Debian :: Package Search Site And Stable, Sid, And Experimental All Have Packages For Wine

Aug 21, 2011

At first I thought it might be a free software thing but I went on the debian package search site and stable, sid, and experimental all have packages for wine. Why is there none for wheezy? Is it a temporary dependency thing or...? I've googled this but there has been no kind of answer anywhere. Right now I'm using the frickelplatz apotsid repository as they package the most recent version of wine but if I could use a standard debian repository I would.

Ubuntu :: Find Some .deb Packages For Some Experimental Compiz Plugins

Sep 5, 2010

I'm trying to find some .deb packages for some experimental Compiz plugins, mainly the Headtracking plugin. I have tried compiling the plugin, but I have had no end of trouble doing so. Come to think of it, I don't think I have ever successfully compiled a piece of software in Linux. So, are there any .deb packages for this plugin?

Debian :: Setting Up A Testing/Unstable/Experimental System?

May 17, 2011

EDIT: This thread has taken a different turn, please go down to viewtopic.php?f=30&t=64242#p370832 Below is I originally wrote, now totally irrelevant.:D I am delighted/bored with my one Debian Squeeze install, so I've decided to free up a partition to play with another configuration of the universal OS.At the moment I am liking the looks of the supposedly not so unstable Sid; what's the ideal download/install path to get Sid up and running? Is it:1) I already have a live Squeeze GNOME DVD lying around; should I install that again and upgrade to Sid?

Networking :: Isolate VPN Traffic From LAN?

Jul 11, 2010

I have a comcast business network adapter that has a 4 port switch. It also handles nat 1 to 1 translation for static IPs (That's just how they do it, there is no other choice).

In port 1, I have a cat6 that brings traffic to and from my linux machines, allows me to vpn, ssh, a mail server, etc. Everything here is fine.

In port 2, I have a netgear router that is setup with a point to point VPN for a client.

Here are the issues:

1. Machines that are connected to the netgear vpn router/switch can access machines on my network - I don't want this.

2. I can't access the machines connected to his lan from my lan - I need this to administer his machines somehow. Even if I have to VPN to the concentrator and do it like that.


Here is the network structure.

Code:
Internet <-> 10.10.10.1 -> switch with 10.10.10.x machines
|
-> internal vpn IP 10.10.10.50
|

[Code]....

The external network for the VPN is 10.10.10.x and the internal is 10.10.20.x. So, a machine with IP 10.10.20.100 can get to 10.10.10.X and I don't want that. I guessing it's doing this because technically, I'm 'from the internet' on 10.10.10.x and the vpn machines are going 'out to the internet'. Is there a way to have this:

vpn -> gateway traffic only?

I have a cisco 1811w at my disposal if I need to use it; however, I'm all thumbs when it comes to cisco IOS and networking in general.

Debian :: Installing I386 Packages Prompts Removal Of Amd64 Packages

Apr 8, 2015

I am working on a project which targets both 32 and 64 bit architectures at the moment. My system is amd64. I added i386 architecture using this guide. However, my problem is

Code: Select allapt-get install package-name:i386

prompts the removal of currently installed packages (amd64 arch.) which is the problem.

Code: Select allReading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
The following extra packages will be installed:
  libportaudio0:i386

[Code] ...

Some of the packages I am talking about are

-libegl1-mesa-dev:i386
-libportaudio-dev:i386

Now, as of now, I want to carry out the compilation using 32 bit libraries, however, I really don't want to install 64bit version of all prerequisites each time I switch the compilation from 32 bit to 64. Is there any way to have both architectures at the same time?

General :: Isolate A Number From A Text File Using Sed?

Mar 27, 2010

I'm trying to isolate a number from a text file using sed. The text file looks like this:

-GARBAGE-GARBAGE-GARBAGE- Number of frames: 183933 frames Codec -GARBAGE-GARBAGE-GARBAGE-

I tried the following:

Code:
sed "s/^.*Number of frames: //g; s/ frames Codec.*$//g" "info.txt" > "frames.txt"
Strangely, it only seems to be stripping off the end, but not the beginning, like so:
-GARBAGE-GARBAGE-GARBAGE- Number of frames: 183933

I'm obviously not using the command correctly, so what am I doing wrong?

