I don’t remember

ah, so just ranting now?

hackedbox, the bastard son of blackbox, lol

i went to standby came back and now my screen is darker how do i fix it? i also installed 915resolution a few sexonds ago seconds

might be that 915resolution messed up your gamma values

argh

you should give this command at the startup: xgamma -gamma 1.30 (or whatever value you prefer) put it into the .xsession file that way you make sure it’s always the value you like

I want to add a directory that contains modules, and depmod to be aware of it’s exsitance. How do I add a directory for depmod to scan for modules?

by putting it in your kernel module directory

i changed gamma its not that

Maybe it’s because the new drivers just make the screen look darker. this happened to me on Win once, but i fixed it by setting a way higher gamma value

depmod -b

dunno about you though :/

its not that crapsorz

lolsorz

hmm… don’t chicken out! was just’n idea… type you later guys, and tnx again!

any idea roughly how long an md active sync will take on a 36GB disk with 2.5GHz CPU and 2.5GB RAM?

cat /proc/mdstat iirc, it tells you

Hm. Is there any way I can prevent apt from upgrading the kernel and/or running grub?

remove the meat package meta!

haha I started wondering for a second there

*blush*

the kernel package itself?

hmm, not from what I can understand from it. it doesn’t say it’s syncing, but mdadm –detail does.

+meta

the meta package

yup, thanks

kernel updates use /etc/kernel-img.conf, which defaults to running grub

ohnos, its shadowcat !smack shadowcat

How do I disable dmraid in knoppix 5.x? I cannot mount my hard drive because it says its busy. This is because DMRAID is in use, help? dmraid -an does not work

!spank liable

ah, so I can edit that file and specify what I want it to do after kernel upgrades? or rather, what I don’t want it to do :p

yes.

thanks!

no, just remove the meta package and you wont get kernel upgrades unless you install them

well, the kernel upgrades can come in if they like, it’s the grub part which is scaring me

You can start fixing IT by fixing academia’s terrible lack of content in CS courses, grumble

I have to use dd to copy the boot sector from a working drive otherwise it all fails

eww

wouldn’t it be better to… fix grub?

and I mean - FAILS.

kernel upgrades don’t touch your boot sector if you’re using grub They just run update-grub, which edits /boot/grub/menu.lst to have an entry for the new kernel

ah. Just wanted to be sure. When is grub run, then? If I was able to identify the problem I’d fix it.

now i’m confused

only when you install grub

whats the actuall problem you have?

but I didn’t come up with a decent search term for a cursor flashing across the screen and grub printing a smley-face-character smiley*

reinstall grub

you honestly thought I havent tried that? :p

paste your menu.list and cat /proc/mounts

no luck, I’m afraid

this obviously isnt an ordinary install

tell us the way your harddisk is set up, what contoller what drives, etc

Why should menu.lst matter? When i copy the bootsector (bs=446 count=1), it works perfectly. hm… let me look up the motherboard data.

and what are you doing AFTER dd-ing the bootsector? how do you screw it up again?

who can help me install my ati display card?

what chip/card exactly?

by running grub.

why are you running grub then ?

because it makes no sense at all. thats why, and your menu list and mounts are the first step to seeing what may be going on

wols, RV350 (radeon 9600)

I am not. If you read the backlog, you would find me asking for help on how to *prevent* apt from ever running grub.

no it’s not. caushis problem manifests before menu.lst and mounts ever matter put grub on hold

Moin!

caushis?

do you want fglrx(proprietary) or the radeon driver(Free software)? cause his !tell ix about hold

wols, does it has difference?

yes

alright, I am putting it on hold. For that matter, I could even remove the meta kernel package, since I am compiling my own kernel.

I told you the differences

agreed, but explain to me why update-grub would rewrite mbr in the first place

kernel has nothing to do with your problem. at all it simply doesn’t

right

putting grub on hold isn’t going to stop it from being run if that is really what is happening

anyway, thanks!

why else would it run then? and who starts it?

right, so i want to see what he’s got in mounts to see wtf his sytem is

why else other than what?

its obviously non standard

grub is being run as part of updating the grub package?

user says running grub overwrites his MBR for some reason don’t run grub. so what will run grub except installing a new version of it?

why not just purge grub?

kinda hard to boo without a bootloder *boot

wols, i download official radeon driver ,use command”sudo ./ati-driver-installer-8.x.x.run –buildpkg debian/testing” to install it

why not tell us what kind of fucked up linking or whatever hes done

he said he’s not using grub to boot, he’s using legacy shit copied by hand rfom somewhere else boo. If you install proprietary drivers, the lobbyist win!

removing grub doesnt remove the mbr or even the /grub directory

we do not support this. at all. any problems with that: ask ati, not us. This is the fglrx driver btw, not the “radeon” driver

but it will remove update-grub, which he fears

yes update-grub isnt the problem though. i was actually agreeing with you on the removing grub bit seeing as ix wont paste any of his configs its all speculation to whats wrong

if he doesn’t actually run grub to boot, all bets are off and he better fsck off

how does cpu% returned by ps relates to real cpu usage on machines with multiple cpus ?

check your backlog, there was someone that had a burning question for you

yeah, he asked me to email him if I had advice for him, but he didn’t tell me about what

heh

obviously he needs advice how to present his problem. what else?

http://fosswire.com/2007/09/08/fix-a-frozen-system-with-the-magic-sysrq-keys/

i mean… when i see “98%” there, is it 98% of one cpu or of all the power ?

is that a question?

hi - I just created a VPS on a Hexonet.net account. cat /etc/debian_version says “3.1″, but when I try to do a dist-upgrade it ends up saying sid/lenny - I really would like it to be etch instead - what am I doing wrong?

show us the output of ‘apt-cache policy’ ; use a pastebin: /msg dpkg pastebin

What on earth does /usr/bin/open do?

it .. um .. opens stuff?

opens a tty err, opens application on tty

A new tty? On like vt7 if 1 through 6 are already used?

i would think it would baulk if 1-6 are used

yeah, it should be unused iirc

try and use all your tty’s up and tell us

What is the most fun 3D app in Debian unstable?

