Re: Creer un point d'acces wifi

Flashplayer affiche des boites grises [Résolu]
Salut, Je suis en SID AMD64 kde4 à jour et j'ai un gros problème à l'affichage d'iceweasel des parties de pages ne s'affichent pas ou sont grisées ou disparaissent si je passe la souris dessus, ce qui est très pénible, en cherchant sur le net et particulièrement dans le forum d'adobe, j'ai trouvé ce message qui décrit bien mon problème (en anglais): Flash Player linux, grey box issue (youtube vids and some applets do not display) http://forums.adobe.com/thread/684388?tstart=0 la conclusion de ces messages est la suivante, le problème vient de mauvais théme QTCURVE installé avec Kde. the problem was not due to KDE, but was actually caused by faulty QTCurve (theme) settings from WITHIN KDE. KDE apps weren't affected, however GTK ones were (QT and GTK apps were both being themed by QTCurve, although only the GTK apps were acting up). The problem was resolved by loading one of the presets from the QTCurve configurator, and then customizing it to taste. . Pour ma part après recherche je n'avais pas le thème qtcurve installé après installation de qtcurve tous les problèmes ont disparus comme par magie. il semble donc qu'au cours des migrations de Kde 4.x à Kde4.4 des thèmes d'affichage sur mon ordinateur ont été altérés et c'est cela qui crée ce problème. J'ai écrit ce message pour tous ceux qui risquent de se heurter à ce problème. A+.

Sauvegardes journalières de VM avec rsy nc
Bonjour, J'aimerais un conseil car j'aimerais effectuer des sauvegardes régulières de machines virtuelles tournant sous Xen. Pour l'instant, je fais des sauvegardes complètes chaque jour depuis mon dom0 : rsync -a --partial --progress --delete $directory_lv_snapshot_mount/ $vm_output_current_directory/ L'incovénient est qu à chaque fois ca fait quand même une grosse archive, donc je me dis quel'idéal serait de faire par exemple une sauvegarde complète une fois par semaine et le reste du temps une sauvegarde de ce qui a été modifié / ajouté / effacé par rapport à la sauvegarde complète. L'idéal serait qu'en cas de pb, je puisse restaurer la grosse archive, et ensuite appliquer les différentes suppressions / modification / ajout de fichiers par rapport à celle-ci. Ou bien peut-etre qu'il est plus prudent de faire comme je fais actuellement?

C'est (IMHO) un très bon outil, relativement facile à configurer. Son principe est de faire, la première fois, une synchronisation complète de la machine (ou de ce que tu veux), puis de ne mettre à jour que ce qui a changé, les fichiers non modifiés étant des liens durs vers le snapshot précédent. En termes de place, ça ne consomme que le volume de départ + les diffs, tout en fournissant un backup complet (grâce aux liens durs) à chaque exécution (donc même pas besoin de restaurer les diffs à part). Et, cherry on the cake, il supporte par ailleurs LVM que tu sembles utiliser. Ou bien peut-etre qu'il est plus prudent de faire comme je fais actuellement? Je crois que ça reviendrait au même, mais sans consommer autant de place.

As any software, it may still have a few bugs, but will work for normal usage and is in use now for large personal and corporate backups.

Il suffit de chiffrer la partition, déjà c'est plus rapide que gnupg et ça évite surtout de paumer une clé dont on peut avoir besoin plusieurs mois plus tard. Par ailleurs, le chiffrement d'un backup ne vaut que si le serveur d'origine est strictement protégé (principe du maillon le plus faible): c'est techniquement bcp plus facile de se barrer avec un zip rempli à partir de l'original. Donc, pour conclure, chiffrer ça peut servir mais à la condition d'en avoir vraiment un besoin vital; pour du perso, l'intérêt est limité voire dangereux pour la raison expliquée ci-avant. Et je n'ai rien vu dans les docs au sujet de w$ (ce qui est quand même la préoccupation d'une majorité d'entreprises.)

Re: Swap al principio o al final del disco duro?
Hola Francisco: Depende del uso de memoria que le vayas a dar a tu equipo. Si no vas a lanzar procesos que consuman más memoria física de la que dispones, es indiferente, pero si vas a hacer un uso mayor de memoria que la física, entonces tu sistema usará mucho la memoria virtual (disco) y por tanto yo la pondría en la mitad del disco, ya que el tiempo empleado en alcanzar el centro del disco será menor si está en el centro que si está en un extremos del mismo. No obstante la ganancia no será apreciable, pero si eres un fanático de la optimización, yo lo pondría ahí. On Jul 24, 2010, at 11:34 AM, Francisco Javier wrote: Hola a todos.

