RE: [gentoo-user] Laptop HDD Caddy Shack

2003-09-18 Thread Gwendolyn van der Linden
 I have just purchased a Laptop HDD, and I am now in the
 market for a nice small caddy shack for it.  I was after
 any recommendations for a caddy shack that has USB2.0 and
 is compatible with Linux.  I seen an advertisements a while
 ago advertising laptop HDD caddy shack that was Linux
 compatible (although can't remember the brand).  This made
 me think, does the caddy shack need to be compatible with
 Linux to work under Linux?  Or if your kernel is compiled
 correctly the majority of caddy shacks should work?

In the kernel config you can find a few options for particular USB
storage device chip sets.  I use a Jewel USB 2.0 mobile harddisk
enclosure with a 20 GB 2.5 HDD, which works OK with Windows, but not
flawless with Linux, using vanilla USB mass storage support.  Writing
large files sometimes hangs in Linux (both vfat and ext2).  An older 4
GB HDD I had did not work at all (Windows not Linux).

Hope this helps.

Gwendolyn.

[gentoo-user] Autofs timeout

2003-09-18 Thread Gustav_Schaffter




I have successfully setup autofs to automatically mount some nfs drives
when accessed.

But, there seems to be a default timeout of 60 seconds, and after this
timeout the mount is umounted. For my usage of autofs it would make sense
to change this timeout to somewhere around 300 seconds.

I have realized that automount can take the '-t' parameter, but I'd prefer
to have this in a configuration file instead of in the server startup
script.

When I have read the man pages, I haven't found any hints for how to setup
the timeout in any configuration file.

Is this possible? Any RTFM I've missed? Where do you configure this (if you
do it)?

Zitat von Jose Gonzalez Gomez [EMAIL PROTECTED]: 
 
  
 Martin, 
  
 The problem is that you don't only need to have java and java-config  
 installed, the problem is that you need to have a java virtual machine  
 selected with java-config. If you make an emerge with --emptytree you  
 can see that java and java-config is listed in the packages to be  
 installed, so you must have java and java-config installed, that's why  
 they don't appear in your list of updates. 
  
 And please, don't take my previous PS as a personal attack (your  
 response seems to imply you thought I was attacking you and you are  
 defending from my attack), is was meant to be just a suggestion for the  
 doc mantainers, as I've seen this question a lot of times in the mailing  
 list. I've been working with java for a long time, so I know what jar  
 is, but I think a common linux user doesn't have to know about it, so  
 this error may be confusing, as it was in your case. 
 
Jose, 
 
sorry about that! i did not mean to attack you! if it seems so to you, 
i am really sorry, but i have no reason to attack you... 
 
maybe i was a bit angry, that the 'emerge -u system' does not say anything

There were some people discussing that on the kernel mailing list a few weeks

[gentoo-user] Console font sizing...

2003-09-18 Thread Joshua Banks
How do I change the the font size for my console shells to default to a specific size.

Right now they are super tiny and I have to manually change the size everytime I open 
up a new
shell window.

I'm not to sure why they're so dam small. Trying to backtrack here and maybe someone 
will see
where I went wrong. After installing Gentoo off CD I followed the Desktop users 
Guide and chose
to use XFree86 -configure which created a functioning file that I cp'ed to 
/etc/X11/XF86Config.


I've looked in the rc.conf file and the:

Consolefont=default8x16

It also says I can find a good selection of fonts in /usr/share/consolefonts. I've 
looked in this
file and this looks to be for font styles/types. I just want to adjust the size 
system wide if
possible.

[gentoo-user] Network lost after update - solution.

2003-09-18 Thread Karl-Heinz Zimmer
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Hi,

strange happening: after my last Gentoo update the network setting
was lost, and when I tried to start it manually, this was written:


bash-2.05b# /etc/init.d/net.eth0 start
 * Bringing eth0 up...
SIOCSIFADDR: No such device
etho: unknown interface: No such device
SIOCSIFBRDADDR: No such device
etho: unknown interface: No such device
SIOCSIFNETMASK: No such device
 * Failed to bring eth0 up


Problem was that there was no eth0 entry in /etc/modules.conf

Solution was to

1. Create this file:

/etc/modules.d/modules.net

2. Make it have this content:

alias eth0 8139too

3. Call this helper script to get the new alias into modules.conf:

modules-update

OK, then /etc/init.d/net.eth0 start worked fine, but the question
remains: How could that happen?

What might I have done wrong during the update process that could have 
lead to me loosing the eth0 alias in the /etc/modules.conf file?

