One problem you may run into with mplayer, is DL doesn't have any X
libraries.  I don't know if it's possible to build mplayer without
X11.

You can (fairly) easily add software to DL.
Take a look at our documentation on the website on how to compile your own
version, that's where you'll have to start. Then you'll have to fight your
way through figuring out how we do things and then add your own stuff.
Please sign up on the developer mailinglist if you have any questions
related to building/customizing DL.

Hello colleagues,

I have tried to make a present for myself and other DL fans by XMas (later by
NY) with massive features update for 1.3... It looks like I'll do it  only after
my vacation (in a week). What I've made already:
- kernel 2.6.27.x (2.6.27.10) because it was announced as a LTS kernel.
- update of a couple tens of packages
- emphasis on NAS/SAN features - new network block device (iSCSI and DST), new
network file system (a-la pNFS) - unfortunately without init files yet.
- a few build system cleanups in order to handle dependencies more correctly
- workaround for the mysterious bug with coping DL image to RAM (I guess it's
something with rounding of an allocated size calculation).
- etc

Stay tuned!

Happy New Year!

trying for weeks to get a few program updates in 1.3, but it's progressing

It's been awful quiet on this list recently.  To see if it's still working I

thought I'd suggest the inclusion into DL of a tool that I've just
discovered.

There's a program called multitail 
(http://www.vanheusden.com/multitail/index.html) that allows you to tail
more 
than one file (e.g. logfiles) at once either into separate ncurses 'windows'
or 
merge into one window.  Can also colourise and other tricks.  Looks useful
to me.

Anyway Happy New Year to all DLers.

Hmmm. Maybe there is an issue creating LVM2 volume groups (pvcreate with 
-M2 switch) on DL 1.2, although I don't see why? It works for me on DL 
1.3. But LVM1 volume groups (i.e. pvcreate without the -M2 switch) 
definitely should work on DL1.2, because that was my original setup (and 
the volume group on my production DL server is still LVM1 in fact).

Or perhaps your difficulties with LVM and reiserfs will just have to 
remain one of life's hidden mysteries.

Re: [Devil-Linux-discuss] Raid0 setup?

[Lincoln J. <lin...@gm...>]

For some reason when I was creating the volume, it would not let me use the
-M2 switch. I can't remember the exact error it gave me, but I just dropped
it hoping it wouldn't be an issue. That's probably why reiserfs wouldn't
work for me.

I also had the same problem as before, where my keyboard would not input
anything to the console until I rebooted once with a mouse added to the
system. This is with a different keyboard, the rest of the setup is the
same. At least I knew how to fix it... not that it was really an issue, I
could putty into the system just fine.

If anyone is interested, I will write up a bit of a walkthrough on how to
install and configure VLC so you can use your server as a media box as well.
Once I get it working.

Re: [Devil-Linux-discuss] Raid0 setup?

[Dominic <dl...@ed...>]

Pleased to hear you got it all working! I am puzzled by the problem you 
encountered trying to use reiserfs, I just tested this and it worked 
fine for me (with LVM2-format volume group [i.e. -M2 switch on pvcreate 
line], as I suggest).

Re: [Devil-Linux-discuss] Raid0 setup?

[Lincoln J. <lin...@gm...>]

Thanks for all the help... the only change I had to make was when I was
setting up the logical volumes I had to change

mkfs.reiserfs /dev/devil-linux/home

to

mke2fs -j /dev/devil-linux/home

because for some reason it did not want to mount the /home directory
otherwise.

Everything is now running smoothly, all my boxes talk to each other without
fighting.

The next project is to set up VLC and the proper drivers for my video card
so I can play movies directly on my tv with s-video out.

I'm just wondering if setting up Raid0 is the same process as the Raid1
setup mentioned at http://www.edendevelopments.co.uk/dlsetup or if I would
need to do anything different?

Re: [Devil-Linux-discuss] Trouble with vsftpd

[Jacob S. <dev...@js...>]

Hi,

 

I as you do now mostly use scp :)

 

However if I remember correctly with vsftp I think you need to add the user
to the file /etc/vsftpd.users or set it as disabled.

The file is just a username per line.

I remember disabling the chroot also for systems with just a admin user in
users file.

 

Still scp is probably a better choice in most cases.

 

Kind regards

Jacob

[Devil-Linux-discuss] Fwd: Some questions...

[warptrosse <war...@gm...>]

Hi, following the *Heiko´s* suggestion.... I´m trying to compile *
devil-linux* sources and then I will procede to add some new software which
I need for my project....