I asked because I’m going through another admin’s rc script

the cow screensaver

BTW, in answer to your earlier question, ‘neither’

I’d only ever seen open(1) on OS X before where it does something totally different.

amphi, Thanks for your feedback. I have installed the last compiz from http://download.tuxfamily.org/osrdebian/dists/unstable/compiz-fusion-git/index.html

that’s the repository of shame?

It works, but I have a problem with keyboard and mouse delay, in any windows manager,

hi

*window manager

amphi, yes

let’s say for some bogus reasons I installed libc from lenny, ran into all sorts of troubles (naturally) and aptitude reinstall won’t reinst the etch libc6. what are my options?

0 perhaps

amphi, I have tried failsave amphi, but I get the same problem amphi, keyboard and mouse events delay amphi, a lot of delay!

apart from reinstalling, you can try with aptitudes gui to install the previos version, or use =version or force the old libc6 with dpkg

will dpkg remove the old one?

yes

good, ill go with that i guess

is you use –force options

http://paste.lisp.org/display/47771

uh huh

you may well be fucked, but i guess it cant hurt to try

amphi, I desist. No way with compiz Is there any fun 3D app?

ah, it’s just libc6, no biggie

tuxracer neverball

tremulous

google earth?

of course

thanks liable DexterF twb I have something to do now

eh? why not? what video card do you have? it runs fine on my 32MB mobility radeon 7500

amphi, nVidia Corporation NV18 [GeForce4 MX 440 AGP 8x] (rev a2)

aptitude search ‘~sgames !~D~sgames’

thanks twb

hello. anyone using network-manager with gnome on sid?

amphi, It is working rightly for some 3D apps. I think it is rightly configured

compiz runs fine on that card? what chipset is that, r200?

yeah, rv200 according to man radeon

its going through lots of changes especially irt wireless. if its broken, check bts, and deal with it

that is on a ‘clean’ install. Running apt-get dist-upgrade messes up the installation

apt-get -d wont get the debs, says already latest version. how would I get the debs then?

water and a couple of other effects that I don’t care about don’t work

they are in /var/cache/apt/archives/

guess it’s the ‘testing’ part that isn’t good - just don’t now the way to tell 3.1 that it should upgrade to etch

IIRC I have an rv250, compiz runs as if there is no 3D acceleration at all

actually the new ones are there.

But stuff like tremulous and bzflag are playable oh, maybe you’re not using the Free driver?

[retry] does cpu usage percentage relate in any way to real cpu utilization of the smp machine? (if yes, how?)

ok, packages.debian.org

wouldn’t ‘cat /etc/debian_version’ return ’sarge’ if it was a normal stable release?

etch is stable

it would

current stable is etch

3d fine here on an rv250 with xorg 7.2. the 7.1 radeon module still has some glitches but works so far, too

I am; radeon/aiglx - fglrx doesn’t support this card at all (not that I was tempted by it in any case)

not when it was installed back then

I admit I didn’t try very hard to make compiz work After all, it’s still an occlusive WM when all is said and done

you appear to be using a sarge install disk from when it was an rc disk. paste your sources.list

I find it quite usable; wall, expo, and scale are handy

poncha / liable : I know would like to upgrade to etch

i suggest you get a recent stable install disk

I can’t. It’s preinstalled on a VPS

hi everyone, I was trying to configure mail watcher in xfce desktop, I set it up for the correct imap server and related password and user but it does not notify me for new mail.

or install with that disk, and upgrade after you have edited sources.lst

update to sarge proper, then update that to etch. and make SURE you have a rescue system by your hoster

it installs with testing as source

he already has a install. and no CD anywhere

that’s exactly what I would like to do, but can’t seem to find a guide to it

put “sarge” in your sources.list and update to it

and he runs dist-upgrade whilst his sources point to testing

!tell Jen about sarge-etch

paste your sources.list

(and for the record I’m a OS X/Ubuntu dude so Debian seemd to be the most sane thing to choose) one sec

are you a chick? just so i get the right him/her thing

ahmmm… VPS. that means not being able to change kernels…

sed is still ascii, 1975 called etc.

hehe, wtf was that about

I think you mean sed is still byte-based.

are you completely sure mdadm’s report of “State - active sync /dev/sdb2″ means it’s actively syncing? because cat /sys/block/md1/md/sync_action claims it’s “idle” so I think ‘active sync’ doesn’t means it’s actually syncing

I don’t think it cares whether those bytes represent ascii or herrings

http://pastebin.ca/698512 no - have to dissapoint you on that one

we can still pretend wanna cyb3r? replace the “testing” with “sarge”

ha ha yeah - won’t go in your way if it means that you’ll help me out ty

do that after a fresh install, before upgrading..

what is the clean way to have the modules for my network devices (mii and b44) loaded at startup by udev ? I have to load them manually at each boot

use=version did it then

and then just apt-get update && apt-get upgrade ?

nice

no

as long as you have the fresh install and edit the list beforehand, yes

ha ha “which one to trust…”

not wols! unless you cyber with him, maybe he give a little extra help

what’s your proposal?

who’s your VPS provider?

they suck obviously

hexonet.net they are _cheap_

obvioulsy they are installing with a rc sarge install which is 3 years old

yeah I know

hmm, can’t find the vps page in en, what do they charge and for what?

