Bug#281331: ITP: dstat -- versatile resource statistics tool
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist * Package name: dstat Version : 0.5.2 Upstream Author : Dag Wieers <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * URL : http://dag.wieers.com/home-made/dstat/ * License : GPL Description : versatile resource statistics tool Dstat is a versatile replacement for vmstat, iostat and ifstat. Dstat overcomes some of the limitations of these programs and adds some extra features. Dstat allows you to view all of your network resources instantly, you can for example, compare disk usage in combination with interrupts from your IDE controller, or compare the network bandwidth numbers directly with the disk throughput (in the same interval). Dstat also cleverly gives you the most detailed information in columns and clearly indicates in what magnitude and unit the output is displayed. Dstat is also unique in letting you aggregate block device throughput for a certain diskset or network bandwidth for a group of interfaces, i.e. you can see the throughput for all the block devices that make up a single filesystem or storage system. Dstat's output, in its current form, is not suited for post-processing by other tools, it's mostly meant for humans to interprete real-time data as easy as possible. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.8-1-686 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C

Perhaps we should let it in this state for Sarge and work on a menu improvement for sarge+1 with GNOME 2.10 ? This is definitely not a good solution and I'd against the word "only" in the first line of your quote. The Debian menu is a menu which users can find in all graphical and text environments on a Debian GNU/Linux system and thus I would regard it as the *main* menu entry. The Debian menu is the *only* (and here 'only' is in the right sense) which is almost complete regarding the installed applications on the machine (and if you ask me personally it is the only one which is worth looking at). Backporting the user menu back to the Gnome version which will be shipped Sarge would be a really great thing for Custom Debian Distributions. Kind regards Andreas. -- http://fam-tille.de

Perhaps we should let it in this state for Sarge and work on > a menu improvement for sarge+1 with GNOME 2.10 ? This work (XDG menu support) is already done. For GNOME 2.10 it is just a matter of removing one conffile and adding a Depends. On the other hand, we should strive for the highest quality for our next stable release and working support for user (Debian) menu is quite a popular wishlist. For example, I received bug #280081 last week. I have already written a menu-method that produce a suitable vfolder-info menu. What need to be done is to integrate it with gnome-panel. If no change to gnome-panel menu code is performed, the question is whether the file /etc/gnome-vfs-2.0/vfolders/applications-all-users.vfolder-info can be 'diverted'. If users are unlikely to modify this file, this is an option, albeit ugly. I would note that I posted here only after failing to gather much support on debian-gtk-gnome.

Request For Comments: Cycleroot-ng
Hello, I've built a `little` bash script (its size is 29Kb) that controls/manages background images, it's easily configurable for any of the existing window-managers and I've included many features. I've been using it extensively and now I think that it will be a good idea to make it available for public use. So I wanted to know if any of the existing Debian projects about window-managers (as Debian Desktop for example) would be interested in this package, or what do you think about. I have read about the docs available at debian-devel about package-building, and I think it will be easy for me to build a debian-package.

A warning is issued though, device ... does not match PIRQ mask, try pci=usepirqmask. Also pci=noacpi works. Now IRQ 11 is allocated to the sound card Intel 82801CA-ICH3, shared with other devices. No effort is made to try to allocate IRQ7 (used by parport 0). IRQ9 is allocated to ACPI.
