Re: [euro] suite...

Dans kterm et xterm ma police est bien iso8859-15 car le euro-test m'affiche bien l'euro, mais je n'arrive pas à le taper, cela me donne un point d'interrogation. Par contre le cent marche bien (altgr+c). de plus si je tape altgr+e dans xev, je vois bien le symbole euro qui s'affiche avec EuroSign. J'ai essayé de remplacer par currency, mais ca ne marche pas mieux (encore moins bien avec xev qui ne m'affiche plus rien). Remplacer « EuroSign » par « currency » ne marche pas dans les version actuelles de X11. Les X11 récents n'acceptent le symbole « EuroSign » que si le jeu de caractère utilisé pour l'affichage comporte ce caractère, ce qui est le cas de ISO-8859-15. De même « currency » ne pourra pas être affiché avec une police déclarée comme police ISO-8859-15, qui ne comporte pas ce caractère. Si xev indique « EuroSign » pour AltGr+e, c'est à priori que le clavier est bien paramétré. Ce qui laisserait penser qu'il s'agit juste d'un problème d'affichage. Il est possible que xterm utilise pour l'affichage une police ISO-8859-15 incorrectement déclarée comme police ISO-8859-1. Autrement dit, le codage indiquée pour cette police dans X11 est ISO-8859-1, mais les caractères de cette police correspondent à ISO-8859-15. Dans un tel cas, utiliser AltGr+e sur le clavier enverra le symbole « EuroSign » à xterm, qui ne l'affichera pas, car il ne peut afficher un caractère non présent dans la police en cours. Le programme « euro-test » par contre utilise directement le code numérique du caractère. Si la police est déclarée comme ISO-8859-1, ce code sera traduit en symbole « currency », et affichera le caractère correspondant du je de caractères utilisé. Si tel est le cas, il suffit de paramétrer explicitement xterm pour utiliser une police ISO-8859-15 (cf. le debian-euro-support HOWTO, présent dans /usr/share/doc/euro-support).

Re: some questions
Le 2000-08-02 11:28:52 +0300, Tzafrir Cohen écrivait : 1. When using a network adapter whose driver is compiled as a module - where does this module get loaded? I currently added a simple modprobe line to /etc/init.d/networking , but there has to be a better way. On RedHat loading this module is done by the ifup script. During the boot sequence, they are loaded by /etc/init.d/modutils, which is started during the single user mode. To configure this, use modconf. From modconf, load your module with the correct parameters (if any). Modconf will save the modules parameters, and ensure it is loaded every time your systems is started. (To be precise, the module name will be added to /etc/modules, the parameters will be saved to /etc/modutils/module-name, and update-modules will be used to rebuild the /etc/modules.conf file). 4. manipulating rc?.d On RedHat there's a simple program called chkconfig for simple manipulations of the symlinks in the rc?.d directories. It gets its default values from some lines in the init.d scrip itself and has --add and --remove . The update-rc.d seems to be only useful for package installation and package removal. I can always change those symlinks manually, but this can be a bit erro-prone. You can use the file-rc package . It will replace the multiple rc?.d directories and symlinks by a single file you can edit with a text editor ( /etc/runlevel.conf ). 5. Single-user mode loads a whole bunch of stuff that are not really needed. What is the recomended way to load failsafe defaults? Using a floppy? Maybe you need to remove some packages you do not use ? Looking at what is launched in single user mode here, I do not really see a lot of unwanted stuff. Hope it helps. -- Jean-Philippe Guérard

Now coming to my real question: how interchangeble are the installations done via dpkg/dselect and 'normal' installations via tarballs? I would like to keep dependency information and such, and an updated list of installed software for dselect. The installation via a tarball will lose all dependency information. This software will be completely ignored by dpkg/dselect, and might get overwritten at some points. To use non-debian packages, you might want to look at alien to convert RPM or other packages format to DEB. It will enable you to still manage the package using dselect.

Re: What sends IGMP packets?

First, 224.0.0.1 is in the private range of multicast addresses[1] (IIRC) so something must be incorrectly configured. Second, I can't find the program responsible for sending these packages. BTW: IGMP is Internet Group Management Protocol according to /etc/protocols. [1] Weird thing is, the 224.0.0.1 address resolves to ALL-SYSTEMS.MCAST.NET according to nslookup. Is that really correct? As far as I know, there is nothing wrong. Your kernel must have been compiled with multicast support, and it is trying to subscribe to the general multicast group. I believe the multicast RFC(s) mandates this. Win9x clients do this also. To get rid of these packets, just compile your kernel without the multicast option. Hope it helps. -- Jean-Philippe Guérard

In both cases, a library of that name was there, so I suspect this is some sort of version-compatibility problem. Assuming you have Hamm installed, and you have downloaded the supported version of Netscape for Linux from the Netscape web site (the supported version being the libc5 version, I believe), you need to do the following : * Install the libc5 and xlib6 (and also probably xpm4.7) packages from Opt./oldlibs. (This should fix the complaints about librairies not found). * Use the Netscape installer (from contrib) to install netscape. To do this, you need to copy you Netscape binary to /tmp/, and probably to rename it a bit for the installer to recognise it). The first step should be enough to solve the issue. The second is the clean recommended way to do the installation, but is not mandatory (I believe). Hope it helps.
