#1 Re: News & Announcements » Remove debian-multimedia.org repository » Yesterday 08:09:55

Then I guess the current situation is:
[1] Use deb.multimedia.org if you want acroread, handbrake, ... from a repo.
This repo is managed by the former debian.multimedia.org owner that did not want to abide to the debian rules but removed the word 'debian' from his site name (changed it to deb for fear of being sued by Debian?).
[2] Then the owner of the multimedia.org domain sold the debian branch to the Russians? And they are not afraid of being sued by Debian.
All conjecture.

IIRC since wheezy went  stable all multimedia related packages are in the standard repo's.

The short version: bumblebee allows you to run complex graphical operations on the discrete Nvidia card which then communicates the result to the integrated intel gfx card which shows the result on your screen.

#4 Re: Tips, Tricks & Scripts » Booting without an initramfs » 2013-06-17 08:47:59

There is still a big difference - in terms of time required - between recompiling a kernel module from source and recompiling an entire kernel.
On my system there is. Not on yours?  smile

#5 Re: Tips, Tricks & Scripts » Booting without an initramfs » 2013-06-16 14:50:25

Cons: driver(s) with bug(s) requires kernel recompile(s).

Remove the unnecessary partitions from your /etc/fstab file?

Check your network configuration.
You are using NetworkManager, right?
Right-click on network icon, select configure network connection, select your connection, click 'Edit', click IPv4. Do you have DHCP(automatic)?

It is NetworkManager that changes your resolv.conf by adding your provider's name server(s).

Put the commands in

/etc/rc.local

before the 'exit 0' line.
They will then be automatically executed at every boot.

#14 Re: Help & Support (Testing/Unstable) » can't install thunar 1.6.2 on latest crunchbang waldorf » 2013-06-14 15:10:47

OK.
That way you get new updates to the thunar package automatically.
Better than my suggestion.  smile

#16 Re: Help & Support (Testing/Unstable) » can't install thunar 1.6.2 on latest crunchbang waldorf » 2013-06-14 13:48:04

The thunar package comes from the 'waldorf' repo, which has the highest priority.
To install a newer version you have to:
1. Temporarily lower the waldorf priority to that of wheezy/sid/experimental [pick one]
2. run apt-get update
3. upgrade the thunar package to the version in w/s/e

sudo apt-get install -t wheezy thunar

4. Put the thunar package on hold to prevent downgrade.

echo 'thunar hold' | sudo dpkg --set-selections

5. Raise the priority for the waldorf repo to what it was originally.
6. run apt-get update again

That should do it.

WARNING:

This will prevent the installation of a newer version of thunar.
If you want that, you will have to repeat the whole shebang.

It is falling back from using ehci_hcd to uhci_hcd and then things work, but at a lower speed than the device is capable of.

Try the instructions I mentioned in my previous post. They disable ehci_hcd and force an immediate fallback to uhci so that the system does not go through all the testing with ehci before falling back.
The end result is the same, but you won't fill your logs with all those ehci messages.

Post output of the 'lshw' command.
IIRC it is not installed by default. Install package 'lshw' first.

And do post between [ code ] tags please.  smile

Clearly something is wrong there.
Repeadted messages

where the device number is augmented by 1 after each try.

Is this an USB-2 or USB-3 port?
Try using other ports. Perhaps you have a combination of USB-2 and USB-3 ports.

If it does not work on any port, try instructions from this  post

#19 Re: Help & Support (Stable) » Getting a non-Wacom graphics tablet to work on Crunchbang » 2013-06-14 09:24:58

Hi Monica,

Your device is rather new, so I would try to install the latest kernel available from sid:
Use this thread as a guideline. Replace 'experimental' by 'sid'.

Don't forget to disable the sid repo after installing and testing the new kernel.

#20 Re: Help & Support (Testing/Unstable) » share gpg keys » 2013-06-13 15:50:31

Yes. That is how things work.
Exchange of publick keys can be done via e-mail or by posting the public key on a key server where everyone interested can get it.

#21 Re: Help & Support (Stable) » External HD now only lists files on Windows » 2013-06-13 15:47:46

@OP: are you tracking the debian wheezy repo?
All I can say is that things work OK for me, but I am tracking sid.

I do have a waldorf installation too. Will test things there and let you know.

#24 Re: Help & Support (Stable) » External HD now only lists files on Windows » 2013-06-13 13:56:11

Post output of commands

lsblk
mount

please, to see your block devices and mount options...

#25 Re: Help & Support (Stable) » External HD now only lists files on Windows » 2013-06-13 13:24:59

Maybe you are only having problems with the spaces in the mountpoint?
Try this from a trminal window:

ls /media/FreeAgent\ GoFlex\ Drive

'escaping' the spaces with a backslash.