General :: Use Awk To Isolate A Specific Directory Level

Jul 15, 2011

I have used Awk in the past to isolate the file name from a given path..that is to say, I may have a list of files contained in list.txt.Can someone please post the Awk command that would do this? (I assume it will be very similar in form to the Awk command I showed above.)The point is, sometimes I may want to isolate the second directory, sometimes I may want to isolate the third directory or tenth or whatever - so I am hoping that if someone posts the Awk command to isolate the second level directory (to produce the output I showed in Fig.3) it should be fairly obvious by looking at the form of this command how to alter it and so isolate any other directory I want.

Security :: Isolate File Access For Program?

Mar 12, 2011

it is possible to change the root directory for a single, particular program. For example, I have an executable, 'miscreant.bin' that has all of it's required libraries in a directory named "libraries", in the same directory as the said executable. I can launch the program and make it use the libraries included with the executable rather than the system with:

Code:

/lib/ld-linux.so.2 --library-path ~/miscreant/libraries ~/miscreant/miscreant.bin
...or...

Code:

env LD_LIBRARY_PATH=~/miscreant/libraries ~/miscreant/miscreant.bin

With either, miscreant can be portable. But, I would also like to change the root directory (like chroot) of miscreant, so that the directory "~/miscreant/sandbox" becomes the root ("/"). So, if miscreant created a file named "/home/bryan/miscreant", it will be redirected to "~/miscreant/sandbox/home/bryan/miscreant". I am running Crunchbang 10 (Statler) on a 32-bit Atom netbook.

Networking :: Isolate Untrusted Computers While Retain Access From Specific PCs

Sep 24, 2010

At school, the shop I work in has machines that run windows xp and cannot be updated to the latest SP (consider these machines "B"). This means that they are quarantined whenever connected to the network. There are also workstations that we would like to be able to connect to "B" for the sole purpose of dropping a file into a directory. These machines we will call "A" and are considered trusted.

I have No control of the school's network. I have a spare PC with two NICs as well as a 5 port switch. My thought was to use the spare PC as a gateway/router/VPN and setup an isolated "network b" consisting of all the untrusted systems. Disallow all traffic other than the VPN connection. Connect via vpn from the 4ish trusted workstations "A" to Network B. I could use mac filtering (I think) to accomplish this and disallow any computer not specifically authorized, thereby isolating the untrusted computers completely.

Fedora Hardware :: Experimental DRI Support For Mesa

Jan 3, 2010

I'm using an ATI Mobility Radeon 3450, an R6xx card, with the radeon driver. I've been wanting 3D acceleration and was considering trying the experimental DRI support with Mesa 3D. So my questions are:

1. How experimental is experimental at this point? Is the specific mesa-dri-drivers-experimental package more-or-less static?

2. Would I be better off with Mesa 7.6 from the repository or 7.7? What would be the best approach before installing it?

Fedora Hardware :: ATI Mesa DRI Drivers Experimental - X Not Starting

In the xorg.conf "vesa" ist set. When I put "mesa" there and reboot, x dont starts. Whats wrong? Btw I am using igp hd 4200 and fc12-64bit

Ubuntu :: Grub2 Experimental With Gfxmenu / Reboots Laptop

Jan 22, 2010

I have been using grub2 experimental from fzielcke's ppa. I tried to use the gfxmenu by modifying grub.cfg downloaded from grub.gibibit.com and overlaying the overlay file from that website. When I rebooted by laptop, it shows the graphical menu for about 1 to 2 secs before rebooting my laptop. Has anyone else experienced the same problem (and maybe found the solution)?Alternatively I also tried to download the source from grub's experimental branch. Everything went smoothly until I issued the make command... It is missing some files e.g. loader.S (an include file for ~/experimental/kern/i386/pc/startup.S). Can anyone help me obtain the complete source files for the experimental branch?

