Debian :: Can't Run GNOME Or KDE On Squeeze
May 30, 2010When I try to run GNOME, X gives me "Failed to start the X-server" etc and something about "not detecting screens." and if I try to run KDE it just hangs with the _ blinking waiting for the next command. I only tried out KDE to see if it was a GNOME problem. I uncommented the stuff in /etc/X11/xorg.conf (because I had them previously commented out) but that doesn't help. I'm stuck with a GUI-less computer now . What can I do about this? If more information is needed, do not hesitate to ask.

Debian Multimedia :: Upgraded To Squeeze And Now Gnome Won't Work
May 24, 2010Previously (on Lenny) I would boot my computer and it would happily boot through to the Gnome login page (the pretty graphical one). Now (on Squeeze) I get the plain old text login prompt. So I login normally and try running "startx". It comes up with a black screen and a mouse pointer. Nothing else. Ctrl+shift commands seem to work so I am able to get to another terminal. When I switch back to the first terminal there are just come Gnome startup messages.
I really need to have this working in order to do some "work". give me a sure fire way of either fixing this, even if it means instructions on re-installing Gnome? Normally I could copy log files from my Linux machine to my email computer but with no desktop I find this too difficult and really don't have the time to spend working out how to do it. (I have "work" to do as well). So, just briefly I will summarise the Xorg.0.log file:

View 1 Replies View RelatedDebian :: Building An All-around Homeserver?
Nov 26, 2010I have been meaning to do this for awhile. I have a relatively decent machine currently running FreeNAS, a BSD based NAS system. It works great as a NAS box, but now I want it to do more. I want it to act as a file server/NAS, also as a router for my home network, so obviously I will add a second ethernet port as well as wireless "N" capability. As a router, I want to have fine control over my home computers. And, I have a multiple camera security setup, using Motion, that I want to run on this machine 24/7. I know Motion doesn't take a huge amount of horsepower, since I am currently running it on an inexpensive laptop running Squeeze.
What I would like advice on is how some other people on this forum would accomplish this. FreeNAS works great for what it was designed for, as well as IPCop, but neither will do all that I want, so I plan to run Debian on it, most likely Squeeze, as it will soon be Stable.

Mar 13, 2011I am currently working on making a audio interface work with a otherwise working debian desktop (its actually AVLinux, but its Debian for all intents and purposes). The problem is, the current version of ffado-svn installed (1949, from the experimental repository) has a bug with the firmware on the interface (an Echo Audiofire8) preventing me from using high sample rates, so I need to install a more recent version of ffado-svn.I am wondering if there is anyway I can build a current version of ffado-svn into the appropriate debian packages. While I am not familiar with debian, I am familiaux (I use Arch regularly). I have tried messing around with downloading the svn source and downloading the source files from however, my lack of knowledge of the building process in debian has rendered me unable to have success so far.
View 3 Replies View RelatedDebian :: Building And Installing WLAN Driver
Sep 4, 2011I'm fairly new to Linux. I am trying to build and install the drivers for the ASUS USB-N10 wlan usb dongle, using the newest drivers from the Realtek website. I've never used make before on Linux and am running into what are probably some pretty basic problems, but I'm not sure where to look for the answers. I used aptitude to install the "make" and "build-essential" packages. I unpacked the drivers using Archive Manager. I changed to the driver directory and ran "make". It stopped with "No such file or directory." I became superuser and ran make, in case it had permission problems when creating the directory.
Here are the results.

I haven't modified the makefile in any way -- it is the same as what I downloaded. I've read posts from other users who have compiled and installed the drivers on Ubuntu with no problem.

Debian Programming :: Building Kernel Module
Dec 8, 2013I'm trying to build the kernel module for dvbhdhomerun. The problem is the linux kernel headers provided by Debian do not have the dvb header files. Trying to set up my own kernel source tree to use is not working out so well.
I'm following the instructions in the Debian section here: [URL] ....
My first try compiled, but the modules ender up under /lib/modules/3.2.51/extra instead of /lib/modules/3.2.0-4-amd64/extra. Why?
I tried to start over, but noticed this while running apt-get source linux-image-3.2.0-4-amd64:
Code: Select allReading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree   Â
Reading state information... Done
Picking 'linux' as source package instead of 'linux-image-3.2.0-4-amd64'
NOTICE: 'linux' packaging is maintained in the 'Svn' version control system at:
svn://svn.debian.org/svn/kernel/dists/trunk/linux/
[Code] ....
The failure to verify the signature has me concerned, but beyond that, what do I do about the different version number when compiling and installing the kernel modules?
Debian Configuration :: Building A Loadable Kernel Module?
Jul 30, 2010I upgraded my kernel in my Debian Lenny to version 2.6.32-bpo.4-amd64 to fix a problem with a software and ALSA-related issues. The thing is that now, when I boot, eth1 is not enabled and I have to "load" (I guess) the driver each time. To do this, I go to the folder where all the files for the drivers are and I run:
modprobe lib80211
and then
insmod wl.ko
That I got from the readme file. That gets the wireless working perfectly again, but when I reboot the wireless is dead again and I have to run the commands above again. I imagine that what I should do is to build the driver again, for my new kernel. However, according to the readme file, before I need to install linux-headers-generic and build-essential. With build-essential, it says it's already the newest version, and with the linux-headers, I don't know which one should I install for my kernel! I thought it would be the linux-headers-2.6.32-bpo.4-xen-amd64, but when I tried that, this is what happened:
debian:/home/hernan/Programas/hybrid_wl# apt-get install linux-headers-2.6.32-bpo.4-xen-amd64
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree

So the warning says something about the MODULE_LICENSE being missing... how to build the driver again to make it load each time I boot?
