I have an Acer Aspire 7720Z, and running Debian Squeeze/Sid. My problem is the cpu fan is not working, and I don't have a clue how to solve the problem. When the CPU temperature becomes too high, the laptop stops, so it's very annoying. I can't compile anything, or run an "heavy" software.
The fan is working, just after the boot before grub menu or under Windows Vista there is no problem so that is not a hardware problem.
I've installed lm-sensors, the output is
acpitz-virtual-0
Adapter: Virtual device
I installed debian etch on my system. Installation done successfully, but when it boots up the X server is not starting and showing error. Note : It is perfectly working with debian lenny. Configuration : Intel DG41RQ ,1GB Ram ,160GB HDD.

No matter what I try I just cant get cron working for me on my Squeeze setup I can type /usr/bin/soffice and openoffice will fire up no problem but put into a crontab and nothing for instance just to test if crontab is working I have this/5 * * * * /usr/bin/sofficeIn y user crontab but nothing happens I have run as root crontab -u djt crontab And after editing the crontab with crontab -e it says it is installing crontab but it just does nothing Unfortunately I am connected to my works network so unable to receive internal mail from cron so cant find any reason for it not working
I just updated to a new Kernel, in Squeeze. So far everything seems to be working properly but NetworkManager. It shows that I am not connected but I obviously am because I am posting this thread. When I click on the icon in the bar by the clock, with active applications, it does not show any networks available, even though I have wireless and networking enabled
I use my debian machine for masquerading, packet filtering anilar for a tiny network.It runs the latest debian testing.Every now and then (i am talking about weeks) the connection to my internet stops working.ifdown eth0; ifup eth0 brings it back.The other interface (eth1) is never effected.The odd thing is, there are no warnings, no messages .. nothing.I cant find any entry. Nothing in the logs, nothing in dmsg and no kernel panic.The only way to find out when it might have been happened is to search in several daemons log files,to find out when their first error connecting to the internet occurred.I ran memtest without any results.The nic is e1000 compatible.
I installed Debian Squeeze yesterday and I got almost everything working except for the backspace key in any browser I've tried..I'm running it on HP Mini 210 if that can help w/ something and one more i tried upgrading it to testing but a verry long and boring text file appears and to close it and continue, i have to press the end button the problem is that i do not have one .. i've tried every single other key on the keyboard - still nothing.
In order to save power and to cool down my Debian system a little bit, I installed cpufregs the other day and changed it the cpu gonever to on_demand.
Well I came back to the box today and powertop tells me that the cpu has been running at 2.66ghz (max freq) for 99/99% of the time.
Running cpufreq says this: Code: analyzing CPU 0: driver: p4-clockmod CPUs which need to switch frequency at the same time: 1 hardware limits: 333 MHz - 2.67 GHz
I recently installed Squeeze, installed several applications via the package manager and almost universally, the help menus don't function. Flash is installed and works for Iceweasal, at least I can watch a ..... vid.
I have XP and win 7. I want to triple boot with Debian.When I install, grub finds win 7 and XP and says everything should be fine, but then when I boot, only debian appears.This was fixed by doing update-grub2 after logging in.Now, I have win 7 bootloader as an option. However, when I boot into XP, and then reboot, grub disappers. he screen just says welcome to grub and then a blinking cursor.
I have Inceweasel 31.8.0 installed on LXDE Debian Wheezy and I am trying to make AdBlock Plus work. The thing is that I get pop-ups from any site, Youtube ad videos, etc. all the time, just like I have nothing installed to prevent that.
I tried:
- Installing AdBlock from Iceweasel add-ons, with a suscription to easylist ; - installing xul-ext-adblock-plus (also with the same suscription).
With each configuration or even with none of them, I get the same results as described above. Is there anything I can do ?
By the way, I don't get Youtube ad videos on Chromium with Adblock installed through the Chrome webstore.
php5-memcached is working without problems but has no igbinary support.

Code: Select allwget https://pecl.php.net/get/memcached-2.2.0.tgz tar -xzvf memcached-2.2.0.tgz cd memcached-2.2.0 phpize ./configure --enable-memcached-igbinary make make test make install
And also put Code: Select allextension = /usr/lib/php5/20131226/memcached.so in the php.ini
After installing 3.5.6 from backports, applets stopped working. I installed the java-6-sun package but it's still not making it. Searched google but haven't found anything but some bug fixes. Also saw something about ipv6, but not sure if that's related. That seemed to affect java programs. I use jedit and that is working fine. I downloaded the latest SDK from Sun and created a link from /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins and /usr/lib/iceweasel/plugins and /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins to /opt/SDK/jdk/jre/plugin/i386/ns7-gcc29/libjavaplugin_oji.so. Prior to the update to 3.5.6, the plugins were working and I could get the ..... stuff etc.
Install openssh so that I can access my desktop (192.168.1.100) from my laptop (192.168.1.200) using konqueror with "fish".Googled and read that the sshd_config should be updated to enhance security.Tried fiddling with sshd_config on the desktop and hit a brick wall.Before setting ListenAddress 192.168.1.200 in sshd_config, the laptop can access the desktop with problem.However, after setting it, the laptop is not able to access the desktop.
If I recall correctly, my Squeeze desktop is working whereas my Squeeze laptop isn't.

