dos server anteriores y la utilidad mkttfdir, pero sigo sin las ttf Cualquier idea es bien recibida Rodrigo

Add the domain to bind like you normally would.

hi ya -- i do not think one should have to buy a domain from someone else...especially if it costs um $35/yr on the high side -- some domains are going for $10M now days.way out of line but guess people think there is value in things like cars.com, tv.com, korea.com, etc..etc.. -- to register your domains just have 2 DNS servers - your own static ip# hopefully you have one - many many people outthere provide free secondary DNS -- if you have a dialup modem connection...than you'd need to ask someone else to host it for you... - networksolutions is a holding place - others in the market started the ideato charge people extra for it..for hosting your domain name... -- if you have a static ip# your DNS problem is trivial to solve... - Primary DNS is your static ip# of your dsl line say at home... - Secondary DNS is anybody_you talked to first... granitecanyon.com, dyndns.com, etc...etc..etc... search the web... ...or gimma private email and i'll play secondary... ,,,just a one line item in my dns fils... have fun alvin On Sat, 23 Sep 2000, Phil Brutsche wrote: -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far way, someone said...

DHCP client discovering too many interfaces
I just noticed something weird on my firewall Linux box (Debian GNU/Linux 2.2 standard, plus security.debian.org fixes). This box has 3 interfaces: lo of course, plus eth0 which is hooked to my cablemodem (an external interface) and eth1 which is hooked to my internal LAN. Obviously eth1 has a static IP address; my cable company wants me to use DHCP to discover the IP address for eth0, although I've had the same one since installation on June 1. Up until Sep. 9, it all worked fine and I'd see DHCPREQUEST notices in my daemon.log every 30 minutes or whatever the default was, and no other DHCP activity to speak of. On Sep 9 I apparently installed a new security fix for dhcp-client, and it restarted. Ever since that moment, I've had DHCPDISCOVER requests for both my lo and eth1 interfaces logged to daemon.log every few seconds, per interface! Sep 9 10:54:54 homegw dhclient-2.2.x: DHCPDISCOVER on lo to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 8 Sep 9 10:54:56 homegw dhclient-2.2.x: DHCPDISCOVER on eth1 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 17 Sep 9 10:55:01 homegw dhclient-2.2.x: DHCPDISCOVER on lo to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 19 Sep 9 10:55:13 homegw dhclient-2.2.x: DHCPDISCOVER on eth1 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 11 Sep 9 10:55:20 homegw dhclient-2.2.x: DHCPDISCOVER on lo to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 16 Sep 9 10:55:24 homegw dhclient-2.2.x: DHCPDISCOVER on eth1 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 17 ... Then every 6 minutes or so I'll see this, which I didn't used to get before, either: Sep 24 00:46:27 homegw dhclient-2.2.x: No DHCPOFFERS received. Sep 24 00:46:27 homegw dhclient-2.2.x: No working leases in persistent database - sleeping. Sep 24 00:46:27 homegw dhclient-2.2.x: No DHCPOFFERS received. Sep 24 00:46:27 homegw dhclient-2.2.x: No working leases in persistent database - sleeping. Things still _appear_ to be working OK, but my log files are getting absolutely enormous with all this extra stuff. And it seems like unnecessary work on the part of my firewall system. And maybe even extra traffic on my local LAN? I see (in the man page for dhcp-client) where I specify what interfaces dhcp-client should attempt to manage on the command line, but that would involve changing the /etc/init.d script, which I'm loathe to do since it would mean maintaining that through package updates, etc. Isn't there some kind of configuration option I can specify in dhclient.conf to tell dhcp-client to manage eth0 only, and ignore all other interfaces? I tried the dhclient.conf man page but couldn't really come up with the proper syntax. There doesn't seem to be anything relevant in the DHCP mini-HOWTO, there're no docs to speak of in the ISC page, and I can't get to www.debian.org to check the mailing list archives :-/. Also, does anyone have any idea why this suddenly started happening when I updated DHCP? I've since rebooted and still see this. Or, was it always doing this but not logging it before? -- --- Paul D.

Once your system is installed, edit /etc/apt/sources.list file (you must be root, of course) and add these lines: # # Helix GNOME # deb http://spidermonkey.helixcode.com/distributions/debian unstable main deb http://spidermonkey.helixcode.com/evolution/distributions/Debian ./ deb-src http://spidermonkey.helixcode.com/distributions/debian unstable main Those are the locations for Helix GNOME binaries, sources, and the binaries for the prerelease of Evolution (in case you want to play with that). Now, run apt-get update as normal (or, however you normally update your package list), and it'll grab the latest package info. Now you can install it however you like; go get everything including the kitchen sink you can apt-get install task-helix-gnome. If you just want the basics, try apt-get install task-helix-core, then you can apt-get install other specific utilities as you like. Of course, from now on a simple apt-get update apt-get upgrade will give you all the latest versions. -- --- Paul D.

Re: Branden confuses me with his recommendations for XF86 4.01 debs
Dear colleagues, I have a computer that its videocard seems to require XFree86 4.01. I use Potato. I searched for stuff available, and when I decided to use the binary packages, while looking for info related to Debian with XF 4.01, I found a letter in XF86 page mailing lists by Branden Robinson (the maintainer of the XFree86 debianized packages) that said the following: Debian users may prefer to try my preliminary XFree86 4.0.1 .debs instead of installing from the XFree86 tarballs. This is very nice, but in the X Strike Force page, maintained by him, I read Phase 2 .debs of XFree86 4.0 are now available. These are retrievable with apt, and should upgrade smoothly from version 3.3.6 of XFree86, *but please note that they are for testing, not general-purpose use,* Branden continues: and the library packages should definitely should not be used to compile packages for upload to Debian. Well, I am newbie. What do I do? I won't upload anything to Debian, but I consider I'll give Xfree86 a general-purpose use. I believe that if your video card is not supported by 3.3.6 then you have no choice. Otherwise, until 4.01 will be more mature you might settle for 3.3.6. I'd like to know if this is a decent question. Some days before I sent here a question that actually was very stupid, because the answer was in the docs (thanks to all repliers!). I take very seriously the large amount of questions posted here and I'd like to reduce my trash sent at the minimum.

