Debian Ubuntu: CEWE Fotobuch installieren unter 64bit Linux

Kommentare Kommentare deaktiviert
Von , Sonntag, Oktober 21, 2012

Problem: Cewe Fotobuch Software wurde für 32bit Linux geschrieben lässt sich daher nach der Installation wegen fehlender Framedateien nicht starten.

Lösung:

  • Download der Software von http://www.cewe-fotobuch.de/download/
  • Konsole öffnen (ähnlich Windows Dos Fenster – keine Mausgesteuerte Installation)
  • die Datei Namens setup_Mein_CEWE_Fotobuch.tgz nach /tmp kopieren
  • entpacken des Archives (.tgz)
  • starten des Perlscripts
  • nachträgliche Installation der 32bit Framedateien (Libraries)

Copy&Paste:

sudo cp setup_Mein_CEWE_Fotobuch.tgz /tmp
sudo tar -xvzf setup_Mein_CEWE_Fotobuch.tgz
sudo ./install.pl
sudo apt-get install ia32-libs-gtk
sudo apt-get install ia32-libs lib32gomp1

Unter Suse Linux 64bit sollte das gleiche Problem bestehen, hier mit Yast die 32bit Framedateien (Libraries) suchen und installieren.

..und klappt..

Debian Bug: Slow user switching at Console (su, sudo, slow ssh logon, slow PC,IPv6 Problems)

Kommentare Kommentare deaktiviert
Von , Mittwoch, Oktober 10, 2012

Problem: On a Debian Squeeze/Ubuntu with default setup the interaction can be very slow at your Home Network. SSH Logon seems to hang seconds, Browser startup and www browsing could be slow or offer waits

Background: IPv6 was implemented on newer OS, but never used at Local Networks (IPv4) cause there are no IPv6 Nameservers!!!

Solution:

  • edit with #sudo nano /etc/hosts and comment out IPv6 with #


# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
#::1 ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
#fe00::0 ip6-localnet
#ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix
#ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
#ff02::2 ip6-allrouters

  • then disable IPv6 on boot for the services and programs with #sudo nano /etc/sysctl.conf


#disable ipv6
net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6 = 1
net.ipv6.conf.default.disable_ipv6 = 1
net.ipv6.conf.lo.disable_ipv6 = 1

  • NOW reboot the PC and test all programs like ssh login, shell login, sudo switch, Browser..for speed should be faster..
  • THIS is SAME on other OS like Windows Vista, 7, 8.. same Problems!!

Debian Linux Wheezy: Partitioning 3TB Hard Drives with GPT Table (fdisk show 2TB max.)

Kommentare Kommentare deaktiviert
Von , Mittwoch, Oktober 3, 2012

Problem: On Debian Linux the brand new 3TB SATA Drives only seen as 2TB Drives by fdisk

Background: GPT Partition Table must be used as new technology

Solution:

  • install “gdisk” the GPT Tool for big Drives with #sudo aptitude install gdisk
  • clean the new Drives first Table Headers with #sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdb count=1 bs=512
  • run now #sudo sgdisk /dev/sdb
  • Command is “sgdisk” not “gdisk” = its Paket Name
  • same on other Linux/BSD Systems on Windows use Paragon Tools

Linux FreeBSD: Protect your Disc Data against power loss

Kommentare Kommentare deaktiviert
Von , Mittwoch, Juni 6, 2012

Problem: If you use IDE or SATA Disc Drives inside your Workstation or Server without a additional uninterruppted power supply after a power loss your Disc Drives can lose data, do not boot clean up agian or damage the drive headers and sectors.

Background: SATA or IDE Drives uses “Disc Cached Controllers”, the count of this disc cache reach from 8 to 64 megabytes. In case of data write to disc, the disc controllers do cache some data who are often used. A Raid 1 Disc Mirror is affected too by this problem. SCSI od SAS are not using Cache by default.

Solution:

Install the software tool called hdparm to set the cache parameters to disabled, cause most of operating systems have enabled by default.

