I have installed Jessie on my Dell Inspiron 7340 and the touchpad works fine with xserver-xorg-input-synaptics. However, when the system wakes up from hibernation or standby , the touchpad doesn't react.

Currently my display is set to 1280x960 at 60Hz, but my monitor supports 1920x1080, which is what I would like to have.

My laptop has a some multimedia keys for quick access. They are causing a common issue with many HP laptops easily found on the Internet ( volume keeps turning up and down). Apparently the ultimate solution is to simply disable this buttons. On the next page, under the title "Multimedia Keys" it is explained how this QuickPlay buttons had to be enabled to work in Etch. https://wiki.debian.org/InstallingDebia ... 568se/etch Now, I have installed Jessie, and I do not know if thew were automatically installed or not. But they are causing a very annoying problem. I want to simply disable these "Multimedia keys" so they do not produce any input. I am hoping somebody can tell me how. Thanks for taking the time to read my post. | Ok, this is quite easy to attain. With KDE 4 the keyboard model can be selected clicking on System Settings > Input Devices > Keyboard > Hardware > Keyboard Model. With GNOME 3 go to System Settings > Keyboard > Shortcuts > Sound and Multimedia, and there, set "volume up" key combination to "disable". Do the same with "volume down" and "sound mute". With this the annoying problem is gone while using GNOME. I could find how to disable these multimedia keys using KDE. They don't show in System Settings > Shortcuts. I am also writting a page on installing Jessie on this laptop. (https://wiki.debian.org/InstallingDebia ... 20dv6594es) |
i have external hard drive which will be used for windows and i have to format it. i tried with disk utility program but it tells me all the time device is busy. in terminal its too complicated for me. is there easier solution?? | Make sure it is unmounted first - your DE probably mounts it for you when you plug it in. |
Hi, I use ext3 on my SSD (Samsung 840 pro), it's some months old and I wanted to manually trim it for the first time. I'm on EXT3 using kernel 3.11.2. It supports TRIM: Code: Select allhdparm -I /dev/sda | grep -i TRIM * Data Set Management TRIM supported (limit 8 blocks) * Deterministic read ZEROs after TRIM I created a file Code: Select alldd if=/dev/urandom of=tempfile count=100 bs=512k oflag=direct and noted the first sector Code: Select allsudo hdparm --fibmap tempfile I then deleted it, sync'd and issued fstrim. I now expected Code: Select allhdparm --read-sector to show all zeroes, but that is not the case. Any idea why fstrim didn't tell the SSD to TRIM these sectors? | Simple answer: Not only your hardware, but also your software has to support TRIM. ext3 doesn't. Use a more modern filesystem, like ext4, JFS or BTRFS. |
I'm attempting to get 7.7 to work properly on my new box. One of the issues is that I ordered a last-gen card, but when it was out-of-stock, the builders kindly swapped in a brand new GTX 970 at no cost. That was nice, but Nouveau does not understand it and when I tried the proprietary driver (per the Nvidia page on the Debian wiki), I found that they do not support the 970, nor does the supposedly newer driver in backport. So I'm stuck in fallback mode with Gnome 3... and no Blender So, my question is... is it smart to just wait until the Debian repo's have an updated driver that supports the card? Or is it worth it to try to install the driver package available from the Nvidia website? (I've never attempted such a thing, so expect me to come screaming back for help on such a thing ) Thanks. | The driver you need is currently in experimental Code: Select all Version table: 343.22-2 0 650 http://debian.mirror.ac.za/debian/ experimental/non-free amd64 Packages 650 http://free.hands.com/debian/ experimental/non-free amd64 Packages you could enable and then simulate a run to see what packages it would want to pull in. although i am a proponent of deb solutions, in this instance i think trying the nvidia driver may actually be safer as you can just uninstall it without the risk of other files being pulled in. |
Hello everybody! I've debian jessie 64 and mate d.e. My problem is when i click on shutdown the pc arrive to final black screen and pc write me: "power off".

Still dealing with the aftermath of The Wrath of Thor. Sound on new board - RealTek ALC892 - is inconsistent. Works with some apps but not others. I downloaded the latest drivers from the RealTek site and am trying to install them using Soul Singin's excellent tut. I have done this before but not often. Mostly I'm flying pretty blind and am a lousy typist to boot. Anyway, I got to dh_make and was asked this question: Code: Select allType of package: single binary, indep binary, multiple binary, library, kernel module, kernel patch? Have no idea how to answer that. I want to be able to get rid of it easily if it makes things worse and having it as a deb would be best. But perhaps I should just do a checkinstall? This thread on the Mint forum has some ideas but don't know if they'll work on wheezy. My head hurts . . . | Some apps and not the others sounds like ALSA is not defining a default sound card. There's ways to mess around with defining a default card, which Flash is trying to find, but installing pulseaudio and pavucontrol, then rebooting, seems to also fix the issues automagically. Otherwise, the drivers that Realtek provides are just copies of the ALSA drivers included in the kernel. Most of the time, people get a new kernel to upgrade the drivers. |
Hi, A couple of days ago I followed a guide online in order to install Adobe Reader and this guide recommended a specific package that needed the jessie repository, I added it (unaware the jessie was the name of the new distribution on testing) and so I found myself upgrading to Jessie, which is fine since is working quite alright, but since then I can't sent any document to my wi-fi printer. I had no problem with Wheezy, I installed two printers: one connected to the usb interface and the other one to the wifi (but is actually the same). With Jessie when I try to print something and select the wi-fi one nothing happens. If i try to add a new one I can't since debian doesn't find it and I can't even delete the old "malfunctioning" one. Any ideas? | I managed to fix it! The problem seemed to be connected somehow with the graphic interface since I couldn't delete or add the printer there but when I did it in CUPS it worked! I also had to add myself to lpdamin! |

Hey! I have installed Debian Wheezy on my laptop today, which went relativly smoothly. The only problem that is left (for now) is that my wireless lan disconnects 1-2 times every 30 minutes, just to reconnect a few seconds later. Obviously that is very annoying, especially when watching streams on twitch, videos on youtube and so on. A thread I found on google suggested to use the command dmesg right after my wireless lan connection drops. So I waited for the next disconnect, issued the command and got the following output: Code: Select allwlan0: deauthenticated from 00:1f:3f:d4:25:6a (Reason: 14) wlan0: deauthenticating from 00:1f:3f:d4:25:6a by local choice (reason=14) I wondered what that reason code meant and found this website, which states that the code 14 stands for: Message integrity code (MIC) failure Sadly, I do not know what this means and I have not found something which helped me out. I hope someone here can help me. My wireless lan card ist the Atheros AR9462 (rev 01), which uses the ath9k driver. If you need any other information do not hesitate to ask. Best regards | Thanks for your fast reply! I have rebooted my router and my laptop, but already had another disconnect. So that did not really help. I have once again used dmesg and got another interesting output, which might help to figure out what the problem is. I am not quite sure if that is a new output or if I simply missed it the first time.

Hi guys! So as some may know school is in just over a week now. I decided over the summer I didn't want windows on this laptop and would switch it over to Debian. I did so however I encountered a problem I have never had with any of my other Debian based computers. It seems that wlan just doesn't exist! When I pull down the network manager in gnome3 it just says wired but no wireless. I have tried fiddling with different files that people told me to on other parts of the net however this did nothing or made things worse so I restored them back to normal. Thanks in advance guys. I do need to get this working for school! | Hello Pengui500, welcome to Debian What is the output of: Code: Select alllspci -knn|grep -iA3 net |
Hi, Im new to debian and I have an issue with getting sound out of my gfx card (gt 220). I have installed the nvidia drivers, switched s/pdif on, alsa mixer and pulse audio are installed, I have disabled the audio and video chipset on my board. I really dont see what more I can do. It worked once after I was trying a few video settings in left 4 dead 2 (suddenly the whole OS and every programs had sound) but it was gone after a restart, im still trying to reproduce this but I didnt manage it yet. Im using wheezy, its the first time I tried to use hdmi on linux so I dont know if it would have happened on other distros. The sound works on windows, so it doesnt seem to me that the issue comes from faulty hardware. Edit: Fixed, I had to test a few different outputs in the pulse audio GUI. | Have you tried using pavucontrol? It allows for a more fine-grained control of the audio hardware than the standard controls. |
After a recent update, my Netbook's wifi began to degrade. Whether this was due to the upgrade I'm not sure, but I need help fixing it. The problem: The wifi will allow up to 1.5Mib of data to be dowloaded before stopping. Despite this, I can still access the router from my browser and make changes (ie restart the router, change security, etc). But I can't go anywhere beyond the router. Troubleshooting so far: * It is not the ethernet controller. Netbook internet access works fine when an ethernet cable is plugged in. * It is not the router or its wifi. My desktop works fine connected to the router, while other laptops/phones/tablets work fine using Wifi. * It is not user-dependent. I created additional user for my netbook. New user has same wifi problems * It is not dependent on desktop environment. I use Xfce as my default. Logging in under Gnome or LXDE does not fix the problem. * It is not browser dependent. I use Chromium, Torbrowser and Iceweasel often, and all three fail to access the internet. The problem appears to be with the netbook's wifi. It obviously works well enough to download the first 1.5 Mibs or so but after that it stops. There's either a software problem which is stopping anything past 1.5Mibs being downloaded, or else the wifi hardware is physically damaged somehow. My netbook is a HP Mini 210 Netbook.