On my [EMAIL PROTECTED], which used to Garden State [EMAIL PROTECTED], they use static ip's (woo hoo :) tied to the cable modem serial #. Even so, before I put the gateway/firewall in I was continually swapping machines connected to the cable modem (mac, windoze, linux, hp-ux) and the local cable modem segment would get very confused with the different mac addresses trying to use the same ip. Power cycling the cable-modem box would fix this. Even now with the gateway in place, the cable modem needs to be power-cycled every now and then if the local segment goes haywire. If your provider ties the ip directly to the mac on the network card then you can use a different card but you have to tell the provider about it (a quick, oooh lightning took out my network cards should be a sufficient reason for them.)

Re: How do I remove/unload isapnp?
I suspect that isapnp may be conflicting with the 5.9c ALSA drivers I'm trying to load. How do I configure the system so that I save my configuration files, but isapnp doesn't run? You can --remove the package as opposed to --purge it. However in your case you might simply put exit 0 right after the #! /bin/sh line in /etc/init.d/isapnp. There are probably other/better ways to do what you want as well. Note that the above requires you to reboot. Undoing isapnp actions without rebooting is probably possible but is more complicated. I'm hoping that ALSA can't configure the drivers because isapnp already activated the card. However, if I'm wrong, I don't want to lose the work I spent configuring isapnp. Do not know about the ALSA thing. Thanks in advance for your help!

I can't find it documented anywhere. look harder next time! ;-) but i must admit, that not everything is documented in an obvious way. just uploaded a version with a sligtly changed version of cfg/bfilter, which is the config file for the body filtering feature. regards -- Hi!

dselect query
Hi, just upgraded my system from a mix of Test 1 and Test 3 to the full 2.2 release. Noticed that I now appear to have alot of Obsolete/local Optional packages now showing in dselect. According to the docs the best way to get rid of this (as these packages are the current versions) is to run apt-get [packages] or remove and reinstall them. apt-get doesn't seem to work, tells me that the most up to date version of installed (this error didn't supprise me). Anyone got a easier hack to do this via a script of something, or any ideas as to how I can sort this out.

What does the second entry mean? OK, finally onto the woes part. When I run cdparanoia -B (burn the entire cd into individual files) I get the following interesting error: Checking /dev/cdrom for cdrom... Testing /dev/cdrom for cooked ioctl() interface /dev/sr0 is not a cooked ioctl CDROM.

I hope I'm missing something terrible simple because I'd hate to have spent all that money to convert to a scsi system and not be able to use it. :( Regards, Wm

This script takes a directory-tree as argument, it searches the tree for .dvi files and runs dvips on them (with output sent to /dev/null). The interesting consequence of this is that dvips calls MakeTeXPK to create the needed fonts and all the .dvi files currently on your system should then be processable without the need to call Metafont again.

As some of you know, I've recently converted to a full scsi system. I compiled a 2.4.0-test8 kernel with the following options: snip SCSI device sdb: hdwr sector= 512 bytes.

What does the second entry mean? I also had this with test8, but I can't yet remember why, I switched back to the last good test version I was using (2, was the last time I tried a test version, didn't have the time for any others). Not just because of this but also because the whole kernel modules directory structure (in /lib/modules/ you know what I mean (?)) changed and I didn't feel like playing with the /etc/modutils/ again. I would be interrested in hearing why this is though, but I think it's just some kind of test8 specific bug (it's still fun having so many harddisks though ;) you can even access them over those dual devices ! Atleast I could (I tried to startup cfdisk or something I think). (I just looked it up a bit in the kernel archives) seems they also turned some things around in the SCSI initialitation code. There was a whole thread about SCSI scanning so, I'm sure they are working on it. Try using a test9pre kernel, maybe that works better. Or go back to 2.2.17 or something (for now). All I can suggest. About your other issues I don't know.

My friend has the same laptop with RedHat, and when he uses VC or PCL-CVS to examine the status of the files, Emacs simple ask him its password on the other machine... when mine fails with the message Message: cvs [update aborted]: end of file from server (consult above messages if any) Message: Parser Error: 'You have no controlling tty. Cannot read passphrase.' I took a lot of time trying to understand better the default configuration of ssh (which is more in Debian that it is in RedHat ... at least is seems so) but I couldn't figure why it fails. In fact, it may or may not be related to ssh.

Personally I find Unix Power Tools to be my bible of Unix black magick. But won't tell you about the BEST reason to switch to Debian - apt, dpkg, etc. I think this is what he means - distribution specific. I was at a Borders just last night, and took a look at the newest edition of Linux in a Nutshell - it now does covers apt-get, dpkg, dselect, and a few others.

I seem to have four different possible sockets for the speakers. black, green, red, blue I don't know if there are 'standards' in place here, but my motherboard has a green (line out), red (violet, actually, mic in), and blue (line in). It has no amplified output for speakers, which is what your black jack is (i believe). I use the green jack with a pair of cheapo amplified speakers. As I said, this is on a new motherboard, not a Soundblaster card, so your results may vary. Any idea which of these is the one to use?

It's broken. The administrators know about it. Is searching the archives likely to be fixed soon? I have problems when I do not select the latest quarter. If not, is this due to lack of time to fix the bugs? If so, would it be possible to volunteer to help fix the bugs? Regards Tim
