Hi to all.

I have got a problem with starting squeeze guest on etch host with paravirtual xen. When I try to start the domain I received the following messages.

On screen:

In logs:

I happen to be running in a VMWare virtual machine. That, along with a high-resolution CRT-based display, is the reason I don't like this particular setting as well as most folks.

I just upgraded to Squeeze, and it does something different from Etch: A short time into the boot process, it changes the display font. The BIOS font was just fine, and I can read the POST and all that. But when it changes to this narrow-stroke font, the white strokes don't show up well as one pixel at my current resolution of the host's display!

How is the font being changed during the text screen bootup process, and how can I disable that or switch to a more usable font?

Hello. First of all sorry if I duplicate an entry topic, but I looked for a while and didn't find it so I post it as new entrance.

My admin password doesn't work. I cannot make changes to the system. I cannot install new things. I need help. Is there any way to fix the problem? Is there any folder to look for passwords, or change them? I don't know what has happened, because it worked ok before.

I hope someone can give me advice of any kind: where to look for information related on these topics (security, admin, password, folders, etc.), an old entry treating this problem, or a possible solution or explanation about that topic.

Thank you in advance.

Hi all,

(In time--- I`m running squeeze 2.6.32-AMD64)

I've been trying to make the wireless card of my new
notebook (a HP DM4 with i5 processor) work. The card
is a Broadcom, which is supposed to work with the
brcm80211 firmware.

I've followed all recipes that I
could find but everyone ends up with a general system
freeze as soon as I execute "modprobe brcm80211" (the
last step to make it working). The crash forces a
machine hard reboot (through power buttom) but I can't
recover the system after that (that is, the system
freezes during boot), forcing me to reinstall the whole
pack.

Does anyone know how to solve this?

Server has 3 network cards

eth0 is internet connection
eth1 is local network
eth2 is new internet connection

configs:
ETH0:
10.1.44.3 / 255.255.255.0
gw 10.1.44.1

ETH1:
192.168.5.1 / 255.255.255.0

ETH2:
194.160.184.42 / 255.255.255.240
gw 194.160.184.33

All computers are connected to ETH1 interface that runs dhcp.
They are using connection to internet using ETH0 interface that is working well.

ETH2 is new. From server's root i can ping any server using ping -I ETH2 interface, so the connection is live.

The problem is that this connection is not used even if i specify it in routing table as default connection.

What am doing wrong? Please advice.

Current routing table:
Destination/Gateway/Genmask/Flags/Metric/Ref/Use/Iface