  1. at Debian/ubuntu do : # sudo aptitude install hdparm
  2. at Centos/Redhat do:  #sudo yum install hdparm

now lets show discs which are installed:

  1. at Debian/ubuntu do: # sudo fdisk -l
  2. at Centos/Redhat do: #sudo  /sbin/sfdisk -l
  3. at FreeBSD do: # fdisk -l

yet lets take settings to disable the cache on every boot:

  1. at all linux do: sudo nano /etc/rc.local
  2. insert for every drive hdarm -W 0 /dev/sdX (X is for a to …)
  3. at FreeBSD  do : #vi /etc/loader.conf
  4. insert once for all drives  hw.ata.wc="0"

Remarks:

  1. If you have two drives with same physical size inside your PC config a mdadm Software Raid 1 additional on your System.
  2. Set the PC Bios Settings to auto boot ofter power failure and plug off the power on you testing System, check the results. There should not be needed a check disk called fsck after the Test, but its better to do it.
  3. Hardware Raid Controllers do often have RAM Cache too, size 128MB up to 2GB, at power loss these Data lost, this can only be surpressed by a addtition RAM Cache Backup Battery connected to the Hardware Raid Controller

 

FreeBSD Linux: Remove Clear GPT Partition Table from drives

Kommentare Kommentare deaktiviert
Von , Samstag, Mai 26, 2012

Problem: FreeBSD 9 use GPT Partitionlabel by default to remove with Linux do:

fdisk message: WARNING: GTP (GUID Partition Table) detected on '/dev/sdX'
The util fdisk isn't support GPT.

do on console:

sudo parted /dev/sdX


mklabel msdos (Enter Yes!)
quit

now use Linux fdisk to recreate a new partion Table

Linux Desktop abgespeckt wer braucht da noch neue PC’s? (reduced Linux Desktop)

Der langsame PC eine unendliche Geschichte…

Sie kennen das sicher auch, taeglich wird man in seiner Arbeit von neuen Updates am PC ausgebremst, doch diese Updates haben nicht nur Vorteile, denn mit jeder neuen Software steigt der Umfang an Daten und Prozessen auf Ihrem PC. Dies macht sich durch langsamer werdende Computer im alltaeglichen Handling bemerkbar. Windows Betriebsysteme erfordern staendig neue Hardware um einigermassen arbeiten zu koennen.

Gibt es dazu ein Beispiel?

Linux Desktop abgespeckt

Linux Desktop abgespeckt

Ja natuerlich, wenn man ein Betriebsystem genauer betrachtet, gibt es da viele Bestandteile die man im Monat kaum benötigt. Linux hat hier einen entscheidenten Vorteil, der modulare Aufbau ermoeglicht es, ungenutzte Softwarebausteine zu deinstallieren. Dies laesst ein Windows Aufgrund der inneren Struktur kaum zu! Hier im Bild sehen sie den Taskmanager mit der Arbeitsspeicheranzeige eines reduzierten Linux Desktop PC mit aktiven Apps-Bausteinen “Desktop, Firefox Browser, Wallpaper-Hintergrund (Active Desktop Linux)”. Dieser PC braucht im Office Bereich nur 38-69MB RAM, ja richtig KEINE 4-8GB RAM ~ (4000MB-8000MB). Dadurch laesst sich Energie, Geld, Rechenzeit und neue Hardware sparen. Positiver Nebeneffekt der PC ist sicherer als mit vielen ueberfluessigen installierten Bestandteilen die evtl. unbekannte Fehler haben.

Manche “PC Poweruser” werden hierueber sicherlich das eine oder andere mal die Nase ruempfen oder lachen, doch wer ernsthaft darueber nachdenkt wie die PCs frueher ausgestattet waren und dennoch ihren Job im Alltag meisterten wird meine Ansicht verstehen. Es gab Zeiten da war es Standart ein Programm solange sauber zu entwickeln bis es in 4MB Ram lief. Heute werden Resourcen und Energien masslos verschwendet.

“Back to the roots” ~ bedeutet zurueck zu den Wurzeln ist heute mehr den je die Devise in der IT Landschaft.  Sie glauben es nicht? Doch dies ist die Wahrheit, denn fuehrende Universitaeten in USA / Weltweit messen den Energiebedarf der Hardware und sogar der Software auf das hundertstel Watt pro Stunde fuer neuste Systeme die in 2012-2015 auf den Markt kommen.

English:

The slow PC has a long history…

You know well, that daily updates breaks your PC performance at office. The updates do not offer advantages only, they can make slower performance or handling of your PC, cause more data pakets and resources are processed at the CPU.

Sample?