~6 euro

ahh. that is check. what virtualization do they use? cheap*

http://hexonet.net/page/products/vserver.php?SETLANGUAGE=en_US Virtozzo

the “free” virtuozzo version? also from 3 years back?

s/Virtozzo/Virtuozzo

even though they are cheap, i would make a point of telling them that they are asking for their hosts to be pwned due to there badly outdated initial install

no idea

the sarge kernels from that era have some pretty funky exploits in them

ok

Hey guys, how can I check my disk space quota on my user?

ahh, openvz based…ok getting them to recompile a kernel would be a giant bitch then [uml is easy enough, xen is really easy]

but all the bad things aside their support is great (never waited more than 15 mins for an answer) and their servers seems to be quite stable had a host running for more than a year some years ago

hi, I need help. I’ve got a linux machine (ubuntu hoary) that I what to install debian on. I’ve got a floppy and a 128 MB usb stick and a bios not able to boot from usb. How to do that?

in virtualisation world, would the kernel exploits work?

anyway - is the any good VPS providers in that price range?

get the hd-media kernal and initrd, add it to grub menu and boot from it

linode if you can afford 20USD [300M RAM, 8G disk, 200G xfer]

debian still has floppies, but the hd-media kernel would be better

the exploit would only exploit the VPS. barring any special patches from the VPS software itself, it’S a normal linux host kernel of that era and epxloitable

thank you . Is there any docs on this, or can I ask questions here?

is ram etc burstable?

ok, so its still a problem then.

no.

its mentioned in the install guide

ok

i don’t quite understand burstable ram though, seems dodgy

once you have read that, feel free to ask here

tried vpslink.com and didn’t notice, that ram wasn’t burstable - that left me with a 64mb host willing to run NOTHING

as in openvz/vserver there is only one kernel running, i wonder if the exploit could affect the host OS

mmmh and linode has ubuntu too (no flaming intended but that’s what I know the best )

not sure how ubuntu beats debian in the server space but ok

didn’t say that it does - that’s just what I know the best (not that it means much)

fair enough. i am unaware how much difference there is once you get down to a using-everything-via-ssh level

i’ll even give you a hint seeing as you are coming over from the dumb side.. oops i meant dark side http://www.us.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/ch05s01.html.en#boot-initrd

thx, found it going for reboot and installation now

sweet

no, not the dark side… The debian side

from i said!

No package ‘libxml-2.0′ found, I checked that i have it through apt-get install libxml2 what should i do to make it work

get the -dev package \and a much less annoying nick

libxml2-dev

ok, i’ll try

it looks like a milipede

apt-cache search libxml | grep dev

so what ’s the reason after those -dev packages, these contain the source files?

headers

thx

that nick hurts my eyes!

configure now runs correctly

unfortunately nickometer wont work on it

is there a switch in find to only search for directory names?

sure is. man find

what is the switch in find to only search for directory names?

/directory

i’ve been looking for a good while

push n a few times till you find it on the 16th n i hit it [which doesn’t take as long as it sounds]

it does if you don’t know what to look for

!ati

Want to use a newer ATI videocard in sarge? for etch/testing and sid/unstable, just install fglrx-driver and fglrx-kernel-src and read /usr/share/doc/fglrx-kernel-src/README.Debian.gz Try to avoid using ati’s stuff directy unless you have to. — I’ve heard the driver control panel app needs 32bit libs to compile under 64b, or chris.evenden@amd.com, or and open specs announced 2007-09-05.

What’s needed by dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg to detect my hardware ? (I’m trying to setup xorg inside a vserver guest and dpkg doesn’t detect my ATI onboard card)

uhm no vizualization no full hardware

ah, i forgot what you were asking about. stew had no idea either. try asking him now, he was here not long ago

you around still?

is this after a fresh install?

yeah. Fresh install, edit sources to ’sarge’, apt-get update and apt-get upgrade

install a 2.6 kernel

how can i check which kernel i ‘m running?

try apt-get -f install Jen,

uname -a or uname -r

theres some ability you have to allow the guest before you can run x in a vserver guest, i can’t recall - its in the wiki

mfrisch, well, it seems X can run in a guest just fine, but i’m just a lazy one that doesn’t want to manualy confgure xorg.conf, so i was hoping to make dpkg make the work

http://pastebin.ca/698541

cast, it’s CAP_RAW_IO, I have X working, i’m just wondering what’s preventing dpkg to auto detect my hardware

uhm should work but honestly I have not done a desktop dom before…

install a 2.6 kernel. boot into it and try and upgrade

does this look okay? http://omploader.org/vNDM3

Jen, sound like a plan , you could also try to let aptitude install it, its a bit more powerful

learn Haskell, Smalltalk, Scheme or Lisp, and Factor or Forth.

but update your sources and follow the instructions in the release notes, and get back with problems

Absolute0, get the one from testing or unstable

What does lspci use to “detect” the hardware ? I mean, is there a database or something ?

