Debian Hardware :: No Eth In Ifconfig After Putting Old Jessie
Jan 24, 2016
I'm using Debian Jessie (with YunoHost v2). Recently the PC on which I had installed it stopped working (power supply dead) so I put the hard disk in another PC. The system seems to start up correctly but I cannot see the ethernet and wlan interfaces in ifconfig (only lo).
The old PC was an Asus EeePC 1001 HA. The new one is an Acer 5920G. I ran Linux (Mandriva) on it in the past with no difficulty.
lspci shows this:
Code: Select all06:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG [Golan] Network Connection (rev 02)
08:00.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetLink BCM5787M Gigabit Ethernet PCI Express (rev 02)
I read on the Web that BCM5787M uses for driver tg3 and this appears in lsmod:
Code: Select alltg3 154678 0
ptp 17462 1 tg3
pps_core 17080 1 ptp
libphy 27468 1 tg3

I am talking about this :-
Code: Select all[$] sudo cp debian-8.1.0-amd64-netinst.iso /dev/sdb
This is from [URL] ....
I could do two things :-
a. Do a pv and see if that works the same ?
b. Do an alias for pv which is cp
PV seems wrong when trying to copy an .iso image for booting.

I have a problem with the network. Worth two network cards and Ian wan. Do not take the ip. When the system boots not included until you do the command ifconfig eth0 up. The network card is connected to a router, he does not see it. Router working, tested. Network card is working well, tested on Windows. RX RT packages go, withheld support for ipv6 and packages no longer go.

I have my X11 setup configured to rotate 90s counterclockwise for a portrait monitor. But when the system turns on, it's in the framebuffer console which is set to landscape mode. Is there a way to set it so that even the console is rotated in portrait mode? I'd like to do this automatically.

I am using Debian Lenny as my server to host multiple databases.
Whenever, I used to add a new database, I used to add an IP address like eth0:test in the /etc/network/interfaces file.
Today when I tried to do the same, I got an error when I tried to start the interface by typing "#ifup eth0:test". I also tried to do in this way "#ifconfig eth0:test up" but both of then yielded the same error saying "/sbin/ifconfig: no such file or directory".
The path is valid and the files are also present there. There are ifup, ifdown, if and ifconfig files in the /sbin directory. I also checked the permissions which is root:root. But still I cannot find the problem.

I am having some troubles with my networking. I have a fresh install of Debian 4.0.4-1. My problem is: I boot up and everything is great.
Code: Select all~# ifconfig
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:1e:68:46:4b:ae
UP BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
[Code] ...
I try to switch the hardware switch on and off with no avail. The only way to fix it is to reboot. But then when I ifconfig down and up I'm stuck in airplane mode again.

i recently started sockets programming. In the process i began to look for relevant network information about my computer and realized that ifconfig wasn't displaying the same information that resides in my /etc/network/interfaces file. On the interfaces file my IP address is 192.168.1.109 for interface eth0 but ifconfig displays 192.168.1.101. I was under the impression that ifconfig got its information from the interfaces file but clearly doesn't. I tried re configuring the device with ifconfig and then disabling and re enabling the device with ifdown and ifup so that the device updated its information but it didn't.

I'm not having the invisible mouse problem, I don't have a mouse at all. Nothing is selected when I attempt to use my touchpad no matter how much I try. I've been trying to fix this problem for three or four days including by installing alternative OSs (Ubuntu Gnome 15.10, Ubuntu 14.04, Ubuntu 15.10), but those OSs have trouble finding the boot drive and is generally a massive nightmare. I figured Debian's lack of mouse would likely be easier to fix and so here I am. I've searched Google relentlessly for days now, the Man pages are useless for my problem, and the only mouse related posts on the forum didn't fit my own issues.
I'm using a Toshiba Satellite C55D-B5102 AMD-64 with Debian 8.2 (Jessie) and none of the operating options like Cinnamon selected at install.