My external hard drive (about 2 years old) won't mount. It wouldn't mount on Windows either. Other external hard drives (sdb1) mount perfectly. I am wondering is there a Linux way of getting the hard drive to work again? The disc spins up so it's not a mechanical failure.

Hi, my microphone in skype is crackling on Debian Wheezy stable 7.5 It is OK on Windows so it is obviously not the hardware to blame. I have tried already all the options I could find regarding this on the internet, by changing in /etc/pulse/daemon.conf: Code: Select all resample-method = speex-float-10 OR Code: Select all resample-method = speex-float-1 My output was also crackling but I solved it by changing: in /etc/pulse/daemon.conf: Code: Select all default-sample-rate = 48000 flat-volumes = no in /etc/pulse/default.pa: Code: Select allload-module module-udev-detect tsched=0 I also tried starting skype with Code: Select all PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC=30 skype Without any success. Now the output is perfect, but the microphone in skype (haven't tested it elsewhere) is crackling. I have run out of ideas. Any help is highly appreciated. | I tried to record a test record in the default program for recording and it is again crackling, so it is not particularly skype to blame. |
I'm having a devil of a time trying to set up printing with 3 network printers: an HP Laserjet P4014n, an HP Laserjet 5200tn, and an HP Officejet Pro 8500 a909a. The three printers are connected directly to the office intranet and have their own ip addresses. The system I'm trying to configure is running Wheezy, and HPLIP and Cups are both installed. I have confirmed (from http://hplipopensource.com) that all printers are supported. First, running "hp-setup -i" (hplip-gui is not installed -- I do not wish to pull in half of KDE simply to configure printing), the program only finds the 2 laserjets. Adding one of them creates a printer in CUPS with an "hp:/net/<printer name>" connection. Attempting to printing a test page through CUPS fails with message "/usr/lib/cups/backend/hp failed". Interestingly enough, running "hp-probe -bnet" finds all three printers. However, running "hp-makeuri" with each printer's ip address fails with "error: Device not found". Hmmm, so HPLIP can apparently go from seeing everything to seeing nothing. Very helpful. Moving to the CUPs browser interface, clicking "Find New Printers" under the "Administration" tab also only shows the 2 laserjets, although each is listed three times(!). The only difference that I can see among the three versions of each printer is in the connection uri: dnssd://<printer name>._printer._tcp.local/ dnssd://<printer name>._pdl-datastream._tcp.local/ dnssd://<printer name>._ipp._tcp.local/ Adding any one of them seems to work, although I do not understand why there are three of them (presumably different protocols, though what they are and the differences between them are, I don't know). Logging into the officejet control panel and browsing at its network configuration, I see mDNS, SNMP, and WINS are disabled, although SLP is enabled. Looking in '/etc/cups/cupsd.conf', I see 'BrowseLocalProtocols' is set to only CUPS and DNSSD, so I add SLP and restart CUPS. No change; the officejet still doesn't show. I go back into the officejet control panel and enable mDNS (which, if I understand correctly, is essentially the same as DNSSD). Nothing; the officejet still doesn't show. So what's going on here? Why can't I get the officejet to show up? I generally find setting things up in Linux, while requiring one to roll up one's sleeves and understand what's going on, to be relatively straight forward and sensible, but this is all very frustrating and opaque. Here's hoping someone can help me sort this out. | Take a looking at: SystemPrinting - Debian Wiki : http://wiki.debian.org/SystemPrinting HpAllInOne - Community Ubuntu Documentation : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HpAllInOne Might just be easier to use hp-setup, you can always remove it after everything is working.

Hadn't used the Pi for a few months but have found a good specific use for it with Raspbian now - it's now an in my case conveniently non-portable word processor - and have been re-familiarising myself today. I'm sure I used a tiny four or five line file to tidy up the font rendering. It was either .Xdefaults or .Xresources (not font.conf or anything similar which only does half the job), and this removed the smudgy colour fringing using 'slight' antialiased settings. It was perfect, after a few years' dissatisfaction with the look of serif-type fonts in word processing. I could have this wrong and may only have used it with Debian with DWM window manager on a regular x64 machine, or maybe LXDE bypasses these dot files? (Maybeit can be made ot use them?) I did try logging in just to Openbox to see if the settings in my current .Xdefaults file took effect, but as yet nothing. Someone here will get what I'm trying to do/remember, hopefully. Thanks. | There is a simpler way, Code: Select allapt-get install lxappearance Cheers!!! |
Hello, I have the following problem. I installed Debian 7.5.0 (with KDE) on an Intel NUC D34010WYKH, which has an Intel 4th generation (Haswell) CPU with an Intel HDA internal sound card (Realtek ALC283). The problem is this: all sounds are somewhat crackling, with some non-constant distortion, noise or stuttering reverberation. Sorry, I can't describe it better in English words I searched a lot for solutions, without luck. Can anyone help me to try to understand what's going on? Things I've tried: I tried to add the option tsched=0 to the pulseaudio configuration files (I've read many people solved similar problems in this way), but it did not help all programs show this problem: Skype, VLC, KDE system sounds, Kaffeine... with VLC I tried to change the output from the default pulseaudio server to the direct ALSA sound card: the problem persists; so, this makes me think the problem is not due to pulseaudio, but at a lower level I tried to download, compile and install the latest drivers for HDA from Realtek website for Linux Kernerl 3.0 series: compilation and installation succeeded and maybe the situation now is a little bit better (a bit less distortion), but it's not solved at all volume of all the output devices (master, PCM, etc.) is not at 100%, so it's not just a problem of "too high volume" if I run the latest Ubuntu 12.04, sounds are just fine, with no distortion at all, so it's not due to a defective hardware often, if lower the volume to 0%, and then bring it back to a normal level, the distortion ends and the sound output is correct until the end of the stream; unfortunately, as soon as another stream starts (for instance: a system sound is played or I close VLC and start another instance to play another file, etc.) the distortion (almost certainly) happens again Thanks to anyone who can help me to try to fix this. | I had simlar symptom/noise when changing speakers to new ones with ground-connect. Solution for me was to disconnect earth/ground connector. (Dont try this if you are not sure its an electrical problem). Skickat från min Nexus 5 via Tapatalk |

Hello, I have a quite strange problem with my keyboard. When I type text fast the cursor seems to lag (for some milliseconds) as if it can't process so many characters so quickly. As a result some of the characters I have typed are omitted and sometimes I get double characters (bouncing). Sometimes this problem gets really annoying and I can't find any information about it. I'm trying to find out if it is a hardware or a software problem, but I can't figure out any way to do this. I've read that xkbset can solve bouncing, but in my case it didn't really help. I use a laptop (Toshiba Satellite C660) with Debian Squeeze (kernel 2.6.38-2-amd64). Any ideas are more than welcome. Thanks in advance, Stelios | Do you have integrated intel graphics? I have had this problem (very rarely) since kernel modesetting came around. |

I've been using Debian-based distros for years with satisfaction. Recently I was running Kubuntu, but for reasons I need not relate here, I decided to try a switch to Debian/KDE. I installed on a separate partition the Netinstall version of Debian Jessie Alpha 1. I have used the Netinstall in the past, because it lets me install mostly what I actually use. All is going well, except the addition of my Brother HL-2270DW laser printer. In Kubuntu, CUPS found both the USB and network connections to the printer, and installation was successful. In Debian, the network connection is not seen, and the USB version will not print a test page.