TIA,
Karl-Heinz

Look at your .Xdefaults file.  For example:

Try googling for Xdefaults and xterm for more examples.

Are you talking about the console (ie, text mode only) fonts or the X ones?
For the console fonts, in my rc.conf I have lat0-16 and they are big enough 
for me (maybe even too big).

For X, if you're using gnome or kde and their relative console program (ie, 
konsole and the like), they have their own config menu that allows you to 
change the fonts.
For pure xterm, I'm not sure, but I suppose you have to edit manually the 
resource files.

correctly. This is with the latest Portage.

The port in question is app-text/docbook-xml-dtd and gives the error:

Found DocBook XML 4.1.2 DTD in /usr/share/sgml/docbook/xml-dtd-4.1.2
add command failed
add command failed
add command failed
add command failed
Found ISO DocBook entities in /usr/share/sgml/docbook/xml-dtd-4.1.2/ent
add command failed
Found DocBook XSLT stylesheets in
/usr/share/sgml/docbook/xsl-stylesheets-1.60.1
add command failed
add command failed
add command failed
add command failed

...even though it completes the install. app-text/scrollkeeper-0.3.11-r1
( required by both KDE and Gnome ) will then fail it's installation
because it depends on the above being installed correctly. Now I've
searched everywhere to find an answer to this but couldn't. The problem
lies when xmlcatalog tries to register varies DTD's using the --add
command and fails (see above).

What is the process in reporting such problems with Gentoo ? 

Regards,
Nelis

Re: [gentoo-user] portage write access?

2003-09-18 Thread Spider
 
 There you are right.  I would have to learn some things.  But if  
 everything is found in the documentations, that would be easy.

Well, some things are, some aren't, thats why there is a mentoring
period for new devs where all submissions are screened by a mentor or
some other dev.

 
 is there a script for gentoo bugzilla to send bugreports easyer?

There is the Guided format, but no commandline tool. 



 
 
 When you are a known sumitter, the people trust you and your port
 comes  into the portstree within a few hours.

this is simple. We never trust a build in bugzilla. All such are given
two steps of proofreading. one in bugzilla where comments are given to
the submitter for the most glaring problems. ( Why submit an unchanged
build with a new name? do they think we can't do cp oldversion
newversion ourselves?)  

For updates we usually take patches rather than complete builds, makes
it simpler to work with and see changes instead of manually diff'ing
(Thats also part of the problem with updateS)


 How is this handled on gentoo's portage?  Are there groups? 
There are herds of ebuilds, which then belong to a group of developer
who are responsible for driving said herd. pam sound system
gnome  kde games and so on, the list of herds are in our CVS tree,
not sure if its online as well or not.

Then there is metadata.xml in all builds that are assigned to a herd,
that tags the developer responsible, and the herd it belongs to, giving
at least a fallback for the build.

 How do I  find out who created an ebuild?

Who created the original, either by checking the Copyright in the build,
or by watching the ChangeLog. originally submitted by somone at
somewhere  .

Who is responsible, check the metadata.xml, ChangeLog or $Header: $
field in the .ebuild itself


  Are there responsibilities for troubles?  Or is the only way to make
  a bug report?


Responsibilities? not sure how you mean there, but our preferred means
of communication is bugzilla, since it gives us a backlog and queue of
workforce as well as a transparent process.

RE: [gentoo-user] Really, really need help with procmail and evol ution

thank you for explaning this to me.

Op wo 17-09-2003, om 21:42 schreef Brenden Walker:
 The reason there is no update of the folder status, is because Evolution
 isn't 'retrieving' that mail.  It's being 'plonked' into right into it's
 inbox.
 
 What I'd suggest is setting up pop or imap locally, have postfix deliver to
 inbox of your pop3/imap mail folder.  Then setup Evoloution to retrieve mail
 from pop3/imap. It will then place it in the
 /home/istari/evolution/local/Inbox/mbox/new folder.
 
 That's pretty much what I do with 4 different accounts, works like a charm.

  The only problem i got is that i don't know where procmail

  /home/istari/evolution/local/Inbox/mbox wherein 3 folders are

2003-09-18 Thread Andreas Vinsander
Hi!
Since I became a member of this list today, I just wanted to say hello 
to all fellow gentoo users.

I have been using gentoo on my machines at work since april-may 2003.
During the summer I also setup a web/mail-server at home using gentoo. 
Have yet to move my home day-to-day box over to gentoo...

