Xawtv

2003-10-31 Thread Wayne Sitton
ok this is another plea for help.  I've got an AverTV Studio tv tuner/fm
radio/capture card.  I know it is supported because when I boot into
Knoppix from a knoppix cd the card works perfectly.

Under my Debian Sid installation, I get a picture, but no sound. 
However the radio works fine when using gradio.  So, I'm sure the
problem is in the xawtv.  I've tried to compile kwintv, but it doesn't
seem to be able to find the QT installation.  i tried a program called
zapping, but it locks up my system when I start it.

I really would appreciate it if someone could point me in the right
direction as to where to find look to find out why xawtv isn't playing
sound

Re: Q: Oracle vs Debian?

Yes, I installed Oracle 8i and 9 on Woody.  The only problem I remember
having is having to make a symlink because the name of the gcc library
was different than what oracle was looking for.  also in looking through
a bunch of support docs, I remember reading that alot of the oracle guys
used Debian as their test bed, the only reason to certify only red hat
was a purely motivated by the fact that ignorant management only
recognizes redhat when the word linux is mentioned.

I myself am not a pure-ist.  But, I no longer use windows, and Boot
Debian Sid for my OS of choice.  I have long promoted Debian, even while
my colleagues were Red Krap freaks because they thought it was cool to
like linux, but not really know anything. But I have to say I agree with
the original poster.

Although I agree that our biggest threats to the 'Open Source' movement
is things like the DMCA...etc.  There is also the problem of the small
threat. Not to 'Opensource', but to Linux it self.  'Opensource' is not
Linux, it's a way of life.

Companies like Tigerdirect, by promoting XP, have shown a bias.  They
are a hardware distributor, who are now promoting a software upon the
hardware they sell.

Are we not a legitimate OS that can run on the same hardware?

Companies like Dell stopped selling Linux based computers because there
was a lack of interest.  But it was funny that I noticed that the same
hardware could be bought for a cheaper price, from them,  when it was
shipped with winblows. Only problem was, and have experienced this, Dell
would not honor their warranty if it was shipped with winblows, and got
formated and Linux installed.

I mean holly fril, If Gateway had a sticker that guaranteed that every
piece of hardware on a specific Box was Linux compatible, no matter what
os was shipped, they'd probably become better than they are currently. 
But, why do they not get this?  HP recently announced that they will
start supporting Debian, but where on their site can I gat a laptop
pre-installed with Debian?

I just want these companies to recognize that we buy too, and that we
want to know if a particular product is Linux compatible.  I mean, a
while back I was a big ATI fan.  But, once I realized they would support
the video drivers only, but not support the All-in-Wonder card's TV
functions, I completely quit using them, and am now anti-ATI unless they
get their shit together and support Linux as a whole and not just when
they want too.  At least nVidia puts out Linux drivers for their cards!
(yes, I know about the gatos project, but it's an outside thingATI
has not helped them.)


Hell, Bioware...although took way too long to put out the Linux version
binaries for NeverWinter's Nights, at least they put it out.  Unlike all
these other companies who don't consider my OS worth while to develop
for.

These companies promote the M$ monopoly, and should realise that maybe,
currently M$ may have a lagre group, 70% to whatever of the desktop
world(just a guess for the rant), but are you really wanting to lose 30%
of your business?  And what if M$ goes underif you have never
developed for others you go under as well.  Jesus, how much of common
sense does this take for them to get it?

Honestly, how many of us would go completely to a particular hardware
vender if they had a stamp that said'Linux Compatible'.  You know we
all would.

And, I don't have a problem if tigerdirect, or anyone else, has banners
that are windows oriented, but if they promote that they recommend
windows over anything else, then we should let them know that we are
Buyers as well and would appreciate equal advertisement or they will not
get our business, and promote against them...like maybe a link page of
Linux-friendly hardware distributors, or whatever we can to make these
game developers and hardware makes know that we want to be supported,
and are tired of being treated like second class citizens.

I don't give a damn if most computers run winblows...I don't! and I want
to watch DVD's, play games, burn cd's, and do all the same things they
do.

