Base installation

Debian GNU/Linux Lenny (testing) Daily Build Debian Installer

Kernel built in module for lan interface does not work, I used an old Etch (testing) net installer

Kernel

Compiling a custom kernel

apt-get install linux-source-2.6.18 libncurses5-dev kernel-package
cd /usr/src
tar jxf linux-source-2.6.18.tar.bz2
cd linux-source-2.6.18
make menuconfig
make-kpkg --initrd --revision gacq01 kernel_image
cd ..
dpkg -i linux-image-2.6.18_gacq01_i386.deb

Manually edit /boot/grub/menu.lst and reboot

NVIDIA

Free drivers (nv)

Installed during xserver installation

Proprietary drivers (nvidia)

Only for 3D acceleration and other advanced features, if not use free driver, you'll feel better.

Installation

apt-get install nvidia-kernel-2.6.18-4-686 nvidia-glx nvidia-settings nvidia-xconfig

Configuration

Automatic

nvidia-xconfig

Manually

Update your /etc/X11/xorg.conf

Section "Module"
        [..]
        #Load   "dri"
        [..]
EndSection

Section "Device"
        Identifier      "NVIDIA"
        Driver          "nvidia"
        Option          "NoLogo"
        Option          "RenderAccel"   "true"
        Option          "NvAGP"       "1"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
        [..]
        Device          "NVIDIA"
        [..]
EndSection

Wireless interface

apt-get install firmware-ipw3945 ipw3945d ipw3945-modules-`uname -r`
Optional
apt-get install network-manager

network-manager-gnome requires users to be in the group 'netdev' for it to work. If users aren't in the group 'netdev' then it won't automatically appear, and work, in the Notification Area.

If you're looking for a manual installation procedure see the ipw3945 driver manual installation for Debian Etch

WebCam - Only work with v4l2

Manual

Driver: http://linux-uvc.berlios.de/

apt-get install libpt-plugins-v4l2
svn checkout http://svn.berlios.de/svnroot/repos/linux-uvc/
cd linux-uvc/linux-uvc/trunk
make
sudo make install
modprobe uvcvideo
dmesg | tail
ln -s /dev/video0 /dev/video

Notes:

  • Only v4l2 is supported
  • Add users to system group "video"


Using packages (not working?)

apt-get install linux-uvc-source libpt-plugins-v4l2
m-a prepare
m-a a-i linux-uvc
modprobe uvcvideo
dmesg | tail
ln -s /dev/video0 /dev/video

Testing Webcam

Using Mplayer

Just run this and you should see the webcam image:

$ mplayer -v tv:// -tv device=/dev/video0:driver=v4l2:outfmt=yuy2 -vc rawyuy2 -fps 15 -vo x11

Using Luvcview

Using luvcview we can take pics and record video.

apt-get install libsdl1.2-dev
wget http://mxhaard.free.fr/spca50x/Investigation/uvc/luvcview-20070512.tar.gz
tar -xvf luvcview-20070512.tar.gz
cd luvcview-20070512
make
sudo make install
luvcview -d /dev/video0 -f jpg -s 640x480

Now you can use the buttons (a bit ugly) or the following hotkeys while running the program:

  • n -> BRIGHTNESS UP
  • b -> BRIGHTNESS DOWN
  • x -> CONTRAST UP
  • w -> CONTRAST DOWN
  • c -> SATURATION UP
  • v -> SATURATION DOWN
  • z -> GAIN UP
  • a -> GAIN DOWN
  • r -> SHARPNESS UP
  • e -> SHARPNESS DOWN
  • s -> SCREENSHOT
  • p -> RECORD A VIDEO
  • l -> RESET
  • q -> QUIT

Sound card

If you have conflict with the webcam USB microphone you can use this configuration in /etc/modprobe.d/sound to set the correct device order asignation.

alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel
options snd-hda-intel index=0
alias snd-card-1 snd-usb-audio
options snd-usb-audio index=1

Frontal multimedia buttons

Configure the frontal buttons using LineAK.

apt-get install lineak

Then you should add button configurations in /etc/lineakd.def. Add the following lines to the end of the file:

# Dell XPS M1210
[DXPS]
brandname = "Laptop/notebook"
odelname = "Dell XPS and Inspiron 9100"
[KEYS]
Play                       = 162
Previous                   = 144
Next                       = 153
Stop                       = 164
VolumeUp                   = 176
VolumeDown                 = 174
Mute                       = 160
[END KEYS]
[END DXPS]
# end Dell XPS/I9100  Laptop

Now do:

$ lineakd -c DXPS

Then you can attach a command to the different buttons. Make your changes in $HOME/.lineakd/lineakd.conf. This is just an example using Amarok (media player) and Aumix for volume control:

Mute = "aumix -v 0"
Next = "amarok -f"
Play = "amarok -t"
Previous = "amarok -r"
Stop = "amarok -s"
VolumeDown = "aumix -v -5"
VolumeUp = "aumix -v +5"

Finally, you have to run the lineak daemon:

$ lineakd&

Add this to any start script (like .xinitrc) to run it on start up.

dvd/cdrom

Error trying to open /dev/sg0 exclusively (Permission denied)... retrying in 1 second.
cdrecord: Permission denied. Cannot open '/dev/sg0'. Cannot open SCSI driver.

do:

chgrp cdrom /dev/sg0

Modem (Not tested)

Driver

These are NOT free, however - an uncrippled version will set you back USD 19.99, the free ones only support 14k4 :-(

Suspend

Suspend to RAM - Not working yet

apt-get install gnome-power-manager

research

to validate

  • After the installation of the NVIDIA driver, Suspend to RAM worked well after setting SUSPEND2RAM_FORCE="yes" in '/etc/powersave/sleep'.
