Debian :: Strange Link Gets Me To Different Sites?
Apr 19, 2010
Trying again here.. no-one on reddit seems to respond..It initially happened here (it was deleted, you can try the lower links.) Sometimes one, sometimes both of these links gets me to 'attack sites', it starts with both, then to one, and then neither does it. I am on Debian Lenny, Both Iceweasel 3.0.6-3(firefox), epiphany2.22.3-9, elinks0.11.4-3 and firefox 3.6.3 sometimes do this for me. It doesn't seem to happen if you enter it into the adress bar, but it does when you follow it by clicking.[URL]..Someone else reported it too, from XP w/ Firefox. The adress bar tells me it is subreddits.org the but the screen doesn't. (Worry my computer is compromised..)
Links it send me too, something on 89.248.174.24, orcug.com, thindx46td.xorg.pl and a whole range of varying other sites. http://i.imgur.com/d7ZGv.png So can you reproduce/any idea what this could be? I do worry about having some malware on firefox and such, also besides this, but as i said, it happens with other browsers. I have add-on flashblock, noscript, redditreveal, socialite, trackmenot, had tree style tab until i found it wasn't usefull enough. I also noticed that control+k gets me to bol.com (wtf is up with that??), and there was the random site you get to when you misclick.(Which i was able to disable.) I am gradually getting more and more pissed off and suspicious about firefox. (as on my computer.)
Firefox also seems start reading/writing from disk suddenly. (I use iotop when i think it shouldn't be writing sometimes.) Perhaps i should try set something up to record what writes to disk.

I just installed Ubuntu 10.10 yesterday, this is my first experience of Linux so I am a noob and have no idea how to go about troubleshooting this myself. I have been googling and searching forums for ages and have read a lot of threads of people having problems getting connected but have still to find anyone with the same issue I am having.
I managed to connect without any problem and I am not being periodically disconnected (which seems to be a frequent problem) but when I enter an address in firefox or click a link there is a 20-40 second delay before it will take me to the page, but once I am on the page if I click another link it will take me there straight away (as long as I am in the same tab, if I switch to a different window I have the 30 second delay again). Same with downloading files, when I click a download link it takes about half a minute to register that I have clicked, but once it establishes the connection my speeds are the same as they always are. speedtest.net is showing 8mbps, and the last file I downloaded came through at 900kbps once the connection established. It is very irritating since other than that I am loving Ubuntu and the more I read about Linux the more I want to drop my windows 7 altogether (running dual boot just now).

In the past week or so I've noticed some weird network behaviour. I find accessing some sites such as Amazon, Paypal, and Bigstockphoto really slow. Sometimes the page will not load at all. Other sites are fine. The problem sites are not a problem for others on my LAN at home. When I try to open the problem sites, I can see in Firestarter blocked connections coming from 2.1(8/9).xxx.xxx on various ports such as 36007. This only happens for the problem sites. I attached a typical output from firestarter.
This happens with Firfeox or Chrome. Using Ubuntu 10.10

i do have a strange problem get running php5 on lenny 64 inside apache2. i had installed it as all instructions on the web does: # apt-get install php5 libapache2-mod-php5 php5-cli php5-common php5-cgi
apt has enabled php automatically, so

<ifmodule mod_php5.c>
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .phtml .php3
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps

Anyone know what the 'ls' command means when it outputs the file name in red on black, with the permissions, owner, etc. all missing? The 'man' page was of no help. In the example below, from a DVD ROM, the third file was OK and I could read it. The first two could not be read, even as root.
?--------- ? ? ? ? /media/dvdrom/DVD_RTAV/VR_MANGR.BUP
?--------- ? ?? /media/dvdrom/DVD_RTAV/VR_MOVIE.VRO
-rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 132624 2007-09-20 02:18 VR_MANGR.IFO

I am reciving a strange backtrace furing the boot process of an IBM thinkpad 600 with debian lenny. The errors appear to be in the 'cs' module, but I'm not sure. Also the "Waiting for /dev to be fully populated..." script in which the backtrace occours also hangs and hasto be Control-C'd, or you have to wait for it to time out. Attached is my syslog