========== edit ========== Now I think it is not a real performance problem. I am happy with the current state thus marked it as [Solved]. See post #3 for explanation. ========== original post ========== I am new to Debian. I noticed that my laptop CPU never work at full power in Debian testing. Are there any ideas to let the CPU work ondemand instead always try to save power? Here are some more information: (1) System information: I am on Dell Precision M6800 with i7 4800MQ. The system has a new installation of Debian Jessie (xfce): Code: Select all$uname -a Linux YW 3.13-1-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.13.10-1 (2014-04-15) x86_64 GNU/Linux (2) I actually don't know how to observe CPU frequency (This is a separate question. As I notice long ago on other distributions, "cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep MHz" does not report correct frequency in pstate driver). However, the performance in Debian is less than half of that in Archlinux and Fedora (all on 3.13 kernel, and I have tested CPU performance in Fedora just now with dual boot). And I know when the CPU is in maximal performance, the fan should be very loud and the CPU temperature should be about 80~90℃. However, on Debian now the CPU is at most 70℃ on 100% load (while idle is 40~50℃) with the fan completely quite. Thus I am sure the CPU is not fully perfoming (I do scientific computing thus do need the CPU performance). (3) I noticed that by default, I have Code: Select all$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor powersave After installing cpufrequtils and set the governor, I get Code: Select all$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor performance However, the true performance does not change. And here is the output of cpufreq --info (take CPU0 as an example) Code: Select all$ cpufreq-info cpufrequtils 008: cpufreq-info (C) Dominik Brodowski 2004-2009 Report errors and bugs to cpufreq@vger.kernel.org, please. analyzing CPU 0: driver: intel_pstate CPUs which run at the same hardware frequency: 0 CPUs which need to have their frequency coordinated by software: 0 maximum transition latency: 0.97 ms. hardware limits: 800 MHz - 3.70 GHz available cpufreq governors: performance, powersave current policy: frequency should be within 800 MHz and 3.70 GHz. The governor "performance" may decide which speed to use within this range. (4) I tried thermald, which doesn't help either. With or without thermald, the CPU is both in low performance state. | There is always the Debian Wiki on CPU scaling, and also this about Thinkpads, I saw yours is a Dell. Have you thought about going in to the EUFI/BIOS and turning some of those scaling features off? The machine itself could be overriding whatever OS you use, especially if it's not plugged in to an AC outlet while you do your resource (CPU/memory) intensive work (if the CPU has to 'race', it will suck the charge out of the battery fast). I own a quad core PC and I like all the power states/throttling enabled (4 sleep states and two CPU speeds) because it prolongs the life of my CPU, I could make mine 'race' full-time too but I'm happy it only breaks a sweat when it has to. You probably know this already but any device charges faster if it's off/not in use, so if you are plugged in to AC and your CPU is full speed ahead, all guns blazing, your battery will essentially get a trickle charge, similar to a car alternator's 'maintenance' charge of a car battery, slow and tiny. This probably wasn't much help but some things to think about. Also, make sure you have the applicable power-management packages installed, like acpi and acpid for example, and other proprietary packages like firmware-linux-nonfree, intel-microcode and iucode-tool found in the "contrib" and "non-free" repositories, in Synaptic go to Settings/Repositories/Debian Software tab, check DFSG-compatible (contrib) and Non-DFSG-compatible (non-free), refresh Synaptic, you should then be able to find your packages, install them and reboot, no guarantees of course but it worked for me in the past, ironically my situation was opposite, I wanted my CPU to slow down (dynamic scaling). I also installed xfce4-goodies, it has a panel plugin to show/control the CPU speed. FYI, cpu-freq is pretty much obsolete and not needed after kernel 2.6.x (I made the mistake of installing it first, then I had to get rid of it and its configuration before doing the above), if you have the right mix of the aforementioned packages (above), you don't need to do any configuration files, etc, it's probably just a matter of your kernel needing the proprietary CPU firmware so it and acpi/acpid can get along. |
I got a new, faster internet provider, last week. My ca 2011 PC has a 2.4 gHz only wireless card. The maximum download I can get is about 32 mbps. My son's MacBook Pro can select either the 2.4 or the 5 gHz band. It gets over 60 mbps, easily. I have been under the impression that 2.4 should be just as fast as 5. Is it time to buy a new wireless card, or is there some other problem (such as location)? Tim PS - I have played with all 11 channels of the 2.4 gHz band and settled on the fastest one. It was all it could do to get 10 mbps on the Auto setting. | Newer cards use an faster protocol n300 vs n150 mb/s (mbits/s not bytes) max. theoretycal speed. Generally dual band cards can use both protocols but is really not quite related to the band used. The newer 5 GHz band was necc. for congested areas like offices, airports, etc and happened at the same time as more bandwidth was needed. |
Hello, I'm a new french user in this forum (not in Debian or other Linux OS). I tried to install the latest stable version of Debian (download yesterday : Debian Wheezy 7.4.0) on my new computer Fujitsu Celsius W530. The version installed is exactly this one (given by the commande "uname -a") : PCNAME 3.2.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.2.54-2 x86_64 GNU/Linux => A Debian Wheezy 64 bit I have a problem with the Intel ethernet card : I217-LM (the model was verified on the Fujitsu specifications and also on the Windows 8 I use on another partition). During the install procedure, Debian did not find the ethernet card. I continued the install without it and after I tried to make it found. I got a Linux driver in the Intel Web Site but I saw after that Debian loaded yet this driver (e1000e), so I did not install the driver from Intel (I needed to get linux-headers and to compil the files). So when I force the system to load the driver, it gives no error but the device is still not found when I try to bringup the network interface. I searched on Google and also inside this forum (for example here https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-reference/ and in the search field), but I didn't find any solution. May someone help me to: - understand why I see the Device (with "lspci" command) and the module "e1000e" (I tried also the "e1000" one) loaded with "lsmod" command ? - make the card work to allow my debian for connecting to internet ?

Hi all, I have a Huawei E3131 Mobile Broadband USB stick and a Debian Wheezy OS. I'm trying to use usb_modeswitch and I've been reading lots of discussions, some of them explicitly referred to the E3131 model.

Hi, I'm writing this post in case someone else runs into a similar problem and needs help. I have Evoluent Vertical Mouse connected via USB. It would work fine connected to my laptop on AC power, but it would freeze when on battery. I have "laptop-mode-tools" installed, and I traced this problem to laptop-mode-tools trying to put the mouse to sleep and not waking it up. To solve this, I have blacklisted the power management for the USB mouse. First, I did "lsusb" to find the mouse device: Bus 002 Device 003: ID 1a7c:0068 Evoluent VerticalMouse 3 And got the ID of the device. Then I edited the laptop mode configuration and added this id to the blacklist: /etc/laptop-mode/conf.d/usb-autosuspend.conf edit this line: AUTOSUSPEND_USBID_BLACKLIST="1a7c:0068" I hope this helps --Coder | Thanks! It works. |
I've tried to get my old Canon PIXMA MP140 to work with several Linux distros: no luck. (ppa:michael-gruz doesn't seem to help) I used to have Lexmark 1155, but the ink was more expensive then the Canon printer. It seems I have to go for yet another printer, but which? I can't afford very expensive printer and the ink should not be expensive either. It should be a multipurpose device (photocopier/scanner/printer). I also can't afford a new printer every time there is new release of CUPS. I checked the openprinting page for Canon printers, and it seems that most of the working printers are no more sold in Finland. MP- and IP-series are pretty much non-existent, and MG-series (everywhere) doesn't seem to be supported. Or maybe I should give up and buy Windows for the machine? | Try this Canon PIXMA MP140 |

Hi guys, I'm relatively new to debian wheezy (I just moved on from Mint) and I'm having some real trouble with getting my wireless to work. I've been scouring the forums for hours on end and I'm gonna start tearing my hair out soon. From what I gather, it's a Intel Wifi Link 5100 AGN, and it requires the iwlwifi firmware. When attempting to install debian earlier this morning, I was prompted to add non-free firmware to my bootable USB in order to install the wireless adapter's firmware. Apparently, it needed the following firmware: 1. iwlwifi-5000-5.ucode 2. iwlwifi-5000-4.ucode 3. iwlwifi-5000-3.ucode 4. iwlwifi-5000-2.ucode 5. iwlwifi-5000-1.ucode I managed to find the firmware for 5000-5, 5000-2, 5000-1, but not for 5000-3 and 5000-4. ? Where the hell are these missing bits of firmware ? I hence went ahead and instaled debian with just the ethernet in hopes of ironing out this issue later on.y However, I've still not managed to make any sense of how to get it working. I consulted https://wiki.debian.org/iwlwifi?action= ... -N_devices but still, i can't get it to work. An error message I get here is: "Your current backend does not support installing files". Help; I'm completely lost. Could anyone please help a newbie out? I don't understand how Linux mint could have got the wireless working so easily without the firmware being so easily available.

Hi. Im having issues regarding this printer. It is running in a debian headlless server that among other things, it is acting as a scanner-printer server. It is in an small office with 3 or 4 linux machines than depends in this server for printing. Today it didn't worked at all. I checked all the configuration. Then i resintalled the drivers, then purged and reinstalled the whole cups. Also the scanner is not working, it stalls at the midle of a scanning. I get segmentation fault with this. I checked also for the dpkg.log, cups wasnt updated. So anything changed at all but today the printer is not printing. I thought that the printer was faling. Then i checked just to be sure in a windows xp system. It is working . So it is not the printer fault. IM now pointing to a hardware failure in the usb port, a kernel module, or something I dont know. Also i had selinux, now it is disabled and it is not working at all. Also the system is on a Raid 1, i do a scrubbing to check for hard disk failure, everything is normal here The error log from cups contains a lot of lines like this: W [05/Feb/2014:19:15:30 -0600] failed to CreateDevice: org.freedesktop.ColorManager.AlreadyExists:device id 'cups-Brother_DCP-7065DN' already exists and something about avahi E [05/Feb/2014:19:29:32 -0600] Avahi client failed, closing client to allow a clean restart I have tried to delete the printer and reinstall it in cups with another name sveral times. Also just in case i reinstalled avahi. I really dont know the cause. Any other idea?? Edit: removed solved from topic | Hi, As a workaround the printer is working with ful capabilities in another Debian box, however this is a desktop and it is not always on. This Pc is 32 bit, the server is 64 bit, so maybe is something architecture related since brother packages for printing are only for 32 bits |

Hi: I wanted to burn some stuff onto a DVD+RW, but I've been having the worst time trying to get it to mount. I'm running Squeeze on a Gateway NV53A laptop.The drive is supposed to write to these discs, so I know that's not the problem. The drive also works fine reading non-blank DVDs; I play movies in there all the time, along with software, when I feel like battling with Wine to get a vintage game playing. It seem to not even recognize that there's a disc even in the drive, let alone mount it. It acts like there's nothing there. Very weird. I feel like there's something profoundly stupid that I haven't done or set up here. Can anyone help? | Blank disc can't be mounted, but system can detect blank disk and show icon to it on desktop.

