  4. dbus gone after online upgrade, 2008.0 to 2009.0

    in Installing Mandriva

    Posted

    I don't understand why they aren't being upgraded, because I certainly didn't have that many on my 2009.0 install

    Well, I think it has something to do with the fact that not all media sources are automatically updated. For example, the package list of the "main" media source does not normally need to be updated, as changes are made in "main_updates". There is a way to update the package list from this part of the repository, but it was not mentioned in the upgrade instructions at the Wiki (at least not that I saw), and I didn't think to do it until today.

     

    In the Software Manager I used the Update Media function, Select all, and in that way I updated all media. After that I used "urpmi --auto --auto-select --replacefiles" and saw that many more 2009.0 programs were added. I then edited my previous post to reflect current package status.

     

    Unfortunately dbus is still not recognizing my USB drives. I am still investigating, but may soon do a fresh install of 2009.0 from CD.

Update importance   : security
Reason for update   :
The D-Bus library did not correctly validate certain corrupted
signatures which could cause a crash of applications linked against
the D-Bus library if a local user were to send a specially crafted
D-Bus request (CVE-2008-3834).

The updated packages have been patched to prevent this issue.

    I had already done the "urpmi.removemedia -a" command and added the 2009.0 repositories before starting the upgrade. I used the following commands to add the new repositories.

     

    urpmi.addmedia --update plf-free http://plf.dcc.fc.up.pt/mandriva/2009.0/free/release/binary/i586/ with media_info/hdlist.cz

urpmi.addmedia --update contrib_updates http://spout.ussg.indiana.edu/linux/mandrake/official/2009.0/i586/media/contrib/updates with media_info/hdlist.cz

    At preset, "urpmi --auto-select" says: "Packages are up to date".

  7. Kima gone after upgrade from 2008.0 to 2009.0

    I upgraded from 2008.0 to 2009.0 using the procedure given here. All went well at first, but when I rebooted into the new 2009.0 installation, kima was gone from the Panel. I tried the Add Aplet to Panel' function but Kima does not appear there. Rpmdrake does however show that kima is installed. I am still using KDE 3.5.10. Does the new Kima require KDE 4?

  8. dbus gone after online upgrade, 2008.0 to 2009.0

    Posted

    I upgraded from 2008.0 to 2009.0 using the procedure given here. All went well at first, but when I booted into the new 2009.0 installation my USB drives are not recognized. I think this has something to do with dbus. From within Rpmdrake I see the following packages show the 'red dot with horizontal bar' error icon in the Status column.

     

    dbus

    libdbus-1_3

    libdbus-glib-1_2

     

    What could be the problem with dbus?

    The Trendnet TV-IP100 is an Ethernet IP camera. I suspect the problem is related to the following error messages which I see repeated in the zmwatch.log file.

     

    11/13/08 19:33:05.312900 zmwatch[6794].ERR [Can't get shared memory id '7a6d0002', 2: No such file or directory]

    I wonder if ZoneMinder is in Mandriva's 2009.0 repo? I didn't find it in the 2008.0 repo, not sure how to look in the 2009.0 repo as I'm still using 2008.0. How do I make a package request to the Mandriva package makers?

    Would you know which piece of software is responsible for sending ZoneMinder's control packets to the network camera? I configured ZoneMinder for my Trendnet TV-IP100 network camera, but get no image from the camera because no ZoneMinder packets are reaching the camera or appearing on the LAN.

    Yes, the zm directory is populated with ZoneMinder files.

    There is a file /var/www/html/zm/index.php, it's softlinked to zm.php in the same directory. I can load http://127.0.0.1/zm/index.php into a Firefox window, it displays as php code.

    I am using Mandriva 2008.0. After following the instructions for installation of ZoneMinder (here), Zoneminder failed to run. The installation process seemed to complete successfully, but after opening my web browser to http://127.0.0.1/zm I got a 403 error. Can this be fixed or should I give up and try the ZoneMinder live CD?