And, my opinion is that if they don'

Debian versions correctly follow a release cycle and tend to have very few
exploits as well as being less buggy.. We have the same problem here.. If
you get any really good arguments send them to me to please.  You get
better package granularity in debian. You have a much nicer internet
upgrading system with apt.  You can get the same support for debian as
red-hat from VA. Red-hat is far more flashy but prone to screwups where
debian is the conservative, slowly evolving platform (if you only use
stable/frozen).  Debian doesn 't have a bunch of arbitrary and stupid file

Hey guys,  I finnally got Debian 2.2 installed and running on my laptop.

My biggest problme was X,  Why can't these companies just use normal
video chipsets?
Anyhow, it's working!!!

I have a ess solo sound card.  I installed it as a module, and it works
fineunder root
It will not work under my user account, so where do I need to change
permissions, ownership, or do I need to add myself to another group?
I read somewhere that you need to add youself to the audio group(dip),
but I don't have that group on my system.  also the gnome cd player will
also not run under my user log-in, I suspect that is because it doesn't
have the right to mount the drive.  So what do i need to do?
I'm not worried about user security, because I will be the only one

They are.  However, the winmodem manufactuers buy the DSP software in their
drivers under a ferocious NDA and they are afraid to release any data at
all for fear that the DSP software vendor will accuse them of breaching the
NDA and cancel their licenses.  If they lose those licenses they are out of
business.

Besides, why bother when real modems are readily available?

I've purchased a yopy, and have started compiling some apps for it, but I
find myself wanting some debian tool(such as apt/dselect).  I'm sure I could
compile both into the yopy's linux, but I want to set up my own source
server for the yopy to connect to.
With only packages I want on yopy.  I do not know how to do this.  Could
someone please either tell me how, or point me to a how-to?

embeded debian

2001-07-06 Thread Wayne Sitton
My company just started developing for the YOPY PDA.  Me personaly, I am a
Debian guy, so I found the Embeded debian project(http://www.emdebian.org).
Unfortunately, their listserv basically has no traffic.  So, does anyone
know if their is an official, or plans for an official, Embeded Debian  or a
Debian dist. based on the ARM processor.  OR, dose their need to be?

Agreed, I have found many problems with gpm.  Un-install the thing and just 
do /dev/psaux or link /dev/mouse to /dev/psaux and just set it as your mouse.

PHP4

I built a new server put Debian woody on it.  It has Apache 1.3.  I installed 
PHP4 from dselect.  when I go into the httpd.conf I don't find a load module 
for mod_php4.so but I do see a loadmodule for libphp4.so

I set the funtions in the srm.conf, but when I go to the site it shows the

Re: PHP4(fixed one problem, now I have another)

2001-07-19 Thread Wayne Sitton
Part of my problem was apache.  I had installed apache & php4 before I 
upgraded it to woody.  Somehow during the upgrade something must have 
happened to apache.  I uninstalled both apache & php4, the reinstalled both.
Not it's reading the php webpages

But now it's having problems accessing my mysql server.  I installed the 
php4-mysql package.  I remember before that someone said there was a problem 
with that package in woody, but that the one from sid works fine.

SB pci 128 & jetway motherboards

I Just solved a sound problem with My Desktop.
I purchased a SB PCI 128 and after installing it, I could play CD's, but the 
sound was very low, and when I played wav's, etc. I got alot of distortion 
and whistleing.  At first I thought I got a bad card.  It turns out that 
Jetway motherboards will not work with a SB PCI 128 without a bios upgrade.
SO, a good hint for all, and one to add to Will's Newbie hint's.  If having 
problems, check the Motherboard's Manufacture website for known problems.

Re: Progeny Debian

At work I use potato on my servers and woody on my workstation.  But, at home 
I decided to try out Progeny.  It's a nice distrobution, and yes the updates 
are free.  It uses Grub instead of lilo, and when you update it also updates 
to the the current kernel that progeny is using.  At work I manually upgrade 
to newer kernels, so sometimes it's nice for it to be done automatically.  I 
haven't tried to upgrade progeny to woody/sid, but since progeny is a 
combination of potatoe and woody, I haven't seen a need to.

Re: Gericom Laptop: X Problem with the Screensetting

I have an Asus laptop with the same problem.  X and sis630 don't work
very well together.  The best way to do this is by recompiling the
kernel and enable the framebuffer.  Once that is done add to your
lilo.conf  vga=791
remember to run lilo before you reboot
you should be able to 1025x768x32

and I'm running xXFree86 4.1.0

OH and use framebuffer driver not tie sis driver.

Let me know if you have problems.

Re: Gericom Laptop: X Problem with the Screensetting

2001-12-14 Thread Wayne Sitton
You can test out different settings at the lilo prompt
By making the argument there it will superceed the conf file
vga=791 is correct for 1024x768x16
But, some have had success with vga=864
which should give you 1024x768x24
I was never able to get that mode to work on my laptop which is an 
ASUS A1300.  The guy who told me about it had an ASUS A1370, which is
suppose to be the exact same hardware just a bigger HD and more memory.

Re: Sync WinCE device with Evolution ?

2001-12-15 Thread Wayne Sitton

First of all let me tell you that Ximanim(or whatever) made Evolution so
close to Outlook that it's like the microsoft problem.  It's buggy, it
crashes alot...etc. 

For one, I have never been able to import my microsoft .pst file.
Two, I also cannot import my Kmail, or linux Netscape mail files.
Three, Even though I check "remember my password", it never Does.
Four, I've had to re-set up my accounts 3 times because it crashed and
does not remember the setup.

So, in my opinion, the have made it so much like Microsoft, they have
copied their problems.

SO, I do not think it will sync with CE.  It can't even do what was
promised!

I'll try the workaround, but mine was a fresh install of 1.0

1.0, Yes I did mix.  I tried Ximian's Gnome a while back on a different
box, and found it installed/changed too much Debian stuff and started
causing problems with some othere stuff.  So in this case I just
installed what I needed to get running.

Re: Sync WinCE device with Evolution ?

2001-12-16 Thread Wayne Sitton
As far as I know it cannot be done.  To sync with a WinCE device you
would have to be running ActiveSync.  I seriously doubt Microsoft has
any inclination to port it to Linux.  

The other problem, which I found after doing some research.  There is no
way to import(directly) the outlook.pst file.  the PST format is
propriatery(spelling?)  Which is another reason there is not Sync for us
with WinCE devices.  To get your email into Evolution you have to go to
a windows machine and install Mozilla.  Mozilla mail(for Windows) has
the ability to convert the PST file to an mbox file or files.  I have
not checked wheather or not Mozilla for Linux can do the conversion. 
Then you put the mbox files on your linux machine, and import the files
into Evolution.  This is just for your mail.  If you want your contacts,
you have to go into outlook, export your contacts to a DOS format, then
Ximian has a perl script to convert it to a format that Evolution can
handle.

So since Evolution does not use or handle the pst format.  There will be
no Syncing anytime soon.

Sendmail aliases error

2001-05-26 Thread Wayne Sitton
The other day My sendmail server's aliases stopped working.  When typing in
'newaliases' I get the following error

babylon5:/etc# newaliases
Cannot open hash database /etc/mail/aliases.db: Invalid argument
WARNING: cannot open alias database /etc/mail/aliases
Cannot create database for alias file /etc/mail/aliases
babylon5:/etc#

opening the aliases file, it looks normal.  I moved a working aliases.db
file from a different working server, and still had the same problem.  I
finnally, just decided to re-install sendmail.  I removed the sendmail
package from the server.  Then, manually removed the /etc/mail folder.  I
then re-installed sendmail, and after configuration, I get

Cannot open hash database /etc/mail/aliases.db: Invalid argument
WARNING: cannot open alias database /etc/mail/aliases
Cannot create database for alias file /etc/mail/aliases


What's the deal?

perl mods for slashcode

2001-05-27 Thread Wayne Sitton
I decided to give up on php-nuke since I cannot get apache to recognize
php4.

So, I've gone to trying to configure slashcode.  Except now I'm having
problems  loading certain modules from cpan.  I can't load Compress::Zlib or
XML::Parser it errors saying that it must be some kind of bogus file.  It
also complains that it cannot load some file because I need to load
Term::ReadKey, but when i try to install that I get an EOF error.  I am
thinking the problem must be in the server CPAN is pulling from.
How do I change that? Or, does anyone have another suggestion?

exim

I've installed Exim(which I've never used before)and it seems to be working
fine.  My question is, How do I add other domains for Exim to accept mail
for?  In the exim.conf after local_domains, it has the original 3
(localhost:mydomain.com:mail.mydomain.com), but when I add any other
domains, with colins in between, it stops accepting mail all together.