First impressions I really like Debian, been running a server with it for a while and just last week switched to it on my main workstation.
I have only had one problem with video. I have a Geforce 210 with 1gb (1024x768 resolution) of ram and the proprietary Nvidia drivers installed from a repo. Thing is, in all video whether flash in my browser or movies in vlc, mpv, and mplayer, I have these weird overlays that scan over the video, especially in scenes where the camera zooms in, long distance shots seem unaffected.
Also, almost every video I start whether flash or movie file, I get a flash of a green bar at the bottom of the screen very quickly and barley noticeable.
Now I know thats a rough description so I attached two screen shots (link at bottom of post), the affected area is circled in red on one, also I have attached a png of a similar image that may be more enlightening.
Notice the quality of the second screen shot, especially around Will Ferrell's head, and the greenish yellow line leading down his shoulder and arm. The general quality seems terrible. The film is in 720p and looks great in Mac.
I had the proprietary drivers installed in Slackware 14.1 and Mac OS 10.10.5(Nvidia Web Drivers) on this system, with this card and did not have this problem.
I'm in gnome latest version.
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GT218 [GeForce 210] (rev a2)
Subsystem: Device 196e:082e
Kernel driver in use: nvidia
01:00.1 Audio device: NVIDIA Corporation High Definition Audio Controller (rev a1)
Subsystem: Device 196e:082e
Kernel driver in use: snd_hda_intel

Switched Nouveau same result....

After a reboot the mouse pointer suddenly started to act very strange...For example horizontal movements move the pointer verically and moving it to the left also scolls down... left click and right click still works, but not the scroll wheel.I have not done any changes related to X (X11R7).The mouse is a wireless usb logitech mouse, with this "nano reciever"-thing. It has worked without any configuration before.I have not tested any other mouse as this is my only one. I will try to get another mouse for testing

URl...how wide are the spaces between these entries. A quick research shows that this affects only certain apps such as gnome-terminal or Anjuta, but doesn't affect for example Synaptic - my first thought was that it's related to these using GTK3, but now I can see it's not that. This is not theme-related as it appears no matter what theme I choose. No results by googling.

I have just installed squeeze 6.0.2 amd64 and noticed when I use k3b to burn/verify a disc, when it has finished burning the media it plays a sound, and rather sound is played which sounds very crackly/muffled.I do not remember this on ubuntu, and I cannot say for sure but I dont recall this happening on squeeze 6.0.1.
Sound plays perfectly in all other applications, no problems whatsoever.This is not a big deal, I just dont remember this happening. I know this isnt the most detailed posting but does anyone have any idea what this could be? I even tried to reinstall k3b through synaptics and the problem still persists.

I have sucessfully installed Debian 8 stable onto a powermac G5 with and Nvidia FX5200 graphics card, and got the graphics up and running using the nouveau.modeset=0 kernel parameter. However, now the screen is showing completely messed up graphics. The kernel parameters that I have set are: nouveau.modeset=0 and video=TV-1:d.
I've now tried other Desktop environments and they too are messed up. Even window maker is messed up.

I like the "Ubuntu" sudo philosophy and wanted to setup this sudo the same way on my Debian system. I was happy when I found that I just have to do the following:
-create a group 'admin'
-adduser christian admin
-visudo
-add the line: %admin ALL=(ALL) ALL
Then I tried sudo rm -rf / to check if sudo works. All worked fine. No, seriously, I can move around files that belong to the root and such, so sudo somehow works. But when creating new files with sudo, like e.g.
tar xzf myZippedTarball
these files belong to user 41034 and to the group users instead of root root:
drwxr-xr-x 7 41034 users 4096 2009-11-01 01:07 libsvm-2.9
Certainly, this is not the way I want to have. The user 41034 doesn't even show up in /etc/passwd...

I use Debian Lenny on desktop. On bootup I get this strange message
Code:
Question one: what is hub 2-0:1.0? A utility? A library? A module?
Queston two: what does "enumerate" mean in this context?
Question three: I can't figure out what "port" is meant: a networking port something on the motherboard one of several I/O port/connector/sockets on the back of the computer? (Hope you know what I mean--- you stick USB connectors into them to connect your computer to a USB device, such as a USB mouse.) the one and only networking port/connector/socket on the back of the computer.
Possibly relevant: I sometimes but not always have a USB cable connecting my printer to one of the USB ports/connectors on the back of the computer at boot time. But the message always refers to "port 1", never 2,3,4. due to lack of options for getting on the Net, I use an Actiontek router which demands to be given 192.168.0.1 which would otherwise be taken by my computer, which instead gets 192.168.0.2. (Grasping at straws...)

