View 8 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to install Debian 8.2 lxde WITHOUT Libreoffice? I have successfully installed it on an eeepc with a 4 gb ssd
But then removed Libreoffice to have room for files.
It works great! It would be nice to just install Debian lxde without Libreoffice, which I do not use, I prefer gnumeric and vim.
After receiving no response either here or on IRC, I copied 80 package files to a temporary directory and ran dpkg-scanpackages . /dev/null > Packages with the expected result. The curious part is the delay when output redirection is not used: nothing appears until the script completes, when the result is dumped to the screen. It therefore appears that there is an upper limit to the number of packages that the script can handle, somewhere between 80 and 42,474.
Is this an undocumented feature, or just a peculiarity of my system?
I'm new to Debian and wanting to set up a local repository on my work drive. After following instructions online and copying all packages (~43,000) from the DVD set into /work/Debian/8.2/packages/ I ran dpkg-scan-packages as instructed:
Code: Select all# dpkg-scan-packages . /dev/null | gzip -9c > Packages.gz
This produced an empty file. I then ran dpkg-scanpackages with no output redirection expecting to see a flood of text on the screen, but all I got were error messages suggesting that it can see the .deb packages but is not parsing them:
Code: Select allroot@qbx:~# dpkg-scanpackages /work/Debian/8.2/packages
dpkg-deb: error: invalid character ' ' in archive '/work/Debian/8.2/packages/libshhopt1_1.1.7-3_i386.deb' member 'debian-binary' size

This all seems in accord with the man page, and it's so simple I'm wondering what I'm missing.
1.) Which is the the best open source remote desktop server which you recommend for Debian? And client for windows/linux platform.
2.) How to install LXDE + xserver and point 1. question remote server program through SSH?
P.S. I all ready did install of LXDE and xserver, but I don`t know how to test it, because I`m using ssh.
After a fresh install of debian 5.05 over net it boots then at end of text lcd screen shows out of range. if start in single user then startx it goes out oif range. How can i set it to a range monitor can do?

But after the installation-proces finished and I did a reboot, I only got a commandline in which I only was able to log into as root. No LXDE. Nor did the command "startx" start X. to my surprise. On another pc I did an install of F10 with Gnome and later on I've installed LXDE. After a reboot I was able to select LXDE in gdm. But how can I get a clean install of F10 with only LXDE? What am I missing here?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have made a based ARM Debian system by using the debootstrap tool, and installed the LXDE Desktop System by using the follow commands.
apt-get update
apt-get install lxde
However, The LXDE Desktop System can't boot when i reboot. What can i do next ？
I have just upgraded to the latest testing packages with aptitude and now when I log in I get 2 error messages. One is "Your session only lasted less than 10 seconds. If you have not logged out yourself, this could mean that there is some installation problem or that you may be out of diskspace. Try logging in with one of the failsafe sessions to see if you can fix this problem." and then if I click on view details I get "/etc/gdm/Xsession: Beginning session setup..." As long if I don't click OK the system (LXDE) is completely usable and the only thing that doesn't seem to be working properly is wifi - I think I was using network manager which doesn't seem to be loading. The other error message is: "GTK+ icon theme is not properly set This usually means you don't have an XSETTINGS manager running. Desktop environment like GNOME or XFCE automatically execute their XSETTING managers like gnome-settings-daemon or xfce-mcs-manager.
If you don't use these desktop environments, you have two choices:
1. run an XSETTINGS manager, or
2. simply specify an icon theme in ~/.gtkrc-2.0.
For example to use the Tango icon theme add a line: gtk-icon-theme-name="Tango" in your ~/.gtkrc-2.0. (create it if no such file)
NOTICE: The icon theme you choose should be compatible with GNOME, or the file icons cannot be displayed correctly. Due to the differences in icon naming of GNOME and KDE, KDE themes cannot be used. Currently there is no standard for this, but it will be solved by freedesktop.org in the future." clicking OK brings up icons etc. and desktop background. I am using an SSD and when I set up the laptop I think that I made /tmp a folder on a ram disk (and maybe a few other temporary files as well). Could this have anything to do with these error messages? (one also pops up about battery empty when the battery is still @ 100% but that is less irritating)
I'm trying to setup the wireless in the debian lxde livecd but I'm not seeing how it is done.
I've searched a bit and found this page [URL] , which says to use the wicd program, but since I don't have internet there, I can't install the program!
I have a strange problem in my new debian 8.3 LXDE install. Every time I boot my laptop it goes in to sleep mode automatically after a min. It is a default install and I have not configured any power management options. How do I find out the reason for the automatic sleep and how can I rectify it?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI installed jessie amd64 lxde to a thumb drive to use with a laptop. Vanilla install using the amd64 lxde live cd. Upon booting the usb system, I am presented with a black screen with blinking cursor. No grub screen, no ability to type any commands and no ability to switch to another terminal. I tried booting into the live cd and I could get into the intro splash screen. Booting to the live system from there would also hang at a black screen.
However, using the kernel parameter "nomodeset" from the splash screen did allow the live system to boot to the desktop. I booted the live system, mounted the usb system and chrooted into it. I edited /etc/default/grub to include "nomodeset" in the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT and GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX variables and then ran update-grub.
Upon reboot to the usb system the problem still occurred. The video card in question is a amd firepro 5800m which has an lspci line of mobile radeon 5000 series. This card was supported in wheezy and apparently works with the live system.
I am having troubles with my old school monitor though.Upon boot up I can press CTRL+ALT+F1 to see a text only screen, but CTRL+ALT+F7uses my monitor to say "frequency out of range". I googled and found that I can press CTRL+ALT+"+" to change the X.org resolution. If I do this about five times I finally see a screen. However, the resolution must be too high because in order to see other parts of the screen I have to "scroll" with the mouse off the edges of the screen. Furthermore, if I go to System->Preferences->Screen Resolution, Resolution and Refresh rate are blank