I also happen to be the incharge sysadmin of a local church. We are in 
the coming days (read: during the weekend) goin to switch over from an 
old RedHat based server to a new gentoo based one. After that we are 
starting to switch OS on the workstations (there are 10 of them) from 
WinNT4 to gentoo.

Well now u know what I'm upto when not working... ;-)

RE: [gentoo-user] Console font sizing...[Solved]

2003-09-18 Thread Joshua Banks
Ok

I figured it out. 

Problem:
When opening KDE's Konsole terminal for command line access, the font size was 
almost to small
to read. 

Solution:
Click on Konsole Icon to start Konsole.. once inside Konsole click on Konsole's 
toolbar:

SettingsConfigure KonsoleSessions tabHighligt the session that your Konsole 
defaults to. (This
is noticable by looking in the lower left handside of the Konsole window its self.) In 
my case is
was defaulting to a shell console/session, and then adjust the font type.

I didn't realize that there were so many Console Session flavors. Once I figured 
out that
everytime that I clicked on Konsole to bring up what I call a shell terminal, that 
the shell was
defaulting to shell console session. 

Oh yea.. Gotta luv linux... so much to learnso much to learn about Linux 
Symantics..
Sheesh.. :P

Re: [gentoo-user] Network lost after update - solution.

Perhaps doing an emerge baselayout and then etc-update without paying

/etc/modules.d/modules.net. That sounds like the most likely explanation 
to me, at least.

Hi,

strange happening: after my last Gentoo update the network setting

SIOCSIFADDR: No such device
etho: unknown interface: No such device
SIOCSIFBRDADDR: No such device
etho: unknown interface: No such device
SIOCSIFNETMASK: No such device

Problem was that there was no eth0 entry in /etc/modules.conf

Solution was to

1. Create this file:

/etc/modules.d/modules.net

2. Make it have this content:

alias eth0 8139too

3. Call this helper script to get the new alias into modules.conf:

modules-update

OK, then /etc/init.d/net.eth0 start worked fine, but the question
remains: How could that happen?
What might I have done wrong during the update process that could have 
lead to me loosing the eth0 alias in the /etc/modules.conf file?

[gentoo-user] rsync daemon logs alot

2003-09-18 Thread Andreas Vinsander
Hi!
I have setup one of our local hosts to be a gentoo rsync-mirror, for use 
within our private network.

My problem is that the rsync daemon (on the server) logs so much when 
one of the clients syncs against it, that the sync is halted until I 
restart the metalog daemon.
Every process using the syslog facilities are halted the same way when 
this happens = effectively locking all access to the machine if I didn't 
happen to have a shell open on the server where I can restart the 
metalog daemon.

What possibilities do I have?
* Silencing the rsync daemon. How?
* Switching to another syslog daemon. Which one?
* Anything else?

[gentoo-user] Problems with Gnome

2003-09-18 Thread Peter McCracken
Hello,

I have a couple problems with Gnome that I was wondering if I could get
help with.

I recently upgraded to Gnome 2.4, and also did an emerge -u world. 
Since then, it seems any Gnome apps I compile crash on startup (right
now, it includes at least galeon, totem and gnomemeeting), but the apps
that I haven't recompiled still work well.

Galeon and totem give me the following error on startup:
(galeon-bin:15259): Gdk-CRITICAL **: file gdkdisplay-x11.c: line 432
(gdk_display_pointer_ungrab): assertion `GDK_IS_DISPLAY (display)'
failed
 
(galeon-bin:15259): Gdk-CRITICAL **: file gdkdisplay-x11.c: line 476
(gdk_display_keyboard_ungrab): assertion `GDK_IS_DISPLAY (display)'
failed


And gnomemeeting gives me:
(process:21807): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: gtype.c:1871: initialization
assertion failed, use g_type_init() prior to this function
 
(process:21807): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: gtype.c:1911: initialization

(process:21807): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: file gobject.c: line 615
(g_object_new): assertion `G_TYPE_IS_OBJECT (object_type)' failed

This leads me to believe it might be a problem with gdk-pixbuf, but any
attempts to compile any version of gdk-pixbuf always fail (I'm not sure
where to get a more detailed report on the crash, but I'll gladly report
more information on this if someone lets me know).

Has anyone seen anything like this before?  Any suggestions?

Also (and I'm not sure if this is related to the above problem) but
every time I attempt to compile guile-1.6.4 it also results in failure.

Thanks for any help,
-Peter

[gentoo-user] baselayout merge failed?

