Re: Creer un point d'acces wifi

2010-07-24 Thread Le poulpe qui bloppe !
Merci des informations, mais je trouve ca incroyable de rester aussi
dependant d'un hardware.

Bon, je vais donc faire des recherches sur les petites annonces
d'occasion pour trouver un chip atheros alors.
Si vous avez des conseils sur un modele particulier...

Néanmoins, si quelqu'un arrive a faire un point d'acces sous linux
sans passer par madwifi, je suis interessé par la conf, parcequ'un
jour faudra bien arriver a gerrer du wifi sans madwifi :P

Bonne journée

 Bonsoir,

 j'ai précisement une carte BCM4311 sur mon portable mais je n'ai jamais
 réussi à la passer en mode master. J'utilise aussi b43-fwcutter (qui
 marche plutôt bien pour l'utilisation en tant que client).

 A mon avis il faut t'orienter vers une autre carte wifi.

Flashplayer affiche des boites grises [Résolu]

2010-07-24 Thread Courrier Debian
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

2010-07-24 Thread Thierry B
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?

Merci :-)

rsnapshot ?

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

Je crois que ça reviendrait au même, mais sans consommer autant de
place.

Tu gardes l'avantage des backup totaux/incrémentiels (un total le WE

Ca marche aussi pour w$ (avec un chtit exe de rsync), interface web
en louchebem, poss de lancer un backup n'importe quand par cette I/F,

De tous les pgms de backup que j'ai eu l'occasion de tester (non-dédiés

Duplicity is still in Beta. 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.

The current stable release is 0.6.08b, released March 11, 2010.
 

Sans compter que je n'aime pas les systèmes qui font une archive (ou un
fichier-disque): malgré les pgms de récup', les chances de tout perdre
restent relativement élevées.


Mais c'est plus efficace pour la taille.


Faux: un symblink c'est 8 byte, difficile de faire moins.


En plus ça permet de chiffrer la sauvegarde.


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.)

Egalement, la doc dit très clairement que le tar est compressé après
coup, ce qui revient à mes préoccupations du 1er email: que se passe-t'il
en cas de PB et de non-récupération d'un tar *compressé*?!

Swap al principio o al final del disco duro?

Hola a todos.

Tengo una curiosidad sobre donde colocar el swap. Una gente me han dicho que
mejor ponerlo en la parte final del disco duro, para que no incordie, otros
me dicen que mejor ponerlo al principio, porque es más rápido que la parte
del final de disco duro. Otros me dicen que da igual, que lo que se gana por
un lado de pierde por el otro. Yo tengo un disco duro nuevo, se tipo SATA-2,
y quisiera saber por qué es mejor ponerlo al principio o al final del disco

Pues yo lo pongo siempre al principio, pero por manías de orden, más que

Con el hardware actual y para un uso estándar, no creo que notes ninguna

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.

Hola Francisco. Buen día. Tal como dijo Camaleón en su post que nos

swap al final o en cualquier otro sitio del HD con el hardware de hoy
día. Tiempo atrás he probado esto que preguntas y, por mi humilde
experiencia, y tal como te dije anteriormente, he llegado a la
conclusión de que no hay una posición específica que pueda decirse:

 Hola a todos.
 
 Tengo una curiosidad sobre donde colocar el swap. Una gente me han
 dicho que mejor ponerlo en la parte final del disco duro, para que no
 incordie, otros me dicen que mejor ponerlo al principio, porque es
 más rápido que la parte del final de disco duro. Otros me dicen que
 da igual, que lo que se gana por un lado de pierde por el otro. Yo
 tengo un disco duro nuevo, se tipo SATA-2, y quisiera saber por qué
 es mejor ponerlo al principio o al final del disco duro.

¡Qué más da!. En mi caso lo creo en un volumen LVM, pero cuando
no usaba LVM lo ponía al final, porque en el principio estaba la
partición '/boot' para que el gestor de arranque no tuviera problemas.

