Debian Multimedia :: Finding A GNOME/GTK CPUFreq Setting Front-end
Dec 25, 2010Sometime back I installed cpufreq. Now while I know quite little about cpufreq, what little I understand tells me it can do two things :-
a. Give the user the capability to change frequencies - there is something called max frequencies and minimum frequencies and the user can play between them.
b. Show the cpufrequencies via the GNOME cpufreq plugin/applet.
Now while its able to show me the frequencies, I'm not able to find a GNOME or GTK front-end which I can use to set the frequencies. I did read a little bit about something called 'governers' which from what I learnt are something similar to profiles - as in you want to be conservative, powersave, ondemand and performance.
1. I'm looking for a Gnome-GTK CPU setting frequency GUI.
2. If somebody wants to share more info. about the whole cpu frequency thing that is also very welcome as I'm not really aware as to how can I do things a bit more intelligently so I'm able to get a bit more performance while not using much energy (can be done or cannot be done ?) but that discussion hopefully comes later after I've a tool through which I can do the same in GUI.

Debian Configuration :: Gnome Power Manager Display Setting Not Respected?
May 19, 2011Despite having the Gnome Power Manager set to put the display to seep after 30 minutes, it always happens after 5 minutes. The display will go blank but still lit, and then it powers off after the 30 minutes. Surely, if I set it to 30 minutes, the display should power off then, and not just blank after 5? I have no screensaver packages installed so it's nothing to do with that.

View 1 Replies View RelatedHardware :: AM3 Motherboard Recommendations For Debian Lenny?
Jan 9, 2011I'm going to be building a new development workstation for myself. It's going to be used primarily for web development (Perl, C++, Apache, MySQL), everyday browsing, and as a MySQL slave to a server which runs a moderately busy community website (slaves generally have to be fairly powerful to keep up, since they run as a single threaded process). I am not a gamer. I'd like to run Debian stable (currently that's Lenny, 2.6.26) because it's what's on my production server, and my dev workstation is a testing environment so I like to have the same version of the OS as the server if possible. I'll also be occasionally running Windows 7 on this machine, either in a dual boot or VM, mostly just for when I have to test something on the site against IE.
I've been liking the look of the AMD Phenom II X4 processors, though I'm not sure that I really need four cores - but in my experience you should get slightly above what you think you need now, because otherwise whatever you get will inevitably look pretty anemic in a couple of years. Someone mentioned that if I get 4 cores then I can dedicate two cores to Windows in a VM, which makes sense. I'm thinking 8GB of RAM, seems like a good amount for allowing plenty of room for running VMs of Windows 7.
The motherboard choice is difficult. The ASUS M4A78T-E is a possibility, but it's had issues in the past with memory speeds. Besides, I see the newer standards coming out, like the ASUS M4A89GTD PRO, which has SATA 6GB/s and USB3.0 - well, first of all will it work with Debian Lenny, and second of all am I going to see any actual benefit from those new SATA and USB speeds in the near future? I don't use SSD, just standard SATA drives.
Oh, I should also mention that I'm trying to build as silent a system as possible - so that means as few fans as possible. So I'm looking at motherboards currently with integrated graphics, which (I assume) means no extra fans.
Any recommendations on the motherboard choice? Something nice and fast, preferably with the newer SATA and USB specs, but works with Debian Lenny. Is that unreasonable? If so, what do people recommend that is rock solid with Lenny, with regular SATA 3GB/s and USB 2.0?
Debian Hardware :: Migrating Hard Drives To New Motherboard?
Jan 19, 2016I am currently thinking about moving my debian install onto another more powerful motherboard/processor/ram amount. My question is how difficult will the move be?
I have done some reading on cloning and or moving. It seems like moving is the best bet,
[URL]
It looks like its as simple as moving the harddrive. But what about multiple hardrives with LVM set up? I also realize I will probably have to find the network drivers for the new motherboard. There's probably other drivers that will need to be installed as well. What would need to be configured in terms of VM set up?
The former set up is,
Asus MB with i3 and 8GB of ram 3 hard drives
VLM set up
samba server for the local windows machines
Virtual Box with one VM - Win 7
SNTP server set up to serve the home network.
SSH with keys
VirtualBox PHP
Transmission for torrents
Plex and Subsonic (for remote streaming), other assorted packages
New Set up is,
Intel mobo with i5 and 16 GB of ram
-I would literally be moving the hard drives into this computer