How do I change the font on tty ?

dont ‘upgrade’ just change your sources and follow the release notes

The reason being they aren’t just a rehash of stale ideas in a badly-designed and -implemented interpreter. They will teach you to look at problems in more than once way.

PCI is designed to tell the host what cards/devices are there the translation from device nunmbers to Names does a text file

but isn’t ruby the “cool” thing these days ;]

No.

lol

If you want to get paid instead of educated, learn Python and Java and PHP.

wols, yeah i know, but i’m playing around with vservers, and if I copy lspci into a vserver, the poor lspci doesn’t “detect” my hardware, but if I use it on the host, it works

Ruby has a smaller user base than Python and isn’t different enough for anyone to care about it.

when i am adding a repository to sources.list is it enough to just add it to the first line or i need to put it on everyline?

probably the vserver doesn’t allow the guest to access the hardware, which is only reasonable

what do you mean “add it to the first line”? each non-comment, non-blank line in sources.list represents exactly one repository.

every line is ONE repository

wols, i’ve added the necessary capabilities, lspci seems to see the devices, but it doesn’t “know” them

“see” how?

wrong, lots of people care about ruby

pastebin output please

you can add the same line and change the etc word into sid or lenny if thats what you want

Is it possible to set up a repo (using scanpackage, or ??) to host multiple versions of the same package?

i mean the version of that repository

how can i mount an usb memory?

told me to get flashplugin from testing so how would i do that?

yeah just did that

in a VPS he cannot simply change the kernel. the new (debian) kernel probably won’t run one needs a patched kernel

well, his upgrade was trying to upgrade a 2.4 kernel which he isnt running and baulking on it

he needs to run the original kernel from his hoster or ask his hoster which kernel to use

ah .. no i meant GUI burning apps

I’m installing Debian right now for use in a web and mail server

is not a burning app gnomebaker is

I’ve selected “Web server” and “Mail server” as usage features of my system, and Debian installed Exim as mta

ill go for gnomus baccus

how do i see what dpkg said? it didnt say anything

yes.

is there a good howto about it? I need virtual domains, authentication, imap, webmail…

hehe

!exim

for security and speed improvements, or to clean the mail queue and delete pending e-mail, use “mailq | awk ‘{print $3}’ | xargs exim -Mrm”

cute ..

I believe that is where the MS Research teams that make up an apparently large part of the Haskell community come from.

you can pick another MTA if you’re more familiar with it

I found some good howtos about Postfix, none for Exim… how can I remove exim completely from my system? I never used Debian before now

just install postfix

I mean, how can I remove Exim and all his not used dependencies

aptitude install postfix

well… but this will not remove exim!

it will

bullshit

yes it will

ah, ok that’s great

-assuming- you had used aptitude the whole time, you could do that because aptitude keeps track. if you did not…

then it would still get removed..

then you have to find the packages yourself and/or use orphan

‘fuser /dev/dsp’

but wols thinks that wont work. i really have no clue about this virtual stuff, see if he has an idea lsof /dev/dsp

there are lots of docs

ok

great command! thanks a lot!

great caesar’s command!

omfg!?!

ehh no sound or ati on this stupid latpop?!

sorry, was channeling j jonah jameson

its even worse on windows hehe

hi all , want to install debian on a pc with Western Digital 80GB SCSI, but can’t find the drivers

but in next release or three, all the apty stuff will have that functionality so it will always be possible

Playing WAVE ‘/usr/share/sounds/alsa/Noise.wav’ : Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Rate 48000 Hz, Mono but nothing comes out of the speakre *speakers how is that possible? volume is max

hey .. I am using fetchmail to get my mail and procmail to sort it, but in /var/log/mail.log I get a lot of “Error while writing to “~/.procmaillog”" … why is that?

and laptop speakers dont have volume control

Absolute0, you are aware mute is different from levels?

i can only unmute max volume

as root?

“There was an error initializing the audio i/o layer. You will net be able to play or record audio. Error: Host error.” ?

and its not muted

but as of now (in etch), aptitude keeps track, apt-get does not

yes

Konqueror displays these rectangles instead of characters,I thought maybe it should display some insects instead of them,itd’be funnier

even my module is loaded whats the command that lists all connected hardware?

cTATUK, fuser -v /dev/dsp* /dev/snd* - anything returned?

i dont have lshw

absolute , open volume control and see if pcm is also opened

its max but no mute/unmute option

theres no such thing … lspci ? mount

lspci is only pci

dmesg

lspci ?

i also want screens

Absolute0, doubleclick your speaker icon and check

Nothing.

is anyone seeing SSL routinesSL3_GET_RECORD:wrong version number in the courier-imap-ssl in unstable?

cTATUK, IIRC audacity uses /dev/dsp - that device exists?

I have installed openvpn on debian server and a ubuntu client.. When i start openvpn on the client it works fine, but I cant get on the internet, somebody who knows why ?

ivan`: I am using unstable … how would I see that?

