If they're ridiculously slow compared to your download speed, then you may find that you're not able to ACK packets quickly enough to sustain a steady 50M download (I can't immediately work out at what sort of level this will happen, but I'm sure there's someone more versed in networking who can tell you). Another consideration is to look at the router's statistics page for line errors. You might find that packets are being retransmitted a lot, which will lower the effective rate of transmission (though, if it's to the point of constraining 50M down to 250K, then there's something wrong with the line). Finally, don't rule out the possibility that your ISP is throttling you. While you may be synced at 50M and may be able to transfer at that for short periods (and thus, the ISP can rightly claim that you have a 50M connection), they could conceivably throttle your connection in the longer term. > -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Exactly that is why this thread was very informative for me. Just for kicks (training) I was trying for a while to set up two dhcp servers on my network. One OpenBSD on a router and the other on Debian arm isc-dhcp-server on a cubietruck. One sends sync messages and the other connects to ip-ports - duh! The philosophy of OpenBSD dhcp seems to be really wide area networks not being on the same premises and isc-dhcp seems to be better fitted for LAN. Now I know that my endeavours are futile. The synchronization between two OpenBSD dhcp servers and the failover isc-dhcp-server are essentially different and do not work together. Either 2 * isc-dhcp-server (which is available for OpenBSD as a package) or 2 * OpenBSD dhcp servers (which does not exist for the armv7l cubietruck) => need another machine or "maquinita". So as for the OP having only small commercial SoHo routers there is no route to success either. Your posts made me dig deeper into the matter and I learned a lot.

Re: Issues with openvpn and virtualbox as the sole networking provider
Hopefully my replies are being received. I would hate to think that there is another issue as well :-( presently I have got the BP and to the point where I can ping the VPNs specific IP address I don't have any other internet connection to the entire guest image after the connection is made aside from this. I'm not sure why there's such an asymmetry between Android version of this process and Linux version since they have some of the same utilities in much the same internal structure. if I'm leaving information out the necessary I'd love to know what I have to provide.

To that end I was thrilled that VirtualBox technology came out recently in order to give this a much easier time in connecting to the network and using operating systems seamlessly. I installed the virtual box package and got the newest Debian DVD ISO and was able to get it all installed from what looks like a complete install. My issues are with my VPN provider that I use. They provide all the configuration on their end so I have no need to be able to offer server configs and the like nor can I randomly copy files over. I have a oven file, a .crt or certification file and of course my username and password. This seems to be good enough to get my android devices connected with a port of ovpn. The issues are with getting networking to recognize the vpn as the sole transparent provider on the instance end. It can initialize and create the tun0. I tried to get this configured but it seems that getting this done assumes several things which are not accurate in my case: 1. I want to run both a client and server and have complete access to both (the provider I work with handles all the server stuff and I don't have to do that, and it technically works without it). 2. All the key generation, random other stuff that the wiki assumes is required is apparently not required. 3. I'm not able to get any documentation from the net that seems to disagree with my need to do this at all (Google searches keep re-referencing the document with every single re-phrasing of the request I need). 4. I tried to mess with iptables and the like and get that to work which only succeeded in shutting off all access to websites that I tried to use 5. No one has apparently had any issues with Network Manger or it's kin that weren't easily solved, and or have never used the virtualization technology.g I'm sure I have to check things out but I need to know if anyone has done this before, what else I need to share (and what I can and must keep private due to not wanting to void my privacy) Thanks for the help -- "The death of one man is a tragedy, the death of 10 million is a statistic" -- Joseph Stalin "Omnia mutantur, nihil interit" (Translation: Everything changes, nothing is lost.) -- Ovid, _Metamorphoses_ >>> >>> >>> >>> -- >>> "The death of one man is a tragedy, the death of 10 million is a >>> statistic" -- Joseph Stalin >>> >>> "Omnia mutantur, nihil interit" >>> (Translation: >>> Everything changes, nothing is lost.) >>> -- Ovid, _Metamorphoses_ >>> >> >> >> >> -- >> "The death of one man is a tragedy, the death of 10 million is a >> statistic" -- Joseph Stalin >> >> "Omnia mutantur, nihil interit" >> (Translation: >> Everything changes, nothing is lost.) >> -- Ovid, _Metamorphoses_ >> >

Hi, I poked around the qmmp package, and it has a suspicious qmmp_dir.desktop file which registers qmmp has a handler for MimeType=inode/directory; So I'm guessing that's why you get qmmp instead of the file manager. Not sure if this is a bug in qmmp or a problem with your desktop environment in general. Try filing a bug with qmmp, if it's a more serious problem the bug can always be reassigned.

I think this is quite the most likely possibility. I have only anecdotal reports from friends but what I hear is that often ISPs allow a full speed burst but then throttle for long term steady state data transfer. That matches your reported behavior exactly. This allows customers to run a speed test and have it report full speed but prevent them from getting that speed for a long download such as a full system upgrade or a large install ISO image download.

Is it sourced via .bashrc? So not one file, but the lines in the last section quoted above *are* the very last lines in ~/.bashrc. Why last? To avoid my startup files printing anything with non-interactive shells, which they detect by PS1 being empty/unset. The only other slightly relevant change I made was to add the line : to ~/.bash_profile in order to prevent one getting a highlighted return code on logging in, eg, if the last command is a grep that matches nothing.

That said, I still have not definitively pinpointed the source of the problems. The LSI controller on the Squeeze system is working without a hard failure, however. A couple of the drives still suffer timeouts with that controller, but it doesn't barf when they do. It just resets the drive. I would happily buy another of these LSI controllers, but they don't have support for the management utility under Jessie (or Wheezy, for that matter). They work with the kernel, but without using the management software to tweak the controller parameters (especially the write-through cache), performance is truly dismal.

