View 3 Replies After a bit of searching, I haven't found a discussion on how to mount an external device using hardware attributes, though I am almost certain I have seen discussions on this in the past. The objective is to consistently mount an external USB drive at the same mount point regardless of the order in which a user attaches other external USB drives. For instance, if I run lshw, I can find harware properties of the device:
Code:
*-usb:1
description: Mass storage device
...
physical id: 6
[code]...
I'd like to identify this device by the serial number and mount to a pre-defined mount point (e.g. /mnt/extUSB). I can write a script involving lshw,dmesg, and mount but I vaguely recall a more clean/ preferred method.
I tried to install lshw to be able to list me hardware. lshw is not in synaptic. I found this page [URL] .... and from there went to [URL] .... where I read:
You should be able to use any of the listed mirrors by adding a line to your /etc/apt/sources.list like this:
deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian wheezy main
Replacing ftp.de.debian.org/debian with the mirror in question.
I wonder how I can filter the syslog? i.e. there is a message that I don't want to see logged in there etc?
View 3 Replies View RelatedThis is a fresh install of Ubuntu 9.10 64bit on a Compaq 6715b laptop.Everything is working OK except the fingerprint reader. So to look for the device I did this:
Code:
sudo lshw
but was a bit alarmed when I saw this:
*-volume:0
description: EXT4 volume
vendor: Linux
physical id: 1
bus info: scsi@0:0.0.0,1
[code]...
What is the cause of the strange characters?
I cannot install the text filter that is usually below the address/search bar.

It does not have a problem with my windows cd, which has a crack and the start of all my problems, But not the Debian CD-1 disk. what now? The computer is an IBM thinkpad a22p. Everything works as far as I can tell. But I was going to reinstall Windows and failed in that because of a small crack on the edge of the disk that stopped the install and any hope of accessing the file on the laptop. Microsoft does not support windows xp any longer, you must buy windows 7, but the ibm will not run it due to processor speed and ram limitations. But it will run linux and I'm willing to try it just to get out of microsoft control.
Idon't know what else to do. This is the link to where I downloaded the software ( [URL] ). The others five that i downloaded were on the same page that I got this one. Are there bad files here? Is there a missing file in the disc?

Whenever i use to type in lshw -c network it used to show details about stuff, but now when i do it it shows nothing.
Also i did whatever was in this thread
how to install windows wireless drivers
i restarted my pc and now i cant even see the wireless network! it doesnt even say enable wireless networking in the network manager!
I just bought a laptop with a T4400. Looking through lshw output turned up the following for the L2 cache:
Code:
*-cache:1
description: L2 cache
physical id: 6
slot: L2 Cache
size: 1MiB
capacity: 4MiB
capabilities: burst internal write-back unified
I'm curious as to why the size (1Mib) and capacity (4MiB) are different. Surely it can't be possible to stick something on the CPU to increase the L2 cache size, right?? So what does this mean?
I'm running 64-bit Linux Mint (derivative of Ubuntu). The kernel config says CONFIG_X86_L1_CACHE_BYTES=64 but I found nothing about the L2 cache.
Can I somehow unlock more cache to get a 4MiB L2 cache for free?
so i cannot install anything because update-info-dir file is missing from /var/lib/dpkg/info/ .. I've searched for the last day and a half for a way to fix this, but nothing. can't even update dpkg because of this. so how do I bypass or fix this so I can install stuff (this is a fresh install of ubuntu 10.04 lts Lucid Lynx).

      }
I even saved the amazon.de email from thunderbird as .eml and used it as a testmail to check the second filter
Code: Select allcat /tmp/amazon-main | mail mylocalusername@yellowstone.bohlsen.lan
that worked without problems.
the amazon email address that is sending me mails is:

I was using my usb Alfa AWUS036H-v5 usb wifi card, and then after I rebooted, it randomly stopped working.. did some searching on the site, one idea was to do
Code:
sudo lshw -C network
which I did, and it shows my internal wifi card (iwl3945) working fine, but says my wlan7 (Alfa usb) as:
network* Disabled
Also, in the upper right hand corner, the antenna is greyed out and says "Device Not Ready"
Okay currently I am using a a Belkin F6D4050v1 usb wireless n card on a 32 bit intall of ubuntu 9.10. I have already installed ndiswrapper and installed the the rt2870.inf driver and rebooted. But i still have no wireless. when I use the command "sudo lshw -C network" all i see is my pci wired nic card"lsusb" the ID of the card is "050d:935a Belkin Components""sudo iwconfig" sayslo no wireless extensionsetho no wireless extensions
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a wired connection on the motherboard and a also a card for wireless communication.Wired connection works fine but my plan is now to setup wireless connection too.I was advised to use this in order to find installed network devices: sudo lshw -C network.Not sure, but I think it only reports details about the wired device. Is that correct?How could I get ubuntu to also find my wifi-card?

In ubuntu its called kmozillahelper. There was similar packages in Debian (called differently as far as I remember). I happily used it in unstable, but several weeks ago it disappeared for some reason and I can not find it.info on iceweasel + KDE integration in Debian?
View 10 Replies View RelatedThere is lot of iso, and the kernel is the very important thing for the install since the hardware is depending, directly. Unfortunately kernels are changing and it could be interesting to have the information for each iso cdrom. I guess it might be somewhere but that's not so obvious and easy to find (never found where). Debian is cool, nicest distro ever !
View 8 Replies View RelatedI am running Wheezy 7.9 and recently created a file, in xorg.conf.d, to set the monitor configuration because the EDID is not always read from the monitor. Everything works great but when the EDID is not read the monitor name, as shown in System Settings>Displays, shows as Unknown. I have the vendor info and modelname in the config file but they do not show in the Display GUI. Is there some variable that I can set in order to get a good monitor name displayed?
Probably should include some more information. I am using the Gnome Classic desktop and gdm manager. Here is the monitor conf file that I put in /etc/X11/xorg,conf.d

I have an issue when running the phpinfo() command on a webpage. Occasionally the Default timezone setting shows 'utc', at others it show 'Europe/Berlin'. To prove I'm not going mad I screen captured a short video of the display changing while all I was doing was pressing F5.
The system is set to a European timezone i.e. both date and hwclock commands show 'CET'. There was an update to the Debian tzdata package which I installed at the beginning of February 2010. I'm not aware of there being a problem before that but I could be wrong about that.

Most of the time whenever I run dpkg -l I get cryptic output. For instance
[Code]...
Because I normally use it to see only one file (while multiple files are possible as well), was wondering if there was a way to tell dpkg to show couple of lines as output. I do see that there is a /etc/dpkg/dpkg.cfg file as well as /etc/dpkg/dpkg.cfg.d directory as well. Looking forward to info. on the same.
I can't seem to update the repository indexes regardless of which official server/mirror I use. I pick one server from the built-in software sources list and then I get this:

Now how can that be? Shouldn't the built-in repository addresses be correct? My installation is one week old clean install. Since then I've installed broadcom wlan-drivers (I tried repo update w/ wired connection too) and Dropbox but other than that I'm pretty clean.
I've created a local repository, my web server (apache) is up and running and my repo is inside it, so I want to install debian using it, in the stage of enter manually the info of the debian mirror I put:
1. debian archive mirror hostname:
192.168.10.1
2. debian archive mirror directory:
/repo
But after this, the installation tell me that it doesn't find the repo, I tried several ways, like: http://192.168.10.1; /repo/; /repo/ binary/ but nothing. What is the correct syntax to use my local repo?
How can I know about the debian files I've installed from the internet via command line? Is there any command to have info about debian files? I've installed google chrome, opera, etc...I want to what debian files I've installed? Can I know there locations?

I've seen some desktop screengrabs which have included a transparent graphic (usually in the upper right corner of the screen) that displays current system information such as the hostname, kernel revision, CPU utilization, etc., that is constantly updated.Is that something that is available from Debian? I would like to install it to check it out, if it's available.

Is there a command line utility to tell me about what's inside a video file? Say I have a .mpg file. I want to know about the video stream and the various audio streams, the codec used for the video stream, the bitrate of the video stream, and so on.