2003-09-18 Thread Andreas Vinsander
Hi!

When mergeing baselayout I got the following problem:

The ebuild tries to copy a '.keep' file to my /home filesys.
The thing is that I automount each user directory (/home/someuser) 
from my server, which means that /home is not writable by anybody.

When doing emerge -up baselayout it states that i don't need to update 
anything, so it appears that the emerge did what it should anyway... I'm 
a bit confused...

What can/should I do?

Did the original update give you any errors? If not, you're fine. The 
.keep file is just there so that if the package that owns that dir is 
ever unmerged for some reason, which baselayout would not ever be, that 
particular directory that holds the .keep file will not be removed.

[gentoo-user] problem with new kernel

I just compiled gentoo sources 2.4.20-r7. First time through the

anything useful. I whipped out the digital camera and snapped the 
screen where it died. I'll attempt to show what was there below:

 Hi!
 I have setup one of our local hosts to be a gentoo rsync-mirror, for use

 My problem is that the rsync daemon (on the server) logs so much when
 one of the clients syncs against it, that the sync is halted until I
 restart the metalog daemon.
 Every process using the syslog facilities are halted the same way when
 this happens = effectively locking all access to the machine if I didn't
 happen to have a shell open on the server where I can restart the
 metalog daemon.

 What possibilities do I have?
 * Silencing the rsync daemon. How?
 * Switching to another syslog daemon. Which one?
 * Anything else?

/etc/rsync/rsyncd.conf
transfer logging = no

It'll only log the connections after that.

[gentoo-user] Console Shut down monitor

All,

I have been looking around for a way to shutdown the monitor after x minutes of 
activity.. Right now console blanks the monitor but the monitor is still 'on'. 
Obviously in X it supports turning the monitor off via the screen saver. But I don't 
have X.. I have looked at apmd and so forth and they talk about shutting down hard 
drives and such, but nothing about the monitor..


Did I miss something?? I even looked into some of the configuration files and it 
didn't say a thing about a monitor..

Any ideas??

While you are absolutely right about the 'S' you made a mistake
concerning the other names, just type

   man X

and you will see:


   The X Consortium requests that the following  names  be  used
   when 
   referring to this software:

X
 X Window System
  X Version 11
   X Window System, Version 11
   X11


This means X may *not* be called XWindow either.

It should be as simple as compiling it into the kernel rather than as a 
module.. like when you make menuconfig, just make sure the option shows up as

RE: [gentoo-user] SCSI module loading problem

2003-09-18 Thread Jeffrey Smelser
You have three options

1. You must recompile the driver not to be a module. This is your best choice..

2. If not, then your going to have to build a initrd. I guess gentoo has a buildkernel 
script that does this and works pretty good. But I have never used it,,, yet.. :)

3. The only way you can get around this is have a root partition on ide and load the 
modules up for the rest of the drives.. 

I am sure there are others but it gets kinda wacky.. :)
 
Either option is good, 1 would be the easiest since you just have to get into kernel 
config and change it from module to internal.  3 is just silly but it will work.. I 
have done it before when a drive I had on a old computer wouldn't boot right and 
didn't want to have a floppy in it all the time. I don't like throwing drives out when 
they work.. :)

 All,

 I have been looking around for a way to shutdown the monitor after x

 so forth and they talk about shutting down hard drives and such, but
 nothing about the monitor..

 Did I miss something?? I even looked into some of the configuration
 files and it didn't say a thing about a monitor..

Do you have APM or ACPI compiled into your kernel?  If you have APM,
there's an option to enable monitor blanking.  I'm not sure if there's any
particular option for ACPI.  But if you don't have power management, you
won't be able to shut down the monitor.  This is a kernel-level thing, no
other daemons are necessary.

And of course your monitor must support this.

Re: [gentoo-user] SCSI module loading problem

2003-09-18 Thread beharri
I tried to recompile the kernel from my working system (SuSE 8.1), but no luck.

I tried to make a boot floppy during the initial creation of Gentoo, but I guess the 
kernel is too big, and I did not discover the boot floppy did not work until I 
rebooted and needed it.

It seems my only option is to reinstall Gentoo again and start over since menuconfig 
or genkernel wont from my working Linux. But is there another way?

FYI, I hope to make a permante switch from SuSE to Gentoo. SuSE 8.1 worked great with 
my dual Athlon SCSI system, but 8.2 is broken, it wont load my SCSI driver, but 8.1 
did. Go figure. Gentoo did detect it and created the partitions during install.