I'm running squeeze/testing. Two or three days ago I became unable to get my mail from pop.gmx.net. A bit of investigation and I found that the error message I was getting was: "could not resolve pop.gmx.net: Name or service not known". Now the funny thing is that I can ping, traceroute, or nslookup the site successfully. Telnet, rlogin and ssh give the same: "could not resolve pop.gmx.net: Name or service not known" error message.
I have tried using the IP address instead of the pop.gmx.net and everything works fine. There is no issue with connecting to pop.gmail.com on the same port. Obviously there is some cache somewhere with a messed up pop.gmx.net. Any idea as to how I can track this down?

I have a linux server with debian system. I want to put in my debian server a site. I installed apache php mysql and phpmyadmim. I really thought that was more difficult for me to put my site database. But now i can load on server my database with phpmyadmin after a very simply installation. I could not believe. I'm studying how make ftp work (apt-get site-ftp?) and waiting from my host directadmin installed. But i try to manage linux console and was very exciting for a newbiest like me!
Now I can write text on my site server with echo etc,etc, I have a database, but I have not site files. While I was studying tutorial to make apache work, I frequently read the directory /var/www and my debian console confirm that is an existing directory. How can use this directory?
Any listing debian linux server commands to:
copy, delete, paste from my pc desktop a file TO folder /var/www ?
It is possible without ftp? Another question. Which bad errors can make a newbie like me configuring apache with linux? I ask this because I read all where that I could not manage a server system if I'm not a sysadmin, but I have only to put in a site... what the real risk?

I dual boot XP and FC14 and have 2 routers. I can connect and ping one of these routers when I'm in FC and I have an IP address I just can't load any websites. When I connect to the other router (my main router) it works fine. When I boot into XP and connect to the problem router I can load pages fine. It's only when I'm on FC14 and connect to the problem router that I can't load pages even though I have an IP and can ping around.

I've been searching this forum and the rest of the web for days now for a good software for a CLI Debian installation that will take links to file sharing sites such as Rapidshare, Megaupload, Uploading, DepositFiles etc and download them when possible (wait for timer to run out and so on).The only thing i've found so far is Slimrat but i dont seem to get it working with WWW::Mechanize even after trying to update it through CPAN

What I am trying to do is edit the link target to force ip=xxxx.xxx.xxx string at end. I have a software program which access 4 different servers running the software but with different configs. In xp I can copy links and modify as above to correctly force the program to the various servers.
I have read the various how tos on hard vs sym links which I get. Playing around with hardlinks and sysmlinks (the examples I find) does not seem to be what I need. Feel like this is pretty basic stuff but I am a bit stumped.

In the ordering of files I keep I need links to directories. Sometimes I even need to move directories to new locations. I have tried using symlinks, but they become dead when I move the directory they point to. I have tried hard links, but I haven't found any Linux file system that would support hard linked directories. How can I achieve that a complex structure of directories (currently with symlinks for directories and hard links for files) keep symlinks live when directories are moved?
- is there any utility that updates symlinks when a directory is moved?
- is there any Linux filesystem that supports hard linked directories?
- is there any good Linux interface to the new NTFS (the only file system I know to support automatically updating directory links, called directory junctions)?

I have a problem where I'm using Ubuntu linux to mount a Windows Vista machine's USB drive and access it on the web using Apache. I did have the USB drive plugged into the Linux machine directly and that was working via the web. FollowSymLinks is on in httpd.conf
[Code]....
The mount works and I can see the files (see above) from my regular linux user account. If I make a test file in /mnt and soft link to that, I can see it on the web. So it's just the mount to the vista machine that seems to be a problem. It's supposed to be a simple read-only mount and the apache login should (I think) be able to see the same generic root access permissions.
log from apache: [Mon Apr 26 20:39:42 2010] [error] [client 99.99.99.99] Symbolic link not allowed or link target not accessible: /home/user1/pub_html/Music, referer: https://xx.xx.xx/~user1/music.html
The credentials have a login and password that matches a special read-only account on Vista. I can see the files on the system from Linux, but not via the web. As mentioned above, a different link to the same /mnt area works fine via the web. I've tried several different mount options with no success.
