It looks like it is asking you to be logged in as root to startx. You
can also do something like the following to capture the output of
startx.
startx > x.txt 2>&1

There is a file /etc/X11/Xserver. The first line states the server name
like XF86_SVGA. Please check this as you should not have to create a
symlink. Your method circumvents the way it is suppose to work in
Debian.

I don't really know about this message - I'm pretty new as well. There

I did a bit of looking as I had some problems when I install as well.

First, when you run XF86Setup you should save the file to
/etc/X11/XF86Config. There is a symbolic link from
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/XF86Config to that file. The setup program defaults
in the the save dialog to the symlink.

Also, you shouldn't have to do weird things like copy files around and
such on Debian. The whole dpkg, apt approach is so you don't have to do
this. So I would try to undo anything abnormal if you can. BTW, I've
been using SuSE and have one box to switch to Debian.

The first line of the /etc/X11/XF86Config file should be
/usr/X11R6/bin/XF86_ where I assume you should have SVGA for .
The rest of the file on my box is as follows
Console

These are the choices
RootOnly
Console
AnyBody


I'm running Gnome so I installed gdm(gnome display manager) as the
default on install is xdm and twm for the window manager. I also decided
to install icewm to run instead of twm but twm will work.
apt-get install gdm
later you can install icewm or sawmill or whatever. apt-get install
icewm

Also nothing worked until I rebooted and I got wierd can't open display
messages when gdm was not installed or was not running.

Also since I didn't pick the svga server during install, I had to do the
following.
apt-get install xserver-svga

You can also do a dpkg -l to list what is installed. Overall, I think
Debian rules -- not released before it's time(at least stable).

Hope this helps,
Eric :-)

You need pump or dhclient installed to negotiate with the dhcpd where
you are getting your address and other network params.

ifconfig should show lo.(loopback) 

Use ifconfig to start the interface.

ifconfig eth0 up

How to use touch pad and mouse?

2001-04-04 Thread Eric Richardson
Hi,
Can I get the touch pad and the ps2 mouse I'm using both to work? 

I got the mouse to work with the /dev/psaux and I think the /dev/mouse
device worked before with the touch pad but now doesn't work.

Can I have two Pointer sections in XF86Config?
Currently it looks like this.
Section "Pointer"
   Protocol"PS/2"
   Device  "/dev/psaux"
   BaudRate1200
   Emulate3Timeout 50
EndSection

Thanks,
Eric :-)

I have a UMAX 533T which is no longer made but works pretty good. I
checked the manual and indeed the touch pad is a ps2 device which
explains why it worked fine before I plugged the mouse in and I'll use
the emulate3button for pasting as noted in the other thread for use when
the ps2 mouse is not plugged in.

I haven't checked whether bios supports both but I don't remember a
setting for this. I'll take a look at XF86Config as well.

I'm currently using stable - what is the first kernel that supports USB
as a have that port as well?

Thanks for the help.

Bios doesn't have any settings for supporting both. If the mouse is
plugged in the pad doesn't work and if it's unplugged the pad works with
no rebooting or anything - interesting.



pcmcia statup order

2001-04-09 Thread Eric Richardson
Hi,

More than one person(debain-user) is having problems with the startup
sequence with
pcmcia. I thought I'd ask here as this list is very familiar with
pcmcia. Please read the messages below. It seems that
/etc/init.d/networking gets called before /etc/init.d/pcmcia. 

I searched open and closed bugs for [EMAIL PROTECTED] and could not find
anything reported
about this.

Is this a problem that needs to be looked at for the distribution? 

It sure makes the out of box experience with Debian a little rough.

Eric :-)

I'm not sure what to do so I went ahead and filed a bug report. It
doesn't make
sense to me.  It might just be an oversight as the package is not in the
stable archive. I tried to install the pcmcia-modules-2.1.19-2
I found in  unstable and it doesn't work. I'm using 2.2.17 until this is
resolved or I compile them myself.