     

    Because the installation took several hours, I'm wondering if ZoneMinder will ever be added to the Mandriva repos? What is the package request procedure?

  17. WPA and WPA2 in 2009.0

    in Cooker

    Posted

    I am still using 2008.0 and have had difficulty connecting to my WiFi router using WPA and my Orinoco Gold WiFi card. I read somewhere that the issue was not fixed in 2008.1, so I didn't upgrade. Does anyone know if we will be able to configure WPA and WPA2 encryption easily in 2009.0?

  18. Which Linux best for 200MHz laptop?

    in Other Linux and Unix Distributions

    Posted

    Thanks to all those who replied. I did some reading over at http://distrowatch.com/ and found three small distros that seem as if they will do nicely. The three are Damn Small, Puppy, and TinyMe. I have not tried any of them yet. Puppy looks like the one I'll try first because of the way it runs from RAM. I am not sure if the others can easily be made to runs from RAM, but the descriptions for Puppy includes this; "Puppy boots into a 64MB ramdisk, and that's it, the whole caboodle runs in RAM". If that works well I won't need the hard disk.

  23. Good rsync match between 2008.1 RC2 and Final Ver.

    in Tips and Tricks

    Posted

    If you already have 2008.1 RC2 (mandriva-linux-2008-spring-rc2-one-KDE-int-cdrom-i586.iso)

    and you want the official released version (mandriva-linux-one-2008-spring-KDE-int-cdrom-i586.iso)

    you can save time and bytes by using rsync. Open a command console in the directory of your RC2 iso file and rename it to the same name as the 2008.1 Final, or make a copy. I made a hard linked copy like this:

    ln mandriva-linux-2008-spring-rc2-one-KDE-int-cdrom-i586.iso mandriva-linux-one-2008-spring-KDE-int-cdrom-i586.iso

    Issue the following command:

    rsync -aP distrib-coffee.ipsl.jussieu.fr::pub/linux/MandrivaLinux/official/iso/2008.1/mandriva-linux-one-2008-spring-KDE-int-cdrom-i586.iso ./

    You will then see:

    receiving file list ...
1 file to consider
mandriva-linux-one-2008-spring-KDE-int-cdrom-i586.iso
  730503168 100%  147.75kB/s	1:20:28 (xfer#1, to-check=0/1)

sent 189082 bytes  received 271055291 bytes  48285.60 bytes/sec
total size is 730503168  speedup is 2.69

    As you can see, I only downloaded 271055291 bytes, that's 37.1% of the file, and yet I got the whole 2008.1 iso file which is a 730503168 byte file.

     

    This method may also work with other ISOs that have much in common.

  24. Trying to use WPA with Orinoco Gold WiFi card

    in Hardware

    Posted · Edited by boatman9

    Mandriva overlooked WPA options in the 2008.0 drakconnect WiFi scripts except for WPA-PSK

    About the WPA drakconnect WiFi scripts you mentioned, are these scripts used only during WPA configuration or are they used whenever connecting with WPA? Do we have the same issue with WPA2 scripts?

     

    If the WPA-PSK scripts are in 2008.0, then I'm not sure why I had a problem trying to set up WPA-PSK mode with my Orinoco and Airlink cards.

  25. Trying to use WPA with Orinoco Gold WiFi card

    in Hardware

    Posted

    I got 2008.1 RC2 and ran it from CD in order to do some tests. I was able to make two WiFi cards work in unencrypted mode, and also WEP, but WPA and WAP2 modes do not work on 2008.1 RC2, at least not running from CD. The two cards I used are Orinoco Gold and Airlink AWLC3025. I have been reading past posts and I see where someone running 2007 was able to use WPA, but so far no one has actually come out and said "yes, I'm using 2008 with WPA". So after many hours spent I am going to make the pronouncement that WPA and WPA2 do not work in 2008.0 and 2008.1. Hopefully someone will prove me wrong about that!
