Dear Debian Users,

Do you need more help?X

I've been trying for a long time to record from my sound card's PCM out to a Wave file. I've tried many things, but all I get is silence! :-)

Anyway, let me make a
start. http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php/Record_from_pcm is what I have been referring to, but my sound card does not seem to have the Mix control at all. The other (Capture etc.) controls are OK, and I get no error, but the sound just doesn't record.

Could you please give me some pointers?

Thanks.

Kumar

Of course, if I lose all copies of the dongle, being able to do maintenance isn't terribly useful... Besides, the truly paranoid understand that someone could slip a keylogger into /usr/bin/perl! Ideally,

Hi,

I've just installed etch and python2.4 and 2.5 pakcage there. By default python bin in /usr/bin are linked to 2.4's but I like to switch them to 2.5.
of course I could do this manually
but that's a bit boring thing to do.
Is there any way of dong this job Debian way?

Thanks in advance.

Seriously. Upgrading within X works just fine.

Message-Id: <200712091944.09824.rdorsch@web.de> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Content-Disposition: inline Hello, I prepared an 1 GB USB stick as installation medium for etch (wanted to use it as rescue "disk"). I followed the instructions on http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/ch04s04.html.en I followed "4.4.2. Copying the files =E2=80=94 the flexible way" since I ha= d a 1GB stick and I could use a full CD image this way. I have taken vmlinuz and initrd.img from ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/etch/main/installer-i386/current/images/h= d- media (that was not entirely clear for me from the description on the page though). syslinux.cfg I created myself with the two lines default vmlinuz append initrd=3Dinitrd.gz The system booted nicely from the USB stick. First strange issue is that the installer needed two iteration to find the ISO image on the stick. The first iteration failed, then I selected the entry manually from the installation menu. The I got a message *********** Load installer components from an ISO Installer No kernel modules were found. This probalby is due to a mismatch between the kernel used by this version of the installer and the kernel available in the archive.... ************* Are the kernels in the iso image and the hd-media in fact out of sync? Did I miss something else?

Sorry that you missed seeing it. I hope it helps you. I had a similar problem. I created a Mondo DVD (from Debian Etch stable) and received the same "copy to floppies" message when attempting to boot. I solved the problem by creating a new Mondo ISO image *while a CD was mounted*. With a CD mounted, the modules needed to support the CD drive will be included in the ISO. After the ISO is created, unmount the CD and use a blank CD/DVD to burn the ISO image. There are instructions for using the "cdrecord" command in the Mondo how-to. http://www.mondorescue.org/docs/mondorescue-howto.html Judging from a search of the Mondo mailing list archive, this seems to be a common error message. I believe there have been other causes for it. I am definitely not a Mondo expert.

Although it didn't make sense to me, I tried the suggestion above and got the same results. I mentioned in the original post that I get the same results even if I burn the backup directly to CD or DVD. Mondo would know about the cdrom if it's using it to make the backup. Any other suggestions out there? Thanks - John

Message-Id: <200712081137.11704.hal@thresholddigital.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline There are times when I'm at a client's system and I need to access my home computer to tell it to resend data or do something similar so I've just ssh'ed in to my home computer from outside. My firewall forwards a port to my workstation and there's no need to go into the rest of the security details. Basically, with my current ISP, I can just ssh to my home system. I also have a few computers at client's sites that I may need to reach that are behind firewalls, so I have a system where I can post a connection request to a web page, those computers will see it, and issue a command like this (with the variables replaced, of course): ssh -l $user -nNT -R $port:localhost:22 $domain >/dev/null 2>&1 & Then when it creates the reverse ssh tunnel, I can login to that system through the tunnel. I don't want to go into issues with my current ISP, but I would like to switch to Verizon FiOS for a number of reasons. I'd rather not have to pay the extra for a static IP and the ability to run a web server. I considered it, but then *I* have to maintain that server and it's roughly $50 a month more than what I'd be paying for home service. My current hosting company (Westhost) charges me something like $10-$12 a month. While it'd be nice to host my sites here in terms of some conveniences, the price and security hassle outdoes the benefit. The one issue with Verizon is that I see in their ToS that I can't run any kind of server on my account and I know they block at least port 80. I don't plan to use port 80, but if I lost the ability to ssh into my home computer, it'd hurt in terms of extra on-sight trips. Is there some way to have two systems use ssh and "meet" in the middle, at a relay site, then form a direct connection? I could use my hosting site as a relay, but sometimes ssh connections have a latency issue, so once I made a connection, I'd want to find a way to create a direct connection. If that can't be done, I'm open to other suggestions. Thanks! Hal

I've used aptitude since 2004 and, despite noise on the lists to the contrary, I've never had a problem with it. I've used both the ncurses interface, which I've found useful for package descriptions/searches/etc., and terminal interaction and never found a problem with either facility. All this with X running on anything up to eleven windows. I think the problem lies a little deeper, perhaps even hardware. Regards, David
