You will really need the noauto option, and probably want user if you don't want to have to be root to mount it. 5.) And as far as my USB key is concerned, FAT32 is slow and unjournaled. It sucks. ReiserFS is the greatest thing since NTFS as far as I'm concerned, and I'd like to use that on my USB key, since it's speedy, journaled and space-efficient. Are there Windows/Mac OS 9/Mac OS X plugins for ReiserFS? I'd like to put a small FAT partition on my key with just the plugins and a Reiser partition spanning the rest for my data. Not AFAIK. There are some userspace read-only utilities for ext2 (and ext3), but nothing for reiserfs. Your best bet is probably fat32 (or my preference, vfat). BTW, even 'high-speed' USB disk keys can only transfer at ~9MB/sec, and seek time is nil for flash, so it doesn't really make sense to talk about a 'high performance' filesystem for a USB disk key, IMO. -Richard -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

[gentoo-user] Swappiness and Virtual Memory Management
I've got a question regarding VM management in Linux. I've got 512MB of RAM on my laptop and at times it can still be slow esp when the RAM is used up and starts accessing the swap. Setting swappiness to 10 doesn't really make a difference at all. However, (what I've heard) users of FreeBSD has attested that hitting swap on those BSD system does not make any noticeable effect on their system. Even when there's up to like 700MB of swap in use. On Linux, it seems that the opposite is true, when we hit swap, and then the disk starts to thrash violently and I get slow load-up of programs and even switching between virtual Desktops can be a real pain. Does anyone has more insight to this? I know the solution is to add more RAM but is that really a solution?

Using buildpkg in FEATURES means you always have the older version of a package to roll back to. This was covered is some detail in here in the last week or so.

[gentoo-user] WOT: Constricing Video Bandwith
Hello, WOT (Way Off Topic) I decided to post here (risking flames) because many of the participants here are working on video implementations. I'm focused on Bandwith Minimization for video transmission over wide area networks. Futhermore, although I still have Debian and OpenBSD systems around me, I'm doing all of my newest work on Gentoo (yes I'm uncurable infected) Finding and testing cameras which acutally use very little bandwith, is a challenge. Furthermore, making adjustments to the equipment (cameras, encoders, software) is also obscure. What I'm specifically looking for is ways to test and verify that a given camera actually needs less than 30 kbps or 20kbps, for a given video stream. Working with Ethernet (either accurately measuring or constricting) has been problematic. Discussions with others seem to confirm this. I know there are new mechanisms in the 2.6 kernel series for such hacking, but, I'm looking for something I can use quickly. So I'm now going to sink some time into setting up ppp over a serial connection (ether synchronous or asynchronous). Asyncronous, like RS232 uses start and stop bits, so for every 7/8 bits of data you transmit, you have the overhead of 1/2 stop bits. Synchronous uses external clocking, so the overhead of start and stop bits is eliminated. Duplex issues are really minimal, since the cameras' and encoders' data output is one way, so half duplex is just fine. If I set an async serial port to 38.4 it's roughly equivalent to a 30kbps synchronous half duplex circuit(???). Later I can set the serial ports to 28.8 and then 19.2 kbps for refinement of test vectors. What I'm trying to do is set up ppp between two gentoo systems running ppp over a RS232 serial ports, set at 38.4, 8N1, so that a vendor can bring in their equipment and show it running H.264 video across the link. There will be 2 Ethernet switches connected to each dual Ethernet gentoo system (and NAT) and nothing else running on these sytems. The thinking is if their equipment works across this test link, then it's worth testing over 56kbps frame relay links that have 32k CIR (that is a synchronous port speed of 32 kbps). Has anyone tried anything like this? Any suggestions as to tweaking the ppp configuration/stack to to minimize overhead and latency? Any discussion or suggestion is most welcome. Is there an easier test methodology? confused and alone, James -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

To be honest, alsaconf needs not to be fixed but rewritten. Why? * It still can handle ISA cards * It growed over the time, and the code is now a bit unreadable and unflexible * it can only create a new configuration, but it cannot read and edit an existing one * it cannot handle USB cards * it cannot deal with asoundrc which is needed to set a default soundcard and doing card ordering * ... Unfortunately I'm not enough a programmer, but if I was I'd do it. Please note that this is no alsaconf bashing. It has done a great job over the years, but meanwhile it needs a replacement.

[gentoo-user] Freevo + FrameBuffer + Splash
It seems that on 2005.0 install, I can't have the 3 of these together like I did when I was running on 2004.3. The difference is the usage of devpts vs udev. Since 2005.0 is udev, to get gen/fbsplash to work, I need to pass vga=7xx to the kernel command line. passing video=vesafb:ywrap,[EMAIL PROTECTED] splash=silent,theme:livecd-2005.0 doesn't seem to have any effect at all. I've tried both vesafb as well as using vesafb-tng and both fails. With VGA=7xx passed, I get splash but Freevo won't come up. (and neither will startx work) as it complains about not being able to find DISPLAY and default to using fbdev. (On occations in which it does comes up it doesn't stretch the display to fullscreen!) Without the VGA=7xx line, then I don't get the splash screen at all but freevo will start with no issues. So.. what is the middle ground and how can I solve this? does anyone know???