My question is what is the correct way to fix the problem because what I did isn't pretty. I have tried searching for an answer but haven't found one. I have a Canon Canoscan 9000F that isn't supported by the pixma backend -1.0.22 that is installed in Wheezy Based on info from the web, I found that the pixma-backend 1.0.23 supports it. This spring, using this link I was able to install the pixma backend 1.0.23 and use my scanner. I just ran configure and make and used checkinstall -D make install. http://linuxbear.blogspot.com/2012/12/c ... linux.html A few days ago, the scanner stopped working. I don't know why. Part of my troubleshooting was to uninstall and reinstall pixma backend 1.0.23 I discovered that it is installing files to /usr/local/* rather than to /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/sane/* where the default Wheezy sane-backend files are located. When I try using Synaptic to uninstall the default libsane 1.0.22-1, I get warnings that gnome and other important packages will be removed. So I didn't uninstall My ugly hack was to rename the pixma 1.0.22 libs (e.g. backup_libsane-pixma.*) and copy the version 1.0.23 libs from /usr/local/lib/sane/libsane-pixma.* to /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/sane/ Now the scanner is working again (!) but there has got to be a better way to do this. How do I remove the older version sane package backends without taking other gnome and other packages? P.S.

I just bought an HP printer. Then I was installing HPLIP during 2.5 days; more than expected. (Needless to say I was cursing HP the last day). Now I am happy to succeed, but I also feel that it was a good luck. I think this story should be shared. I am a Linux user since 1998, of rather low geekness. Almost always I use precompiled binaries. Thus I hoped to use auto install (and ultimately did). Last years I use Debian. It seems I understand now the origin of the problem. People of hplipopensource.com take the current release of Debian (among other distros), and adapt auto-installer to this release. After that, Debian people include this new version of auto-installer to the next release of Debian. And so on. As a result, the auto-installer never works! It always complains that this release is not supported yet. I installed Debian 7.1 from my (somewhat old) DVDs. I instructed the installer not to use any network mirror. Do not laugh, this is essential. (When I did otherwise, I got Debian 7.4 instead of 7.1 - not supported yet...) According to this Debian release, the hplipopensource.com Installation Wizard gave me auto-installer 'hplip-3.14.1.run'. Running it I got a message: "Disable the CD sources in your apt sources list". Frankly, I use Synaptic rather than apt. Well, I've found this /etc/apt/sources.list and commented out all CD sources. Running hplip again I saw that it fails to install even gcc. Well, no wonder: no network mirror. I added a network mirror. The rest was rather easy. So, I got the impression that a not-so-geeky Linux user, like me, have some positive, but rather small probability to pass through all timing conditions before selling his/her new HP printer. Indeed, if Linux is quite new, it is not yet supported. If it is a bit older than needed, a new hplip fails for this reason, while an old hplip does not support the brand new printer (I guess so; I did not try). And most importantly: the hplip site tells me that Debian 7.1 supplies HPLIP 3.12.6 and it does support your printer. As the version of HPLIP supplied with your operating system supports your printer, you may continue to use that version of HPLIP. That is true; but they forget to add that my distro contains an outdated version; it just does not work. What a catch! Or maybe I am naive somehow? Others seem to feel better. What do I miss? | I don't understand why you are making it so difficult. I have an HP printer, a 1606dn Pro, which requires a special driver package (printer-driver-foozjs2) in addition to hplip and a proprietary firmware plugin. I run Debian sid, using the sid repos (of course), and I have never seen such a message about the hplip version. Code: Select allroot@imerabox:~# apt-cache policy hplip hplip: Installed: 3.14.1-1 Candidate: 3.14.1-1 Version table: *** 3.14.1-1 0 500 http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ unstable/main amd64 Packages 500 http://http.debian.net/debian/ unstable/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status It typically takes me 15 or 20 minutes to install hplip on a newly-installed sid system. Most of that time is taken running hp-check and installing the many dependencies that hplip requires. Once I have all the dependencies, configuring the printer is very fast. I do the entire job in a terminal using apt, until I have the hplip GUI which is used for the final step. HP probably thinks they don't support Jessie too, but Debian doesn't care and neither do I. |
I just installed Debian Wheezy on a very new machine: Intel I7-4770 Haswell Processor Asus Maximus VI Impact (Mini-ITX board) For now, I am using the CPU built-in Intel HD 4600 graphics. I got ethernet working using the latest Intel kernel module, but sound and wifi don't work yet. This board has a pretty funky sound card, so I'm not sure what it will take fix that, but my main issue is something else entirely. Whenever I log out / shut down / restart from an X session, the display goes black. I'm guessing the machine is locked up at this point, but haven't confirmed. I'm guessing it's display related as doing a reboot when not running X works fine. I'm using XFCE with lightdm, but the problem also occurred when I did a clean install of Gnome. What's the best way to troubleshoot an issue like this? | When you get to black screen do you see text? If the screen is completely blank, there is something wrong, if not, it is normal. |
I am trying to set up a dual-boot with Windows 8 and Wheezy (7.4) 64-bit and while the dual-boot itself is fine, the GNOME environment fails to launch, with just a black screen and a flashing cursor... I am able to get a terminal with ctrl-alt-F1. I've narrowed down the problem to the Video Card and after doing some research on google, I found the general solutiion to the problem is to add nomodeset to the kernel arguments, install firmware-linux-nonfree, and do something with the xorg.conf file. The first part is easy, but the second and third: 2. the description for firmware-linux-nonfree in wheezy does not list my GPU: AMD Radeon HD 8400, but it is listed in sid and jessie; and installing any of these versions did not help 3. xorg.conf does not exist and xorg -configure fails with "Number of created screens does not match number of detected devices" also xrandr fails with "Can't open display" Obviously my Display adapter won't be supported until Jessie is released, so my question is: Is there a sort of primitive video driver that will allow Debian to use the basic functionality of my GPU? In windows, for example, if I uninstall the graphics drivers from device manager, it will revert to some primitive "VGA Compatible..." driver that can display at least at low-resolution; is there something like that here? If not, how do I tweak the above solution to work for me? Extra details for my laptop here: http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-CA/product/tos ... 57007.aspx Thank you in advance! | Perhaps it would work with the radeon driver inside the wheezy-backports kernel? Open video drivers have two parts--one is built as a kernel module inside the kernel, and the other is part of an xorg video driver. Other than that, perhaps using the sgfxi part of the smxi script (smxi.org) to install the proprietary ATI driver would work. |
RESOLVED: basically, I had an nvidia video driver installed, which was screwing with hardware acceleration. Followed the instructions here and resolved it: http://askubuntu.com/questions/86465/sw ... s-not-work I am trying to get Debian Jessie working on a new Lenovo Thinkpad E440.

Hello, I've recently installed a debian-kde on my new Asus X102-BA. In multi boot with windows 8, and ubuntu (debian installer couldn't install the grub in the efi partition, ubuntu could, so I installed ubuntu mostly to be able to boot with debian, it was the only way I found to do it). The kernel is 3.2.0-4-amd64 I'm new to OS installs, it was the first time I did that by myself. All works well, but the touchscreen.

Hi. I have just installed Debian Testing on my new Lenovo S540. Specs: cpu: intel i5 hdd: both normal hdd and a 16gb msata ssd ram: 8gb gfx: both intel HD haswell (4600 I think) and Radeon 8670M Problem 1: I have no WIFI. I have googled which chip is used and I have seen it as both Intel, Realtek and Broadcom. So I have no idea what it is. Problem 2: I see some weird smudges and checkered background when I hover over favourites in activities, but only for a moment. Also see checkered background briefly when closing a window. Some kind of effect that is not working? Problem 3: The laptop hangs when waking up. More testing is needed, but it seems to happen both from hibernate and suspend. Problem 4: When I choose "Power off" from the menu, the machine just reboots. When the desktop is gone, I get a very brief glimpse of a line saying something about reboot. The sparse effects in Gnome3 all feels a bit sluggish. Not much, but somehow I get the impression that they could be running just a bit smoother. From googling I think many of these are caused by drivers (or lack thereof) for the Radeon GPU and something about its tandem show with the Intel HD GPU. If that is the case, then I can easily live without the Radeon GPU. This laptop is for work/study so no games will be installed anyway. And from what I know of the Intel HD GPU, it should be more than capable of what I intend to do with it. For some reason, the touch screen works brilliantly with no config at all. That was the last thing I thought I would get to work. Many thanks in advance for your help. I am not a complete newbie, but this is my first laptop install of Debian and I have never had these hardware issues on any desktop/server. Is there a place to see if there are any missing drivers? Looked in syslog. Didn't see anything, but if you like, I can post it. | If you can't figure out what wireless chip you have, you probably should not have installed testing. You need to add non-free repositories to fix your wireless and graphics issues. If you don't know how to do this you can download an .iso with non-free & firmware pre-installed from here: http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/unoff ... -firmware/ This will probably make things easier for you. |
Hihi, Usually my sound works without a hitch after a fresh install once I've been into alsamixer. My installs are usually standard except I usually use XFCE as my DE. This time I didn't install a DE - once I was in I manually installed X and Openbox. I've got everything working except I've noticed that I have no sound even after unmuting the device in alsamixer.

