Debian :: Install Disks For Full Gnome Desktop?

Mar 28, 2011

Earlier today I installed Debian Squeeze with Gnome off the 64-bit CD 1. I didn't have my ethernet connected and ended up only getting a pretty minimal desktop with not much installed besides Gnome. This bothered me, as I thought I could install the whole desktop off the CD. I reinstalled, this time with my Ethernet connected. This time it took much more time and gave me what I wanted, a complete desktop. Simply put, what do I need to install everything that I currently have without having my Ethernet plugged in?

Debian Hardware :: Servers Which Contain SATA Disks And SAS Disks?

Feb 25, 2010

I have servers which contain SATA disks and SAS disks. I was testing the speed of writing on these servers and I recognized that SAS 10.000 disks much more slowly than the SATA 7200. What do you think about this slowness? What are the reasons of this slowness?

I am giving the below rates (values) which I took from my test (from my comparisons between SAS 10.000 and SATA 7200);

dd if=/dev/zero of=bigfile.txt bs=1024 count=1000000 when this comment was run in SAS disk server, I took this output(10.000 rpm)

(a new server,2 CPU 8 core and 8 gb ram)

1000000+0 records in
1000000+0 records out
1024000000 bytes (1.0 GB) copied, 12.9662 s, 79.0 MB/s (I have not used this server yet) (hw raid1)

Debian Installation :: Dialup Not Supported

Jul 9, 2015

My home connection is dialup via an 8-bit ISA modem. I plan to use the old box with the modem in it as a gateway and do my actual work on this laptop. Connection away from home is not so easy to get in my area.

SuSE 6.1 has no problem operating the modem, so the hardware works. SuSE 6.1 can't seem to make anything else work though. How can I configure Debian to see and operate this modem?

SuSE sees the modem on /dev/ttyS1. The same chat script does nothing on jessie. I'm guessing that jessie is just not seeing ISA.

I'm able to install packages onto the box via a usb drive but that's only on the days when the local coffee shop's wi-fi actually works, which is rare.

Debian Multimedia :: SOUND - Line In Works But Doesn't Appear In Gnome Setup

Jun 4, 2015

I am runnig Jessie with the default GNOME. Every thing has been perfectly smooth, but for the audio line in. First you should now the same hardware was working well with Wheezy. Then the hardware card is RealTek ALC887-VD and I am using the analogic part (both for in and out lines).

Below I will write some command results, but first, it seems important to describe the problem. I can hear the audio line in. If I blow in a mic, I definitelly hear the sound of it in the output. With alsamixer I can toggle the line in level and it works fine. By the way, with pavucontrol, it is the same I have access to the line in. but when I look in the Gnome setting for the sound, input, no card is available, then no volume setting is available.

--> as a result, I can't record the sound from the mic. it is sent directly to the output without been taken into account in the system. So no comment on video making, no skype …

On the web, the problem is always "no sound with this card" "No sound after upgrade to Jessie"… but Card is working fine but no seen on a upper level…

Code: Select allroot@Desktop:~# lsmod |grep snd
snd_hda_codec_realtek    67127  1
snd_hda_codec_generic    63142  1 snd_hda_codec_realtek
snd_hda_codec_hdmi     45118  1

Debian Multimedia :: Command Line Login To 8.0 64bit Gnome Classical?

Nov 12, 2015

debian 8 64bit
gnome classical gui
user is dd
psswd is word
adm psswd is adword
unlock crypt psswd is crypto

This is how I start debian. I can choose between debian gnulinux and advanced options. I select debian.

Then 'please unlock crypt' shoIws. I enter 'crypto'.

Then debian gui login screen shows. I enter 'dd' and 'word'.

Debian 8 gnome classical starts.

Can I login to debian 8 gnome classical by entering 'dd' and 'word' in a command line?

I do not want to login by debian gui login screen. But by command line.

If I select advanced options. Then recovery mode, I can get a command line. If I can login there, then I do not know how to.