View 2 Replies View RelatedQuestion: Installation had me entering my password many times, seemed like for most everything I did during install & setting up the desktops. It was a little frustrating compared to what I was used to with Ubuntu. I know this frequency will reduce once settled in although Linux and "fiddling" go together so some will continue. When using Ubuntu I was able to set that up to bypass some password need, not all. I was hoping there are options for that with Debian but my efforts all day yesterday failed to find any. I am not looking to eliminate password use entirely and I don't expect it to be just like Ubuntu either, however...
My main areas of frequent password use that are new to me with Debian Squeeze are:
1)All partition mounting. Using Ubuntu I edited fstab using a tool called "Storage Device Manager" so that only myself, not "users", had full read-write access to all partitions at boot time. However, none of those fstab codes or any new ones that I tried seemed to work in Squeeze. Besides Squeeze, I have two ntfs and one ext3 partition to access. Example: my music files are on an ntfs partition and I have to enter a password to listen to music.
2)Opening a root nautilus folder. In Ubuntu I made a custom application launcher with "gksu nautilus" and that gives you a no-password one-click access. In Squeeze, I enter a password every time.
3)Reboot & Shutdown. This one surprised me. Every reboot or shutdown requires my password unless I logout first but that adds a step. It may have something to do with a second desktop I installed (kde), I'm not sure. I tried making a script linked to an application launcher that runs "init 0" but that asked for my password too.
I'd like to be able to do 1,2 & 3 above without password entry other than maybe at the main log-in.
About me: This is my first post here, and am trying to be courteous. I checked the DebWiki, Google & this forum for answers. I found a little about ntfs partitions and saved it to a file. My situation is a Debian beginner but using Ubuntu for 7 or 8 months. My technical skills are mid-range. I use Debian on a newer dell laptop with Intel chipset and Intel CPU, triple booting Windows 7, Ubuntu 10.10 and Debian-Sqeeze-di-rc1-amd64. I installed using DVD #1, and made a local repository with DVD 1&2 and added a second kde desktop. Gnome Debian is my favorite now, it runs very well and will probably replace Ubuntu as my primary OS. Everything works that I can tell, except the Software Sources GUI does not load but I go into the source.list file and edit it manually.
I have both cpufrequtils and acpi-whatevercpu, normally processor would be correctly controlled by the ondemand governor and have two steps for frequency, 1.4 and 3.5GHz. Now I've noticed my frequency is always at 3.5GHz, cpufreq-info gives me the hint:
Code: Select allguiu@guiu-desktop:~$ cpufreq-info --cpu 0
cpufrequtils 008: cpufreq-info (C) Dominik Brodowski 2004-2009
Report errors and bugs to cpufreq@vger.kernel.org.
[Code].....
This isn't really a big issue. Normally the processor will sit at +-28°C at low load levels at maximum frequency, with the proper governor it will drop to +-20°C (room temperature) and lower. So I still would like to get proper management of frequencies for more hardware life, and better energy efficiency, not to mention quieter fans. Documentations on cpufrequtils is very broad, and apart from that I don't know where to look for this. Debian wiki page mentions about a file that can be used to configure this but there isn't much documentation.
Ps: I previously had this issue where acpi-cpufreq driver wouldn't load at all, this is due to setting on bios resulting in different frequencies than stock, trying to get default frequencies allowed the driver to work.
I have a problem with CPU frequency at overclocking.Normally the processor is clocked at 2.7 GHz (13.5x200), Debian detects it correctly. When I overclock it (in the BIOS of course) to 3.3 (11x300), BIOS at booting shows everything correctly.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI want to turn off frequency scaling permanently and totally in the lowest-level way possible. Is there a kernel command line that can be used or is recompiling the kernel without the governor stuff the only way?
Solved. Just modprobe -r and blacklist the acpi_cpufreq kernel module.
I'm having a weird problem (2.6.32-2-686-bigmem , sid):
Frequency scaling works on CPU 1 but not on CPU 0.
This is regardless of application, the Gnome applet and cpufreq-selector both fail
Got a new HP Mini 210 the other day and things run pretty good using squeeze considering how new it is. The only serious problem is that the available scaling frequencies are mis-reported by the system. Instead of 800, 1.0, 1.3 and 1.6, only 1.0 and up are shown.
acpi-cpufreq is installed and run properly on boot, indeed the system scales nicely from 1.0 through max as needed / dicatated by the ondemand governor. Powertop tells me it spends 99.8% of its time at the "lowest" frequency of 1.0.
In the hopes that a newer kernel would solve things I downloaded 2.6.34-1 and built it, and though it runs very nicely it doesn't solve the problem of the missing 800Mhz frequency. At this point I'm at a bit of loss as to how to proceed. I've asked the same question on the Debian mailing list, because I want to give this the good old college try before submitting a bug report to the kernel mailing list.
Not sure this is the right place and I feel really stupid for asking this but, I want to change the frequency of the online update checks but, for the life of me, cannot find out how. During install, I can configure it but I now want something different. I thought that there was a topic with yast under software but no. Only "online update" which basically give me manual update. I click on configure but same screen appears.

