I'm running Debian 5.0. I've been following the tutorial here http://www.py2exe.org/index.cgi/Tutorial but it seems I can't get it to work. I'm guessing, Python didn't come with the Distutils that I need. I've search the repositories and the On-line debian package database, but can't find a Distutils package, I've installed python-dev, but that still appears to not contain the module for py2exe.

I have been trying to install a command line Debian Squeeze system on n Eee PC 701., but have run into a number of problems:
1) All install info I can find assumes that the person wants to install a GUI system of some sort.
2) The Eee PC has a unique 2 MB. partition that needs to be preserved, so no guided install.
3) The Eee PC has an SSD instead of an HD. Most postings I have seen recommend an install without a swap partition, but the install (both live and text) seems to choke and despite a fresh formatting of the existing partition, claims to be overwriting existing files.
4) I can understand from the wiki that the Eee PC wireless driver (Atheros) should be included in Squeeze, but when the wireless connection and password is added, the installer claims that the password is not correct, despite me having checked it a number of times.
I hope someone can help me out. I just want to use the Eee PC for low resource stuff done on the cli like using a text based web browser to access the net through a wireless router and to hook it up to an external USB HD and to my stereo, to play my music collection.
I have installed Windows 7 on my laptop . Now, it directly boot from Windows 7 . I think the MBR overwrote my grub . I have found two methods by google , but still does work .
1: boot from debian install CD, Alt +F2 switch to the console. "grub " "root (hd0,0)" "setup (hd0,0)".
2:boot from CD, mount /dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part1 /mnt ; chroot /mnt ; grub-install /dev/sda.
I installed Debian Squeeze with no issues. I went to install latest Nvidia driver as done previously with Lenny. Used instructions that worked on lenny from "the trooper" [url]
Downloaded th latest driver for my GeForce 7300 GS vidio card, driver package NVIDIA-Linux-x86-260.19.12.run
Used "method # 2 as described in HOW TO,as it worked perfectly in the past on Lenny. Only syntax I changed was instead of gdm I typed gdm3 as it appears that is the new name for gnome in Squeeze.
Did as folows:
Now the trouble showed up, Unfortunatly I can only go off my memory. A question was asked stating that something did not match, it needed a 3 and the driver had a 4 version or somethng of this sort. then it asked if I new what I was doing (and I lied) and selected yes. And whammo, it didn't work. (This question was asked when i did in Lenny and it is working perfectly still on that system). I now can not boot to GUI, I notice when system boots it starts in "S" mode although I select normal boot from grub2.
Not too bad if I got to reinstall as little is on the system. I just want to know what I am missing on the instalation deal or should I be going about this difrently with Squeeze.
I have downloaded Debian/PowerPC_lenny from http://www.debian.org/distrib/netinst. The netinst CD or the minimal CD for some reason doesn't boot. When I put it in the CD-ROM it doesn't begin whatever it has to do. Do I need to do anything? I restart my iBook G4 (1.33 GHz PowerPC G4) several times and held the "c" button (for CD-ROM) but nothing has happened. I wonder if someone can help me begin the installation process.
FYI, I have partitioned my hard drive into two volumes. I would like to install Debian in one of them. I *do not* want my Mac OS X to get disappeared in the Debian installation process. So please help me if you would as to how I can (1) boot Debian minimal CD and (2) install Debian on one of the two volumes I have on my iBook.
I have a live cd of debian for powerpc and I am trying to install it on my old eMac that runs Mac OSX version 10.4. So how do I boot from the cd with or without using open firmware?

View 10 Replies View RelatedI'm taking a course in school on computer graphics and we are using Linux as the main operating system. I myself am more accustomed to using windows but have always wanted to give Linux a try. So the other day I dual-booted my laptop with Fedora 12 and so far I'm liking it. I do have one main question however. I need to install Mesa to do my OpenGL programming with but I'm not sure how to install it. I have downloaded a tar.gz file from the Mesa website and have tried running it from the terminal by using these commands: (note: the commands are from the Linux Newbie Guide i found on google)
cd /Tudor's Home/local
tar -xvzf /Tudor's Home/MESA/MesaLib-7.7.tar.gz
cd "the new directory it was extracted to" (gets changed to the actual extraction folder)
./configure
make
make install
Now, I'm not sure why this doesn't work. The extracting doesn't even work so I'm not sure whether these commands are the same in Fedora or what I am doing wrong? I have installed aMSN from an rpm file and it worked perfectly but I'm not sure how to install using makeFiles. Any good tutorials on makeFiles and how to install them? or a link to Mesa as an rpm file? So I can start learning OpenGL.
Hi,
This is my first time here.
I have installed GTK by "sudo apt-get install gnome-core-devel" and I can build the test-application named "Hello ubuntu" successfully with `pkg-config --cflags --libs gtk+-2.0`.
But when I built an application which needs the GTK's support, it said as follows:
checking for gtk-config... no
checking for GTK - version >= 0.99.7... no
*** The gtk-config script installed by GTK could not be found
*** If GTK was installed in PREFIX, make sure PREFIX/bin is in
*** your path, or set the GTK_CONFIG environment variable to the
*** full path to gtk-config.
configure: error: Cannot find proper gtk version
I don't know what's wrong with it,anyone can help me?
Thanks a lot!

so a friend of mine that really liked the Debian Linux I had, had me install it it on his hard drive. I stupidly believed him when he said that he wasn't going to go back to windows, but now he wants to. This was almost a year ago and now that his entire hard drive is formatted to linux (with more than 40 gigs in programs and files) I was wondering if I could install windows XP on the second hard drive (currently not being used) then re-run grub from an install CD to recognize both the WIndows and Linux installations.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI've been using Ubuntu since 8.04 and I'm getting tired of it. Every time I update to the latest version, even if I wait awhile, something always breaks. I want an OS that I can update without having to worry about something breaking and I hear that Debian is great for that. I'll be installing it in a few hours when I get back from Iron Man 2. I just created this thread because I know I'm going to have questions. Don't worry, I'll try to solve any problems I come across myself before asking here. I'll be installing Debian Stable because I figure that'll be good enough for me.

I was wondering. Up till now whenever I installed Linux I've either dual booted with Windows off 1 HDD, or installed straight Linux by itself. However, I recently purchased a second HDD for my computer, and was wondering how I could go about installing Debian on the second drive without messing with the windows drive? Right now I have Windows 7 installed on my 1TB drive, and would like to try and install Debian on my second (750GB) drive. Would it be possible to install Debian on the second drive, install grub on that drive's MBR so I could choose between Debian and Win7 without touching the MBR on the 1TB Windows drive?
I'm paranoid about messing up my Seven installation, but really want to be able to load into Debian as well.