Hi there. Hi installed Debian stable on a Acer Aspire 5040, but I have the same problem: I can't use the wifi because the network manager tell me the wifi is disabled by hardware switch. Whitout any good results, I already tried to do: - sudo rfkill unblock all - sudo rfkill unblock wifi - I added blacklist acer_wmi in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf - I tried to switch on and off the wifi from Windows and restart the system The output of rfkill list is: Code: Select all0: phy0: Wireless LAN Soft blocked: no Hard blocked: yes Has anyone had the same problem? | The special buttons for wifi and bluetooth on these models generally only work with the original wifi and bluetooth cards. I think the BIOS is coded to respond to the key scancode and switch the card directly. Though, some models may use a special Windows key driver. I can only suggest you could check the bios settings for anything relevant. Or, use a different mini-PCI card that defaults to being on. |
Hi. I am a new Debian user and just installed 7.3.0 Wheezy amd64 on a new computer. Things went fine for the most part but I am not able to install the appropriate driver for my NVIDIA GeForce GT 635 graphics card. (The install also failed to install the latest GNOME environment because, I guess, it was not using the correct video driver for my system.) I tried to follow the directions in the wiki for the Version 304.88 driver, which I believe is the one I need. I got up to the step where I needed to type: aptitude -r install linux-headers-$(uname -r|sed 's,[^-]*-[^-]*-,,') nvidia-kernel-dkms but the system responded that it was unable to locate the package nvidia-kernel-dkms. How can I track down why it is not able to find the driver for the install? I did edit the sources.list file as directed, and the update appeared to go ok. Also, during the install I had 3 DVDs. The install program asked me to insert each DVD so that it could use the information on them for installing applications as needed. The problem was that I was not able to eject the DVD 1 to insert either of the other 2 DVDs. The system seemed to have DVD1 locked in for the duration of the install. Therefore the sources.list file only references DVD1. Not sure if this has anything to do with the video driver problem. Thanks in advance for any help you can give to a new user! I have heard so many positive comments on the Debian volunteers while researching other distros. | Try installing with sgfxi. You'll need an active internet connection.

Will I need to give Debian any forewarning of any of these upgrades before booting, or do I need to set any of these things up before expecting them to work? I ask because I remember from experiences in Windows that it sometimes did install new drivers when some essentials changed, but it wasn't always, and considering linux is so fully configurable, I wondered if I needed to prepare Debian. | No, I don't think so. Generally when I move installs to new machines, the only thing to do is delete /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules so it forgets the old NIC and sets up the new one. Also if you have a proprietary video or net driver or such, that may need attention. |
1. I have two sound cards, one Realtek and one for HDMI. According to alsamixer, the HDMI card is the default. I read https://wiki.debian.org/ALSA but I am still unsure how to change Realtek to the default. 2. While trying to install Realtek drivers with "./install" as stated here, I get the fallowing output: Code: Select all.....Decompress Driver source v1.0.2x-5.18 Compile Driver........ ./install: 19: ./install: ./configure: not found make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop. make: *** No rule to make target `install'. Stop. ./install: 23: ./install: ./snddevices: not found I checked in Synaptic and gcc, make, build-essential, as well as linux-headers are all installed. So how would I make Realtek the default sound card and how would I properly install the Realtek Drivers? I'm running Debian 7.3 64-bit. Thanks. | I had exactly the same problem. The way I got to solve it I have already posted in this topic http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=110733. |
Desparate. I am trying to add new printer to newly installed Debian Wheezy system. Canon MP270 inkjet, USB connected. http://software.canon-europe.com/products/0010753.asp Got driver downloaded above site then, sudo dpkg -i --force-architecture ./cnijfilter-common_3.20-1_i386.deb sudo dpkg -i --force-architecture ./cnijfilter-mp270series_3.20-1_i386.debYou are done. Seems driver has been installed. Then I go system setting - printers - add new printer (local) , it detects MP270 so I try to add it, but then it just won't add it. It goes back blank printers window. How come??????? | I am assuming the new printer is a replacement for an old printer, but if this is not the case, is your user in the lp and lpadmin groups? |
Hello, the internal microphone is not working on a Samsung series 9 laptop. I'm using Debian testing, I did a netinstall, just with openbox. I don't have pulse audio installed. I've tried the microphone with Audacity and with Chromium. The internal microphone works fine with the latest Ubuntu, so I'm trying to understand why it works on Ubuntu and not on Debian. The alsamixer settings are the same. The alsamixer looks like this: http://i.imgur.com/kFZGqPG.png The output of lsmod looks like this: http://pastebin.com/gYptSaaT | hello, from what i can see from your screenshot, the capture channel is not enabled. highlight the capture channel and press space, the "-------" should then change to "CAPTURE". |

Who can help me solving this problem? | "Waiting for /dev to be fully populated" since you can get to a terminal, you might find something in /var/log/kern.log? you might check the bios and turn off every device not needed like serial, parallel, floppy, secondary ide, etc. i think a lot of these are obsolete, but this one might be worth a try?

Edit: Found an acceptable workaround to this problem here. It's not a true solution, but for my purposes, it works well enough. A true solution would make it so that the LCD would turn off automatically after X amount of seconds of inactivity, and then power back on when you press any key. With the work around, you have to press a key combo to turn the power to the lcd off/on. I have two laptops running Debian 6. (I'll get around to upgrading to 7 some day or another.) Edit: They've both been upgraded to Debian 7. Edit note: These systems are command line only. There is no X Window System running. It's just a shell prompt. One of them is an HP Pavilion dv7t-3000, and the other is a Toshiba Satellite P305-S8820. The HP runs better all around (faster, and MUCH cooler). The problem I'm having with the Toshiba is that the screen goes blank, but never powers off. I didn't do anything different on the HP, but it will power the screen off after a period of inactivity. I checked the BIOS on the Toshiba and there aren't any options for screen power management, so I'm not sure what the problem is. Can someone point me in the right direction? | Okay, this may sound like a stupid question, but you're sure its not just a blank screensaver, right? I'm using LightDM / DWM right no screensaver set, just a blank screen after about 5 minutes. I'm assuming that when you move the mouse or press any keys, your screen doesn't activate again? Or does it? Also, which DE are you running? |

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong, but it simply doesn't turn on. It's not because the device is damaged or something, it's a formating issue. When I formated it under windows, everything seemed to be fine. But now I used gparted and the problem came back. This is how linux sees the file system after formating it under windows: Code: Select allroot:~# fsck.vfat -vr /dev/sdb1 dosfsck 3.0.16 (01 Mar 2013) dosfsck 3.0.16, 01 Mar 2013, FAT32, LFN Checking we can access the last sector of the filesystem Boot sector contents: System ID "MSDOS5.0" Media byte 0xf8 (hard disk) 2048 bytes per logical sector 16384 bytes per cluster 1554 reserved sectors First FAT starts at byte 3182592 (sector 1554) 2 FATs, 32 bit entries 505856 bytes per FAT (= 247 sectors) Root directory start at cluster 2 (arbitrary size) Data area starts at byte 4194304 (sector 2048) 126248 data clusters (2068447232 bytes) 63 sectors/track, 255 heads 63 hidden sectors 1012032 sectors total Checking for unused clusters. Checking free cluster summary. /dev/sdb1: 1 files, 1/126248 clusters The differences are: hidden sectors, reserved sectors and System ID . I tried to set the same parameters while formating under linux, by the following command: Code: Select all# mkdosfs -n IAUDIO -F32 -v -R 1554 -h 63 -f 2 /dev/sdb1 mkdosfs 3.0.16 (01 Mar 2013) /dev/sdb1 has 65 heads and 62 sectors per track, logical sector size is 2048, using 0xf8 media descriptor, with 1024640 sectors; file system has 2 32-bit FATs and 8 sectors per cluster. FAT size is 256 sectors, and provides 127821 clusters. There are 1560 reserved sectors. Volume ID is e56a6e81, volume label IAUDIO . But unfortunately I can't set the same amount of reserved sectors. I can set either 1552 or 1560, and, as you can see, if I try to set 1554, it sets 1560. I noticed also that it has different number of heads (65) and sectors (62) per track. I don't know if this matters, and I have no idea how to change that. I'm also not sure if the same number of reserved sectors make it works. Moreover, I tried to use entire device (option -I in mkdosfs), but it seems this doesn't work either. Does anyone know how to format a mp3player under linux? | AFAIK, on Linux you should use your player's MSC mode because it doesn't see MTP mode. Just go to your player's setting and switch modes. Then you can drag MP3s with your file manager. I did that on Sansa. http://kb.sandisk.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/162 |
Hello everybody Trying to get a usb printer working (as many others here, I guess). Normally I would expect that scanner to be supported as brother offers the drivers. So I downloaded the appropriate drivers brscan3 64bit and scan-key-tool 64bit from http://welcome.solutions.brother.com/bs ... d_scn.html. Followed the install instructions: namely dpkg -i brscan3....amd64.deb and dpkg -i brscan-skey...amd64.deb.