Yes.

what’s your route ? dns ?

try to have an iphone connect to a courier-imap/TLS server heh

!bts

it has been said that bts is the Bug Tracking System for Debian packages, http://bugs.debian.org/ or to go directly to the bug page for a particular package/bug, try http://bugs.debian.org/packagename or http://bugs.debian.org/bugnumber apt-get install reportbug, and check out querybts too. Unstable users are required to check the BTS, useful for sid: apt-get install apt-listbugs, or apt-get install apt-listchanges

cTATUK, other sound apps - like aplay - works as expected?

abrotman, my nameserver in resolv.conf is correct

ivan`: ahh .. ok .. dont have iphone

yeah

heyas

anyone knows of a free image pasting site without a login so that i can show you guys my alsamixer?

how do I delete data from a dvd-rw?

Actuall aplay produces static when running ‘aplay file.mp3′ but totem plays the file just fine

cTATUK, that’s expected aplay can’t handle mp3

ah i just tried to chmod 666 /dev/dsp that didn’t help audacity USED to work on this exact system but now doesn’t suddenly, even after trying to reinstall audacity

hi all , want to install debian on a pc with Western Digital 80GB SATA, but debian can’t find the hd

here is my alsamixer screen http://img66.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screenshothz4.png like i said no pcm mute/unmute i think thats the problem

its not the hard drive model that matters, its the controller chip

can you look at that link?

i’ll see

I find the Gnome alsa mixer more easy to work with, aptitude install gnome-alsamixer

master seems unmuted

i doubt that will help but i am trying it

where to read the controller chip on the hd ?

google your mobo

ehh so no solution to my problem? !alsa-checklist

/dev/dsp` work for root?

nas

your motherboard controller chip. you use lspci to check

whats arts?

i have to install first debian for make lspci ?

no !artsd

from memory, artsd is the much maligned soundserver of the much maligned analog Real time synthesizer

anyone know of any decent replacements for final cut pro on linux?

do i need arts or esound?

you don’t need either

ehh

howto please explain

this sucks

what mainboard do you have?

ok one mom

and what chipset does your mainboard have?

how do i check what kind of monitor i have? i only see my videocard in lspci

AVID perhaps

read-edid?

whats the command for it ? just installed it

he just told you dpkg -L

thats not the command maybe i need to logout first..

call with –help first though, because usually the output is not really readable.

no. it’s a better command. using it you can learn something for the future

its get-edid get-edid|parse-edid so does anyone know how i can get audio on my laptop?

I have installed openvpn on debian server and a ubuntu client.. When i start openvpn on the client it works fine, but I cant get on the internet, somebody who knows why ?

Absolute0, run alsamixer

yi did I did

and if stuf is unmuted/opened it should work

http://img66.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screenshothz4.png well it doesnt

Absolute0, pcm has no highlighted green 00

thats what i was trying to say all this time

Is it an older one?

defrysk, FYI neither has mine - works fine with only master unmuted

older what? when i press m by pcm nothing happens

your laptop

I changed /etc/fstab to get a tmpfs and then mount -a, while a graphical session was running. All the temporary files to make up a valid X session (all kinds of sockets files) are now gone. Is there a way to “restart Gnome” without killing any programs I started in gnome-terminal?

i just got it 2 days ago!

hi you here?

wols:Intel® Pentium® D Processor 820, SiS 662, S-ATA HDD

any other suggestions?

*rereding, what your audio-problem was* *scroll*

or no sound for me? how do i start esound? its not in init.d

Absolute0, my guess is you need a newer alsaversion

Absolute0, hit sigmatel stac9200 alsa in google and find out whats wrong

I am running alsaconf and its not saving my settings. it fails cuz no audio devices found, but it is detected. once before, simonrvn had said someohting about a .sh script you had tor un which resided somewhere, which would generate the correct device nodes where can i find this script?

hi, what are the kernel sources called in debian again?

and here are all detailed information http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-65948

and also, the nvidia installer complains about CC not being the same version as the one the kernel was compiled with

the stable version isnt good?

this is in lenny

linux-source-version

Absolute0, that’s not what I said Absolute0, you devices uses snd-hda-intel? meh

i think so

does anyone know?

thank you

thats what alsoconf picked up

I need to generate the audio device nodes like /dev/dsp

Absolute0, that driver is work in progress

dunno how

Nyle, simply loading snd-pcm-oss doesn’t fix it?

oh so there we go

no

!nagios

Nagios is a popular open source computer system and network monitoring application software. It watches hosts and services that you specify, alerting you when things go bad and again when they get better.

i had the same problema few weeks ago cahoot simonrvn said something about a script I had to run and that fixed it because i think i didn’t have the device nodes before just like now

can i use any alternative for now?

Absolute0, Id suggest a visit to alsa-user maling list mailing list

how can I change defult python into 2.5 in Debian???

And you can move the cursor under the pcm?

!dbugs #391921

user not authorized to run the X server, aborting.” … is there a way to allow regular users to start X without setuid?

Nyle, something like snddevices.sh?

did you try to aktivate it with the m-key ?

???? anyone know???? how can I change defult python into 2.5 in Debian??? plz

what computer do you have ?

its an onboard realtek sound chip hw is not a problem

I changed /etc/fstab to get a tmpfs and then mount -a, while a graphical session was running. All the temporary files to make up a valid X session (all kinds of sockets files) are now gone. Is there a way to “restart Gnome” without killing any programs I started in gnome-terminal? The best thing would be if I was able to move one terminal program to another terminal.

