RV: Shutdown incompleto y arranque incompleto (arreglado)
Hola a todos de nuevo Anoche cuando apague el ordenador, el proceso de shutdown se quedo detenido despues de enviar las señales KILL y TERM a los procesos del runlevel 0, tuve que apagar por las bravas, porque de ahi no avanzaba. Esta mañana cuando he arrancado, el proceso tampoco ha sido completo, despues de ejecutar lo qu tengo en /etc/rc.boot, deja de hacer cosas y me presenta (none) login. Tengo el bash, porque puedo hacer login, montar la particion root en lectura/escritura, ir arrancando cosas de /etc/init.d, tengo entorno multiususario, creo que establece todas las variables de entorno, pero no hace el arranque automaticamente (las tengo, pero no he comprobado que esten todas las que son). Supongo que el bash estara bien, aunque sea una recompilacion hecha por mi. Bueno, he conseguido arreglar esto. Efectivamente la version compilada por mi no hacia expansion de comodines correctamente, con lo que no arrancaba los servicios. Lo he arreglado instalando el paquete bash*deb desde una shell tcsh. Lo que me ha llamado la atencion, es que tenia instalado el libc6 2.1.94 y el libc6-dev 2.1.30. No se si este es el motivo de la mala compilacion, pero creo que no deberia haber dejado la instalacion de esta manera. Saludos.

[PCMCIA] Unresolved symbol
Hola a todos: Me compré un modem PCMCIA marca 'La Pava' para el portátil. Compilé el kernel 2.2.17 (make-kpkg --revision 1:custom.1.1 mi_kernel-image) y los móculos pcmcia, para 2.2.17 (make-kpkg --revision 1:custom.1.1 mi_modules-image). Todo bien: el módem funciona y no anomalías en el sistema. Pero: 1. En el arranque aparece un 'unreolved symbol' referido al módulo 'epic_cb', del grupo de 'cardbus'. Lo de los 'unresolved symbols creo que lo solucioné una vez quitando de las opciones del núcleo la opciónd de control de versiones de módulos. Pero ¿se os ocurre alguna solución menos drástica? Esa opción, al fin y al cabo, es útil. 2. Cuando conecto, con ATM0W1Número, no me da en el 'log' la velocidad de ^^ conexión, y me gustaría saberla, porque me parece que va muy lento. 3. ¿Los módems PCMCIA admiten todos los comandos AT? La configuración en serial.conf, por ejemplo para ponerle 'spd_vhi' como opción, parece no funcionar; sí sin embargo en las 'serial.opts' de pcmcia. ¿Por qué? ¿Genera una especie de puerto serie de mentirijillas que va por libre respecto a setserial?

Real Time Linux para un sistema Embedded
Hola a todos, Dicen que la esperanza es lo último que se pierde, pero hoy la verdad después de haber quemado una memoria flash de 256MB y con ello mucho dinero, estoy a punto de hacerlo. No obstante, y dado que nos encontramos en un mercado global en el que el conocimiento no tiene fronteras me he animado a escribir a este foro. El hecho es que llevo tiempo intentando instalar un Linux para tiempo real en un sistema de los que se denomina Embedded, y claro sin aún conseguirlo. Los de Eurotech, los que me han suministrado el módulo PC-104 sobre el que desarrollar mi aplicación, aseguran que una aplicación en tiempo real, utilizando RTLinux, puede correr en unas pocas Megas de memoria física en su módulo. Pero la verdad es que todavía no lo he conseguido, por ello me preguntaba si alguien que se haya encontrado en mi misma situación me podría dar alguna clase de solución. Es decir, necesito: - Alojar una aplicación desarrollada en RTLinux en una memoria flash de 50MB (antes tenía otra de 256 ,pero...). - Hacer que el sistema (el LILO) arranque directamente desde la flash y ejecute la aplicación. Nota: He leído algo acerca del Hard Hat Linux. ¿Esta versión de Linux me facilitaría las cosas? Estaría realmente agradecido si alguien me pudiese dar algún tipo de sugerencia o pista, con la que poder seguir trabajado. Gracias ante todo por haberme atendido, atentamente Julen Gonzalez E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

