#PROBLEMS TO START RSSOWL UPGRADE#

There are now lots of good instructions out there, but I’ll outline what I did to get SCIM up and running just in case somebody is still struggling with it. In order to be able to input Chinese and Japanese text on my Linux boxes I use SCIM. I’m struggling to keep my Japanese and Chinese alive while learning Ga, programming and trying to uphold my hard-earned reputation as hopelessly lazy. But still, think about it for at least 0.02 seconds before starting that upgrade.

Of course, I’m on a etch/lenny/sid hybrid with possibly a sprinkle of experimental as well (although this was my first upgrade in ages). But I’m still hoping that there’s something I can do to at least (1) get rid of the problem, or (2) be a duplicate of an existing bug. If the bug doesn’t seem to be in Debian BTS, I’ll have to add it. I’m going to run a few more searches and play around a bit. My problem is not sporadic lock-up, but that SCIM itself takes forever to start and consumes everything in its sight while doing so. You could try it, but it doesn’t work for me. There is Debian bug #434180 which contains a possible work-around. Otherwise your computer will soon be as fast as a ZX Spectrum. If SCIM is something you cannot live without, you may want to postpone that aptitude upgrade. Just a little warning if you’ve got Lenny in your sources.list and considering upgrading. Your Debian box can now act as a gateway to the Internet for other computers on your LAN, at least once they are configured to use the Debian box as their default gateway. You will want to modify this script to provide other rules as well, to suit your own requirements.

This script will only set up what is necessary to enable NAT and to provide some rudimentary security. You may also need to swap eth0 and eth1 unless you have eth0 connected to your ISP. You will need to modify to use the correct gateway address (no, that is *not* my ISPs gateway address, I made it up randomly). 114ġ9 echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forwardĢ2 iptables -A INPUT -m state –state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPTĢ3 iptables -A INPUT -m state –state NEW -i ! eth0 -j ACCEPTĢ5 iptables -A FORWARD -i eth0 -o eth0 -j REJECT Edit /etc/network/if-up.d/iptables (the file probably does not exist), and enter the following:ġ6 iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j SNAT –to 44. You need to know (1) which interface is connected to your ISP, (2) which interface is connected to your LAN and (3) the IP address of your ISPs gateway. There are different ways of doing this, but this just works(tm).