How do you disable startx in Jessie when it boots up? In Wheezy I just had to disable the gdm3 service. I also tried a few settings in grub, but it still starts.

I've had a weird issue recently with Java/Spring. Basically, it would work on all machines but my trusty Debian box. Macs for devs, Ubuntu for production and some devs have it too. This annoyed me, because of course Debian is the greatest and it must work there too! Also, Java is based on the whole write once run anywhere concept, I have never really had a problem with code behaving differently on different Java installs of the same version, even on completely different OSs it seems to behave itself very well. URL....
I moved up to Jessie and the problem goes away. I can only conclude that some library that is called by Java got upgraded, somehow influences the order in which Spring resolves its dependencies. Probably the fact that other devs build on Ubuntu and have got it working there, and the upgrade to Jessie brings my libs more in line with what Ubuntu will be running has done the trick.

The grub boot loader offers in options to boot with sysv instead of systemd. The problem is that it seems to fail and fallback to systemd. Let's have a look on my dmesg :
Code: Select allroot@PCALAIN:~# dmesg | grep sysv
[ 0.000000] Command line: BOOT_IMAGE=/vmlinuz-3.16.0-4-amd64 root=UUID=6740d56f-604c-4920-8c64-868e23976be4 ro rootflags=subvol=__active/root init=/lib/sysvinit/init
[ 0.000000] Kernel command line: BOOT_IMAGE=/vmlinuz-3.16.0-4-amd64 root=UUID=6740d56f-604c-4920-8c64-868e23976be4 ro rootflags=subvol=__active/root init=/lib/sysvinit/init
[code]...
So, how to successfully boot with SYSV ? Of course, the package sysvinit is installed on my system.
First, I have done a snapshot. Nevermind, is the following safe and the correct way to go back to SYSV :
Code: Select allapt-get purge systemd sysvinit
apt-get install sysvinit systemd-shim
Is it necessary to purge and reinstall sysvinit in order to guarranty configuration updates or on the contrary, will I break my system if it has none of systemd nor sysv ?

i.e. my fans start and then suddenly stop !

I keep most of my files on my server, but fiddle with them using NFS from one or another of my laptops - so they all have static IPs assigned by my router. If I want extra speed I plug in an Ethernet cable. My old DI524 wireless G router seems quite happy to have two MAC addresses (Ethernet and wireless) assigned to the same static IP, so long as I don't try using both simultaneously. However three Wireless N routers I've tried won't allow this, nor will dd-wrt.
I really don't want to have to set up every laptop as two separate hosts on my network. 'orrible complications.
Best solution I can think of is to get the Ethernet card to spoof the wireless MAC address with e.g. macchanger, as per this excellent page here: [URL] ....
I don't mind running a script manually to do that on each occasion.
This works perfectly on my old R50 Thinkpad running Debian Squeeze, but on my R60 (running Wheezy) and T400 (running Jessie), macchanger works initially, BUT as soon as I hit 'enable networking' in the Network Manager applet, the ethernet card reverts to its original setting. So of course then my router allocates a random IP and so NFS won't work.
Exactly the same goes for the iproute method 'ip link set dev eth0 address [fakemac]' - ifconfig shows it's worked, but it reverts as soon as NetworkManager goes back up.
I don't know where Network Manager (if it is that) is getting the Ethernet card's original MAC from, it seems to be listed in /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules, so on the T400 (Jessie) I've even tried creating a file in /etc/udev/rules.d/75-mac-spoof.rules along the lines suggested in that archlinux page I mentioned -
ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="net", ATTR{address}=="[original MAC]", RUN+="usr/bin/ip link set dev %k address [fake MAC]"
but it seems to have no effect.
Short of reverting to Debian Squeeze on all my laptops, I don't know what else to do. Or getting into my router and reassigning the IP / MAC address by hand every time (!).
(If there's a better way to swapping easily from wireless to Ethernet when required, I'd like to know.)