Ubuntu Installation :: Which Disks Can Be Main Boot Disks

Mar 31, 2010

I have/had a PC with several hard drives, and a mix of ubuntu and windows on multi boot.The old boot drive died screaming, and I need to start again. (But my data is safe! yay!)

Is there anything special about which drive can be the main drive to start booting from? Or to put it another way, can I install to any of the other 3 and expect it to work, or do I need to switch them around so a different drive is on the connections for the recently dead one?

Debian :: Grub On Two Disks - Conflict?

Aug 14, 2015

When booting, the grub menu appears and allows me to boot from the internal hard disk (sda) any OS there, such as WHEEZY (sda9). On the external disk (sdb) there is a dd'd copy (not an installation) of SQUEEZE (sdb1), which at one time was on sda but which has different partition assigments listed in its grub.cfg than the current ones shown below for sda.

Code:

Select allNAME   MAJ:MIN RM   SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT
sda      8:0    0 111.8G  0 disk
├─sda1   8:1    0    23G  0 part
├─sda3   8:3    0     1K  0 part
├─sda5   8:5    0   3.9G  0 part [SWAP]
├─sda6   8:6    0  11.7G  0 part
├─sda7   8:7    0  19.5G  0 part /home/norman/data

[code]....

Can I manually boot the SQUEEZE copy on sdb1 using grub commands (set, linux, initrd, boot) without disturbing the WHEEZY and other OSs on sda? Or will they be disrupted?Alternatively if for example JESSIE is installed in sdb3, for example, can it be booted similarly without affecting the installations on sda? I hesitate to try this by trial and error because of the work and time involved in rebuilding messed-up OSs to their desired configurations.

Debian Installation :: Booting On Two Separate Disks?

Sep 13, 2010

Got Wintendo7 on one samsung S-ATA disk. ( need it for starcraft2 and Homeworld2... sorry.. )

Now..: Booting Debian Unstable from USB or CD-ROM, then start installer. Tell it to install on second samsung S-ATA disk.
Before I go on, I just feel i will get into some serious trouble with GRUB?

Or will the installer understand, and see the windows7 installation and add it to Grub?

If not, what should I do inside /boot/grub/menu.lst when Debian is up and running?

Ubuntu :: 9.10 - Internet Dialup With Winmodem

Jan 17, 2010

I am new to Ubuntu and Linux. I think that I like Ubuntu, but I don't think it likes me! I can't get onto the internet with my "old fashioned" dialup that is preinstalled in my Dell Latitude. In fact I can't find any reference to a dialup modem in Ubuntu 9.10. Have done some research and it appears that my winmodem will not work with linux, but there maybe some complex way around this problem. Can it be done? I have a Conexant HDA D110 MDC V.92 modem.

General :: 64 Bit System Does Not Have A Dialup Option?

Oct 10, 2010

I have a 64 bit system on which I am trying to install Linux. I installed Ubuntu but it does not have a dialup option and since I live in a rural area I only have access to dialup at this time.

Does anyone know of a 64 bit operating system which contains dialup capability? I have tried reading about the various distros but have been unable to find any which indicate they work with dialup.

Debian Configuration :: Duplicate Disks With Same Uuid Under Fdisk

Jan 19, 2016

I am running Debian 3.2.0-0.bpo.2-amd64 on hyper-v, my / volume ran out of space and is sitting at 100%, I have extended the disk size on hyper-v, however when I go to Fdisk I see duplicates of each disk.

I have total of 2 vhds on the vm, so I see 4 disks under fdisk. Here is the output of fdisk

Debian Configuration :: Reorganizing Disks In MD RAID Array

Mar 4, 2010

I'm trying to do some RAID managing with mdadm. I would like to sync my spare disk and then remove it from the array for making a backup out of it with dd command (the best way i can think of to get the current image of the whole system as it can't be done using the active RAID as source, because is constantly in use and changing). So, I have RAID1 array with 1 spare and 2 active disks (configuration listed below). Now I would like to force spare to sync and then remove it from array, although not faulty.

However, mdadm man page states:
"Devices can only be removed from an array if they are not in active use. i.e. that must be spares or failed devices. To remove an active device, it must be marked as faulty first."