Mi portatil tiene ya un par de años pero el almacenamiento es SSD.

# echo 3  /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
# dd if=Pitch\ Black\(2000\).720P.BRRip.H264.ResourceRG\ by\ Dusty.mp4

4195620+1 records out
2148157865 bytes (2.1 GB) copied, 20.9344 s, 103 MB/s

Creo que no está tan mal, además no tienen ninguna optimización especial, ni
alineación de bloques, ni opciones especiales para ssd en el sistema de
ficheros.

Sin duda el lugar más óptimo para poner la swap es en ninguna parte :)

Necesitas swap si quieres hibernar el equipo. Concretamente, la misma

swap sería que cuanta más ram añadas, más swap necesitas ;-P

si pones swap en un ssd, vete despidiendo de él, el tiempo de vida se 
recorta tremendamente si el sistema lo llega a usar continuamente. De 
hecho, a las instalaciones de maquinaria que hacemos en el trabajo les 
quitamos el swap y quedan sólo con 512 MB de RAM, suficiente para el 
proceso.


Por otro lado, he probado lo mismo en mi PC, SSD sin swap y con 4 GB de 
RAM, nunca me ha dado ningun problema :)


Para no desvirtuar, Francisco, cualquier optimización que hagas debe ser 
en función a tus requerimientos, si la vas a usar para tu casa, los 
microsegundos que ganes los vas a perder en lo que piensas qué vas a

They are not acknowledged. A more official[1] way to install lenny on 
ext4 that I can think of would be to follow the procedure for installing 
unstable from the business-card image[2] and select stable instead of 
unstable. You will also have to install a newer kernel from 
backports.org, which is also not official yet or compile your own 
kernel.

[1] in quotes, because it involves the alpha installer
[2] http://www.debian.org/CD/faq/#unstable-images

There is also the option of creating your ext4 partitions, install with 
debootstrap and then install a newer kernel (from backports or your 
own).

/etc/init.d/functions is missing.
How / where to grab it ?

seems like it is a Mandrake file, I don't have that file on my  
Debian Lenny System



http://openskill.info/infobox.php?ID=1081
Mandrake
/etc/init.d/rc.sysinit Large script, launched directly by init, that sets and
executes all the system initialization functions. It sources configuration
files in /etc/sysconfig/*) where user (and configuration tools) define
various system settings
/etc/init.d/functions General purpose functions used by every system script



Indeed the script I was referring is a not a Debian script.
There is no /etc/init.d/functions file implemented in the Debian distro.

So solved.

 Same here (weekly ISO).

 No network adapter detection neither ext3/ext4/reiserfs/jfs/xfs

 BTW, netinstall (~180 MiB.) works fine.



 Maybe it's your network cards ~ perhaps a specific model missing
 drivers? I was able to get it to work on both Xen and VMWare Fusion.  We
 don't slipstream our drivers and we were using unmodified kernels.

Dunno but...

1/ I'm installing Squeeze in VM (virtualbox) so network card is a plain 
generic one (Intel gigabit).

2/ Having no ext3/ext4 option for disk formatting is not a good thing.

3/ Netinstall ISO has no problem at all with these two issues.

That will stop debug level messages from the mail system. If you want to

 gnome or rather the software used by OP. I do not see it is gnome related (and
 kile sounds to me rather kedish than gnomish.)
What about kile? The question of the OP was the Save as... option in
iceweasel/icedove, which indeed opens the gnome save file-box (or
whatever it is named). This box is not so convenient, as the OP has
explained. It is certainly not the KDE Save file-box, as that one does

BTW, netinstall (~180 MiB.) works fine.




Maybe it's your network cards ~ perhaps a specific model missing
drivers? I was able to get it to work on both Xen and VMWare Fusion.  We
don't slipstream our drivers and we were using unmodified kernels.


Dunno but...

1/ I'm installing Squeeze in VM (virtualbox) so network card is a plain
generic one (Intel gigabit).