x2x y dos x server en el mismo host
BUENOS DIAS!!! Estoy intentando utilizar el programa x2x con el xfree de potato para tener dos monitores bajo X en el mismo ordenador, y me surgen varios problemas. Por ahora ya he conseguido que me funcione en modo texto, y puedo tener dos consolas en modo texto, una en cada monitor y cambiar de una a otra, incluso puedo tener una con Xwindow y la otra en modo texto. pero: 1º es una vodoo3 y una hercules, por lo que tengo que utilizar XF86_SVGA para el display :0 y XF86_MONO para el display :1, pero como en debian utilizan un wraper para no hacer suid el servidor X, pues no se como hacer, y solo soy capaz de ejecutar un segundo servidor X como root. Se me ocurrio utlizar un enlace simbolico y cambiarlo antes de lanzar cada servidor, pero me gustaria algo mas pofesional. 2º si asocio cada servidor X a una consola virtual diferente, funciona bien, pero cuando paso de una a otra, la otra se me apaga. es decir si lanzo el svga como :0 en vt9 y el mono como :1 vt10 pulsado alt+f9 me sale el server svga, y al pulsar alt+f10 se me apaga el svga y se me enciende el segundo monitor con el server mono. 3º si asocio los dos servidores X a la misma consola virtual, funcionan los dos a la vez, pero al cabo de algunos segundos se arman un lio con el raton y se va todo al carajo, esto lo solucione, haciendo que el raton del segundo servidor sea /dev/null, pero ahora se arma lio con el teclado. Ademas tengo que lanzar por narices el servidor svga el segundo, por que si no se me corrompen todas las consolas en modo texto. ¿Alguna idea? ¿Alguien tiene experiencia en esto? -- Dohhh?? - Richard Holden, a nobody.

Re: Erro ao imprimir
Olá Guilherme, Não tenho certeza sobre o que está acontecendo. Vou apenas dar algumas sugestões: Por acaso você tem algum tipo de configuração especial na BIOS para a sua porta paralela? Veja que o sistema está acusando um IRQ 7 para uma porta paralela, o que não é normal. Portas paralelas não são interrupt driven, trabalham por polling. No seu caso, pode ser que você tenha ou alguma configuração especial ou algum tipo de hardware especial. Neste caso, procure por informações na documentação do seu kernel como habilitar interrupções para portas paralelas. O meu kernel já é o 2.4 e não tenho os fontes do 2.2 aqui para verificar. Eventualmente, o que você vai precisar fazer é executar um comando do tipo: # echo 1 /proc/algum_arquivo_config_parport Ou seja, habilitar a comunicação com a porta utilizando interrupções. Procure algo que faça sentido no /proc e veja se funciona. Espero ter ajudado! --- Guilherme Oliveira [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Boas !

Infra-estrutura SOs desses mes
Sinto muito, caros amigo, mas sua reportagem sobre qual Linux escolher tem uma falha gravíssima. Vocês dizem que o Red Hat tem um gerenciamento automático de versões e atualização mais simples que o do Debian. Isso provavelmente se deve ao fato de vocês não terem experimentado o APT, ferramenta atualmente exclusiva do Debian e distribuições baseadas nele. Ele faz exatamente tudo o que vocês citaram com muito mais praticidade. Por exemplo, para atualizar uma versão inteira do Debian bastam 2 comandos: apt-get update apt-get dist-upgrade para instalar um pacote: apt-get install pacote esse comando faz gerenciamento de dependências, baixando todos os pacotes necessários. sem contar uma ótima ferramenta que é o auto-apt, que solicita a instalação de pacotes necessários a uma compilação, por exemplo. Para informação de vocês, a Conectiva está tentando portar o apt para sua distribuição, mas não consegue resultados satisfatórios, pois o rpm não tem a infra-estrutura que o deb tem. Gostaria de deixar também uma bronca... tenho visto em muitas revistas que ensinam como fazer instalação de programas no Linux sugerirem que se reinicie o linux. Isso é tolice sendo que se pode reiniciar apenas o serviço necessário por meio de seu respectivo script em /etc/init.d (debian) ou /etc/rc.d (red hat e baseados). Esse tipo de publicação acaba simplesmente com uma das melhores qualidades do GNU/Linux, a não necessidade de reinstalar e reiniciar.

Well there appear to be two problems! One is answered here #man fetchmail . fetches mail from remote mailservers and forwards it to your local (client) machine's delivery system. The fetchmail program can gather mail from servers sup porting any of the common mail-retrieval protocols: POP2, POP3, IMAP2bis, IMAP4, and IMAPrev1. It can also use the ESMTP ETRN extension. (The RFCs describing all these pro tocols are listed at the end of this manual page.) While fetchmail is primarily intended to be used over on- demand TCP/IP links (such as SLIP or PPP connections), it may also be useful as a message transfer agent for sites which refuse for security reasons to permit (sender-initi ated) SMTP transactions with sendmail. As each message is retrieved fetchmail normally delivers it via SMTP to port 25 on the machine it is running on (localhost), just as though it were being passed in over a normal TCP/IP link. The mail will then be delivered locally via your system's MDA (Mail Delivery Agent, usu ally sendmail(8) but your system may use a different one such as smail, mmdf, exim, or qmail). All the delivery- control mechanisms (such as .forward files) normally available through your system MDA and local delivery agents will therefore work.

