View 2 RepliesI need to get imagemagick on a Debian Lenny up from the lowly 6.3.9 version up to 6.4.9, I have looked it up, but can't get brief details on this ... if I just apt-get install, well I get the older version. Do I have to come up with my own deb package?

I am using Debian 5.0.4 + LXDE, and I just install pidgin with apt, but somehow, the repository seems only have version 2.4.3, but without the updated one.
Anybody know why?
I'm trying to define the partition table type (I want to set it to msdos) for an automatic installation using preseeding file. (Why? I want to setup a software RAID 1 with two 2TB disks, by default the installer uses gpt partition tabless on those disks, where it's tricky to install grub(2), as there is no mbr, and the root partition is on a md device) During manual installtion it is possible to set the partition table type (by setting debconf priority to low).
[Code]...
Does anyone know what I have to put in my config file so that a msdos partition table will be created Also any other solution is welcome. I just want to have my root partition on a raid 1 and have grub installed, so that it boots up (No other OS is installed on the boxes. Debian squeeze is used)
On my debian web server I curently have ImageMagick 6.3.7 08/07/09 Q16 since this is an old version of imagemagick i wanted to upgrade my system that still runs etch, and afterwards upgrade imagemagick. I can not see what version the current lenny imagemagick package has, but I assume it is newer then 6.3.7, no?
When i ugraded I found out that my apt-sources used stable rather than etch. So I already had a mix of lenny and etch I suppose. I then had > cat /etc/debian_version 4.0 Before I upgraded I changed my apt sources from stable to etch, updated the package-tools and did a dist-upgrade (for details, I followed these instructions). After restarting I have still 4.0 as debian version. Also uname -r is 2.6.17. How can I do a correct update?.
Also my services were not started (ftp,ssh, apache2), so I asked my hoster to start the ssh service. This morning everything was up again, but it seems like nobody there have had a look at this. How do I absolutely ensure that my ssh service is start at boot. It is a remote webserver, so I need at least this service to be running.
I have installed Debian Lenny and the Driver for an NvidiaCard GTX280. As this card is not supported by the debian-repositories, i have installed the driver from the nvida-Site. It works ok, but there's one thing: When i have compiz fusion activated, the caracters in the shell are sometimes hidden (pls see attachment).
View 4 Replies View RelatedI recently switched from Ubuntu server to Debian server, and I carried over many of the same configurations. This is pretty much a fresh install.
I cannot get the default gateway to stick by using the /etc/network/interfaces. I can ping my default gateway but nothing beyond it either by name or IP. code...
I would like the default gateway to stick between reboots. Could someone point me in the right direction?
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 was trying to use gnome and kde but i don't like them. I tried xfce and it seem to fit my needs but.My computer is used to be powered on for a weeks. While time passes, a process xfdesktop begin to use more and more memory and to free RAM i need to log out and log in again.
I tried squeeze yesterday on my virtual machine and it has 4.6 and seem not to have that bug, RAM usage is static(yes it still works when i write this and have memory usage 34492k, which is not changing for an hours of usage already), also 4.6 is MUCH better than 4.4.
i already tried adding squeeze to "sources.list" but i can see too many dependencies which should be upgraded if i install 4.6, i'm beginning to afraid it can crash entire GUI(or entire system, i can see there is libc6 required to be updated).