I don't have a Toshiba but I'm curious how you got the pcmcia-modules
for 2.2.19? I upgraded to 2.2.19 kernel and no pcmcia modules came with
the kernel. I filed a bug report and a few days later after I saw the
2.2.19 modules I did an apt-get install pcmcia-modules-2.2.19 and got
version 3.1.22-0.2potatok4 and the apt system also replace my kernel
with a matching one. This one works.

Hope this helps,

I did compile the pcmcia-modules but I don't compile my own kernel yet
so I couldn't try it out. I don't think you mentioned that you were
compiling you own stuff. I thought you were using stock 2.2r3.

USB Problems

2001-05-09 Thread Eric Richardson
Hi,

I'm not able to get USB to work so would appreciate some help. I'm using
2.2.19(not a custom build), 2.2r3 stable/proposed updates on a UMAX
533T. I'm trying to use a Belkin USB mouse for starters. Here what I did
so far. I used the procedures from the docs on linux-usb.org. 

1. loaded the modules - usb-ohci didn't work so I assume the usb-uhci is
correct as supported in the boot message below

# lsmod (edited)
mousedev3596   0 (unused)
hid11384   0 (unused)
input   2684   0 [mousedev hid]
usb-uhci   18200   0 (unused)
usbcore41028   0 [hid usb-uhci]

2. added the device files
$ ls -la /dev/input
total 0
crw---1 root root  13,  63 May  8 09:27 mice
crw---1 root root  13,  32 May  8 09:27 mouse0

Note the following.

# cat /dev/input/mouse0
cat: /dev/input/mouse0: No such device



3. added to /etc/fstab after /proc entry
none   /proc/bus/usb   usbdevfs  defaults   0   0
$ ls /proc/bus/usb
001  devices  drivers

The only thing weird on the boot mesg is that I physically only have one
USB port but the system is trying to assign 2 devices.

Thanks in advance for any help.

I added the following to /etc/apt/sources.list

# proposed
deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian dists/potato-proposed-updates/
deb http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US
dists/potato-proposed-updates/

apt-get install pcmcia-modules-2.2.19

The updated the modules and added pcmcia and also updated the 2.2.19
kernel to one that matches the compiled modules.

I've been using this for a while without any trouble that I'm aware of.

Need PCMCIA help.

2001-05-10 Thread Eric Richardson
Hi,

Both my ethernet Controller and the cardbus are using the same interrupt
and I'm told this is suboptimal as it is sharing it with USB. PCMCIA is
working but USB is not(2.2.19 kernel).

How can I update /etc/pcmcia.conf to remedy this? 

Here is the USB and the PCMCIA dmesg output. The first part of the
message prints out
options:  [pci] [cardbus] [apm]
Should this be set to something as well?

It looks like the 2.2r4 will have the pcmcia added according to the post

PCMCIA Support for 2.2.19 kernel

Maybe this will help,

p.s. I'm learning to compile and install custom kernels since alot of
people suggest this is the way to go.

How to get libgnome 1.2.x for development?

2001-05-25 Thread Eric Richardson
Hi,

I'm on stable and trying to compile a program that requires the
following:
libgnome 1.2.x, gtk+ 1.2.7 and libxml 1.8.x and gnome-print 0.25.

I installed the libgnome-dev (which installs libgtk1.2-dev) and
libxml-dev which gives me the following:
libgnome 1.0.56, gtk+ 1.2.7 and libxml 1.8.x and gnome-print 0.10.

I think the gnome-print comes with libgnome. Anyway, I was wondering how
I can get the 1.2 libgnome. It looks like it is libgnome32 in testing
but I couldn't find any installable packages.

Could I put a deb src for testing and then get the source to compile and
then install?

What package?

Will installing the new libs conflict or mess up the current libs? 

I really don't want to mess up a perfectly good system because I don't
know what I am doing.

Any help would be appreciated.

Eric

I couldn't find this but found a debian directory with all the stuff to

Okay, I added these for testing/woody in addition to stable.

apt-get source libgnome-dev
This gave me version 1.2.13-4 which is good. It wouldn't build.
apt-get install xpm4g-dev
It is built finally.(It's big)

What do I do now? Do I package it some how so I can install it? Of
course it has a make install target.

Use a ./configure --prefix=PATH and install it via make install
somewhere else?

When you don't know a process - it stinks. Maybe you know of some
documentation for Debian development.

Anyway, thank a ton for getting me this far.

Okay, I tried this and it failed. The follow directories are the trouble
maker.

gnome-libs-1.2.13/intl
gnome-libs-1.2.13/gnome-faq

These have no Makefile.in so a empty Makefile gets created which fails
on the recursive build.

Making clean in intl
make[2]: Entering directory `/root/gnome-libs-1.2.13/intl'
make[2]: *** No rule to make target `clean'.  Stop.
make[2]: Leaving directory `/root/gnome-libs-1.2.13/intl'
make[1]: *** [clean-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/gnome-libs-1.2.13'
make: *** [clean] Error 2

One other thing. I do not have a deb-src to unstable because I thought
it might have even a newer version than 1.2.13 and 1.2 is fine.

I'll add the unstable to sources.list - maybe the makefile is in the
unstable diff.
Is this just coincidence as I thought testing and unstable used
different versions of almost everything?

If dmesg pumps out something like this, then APM is enabled in the

apm: BIOS version 1.2 Flags 0x03 (Driver version 1.13)

Edit /etc/lilo.conf

It looks like it is asking you to be logged in as root to startx. You

There is a file /etc/X11/Xserver. The first line states the server name
like XF86_SVGA. Please check this as you should not have to create a

I did a bit of looking as I had some problems when I install as well.

First, when you run XF86Setup you should save the file to
/etc/X11/XF86Config. There is a symbolic link from
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/XF86Config to that file. The setup program defaults
in the the save dialog to the symlink.

Also, you shouldn't have to do weird things like copy files around and
such on Debian. The whole dpkg, apt approach is so you don't have to do
this. So I would try to undo anything abnormal if you can. BTW, I've
been using SuSE and have one box to switch to Debian.

The first line of the /etc/X11/XF86Config file should be
/usr/X11R6/bin/XF86_ where I assume you should have SVGA for .
The rest of the file on my box is as follows
Console

These are the choices
RootOnly
Console
AnyBody


I'm running Gnome so I installed gdm(gnome display manager) as the
default on install is xdm and twm for the window manager. I also decided
to install icewm to run instead of twm but twm will work.
apt-get install gdm
later you can install icewm or sawmill or whatever. apt-get install
icewm

Also nothing worked until I rebooted and I got wierd can't open display
messages when gdm was not installed or was not running.

Also since I didn't pick the svga server during install, I had to do the
following.
apt-get install xserver-svga

You can also do a dpkg -l to list what is installed. Overall, I think
Debian rules -- not released before it's time(at least stable).

Hope this helps,
Eric :-)

You need pump or dhclient installed to negotiate with the dhcpd where
you are getting your address and other network params.

ifconfig should show lo.(loopback) 

Use ifconfig to start the interface.

How to use touch pad and mouse?

2001-04-04 Thread Eric Richardson

Hi,
Can I get the touch pad and the ps2 mouse I'm using both to work? 

I got the mouse to work with the /dev/psaux and I think the /dev/mouse
device worked before with the touch pad but now doesn't work.

Can I have two Pointer sections in XF86Config?
Currently it looks like this.
Section "Pointer"
   Protocol"PS/2"
   Device  "/dev/psaux"
   BaudRate1200
   Emulate3Timeout 50
EndSection

Thanks,
Eric :-)

I have a UMAX 533T which is no longer made but works pretty good. I
checked the manual and indeed the touch pad is a ps2 device which
explains why it worked fine before I plugged the mouse in and I'll use
the emulate3button for pasting as noted in the other thread for use when
the ps2 mouse is not plugged in.

I haven't checked whether bios supports both but I don't remember a
setting for this. I'll take a look at XF86Config as well.

I'm currently using stable - what is the first kernel that supports USB
as a have that port as well?

Thanks for the help.

