Commands not found at startup
On a newly installed Debian Woody, I have made a new kernel with pristine 2.4.22 kernel sources and make-kpkg. When I boot the new kernel I get messages, such as: "getent: command not found" "head: command not found" "awk: command not found" and the system does not boot up fully, seemingly because many other binaries cannot be found either. I do get a prompt, but no programs are available, only the bash builtins. When I boot the original 2.4.18 kernel there are no problems - except that I only utilize one of the systems' two processors. Those are all commands from /usr/bin. I have a separate /usr partition. Could that cause it? What could I do about it? Thanks in advance.

I had accidentally chosen ReiserFS instead of Ext3 when configuring the kernel, so when I tried issuing 'mount -s' after booting the new kernel, I got a message about mount not knowing anything about Ext3.

Compiling Mozilla 1.4 on Debian Woody
Has anyone here compiled Mozilla 1.4 on Debian Woody? I'm trying, but I seem to be unable to get a working result. Already when I run the configure script coming with the source code, I get an error message in the output: ./conftest: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory When the configure script has run I can issue 'make' and everything seems to run OK, but when I have issued 'make install' and try to run the newly installed Mozilla 1.4, I get an error message telling me the same thing as the one I got from the configure script. The strange thing is that I *do* have a libstdc++.so.5 since I have gcc 3.3 installed under /usr/local: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ gcc -v Reading specs from /usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3/specs Configured with: ../gcc-3.3/configure --prefix=/usr/local --enable-threads=posix --enable-languages=c,c++,java,ada Thread model: posix gcc version 3.3 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ find /usr -name libstdc++\.so* 2> /dev/null | xargs ls -l lrwxrwxrwx1 root root 33 Sep 13 18:25 /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-linux/2.95.4/libstdc++.so -> ../../../libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3 lrwxrwxrwx1 root root 18 Sep 13 18:25 /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.3 -> libstdc++.so.3.0.4 -rw-r--r--1 root root 570460 Apr 8 2002 /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.3.0.4 lrwxrwxrwx1 root staff 18 Sep 13 23:18 /usr/local/lib/libstdc++.so -> libstdc++.so.5.0.4 lrwxrwxrwx1 root staff 18 Sep 13 23:18 /usr/local/lib/libstdc++.so.5 -> libstdc++.so.5.0.4 -rwxr-xr-x1 root staff 4229977 Sep 13 23:18 /usr/local/lib/libstdc++.so.5.0.4 So - what am I missing?

I issued export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH before configuring Mozilla 1.4 again, and this time I didn't get the complaint about the libstdc++.so.5 missing.

xdm setup
I'm looking into the graphical login setup on my newly installed Debian Woody. I'm used to having a line near the end of /etc/inittab that says how the graphical login screen should behave, for instance: # Run XDM in run level 5 x:5:respawn:/usr/bin/X11/xdm -nodaemon I don't see this in the default Debian /etc/inittab file (I chose xdm as my display manager during installation).

No sourcing of ~/.profile at login
It seems to me that ~/.profile is not being sourced at login, but ~/.bashrc is, on my newly installed Debian Woody. I'm used to having this in ~/.profile: if test -f /etc/profile; then . /etc/profile fi if test -f ~/.bashrc; then . ~/.bashrc fi ...since I'm used to ~/.profile being guaranteed as being sourced at user login, and then having contents in ~/.profile that make sure that ~/.bashrc is being sourced also. It seems things are the other way around on Debian...or am I just confused? If I'm right, how do I control what *does* happen at user login? Hope you can help.

Umm...didn't get that. The first line in my /etc/X11/Xsession says
#!/bin/sh.
Here is what I can find that's bash-related under /etc/X11:
dt:/etc/X11# find . -type f | xargs grep bash
./twm/menudefs.hook: "Bash"f.exec "x-terminal-emulator -T
\"Bash\" -e /bin/bash -login &"
./twm/system.twmrc: "Bash"f.exec "x-terminal-emulator -T \"Bash\"

./sawfish/debian-menu.jl: '("Bash" (system "exec
x-terminal-emulator -T \"Bash\" -e /bin/bash -login &"))

The two systems between which I experience the problem know about each other through /etc/host files, so I'm not sure that's the problem. The one system is a SuSE Linux system with openSSH 3.4p1 that I can ssh to from outside my LAN. The authentication has always been *very* swift on that system. The other system is a Debian 3.0r1 also with openSSH 3.4p1 (the default Debian package). I experience slow authentications both ways with this system. I just tried copying the sshd_config file from the SuSE system to the Debian system, and when I restarted the sshd server, I got a message about the protocol version being disabled, because the host key could not be loaded.

Resent-From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I have tried running make-kpkg as a first attempt in making my own
kernel on a newly installed Debian 3.0_r1 on a Sun Ultra 1.
To be sure I would get working kernel in first try I used the 2.4.18
kernel sources included in the distribution and used the config file
that the running kernel was built from: /boot/config-2.4.18
The idea was to ensure that this worked and then begin to modify.
I cannot even get a working kernel with the default config!
This is what I issue:
# cd /usr/src
# tar -xjvf kernel-source-2.4.18.tar.bz2
# cd kernel-source-2.4.18
# make menuconfig
.. Here I load the config file under /boot .
# make-kpkg kernel_image
The last lines I see from make_kpkg are these:
cd /usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.18/debian/tmp-image/lib/modules/2.4.18; \
mkdir -p pcmcia; \
find kernel -path '*/pcmcia/*' -name '*.o' | xargs -i -r ln -sf ../{}
pcmcia
if [ -r System.map ]; then /sbin/depmod -ae -F System.map -b
/usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.18/debian/tmp-image -r 2.4.18; fi
depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in
/usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.18/debian/tmp-image/lib/modules/2.4.18/kernel/fs/binfmt_elf.o
depmod: mem_map_zero
depmod: get_user_pages

make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.18'
make[1]: *** [real_stamp_image] Error 2

What could cause this behaviour?

Ethernet lockup
I have noticed a thread on this list around a week ago that dealt with the ethernet lockup with the Linux hme driver. There was a posting by Joshua Uziel that pointed to a patch to this driver. I'm new to Debian so my question may seem strange to some here, but I cannot see how to use this patch since the 2.4.18 kernel that comes with my 3.0_r1 installation seems to be monolithic, and vanilla kernel source does not build on my system.

Kernel symlinks
I have built a new kernel with make-kpkg and installed it with dpkg -i .deb I then checked /boot and saw that the vmlinuz symlink there still points to the old kernel, whereas the vmlinuz symlink under / points to the recently installed kernel.