Hello, The nvidia driver version 304.88-1, the one in Wheezy (package http://packages.debian.org/wheezy/nvidia-kernel-dkms) refuses to build with a 3.10 kernel, like the one present in the Wheezy-backports repository. (I had to install this 3.10 kernel for my D-Link network card) This is apparentely a known bug : http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=717645 and https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topi ... alue-not/1 The apt-get output : Code: Select allParamétrage de nvidia-kernel-dkms (304.88-1+deb7u1) ... Loading new nvidia-304.88 DKMS files... First Installation: checking all kernels... Building only for 3.10-0.bpo.2-amd64 Building initial module for 3.10-0.bpo.2-amd64 Error! Bad return status for module build on kernel: 3.10-0.bpo.2-amd64 (x86_64) Consult /var/lib/dkms/nvidia/304.88/build/make.log for more information. So, I have two questions. First, how do I need to behave with the Debian project ? The open bugs related to this problem say this is only related to Testing and Unstable and that it is fixed. Do I need : - 1. To reopen the bug saying that it still affects Wheezy-backports ? - 2. To ask to backport the fixed Nvidia package ? Secondly, what would you advise to have a working Nvidia driver ? I see 3 solutions : 1 ) manually patch the version 304.88 with the patch you can find here and there on forums 2 ) Use apt pinning and install the package in Jessie 3 ) Manually install the latest 325.15 driver downloaded from Nvidia website, that has been fixed for the 3.10 kernel. And lastly, I couldn't find searching on the web and in this forum anyone having the same problem with the 3.10 kernel of wheezy backports. Is it because I'm wrong and there is a simple fix to the problem, or because I didn't search well ? Thanks for your advise ! | First of all, backports are not created for supporting newer proprietary drivers - in fact, they are declared to not support them at all. I had to install this 3.10 kernel for my D-Link network card You should have install backports to solve this problem, not the kernel - or alternatively go for testing/unstable by switching repos/reinstalling the system. regards. |

Hello all. I'm a newbie. I'm using Debian/Gnome Version 3.4.2 on English display language. I want to keep this display language. But I work with many Brazilian Portuguese documents. And I have a Brazilian Portuguese keyboard. So, once logged on the system, I successfully changed my keyboard layout to match it using the " dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration " command line and I also manually edited the " /etc/default/keyboard " file. Once I am logged on the system the keyboard is working with the layout I need and fine. The problem is BEFORE I login: in the login screen that appears just after the system boots the keyboard is working with a different layout. I'd like to fix it by setting the login screen keyboard layout to the same keyboard layout I set for after the login screen. | Check is exist file /etc/default/locale or not.

I've just decided to forego the simple life of Xubuntu 13.04 for Debian 7 Xfce 64 bit (all updates applied) but I have two remaining issues. One is that I used to be able in Xubuntu 13.0 to keep the screen backlight at the 3rd of fourteen brightness settings. The relevant folders aren'tthere in Debian that Xubuntu had, i.e. /sys/class/backlight/acpi... etc, where I had dumped a figure earlier in the year with Xubuntu. The hotkeys (Fn with F5 and F6) are working, so I can adjust the brightness - there are 14 levels (and when I'm out using just a text editor the 3rd lowest setting is plenty). Something is working somewhere. Also though all the same bluetooth stuff is installed there is no bluetooth icon on the panel. If I put bluetooth-applet in the terminal nothing starts, and nothing bluetooth-related starts. [Edit: I now have an icon for Blueman in the panel having installed firmware-atheros but I'd prefer the other icon and bluetooth program Xubuntu uses as it allows tethering with a phone very simply.] Having 'gone hardcore' after five years Ubuntu and Mint I'd like to solve this instead of retreating and I have three hours to do so today while in someone's 'net-equipped home, my own being now web-free. Thanks for help on either topic. | And your computer is...? The bluetooth maybe just lacking a driver.

Hello everybody, I have recently installed Debian 7.0 on an Ultrabook ( dual-boot with Windows 8 ) and getting the WiFi adapter to work is proving to be quite difficult.

Dear all I am a not-very-experienced linux user and I want to introduce my current situation in order to figure out whether I can be helped: I have a tool, a goal, and a problem. (A)The tool is Matlab running on Debian-7-wheezy. This one can be regarded as a not very convenient language given my particular needs, but I am sorry to say that I am completely useless at programming in C (I would love to learn, though). (B)The goal is to track the Y-coordinate of my USB-mouse and use it to define the movement of a sinusoid grating (black-and-white bars) across the screen. (C)The problem is that I didn't manage to successfully read the virtual file that represents my USB-mouse (/dev/input/event1) from Matlab. Now, the full story... Besides my incompetence with C-programming, I have chosen Matlab because it becomes quite useful when designing visual stimulus: the sinusoid grating as well as other black-and-white patterns can be easily written, modified and displayed on a screen, this flexibility is really helpful in the context of my current task "neuroscience: experimental studies on visual system" ...in other words, watching movies together with lab animals. The troublesome lines in my Matlab script look like this... fid = fopen('/dev/input/event1'); skip = fread(fid, 1, 'int16', 12) mouse_data_type = fread(fid, 1, 'int16') mouse_data_code = fread(fid, 1, 'int16') mouse_data_value = fread(fid, 1, 'int8') mouse_delta = (mouse_data_value); fclose(fid); end This decoding strategy comes from a couple of assumptions... 1) The format of the binary files in '/dev/input/' is... struct input_event { struct timeval time; unsigned short type; unsigned short code; unsigned int value; }; 2) The size of a single mouse event is = 16 bytes (this information was provided by the program "evtest") To summarize, now, Matlab reads the "/dev/input/event1" file as follows: it skips 13 bytes (in 16-bit format), then reads the 2 following bytes (in 16-bit format), and it finally reads a last byte (in 8 bit format). The last 8bit-byte provides a value that is stored as 'mouse_delta' which will be later called in order to define the position of the drifting bars. It (sort of) works... The bars follow the direction of the mouse movement along the Y-axis (if I reverse the direction, the bars change to the opposite direction as well), however the speed of the bars doesn't change when I move the mouse faster, independently of the mouse speed the bars move at a constant velocity (this sucks). I am afraid it works just by chance XD... the truth is that I don't have a solid knowledge on the mouse data packets structure, and this can be essential to understand what I am actually doing. I have been looking intensely for this information, unfortunately the different sources differ in their indications. I am really lost, do you have any suggestion? -USB-mouse data packets structure?? -Strategies to decode the '/dev/input/event1' file ?? Whatever you can think of will be greatly appreciated, I am about to stumble my head against the wall. Thanks a lot for your attention, I am looking forward to your opinions. | Ok people, I am done!, it works! SOLVED! The solution was: not to fear C-code... -I took advantage of the program evtest (written in C) available as a package http://packages.debian.org/wheezy/evtest -I downloaded the source code, I went through it and I edited it in order to include the following string... Code: Select allprintf("Size of event: %d ", sizeof(struct input_event)) ...into the main while loop. After that, while running the modified version of evtest, I could see how the size of each event was nicely printed in terminal. -I went to '/usr/include/linux/' in order to have a look at the header file 'input.h'. There I found the structure of a single mouse data packet... Code: Select allstruct input_event { struct timeval time; __u16 type; __u16 code; __s32 value; }; -By knowing the size of a mouse event (16 standard bytes) and by knowing the structure of a mouse data packet I managed to write a matlab script that can decode the binary file representing the usb mouse, the location of this file should be something like this '/dev/input/event*' or '/dev/input/mice'. To summarize, the decoding strategy is something like... *Open the binary file *Skip 8 bytes (8bit) *Read one byte (unsigned 16bit) *Read one byte (unsigned 16bit) *Read one byte (32bit) *Close the file -Here you have the whole matlab script... do not use it with commercial purposes ! Code: Select allfunction DriftingBarOP Fps = 100; %Sampling rate (fraction of second --> 100Hz) previous_phase = 0; %The initial value for the mouse coordinate to be tracked is set to zero while true %Infine loop --> non-stop tracking mouse coordinate previous_phase = updateVars(previous_phase); %This will replace the previous mouse coordinate (past) by the current coordinate (present) pause(1/Fps); %After the replacement wait one 100th of second, then go for the next loop end end function new_phase = updateVars(previous_phase) %Obtains the current coordinate by adding to the previous mouse coordinate mouse_delta = updateMouse; %the increment between initial and final mouse positions (mouse_delta) plotFrame(previous_phase, mouse_delta); new_phase = previous_phase + mouse_delta; end function mouse_delta = updateMouse % get current mouse position derivative % obtain position update from /dev/input/mice % return as mouse_delta speed = 0.3; %This factor defines the relationship beween actual pointer speed and the speed of the bars fid = fopen('/dev/input/event1'); %Open the binary file representing your USB-mouse (the evtest package can identify it for you) skip = fread(fid, 8, 'int8'); %Skip eight standard bytes (8bit-bytes) mouse_data_type = fread(fid, 1, 'uint16'); %Read one unsigned 16bit-byte and store the obtained value as 'type' mouse_data_code = fread(fid, 1, 'uint16'); %Read another unsigned 16bit-byte and and store the obtained value as 'code' mouse_data_value = fread(fid, 1, 'int32'); %Read the last byte as signed 32bit fclose(fid); %Close the file. At the end we have scanned a single mouse event (16 standard bytes --> size provided by evtest) %IMPORTANT %The decoding strategy (reading frame) was obtained from evtest %(1st) Modify the while loop in evtest in order to include %--> printf("Size of event: %d ", sizeof(struct input_event)) <--- %...this will print the size (in standard bytes) of a single mouse event %In my case = 16 bytes %(2nd) Go to '/usr/include/linux/' and open the header 'input.h' %...this guy will tell you what's the actual structure of a mouse event %struct input_event { % struct timeval time; % __u16 type; % __u16 code; % __s32 value; %}; %(3rd) Now we know that, in order to decode the binary file representing %the usb mouse, we have to read a 1st byte (unsigned 16bit), a 2nd byte %(unsigned 16bit) and finally a 3rd byte (signed 32 bit)... but before this we %have to skip 8 standard bytes in order to omit information about stuff % that we do not need (e.g. time). At the end we have gone through 128 binary %digits, this is, 16 standard bytes (the size of a single event) %The decoding strategy (reading frame) was obtained from evtest %Thanks Vojtech Pavlik! %fprintf('type: %d code: %d value: %d ', mouse_data_type, mouse_data_code, mouse_data_value) %The previous line (commented out) prints mouse coordinates as evtest usually does if mouse_data_type == 2 && mouse_data_code == 1 %'type=2' mouse movent, 'type=4' means mouse clicking %'code = 0'--> X-axis will be tracked, 'code = 1'--> %Y-axis will be tracked mouse_delta = mouse_data_value; %use the value obtained from the last byte to define mouse_delta else mouse_delta = 0; %any event not involving movement in the selected axis will be ingnored end mouse_delta = mouse_delta * speed; %let mouse_delta be rescaled by an adjustable factor end function plotFrame(phase, mouse_delta) % current_phase gives current location of bars % speed, determined by mouse movement rate, gives amount by which new_phase % should be incremented BarNum = 10; % Number of vertical bars Xmax = 1280; % ScreenWidth (number of px) Ymax = 800; % ScreenHeight (number of px) X = 1:Xmax; % X is a vector from 1 to ScreenWidth Y = 1:Ymax; % Y is a vector from 1 to ScreenHeight X0 = (X / Xmax) - .5; % Rescale X -> -.5 to .5 Y0 = (Y / Ymax) - .5; % Rescale Y -> -.5 to .5 [Xm Ym] = meshgrid(X0, Y0); % 2D matrices Xf = Xm * BarNum * 2*pi; grating = sin( Xf + phase + mouse_delta); % Make 2D sinewave imagesc( grating, [-1 1] );% % Display colormap gray(256); % Use gray colormap (0: black, 1: white) axis off; axis image; % Use gray colormap end Well that's it... |
I have a rather sizable stack of Wi-Fi cards I've salvaged from old computers. With that in mind, I would like to see if they are compatible with Free Software. While some models -- such as Intel based ones -- appear to be proprietary binary blob-free I have had issues with them in the past. If these cards do work, I would like to donate them to the cause. | Re: Intel cards. What about firmware-iwlwifi? Doesn't that consist of blobs? Many other wifi cards require non-free firmware also (Atheros, Realtek, Ralink) |
Hi folks, I have recently fried my video card and have pugged in a replacement. The old card was nvidia GT610 based and the new is GT630. On startup I immediately, out of habit, booted into text mode, went to a previously downloaded nvidia-installer and ran it. Wangled round the wrong gcc version etc and the installer appeared to do all ok, but 'startx' failed with 'No screens found'. About this point it registered that it probably would have been alright if left untouched but too late now. After an examination & trying a few things I booted up on a live CD to do a bit of googling. While doing this I discovered that I should be letting the Debian repos supply the driver so I ran aptitude purge nvidia-settings nvidia-kernel-dkms nvidia-xconfig nvidia-glx-ia32 followed by aptitude -r install nvidia-settings nvidia-kernel-dkms nvidia-xconfig nvidia-glx-ia32 I still couldn't get an X server started. below is a copy of the /var/log/Xorg.0.log Copuld nouveau be an issue here?