2/ Having no ext3/ext4 option for disk formatting is not a good thing.

3/ Netinstall ISO has no problem at all with these two issues.



Net install is difficult for me, and getting a daily build is both 
futile and impossible.  Futile because the i386 iso has been pants for 
weeks, impossible for the same reason I can't use netinst:  I have 
terrible access to internet, including a data cap.

Yep, and that leaves squeeze in a kind of limbo (uninstallable state if 
you start from scratch), which is strange, taking that it will be 
released very soon :-?

I finally got installed from net image (not without headheaches -neither 
GRUB legacy nor GRUB2 cannot be installed at all, I dunno why; ReiserFS 
is a bit hidden -one has to load the partman modules on start-) but it 
was harder than I thought.

I think you'll have to wait until someone checks and repairs that CD ISO 
image. 

OTOH, I couldn't find any daily CD ISO images for testing, just multi-
arch CD images but seems to be similar to netinst :-?

 That will stop debug level messages from the mail system. If you want to

 mail.none. (The clue is in the authpriv entry.)

Debug and higher.

If you don't like any of the suggestions, you have four choices:

1) Do nothing, use a filing system which is used in the basic Lenny 
installation and wait for Squeeze to become Stable.

2) Use Squeeze; it is apparently fairly stable now.

3) Try a backported kernel.  But that is no more official than Kenshi Muto's 
installer.  (I am not clear what you mean by official.)

4) Use a different distro which already supports Ext 4.

Or you could still always do as has been suggested several times: use Kenshi 
Muto's installer.

unwanted repeated messages on Lenny laptop

2010-07-24 Thread hugo vanwoerkom

Hi,

I did a net-install of Lenny on an Acer laptop.
All went well, took 2hr 23min to install, not bad, found the Telmex 
Infinitum network with DHCP.

I took the defaults so now I am running Gnome.

The connection is thru a 2Wire wireless gateway that I have connected to 
eth0, which you get when you subscribe to Telmex Infinitum, together 
with the warning that they don't support Linux.


However...

Every minute these mesages appears on the active VT (and in syslog), 
which screws up the fullscreen app like mc that you might be running there:


Jul 24 11:26:25 debian NetworkManager: WARN

it to access the unmentionable o/s.

Firmware here does not mean the BIOS or similar stuff already present in

needed to activate and/or operate certain devices (the wireless card in 
your case).

IIRC in this particular case the firmware files are actually extracted

wifi gets disconnected frequently

2010-07-24 Thread Kurian Thayil
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:

You won't be messing with the firmware on the laptop; despite its  
name, the firmware is just a software file that gets loaded into the  
... uhm ... oh, well, somewhere.


If you're reluctant to do that, you could disable those messages in  
various ways ...
For example, by disabling the wireless card in your BIOS, if such  
option exists.

Or by disabling (or even uninstalling) Network Manager.
Or by configuring your wireless interface in /etc/network/interfaces in  
such a way that NetworkManager won't mess with it (setting it to manual  
or something along the line).
But there are surely many other ways, of which actually loading the  
firmware is certainly not the worst ...

  partitions and e2fsck reported all the partitions clean.  
  However, the
  result of running dosfslabel /dev/hda1 results in the

  I have copied everything on /dev/hda1 and /dev/hda5 on to a backup drive
  and am considering a complete reformat of /dev/hda.
 
I started by using parted to delete hda5 (logical), hda2 (extended) and
then hda1 (primary). I then used commands of the form 

parted -a opt /dev/hda primary 32.3kB 1999MB

to restore the partitions.  They still did not end on cylinder
boundries.  Deleted the partitions again and tried -a min.  They still
did not end on cylinder boundries.  Deleted the partitions again and
tried -a cylinder.  They still did not end on cylinder boundries.
Deleted the partitions again, switched to fdisk and specified the
partition sizes by cylinders.  They still do not end on cylinder
boundries.  Switched to gparted and made the partition file types ext3.