Hi Bruce,

compiling the kernel from your suse system is the wrong way, from my 
point of view.

just boot with the gentoo cd and enter the chroot environment, like you 
did before. now you can recompile your kernel without reinstalling gentoo.

Erm, the power of chroot negates almost all need to reinstall.
Once you've chroot'd into your gentoo install from Suse, Suse doesn't exist 
anymore and you are using gentoo.

Just boot into Suse, mount the partitions, chroot in and recompile the kernel, 
as per the installation instructions.

 I've also rolled gcc back to 3.3.1-r1 and recomplied glib, and the error

 I will appreciate any suggestions.

Try emerge -uDp world and check out any downgrades it shows. There's got to be 
a reason that whatever package wants to be downgraded. Find out those reasons

Add an equal sign, so that it reads =net-www/apache-1.3.28. You can also
use other relational operators, so to install the latest 1.x version of
apache you can use emerge \net-www/apache-2 (the backslash is necessary
to escape the  for bash).

 emerge to force an emerge of an older version, but it's not liking
it.

 I must be doing something stupid, so I appeal to the list for a  
hand
 here...

 emerge -u net-www/apache-1.3.28

 Doesn't work.

 What'd I miss...?

Add an equal sign, so that it reads =net-www/apache-1.3.28. You can
also
use other relational operators, so to install the latest 1.x version
of
apache you can use emerge \net-www/apache-2 (the backslash is
necessary
to escape the  for bash).
To keep the 2.x version of apache from installing when you do a -u  
world, you can make the /etc/portage directory, and then:
echo =net-www/apache-2  /etc/portage/package.mask

Re: [gentoo-user] dual-head setup

 I just installed a 2nd video card in my box and hooked up a 2nd monitor. 
 Now, what cool things can I do? :) I was thinking about using the 2nd 
 monitor to extend my X desktop, but I don't know if that will work. My 
 primary is a nice 17 that I run at 1024x768. The 2nd one is a wimpy 15 
 that can do 1024x768 but looks much better at 800x600. Can you mix and 
 match resolutions like that?

Yes, but it can get very messy. There are three ways I know of to have X
deal with multiple monitors -- one is to run X on just one of them (and
ignore the others), another is to have it use them as separate screens
(which few programs truly support), and a third is to use Xinerama.

Xinerama merges multiple monitors to make them appear like one big one.
The problem is that differing resolutions act strangely -- they'll
create a dead space. For example:

+-+ ? ? ? ? ? ?
| |? ? ? ? ? ?
| +---+
|  1024x768   |   |
| |  800x600  |
| |   |
+-+---+

Note that some dead space exists above the smaller monitor. Windows
can exist in this space -- in some cases, your WM will even *place*
windows there -- but it won't appear on any of your monitors. And it'll
probably interact strangely with graphic acceleration.

I'd advise you to just dump the second monitor and run the first at a
higher resolution ;-) I run my 19 at 1600x1200 and use big fonts. Works
For Me.

Re: [gentoo-user] Console Shut down monitor

  Did I miss something?? I even looked into some of the configuration

 Do you have APM or ACPI compiled into your kernel?  If you have APM,
 there's an option to enable monitor blanking.  I'm not sure if there's any
 particular option for ACPI.  But if you don't have power management, you
 won't be able to shut down the monitor.  This is a kernel-level thing, no
 other daemons are necessary.
 
 And of course your monitor must support this.

(Not a reply really, but related).

Does anyone know of any good howtos for setting up Xinerama on a
dual-head Radeon 8500?  (Yes I've tried Google, and it's helped but
obviously not completely) My config works once in a while, but obviously
isn't quite correct because it doesn't always work, and never has worked
as expected (i.e. I've not been able to correctly get the correct
monitor to be monitor 1, monitor 2, etc., plus it's messed up stuff like
fonts so that I have to switch between 6 and 8 pt. all the time)

Monitor0 is a Sony MultiscanG200, plugged into the DVI port with the
little VGA-DVI adapter and generally it's worked fine despite config
file changes.  Monitor1 is a Dell D1025TM, plugged into the VGA, and
whatever I do to change the config file it gives me an 'OUT OF  SCAN
RANGE' error.  Any help y'all can give me is much appreciated- rare that
something works so easily in Windows but gives me all this Linux
trouble... :(

Also, does anyone know if DRI is supported with Xinerama on the Radeons
in any of the XFree snapshots or in CVS?  Not really necessary, because
I can just switch to singlehead to game, but it would be nice to not
have to do that.
