Debian Multimedia :: Can't Run VMware Workstation Player
Nov 8, 2015I keep installing Debian Workstation Player on Debian, but it just doesn't open. I think it might have something to do with the VMware kernel modules not being built or something. How can I start troubleshooting this? Also, why isn't VMware packaged? Has no one tried packaging it yet, or is there a more complex reason?

Dec 11, 2015I have an hp z420 workstation. I bought 8x4Gb of 1600MhZ, ECC unbuffered memory.
Something weird happens now: I tested each individual RAM module by booting my machine with only that module inserted. They are all fine.
However, when I insert all of them, my machine does not boot (and the fan goes crazy).. In particular, the problem happens when I insert any RAM module into a specific slot.
Right now I am using my machine with 7x4Gb of ram, and it is fine. Does it mean I have a hardware problem with one of the sockets?

Feb 7, 2011I am an intermediate linux user. However, I know nothing about solaris. I am trying to install Debian Sparc on a sun blade 2500 workstation. I was told it should work. I am able to go through the debian installation process but when the box reboots it does not boot into Debian. I have now gone through the debian install process several times and now it saids there are too many primary partitions. I tried a rescue install but it saids there are no partitions installed on disk? What am I doing wrong? I am curious if I need to pass a specific argument at the command line to boot into silo? I cannot find any relevant guidance online about this problem and I cannot believe I am the only one to stumble here.

Dec 15, 2014I created a vmware workstation Debian 7 virtual machine from a debian-7.7.0-amd64-CD-1.iso.
I can play flash video streams from within the browser, i.e. YouTube plays fine. However, if I download a YouTube video, then try to play the flv file, it will not play from a media player.
I either get an "error cannot decode" or just a green screen during playback when using Totem or VLC. I've tried installing about every package out there, yet flv files will not play in any media players.
I also tried running the VM with and without 3d support. It won't play flv's either way.
Is this an issue between a vmware vm and Debian 7? Any success story playing flv files from within a Debian vmware virtual machine?

Sep 9, 2015I have been a windows user for a very very long time, and recently switched to debian. I have so to speak crapped all over my system failing to compile sourcecode properly held broken repos and what not.
So decided to reinstall debian last night, now I have a rather clean fresh installed copy. As I'm a new user to linux, I want to setup a backup system so I can revert to a clean fresh installation when I muck up my system.
Now I have downloaded and installed BackupPC with needed libraries and sitting here trying to configure it on my computer. I have followed this guide: [URL] ....
I have come to this section here:
**********************
Server SSH KEY Creation and Deployment:
3. Deploy Key To Client Machine
Copy id_rsa.pub to client machine
backuppc@server$ scp /var/lib/backuppc/.ssh/id_rsa.pub sudo-user@<client machine>:/home/sudo-user/backuppc.id_ras.pub
backuppc@server$ ssh sudo-user@<client machine>
sudo-user@client$ chmod 600 backuppc.id_ras.pub
sudo-user@client$ sudo mkdir /root/.ssh
sudo-user@client$ sudo chmod 700 /root/.ssh
sudo-user@client$ sudo mv backuppc.id_ras.pub /root/.ssh/authorized_keys
sudo-user@client$ sudo chown root:root /root/.ssh/authorized_keys
********************************************************************
Now I'm not quite sure what to do here as I have no networked computers to deploy to only one machine. Although I want to make a local system backup and upload that to a server I have access to, but would that server be seen as a backuppc server/client?
On this computer here I have generated the id_rsa and id_rsa.pub located in /var/lib/backuppc/.ssh
looking at this part:
Test ssh connection(On server, as Linux user backuppc)
backuppc@server$ ssh root@<client machine>
How should I interpret @<client machine> should that to be ssh root@127.0.0.1 ?

Jun 26, 2015I've got a task: make time server, that gets time from gps, shows it on display and send to different systems through different ports like com, ltp, etc.
Solution is qt program, included in hybrid iso image.
I've created my binary-hybrid.iso debian, added my program and installed it on pc sudo dd if=/media/cdrom/binary-hybrid.iso of=/dev/sda then i restarted and everything is ok, but...
I also need:
1) to make my pc works as ntp-server, to do this i must change file ntp.conf in ntp****.deb before i build my iso
how can i do this?
as i realized according to live.debian.net/manual it's possible to do by putting smth to /live-build/config/packages.chroot and by adding some parameters to lb config but i can't find how and what
2) to save my program parameters after reboot. for example, i have such parameter as gmt. it defined as +3. i can change it while program is running to -5 for example and i want to have gmt -5 when i next time turn on my computer
When in programming it is simple - program creates ini file in it's directory and read/write parameters from this ini-file, but how to make possible to do the same thing when it works from iso?

View 2 Replies View RelatedDebian Multimedia :: Cannot Get X To Start (or Even To Configure)
Nov 21, 2010I have been trying to install Squeeze from the 6.0.1a KDE CD-1 plus the Debian repos. I just cannot get X to work. I get similar bad results to those mentioned by other users having similar problems, but none of the suggested fixes works.
Basic hardware information:
Desktop PC, whole 40 GB disk used for install
Graphics card: none Video controller on motherboard: VIA Technologies S3 UniChrome VGA controller (about 8 years old)
Monitor: Samsung Syncmaster 1280 x 1024 (about 8 years old)
Some things I've already tried: in rescue mode, as root, in /etc/X11X -configuremove file to /etc/X11/xorg.conf basically everything mentioned in threads in past two months regarding users who cannot get X to work reinstalling 100x with every choice for the installer I can think of
What happens: when doing the install, contrary to expectation, I am never prompted for any of the hardware information which the documentation at debian.org says I should have on hand (is that a good sign or a bad sign?)
No matter how I try to do the install,I always seem to get a nongraphical installation, so I try this: as root:apt-get install xorg in /etc/X11X -configthen move generated file (which looks like X didn't try to create an actual configuration file) to /etc/X11/xorg.config as non-root user:startx I get black screen (or a tiny tiny konsole at upper left) and system hangs
How can I tell whether this an X misconfiguration? How can I fix it? How can I tell whether I simply need a driver? Where do I look? How can I tell whether my hardware is simply incompatible with Squeeze? What do I need to replace? Do I need to get a new monitor in order to use Squeeze? Do I need to buy a new motherboard with newer video controller? Do I need to buy a graphics card? Which?

Dec 25, 2015I disabled pulse audio in favor of just working with jack, alsa_in & alsa_out and everything works pretty well except for one thing.
When I enable pulseaudio I can control the volume with my multimedia keys, volume up, volume down, mute.
If I kill pulseaudio not only do I not have volume controls but the little widget in the top bar seems to be broken.
I looked in my /etc/acpi/ folder and see these files relating to volume
/etc/acpi/volupbtn.sh
Code: Select all#!/bin/sh
test -f /usr/share/acpi-support/key-constants || exit 0
. /usr/share/acpi-support/key-constants

running xev i get this output for those buttons:

nothing comes up for those keys, the terminal cursor just blinks.
also one more thing, those keys are set to shortcuts in the settings->keyboard->shortcut menu.
I can control my device with the amixer so I would like to just bind amixers functions to the keys but I don't really know how to go about doing that.
How can I bind amixers commands with those keys?