Bios doesn't have any settings for supporting both. If the mouse is
plugged in the pad doesn't work and if it's unplugged the pad works with
no rebooting or anything - interesting.

pcmcia statup order

2001-04-09 Thread Eric Richardson

Hi,

More than one person(debain-user) is having problems with the startup
sequence with
pcmcia. I thought I'd ask here as this list is very familiar with
pcmcia. Please read the messages below. It seems that
/etc/init.d/networking gets called before /etc/init.d/pcmcia. 

I searched open and closed bugs for [EMAIL PROTECTED] and could not find
anything reported
about this.

Is this a problem that needs to be looked at for the distribution? 

It sure makes the out of box experience with Debian a little rough.

I'm not sure what to do so I went ahead and filed a bug report. It
doesn't make
sense to me.  It might just be an oversight as the package is not in the
stable archive. I tried to install the pcmcia-modules-2.1.19-2
I found in  unstable and it doesn't work. I'm using 2.2.17 until this is
resolved or I compile them myself.

I don't have a Toshiba but I'm curious how you got the pcmcia-modules
for 2.2.19? I upgraded to 2.2.19 kernel and no pcmcia modules came with
the kernel. I filed a bug report and a few days later after I saw the
2.2.19 modules I did an apt-get install pcmcia-modules-2.2.19 and got
version 3.1.22-0.2potatok4 and the apt system also replace my kernel
with a matching one. This one works.

I did compile the pcmcia-modules but I don't compile my own kernel yet
so I couldn't try it out. I don't think you mentioned that you were
compiling you own stuff. I thought you were using stock 2.2r3.

533T. I'm trying to use a Belkin USB mouse for starters. Here what I did
so far. I used the procedures from the docs on linux-usb.org. 

1. loaded the modules - usb-ohci didn't work so I assume the usb-uhci is
correct as supported in the boot message below

# lsmod (edited)
mousedev3596   0 (unused)
hid11384   0 (unused)
input   2684   0 [mousedev hid]
usb-uhci   18200   0 (unused)
usbcore41028   0 [hid usb-uhci]

2. added the device files
$ ls -la /dev/input
total 0
crw---1 root root  13,  63 May  8 09:27 mice
crw---1 root root  13,  32 May  8 09:27 mouse0

Note the following.

# cat /dev/input/mouse0
cat: /dev/input/mouse0: No such device



3. added to /etc/fstab after /proc entry
none   /proc/bus/usb   usbdevfs  defaults   0   0
$ ls /proc/bus/usb
001  devices  drivers

Results from dmesg

I added the following to /etc/apt/sources.list

# proposed
deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian dists/potato-proposed-updates/
deb http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US
dists/potato-proposed-updates/

apt-get install pcmcia-modules-2.2.19

The updated the modules and added pcmcia and also updated the 2.2.19
kernel to one that matches the compiled modules.

I've been using this for a while without any trouble that I'm aware of.

Need PCMCIA help.

2001-05-10 Thread Eric Richardson

Hi,

Both my ethernet Controller and the cardbus are using the same interrupt
and I'm told this is suboptimal as it is sharing it with USB. PCMCIA is
working but USB is not(2.2.19 kernel).

How can I update /etc/pcmcia.conf to remedy this? 

Here is the USB and the PCMCIA dmesg output. The first part of the
message prints out
options:  [pci] [cardbus] [apm]
Should this be set to something as well?


Thanks for help,

It looks like the 2.2r4 will have the pcmcia added according to the post

PCMCIA Support for 2.2.19 kernel

Maybe this will help,

p.s. I'm learning to compile and install custom kernels since alot of
people suggest this is the way to go.

How to get libgnome 1.2.x for development?

2001-05-25 Thread Eric Richardson

Hi,

I'm on stable and trying to compile a program that requires the
following:
libgnome 1.2.x, gtk+ 1.2.7 and libxml 1.8.x and gnome-print 0.25.

I installed the libgnome-dev (which installs libgtk1.2-dev) and
libxml-dev which gives me the following:
libgnome 1.0.56, gtk+ 1.2.7 and libxml 1.8.x and gnome-print 0.10.