So, I'd have to mark a disk as faulty (which it is not) to be able to remove it from array. There seems to be several people reporting that they can't remove this faulty flag accidentally given to a drive. And mdadm does not give direct for such operation. Isn't there a way I could remove and add disks whenever feeling like it?? One way would be open the cover and physically remove the disk. I'm not taking the risk, though. System is almost always in use, so there is not much chance for me to power off for temporary disk removal.

RAID CONFIGURATION:
~# mdadm --detail /dev/md0
/dev/md0:
Version : 00.90.03
Creation Time : Fri Aug 4 17:38:26 2006
Raid Level : raid1
Array Size : 238950720 (227.88 GiB 244.69 GB)

Debian Configuration :: Fdisk And System Disagree About Disks?

Dec 15, 2010

I have never seen this one before (see below) - note how /dev/sda1 is mounted from the first disk listed by fdisk, but /dev/sda2 comes from the second disk; what is going on here? This is what I did: I installed the latest debian "Testing", which went well - it found the disks in the order show by fdisk -l here. When it booted up after installation, it failed because it couldn't find /, which I repaired by editing the grub menu (I told it to start from the other disk), and it came up. But now I had to mount /u01 by hand from /dev/sda1; strange. I suppose I could just go and change the physical disks around, but I'd like to understand this. Any ideas?

# fdisk -l
Disk /dev/sda: 320.1 GB, 320072933376 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 38913 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes

Fedora Networking :: F12 Dialup Modem Not Working / Fix It?

I am currently using Open SuSE 11.3 and connect to the internet through a fixed wireless terminal (CDMA Wireless modem), Huawei ETS-1201 with BSNL connection. The problem is that, after dialling and connecting to the internet, some pages dont load randomly. Sometimes, Google loads quite fine, but other times, it is just stuck and I have to reload the page several times. When I connect through Windows, I have no such problem. I have used Fedora, Ubuntu and Sabayon but the same problem exists. I don't want to return to Windows but is frustrated with my web experience on linux.

Debian Hardware :: Adding Scsi Hard Disks To Wheezy

Feb 17, 2015

Installing two scsi hard disks on a debian system.

It is a physical old HP machine (netserver lc2000) with a fresh debian wheezy 7.0.8 installed.

It has two scsi hdds (73GBs) that I don't know how to add to the system so I can partition, format, mount, etc.

This is what I have tried so far:

1. dmesg output
Code: Select all# dmesg | grep scsi
[    2.173909] scsi0 : pata_serverworks
[    2.174377] scsi1 : pata_serverworks
[    2.417276] scsi 0:0:0:0: CD-ROM            LITEON   CD-ROM LTN485S   JKF1 PQ: 0 ANSI: 5
[    2.622195] sr0: scsi3-mmc drive: 48x/48x cd/rw xa/form2 cdda tray
[    2.623194] sr 0:0:0:0: Attached scsi CD-ROM sr0

[Code] ....

2. lsscsi output
-I installed lsscsi and here is the output:
Code: Select all# lsscsi --device
[0:0:0:0]    cd/dvd  LITEON   CD-ROM LTN485S   JKF1  /dev/sr0
[2:0:0:0]    disk    HP       Net Mirror       V1.0  /dev/sda
[2:2:0:0]    disk    HP       9.10GB C 80-P94N P94N  -       
[2:2:1:0]    disk    HP       9.10GB C 80-P94N P94N  -       

[Code] ....

3. force scsi scan
-I tried to use this command to force a rescan for the hdds, but nothing happened:
Code: Select allecho "- - -" > /sys/class/scsi_host/host3/scan

-no errors, but log says nothing
-tried the above with host0 - 4, same result

4. fdisk -l
Code: Select all# fdisk -l

Disk /dev/sda: 9098 MB, 9098887168 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 1106 cylinders, total 17771264 sectors
Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes

[Code] ....

5. tried to specifically add one device but it didn't work:
Code: Select all# echo "scsi add-single-device 2 2 8 0" > /proc/scsi/scsi
-bash: /proc/scsi/scsi: No such file or directory