Nyle, running invoke-rc.d alsa-utils reset 0 does no good?

But I don’t think those things are in Linux.

should have used something like screen, now there’s nothing you can do

join #flood

wols :are u there wols sis662

no, use a pastebin

is wxga tft the brand of the display?

xand, I forgot the ‘/’

or is it something else?

AFAIK, Gnome (gdm) also has the obnoxious feature that I cannot login twice in a graphical session. (with the same user)

read about the sound section : http://www.notebookforums.com/thread133914.html

no

that’s not really obnoxious. Much of gnome does not support this, so what gdm does would be good

Mixer attach default error: No such device /usr/sbin/alsactl: save_state:1253: No soundcards found… etc.

gnome doesnt even support multiple users on the same system

alsaconf is a broken program.

it *is* kinda crappy — it’s like saying you can’t have more than one login shell

there is a workaround what do you mean?

AFAIK, it does. I can select an option “login as a different user”

having multiple users logged into gnome at a time breaks things breaks things right, despite that option its not (well) supported

ok, I haven’t encountered that situation, but I believe you. if you would read the documentation that came with the package, you wouldn’t have to ask.

Hi

sure its crappy, point is that gdm _protects_ you by not allowing the unsupported multiple logins

i have a usb tv tuner card (Pinnacle PCTV Stereo). does anyone have a link to any resources on getting this to work in debian?

how do i get rid of video rendering in the console i want the basic view i dont see vga in /boot/grub/menu.lst but somehow its not plain

ok

I have recompiled my kernel 2.6.22 by using the .config file that I had set up in the 2.6.18 but when I restart the system with this kernel I get an error sayingÑ Waiting for the root file system

!nofb

Append “video=vga16:off” to the kernel at boot time to disable the framebuffer.

no initrd?

what?

/usr/share/doc/name of package

so its on by default?

/usr/share/doc/alsa-utils/README.Debian nothing

in archlinux its off by dafault

just like other alsa packages

remember that piece of information, it’s about the most interesting thing to know.

i dunno wtf youre talking about

I think it’s on because the kernel automatically load the kernel module

oh

/usr/share/doc/alsa-base/README.debian - Nyle

well with fb everything looks like crap!

is this the only help you can give? not to be rude, but you’re kinda wasting my time

read cahoot’s comment hahaha what do you think _you_ are doing?

hi. i want to run aterm or gnome-terminal and execute a script. i got this by gnome-terminal -e script or aterm -e script but the window closes instantly. i need the window to stay open. how do i get this working?

thanks so what exactly am I looking for in the documentation?

creating device files?

ahh yes at least cahoot is helpful fasta only said rtfm

and that’s the only thing that is helpful, since if you don’t understand what you are doing, you are going nowhere.

I understand but you don’t have to be a dick about it

I am not, you just interpret it in that way.

hi, I would like to ask how I can create physical volumes larger than 2GB, because command pvcreate creates them only 2GB large. I use Debian testing.

whatever

what type of filesystem ?

abrotman no filesystem yet, it’s only physical volume for lvm2

eh .. that doesn’t make sense

you create physical volume then you create volume group and then logical volumes(those you format with fs)

I did not figure to look in alsa-base since alsaconf is under alsa-utils

i thought you were farther along i guess

why would you thihnk that it creates only 2GB sized pv?

because it does this: PV Size 2.00 GB

the size of the pv is the size of the underlying block device

i guess thats why you came off as a dick, because i had already looked through the docs, or thought I had, and I’m still told I wouldn’t have to ask if I read the docs

yes the underlaying device is one created with cryptsetup 210GB

/dev/md1 system lvm2 a- 148,57G 101,57G

can anyone tell me why on earth the 2.6.21/22 kernels have changed the device IDs? e.g hda8 becomes sda8. This is a real PITA because you have to (a) change the grub line for the new kernel and also change the fstab which, unless you use UUIDs, is then incompatible with etch!

you’re alright

maybe that is not really 210GB sized? i know nothing cryptsetup specific

because they combined the SATA and PATA code

I used this: cryptsetup -c aes-cbc-essiv:sha256 -s 256 luksFormat /dev/DEVICE

hi

e2label(1), kopt root=LABEL=yourfslabel

that’s not useful for me, i know nothing cs specific..

but why not do it properly and move to UUIDs?

why is alsaconf included in the package if it is such a bad program. I mean, obviously there are better ways, no?

well, I thought its transparent to lvm2

they havent, they just added drivers ( they didnt remmove old ones though )

it works for some users.

is there a standard facility in debian that can set the read ahead on various block devices? or is currently the only way to add a new init.de script or add lines to rc.local?

bad timing I guess.

that can indeed change the physical device names though..

but on my crappo-meter it scores quite high. What chip do you have?

I tried the backport of the 2.6.22 kernel and finally I can have my SATA in enhanced mode. But where to get the necessary nvidia kernel files?

what is? what’s your cs device? what’s your /dev/DEVICE ?