I have installed Gantt Project (project management application) under 10.04. The system identifies the .gan files produced by the program as xml files. How do I tell the system to open .gan files with the GanttProject application?
I tried right click on the file to open and using "Open with other application" but the GanttProject application does not appear to be in the list of available programs.
I want my bash file to read from "input.dat" the two values emin emax. My input file looks like that:
#cat input.dat
!Energies
emin 10.00 !minimum energy
emax 30.00 !maximum energy
Now this seems to be not so hard with the command awk
#!/bin/bash
awk '{FS=" "}/emin/{print $2}' input.dat
awk '{FS=" "}/emax/{print $2}' input.dat
[code]....
So far so good. Now, I want to define two variables (e.g. e1,e2) in the bash file, so that their values would correspond to 00.00 and 30.00, as read from the input file. This one I have not found yet, thus asking for your advice. At the end, writing echo $e1 $e2, I should get 10.00 30.00 This is even harder to me: I want to replace the values emin,emax in a new file "modify.dat" which looks like that:
...
c---- energy interval
emin = 1.00
emax = 2.00
...
with the values e1 and e2 I have in my bash file. In other words, I want to call "modify.dat", find these two lines and replace the numeric values with the e1 and e2. At the end, my file should be like:
...
c---- energy interval
emin = 10.00
emax = 30.00
...
Alsamixer is better now since one can press F6 to select the card and tune it. but well, ok, when one has several cards, if you have a mic, alsamixer is not bright and select it as first card, so one resutls into no sounds.OK, alsamixer is nice, but man, how to select a specific card and select it as defautl. Then at reboot, I wish to have sound. Is that possible with Linux or shall we wait a stable version of Debian whcih works, simply ?

I have a weird issue that I have not seen on any forum. My jaunty on DELL studio laptop seems connected to net, but I can not access any network service (ssh, firefox etc.). But when I connect a cable the cable lights blink as it should be and in wireless connection my wifi light blinks.
It was working 2 days ago without problem, and I have not done big changes recently.I removed and reinstalled network-manager and network-manager-gnome. Nothing changed. I see a message in each restart as follows (when Openafs is starting). I can reproduce it with "/etc/init.d/openafs-client restart"

I have 3 Interfaces for a different LAN's and when I start one interface the another interfaces goes down.How can it's possible?I configure my ethernets as:
Code:
/sbin/ifconfig eth0 172.16.3.108 netmask 255.255.0.0 broadcast 172.0.255.255
/sbin/ifconfig eth1 172.16.3.109 netmask 255.255.0.0 broadcast 172.0.255.255
/sbin/ifconfig eth2 172.16.3.1110 netmask 255.255.0.0 broadcast 172.0.255.255
If I try to add a new interface (eth1) to /etc/network/interfaces, I get

I am trying to set the interfaces file to connect to my wireless network. Here is my interfaces file...

I change the interfaces file to activate the DHCP service for my eth0.
How do I make the service active without booting the system. In other word, how do I run the modified interfaces file?

DSL modem is a Speedstream 6520 router. All computers work fine via dhcp. I'm trying to setup a small server (print server, ssh & ftp servers). I understand enough of the software part of things to get it going, my problem is setting a static IP on the server box. Every time I set the IP in the /etc/network/interfaces file and reboot, I have no network connection. I can talk to the modem through the browser, but nothing beyond that, not even local computers.
/etc/network/interfaces
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.254.202
network 192.168.254.0
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.254.254
ifconfig shows the .202 address, but box can't get to the outside world, and can't ssh into the box from a computer sitting next to it. If I let it dhcp, then I can ssh into it, and have access to the internet. In the modem, I have dmz set for that address. Wan address is static. I can ssh into it if I let it do dhcp, so I know it can work that far. But if I set static ip, I might as well pull the network cable. I've been beating my head on this for over a week, and I'm lost why I can't get it to work. I even changed the dhcp range on the modem, so the .202 is not in that range. There is no dhcp client installed that I can find. I'm using WattOS beta3, which is a light distro based on 9.04. The computer is an old Dell GX150, integrated nic. I have done ifdown and ifup eth0, still no happiness. Doesn't seem like it should be that hard, but I'm stumped. DMZ should let everything pass, so don't need to mess with port forwarding and such. I know it works using dhcp.
For my router I need to change Ubuntu server from DHCP to static IP. So to do this I entered: Code: sudo vi /etc/network/interfaces ...and pushed the wrong buttons and exited the session suddenly by mistake. After learning how to use the vi editor I went back but I got a notice that the the last session didn't close properly and that a "swap" file had been created. Anyway, I entered my static IP info, saved the file, and attempted to restart with:
Code: sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart Restart failed and I got a notice that I should delete the /etc/network/interfaces.swp file so I did. Tried to restart again and, didn't get the .swp file conflict message this time, but failed again - this time I got the following message:
