[Devil-linux-develop] Message for ALL Linux Live CD developer

[KK C. <lin...@op...>]

Please forward this E-mail to ALL Live CD developer 

Hello Every LInux Live CD developer,
   
  First, please accept my wholehearted thanks to all Linux Live CD developer, your work greatly help Linux community and humanity as a whole--- ME, my company: Linuxlivecd.com especially grateful for works you have done. And now we would like to invite all the developer of Linux Live CD into a club and provide the website www.linuxlivecd.com/developer as a heaven for Linux Live CD developer. Linuxlivecd.com will strive to be the centre of Linux Live CD community so we can exchange and experiment on various different
idea, suggestions, response to different commentary and make decision collectively as a group. My company is very open regard on how this site to be done for best serving the need of Linux Live CD community.Please kindly gave me some advise regarding this.  
  About profit, Linuxlivecd.com intended to be first community model of business which sell ONLY GPLed stuff and distribute a percentage back to the developer community so Linux Live CD will continously improve as a result, part will be invested for basic infrastructure and part will (hopefully ;-p) paid the bill for me and a co-worker.(I
do the tech/PR side, he do the web side) Our company will take care of the dirty work of commercializing Linux Live CD.(including marketing, branding, PR and tech support) Linuxlivecd.com currently targetting the biggest market in the making: China(I am Chinese living in HK), which I can NOT imagine just how powerful Linux will be with the addition of many tens of million of users, and tens of
thousands of programmers. But again this is only a tentative plan subject to change by YOUR advise. Together we can conquer country by country, continent by continent and one day the whole Earth.
   As a developer you have the final say on deciding whether your want to sell your product, but please gain us a privilege to be the FIRST selling your product and be the FIRST to translate your distro into Chinese. And developer automatically gained unlimited membership for all the service this website provided(plus the developer website)
including but not limited to free forum/technical resource/space to sell and store GPLed distros or softwares (we don't charge for the transation)/survey/tools/user feedback/E-mail/website/ads space/Periodical review, idea and suggestion by me and other developers. We will also help you market your product if you agree to do so. But if you only like to develop, it is up to you. However,
everything is strictly under GPL and no single person "own"
any product or ideas. The number of feature will increase as we gain foothold on the market.  
   The goal of linuxlivecd.com is 1) Increase the popularity of Linux, 2.) Quicken the mass adaptation of Linux via Live CD; 3.)United a viable,financially self-substainable, reputable ,extremely creative and sensitive-to-user Linux Live CD community; 4.) Developing the world's biggest market for Open Source OS/software development (especially Southeastern Asia). I believe by helping each
other in this way we will both win.   
    We would ask you for the honour of migrating your Linux Live CD homepage in our company's website. (Certainly you can keep the original, I just ask for a presence in linuxlivecd.com) It will be available very soon. Let's work together toward for the sake of Linux! I am prepared to do the best I can to assist you, would you like to join Linux Live CD Movement?

Yes, that very much needed.

IMO, we also badly need a way to detect network cards, instead of making
the user input or select a module.  I'm fairly stuck there.

I started looking at lxconfig a little.

The first problem I noticed is lxconfig doesn't seem to exist on the CD,
it appears to be only in the development system.  What's the best way to
solve that?  Make it a package?

I'm also having problems finding documentation on lxdialog.  Do you know
of a good reference somewhere?

I see Redhat has a package called "dialog" which lxdialog is based on. 
The "dialog" package _seems_ to have more options than lxdialog (and
some documentation too :)  However, I don't see where "dialog" has a
help system.  Do you know the differences between the two?

Re: [Devil-linux-develop] Setup script.

[Heiko Z. <hz...@pr...>]

Hey,

I took a quick look yesterday and the first thing I noticed is that we =
need
a help system.

Doesn't need to be much and you can "steel" it from "make menuconfig",
which is stolen from the Linux kernel  config. ;-)
I think it would be best to just show this help (only a brief explanati=
on)
above the parameter before the user enters something.

I didn't like that the user has to enter yes or no, I would suggest tha=
t
you let him switch between those values with i.e. SPACE .

OK have to go back to work now....

[Devil-linux-develop] Setup script.

[Bruce S. <bw...@ar...>]

I've uploaded my first copy of a DL setup script for testing.

ftp://ftp.devil-linux.org/pub/devel/testing/scripts/setupscript-20030604.tgz

I'd appreciate it if people would download it, untar it in an _empty_
directory, run & play with "./setuputil", and comment back.

Selections "1, 2, and 3" only modify test files in your local directory,
so you don't have to worry about it screwing up your running system.

Selections "p" and "s", actually run "passwd", and "save-config", so be
careful with those.

You can test this script on other systems (does not have to be DL), and
you don't need to be root to run the script for testing.

I'm not totally happy with it yet, but I'm kind of stuck in a couple
places, so I'd like to hear improvement ideas from others.

Thanks in advance,  Bruce.

OK, after some more investigation, I'm not convinced it's NOT a bug that
we need to worry about with DL.

"vi" works fine from a virtual console (as the "TERM=linux" implies).

I'm only seeing the problem when I slogin from a gnome-terminal window.
I tested "vi" from a regular "xterm" window, and it works there too.

It's nothing we need to worry about.  Sorry!

The problem is when I move around on the screen and insert characters, I
see the actual control sequence displayed.  Looks like:

Could be.

Are there any other curses based editors or programs available on DL?
Pico or something like?  That might be a good test.

Crap.
What is the exact problem? I'm not familiar with vi, so you probably 
have to write me down the 'secret vi key combinations'. ;-)
Which SSH client do you use?

When I recall it correctly, DL 0.5 still use the Busybox vi, so the 
problem could also be in the vim package.

[Devil-linux-develop] [fmII] procps 3.1.9 released (Default branch)

[<no...@fr...>]

This email is to inform you about the release of version '3.1.9' of
'procps' through freshmeat.net. All URLs and other useful information can
be found at

    http://freshmeat.net/projects/procps/

The changes in this release are as follows:
This release fixes memory usage reporting when gcc 3.x is used on
IA-64 and Alpha. Other 64-bit platforms may have be affected.
Documentation has improved a bit, and vmstat now lets you choose
display units.   

Project description:
procps is a package of utilities which includes ps, vmstat, top, w,
skill, snice, pgrep, pkill, free, sysctl, pmap, uptime, and kill.
These utilities report what is running, who is logged in, how long
the system has been running, and what is using up memory. They can be

I'll be happy to just have the config on USB stick.

But I bought one little stick for the config, and one big stick for the
whole thing.  I can do both.   :-)

I would recommend checking for USB first.  Most computers have a floppy
drive, and it will waste too much time to grind the floppy before
looking for the USB device.

Also, you can probably test if a USB stick exists in /proc somehow.

An optional parameter on save-config so we can specify, would be good.
