Debian: add iso image to sources.list file

In this post you can see how to mount an iso image file from command line.
In this other post you can see how to mount an iso image file at the system startup.

Now we can see how to insert into sources.list file the pointing to the debian distribution image file.

Go under /etc/apt
Open sources.list file and add(better if at the end of the file) this:

deb file:/home/you/Desktop/debian_image squeeze main contrib 

Now we suppose we have squeeze distribution.
If no, change the name with your distribution name.

At the end, from the command line give:

apt-get update

Installing VirtualBox OSE on Debian Squeeze 2.6.32-5-686

I report my installation over Debian 6.0.6 kernel 2.6.32-5-686 version.

Open a terminal and give
uname -r
to recognize your kernel version.

Suppose(as in my case you have this version...as terminal output)(but the procedure is the same, also for the others)
2.6.32-5-686

Give this command:
apt-get install linux-headers-2.6.32-5-686 virtualbox-ose

Installation is done.
Give the command
virtualbox &
from terminal to launch the application(or into System Tools, into KDE menu).

Bye..

Skype - up/down camera problem on Debian Squeeze 32 bit

Here are for a curious problem with camera on skype.
Differently of cheese(all it's ok) image camera output on skype is rendered up/down.

So this solution works with my Debian Squeeze 32 bit.....
First of all those libraries should be installed....
- libv4l-0(that contains v4l1compat.so)
and

If you haven't them.... give...
apt-get install libv4l-0
apt-get install libqt3-mt

After you can try in the same shell to export those variables

export QT_PLUGIN_PATH=/usr/lib/qt3/plugins
export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so

so you can try to launch skype and assure that now webcam output is ok.....

If so.... now you only do a simple script to wrap the variables export before launching skype....
One way....
cp /usr/bin/skype /usr/bin/skype_appl
echo "" > /usr/bin/skype
(to empty /usr/bin/skype file)
and after edit /usr/bin/skype in way of it contains those lines:
#!/bin/bash
export QT_PLUGIN_PATH=/usr/lib/qt3/plugins
export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so
skype_appl&


Now launch from terminal skype or add a new launcher on Desktop/Toolbar
and all it's ok!!!