There should be the suspend and hibernate buttons in th System Menu, but there is only two options, Shut down and Log off.Also, in the Power Manager Preferences window, it has no option for suspend and hibernate.
I downloaded cd1 of amd64 debian os. Its not booting from the CD. There are no problems with the drive or the laptop. I have successfully installed ubuntu from its cd image booting from the CD-ROM drive.
I would need your help to solve some problems that came after upgrading to Squeeze:first: xserver is not working. When I manually launch startx I got an error message: vesa kernel modesetting driver in use refusing to load no screens found
I'm a huge keyboard shortcut fan. I can't stand mice. So this is a big one for me.
My Alt+F10 (maximize) and Alt+F9 (minimize) keyboard shortcuts work just fine. I read everywhere (i.e., [URL]) that the Alt+F5 combo should unmaximize a maximized window. But it's not working. Can't find anything that says Debian excludes that combo.
Is this to be expected or is something amiss? I think its meant to be a default shortcut, so don't want to start playing around with customizations prematurely.
Searched through the forum, couldn't find anything under the following search terms: Alt F5; Alt+F5: Alt +F5: Alt-F5: maximize: unmaximize. Did I miss the magic string?
I installed debian 8.1.0 (netinist-i386) in my laptop at work using ethernet (installed mate desktop). At home I do not have such thing, so I should use my phone connection. I can not use wifi due to b43-firmware. I use usb tethering as my only solution. Now I connected to my phone but do jot have internet access in laptop. ping http://www.google.com or 8.8.8.8 or any other address says destination host unreachable,
ifconfig shows usb0 is ok

After running a dist-upgrade (from stable to testing) KDE stopped working, all I get (after login in with lightdm) are the modals you can see in the attachments [1]. I do not think it is an X issue, because I can login using lightdm (and MATE is working fine).
I suspect this is because I had KDE installed before running the upgrade. The things I tried so far are:
- Runing "apt-get remove kdelibs-bin kdelibs5-data" . Then "apt-get autoremove". I did it to remove every KDE related package, after that, I ran "aptitude purge '~c' " to clean all config files. And finally "apt-get install kde-standard" to get KDE again. - Removed .cache, .config and .kde folders. Also removed .lock files in .config folder, as I saw somewhere. - Looked for some log files, but I could not find anything (I don't even know where to look really )
This is almost a fresh debian install so I don't mind breaking things, but I would like to get KDE working.
Two years ago I setup a small ARM based home server running Debian 7, the system ran an automated sftp backup from my phone, a transmission server and a VPN (open vpn).So anyway I upgraded my home PC and also upgraded the ARM home server to a GB-BXBT-1900 as I wanted to run some VM's.My only issue is that I have been unable to get transmission working the way i want it... For example I run my OS from a USB3 32GB sandisk drive, I then have a 500GB 2.5 laptop hard drive to store my VM's and transmission files, the VM's run perfectly fine when directed to read and write to the sata drive but no matter what I do I am unable to change the default transmission download directory.The moment i do this the download will start, hit around 4MB then pause.Amended chmod and chown on the directory ie /mnt/500/Downloads, also usermod -a -G debian-transmission myuser but nothing I do seems to work, if i leave it all to its default directorys on the USB drive it works but i just cant get this to work on the mounted drive.
I am a Debian beginner, have installed my first fileserver a year or two ago for my uncle's business and now really getting into using it and learning about Debian. I didn't install it with a GUI available as I knew I would get lazy and never get around to learning how to work on the console.
I need to setup backups to a locally attached tape drive. For backups of the server I'm trying to install Mondo Rescue : [URL]
I've always loved the apt-get utility built into Debian but I'm having issues when I try to : apt-get install mondo
I get the response: Reading Package Lists... Done Building Dependency Tree... Done E: Couldn't find package mondo
I've got Debian version 3.1
If I google for this error I seem to run back to links for Ubuntu, which I'm not sure if it is relevant?