I recently upgraded this machine from Ubuntu Maverick 10.10 to Debian Squeeze, x86_64, by wiping the root partition (I kept my backup and my home partitions). Everything has gone OK except this: for whatever reason I cannot pair my Microsoft Bluetooth Notebook Mouse 5000 with this machine any longer. In bluetooth-applet I can see the mouse when I go to pair it with the machine, but it simply times out and the pairing fails. I've run the following (both as root and my unprivileged user), but I get these results every time: Code: Select all# bluetooth-agent 0000 00:22:48:ZZ:YY:XX Pincode request for device /org/bluez/3861/hci0/dev_00_22_48_ZZ_YY_XX Agent has been released I installed bluez-compat, and "hidd --search" gives me the following: Code: Select all# hidd --search Searching ... Connecting to device 00:22:48:ZZ:YY:XX Can't get device information: Connection reset by peer The target mouse definitely used to work in Ubuntu, so I doubt it's a problem in the physical layer. I tried another Bluetooth mouse (a Rocketfish/BestBuy POS), and it doesn't pair either. The Microsoft mouse I would like to use pairs just fine with my Debian squeeze laptop, but they're not using identical Bluetooth adapters as far as I can tell. lsusb reports that I've got a Broadcom BCM2210 in my workstation (the subject of this post), and lsusb on my laptop reports some kind of Broadcom Bluetooth adapter, but doesn't report its chipset. I'd really like to stay on squeeze if possible, but my googling for this has only led me to old documentation, or stuff that applies to wheezy or sid. | The problem is identical in wheezy, so it feels like it's more of a configuration issue than core software problem. Any ideas? |
SOLVED: I've solved backlight control by adding the xorg.conf.d file below and installing xbacklight. Give it a read to better understand. ============================================================= Hello folks, first off, I thank you for taking your time and trying to help. The situation is as follows: I've installed Debian on my iMac late 2009, its a aluminium with core 2 duo 3Ghz and Geforce9400. The Debian defaulted to the nouveau, which despise apparently working gave frequent hangs to the gnome environment. Similar issue: http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=104416 Installing the proprietary nvidia driver solved the issue, and I assume also gave me direct rendering. However, now I cannot control the brightness, and its all maxed out. Following part of this, as I've seen in other sources, is supposed to give brightness control to laptops. Basically I've made Code: Select allsudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-nvidia-brightness.conf Code: Select all Section "Device" Identifier "Device0" Driver "nvidia" VendorName "NVIDIA Corporation" Option "RegistryDwords" "EnableBrightnessControl=1" EndSection This makes the Nvidia driver work and supposedly gave brightness control. However since this is a desktop Mac, I'm using a regular Pc keyboard and those have no bright key up or down. I can even pair the apple keyboard but it gets very weird keys and strange layout. So to sum up, I may have enabled my display brightness but cannot test it, even looked at /sys/class/backlight but there's nothing there. Any suggestion on how to get brightness control to work is very much appreciated. ps: had a similar issue with a previous install of debian in the same mac. | Hey folks, so I've solved this by installing xbacklight after having the following: Code: Select allcat /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-nvidia.conf Section "Monitor" Identifier "Monitor0" VendorName "Unknown" ModelName "Unknown" HorizSync 28.0 - 33.0 VertRefresh 43.0 - 72.0 Option "DPMS" "1" EndSection Section "Device" Identifier "Device0" Driver "nvidia" VendorName "NVIDIA Corporation" Option "RegistryDwords" "EnableBrightnessControl=1" EndSection Section "Screen" Identifier "Screen0" Device "Device0" Monitor "Monitor0" DefaultDepth 24 SubSection "Display" Depth 24 EndSubSection EndSection The monitor and screen sections are copied from the file nvidia-xconfig creates, which is a regular xorg.conf file that is not used anymore. So I'd rather copy the relevant stuff for video and screen and remove the rest, inputdevice and serverlayout. I use the xorg.conf.d following this and this advice. Most important is the "EnableBrightnessControl=1" bit, this will enable brightness control (duh), but you won't have options for it anywhere. Neither the usual "brightness and lock" show any sign, nor does the nvidia-settings have any options for controlling brightness. So after some searching, I've found about xbacklight, apparently X has control of backlight but no way to actually change it, that's where this awesome little application comes in. Xbacklight is really simple to use, if you already have an output with support enabled, just: Code: Select allxbacklight -set xx where xx is the value between 0 and 100, it also have -inc and -dec options. Very useful. So I've assigned hotkeys for "xbacklight -inc 5" and "xbacklight -dec 5" in the keyboard options. This is working really smoothly, plus I've added "backlight -set 50" to start up so its start already dimmed. One more plus is that "brightness -set 0" means an actual turned off screen. |
Brand new installation of Wheezy on 3.0.0-1 kernel. Once the computer goes to sleep the USB keyboard can't wake it up. I can plug a PS/2 keyboard and wake it up. I will appreciate any input. Thanks Job | I think that's normal. In general, only PS/2 keyboards can ever wake up any system, due to the way that function works through BIOS, afaik. Correct me if I'm wrong, but that's the only way I've ever heard of wake by keyboard functioning. |
Hello Everybody!!! Here is a run down of my problem. I've been trying to connect a HP Designjet 430 to a Dell Optiplex 960 via Usb ( parallel to usb cord ) I'm currently running Debian 7.1 x64 When go to system settings, printer, add printer, it shows up!

I'd be interested to read any comments about an issue with this old and problematic graphic card: screen brightness. Code: Select allIntel Corporation 82845G/GL[Brookdale-G]/GE Chipset Integrated Graphics Device (rev 03) So, I've Installed wheezy - Gnome 3, classic on this old laptop and it works surprisingly well - no freezes or booting issues which occurred after installing lenny many moons ago. I might mention that I can only boot using the nomodeset kernel parameter which I've added to /etc/default/grub. Code: Select all# cat /etc/default/grub |grep GRUB_CMDLINE GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet nomodeset acpi-osi=linux acpi_backlight=vendor" GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="initrd=/install/gtk/initrd.gz" I added acpi-osi=linux acpi_backlight=vendor to see if it would help but apparently not.