If you know that, you look up the alsa matrix on alsa-project.org

cryptsetup status gives me this size of the encrypted device size: 4190909 sectors device is /dev/sda2

so that is 2G

then you follow card specific instructions there.

or what?

ich8

if there’s no driver for your hardware, give up or get another card.

how much is 1 sector 256bytes or 512?

some realtek cheapo hd onboard chip

512

its just that the devices nodes were not created by alsa, and I was simply looking for that snddevices script

that’s the wrong approach you should not do anything with device nodes

everything is fine now, and honestly I did not figure to look in alsabase because alsaconf is in alsautils

damn, so now I have other trouble how to create 210GB encrypted partition with cryptsetup

why?

is your sound working?

yes

guessing that the source of your error is that ‘alsa does not ccreate device nodes’ is silly, and most likely wrong

thank you for help

ok, are you sure it still works after a reboot?

proabably

you should test that.

i’ll worry about it when i reboot you are proabably right. I admit I don’t know the inner workings of said packages

well, at least in modern Alsa + kernel combinations nobody does manual device nodes, anymore.

so why was there no /dev/snd? or any sound related device nodes until i ran the script s/was/were

make sure linux-sound-base is installed and ‘dpkg-reconfigure linux-sound-base’ to set it to alsa

udev

I don’t know what script you are talking about.

it is installed

and you do not need any scripts

in /usr/share/alsa-base/snddevices

no device found or and/or no driver loaded

filing bug now or well following up with the alreday filed one

www.pennergame.de/ref.php?refid=7309922 müsst ma rauf klicken

plus the documentation said i think if the post installation script for alsa does not create the device nodes, then run the script manually

www.pennergame.de/ref.php?refid=7309922

!ops

[ops] Please invoke ‘dpkg: ops $problem’ to call the ops to deal with a specific problem. Misuse of this will lead to a ban.

device nodes names are explicitely dynamic. Unfortunately many distros by default do not respect that.

why are you calling ops?

…

because of the spammer

kruste

yes but he has already left anyway so what is the problem here i want to understand. I found a fix/workaround but i want to understand

what was the fix?

default debian install uses udev i suppose, and if device nodes are not being created then where is the problem here? with udev or with alsa? running the /usr/share/alsa-base/snddevices script

the problem is usually that the kernel modules are not loaded

driver wasnt loaded?

it was

does sound actually work now?

yes yes yes

custom kernel?

it happened last time as well

anyone have idea how to create encrypted partition bigger than 2GB? I use this command cryptsetup -c aes-cbc-essiv:sha256 -s 256 luksFormat /dev/sda2

nope, just regular stock

what’s the size of sda2?

few weeks ago same problem, simonrvn said look in that script and i did and that is what fixed it If you are not using udev then you can create the ALSA device files manually by running the snddevices program in /usr/share/alsa-base/. This should have been done for you by alsa-base’s post-installation

udev, a udev rule in /etc/udev/ or a broken sound driver that does not initiate the node creation

damn

220GB partition unformated

ahh so there could be those issues

there’s a udevmonitor program you could run while the driver gets loaded

i’ll look around in there see if i find anything, cuz obviously this is a bug ok

like : run udevmonitor , then /etc/init.d/alsa force-reload

what error do you get?

yup

or alsa-utils force-reload

hm, does anybody know of a site/place where games for linux are being developed?

!debgames

from memory, debgames is debian games installable by apt-get are listed at http://debianlinux.net/games.html

!happy penguin no?

no error, but it only creates 2GB encrypted drive on 220GB partition

!happypenguin

google?

freshmeat.net sf.net

happypenguin.org or something my room is freezing damn

cool thanks ya valdyn tried google

whoa. Is autoremove a quite new addition to apt-get? I’ve never seen this one before..

what kinda games do you like?

then don’t use it

nethack!

abrotman, thats about it yes

2GB(or 4190909 sectors) encrypted drive on 239322.75MB partition to be exact

what do you need to know?

hi there. a short question… i dont like 1000hz kernels neither 250HZ… someone told me its possible to set Kernelfrequency manually to 500 in param.h. Is he right and i’m to dumb to get it working? thanks for answers

you notice a difference? What are you doing?

I’m having some weird problems with my wireless I installed the ipw3945 drivers successfully, set up WEP, and brought it up… …and it froze the entire system. advice?

how is the passwords scheme in debian?

what package do I need to install to have a proper cgi-bin? apache2, mind you

Supaplex when i set HZ to 1000 in menuconfig + 500 in param.h he gives me 1000ticks after compiling. when i set 250HZ in menuconfig and 500hz in param.h it gives me 250ticks. so i dont think overwritting with param.h does work… or am i doing something wrong?.. should it work?

what debian version are you using?

4.0r1 the base system isn’t updated, the KDE and X suites are

that’s not my question. is there a performance difference between different values?

what do you mean?

I did a base install from 4.0r1 and installed KDE and X by network, so they’re up-to-date I haven’t run an apt-get upgrade yet think that’s it?

updating to 4.0 went fine, but the kernel upgrade didn’t work out. Guess I have to confront the provider on that one. Thanks for beeing patient

why not?

haven’t had time

Hello, maildrop does not detect my custom installation of authlib, how to specify it?

ah, good. yeah, give em a ring and give em a serving for their shit base system you havent had time to type apt-get upgrade?

Supaplex there is a difference, thats for sure. at 1000hz the cpu is working real hard, but my realtime processes work much finer, softer, they reach 1000fps. at 250HZ they reach 250fps and are missing performance. so i want to reach the middle by set HZ to 500, understand?

already did that - maybe I should have waited until they have provided me the help to upgrade the kernel

not that thats the problem. its just a strange excuse

no, I haven’t had time to *wait* for the command to finish

hi all

instead of using ifup, have you tried to get the iface up with ifconfig and iwconfig?

