I changed the driver from e100 to eepro100 with no change in network =
speed.



Even when I use the on-board NIC (Marvell) I get slow speeds so I don't =
think it's related to the driver of the NIC.


Could the IRQ that my NIC is assigned make a difference? I also noticed =
for the 'cat /proc/interrupts' that PCLinuxOS is using IO-APIC-level vs =
Debian's IO-APIC-fasteoi. Could that be my problem and how can I change =


it?

Subject: Slow Network Connection


=20


I just purchased a Shuttle XPC SN27P2 barebones system.
Chipset: North Bridge - Nvidia nForce 570 Ultra
Onboard NIC: Marvell 88E1116(10/100/1000Mbps) - I also added a Intel =
Dual-Server NIC and disabled the Marvell



I tried installing Debian 4.0r0, 4.0r1 and a nightly test build and they =
all suffer from the same problem; an extremely slow connection to the =
internet (about dial-up speed - I have a 5Meg cable connection).



Yet, if I boot off of a PCLinuxOS Live CD the network works perfectly.



I've changed cables and network cards with no luck. I'm hoping someone =
here will see something that I've overlooked.



Thank you.

Good to know, marking as fixed in 6.7.194 then.

Hi,



  1.   I have copied my Debian CDs to hard-disk and have added the
required sources.list lines. The problem is that, when i do a apt-get
install pkg, it tries to load from the internet since they have the
latest pkg. Since i pay for data transfer, i was wondering if there
was a way to tell apt-get to use file:/ instead of the net?




Obviously i don't want to hash out my http:// and ftp:// source.list,
lines because i do install from the net from time to time - also,
every time i hash in the net lines  apt will redownload meta-data and
upto 5-6MB goes waste.



dpkg -i /verylongPath is not an option - i want this working in aptget.




2. Is there a way to tell the debian kernel module not to load certain
modules. Blacklisting doesn't seem to be the right way from what i
understood of the man modprobe.conf page. I've got pcspkr, rtc, ipv6,
ali_agp, processor etc loaded and i don;t want to rmmod them - i'd
rather not have them load. Is there any way to do this?



I am using Debian Etch, kernel -2.6.18-5-486.

Thanks for the pointers.   It helped.  The http://localhost:631 gets
farther.


Had to log in as printer admin which I have been using root login-id.
I went through the pages and it allowed me to choose vendor Hewlett-



Then choose HP2100 (there wasn't a HP2100TN network printer) and
then choose drive and I chose HP2100+gutenprint.
The webpage reads "connection to the server at localhost:631."



Looks like cups died when adding a printer:
$ ps auxww | egrep cups


user   9994  0.0  0.0   1760   552 ttyp0    S+   22:12   0:00 grep -E
cups



Printer is still there:

 Printer still working for windows but not for linux.
When it installed on windows it gave it a name beginning with IPP.
Anybody got any other things I can debug or try to type?
Thanks

Thought I'd just mention that the default Tomcat 5.5 install with Debian 
Etch is setup to use 128MB, and this can be changed in the init.d script 
(tomcat5.5):

# Set java.awt.headless=true if CATALINA_OPTS is not set so the
# Xalan XSL transformer can work without X11 display on JDK 1.4+
# It also looks like the default heap size of 64M is not enough for most 


cases


# se the maximum heap size is set to 128M
if [ -z "$CATALINA_OPTS" ]; then


        CATALINA_OPTS="-Djava.awt.headless=true -Xmx128M"
fi

I use package 'slocate' instead of 'locate':



/-----------


$ aptitude show slocate


Package: slocate


[snip]


Description: Secure replacement of findutil's locate
 This locate can index all files on your system, but only files and
directories which the invoking user has access
 to will be displayed.



 Note: If your computer is not up 24/7 you should consider installing
anacron since the database is only updated
 once a night.


\-----------



Usage is like for locate, ie. I type locate, but it will execute slocate.


HTH,


Johannes

I was able to fix it. Apparently if the error occurs, it doesn't
install the package at all. So I put the necessary dirs in root's path
and ran 'aptitude install' again for the failed packages and it was
ok.


Thanks.

Hello Preston,

what version of debian are you talking about? On a P133, 32MB, Dell Lapto=

it seemed to me that the last Debian version usable (speed...) was Potato=

I just upgraded our server to Etch but now I see there are line

Is this something to worry about?

[I'm not a security expert and I don't follow this in every detail, so
take my statements carefully and with a grain of salt. ]

I personally view it this way:
- - upstream replace each mozilla-* version with a new version. This means
that at the same time a security issue is fixed, a new one may arise due
to new features etc.
- - for each security issue discovered, debian carefully checks whether it
affects the version in stable. If so, the issue gets fixed and it is
rather unlikely that 'new' security holes are introduced this way.

I can't ultimately tell by hard facts, which approach is more secure,
but my experience with debian's approach has been good.

You could also run stable etch and install firefox et al. from mozilla's
website... I think that even includes an automatic update feature. (Have
never tried this myself, though.)

YMMV, HTH, best wishes!

I haven't followed the thread, but I am using an hp2100tn with Debian
testing and CUPS.  The device URI is specified as:

    ipp://192.168.0.66/ipp/

The printer has a Postscript module, so the make is specified as "raw"
and the model as "Raw Queue (en)".

The HPJetDirect interface of the printer requires a DHCP server.  For
this, I use my firewall machine, which is running SmoothWall Express
2.0.  But I prefer to use static ip addresses within the LAN, so I
specified the MAC address of the HPJetDirect interface to SmoothWall
and reserved the address 192.168.0.66 for the printer.