SATA may be the simplest/cheapest > solution, to my way of thinking. Not so much beyond about 10 drives. That said, this system was eSATA based for a long time, but it has been having issues. In my efforts to troubleshoot the problems, I converted my 20 drive chassis from eSATA Port Multipliers to multi-lane. It has solved some of the issues, but not all. > I would assume there are far more people running Linux with a SATA > system than there are for SAS, so it should be more widely tested, and > information would not be so scarce.

True enough,but many of the issues seem to have been related to the two systems being eSATA. > Here I agree with you.

Most cards are supported out of the box by the kernel on Jessie. It is the management software that is usually a problem. If they don't want to bother to support all sorts of different distros, then they should provide open source management software. > This is just personal preference, but I would as far as possible avoid > hardware that isn't supported by the Linux kernel itself, since that > would leave me at the mercy of the manufacturer with regard to future > support and updates. I agree I don't want hardware not supported in the kernel (or vice-versa, if you like), but that is only part of the problem, typically the smaller part. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

I can't quite understand Nicolas's sentence because I'm not sure whether by "the header" and "the whole header" he means the several lines of headers taken together. However, in https://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2015/04/msg01265.html I was perhaps less ambiguous (point 2): "In which case, if you want to know how come mutt is so fast, take a look at the source. Just to mention one optimisation I would consider: slurp the directory and sort the entries by inode. Open the files in inode order. And another: it's probably faster to slurp bigger chunks of each file (with an intelligent guess of the best buffer size) and use a fast search for \nMessage-ID rather than reading and checking line by line. " > This is not surprising, IMHO, for > the following reasons: > > First, as I've said, accumulating lines in a string may involve copies > and reallocations because the string grows (I don't know whether there > is a way to solve that without obfuscating the code). By slurp, I meant for you to try reading the top of the file as a single chunk using a read-a-load-of-bytes method rather than a repetitive readline method. In Python's terms (because I don't know the Perl ones) a call of read() class io.RawIOBase read(size=-1) Read up to size bytes from the object and return them. As a convenience, if size is unspecified or -1, readall() is called. Otherwise, only one system call is ever made... rather than readline() class io.IOBase readline(size=-1) Read and return one line from the stream. If size is specified, at most size bytes will be read. > Then I don't think that in the particular case of header validation, > there is much gain applying regexp's on the full header at once; the > reason is that my regexp's use the end of line as a separator (things > like /\n[^:\s]+\s/ and /^Message-ID:.../im). So, when I read the file > line by line, I already do a part of the job of regexp matching. But I would assume that regexp in languages like Perl/Python has code far more optimised than reading files line by line. So you would search for \nmessage-id:.*?\n (where .*? is non-greedy). > And finally, for each test, the header has to be read several times. I'm not sure why, without knowing the tests to apply (or did I miss seeing them?). > In my case, I don't need to deal with folded headers, except validating > the format, which is very easy with a line-by-line parsing. You did mention validating message-id and other headers and checking for missing ones, but do your scripts throw all this work away and, if so, why? For example, if you add your own distinctive Message-ID header to any file that doesn't have one, then that's one test you never have to repeat. > I may have other scripts that need to deal with them, but in this case, > I accumulate physical lines into a single logical one. AFAIK, this is > what mail processors do (postfix header filtering, procmail...). But > there is no need to accumulate the full header in a single string. Why not think of it this way: the "full header" (ie all the header lines of a message) *is* a single string: it's the beginning of the file, terminated by \n\n. I wonder how much speed-up you could achieve with a C function using strstr to find the end of the headers and returning them as a single string.

I tried "aptitude reinstall" for alsa packages, but this gave nothing. I could at last get a fix doing: 1/ purge all oss packages 2/ purge all alsa packages (alsa-base alsa-utils libsox-fmt-alsa osspd-alsa} 3/ install these packages After that, all sound cards reappeared. I don't know whether step 1/ was useful or not. I don't tag this thread as "Solved" as I still don't know how this problem occured. I had unattended upgrade enabled, but I thought it only deals with security issues, and I found nothing looking at all logs for the night of May 21 to 22.

discuss debian 's attitude to ppa
Yesterday I installed the LMDE(Linux Mint based Debian Jessie),which is a rolling release issued by Linux Mint! The installation is of no question! But when I want to install openyoudao from ppa , it returns me "not support ppa"! So I search it ! Although I don't find some real proof , but I can see one thing ! Maybe debian will not support ppa , because in the talk of Neil McGovern, he says some weakness of ppa! And from the development of Debian , ppa's development seems to be not able to ensure its stablity! What's your opinion? mudongliang -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

Laptops, UEFI, Secure Boot and Debian
Researching a laptop purchase (within the next 6 months or so) to replace my aging Desktop (1 to 8.5 years depending on which parts). Going to abandoned the Big Box forever. Need to be very portable in the next year or two. Two questions to begin: 1. Many laptops seem to only be able to turn off Secure Boot through the OS, Windows 8.x, or so I've researched. However, I've read some makes (Asus, Lenovo, Dell and HP) can do it directly through "BIOS" without needing to boot Windows? True? Any others? 2. How UEFI compatible is Debian Wheezy? What I'm running on the Desktop. Or is Jessie the better choice. Or something else entirely? Except Ubuntu variants (Hate it!). I don't want to run in Legacy mode for future compatibility. I won't be installing a desktop, just a window manager. Probably Openbox. Thanks. B -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