Rebooted - no problems. Note: The system booting from /dev/hda.  The
script lilo wrote in the mbr has not been effected by the changes listed
above.

Ran dosfslabel /dev/hda1.  The reponse was: Logical sector size
is zero.  Repeated this for each partition on each of my hard drives
with the same result.

Disconnected every usb device attache to my system.

Trouble compiling generic kernel

2010-07-24 Thread Curt Howland
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Hi. Lenny, up to date with security and backports.

I pulled down 2.6.35-rc6.tar.bz2 from kernel.org, and would like to 
try compiling it to see what's Coming Soon To A Disto Near Me.

Its been about 9 years since the last time I compiled a kernel, but 
I'm having trouble I didn't have then. For some reason, none of 
the make things that I've used in the past are working now:

===
$ make xconfig
  CHECK   qt
*
* Unable to find the QT3 installation. Please make sure that
* the QT3 development package is correctly installed and
* either install pkg-config or set the QTDIR environment
* variable to the correct location.
*
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `scripts/kconfig/.tmp_qtcheck', 
needed by `scripts/kconfig/qconf.o'.  Stop.
make: *** [xconfig] Error 2
===
===
$ make menuconfig
 *** Unable to find the ncurses libraries or the
 *** required header files.
 *** 'make menuconfig' requires the ncurses libraries.
 ***
 *** Install ncurses (ncurses-devel) and try again.
 ***
make[1]: *** [scripts/kconfig/dochecklxdialog] Error 1
make: *** [menuconfig] Error 2
===
===
$ make gconfig
*
* Unable to find the GTK+ installation. Please make sure that
* the GTK+ 2.0 development package is correctly installed...
* You need gtk+-2.0, glib-2.0 and libglade-2.0.
*
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `scripts/kconfig/.tmp_gtkcheck', 
needed by `scripts/kconfig/gconf.o'.  Stop.
make: *** [gconfig] Error 2
===

make config did work, but working through everything in text is 
enough to make a sane person INSANE.

I was surprised with the failure of menuconfig, since I have all of 
ncurses installed and the ncurses-devel suggestion isn't a Debian 
package name anyway.

Suggestions?

 Hi. Lenny, up to date with security and backports.

 I pulled down 2.6.35-rc6.tar.bz2 from kernel.org, and would like to 
 try compiling it to see what's Coming Soon To A Disto Near Me.

 Its been about 9 years since the last time I compiled a kernel, but 
 I'm having trouble I didn't have then. For some reason, none of 
 the make things that I've used in the past are working now:

This is due to missing development packages.

 make config did work, but working through everything in text is 
 enough to make a sane person INSANE.

Yes, this is only for people who are or want to become crazy.

 I was surprised with the failure of menuconfig, since I have all of 
 ncurses installed and the ncurses-devel suggestion isn't a Debian 
 package name anyway.

The -devel namespace comes from Red Hat based distributions, in Debian
development packages always end in -dev and very often begin with lib.

 Suggestions?

Install libncurses5-dev and use make menuconfig or make nconfig (the
latter is new in 2.6.35).

unbelievable, #...@%%!! grub breaks for me AGAIN

2010-07-24 Thread briand

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.

   However, the

   Differences: (offset:original/backup)

 I started by using parted to delete hda5 (logical), hda2 (extended) and
 then hda1 (primary). I then used commands of the form 
 
 parted -a opt /dev/hda primary 32.3kB 1999MB
 
 to restore the partitions.  They still did not end on cylinder
 boundries.  Deleted the partitions again and tried -a min.  They still
 did not end on cylinder boundries.  Deleted the partitions again and
 tried -a cylinder.  They still did not end on cylinder boundries.
 Deleted the partitions again, switched to fdisk and specified the
 partition sizes by cylinders.  They still do not end on cylinder
 boundries.  Switched to gparted and made the partition file types ext3.
 
 Rebooted - no problems. Note: The system booting from /dev/hda.  The
 script lilo wrote in the mbr has not been effected by the changes listed
 above.
 