Any comments would be very much appreciated. Thank you for reading. | I have found the solution by trial and error having read how-fix-your-buggy-dsdt.

I can now adjust brightness using the FN Function key and F7 to increase brightness and F8 to reduce it. Edit. Just to add that the Brookdale froze while I was examining the brightness issue so, for maximum stability - since the laptop is for an unsavvy user - I decided to disable the intel driver and enable the vesa driver instead. |

Hello I recently installed Debian 7.0 "Wheezy", everything was ok until I decided to apply the updates Now my wireless is not working and the system does not recognize the devices, I have been looking for possible solutions 1) remove and re install the firmware 2) following the instructions in https://wiki.debian.org/bcm43xx so far... no success at all Following the instructions in https://wiki.debian.org/bcm43xx I managed to recognize the device but it never gets to configure the interface, can recognize all the available wifi conections but never conect, then when I reboot the system the devices wireless does not work again, and does not recognize the device something else I would like to report, while I was running the update manager (apper) the following error shows up and I don't know where should I report it Unable to open database read-only: Database action 'prepare dependency insert statement' failed: table dependencies has no column named items_installed thanks for your help | You're better off using aptitude or apt-get so that you can make sure that everything is installed properly. You can re-install using Code: Select allsudo apt-get --reinstall install firmware-b43-installer Exactly what did you do? https://wiki.debian.org/bcm43xx has several conflicting methods. Presumably you enable non-free, installed the firmware installer, and that then is supposed to compile and install the firmware. Did that step work? What does Code: Select alllspci -vnn -d 14e4 give? (http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Dri ... ed_devices) What does lsmod give when you 'manage to recognize the device'? What does it look like after a reboot? What about ifconfig -a? Anything in dmesg relating to your wireless device? In what sense can you 'recognize' it? What connection manager are you using? Network manager? Wicd? What does your /etc/network/interfaces look like? If you think an update broke it, you can always look at /var/log/apt/history.log and see exactly what may have happened. I would've guessed wheezy updates should only deal with critical and security issues, so it's a bit surprising. What does your /etc/apt/sources.list look like? |

Hello! First post here. I have a bit of an issue relating to the wireless in Debian. I have a temporary Puppy Linux setup on my USB stick, but I've been wanting something more permanent. I've gotten Debian installed somewhat recently, and almost everything is going smoothly. However, it refuses to detect my wireless card, while Puppy will. I'm not sure if Puppy uses a different kernel or it's just been setup more to be more flexible. (I have tried to get the configuration from Puppy but it seems to store it's configuration differently than Debian despite using some of the same stuff.) I ran iwconfig on both OSes, and got this: Debian: Code: Select alleth1 unassociated ESSID:"matrix" Mode:Managed Channel=0 Access Point: Not-Associated Bit Rate:0 kb/s Tx-Power=20 dBm Sensitivity=8/0 Retry limit:7 RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off Encryption key: Removed Security mode:open Power Management:off Link Quality:0 Signal level:0 Noise level:0 Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0 Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon: Puppy: Code: Select alleth1 IEEE 802.11abg ESSID:"Matrix" Mode:Managed Frequency:2.437 GHz Access Point: 00:24:B2:B8:2C:7E Bit Rate:54 Mb/s Tx-Power=20 dBm Sensitivity=8/0 Retry limit:7 RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off Encryption key: Removed Security mode:open Power Management:off Link Quality=87/100 Signal level=-42 dBm Noise level=-91 dBm Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0 Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon: I've removed the encryption keys because I don't really want them on the internet. (Unless it's fine and I'm being paranoid.) I will say, however, that Puppy's key was longer than the Debian's, and they were both quite different from each other. Anyhow, I wish to know how to fix the "unassociated" problem. I think it means it's not picking up the card, but I'm not sure. I've been looking on the internet (via Google) and on this site for a solution, but I haven't found anything yet. If it helps, I am on a Thinkpad T43p. Finally, I'm sorry if I've put this in the wrong section. I'm not sure if this goes in System configuration or Hardware. Thanks in advance. EDIT: See last post. I changed the name of the eth1 in /etc/network/interfaces to wlan0. That seemed to fix it. | Have you installed Debian on your hard drive or USB stick? Laptop or desktop? when you run lspci, what does it show for a wireless card? Does it need firmware-linux and/or a non-free driver? Debian usually has wireless on wlan0. Have you done a search for a solution on this forum? |

With a little Google-Fu, I've found that this means the drive I installed is set to the wrong region code. Is there nothing I can do short of trying to return the drive? | You can install regionset from the debian repos. The man page for it isn't very good, but look at less /usr/share/doc/regionset/README once it's installed. If everything goes well, regionset will show you the current region code of the drive, how often it has been changed and how many changes are left. Shameless blog-plug: see also http://verahill.blogspot.com.au/2011/06 ... s-key.html You'll probably also need libdvdcss2 which is in the deb-multimedia repos. Finally, you can always (or at least should be able to) do software decoding. It might be choppier, but it works if your dvd player isn't set to the same region as the DVD. At least it worked in the 2000s. |
I have an hp DL580 machine and I upgraded Debian 6 to 7 (AMD64 edition; kernel was also updated to 3.2). This machine has an ATI ES1000 graphic card. So I followed the instructions listed below to install the card, mainly by installing firmware-linux-nonfree package. Code: Select allhttp://wiki.debian.org/AtiHowTo Unfortunately, the 3d acceleration does not work and as a result, gnome-shell starts in the fall-back mode. The output of Code: Select allgrep AGP /boot/config-$(uname -r) is Code: Select allCONFIG_AGP=y CONFIG_AGP_AMD64=y CONFIG_AGP_INTEL=y CONFIG_AGP_SIS=y CONFIG_AGP_VIA=y and the output of Code: Select allgrep DRM_RADEON /boot/config-$(uname -r) is Code: Select allCONFIG_DRM_RADEON=m CONFIG_DRM_RADEON_KMS=y .

I'm currently using Debian sid and I have Wifi connection problems on kernel's 3.8 and 3.9, I don't think this is a Debian problem as I had the same problem on Arch, and the same problem using other kernels like Liquorix and Ubuntu, I think this maybe a kernel bug, but so far I haven't heard anyone else experiencing the same problem I'm having with the same hardware as me, which makes me think maybe somethings wrong on my end? I will be browsing the web with no problems then out of the blue I won't be able to load anything, it will just sit there waiting, the connection doesn't drop out, I just can't bring up anything, it's not just in the browser that's effected either, apt-get update is very slow as well, then after a while everything's all good again, sometimes a reboot works and sometimes it doesn't, I'm currently using kernel 3.7 which works fine, I don't see any error messages in dmesg when this happens so I don't know what to post besides what hardware I have. I have tried various things like turning wlan0 power savings off, and using the nohwcrypt=1 option, but neither make any difference, my hardware are as follows.

I installed Debian Wheezy 3.2.0-4-powerpc on my daughter's iBook G4. (Well, I tried to install Mint PPC, but apparently somehow I installed Debian instead). I can't get the wireless to work.

My laptop monitor keeps shutting down (like it was going into powersaving mode) only it happens after 10-30 seconds (it flickers briefly before going black). It used to stay on for several minutes a day or two ago but now it barely makes it to 10 seconds. Closing the lid and then opening starts it up again but the same thing happens after 10 seconds, over and over again. Doesn't matter if I'm on command line or GUI, 10s and blackout. My laptop is Asus A6Vm, running latest Debian Etch (only updated what the Update Manager has offered) Is it something software related (and thus fixable) or is it just a sign of my laptop in its death throes? Ideas? | Have you tried booting into single user mode? |
I have a Debian Squeeze server. Last night I noticed the system had 31 available updates, so I went ahead and did them.

I'm on wheezy/testing (always up to date) and when trying to suspend the desktop pc (either from pm-suspend or Gnome3 suspend option), the suspend process start, screen go blank, power seem to shutdown for a fraction of a second and then suspend is resuming itself and i'm returned into lock-screen login prompt. Since i'm at my job, i can't post details about my motherboard and log files. I'll provide them in a next post. Meanwhile, i can tell that the BIOS can be configured as APCI 1.0, 2.0 or 3.0 (i've currently try setting it to 1.0 and 3.0). Was hoping to have someone else having the same behaviour. | Details certainly will help so please do post those, but here are some preliminary thoughts. Debian squeeze and wheezy are among the most reliable systems in Linux with regard to suspend/hibernate. (I am running 6 different distros at the moment) You might have an odd hardware/firmware problem but we can quickly check and eliminate some other common possibilities; I've seen each of these. More than one swap-file on the HD and consequently etc/fstab does not point where it should. No matter how many Linux distros you have on the machine you only need one swap-file. It is a good idea to eliminate all save one and then make sure etc/fstab points there. The swap file is not large enough. I run mine at slightly more than 2X installed RAM. Anything less than that and suspend/hibernate becomes problematic. Be skeptical of any advice to go smaller until you test. The swap-file is turne off. You will see this scroll by was the system boots or you can check for it in the log. Suspend is working but if it seems not to resume do CTL-ALT-F7 to make certain X has turned back on as it should. From time-to-time I have to do this with with squeeze, though never with wheezy. A kernel module fails to unload as it should -- look at wireless in particular. With LMDE, for example, I must have wireless configured and in use for suspend/hibernate to work, even if I am on my ethernet connection! Weird stuff but so it is. Thee are some oher possibilities but we will need to know more about your system. |