debian alternatives priorioties
Λόγω ενός προβλήματος να ανοίγω υπερσυνδέσμους μέσα από τον icedove/thunderbird με τον πλοηγό της επιλογής μου (επέμενε να τους ανοίγει με konquerer -εχω squeeze kde-) κατέληξα να ψάχνω το σύστημα alternatives του debian. Το ενδιαφέρον είναι οι προτεραιότητες που καθορίζουν ποιά εφαρμογή θα είναι η επιλεγμένη αν δεν την προσδιορίσουμε εμείς. Στην περίπτωση αυτή οι δημιουργόι ενός πακέτου θα μπορούσαν θεωρητικά να εμπλακούν σε μια διαμαχη που θα οδηγούσε μαθηματικά σε ολοένα και αυξανόμενες προτεραιότητες. Αναρωτιέμαι αν υπάρχει κάποια δικλίδα ασφαλείας ή το θέμα αυτό λύνεται κατόπιν καλής διάθεσης και συννεόησης. attachment: aprekates.vcf

wifi gets disconnected frequently
Hi All, I am using Squeeze and my Wifi link in my Laptop (Acer 5583 Series) gets frequent disconnections, but gets connected after a few seconds. This happens only with squeeze. While I was using Lenny, it was working fine. So I installed the non-free driver corresponding to Lenny instead of squeeze and tried. But the same issue. The Wifi Module is iwl3945 and the message I get in /var/log/messages while connection/disconnection is given below: Jul 24 23:13:12 squeeze kernel: [ 6775.084909] Registered led device: iwl-phy0::radio Jul 24 23:13:12 squeeze kernel: [ 6775.084949] Registered led device: iwl-phy0::assoc Jul 24 23:13:12 squeeze kernel: [ 6775.084984] Registered led device: iwl-phy0::RX Jul 24 23:13:12 squeeze kernel: [ 6775.085021] Registered led device: iwl-phy0::TX Jul 24 23:13:12 squeeze kernel: [ 6775.093072] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready Jul 24 23:13:14 squeeze kernel: [ 6776.741328] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): wlan0: link becomes ready Let me know if anyone has a clue on how to fix this.

unbelievable, #...@%%!! grub breaks for me AGAIN
I recovered by editing the grub commands using the 'e' command and by some miracle got the thing to ask me what my boot disk is AFTER booting. very strange. here's the best part. I gave it the same device grub couldn't find and the system booted just fine. *...@$! grub. so I'm not sure what I need to provide to have some kind soul help me with this, so I'll just describe the problem and maybe somebody can tell me what additional info to provide. the problem, of course, is that it times out and tells me it can't find (?) the root filesystem. I've run update-grub, and it things everything is just hunky dory. insert cursing here. here's the menu entry that DOESN'T WORK (the linux line is wrapped) : insmod part_msdos insmod ext2 set root='(hd0,msdos2)' search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set a948d6b6-8395-49a1-9f0f-21a10ceee9c2 echo'Loading Linux 2.6.32-5-amd64 ...' linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-5-amd64 root=UUID=a948d6b6-8395-49a1-9f0f-21a10ceee9c2 ro quiet echo'Loading initial ramdisk ...' initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.32-5-amd64 I have checked the uuid's using search from the command line in the booted, working system and it agrees with what grub is using. I _think_, but am not sure, that when I used 'e' to edit the grub commands I DELETED the search command and replaced the uuid with /dev/sda2 in the linux command. two things seem odd to me. 1 /dev/sda2 is a linux partition so what's up with insmod part_msdos and why is set root (hd0, msdos2) ?? 2 why is it insmod'ing ext2 when / is an ext3 filesystem ? Any help greatly appreciated. I'm going to have to reboot this thing someday, and I'd like to know how to fix this. more importantly, why does grub not know that it's broken ??!! Thanks, Brian p.s. hugs and kisses to whoever added busybox to the failed to find root disk recovery. that's really cool. helped me get going because I wasn't exactly sure which device was root. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

The Packages file contains multiple cryptographically-secure hashes of each binary package available from that archive/repository and (at least) one of these hashes is verified after download but before installation. The Sources file is similarly signed and provides hashes for the source packages available from that archive/repository. The official installation media are each singed and hashed in a cryptographically-secure manner, but you have to verify those manually. The question that should be asked is: How can I verify the checksums of the kmuto images with cryptographic signatures that can be traced back to a trusted key from the debian keyring? (Unfortunately I do not know the answer; I cannot find any signature whatsoever for the checksums.) Good question. I don't know how to verify the installation media. Assuming it uses the standard apt and normal repositories, all the packages installed during installation will be verified, and the archive/repository must be signed by a GPG key in the installation media's apt keyring. -- Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. ,= ,-_-. =. b...@iguanasuicide.net ((_/)o o(\_)) ICQ: 514984 YM/AIM: DaTwinkDaddy `-'(. .)`-' http://iguanasuicide.net/\_/ signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.

Problem connecting to VNC server
Hi all! Some time ago I have been using x11vnc and xvncviewer in Debian GNU/Linux Lenny without problems. But today, after connecting to the server, I noticed that after moving the mouse and release it, this is positioned immediately in the upper left corner without giving me time to operate properly with the mouse. I was trying tightvncserver and it does not exhibit this problem, but the idea is to share a session and I have open. In case it helps, I'm noticing in /var/log/Xorg.0.log that there is a line saying SetGrabKeysState - enabled after logon in the remote machine and the next two lines after logoff: SetClientVersion: 0 9 SetGrabKeysState - disabled Any idea what could be the problem?
