/dev/dsp missing gnome applet volume control complaining
Hey gang, I'm running sarge on an ibm laptop T40 from emperorlinux. I just upgraded the empkernel to 2.6.12 which got lots of things working which I had broken trying to fiddle with sound on my own. Later, when I tried to get the cdrom player working under gnome: /usr/bin/gnome-cd but had weak or no sound.

Re: OpenOffice won't print anymore

I guess I shot myself in the foot by taking the maintainers/developers config file rather than keeping my own. I also found out how to funnel a postscript file thru the print que unscathed and this fixed my crisp editor printing problems where the landscape options inside the postscript file where being overridden by setting up the print command on crisp like so: | lpr -o raw So it looks like my printing woe's are behind me.

Yes, it's an apt-get thing. The command apt-get update updates the local package listings, and apt-get upgrade will upgrade any packages where newer versions are available. This should be quite similar to what you do with dselect. And then, there's apt-get dist-upgrade, that is a lot more thorough and smarter with dependency handling, but only needed when you upgrade your debian version, like woody - sarge. Or so I thought until a few days ago. As it turned out, I had to call a dist-upgrade to get the current version of both cups and OOo. But lo and behold, printing now works again. As a side note: I never got very fond of dselect. For normal system maintenance, apt-get update/upgrade is all you need (plus apt-get offers a download-only option I find very useful); as a package browser, someone recommended aptitude which I now like very much.

Re: loading support for 2 ethernet cards
Yeah, it's a bit unclear at first. What you want to do is put the information on the append line, like this: append=mem=96M ether=10,0x300,eth0 ether=11,0x2e0,eth1 I'd recommend you put in the real values rather than 0,0 - that enables autoprobing and let's face it, you do want to know which interface is which, don't you?

Hello Joost and thanks for the reply. I've been tinkering with dselect and I think I've figured out enough to get it to do what it can for me..as far as that goes.

Was that a kernel you brewed yourself with kernel-package? Then it probably wasn't mentioned in a Packages file. How would dselect know about your package then? It's one from Herbert Xu that's not showing up in stable or bo-update: http://cgi.debian.org/www-master/debian.org/Packages/unstable/devel/kernel-source-2.0.33.html not sure why it's in unstable/devel since it looks like a stable (even number) release. once I had the .deb file downloaded I cd'ed to that directory as su and ran dpkg -i ./*.deb and I had my stable sources installed. then I did make menuconfig in the new sources directory tree then I did, make-kpkg kernel-image then edited lilo.conf then cd'ed to /usr/src where the new compiled kernel package .deb file was and ran dpkg -i *.deb and bingo I had a lean mean tuned kernel (also downloaded the latest 3com driver source from Donald Becker and put that in the source tree before compilation, 3c59x.c). Dselect's standard way of getting to know what packages are available in an archive is to run dpkg --update-avail on the Packages file that comes with the archive. You could have made a Packages file yourself, with dpkg-scanpackages and put that in a DIY archive and use it with dselect (making a custom archive). You'll have to make an override file too, to get dpkg-scanpackages to add sections to the packages entries in the Packages file. You can find examples in the ftp.debian.org /debian/indices/ directory. Now we're getting somewhere! I'm going to have to print this one and read and think awhile! Thanks hgh Or (not using an archive at all) you could have used dpkg --avail custom-kernel.deb. I'm afraid you'd have to put the .deb on a floppy to use it with dselect, because that's the only way it knows how to deal with a non-archive. In this simple case, dpkg -i by hand is more convinient of course. so my question remains, what are the steps? Another solution is to build a package with dependencies on all the packages you want to install. Create an archive that contains that package, the packages it depends on and packages that those depend on. Since you want to build a firewall, you'll probably want to put in a _lot_ of conflicts as well ;-). Use dpkg-scanpackages to generate a Packages file. Burn it on a cd or put it on your ftp site and it should work fine with dselect and deity. If you're really serious about creating your own cd, then dselect is definately the way to go.

It's one from Herbert Xu that's not showing up in stable or bo-update: http://cgi.debian.org/www-master/debian.org/Packages/unstable/devel/kernel-source-2.0.33.html not sure why it's in unstable/devel since it looks like a stable (even number) release. Stable and unstable kernel releases have nothing to do with stable and unstable debian distribution trees. The Debian unstable tree always has stable kernels for instance. The stable and unstable debian distribution tree have different Packages files though. Since the kernel included with stable has no major bugs that needed to be fixed, it hasn't been changed in the bo tree and neither in bo's Packages file. Maybe that explains why you didn't see it; you're looking at the Packages file from bo. What would point dselect at this particular kernel then? (2.0.33) unstable?

You could have made a Packages file yourself, with dpkg-scanpackages and put that in a DIY archive and use it with dselect (making a custom archive). You'll have to make an override file too, to get dpkg-scanpackages to add sections to the packages entries in the Packages file. You can find examples in the ftp.debian.org /debian/indices/ directory. Is override.bo.gz the example you refer to?

Re: kernel-source-2.0.33
Well I thought this was itor am I mistaken, I just didn't understand why dselect couldn't track it down: http://cgi.debian.org/www-master/debian.org/Packages/unstable/devel/kernel-source-2.0.33.html Package: kernel-source-2.0.33 2.0.33-3 Linux kernel source. This package provides the source code for the Linux kernel, as well as the scripts that maintain the symbolic link /usr/src/linux). This also contains everything in the package kernel-headers-2.0.33, and thus if you install kernel-source-2.0.33 you do not also need to install kernel-headers-2.0.33. You may configure the kernel to your setup by typing make config and following instructions, but you could get ncursesX.X-dev and tk4X-dev and try make menuconfig for a jazzier, and easier to use interface. Also, on intel platforms, you may wish to get bin86 (if you wish to compile the kernel sources, that is.) Other packages related to kernel-source-2.0.33: = required = recommended = suggested binutils The GNU assembler, linker and binary utilities. libc5-dbg The Linux C library version 5 (debug files). or libc6-dev The GNU C library version 2 (development files). gcc The GNU C compiler. ncurses3.4-dev Video terminal manipulation - Developer's libraries and docs. tk4.2-dev The Tk toolkit for TCL and X11 v4.2 - Development Package. or tk8.0-dev The Tk toolkit for TCL and X11 v8.0 - Development Package. or tkstep4.2-dev The NEXTSTEP(tm)-like version of the Tk toolkit - Development. or tkstep8.0-dev The NEXTSTEP(tm)-like version of the Tk toolkit - Development.
