After that, on fsck massive filesytem corruption, I think some bad sectors were marked (the disks are good). The solution for now for me is to use a uniprocessor kernel or a smp kernel on the mboard's controller (ata33) ;(... hope this helps, dragos

does 2.4.17-rc2 kernel build with latest woody binutils?
I have 2 disks on the motherboard controller (440bx); installed kernel-image-2.4.16, which saw the hpt370 controller I have; now I want to move the disks on that controller, but it seems that the debian standard kernel doesn't have support for 'boot offboard chipsets first' compiled in (that would allow me to append ide=reverse at bootup); which leads me to compiling my own kernel; but I can't because of the binutils (more exactly because of the kernel). what options do I have? I will happily try 2.4.17-rc2 if it works... any useful suggestions appreciated. dragos

Additionally if you visit http://xtiming.sf.net/ you can calculate precise modelines for all common video resolutions (384x288 etc.) That way that closest video mode will actually be truly full screen. At least it works wonders for me :) what I would like to ask you is how do I compile mplayer with gui support? I compiled it from source (0.50), but when I start it it tells me it's not compiled with gui support; isn't it autodetected? and by the way, both mplayer and avifile after ./configure presents me the autodetected compile options; both say mga_vid no, although I have an matrox G400 card; isn't mga_vid related to that? configure for both programs looks for /dev/mga_vid; how do I create that? thanks, dragos

First, get a newer version from the mplayer cvs. It'll help things out a lot.. especially with the gui issue. I don't think it's default to install the gui.. so you'll have to specify in the ./configure --blah --guioption --etc. Same deal for playing encrypted dvd's (though I like ogle-gui better for that). ./configure just looks for supported drivers on your system. Your card may handle mga_vid, but if you don't have the driver your linux system has no idea how to access that function on the card. Grab the mga development libraries with apt/dselect and you're set. Same goes for sdl and all those other fun outputs.. Have a close look at what ./configure outputs when you run it without options and then go apt-get whatever packages you want and it doesn't find -- remember to grab the libsomething-dev, not just libsomething. cheers, Matt thanks, dragos

You can get the avifile packages from unstable and install them manually or simply get them with apt-get (what I do): - add unstable methods to /etc/apt/sources.list - set your /etc/apt/preferences like this: Package: * Pin: release a=stable Pin-Priority: 900 Package: * Pin: release o=unstable Pin-Priority: -10 - apt-get update - apt-get install avifile-player libavifile0.6 - comment out added methods for unstable in sources.list - apt-get update (last two, so you do not update all your packages by dselect) However, then you still need the codecs files ... This works great for me! Bye, Steffen thank you all. I took avifile source and compiled it.

I have had troubles with this too. Reading the drivers-1.bin from the original distribution (less drivers-1.bin) says: Floppy split 0.1 at the beginning. This means that the floppy does not contain a filesystem, but just raw data. I have never found out which program is used to split a file to floppy's. Perhaps someone on this lists know... As an alternative to this I always did the following: - put the harddisk in another computer, partition it and format the disk with an ext2 fs. - copy the drivers.tgz and the base2_2.tgz (hmm, there used to be a base file for Potato) to the new disk - put the harddisk back into the new computer and boot up the installation proces with floppys - when it asks for the drivers.tgz, point it to the mounted partition note: you are able to have command line acces on the second console Succes, Sebastiaan hello, Sebastiaan I tried untarring directly from floppy (tar xzvf /dev/fd0 with driver-1 floppy in the drive; it doesn't work) to get a clue about how it's done.

You're apparently having problems with a program or system configuration issue, but you've provided far from enough information to be able to adequately address or resolve the issue. Not true, as it happens, if you've been following debian-boot, in which case the words malformed release file raise a big red flag. There's a bug currently filed against boot-floppies about this (#121724). I'm not a boot guru, but my impression from the various threads about this is that there's a bug in debootstrap whereby, if you give it the wrong URL for the archive - perhaps a broken mirror - on the first attempt, it'll never redownload it. Unfortunately the only way to work around this at the moment, as far as I know, is to get the archive URL right on the first attempt. Making sure that $URL/dists/woody/Release exists before you do the installation is a good start. If you get it wrong you have to start again and reformat the filesystem when the installer offers that to you. Naturally I hope and imagine that this'll be fixed before release. This could all be wrong, incidentally: I'm just collating what I've heard and passing it on. If it turns out to be something else, please follow up so that the list archives aren't too misleading. hello, it seems you are right; I got it wrong first time, and the only thing that resolved the issue was starting again (along with a reformat) dragos

ok now I have a working configuration for postfix+procmail+maildir:
for postfix, in main.cf:
mailbox_command = /usr/bin/procmail -a $EXTENSION
it tells postfix not to worry about local delivery, just give it to procmail
for procmail, in ~/.procmailrc:
PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin
MAILDIR=$HOME/Maildir
DEFAULT=$MAILDIR/
LOGFILE=$MAILDIR/procmail.log
LOCKFILE=$HOME/.lockmail
VERBOSE=off
LOGABSTRACT=off
I'll put .procmailrc in /etc/skel before I start creating users.
The next step for me is to install amavis-perl/amavisd, make postfix deliver
to amavis (mailbox_command = /usr/bin/amavis, or something alike), scan mails
for viruses, and deliver via procmail to maildir.
you can see that I'm not (yet) using procmail to filter mails.

your understanding of maildir is correct on the functional level.

okay, so you need to do one of the following:
recompile procmail to make it use maildir by default
ensure that all users have a .procmailrc file in their homedir, which
simply contains:
DEFAULT=$HOME/Maildir/
postfix has no say in this issue because it always delivers to amavis,
which always delivers to procmail.

I swear by those settings (I just copyed them from the previous install -same debian- where they worked -don't ask me what I've done then-); now at boot it sees the card,it tries to initialise it and gives me a bunch of errors that 'mss_io must be set, ...blah-blah...'; I log in, lsmod and it shows all the modules loaded (belive me I've seen the card working and I know that are all) OK, I ignore the errors, install xmms (libesd was installed before -maybe that's the problem?-), select output plugin esd AND IT JUST POPS UP THAT WINDOW that tells me to check if my sound card ...blah-blah.

thanks for your reply I didn't know I have to do that; but I made it to work under the same debian dist (after a lot of work) without doing that although I think I made a chmod on some /dev entries. I will try that, thanks again by the way I'm on the debian user list regards [seems to me like I have to read some newbie debian help :-) I thought I passed this stage :-( ] Cameron Matheson wrote: Hey, just making sure you didn't forget to add yourself to the audio group...

I swear by those settings (I just copyed them from the previous install -same debian- where they worked -don't ask me what I've done then-); now at boot it sees the card,it tries to initialise it and gives me a bunch of errors that 'mss_io must be set, ...blah-blah...'; I log in, lsmod and it shows all the modules loaded (belive me I've seen the card working and I know that are all) OK, I ignore the errors, install xmms (libesd was installed before -maybe that's the problem?-), select output plugin esd AND IT JUST POPS UP THAT WINDOW that tells me to check if my sound card ...blah-blah. Now, I'm new to debian, although not to linux. I was used to redhat and it allways autodetected it whithout no problem. Am I skipping something that's obvious, or am I doing something wrong?