I have two desktops running wheezy for years without problems. Recently, I reinstall jessie on one of them and won't boot anymore.The hardware is pretty normal: Asus motherboard, 12GB RAM, Nvidia video card, SSD hard drive, .After the install of jessie finishes, the very first boot failed, which means it hung up forever. The part that is annoying is that it fails at different places whenever I try.
For example, something, it fails at the following:
[ OK ] Started LSB: REP portmapper replacement
[ OK ] Reached target RPC Port Mapper
Starting LSB: NFS Support files common to client and server
Sometimes, it failed at start job is running for lsb set console font.It even failed to the console. When it goes to the console login, I can't put any user name or password. It's all frozen.The problem appears to be video card problem. But it worked fine in wheezy.

So, I did the upgrade to Jessie today and everything went fine and I do like the gray look of the Gnome Classic Desktop. Not much change here.
But it is impossible for me to install the 3.16 kernel.
When I try, I get the following error (sry, it's german, but you should get the point):
Code: Select allE: /var/cache/apt/archives/linux-image-3.16.0-4-amd64_3.16.7-ckt9-3~deb8u1_amd64.deb: Extrahierte Daten für »./lib/modules/3.16.0-4-amd64/kernel/drivers/media/rc/winbond-cir.ko« können nicht nach »/lib/modules/3.16.0-4-amd64/kernel/drivers/media/rc/winbond-cir.ko.dpkg-new« kopiert werden: Es konnte nicht geschrieben werden (Auf dem Gerät ist kein Speicherplatz mehr verfügbar)
It basically says, there is not enough space on /lib to copy the modules for the new kernel. (I have about 100M free there.)
df -h says:
Code: Select all/dev/dm-1 322M 209M 97M 69% /
udev 10M 0 10M 0% /dev
/dev/dm-2 8,3G 5,6G 2,3G 72% /usr
/dev/sda1 228M 28M 188M 13% /boot
/dev/mapper/linux-var 2,8G 577M 2,1G 22% /var
/dev/mapper/linux-tmp 368M 11M 339M 3% /tmp
/dev/mapper/linux-home 58G 55G 628M 99% /home
So, as you can see, there isn't that much space on / at all - don't blame me, blame the Lenny Installer. Personally I can live with the 3.2 kernel but I wonder if there is any possibility to install the never one without a total re-partitioning.

In the past (with Wheezy and before) I often used "decompress" via double click on compressed folders or "compress" via right click on folders (or files) in Nautilus. Since I installed Jessie this option has vanished. I added several packages like "zip", "7z", "unzip" and so forth. Now I can do similar things via command line, but I just don't find any option anywhere to enable compressing and decompressing in Nautilus again. There seem to be no options for configuring such things in Nautilus.
I have the odd feeling my Jessie installation is broken since many little things are missing from the beginning. Should the old behaviour of Nautilus be standard in Jessie also?

I installed a Debian server a few time ago, with the Squeeze version.
Now I want to upgrade it to Jessie, but all related documentation only talk about the procedures to upgrade from Wheezy to Jessie.
What should I do? Upgrade first Squeeze to Wheezy and after that to Jessie, or I can upgrade from Squeeze to Jessie?

I have debian jessie 8.8.1 Oscam and a phoenix card reader running on a tower pc. Everything works on reboot but when i leave it running then when i wake up in the morning the card reader has stopped working and does not show up in lsusb. The only way to get it working again is to reboot then it stops after x amount of time and the same problem.

