The bigger picture is: Who all are going to walk the walk? that is what is needed now. Maybe the next LUG meet could have a section on this and take this project up in a loosely formal way? If not, then some of us could get together in parallel and initiate the exercise? -abhishek __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

Help !!! Its Debian
by Rony Bill 23 Apr '05

Dear Friends, I have been trying to figure my way around in debian since last few days and have hit some trouble spots. The modem dials and tries to establish connection in wvdial but the last ok does not come and it disconnects. Kppp would not start in gui as it did not allow user access. Om going through the doc pages I found that it allows only those users who are in the 'dip' group. So I did the usermod -G dip user_name and got kppp running in user gui, but it does not detect my ext. modem on ttys0. The modem query fails. There is no ifcfg* file in debian. How does one setup the eth0? The sound system was not detected but the first time I played a vcd in totem media player, it gave picture and lower volume sound. but next day even that did not happen and I got the message 'cannot play cd even though pluggin is loaded'. During my modem setup I had messed with some files so I formatted and reloaded debian again but now totem has the same error right from start. No net, no movie, back to redhat. Any help apreciated. Debian's web archives have dates not subjects so I can't find my relavent topic unless I open all dates one by one. My first priority is getting the net up. Regards, Rony.

Dear Friends, Sorry to be bothering you again and again. I found this very good site http://www.aboutdebian.com/contents.htm and it is a comprehensive guide for debian setup. It provided the solution to the resolve problem. On connecting to the net, I had to add :- route add default ppp0 in the command line and this is my first mail from debian. Will go through the site before posting any other problems. Regards, Rony. Send instant messages to your online friends http://uk.messenger.yahoo.com

The right term is crackers. dont even bother to read an article which mistakes hackers for crackers. And the 2nd writer needs to be beaten with a gnu clue stick for wasting news print. Having source code according to this ah allows you to install backdoors and the example he badies is a compiler. I suppose one cant install a few trojaned libs on a closed source box. And the default install of all distros is insecure. Nevermind the worms and exploits that get you on a windows box and never get fixed ever. List dont waste time reading the shit.

How does one setup the eth0? append the following at the end of /etc/network/interfaces auto eth0 iface eth0 inet static address 192.168.0.10 netmask 255.255.255.0 network 192.168.0.0 broadcast 192.168.0.255 gateway 192.168.0.1 then run /etc/init.d/networking restart. ifconfig should show your network. your network configuration is in /etc/network/interfaces > > The sound system was not detected but the first time I > played a vcd in totem media player, it gave picture and > lower volume sound. You must have complete details of your hardware. What sound chipset. Also which boot option did you select while installing. rgds jtd

Dear Mr Milind, i am sorry if i hurt your feelings, but no one is blaming anything.. i am stuck somewhere and am askin for help... Guys :-- something strange tht i noticed, when i put only one RAM modules, then it would take the NIC, sata and everything. But when i put in 4 modules, the same thing again, it wont take the tg3.o module, in dmesg i saw tht it gave an error sayin something like unable to find pci resources. Is it linked with the RAM modules and memory allocation or something.. Any kind of assistance will be greatly appreciated guys. -- Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take; out by the moments that take our breath away. Regards and Thanks Santosh Rao