I think the gnome-print comes with libgnome. Anyway, I was wondering how
I can get the 1.2 libgnome. It looks like it is libgnome32 in testing
but I couldn't find any installable packages.

Could I put a deb src for testing and then get the source to compile and
then install?

What package?

Will installing the new libs conflict or mess up the current libs? 

I really don't want to mess up a perfectly good system because I don't
know what I am doing.

Any help would be appreciated.

Eric

I couldn't find this but found a debian directory with all the stuff to
make a .deb

Okay, I added these for testing/woody in addition to stable.

apt-get source libgnome-dev
This gave me version 1.2.13-4 which is good. It wouldn't build.
apt-get install xpm4g-dev
It is built finally.(It's big)

>

What do I do now? Do I package it some how so I can install it? Of
course it has a make install target.

Use a ./configure --prefix=PATH and install it via make install
somewhere else?

When you don't know a process - it stinks. Maybe you know of some
documentation for Debian development.

Anyway, thank a ton for getting me this far.

Okay, I tried this and it failed. The follow directories are the trouble
maker.

gnome-libs-1.2.13/intl
gnome-libs-1.2.13/gnome-faq

These have no Makefile.in so a empty Makefile gets created which fails
on the recursive build.

Making clean in intl
make[2]: Entering directory `/root/gnome-libs-1.2.13/intl'
make[2]: *** No rule to make target `clean'.  Stop.
make[2]: Leaving directory `/root/gnome-libs-1.2.13/intl'
make[1]: *** [clean-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/gnome-libs-1.2.13'
make: *** [clean] Error 2

One other thing. I do not have a deb-src to unstable because I thought
it might have even a newer version than 1.2.13 and 1.2 is fine.

I'll add the unstable to sources.list - maybe the makefile is in the
unstable diff.
Is this just coincidence as I thought testing and unstable used
different versions of almost everything?

If dmesg pumps out something like this, then APM is enabled in the

apm: BIOS version 1.2 Flags 0x03 (Driver version 1.13)

Edit /etc/lilo.conf

Add the append line. Then when you halt, APM will shutoff the machine.

Re: PCMCIA Network card up on boot...

2002-10-29 Thread Eric Richardson

Hi Bruce,

I installed woody and everything worked fine. When I upgraded to 2.4.x I 
had the same problem. I am using dhcp and there was no entry for eth0 in 
/etc/network/interfaces. It now looks like

auto lo eth0
iface lo inet loopback
iface eth0 inet dhcp

This fixed the problem. Of course I needed to use yenta_socket and tulip 
rather than tulip_cb. I wasn't using hotplug so I can't comment on that.


Good luck,
Eric



Bruce wrote:

I would like my wireless PCMCIA network card to be up and running on boot. 
From what I can gather from the hotplug docs, it should be started via 
"coldplugging", i.e, by the /etc/init.d/hotplug script which is run at boot 
time. 

To get the card to work after a reboot, I have to eject it and reinsert it 
after I have booted. When I do this, the hotplug scripts do their job and the 
network card is brought up. 

I notice that, by default, in runlevel 2, /etc/init.d/hotplug is run at S11, 
whereas /etc/init.d/pcmcia isn't run until S20. 

Shouldn't hotplug be run _after_ pcmcia when booting to get an already 
connected pcmcia device to work on boot?? If so, should I move pcmcia up, or 
hotplug down, in the boot order?? Am I missing something, or does this 
(default) configuration mean no coldplugging of PCMCIA devices in Woody?

I just recently reinstalled Woody on my T8100. The first time, I

After the rebuild (which I did using the PCMCIA NIC), the box comes up

This may be too obvious but have you checked the file -

# /etc/network/interfaces -- configuration file for ifup(8), ifdown(8)

auto lo eth0

It should have a entry for each device desired.

Network help for woody/2.4 needed

2002-08-27 Thread Eric Richardson

Hi,

I seem to have everything working okay but can't seem to get eth0 to 
come up automatically on boot. Everything worked fine with 2.2.20 kernel 
but now with 2.4.18-k6 it won't start without running ifup eth0. I'd 
really like to get this working the Debian way without hacks or at least 
understand what is going on.


