- what you see in ifconfig output?

- did you try to ping by name or by IP?
Only if second works and first fail, you have DNS problem. If both fail,
there is nothing DNS related.

Actually, this is not correct. 

Ping tries to resolve IP addresses in it's output to symbolic names. If you 
have a DNS problem, then even pinging by IP can fail (usually it jsut gets 
"stuck" waiting for resolver to time out) unless you supply the options "-n" 
to ping.

probably you're right - I see "-n" key in ping's man,

Let me guess - you're makeing the test in a network that doesn't have reverse  
name resolution configured for it's IPs, right? :-)

It very much depends on the exact nature of the "breakage". Try this: put a an 
IP for the name server in /etc/resolv.conf which is a "black hole" - swallws 
all the packet you send to it, like in the case of a mis configured firewall 
and try to ping somwhere and you'll see what I mean.

 1st at all, you're right - by tcpdump I see NS queries for reverse NS; but for some

I did my test by putting wrong addresses as  NS in my resolv.conf.

Agree  - NS working as  "black hole"  may cause delays.

BUT: if we'll back to the original question, I still believe there is no DNS problem.

Debian Kernel 2.6 & bigphysarea

2004-05-06 Thread Nachum Kanovsky
I have been searching around for a while on the internet, and I haven't
found any good explanation on where bigphysarea went in debian's 2.6
kernels, and what I can use as an alternative.

Can anyone tell me how to go about allocating large physical memory for use
by dma and usermode programs. I used to use bigphysarea_alloc,
mem_map_reserve - and then for mapping I would set the vma to VM_LOCKED and
I would call remap_page_range.

What do I do with kernel 2.6 for this?

I'm might be smoking crack here, but I seem to remember that bigphysarea was 
an outside patch and not part of Linus vanilla kernel. Not sure about it 
though.

BTW, one extremly ugly trick you can do without this patch is to use the 
kernel boot parameter "mem=" to create a "hole" in the memory map that is 
managed by the kernel (same thing that happens for video card "stolen" 
memroy, really) and simply mem_map_reserve and remap_page_range it. But I 
wouldn't recomend going this way for anything which is not an embedded system 
that you have absolute control over and even then it's ugly.

Cheers,
Gilad

recommend a convenient way to find out what has changed in order to be
able to revert it. For the moment I use the tee command to save all
information from install in files, but it's rather unpractical.
1. If you use aptitude (my favourite, and I check synaptic from time to
time) then you should have a pretty useful log of "what has changed" in
/var/log/aptitude*.
2. If you install apt-listbugs then you'll get a chance to check all
bugs about a package and version before you actually install it (and
abort the install if you don't like what you see).
(My modus operandy these days is to mark all "upgradable packages" in
aptitude to "upgrade", tell it to "go do it", and if apt-listbugs shows
me any open bugs about a package I abort the install and mark this
package to "hold").
3. If after all this you need to go back to an older version of a
package and you can't find it in /var/cache/apt then you can look it
up in http://snapshot.debian.net/. It's a site which keeps ALL versions
of ALL packages ever uploaded to Debian (yes, it's pretty insane).
Don't give up just because of the wierd organization, eventually you'll
find the version you need somewere there.