I found out the hard way that the Debian Install Guide wasn't kidding about /etc (among other things) being pretty much the property of dselect/apt/dpkg, etc. I had been farting around w/ exim, sendmail, masqmail, postfix, etc., and noticed that when I had masqmail installed, there were a _lot_ of files in /etc/ and /var/ that belonged to postfix and exim, even when they weren't installed. Well, I'll just rm those suckers. Whoops. Not a good idea. I later reinstalled postfix, and debconf errored out, cause those files weren't there. Same w/ exim. Well, rather than dink around trying to figure out what package _did_ install those files, since the MTA they went to obviously didn't, and since I didn't have a lot of time and effort sunk into my system yet, I opted to take another tour thru the lovely Debian installation program ;). Except I forgot that I actually had some useful stuff on my /home partition, and wiped it. :( So I am pretty much lost my whole archive of messages from all the mailing lists I follow. Talk about getting your fingers rapped! Ouch!! Well, now that I have my mail kinda sorta operational again, using Communicator, here is some answers to some of the issues/questions you kind folks have asked: I used to use sendmail plus a script called install-sendmail to set up sendmail fetchmail, to retrieve my mail from Yahoo!, and send new mail w/ the headers written properly as being from [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Netscape by itself, even w/ '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' in the From: field in Preferences, would pop up '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' in one of the mail fields, which would cause someone's spam filter on the SuSE list to kick in, and some other people just plain got irate. So I used the script, sendmail, and fetchmail instead. Quick, simple, painless). Unfortunately, the Debian install of sendmail doesn't seem to jive w/ the install-sendmail script, so that rules out sendmail, as I am _not_ masochistic enough to want to configure that critter otherwise. Exim would work fine, I guess, but I was initially having a bit of trouble (I guess I still am) figuring out _exactly_ what I need to change where, for my situation: essentially a home dialup system, w/ a local username different from the username on my mail account. Postfix does seem to have a fair bit of documentation that addresses that specifically, so I'll probably pursue that next. The problem I think I had w/ fetchmail not being able to deliver to the localhost smtp port was w/ masqmail, not exim. Masqmail is the other finalist for my situation, at least as I currently see it: it is a simple,

Re: Article: Debian's Daunting Installation
RedHat, Mandrake, and SuSE are all quite easy to install and start using. I find they only get difficult later on when you need to fix something that broke, or want to upgrade. They can also become a real mess if you install un-official packages. yes that's basically the problem with easy to install (as in GUI) distros. what's being done is hidden from the user by Gooey. Debian and FreeBSD are both easy to install, easy to start using, and easy to maintain. You can stick to a stable branch, or you can track the bleeding edge. I actually prefer FreeBSD for its ports system and cvsup. But FreeBSD is a source-based distro, where Linux is binary distribution. agree. as this two *nix don't have pretty faces to hide what's going on you're in control. i like both *nix as they share (somewhat) the same package management idea. apt-get or cvsup anything you want!

Printer configuration on debian - Another question
So, I have my modem running under my debian installation. Thanks to the ones who helped me. Next step (no, it's not an OS): Setting up the printer. I have printtool installed, so I'm able to set my printer up. When I run printtool and click Add, it says: lp0: there's no printer (or something like that). lp1: there's no printer. ... The problem is: The device lp0 is not bound to parport. I recompiled the kernel, installing parport issues (I think auto-detection). In the system initialization, debian gives me the message: parport0: HEWLLET-PACKARD DESKJET 690, or something like that. But when I type the command cat /proc/parport/0/devices, the only thing it says is plip. I think it should be plip lp0, shouldn't it? Or should I remove (how?) plip and bound (how?) lp0?

Re: Woody time!
Woody upgrade: I did't change potato to woody in sources.list, just added a new source woody. When I did apt-get dist-upgrade, it says that I have to upgrade 411 packages. OK.

Maybe that's just because I don't know yet what's out there... Anyway if you're looking for a good MUA on one of the MS platforms I'd look at Eudora (handles attachments like a charm and has an almost clean bill of health regarding security). If you want cross-platform useability then I'd recommend Pine (I use it at work on a NT box and at home with debian, both with the same .pinerc). HTH Grx HdV P.S.

