==Using Debian Installer Etch beta 3 release==
+
;Debian GNU/Linux Lenny (testing) Daily Build Debian Installer
−
Error message:
+
Kernel built in module for lan interface does not work, I used an old Etch (testing) net installer
−
No common CD-ROM drive was detected.
 
−
SATA driver can block access to CD drive in installations from CD.  On systems having a SATA IDE controller that also has the CD drive connected to it, you may see the installer hanging during hardware detection for the CD drive or failing to read the CD just afterwards. A possible reason is that the SATA driver (ata_piix and maybe others) is blocking access to the CD drive.
 
−
You can try to work around this by booting the installer in expert mode and, in the "Detect and mount CD-ROM" step, selecting only the drivers needed for CD support. These are (ide-)generic, ide-cd and isofs.
 
−
The drivers needed to access the disk will still be loaded, but at a later stage. By loading the CD drivers before the SATA driver in this way, you may be able to complete the installation. Note that CD-ROM access may still be an issue after rebooting into the installed system.
 
−
===Booting debian netinst from USB drive===
 
−
The workaround I used is to boot from a USB stick (don't worry you will get your CDROM working later).
 
−
<pre><nowiki>
 
−
wget http://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/testing/\
 
−
main/installer-i386/current/images/hd-media/boot.img.gz
 
−
gzip -dc boot.img.gz >/dev/sdX
 
−
</nowiki></pre>
 
−
Enable USB drive boot from BIOS setup, and then Install Debian base system as usual.

===Using kernel boot parameters===

−
(Check)
+
==Compiling a custom kernel==
−
You can append libata.atapi_enabled=1 to the install or expert command lines at the boot prompt to get your cdrom detected and then be able to install from it.

==Touchpad==
 
−
Debian identified it as a regular mouse. However installing the xserver-xorg-input-synaptics package and using the "synaptics" driver in X.org works fine.

+
 
 +
==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
 
  apt-get install libsdl1.2-dev
−
  wget http://mxhaard.free.fr/spca50x/Investigation/uvc/luvcview-20060706.tar.gz
+
  wget http://mxhaard.free.fr/spca50x/Investigation/uvc/luvcview-20070512.tar.gz
−
  tar -xvf luvcview-20060706.tar.gz
+
  tar -xvf luvcview-20070512.tar.gz
−
  cd luvcview-20060706
+
  cd luvcview-20070512
 
  make
 
  make
−
  ./luvcview
+
  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

===Using another driver===

=Sound card=
−
'''To research'''
+
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.

 +
 
 +
=Frontal multimedia buttons=
 +
Configure the frontal buttons using [http://lineak.sourceforge.net/ 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.
 +
 
 +

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

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 :-(