I have been a windows user for a very very long time, and recently switched to debian. I have so to speak crapped all over my system failing to compile sourcecode properly held broken repos and what not.
So decided to reinstall debian last night, now I have a rather clean fresh installed copy. As I'm a new user to linux, I want to setup a backup system so I can revert to a clean fresh installation when I muck up my system.
Now I have downloaded and installed BackupPC with needed libraries and sitting here trying to configure it on my computer. I have followed this guide: [URL] ....
I have come to this section here:
**********************
Server SSH KEY Creation and Deployment:
3. Deploy Key To Client Machine
Copy id_rsa.pub to client machine
backuppc@server$ scp /var/lib/backuppc/.ssh/id_rsa.pub sudo-user@<client machine>:/home/sudo-user/backuppc.id_ras.pub
backuppc@server$ ssh sudo-user@<client machine>
sudo-user@client$ chmod 600 backuppc.id_ras.pub
sudo-user@client$ sudo mkdir /root/.ssh
sudo-user@client$ sudo chmod 700 /root/.ssh
sudo-user@client$ sudo mv backuppc.id_ras.pub /root/.ssh/authorized_keys
sudo-user@client$ sudo chown root:root /root/.ssh/authorized_keys
********************************************************************
Now I'm not quite sure what to do here as I have no networked computers to deploy to only one machine. Although I want to make a local system backup and upload that to a server I have access to, but would that server be seen as a backuppc server/client?
On this computer here I have generated the id_rsa and id_rsa.pub located in /var/lib/backuppc/.ssh
looking at this part:
Test ssh connection(On server, as Linux user backuppc)
backuppc@server$ ssh root@<client machine>
How should I interpret @<client machine> should that to be ssh root@127.0.0.1 ?

I am running Jessie 8.2, upgraded from Wheezy about a week ago.
KDE Desktop, static IP
NetworkManager.conf shows:
[main]
plugins=ifupdown,keyfile
[ifupdown]
managed=true
dns=none
The dns=none is to keep NetworkManager from overwriting /etc/resolv.conf (which shows):
nameserver aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd
nameserver aaa.eee.fff.ggg
nameserver aaa.hhh.iii.jjj
search mydomain.com
It seems like ifconfig used to show which DNS servers were being addressed, but something has changed, I need to know whether I am referencing what I think I am... I have search this forum, googled, and come up empty... did the metrics go away with 8.2? Was I dreaming at 7.5?

I recently upgraded from wheezy to jessie and everything went as planned with dist-upgrade. However I just noticed that I can't play any video file. I thought about upgrading vlc, as it was already installed but it had dependency problems. So I tried to remove it
Code: Select allsudo apt-get remove --purge vlc
Then If I try to install vlc I receive this message:
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
vlc : Depends: vlc-nox (= 2.2.0~rc2-2) but 2.0.3-5+deb7u2+b1 is to be installed
Depends: libvlccore8 (>= 2.2.0~pre1) but it is not going to be installed

Breaks: vlc-nox (< 2.2.0~pre2-2~) but 2.0.3-5+deb7u2+b1 is to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
Now, I thought about removing vlc-data but I received this message saying that 253 packages will be removed (624Mb worth of applications). Am I uninstalling my entire system with this?

Here's the thing:
- Debian boots normally
- I get the login screen
- Once my credentials entered, I see only the grey foreground of the login screen for a couple of seconds, then a black screen with a prompt for like half a second and then I'm back to the login screen. No error message, nothing.
When booting in recovery mode and use startx, it works fine (it's my setup at the moment). From there, if I start gdm3 (systemctl start gdm.service), I get the black screen with a prompt and I can do nothing, I have to shut down directly by pressing the button.I tried to add Debian-gdm user to the video group (even if I don't use nVidia drivers), to replace gdm by lightdm and even to remove any display manager but the issue is not solved.Here are some outputs:
Code: Select all# dpkg-reconfigure gdm3
Job for gdm.service failed. See 'systemctl status gdm.service' and 'journalctl -xn' for details.
invoke-rc.d: initscript gdm3, action "reload" failed
Code: Select all# journalctl -xn
-- Logs begin at Tue 2015-12-29 19:16:26 CET, end at Tue 2015-12-29 20:20:55 CET
[code]....
Since removing gdm didn't change anything, I assume it doesn't have anything to do with it but still.