Apr 27, 2015Software: Debian Wheezy (minimal base system)
Hardware: Dell Optiplex GX620, 360GB SATA HDD, Ralink NIC (driver installed), I forget the graphics card.
Primary concern: Installing Gnome 3 from a USB.
Secondary concern: I can't establish a connection to the internet via ethernet or my Wifi card. When I try Code: Select allping -c 3 www.google.com the output tells me 3 packages were transmitted and 0 were received. It seems to have something to do with my router (Arris) not being DHCP-endabled?
I'm currently reading a couple of books to try and learn how to use CLIs with Linux but I am still new and largely ignorant of how to do anything. I tried messing with Arch, that didn't work very well. I've been googling these issues but I can't figure anything out or find anything relevant. I've been using Ubuntu for a couple of years and have a basic understanding of Linux and I'm working on a basic understanding of computers.
As far as getting a .deb package onto a usb of Gnome or whatever desktop environment goes I think I can manage that by myself. I just have no clue how to actually install something from a USB, especially from a command line interface.
Debian :: Apt-get Cannot Install Gnome Or Anything Else?
Jan 1, 2010I wanted to try out another distro of linux since I am a big fan of Ubuntu. I've only been using Ubuntu for a year now but still kinda new to true linux distros.Anyways my problem is actually concerning Xebian, a modified stripped down customized version of Debian for the original xbox. It is basically Debian but configured differently and repackaged, it still uses Debian.org repos.More info found on: Code: xbox-linux.org/wiki/Xebian_HOWTO After successfully installing Xebian to my xbox, I wanted to change the current desktop (not really sure what it is but it lacks a gui file explorer) to Gnome.
I run as root: Code: apt-get install gnome It takes about 2hrs to install but then as its doing it it removes vital packages such as x11-common, Xfree86, xorg-server. Then it cannot install anything else and whenever I try to run another apt-get install command to install say gdm, it says it depends on some of these packages but it is not going to install it. Also I find that gnome is not installed. So basically it removes vital packages, screws up the system and doesn't install what I wanted.So I reboot but then it cannot boot again into any gui desktop. I try apt-get but I cannot install anything like before. I need apt-get to really start using my computer/xbox.I found something that fixes the error that says I am unable to connect to non-us.debian.org when I run an apt-get update but I can't find the page:
Anyways that doesn't work, I've also found these links that seem promising which I will try tomorrow: Code: forums.xbox-scene.com/index.php?showtopic=680973

Ubuntu Installation :: Install Fails On Asus P8H67 Motherboard / Get It?
Apr 6, 2011I just assembled a new computer with Intel Core I3 processor and Asus P8H67 motherboard and 4 MB of memory. It has a 2TB Hitachi Deskstar Hard Drive and Asus DVD. I am trying to load Ubuntu 10.10 directly (without first loading Windows) without success.
I have tried 4 separate downloads of Ubuntu - 64 bit, 32 bit with Desktop and Alternative. I have changed a variety of parameters and various tricks suggested on other threads. The Desktop (32 and 64) versions get me to Busybox shell with message (Initramfs) Unable to find a medium using live file system. The Alternative version hangs with the messages:
RAMDISK: Couldn't find valid RAM image startgin at 0;
No filesystem could mount root, tried ext3, ext2, ext4, fuseblk;
Kernal panic - not syncing VHS;
Unable to mount root fs on unkown block(1,0).
For parameters I think have tried them all (but not in all combinations). I tried exiting twice from BusyBox as suggested on forums but that just hangs the system. I also turn off the quiet and splash to try and see what is going on....but it is too complex and goes to fast for me to follow.
A final suggestion was that the P8H67 is too new for Ubuntu 10.10 and to try the new version 11 coming out...I am new to Linux and reluctant to try a Beta

Dec 30, 2010I have gnome installed and want to install KDE as well to be able to run them both. As I understand from searching the web, I should be able to install KDE and at boot I will be able to choose which DE to start.
You are supposed to just run:
su [password ]
apt-get install kde
But I get dependencies errors, translated from swedish so it is not exact:
kde:
Dependencies: kde-core (>=5:47) but will not be installed
Dependencies: kdeaddons (>= 4:3.5.5) but will not be installed
Dependencies: kdenetwork (>= 4:3.5.5) but will not be installed
Dependencies: kdetoys (>= 4:3.5.5) but will not be installed
If I check kde-core the version is: 5:48. If I try to install kde-core first I get another bunch of dependencies errors... so I seem to go in circles.
I am running Lenny 5.0.7 amd64.