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Xorg-edgers - When Does Experimental Become Mainstream

Jul 6, 2011

I started using Ubuntu Karmic on my old laptop w/ATI GPU and quickly realized the benefits of the xorg-edgers PPA. I understand that these packages are considered bleeding-edge, and do sometimes cause breakage. For me though , the pluses have vastly outweighed the minuses, which were negligible. I can't use any proprietary drivers w/my old card, and 3d is basically non-functional with the standard open ATI drivers. With xorg-edgers, I can use Compiz, play OpenArena and Quake Live.

Now after over a year and a half, 15 kernels and nearly 4 releases later, I'm really not sure how much progress has been made with the mainstream open ATI drivers, though I have been enjoying 3d with xorg-edgers. I really don't know how much of the bleeding-edge performance is due to the drivers, the kernel, xserver, or other libraries. I'm just looking forward to the day when my GPU is fully functional OOTB. how packages go from experimental to mainstream? Speculate on when open ATI development will be complete, and will that be all that is required for properly accelerated graphics?

General :: Experimental Linux Install Using An Old Celeron Powered PC?

Mar 20, 2010

Yes, I was all excited when I plugged in an old dusty PC and found it still alive with a 32 gig hard drive & 260 Megs of RAM with an open slot for more memory, fit for my first Linux system. Then I navigated to device manager and found it was powered by a celeron, which was kind of a bummer.Anyway, can I get by with this setup? I'd like to use the slackware distribution, and my main purpose is to learn to administer a LAN, starting w/ 2 local clients, & a server that also runs Apache.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Experimental Nvidia Working In Recovery Mode But Not After Normal Boot

Jun 28, 2011

I tried to make Compiz work using the experimental 3D support of the free Nvidia driver, because I am suffering from a bug in the proprietary driver (click here for launchpad entry). The free driver I mean is the one that shows up as "Experimental 3D support for NVIDIA cards" in the "Additional Drivers" manager (note: for some reason, this option will only present itself when no proprietary driver is currently active).

Now the strange thing is: the driver does not provide 3d support, and behaves generally awful (lots of glitches and so on) when I boot my system normally. But when instead I boot from the grub menu into recovery mode, then select "failsafe graphics", and then select "restart X", the whole thing works perfectly! So now I am running the experimental 3d driver, I have compositing working, 3d animations on docky. Somehow, the failsafe boot sequence does something right that my normal boot sequence does not. When I reboot in normal mode, everything is screwed up again.

I have no idea what statistics about my system I should include here, because I really have no idea what could possibly be wrong. I am running 32bits Natty in Classic mode, on an Ahtlon Dual Core 4850e machine, with a GeForce 6150 LE graphics card. These are the normal and recovery entries in my grub.cfg:

Code:

menuentry 'Ubuntu, with Linux 2.6.38-8-generic-pae' --class ubuntu --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os {
recordfail
set gfxpayload=$linux_gfx_mode
insmod part_msdos

Debian Installation :: Install All 20,000 Packages Of Debian 5.0.4 9n-newbie?

May 17, 2010

After installing debian 5.0.4 basic from first dvd, I extracted all other dvd images to hard disk and pointed /etc/apt/sources.list point to all these directories.
after refreshing using synaptic package manager, I got list of all 20,000+ packages, and did a
"apt-get -y install ......(all 20,000 names)". It failed due to some conflicts. So I used "--force-yes -f " option as well.

It went on for nearly two days to install everything. (in between due to power failure, something was done half way and was able to login to KDE boot option and see lots of software installed.)
After complete install - it shows a startup screen of Debian EDu - but fails to boot up.

Is there a way to install all softwares + all XWindow systems simultaneously?

Debian :: Download Debian Packages

Jul 17, 2010

I plan to install Debian on a machine that will have no access to the internet but I would like to install some packages in it (such as build-essential). I was thinking of downloading them here and transfer and install them on the other machine at a later time but because of dependencies I don't know what packages I'll need besides of the ones I really want, for example: After the fresh install from the cd, I would like to install build-essential which requires g++, make etc... but is there a way to download all that instead of doing it manually? Since I don't really know when to stop downloading dependencies. I tried aptitude download but it only gives me the meta-package. I also thought of chroot to a fresh system, install the packages and retrieve them from the local folder where they get downloaded but I was looking for something less complicated.