After I've burned the live cd, I can get to the menu (try ubuntu, install etc), but whenever I try to start ubuntu the frequency goes out of range.
I have tried adding vga=771 to the end of the boot line, this had no effect.

Does LXDE have a repository (source.list) like all the other versions (Gnome, KDE, etc.)?How to add to the LXDE Repository
1: Download Synaptic Package Manager apt-get install synaptic
2: Open Synaptic Package Manager--> Settings--> Repositories
3: Click 'Add'
I have a suspicion that this is easily fixed, however a good google (and this forum) hammering having turned up the fix. So I probably have the wrong search criteria, My Gnome Applet for switching CPU Frequency Scaling has 'disappeared' and is not listed in the the Add to Panel.. list of applets.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI just updated my Wubi install of 9.10 to 10.04 last night. Everything went well until it required me to reboot the computer. I rebooted, loaded Ubuntu from the startup list, and then the screen went blank and I got "H.V. frequency over range" on the monitor.
I can load the GRUB options, but recovery mode using the most recent kernel does not work. I am entirely unexperienced with using the terminal and command prompt options.
Here's what I have attempted so far:
$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg this did not do anything, the command was not recognized
$sudo nano xorg.config I don't even know what to do when I get to this screen
and I am about to try $ sudo displayconfig-gtk
I have an ATI Radeon 9100 IGP card
I recently attempted to install Ubuntu 11.04 alongside Windows Vista, and now during the boot up process only I get Out of Frequency Error and a black screen, so I can't see the boot options come up to log into Vista instead if I should so desire. When I get out of the boot up process and hit Ubuntu everything's fine. This happens with multiple monitors, ranging from archaeologically old CRTs to a new flat screen that's less than a year old, to my five year old CRT I had intended to use.
I've tried updating drivers, but I'm not sure I'm doing it right... Changing my resolution through the Monitors menu under system settings->hardware doesn't help me at all in the boot up process. Googling the problem leads me to suspect it may be tied to monitor refresh rate, but with my current store of knowledge that information is no value to me whatsoever.
I installed debian testing with lxde.Now set the background image.Default background color is black.If i right click on desktop,nothing happens.
What to do?
