I get that when I use 'sudo halt'

When I use 'sudo halt -p'  it powers off.

So I would suggest you look at the underlying command on the button of the
computer which do not power off and change the command.


Look at 'man shutdown'  for the options when you use 'shutdown'  in stead
of 'halt'.

"halt" is "shutdown" -- at least from where you are shooting. From halt's
man page:

 If halt or reboot is called when the system is not in runlevel
 0 or 6, in other words  when  it's  running  normally, shutdown
 will be invoked instead (with the -h or -r flag). For more info
 see the shutdown(8) manpage.

I agree, it should be in the options. That said, one of the systems I take
care of *sometimes* ends up in this state (i.e. "Reached target ..."), but
most of the time actually powers off.

Since it's a desktop I told the users that it's safe to power off the thing
when in this state and filed it under "unsolved hardware/init system quirks".

Re: shutdown fails to power off host

2017-01-17 Thread Hans
I remember this discussion from sime time ago. Debian has changed a real 
poweroff from "halt" to "halt -p". The second one is according to the manual.

As far as I remeber, "shutdown" is just a wrapper fpr the halt command, but I 
am not quite sure. 

But one thing was cleared: To poweroff a debian systenm, the command "halt -p" 
is recommended.

Besides: This behaviour is also now in kali linux integrated, which was also 
using the command "halt" for a long time. But now it's "halt -p", too, also on 
the livefile.

LXDE lost menus

2017-01-17 Thread Hans
Hi all,

it looks like there is a bug in famous LXDE. After an update all menus are 
gone. There is already filed a bugreport to kali-linux, but I want to mention 
it for debian, too.

If LXDE users did not not notice it, then it is because of cached files. If you 
move ~/.cache/* away, then the menus are not rebuild again.

WARNING: For testing backup the cached files, so you can return them back, 
otherwise it will brick your LXDE.

Do the LXDE developers know of this? Shall we file another bugreport to the 
LXDE maintainers?

Best regards

Hans

I suffer from one of these unsolved quirks. Occasionally my machine will
shutdown correctly but will not power off. I have detected no
discernible pattern (or discerned no detectable pattern).

I power the machine off manually when the quirk occurs.

Me too. Sid on LVM2, AMD video on Giga MB, fails maybe 10%-20% of
shutdowns. The small amount of evidence suggests trouble dismounting the
hard drive, with the device mapper showing an unknown number of devices
having failed to clear, and no sound of the heads parking. Replacing
the hard drive (just age, not for this problem) has improved speeds of
some actions, and not changed this behaviour at all.

There is also trouble booting sometimes, which appears not to correlate
at all with the shutdown trouble. I think that is something to do with
video driving, but I can't get any kind of evidence for that, either,
other than that it always crashes when the display switches from low-res
text to high-res text. Nothing in any log, nothing at all to put in a
bug report. Hey, it's sid.

Recovering from failure to install Grub

2017-01-17 Thread Richard Owlett

I just installed Jessie to a USB flash drive.
Unfortunately I mistyped the name of the preseed.cfg file and ran 
the one which did not install grub to the target drive.
On a working Jessie machine I inserted the flash drive and then 
ran update-grub.
I was then able to boot the copy of Debian residing on the flash 
drive.
It appears to run properly and is now installing some packages 
that intentionally had not been installed by preseeding.


Looking for instructions for installing Grub to an existing drive 
I found
https://wiki.debian.org/Installation+Archive+USBStick?highlight=%28grub-install%29|%28jessie%29 
.


It was written to address a different situation.
It seems to say that all I have to do is run

  /usr/sbin/grub-install --boot-directory=/boot 
/dev/sdb


Is that correct for my situation?

TIA





Re: Recovering from failure to install Grub

2017-01-17 Thread Hans
Hi Richard,

try to boot from super-grub-disk by using its kernel. If your debian boots on 
the harddrive boots, run update-grub on the booted system. This should fix your 
harddrive. Super-grub-disk has also some options, to restore grub.

If this all fails, you can try the same way by using RIP-Livefile (aka Rescue-
is-possible livefile cd.)

These are my preferred rescue tools.

Good luck,

Hans

I had already done that. It added the image on the flash drive to 
the boot menu.
The image on the flash appears to run fine and is installing 
several packages I need for my current project.

I would not describe what has to be done a "restore grub" as grub 
had never been installed to the flash drive.


I'll dig thru the rescue disks I have to see which are available.

Memory Upgrade for Ancient Enspiron 2600

2017-01-17 Thread Martin McCormick
I have an old Dell Enspiron 2600 which still works but it only
has 256 MB of RAM. I am of the understanding that the 128-MB
memory card under the little door on the bottom can be replaced
with a 512 MB card and that pretty much does it. There is another
128 MB block under the keyboard but I think for what I was
planning to do with it, 640 MB is sufficient.

