[gentoo-ppc-user] powerbook 12 lcd+CRT
Hi , I recently got an Apple Powerbook 12 and I being trying to make the videoout to work with the CRT I manage to use the CRT in console mode , but when I go to the X , the xorg start on the laptop monitor and not on the monitor attached any idea why that could be happening ? Is there a way to use them in xinerama ? Also , any news on airport extreme modules ? should I get a usb wireless and what should it be to be safe that it will work on ppc + Gentoo linux. thanks Matias -- gentoo-ppc-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Re: [gentoo-user] eAccelerator/Zend outdated
Hi, Did you check php.ini. Looks to me like there is some mixup between installed versions of PHP. You should not rename eaccelerator.so to mmcache.so. Check php.ini and load the appropiate extensions.

[gentoo-user] most of /usr/portage gone--why? and what now}
This fine morning I awoke to find that in my fairly new gentoo install nearly all of /usr/portage is gone. bash-2.05b# ls -lA /mnt/gentoo-new/usr/portage total 20 drwxrwsr-x 4 root portage 16384 Jul 12 22:10 distfiles drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 Jul 11 23:04 packages bash-2.05b# The distfiles directory has many (appropriate) files and packages has the one package it should. The partition has plenty of room (almost 7GB). I run esync from cron (anacron) when I boot and it failed (see below for the mail sent by anacron) telling me to see emerge-sync.log. Here I see some failures and a statement that a new version of portage is available (again see below). I still have my previous gentoo (using it right now) on a different partition. It started from one of the 2004 profiles, but has been kept up to date until a very few weeks ago when I started cutting over to my new system. I can certainly run an emerge --tree --ask --verbose --newuse --update --deep world but wanted to do as little as possible before asking for advice. My main question is whether I should copy files from the old /usr/portage to the new one or is there better method to proceed. I keep extensive backups of all my files and all of /etc, but do not backup the system files (other than having an older version of gentoo that is kept reasonably up to date).

[gentoo-user] [OT] Routing advice requested
I just installed a T1 to a new ISP using a Sangoma CSU/DSU card. I thought I could use aliased IPs on existing gigE NICS on our LAN to set up the hosts that need an internet routable presence. Maybe that can be done, but not by me. I don't understand enough. I can get it to work on the system with the T1. But not on another computer over the LAN. On the system with the T1, I have a gigE to the LAN, and one of the ISP's IPs for asterisk (as an alias to the T1). That works okay. It worked okay with the ISP's IP as an alias to eth0, too.

It is the IP 216.132.251.227. Traffic internal to our LAN is routed to the computer that has that alias (192.168.1.6). But, traffic coming from the internet gets to 209.101.232.82 and stops according to traceroute. I'm too ignorant to understand why the host route doesn't work for packets coming from the T1 (from the internet), and get sent to the computer that handles that IP. This is the latest in a series of attempts. I've also tried putting the 216.132.251.224 network on the LAN. I've tried using the 216.132.251.227's LAN address (192.168.1.6) as a gateway for the host route. I've tried removing the 216.132.251.224 network route entirely, and just having host routes. What I was hoping to do was have one computer (192.168.1.17) connected to the ISP with a T1, and serve as a router for the ISP's IPs. That would also be connected to the internet with one of the ISP's IPs for use by asterisk (216.132.251.226). This seems to be working okay. I wanted another computer (192.168.1.6) to have an aliased ISP IP (216.132.251.227) that would let that computer also have an internet routable address. This is what I don't seem to be able to do. The computer with the T1 doesn't seem to route packets from the internet to the other computer over our LAN. It does for packets originating from our LAN. But not for packets from the internet. I know my error is going to be obvious to everyone who actually understands this stuff ;) I hope I've given the info to make things clear. I can set up a small Fast enet switch for the ISP's network, I guess. But I was hoping not to need to do that, and add more NICs to the computers that eventually need to be on the internet. But maybe that is what I need to do. Any and all advice (including things to read to decrease my ignorance) appreciated. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Re: [gentoo-user] most of /usr/portage gone--why? and what now}
If files have gone missing first step is fsck the disk just in case. Next emerge sync if it works. (dont use the fancy options until its working again.) Whats esync ?? I wouldnt trust it until you know what happened. You can copy the complete portage from another machine over the top without problems - the rsync part of emerge does just that. If its not to old, just change the profile link if necessary and emerge sync to upgrade. I upgrade portage as the first step after the sync whenever it appears: portage upgrades often change some of the underlying structure (as well as break things ...) There is also a rescue portage hidden somewhere in portage that can also be downloaded - its a tarball of a basic portage with enough bits to rescue a system thats lost its portage all together (I did this once with rm -rf * in /usr/portage !)

Plus, you can swap in a linuxthreads glibc at any time if need be, right? yeah, but problems are known. So there are good reasons NOT to use ntplonly or to advise to use it generally. And if you mean 'reemerge glibc' you are right, you can always 'swap' them around. If you're like me then nptlonly works fine for everything you use. You know that if a hypothetical nptl problem should arise, you have a quick and simple recovery plan. I might not have switched if rollback wasn't so simple.

[gentoo-user] Can't login - needs pam_afs
Yesterday I removed openafs as I haven't used it for ages. However, now I can not login as and the system won't start properly (netmount and those depending on it don't run). I get messages about not being able to find /usr/afsws/pam_afs.so.1 - shared library can not be found. I've googled on this and checked my /etc/pam.d/login file and it does not have any reference to pam_afs nor can I find it anywhere else. I emerged pam again. How do I get the system so it's not looking for the pam_afs file? Thanks. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

I wouldnt trust it until you know what happened. Esync is a part of gentoolkit-- it runs emerge sync and outputs or mails you the updated package list (new and upgradeable packages). It's really not dangerous in and of itself. It also runs eupdatedb, which indexes the packages so that a subsequent esearch package-name goes much faster than emerge --search package-name Isn't what happened that the sync failed before it was able to import the new portage tree, but after it had removed the old one? That is my theory as well Afaics, this is one of those head wound kinda problems (bleeds a lot and looks very scary, but not as serious as it seems at first glance). Great description. Thank you both. I am guessing that the the updating portage cache error is due to the previous failed emerge --sync. Hence I ran an emerge --metadata This succeeded. I then ran eupdatedb which also succeeded. Running both esearch portage and emerge --ask portage showed that portage was up to date so I then proceeded to emerge --tree --ask --verbose --newuse --update --deep world which showed firefox, glibc, and a few others.
