does this mean your router hasn't 'forgotten' the DHCP lease - It normally realises and assigns the same IP again.

quick n00b straightner;
X = GUI/X-server
TTY(1,2,3,etc) = Text user Interface/CLI known thusly known as *no-X, console or Framebuffer.* basically no GUI.
you'll need to understand the difference between them.
Oops! {blush} see my sig.
- Open a terminal and I thought: CLI
- drop to TTY(1-6), and I thought: X
wuxmedia wrote:so setXkbmanp won't do anything to the TTY. (although looks like you mistyped it, but it still wouldn't do anything)

in tty, you'll wanna try

Code: Select all

sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-data
you'll get a bunch of questions related to your layout.
1 - select from ARCH list (nothing to do with arch linux)
2 - qwerty?
3 - you will see lat-american there
4 - profit.

I think - yes Ivan definitely posted this same snippet from johnraff.
Does "sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-data" edit: /etc/default/keyboard?
If so that is already setup properly and works in a GUI environment.

I don't even have 'console-data' installed in Debian SID and my keyboard at TTY (Alt-F1) works fine.

But I will try it with Pony as soon as I answer these posts.
- - - stupid typos - - - get ya every time. However I have tried both:

Code: Select all

setxkbmap latam
setxkbmap -model microsoftpro -layout latam
at TTY and in a terminal with no luck

So now I'm going to try:
- log in
- OB Menu -> "EXIT OPENBOX"
- TTY - sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-data

BTW: No router - desktop connected directly to a cable modem.

add that same chinese lucky number into ceni.
second page DNS namesservers, maybe DNS gateway as well.
I'll try that ... in a second.

Meantime a question.

Why would ceni set up my Debian SID perfectly and not in Pony?

I just did a ping 8.8.8.8 in Debian SID:

Code: Select all

 30 Oct 13 | 12:15:27 ~
    $ ping 8.8.8.8
PING 8.8.8.8 (8.8.8.8) 56(84) bytes of data.

if that works your DNS isn't working.?????????????

Now I'm really confused ... but will try everything in Pony.

About BAT0 error message: Your battery (if there is one) is BAT1 not BAT0. In the script change 0 to 1. This way mine works just fine.
About keyboard (us and gr) i have this script (mykey) in my path:

Code: Select all

#!/bin/bash
setxkbmap -layout 'us,gr' -option 'grp:alt_shift_toggle, terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp' &
exit
and call it from my autostart like this:

Code: Select all

(sleep 3s && mykey) &
I'm using my conky for keyboard layout indicator with this code:

Code: Select all

 Layout: ${if_match ${execi 2 xset -q | grep -A 0 'LED' | cut -c63}==0}us ${else}gr${endif}
The above works with all my openbox-based distros and i'm not searching solutions for each one.

@ fog: no battery - desktop computer - terminal line is fixed:

@ rhowaldt - I have 'thought' that error for years ... today it got fixed. And I have spent time on the net with a quick search.

@ wuxmedia

Code: Select all

sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-data
ended with:

I know you're trying to understand why one works and the other doesn't
please stick to one install and work with one only. makes working out what you've got working and where, possible 8)
let's stick to the network for now?

network 101, as I see it, might not be right;
1- kernel needs to find an interface, eth0 and so on. thats i(nter)f(ace) config. that looks ok.
2- the install needs to talk to the interface. this also looks ok.
3- your computer needs to be assigned an IP, it needs to be given - normally your router/modem this is DHCP it makes sure the internet hasn't got conflicting addresses.
4- once it has an IP it uses DNS to make numbers into names. (it talks to the router/modem)

has your modem got a web control panel? often printed on the back, this should let you know if theres any problems there.
this;
DHCPDISCOVER on eth0 to 000.000.000.000 port 00 interval 0
looks really weird.

if your modem has an IP 192.168.x.x often, use that as a gateway in ceni.

you need to go through things logically, on one system, although i appreciate you can't post stuff if you have no network.

It's crazy, I have not had these problems with any distro I have installed: Ubu, Xubu, #!, Mint MintDE, Puppy, SliTz (my MIL uses that), I even managed to get ARCH in here - screwed it up when I added Xfce4 - so I killed it ... and a few others. They all connected to the net with this modem.

I have to bounce back and forth between S11 (Debian SID) and Pony - to post stuff - Pony at the moment has no net connection.