Curse these cursed signal errors!
Hey, I keep getting Signal error 4 wihle trying to compile my kernel, and I get a signal error 11 while using WindowMaker (trying to switch themes, etc.) I know that signal errors are supposed to be hardware, but I can't see how mine is. I've replaced my motherboard, RAM, and Hard drive, and I've swapped CPU's with my friend to try this (he can compile just fine). I'm quite confused.

X Fonts are too big
I don't know if this has happened to y'all. Anyway... My XServer is running fine. I have a NVidia Riva TNT 2 video card, with a LG monitor. The only thing is that the fonts for some programs are too big. Gimp, for example, is working with a very big font. Netscape is also. The problem with the latter is that with such big fonts in the window, it occupies lots of space in the screen. It bothers me. The other problem I'm having with X debs of potato (which seems to be 3.3.6) is that normal X Fonts (such as Utopia and Helvetica) are all strange and badly drawn. I'm running a True Type font server (xfstt) and True Type fonts are just fine. What seems to be the problem? I looked for the documentation in xfree86.org and they are not mentioning anything wrong with fonts in such X Server. If anyone ever had this trouble, what am I doing of wrong here? I've installed all the fonts (100dpi, 75dpi, Speedo, Type1 and TrueType). Best Regards, -- Leonardo Dias Analista Programador / Analyst Programmer Catho Online http://www.catho.com.br
PS/2 mouse
Greetings, I had Debian Linux up an running just fine - until I removed the serial mouse and replaced it with a PS/2 mouse. Actually, I was playing with the modem COM and IRQ settings too. Now, the PS/2 mouse works fine when I boot into WIN98, but freezes when I boot into the Linux x-window (Using GNOME). The modem dials out OK from linux but when I switch back to the x-window session, it freezes up and there is no mouse recognized. It there a trick to setting up a PS/2 mouse after I originally had the serial mouse configured? Thanks, Don

Re: Article: Debian's Daunting Installation
Quoting [EMAIL PROTECTED] ([EMAIL PROTECTED]): Daunting installation? I totally disagree. Debian is the easiest console mode installation I have ever seen (Win 3.1, Redhat 5.something, etc.). The difficult part for me was creating the bootable CD. Once I figured out the queer directory structure, it was as simple as flopping the CD on the drive and pressing enter, enter, and enter... My main complaint is against the Debian ftp directory structure: Unlike with Redhat and Co., you can't just copy the files off the ftp site (unless you're willing to put up with the truly daunting 650 MB iso download). Debian lumps together the various architectures, such that a simple recursive ftp from (target site)/pub/linux/distributions/debian/ won't do the trick. Redhat, on the other hand, has separate directories for the files needed for i386, sparc, alpha, etc. (I'm not sure if things will remain just as neat with the multi-CD Redhat 7.0). I don't understand. I see .../debian/dists/potato/main/binary-i386/ so what's that but the architecture? Or did you expect to see the architecture above the Debian distribution in the tree?

How to partition a 10GB disk
Hi I am trying to partition a 10 GB IDE hard disk using the cfdisk that starts up during the debian 2.1 (slink) install. The problem is, cfdisk thinks the drive is only 8 GB. I've tried AltF2 into another console and then fdisk's o command to reset the MBR, followed by w. When I reboot and restart cfdisk, it still says there are only 8 GB available. If I use partition magic, I can create the partitions as I want them, but then, when I reboot and start the install, cfdisk says the MBR is corrupted FATAL ERROR: Bad primary partition. Any suggestions? I tried using just fdisk, BTW, but it also thinks there are only 8 GB on the disk. -- Best regards, Peter Hugosson-Miller TAG name=windoze action=bash/tag begin:vcard n:Hugosson-Miller;Peter tel;fax:+468 676 5010 tel;home:+468 756 93 58 tel;work:+468 676 52 70 x-mozilla-html:TRUE org:A href=http://www.im.se;IMG SRC=http://www.nasdaq.com/logos/IMIC.GIF ALT=Industri-Matematik International/A version:2.1 email;internet:[EMAIL PROTECTED] title:Software Development Specialist note:Private mailto: [EMAIL PROTECTED]Personal Homepage: http://www.netg.se/~hugge/ adr;quoted-printable:;;Kungsgatan 12-14=0D=0ABox 7733;103 95 Stockholm;;;Sweden x-mozilla-cpt:;19328 fn:Peter Hugosson-Miller end:vcard

Re: How to partition a 10GB disk
Not sure you need to make a kernel change, unless I have done so accidentally (ie used one where the change has been made for other reasons) what you do need to do is either update the mobo bios or use the c h s commands in fdisk to tell it how big the disk is. The 8Gig restriction was afaik a BIOS one. Jeff [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: You need to have ATA-2 IDE support compiled in your kernel. It supports IDE HD's larger than 8 Gb.