 Ran dosfslabel /dev/hda1.  The reponse was: Logical sector size
 is zero.  Repeated this for each partition on each of my hard drives
 with the same result.

I see the same for my partitions, except for /dev/hda1 where I get Seek
to 60011609600:Invalid argument. It should not really matter, in all
all cases an error is returned, so dosfslabel fails. This does not
surprise me for ext3 partitions; I still think it is a mistake that the
postinst script of linux-base runs dosfslabel on the partition.

 Disconnected every usb device attache to my system.
 
 Ran aptitude -f install.  The result:

[...]

Erase all references to vfat filesystems (see Virgo Pärna's suggestion)
and to removable devices from your /etc/fstab; make sure that mount
only lists your built-in hard drives. If the installation of linux-base
still fails after that then it is probably time to file a bug against
the package (after carefully checking out the existing reports).

That's not true.

Long ago, the secure-apt project took this issue into account.  The Packages 
file is GPG signed and this signature is verified during each (aptitude 
update), even during installation.  (Although, I have seen some install 
methods subvert this check...)

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.

Problem connecting to VNC server

2010-07-24 Thread Daniel Bareiro
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?

Thanks in advance for your reply.

Regards,
Daniel

Ah yes.  I should have noticed that you're probably using ssh.

Try installing sshpass instead of using expect.  When rsync sees

Setting CONCURRENCY_LEVEL=4 in your user environment should fix this, at
least, it used to.  From the bash command line, for the current session only:

export CONCURRENCY_LEVEL=4

To make it permanent you need to edit /home/[user]/.bash_profile and append:

 If you're reluctant to do that, you could disable those messages in  
 various ways ...
 For example, by disabling the wireless card in your BIOS, if such  
 option exists.
 Or by disabling (or even uninstalling) Network Manager.
 Or by configuring your wireless interface in /etc/network/interfaces in  
 such a way that NetworkManager won't mess with it (setting it to manual  
 or something along the line).
 But there are surely many other ways, of which actually loading the  
 firmware is certainly not the worst ...

Blacklist the module (b43 or similar).

 If you regularly do your kernel work while logged on as root, you'd need to
 append it to /root/.bashrc or /root/.profile

And assuming you're using kernel-package, from its manpage:

  -j  number Set the environment variable CONCURRENCY_LEVEL to 
number.

Re: Lenny, rsyslog: eliminate mail logging going to both syslog and mail.log

 What do I need to modify in /etc/rsyslog.conf to stop mail system logging

 going into /var/log/syslog?  Currently it goes to both /var/log/mail.log and
 to /var/log/syslog.

 I'm guessing it might have to do with the leading wildcard here:

 *.*;auth,authpriv.none  -/var/log/syslog

 IIRC
 *.*;!mail.debug;auth,authpriv.none  -/var/log/syslog
 
 That will stop debug level messages from the mail system. If you want to
 be sure of getting NO mail messages in syslog, then you could use
 mail.none. (The clue is in the authpriv entry.)

Thanks guys.  Interesting that the only two folks to respond to my question
are both named Tom.  (queue Twilight Zone music)  Furie's suggestion did the
trick.

By doing this, will I lose any mail related logging?  Anything worth a darn?
I've been running a Debian+Postfix MX for 5 years and I can't recall ever
searching /var/log/syslog for mail related info, but strictly the mail.* logs.
 To me the entries in syslog are just been duplicate junk, hence my thread.
Any downsides to this at all?  Will it break pflogsumm?  I've not looked at
the code so I don't know if it parses syslog or mail.log.

I am using Squeeze and my Wifi link in my Laptop (Acer 5583 Series) gets

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:

Is there any kind of wireless encryption involved? WPA-supplicant
running in the background? IIRC network-manager activates wpa-supplicant
by default -even if there is no wireless interface- and i remember
having seen similar behaviour caused by wpa-supplicant and TKIP/AES
mismatch between AP and client.



What was your solution?