Yes of course, if you take time to have a closer look on the operating systems, you will find parts or apps of software you have never seen or used. Here you get the advantage of Linux modular build, you can remove this unneeded parts step by step and get back a safe, eco and well running system without costs. The Screenshot shows a Taskmanager of a Debian Desktop PC with active apps of Desktop, Active Wallpaper, Console, Firefox Browser and the current RAM usage of only 38-69 Megabytes RAM. Sure not 4-8GB RAM are used like on Windows OS. This saves your money, energy, time and Hardware. Beside this, the PC will be more secure cause the limited count of apps who are installed reduce the count of unknown security holes.

Sometimes the power users do laugh about my opinions, but its a fact that there have been times, where developers create apps which cleaned up and running well apps on 4MB RAM. Today most apps a compiled very fast but not very clean, this does waste resources of hardware and software.

Back to the roots” ~ this slogan is used at current time again. You don’t believe? That’ s true and no nonsense cause a high count of university’s at USA and Worldwide works hard to reduce power consumption of future systems of 2012 – 2015 with calculating and monitoring the power at hundreths Watt.

GDM3: Change Wallpaper Change background color Speed up GDM3 after boot

Kommentare Kommentare deaktiviert
Von , Dienstag, Oktober 18, 2011

Problem: By default Debian with GDM3 is slow on older Hardware like Laptops or PCs with small Graphic Card

Background: GDM3 shows Images at size 800×600 an zooms up to Screen Size, this burns speed.

Solution:
edit gdm3-theme config
sudo nano /usr/share/gdm/greeter-config/20_debian
and change to

#Use a specific background
#/desktop/gnome/background/picture_filename /..path #to wallpaper
#/desktop/gnome/background/picture_options zoom #zoom
/desktop/gnome/background/primary_color #357DAA # color Win2000

# Theming options
#/desktop/gnome/interface/gtk_theme Clearlooks

# Greeter options
#/apps/gdm/simple-greeter/logo_icon_name debian-swirl

# Play system beeps - especially the one when the greeter is ready
#/desktop/gnome/sound/event_sounds true

# Some other possible options
#/apps/gdm/simple-greeter/banner_message_enable true
#/apps/gdm/simple-greeter/banner_message_text Welcome
#/apps/gdm/simple-greeter/disable_restart_buttons false
#/apps/gdm/simple-greeter/disable_user_list false

# The lower panel doesn't work with the compositor
/apps/metacity/general/compositing_manager false

# Prevent the power management icon from showing up
/apps/gnome-power-manager/ui/icon_policy never


reboot and enjoy…

Additional Info:

  • Install “metacity” window manager its needed by gdm3 too on openbox or LXDE Desktops
  • If “desktop-base” is not installed the gdm3 background is shown lime green then create a empty file named
  • sudo nano /usr/share/gdm/greeter-config/10_desktop-base

Debian Wheezy: linux/videodev.h no such file or directory mjpg-streamer compile error

Kommentare Kommentare deaktiviert
Von , Mittwoch, September 21, 2011

Problem: On Debian Wheezy Kernel 3.0 the compile of older video4linux (like mjpg-streamer)  scripts fails with message, cause linux/videodev.h was replaced by linux/videodev2.h

Error Message at "make" compile: ...linux/videodev.h : no such file or directory

Solution:

  1. download last sources of mjpg-streamer-experimental and extract to /usr/src/mjpg-streamer/
  2. sudo cd /usr/src/mjpg-streamer/  and sudo make clean all, if fails then
  3. sudo apt-cache search videodev.h shows libvideo-ivtv-perl
  4. sudo aptitude install libvideo-ivtv-perl
  5. try recompile if fails..
  6. updatedb && locate videodev.h, shows not found ??  then..
  7. updatedb && locate videodev2.h, videodev2.h is found? then
  8. cp /usr/include/linux/videodev2.h  /usr/include/linux/videodev.h
  9. try recompile, if libjpeg errors appear then install
  10. sudo aptitude install libjpeg62-dev, the development libraries
  11. recompile..now the webcam should work..

Solution Steps:

  • Check SATA Cable and reboot and check
  • Replug all Cables and reboot and check
  • Change the SATA PORTS! Sata1 to Sata2 for Disk0
  • Change the SATA PORTS! Sata3 to Sata4 for Disk1
  • Often the Harddisks are NOT damaged!!
  • Looks like a failed Hardware Control by the SATA 600 Controllers with SATA 300/150
  • take new SATA 600 Drives and recheck

Remark: Windows Systems have same Error without Logs, the Systems seems to hang for seconds!