At least "sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-data", despite asking for 'Latin America' gave me a "Spanish" layout that make things more compatible ... but I'm not sure it "sticks" between reboots ... let you know soon. I'll have to settle for that for the moment - at least I'm not jumping hoops with my password.

this: DHCPDISCOVER on eth0 to 000.000.000.000 port 00 interval 0 was me editing it - not sure if I wanted to post ot pubically - next output I don't edit - people are trying to help.
has your modem got a web control panel?
No ... my modem is a simple cable modem. <-- link.

@ machinebacon: Will comeback with those outputs shortly.

Guess I messed something up - had to reinstall

Waitress came up and did the keyboard: /etc/default/keyboard

Code: Select all

# KEYBOARD CONFIGURATION FILE

# Consult the keyboard(5) manual page.

XKBMODEL="microsoftpro"
XKBLAYOUT="latam"
XKBVARIANT="ntl"
XKBOPTIONS="lv3:ralt_switch,compose:rwin,ctrl:nocaps"

BACKSPACE="guess"
Nope not my board ... I changed it to ...

Code: Select all

# KEYBOARD CONFIGURATION FILE

# Consult the keyboard(5) manual page.

XKBMODEL="microsoftpro"
XKBLAYOUT="latam"
XKBVARIANT=""
XKBOPTIONS=""

BACKSPACE="guess"
EXIT OPENBOX and came back:

ñññ °°° OK 'latam' working: ß®û©€

but not in the TTY - however the fix is above to at least get to a "Spanish" board.

one question - did/does it work on live media? USB/CD
I woudn't imagine you've messed anything up - yet.
Hello. I know that service through this modem is tricky (as I use one myself). I'll give you guys some advice.

First, make sure that when checking the IP of the device, you check the right IP address (192.168.100.1). If you check 192.168.1.100, you'll be checking a different piece of hardware (usually the first device on your router).
ping 192.168.100.1
to make sure we're talking to the modem.

if you can't, run;
traceroute http://www.google.com
the first number should be your modem.

when you run ceni, put that last IP number in 'gateway' section, this should point it to the modem
then put 8.8.8.8 in the 'DNS'
otherwise I don't know.

to clear up earlier - ping will do names or numbers, if you put a name in and it doesn't work, but numbers DO, then it points to the DNS not working.

AFAIK pony would be pretty much the same base, as every one of bacons spins, dpkg-reconfigure-wise.

Which last IP?
If I don't have net access how can I traceroute google.com?

the trace route/ping was to establish your modems IP.
based on that data put 192.168.100.1 in gateway and hope to fuck it does something.

sorry about the traceroute, this normally shows your modem/router. this is mine. the router closest is no 1, no 2 is the router modem, then it skips off into the internet.

Code: Select all

wux@honeypot:~$ traceroute google.com
traceroute to google.com (173.194.41.101), 30 hops max, 60 byte packets
 1  192.168.0.1 (192.168.0.1)  0.288 ms  0.284 ms  0.387 ms
 2  192.168.1.1 (192.168.1.1)  1.546 ms  2.304 ms  3.046 ms
I've edited your post, don't want your IP floating around 8)

Thank you ... your right, I don't want it spread around, getting sloppy trying to get this to work.

Put in in gateway - zero - zilch - nada - no connect.

I'm out of ideas here.

Funny, I still could not find the name of your network controller and its kernel driver or am I overseeing something? Because like Bacon mentioned there were/are some issues with newer kernels and internet connection.

DOH! didn't follow my own lessons 8(
i ass u m e'd because eth0 popped up it was loaded.

you're right ivan - it's just not there.
when the wheezy 3.2 kernel didn't pick up my eth0 (wasn't in /e/n/i - it didn't load a kernel driver, (b44) but wow.
no ethernet at all.

S11 once you're back in a networked session,
I guess run lspci to find the name of your ethernet controller and google that with the kernel version, see if anyone else has worked it out.

Yup - gives me a "Spanish" keyboard - tiz why I change it manually - works every time.

A few years ago "latam" could be found in Keyboard layout. Complete with an image that I still have:

over time I found it did a LOT more than what was shown so I GIMPED it:

And printed out the text file your can see in an earlier post that is under plastic on my desk.

Strange thing ... both S11 and #! have a /etc/X11/xorg.conf file with a keyboad section:

Code: Select all

Section "InputDevice"
	Identifier  "Keyboard0"
	Driver      "kbd"
EndSection
Pony doesn't have that. ??