Here is relevant dmesg, module, and /etc/network/interfaces info. I did 
play around with the interfaces file, looked at the man pages etc. with 
no luck. Any help is appreciated.

Re: Network help for woody/2.4 needed

2002-08-27 Thread Eric Richardson

Thanks all,
I thought I tried that but must have changed something else at the same 
time.


auto lo eth0
iface lo inet loopback
iface eth0 inet dhcp

This works fine. You saved me a bunch of time.

Hi,

I seem to have everything working okay but can't seem to get eth0 to 
come up automatically on boot. Everything worked fine with 2.2.20 kernel 
but now with 2.4.18-k6 it won't start without running ifup eth0. I'd 
really like to get this working the Debian way without hacks or at least 
understand what is going on.


Here is relevant dmesg, module, and /etc/network/interfaces info. I did 
play around with the interfaces file, looked at the man pages etc. with 
no luck. Any help is appreciated.


 


# /etc/network/interfaces -- configuration file for ifup(8), ifdown(8)

# The loopback interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

# The first network card - this entry was created during the Debian 
installation

iface eth0 inet dhcp



Needs a line 'auto eth0' in there to make the interface come up
automatically.

Hi Andreas,
You might want to try debian-laptop list. I always use the 
/etc/init.d/networking script or /etc/init.d/pcmcia to start and stop 
the cardbus. Did you try booting with the card in?

Hi,

I already lost too much time trying to get PCMCIA work on my laptop
(Samsung MV7000, potato, kernel 2.2.19, corega FEther PCC-TXF). The
card works under Win98.

When I put in the card I get one deep beep, removing it one high
beep. The card is recognized and the modules seem to be loaded
alright. But ifconfig doesn't show eth0 and consequently a ping
results in "network is unreachable". The network information
(ip-address, network, netmask, gateway, broadcast) in network.conf is
most certainly correct. (But see below under 6.)

Re: PCMCIA Network card up on boot...

2002-10-29 Thread Eric Richardson
Hi Bruce,

I installed woody and everything worked fine. When I upgraded to 2.4.x I 
had the same problem. I am using dhcp and there was no entry for eth0 in 
/etc/network/interfaces. It now looks like
auto lo eth0
iface lo inet loopback
iface eth0 inet dhcp

This fixed the problem. Of course I needed to use yenta_socket and tulip 
rather than tulip_cb. I wasn't using hotplug so I can't comment on that.

Good luck,
Eric

I would like my wireless PCMCIA network card to be up and running on boot. 
From what I can gather from the hotplug docs, it should be started via 
"coldplugging", i.e, by the /etc/init.d/hotplug script which is run at boot 
time. 

To get the card to work after a reboot, I have to eject it and reinsert it 
after I have booted. When I do this, the hotplug scripts do their job and the 
network card is brought up. 

I notice that, by default, in runlevel 2, /etc/init.d/hotplug is run at S11, 
whereas /etc/init.d/pcmcia isn't run until S20. 

Shouldn't hotplug be run _after_ pcmcia when booting to get an already 
connected pcmcia device to work on boot?? If so, should I move pcmcia up, or 
hotplug down, in the boot order?? Am I missing something, or does this 
(default) configuration mean no coldplugging of PCMCIA devices in Woody?

Re: Tecra 8100 networking

I just recently reinstalled Woody on my T8100. The first time, I
installed using a port replicator. After install, when I booted the
machine on the port replicator, it would find the interface and assign
the IP address. When I was using the PCMCIA NIC (a Xircom RealPort 16),
I had to manually start restart pcmcia.

After the rebuild (which I did using the PCMCIA NIC), the box comes up
normally when using PCMCIA, but when on the port replicator, I have to
do ifcfg eth0 to get the NIC in the replicator up and running. How can I
get either nic up and running automagically?

Thanks,


This may be too obvious but have you checked the file -

# /etc/network/interfaces -- configuration file for ifup(8), ifdown(8)

auto lo eth0
iface lo inet loopback
iface eth0 inet dhcp

It should have a entry for each device desired.