It actually has a 2009 version of vinux which is a port
of debian optamized for people who are blind so it talks and
works  with text applications but there is no memory left for
much of anything else.

Just for fun, I ran the free application after bootup and
out of 256 MB, there are 193 MB available as long as you don't
dare run anything.

Just for fun, I booted a newer version of linux which did
come up but after booting the live CD, there was a whapping 4.5
MB left.

My wife used this machine in college running Windows in
2000 with just that 256 MB but this is a different world today so
my question is what should one expect to pay for a 512-meg DIM
card that, of course, would work in this system?

The speed printed on the module is 133 MHZ and the
processor is near 1 GHZ so it is certainly not cutting edge by
todays standards but it would have more uses with more RAM. It
would almost be a raspberry pi.:-)

Thanks for your thoughts.

Hi,

Thanks for the suggestions and insight to the problem.

In my case:

1.  The problem was with *any* "shutdown", from the command line, via
halt or shutdown, or through menus of the window system.

2.  The comment by j...@jretrading.com about unmount issues rings a bell,
I think I saw something about failure to sync at one point.

3.  I did try 'halt -p', same result.

4.  There have been two or three updates since I sent my original
question, and the system is now halting and powering off as expected.

Bob

I have an old Dell laptop--not as old as yours--that came with 1 GB ram, 
and the user manual says you can only run 2GB. (It had two sockets, one 
empty.)  I found two 2GB cards
each designed for that Dell, and plugged both in, and now I have about 
3.2 GB of usable ram. Not 4, for 3.2 is better than 2! So try to get at 
least 1GB in your machine, or maybe more,

who knows? It won't blow up the machine, it may just not work.

You may have asked the wrong question. Because that model is so old, RAM to fit 
it is plentiful. On http://www.ebay.com/itm/321774526573 you could buy a pair of 
256M sticks for $7.99 delivered, but you need to be sure of the exact RAM type 
to buy and compatibility before being concerned with price. From what I see on 
eBay searching for Inspiron SODIMM, you should be able to get what you need for 
under $10.



The speed printed on the module is 133 MHZ and the
processor is near 1 GHZ so it is certainly not cutting edge by

Good chance a 512M stick would not be compatible. Try going to Dell's support 
site and plug in the 7 character service code from the bottom of the 2600 as a 
start to getting exactly the information you need to start on the road to a 
successful upgrade.

The older Dell I wrote about is an Inspiron E1505. I am very sure of 
what I wrote about.

(4 meg ram, providing an actual usable 3.2 meg.)
Incidentally, that same machine that came with a 32 bit processor can

processor, which I did. It requires updating the BIOS also. Now it runs 
64 bit PCLinuxOS, and would
run 64 bit Windows, If I had an spare 64 bit copy of Windows to put on 
it, and if I cared. The conversion
information is available on the 'net. I don't have an URL right at hand 
to pass on. The conversion
to 64 bit requires a significant disassembly and reassembly of the 
machine! If you're not handy

out of 256 MB, there are 193 MB available as long as you don't
dare run anything.



Just for fun, I booted a newer version of linux which did
come up but after booting the live CD, there was a whapping 4.5
MB left.



My wife used this machine in college running Windows in
2000 with just that 256 MB but this is a different world today so
my question is what should one expect to pay for a 512-meg DIM
card that, of course, would work in this system?


You may have asked the wrong question. Because that model is so old, 
RAM to fit it is plentiful. On http://www.ebay.com/itm/321774526573 
you could buy a pair of 256M sticks for $7.99 delivered, but you need 
to be sure of the exact RAM type to buy and compatibility before being 
concerned with price. From what I see on eBay searching for Inspiron 
SODIMM, you should be able to get what you need for under $10.



The speed printed on the module is 133 MHZ and the
processor is near 1 GHZ so it is certainly not cutting edge by
todays standards but it would have more uses with more RAM. It
would almost be a raspberry pi.:-)


Good chance a 512M stick would not be compatible. Try going to Dell's 
support site and plug in the 7 character service code from the bottom 
of the 2600 as a start to getting exactly the information you need to 
start on the road to a successful upgrade.

Re: shutdown fails to power off host

Just a thought...

I'm running Debian Jessie and I see the same behavior with my Thinkpad 
T500.

In my case the reason is the Network Manager. I have 2 NFS shares mounted 
over Wifi. The Network Manager stops Wifi before unmounting the NFS 
shares. This leads to a long time out. After that, I see the "Reached 
target Shutdown" message and the system in still powered.

I have to unmount the NFS volumes first and than I can shutdown the 
system.