I had been using sendmail, but an aliases.db coruption made me change.
Although I re-installed sendmail it refused to work, therefore I had to get
a mail server up, and Exim worked fine.  But, I'm stuck on this problem.

Compile vs. Apt-get(was woody+php+php-nuke)

2001-05-29 Thread Wayne Sitton
I have a question reguarding the debian process.
I don't mind compiling packages on my own, but since I like using, and
keeping my system up to date, using apt/deselect, I don't want to get away
from that.
So, if I compile some of the packages on my own, will that be recognized by
apt/dselect?
In other words if I complie php4 manually, then later on I use dselect to
add a package that requires php4, will apt/dselect recognize that I already
have it installed. Then lets say php4 is upgraded, will I be able to use
apt/dselect to upgrade it even thouge the previous install was manually
compiled.

upgrade to sarge has sendmail rejecting mail

Yesterday I upgraded to sarge on my email server.  Now suddenly and
email sent to it gets sent back with

... while talking to zlabinc.com.:
>>> RCPT To:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
<<< 503 This mail server requires authentication. Please check your mail
client settings.
554 5.0.0 Service unavailable

Now my client settings have not changed, only the sendmail
server(upgrade).

And the funny thing is, this only happens to one domain, while there are
4 others that are having no problem, plus I don't even send out through
that server I send out through roadrunner, and none of my other email
accounts have that problem

And to add to the problem, when I try to check the email from that
account, it will not accept the password yet I can ftp and ssh into the

Where would be the config to look at for this, or how could I fix this?

spamassassin rules question

2005-08-29 Thread Wayne Sitton
I have been running spamassassin on my own server for quite a wile and
been very happy with it.  Recently I contracted with an ISP, and one of
the things I have been passed with was to take over their spamassassin
server.

Like mine, they were a debian install with the generic ruleset that
comes when installed with Debian, but their original sys admin updated
their rulesets on several occassions.  My question is, looking at my own
rulesets I noticed the all the ruleset filenames start with numbers such
as

10_misc.cf  20_dnsbl_tests.cf  20_html_tests.cf
20_ratware.cf25_hashcash.cf  30_text_fr.cf  60_whitelist.cf
user_prefs.template
20_anti_ratware.cf  20_drugs.cf20_meta_tests.cf
20_uri_tests.cf  25_spf.cf   30_text_nl.cf  65_debian.cf
20_body_tests.cf20_fake_helo_tests.cf  20_phrases.cf 23_bayes.cf
25_uribl.cf 30_text_pl.cf  languages
20_compensate.cf20_head_tests.cf   20_porn.cf
25_body_tests_es.cf  30_text_de.cf   50_scores.cf


But upon looking at the rulesets on their server and on
rulesemporium.com I noticed that most of the filenames start with 70 &
60...etc

SO, my question is, what do the numbers signify?  are they a level, or a
release number or ?

gaim/gtk themes

2005-08-29 Thread Wayne Sitton
I'm running etch,KDE, and Gaim.  Problem is the incomming messages
window, the text is too small to read.  I've changed the type of gtk
theme, and even increased the font size.  But it increases the font size
for everything but the incoming messages window.  does anyone know how
to increase the font size on the incoming messages.

I looked at Gaim's website and followed their direction on how to change
it, but once again it increased the size for everything but the incoming
message window.

Gaim and multiple ICQ accounts

2005-09-02 Thread Wayne Sitton
Hi all,  I'm running Debian Sid.  A weird thing happened the other day
after an update.  I have accounts with all the different IM protocols,
msn, yim, aim, gmail, icq, and have been running gaim just fine.  I have
3 different ICQ accounts on there an have not had a problem.  Had the
same running under Kopete for a while and itøs fine.  But the other day
after an update, Gaim is trying to add all the contacts under each of
the ICQ accounts to the other 2 accounts.  In other words sent out
requests to all contacts trying to add them to the other account so that
all 3 have the same contacts.

Iøv cancelecd the requests, Iøve deleted contacts, but the next time I
log on it does the same.

anyone know how to stop this and keep the 3 ICQ accounts seperate?