/proc/ …)

in the mirrors debian is java sun?

what would that do?

you can see whether it works at each step of the process

because the whole notion of a timer tick is so very … 90’s.

Supaplex well, what about starting some kind of project?

NO_HZ. really. it’s a good thing.

CONFIG_NO_HZ=y CONFIG_HZ=300

NO_HZ ???

AHM IN UR BOX STEALIN UR HURTZ

yeah, it’s painless

timer tick is very stupid liable, lol http://www.aerifal.cx/~dalias/images/h4×0rz.jpg

yes my puns HZ sometimes. my bad.

xingu will me realtime processes be able to reach 1000fps with no ticks? they were just able to with kernel HZ set to 1000…

you can seal all the hurts you want steal*

what does HZ stand for here? because it’s very funny given you speak russian

hertz obviously

1/1000000 mhz of course

Hz… not HZ

perhaps you could talk a little bit more about what your realtime processes actually do and what they are blocking on before I comment.

preprocessor symbols should never use lowercase

!hz

in general waiting for a time-period to elapse is a pretty dumb idea

test

Test Failed.

bad preprocessor symbol. no biscuit.

how do I check direct rendering is enabled?

xingu its a process that should be able to calculate 1000 times a second and interrupt that often too, so the calculations can be send to clients in realtime.

glxinfo

i don’t have it..

install mesa-utils

tnx

noted…..

xingu would that process be able to do that without static ticks ?

ok now how do I check how many fps glxgears gives? I don’t see anything only the weels

so basically you have two thread groups (a calculate group and a send group) and a per-client mutex or semaphore raised when a tx timeslot is ready

!glxgears

i guess glxgears is an opengl demo. it is not a good benchmark, in fact in recent versions of glxgears you must pass it the -iacknowledgethatthistoolisnotabenchmark flag in order to get it to report fps information. now located in the mesa-utils package.

what I don’t understand yet is what part of this problem belongs in the time domain

k tnx

ie, why not run both thread groups at full throttle as resource permits?

xingu we are confusing each other. that wasnt actually what i wanted to know. when i joined here i just asked if its possible to set kernelHz to 500, because i got 6 of this realtime processes and with 1000hz there stressing the cpu really hard. so i have to throttle them to 500. but i cant to it in process options. they make whatever the kernel let them do. so i just asked… what do i have to do, to set kernelHz to 500, and is it poss

100 250 300 1000 is it

xingu in menuconfig i have 100-250-1000 and overwritting with param.h (a friend told me) doenst really work

I think what you want to know is how to move your problem from being one which happens on a timer tick to one which happens when your per-client tx queue is empty enough to take a newly calculated result

and not adjustable in relatime ooh, confusing

liable i havent 300Hz in my 2.6.18 menuconfig..

i have in 22. shrug

liable me not

300HZ merged in 2.6.19 from memory

ok

so theres no chance to set kernelHz to 500? (if its dumb or not is another question)…

dont believe so

if something speeds up with a faster tick rate it’s because it’s busy-waiting on the next timer to fire, and that’s just unbelievably dumb.

ifconfig up didn’t work, since I configured it with iwconfig I tried using wifi-radar instead, with the same results

does iwconfig show it as associated with the key set?

yes

it’s also quite probable that it’s getting no benefit from icache or dcache

xingu dumb but necessary

so it gives a link quality?

not until I ifup it then KWifiManager reports 77 just before the crash

bah fuck all the stupid fucking gui wifi tools nobody can use the backend tools anymore

you probably also want to test your use-case with NO_HZ and CFS (head-of-git-repo vers.)

xingu the NO_HZ… may i write it in the param.h or in the .config file?

how come ardour isn’t in lenny?

so… advice?

menuconfig choice in a recent kernel

xingu in “processor types and features” theres no option that sounds even nearly that way

2.6.22 on i386, 2.6.23rc on amd64

can I use wild cards as in ‘find . -name fis*’ ?

you have to quote them find . -name ‘fis*’

xingu its important i run an 2.6.18.. isnt it possbile to use some sort of patch to implement the NO_HZ?

…?

bit

CFS = Completely Fair Scheduler

sylpheedClaws damn, i knew it

thanks for not banning the wrong dude

liable:

the biggest improvement will come when you change your code so that it’s no longer waiting on time but rather waiting on transmit slots

any advice?

xingu i really think im too unexperienced to do some sort of…. coding

is the Happs guy in here, that works on it?

maybe you should ban mortal_ I mean MORG

if you need to timecode something, get the calc thread to put a timecode onto the data buckets, allow it to *overrun* if the tx queue is full (ie, discard in the event a result is ready too early), and get the client to do whatever it needs to with the results as they arrive

I did

hi

yo

the resource constraint is not time; it’s compute resource, it’s transmission slots, but it’s not time.

yes. use the backend tools before you try the gui’s

the cpu calculates, the packet sould be send immedialty. the cpu calculates again… and so on, and this 1000 (or 500) times a second. is that stupid? will the scheduler get pissed of?

kill kwifi and dont use your interfaces file. use ifconfig and iwconfig, check to see if it gets associated then try dhclient

When I mount an NFS share from a CentOS server, files owned by nobody show up in ls(1) as being owned by “4294967294″. How do I fix this?

CFS won’t; but why not let the calculation and the transmit take place asynchronously?