I follow http://www.devil-linux.org/documentation/1.2.x/ch03.html guide....
and some issues arose..... so, I will try to explain what I want to do and
what problems I found...

*ISSUE:*
I need to have *devil-linux* on a hard disk in order to install new software
and then test it "on fly". This hard disk will be in a virtual machine (*
VM-DL_ROUTER*), to perform tests which involves clients and servers (some
virtual machines)...

So... I have a virtual machine which works as a router... and some others
virtual machines which produce trafic between those... through *VM-DL_ROUTER
*.



*POSIBLE SOLUTION:*
As I saw bebore, I´m trying to compile *devil-linux* sources and add new
software in the way that is explained in ->
http://www.devil-linux.org/documentation/1.2.x/ch03s04.html#d0e1879.....
After the necessary software has been added, I will procede to compile
devil-linux.... then I will have a new devil-linux inside dist folder.....
and I will use it to test the new software...



*QUESTIONS:*
1) Can I put the content of dist folder in a hard-disk and after added grub,
boot devil-linux?
2) There is another way to do this?



*PROBLEMS:*
At compiling time I found the following problem:

[Devil-Linux-discuss] devil-linux-1.3.6-2008-10-28-i686

[Peter J. <P.J...@vi...>]

I upgrade your firewall's with devil-linux-1.3.6-2008-10-28-i686. Here
are some remark:
 
- Thanks for upgrading pppd it is working again.
Because of the change to udev /dev/ppp is not created and ppp_generic is
not loaded. I have edit /etc/init.d/pptpd to load ppp_generic. But this
is not a ideal solution (i work for our  setup).
 
- Thanks for racoon update. The logs are nice and quiet.
Because directory /var/racoon is missing so there for i have added '[ -d
/var/racoon ] || mkdir /var/racoon' to /etc/init.d/ipsec-tools
 
Thanks for the good work.

Pleased to hear you got it sorted. The mouse (absence of) is not the 
culprit. Perhaps your media buttons upset DL?

If you can't get your Samba fileserver working after looking through my 
help page, which was written by a Linux newbie (me) for Linux newbies, 
let us know and I, or others here better qualified, will try to help. I 
would also welcome any improvements/corrections to my text.

Thanks for your suggestions... I managed to fix the problem, but I will
record the issues in more detail here in case anyone has the same problem.

I was unable to type anything once the login prompt came up, could not log
in. I could log in through SSH using putty. The keyboard would work fine
until the moment it did the system-up beeps. I know this because it would
display ^] characters if I held down the escape key, but would stop once the
beeps started. It was not a keyboard issue (as far as I could tell, it
worked fine until the login prompt appeared). The keyboard is a standard
PS/2 Dell keyboard with media buttons on the top.

For some reason, once I plugged in a mouse to the system, everything worked
fine.

Linux Kernel 2.4.36.6
Devil-Linux V1.2.15-i686-SMP

Now I just need to figure out why DL isn't playing nice with my windows
boxes.

This is my first time using a linux setup, so I expect that I will be
posting questions/problems here a fair bit over the coming week or so.

Re: [Devil-Linux-discuss] Keyboard disables after system-up noises?

[Dom <dl...@ed...>]

Lincoln:

Just to help us understand, at what point do you get this problem? Can 
you type 'root' at the login prompt? Can you get logged in?

Could it be a physical problem with your keyboard? Do you have another 
keyboard you could try? Is it a standard keyboard and/or did you set the 
keyboard type correctly in DL Setup? Is the keyboard plugged in 
correctly? :-) Is it USB keyboard? I have never tried USB keyboard with 
DL, I guess it should work fine but if you have PS/2 keyboard it would 
be worth trying that...

Alternatively, can you login remotely? If you chose to include SSHD in 
Setup/Services, and set up your ethernet card correctly, you should be 
able to log in remotely over a network - you would have to find out the 
ip address, your router's configuration web page can probably help with 
this.

[Devil-Linux-discuss] Keyboard disables after system-up noises?

[Lincoln J. <lin...@gm...>]

I've done a search through the archives, but haven't been able to find
anything to help me with this...

I'm setting up a new install of DL to run as a file server at home, and
after running through the initial config/reboot, the computer has decided to
no longer recognize any keyboard inputs, but only after the system-up beeps.

It will accept keyboard input up until the second that it starts the beeps,
then it stops. It just stays at the login: prompt.

I don't know what to do here... please help?

Thank you in advance.

Is anybody using it successfully with 1.2.15 ?

I agree, this should go into at least the INPUT one.
If we want to prevent any leaking, then we should add it to FORWARD  
and OUTPUT also.

Opinions ?
