[gentoo-user] Re: Cant track down problem / xorg related - SOLVED

2005-08-06 Thread Martins Steinbergs
Hi again

Sometimes sending message to list puts brainwork and luck to the new level.
problem was in /etc/fonts/  From some time there should be conf file named 
local.conf and my mistake was to left old fonts.conf there.

thanx to e17 (just emerged), console and opera combination that allowed me to 
see huge fontconfig complaints

Well I found what was missing: 

Looking at the two necessary modules for kino:
/dev/raw/raw1394 is in group disk, while /dev/dv1394-0 is in group root;
(is this a feature of the gentoo installation?)

I put /dev/dv1394-0 in the disk group as well and now everything seems to
be ok, unless there might be some side effect(s)?

cheers,

Try starting mplayer from a console and see what output you get when it loads 
the movie. That should give you a hint. Look for this:

Essentially, Updating pci.ids is doing a `wget' in the background,
you can run `ps aux' to verify this.  So, you have to make sure that
wget could reach its desired destination.

Ah, that makes sense. I've been working on a stage 1 install, and my
internet connection's been kinda shaky on my all evening. wgets
haven't been working for me very well, so I guess I could try getting
the package from elsewhere (the packages CD, maybe).

Thank you very much :)

 Not without knowing at what point the boot fails.

 What is the error you're getting, and at what point after selecting the
 Gentoo entry?
root (hd1,2)
Filesystem type is ext2fs partition type 0x83
kernel /kernel-2.6.12-r6 root=/dev/sdb2 acpi=off
[Linux-bzImage, setup=0x1200, size=0x165a46]
(and here it hangs, no more activity)

 Secondly, you have only one separate boot partition? Meaning that the
 SuSE /boot folder is on the SuSE partition?
For the Gentoo installation /boot is on it's own partition, for the SuSE /boot 
is on the / partition.

 That might be your problem-- since that would mean that you've got
 possibly two installs of GRUB (one in the SuSE /boot folder and one in
 the Gentoo /boot partition).

 So you've got to wonder which one is running. At least I did.
Yes there are two installs of GRUB but only the Gentoo one is used. I can see 
that on the release numbers (Gentoo 0.96, SuSE 0.93) and that the right 
grub.conf (menu.lst) is shown when I boot (Only the Gentoo one has entries 
for Gentoo). 


 I also dual-boot SuSE and Gentoo (SuSE is my fallback in case I break
 Gentoo so badly that I need to use something else to fix it), and what I
 did (since I 'really' use the Gentoo GRUB, and the Gentoo /boot
 partition) was to copy the SuSE kernel (and System Map, and config) to
 my Gentoo /boot folder.

 Perhaps you need to do that in reverse (copy the compiled kernel and
 related files to your SuSE /boot folder).
I don't think this should be necessary as GRUB do find the file containing the 
kernel.

I've also tried the doscsi boot option as suggested in an other reply but this 
did not help.

Re: [gentoo-user] Whats wrong with my grub.conf

2005-08-06 Thread Heinz Sporn
Hi!

Whenever someone has Grub problems it'd be a good idea to not only post
grub.conf but more importantly infos about the disk layouts (and fstab
to round it up).

In your case there seems to be a couple of things to verify.

I assume that Grub didn't come up with its initial dialog? That usually
means that it couldn't find /boot/grub/grub.conf using it's stage
drivers in /boot/grub.

With root (hd0,1) you force Grub to load an OS from the second partition
of your first physical disk. Does /dev/hda4 reflect this situation?

So in short: you have to tell Grub where to find /boot/grub/grub.conf

But for detailed forensics I'd need more intel.

Regards

[gentoo-user] How does cisco vpnclient find its .pcf file?

2005-08-06 Thread W.Kenworthy
I have just installed the cisco vpn client and cant figure how it
accesses the .pcf configs under gentoo.  Can someone in the know tell me
how to specify a .pcf when issuing a /etc/init.d/vpnclient start ?
Where I work has given me a couple of different configs depending where
I access from, but the install cant seem to find them if I put them
in /etc/CiscoSystemsVPNClient/Profiles (and how would it choose one from
multiple profiles?).

There wouldn't be a point doing so. This just loads the kernel module,
it doesn't setablish a connection at that point.

You have to connect using vpnclient itself. You can specify the profile
then. It's vpnclient connect profilename if I remember correctly (for
profilename.pcf). The kernel module just cares for packet injection in
Linux's ip stack and brings a IPsec stack.

Note that there's a more elegant solution with vpnc (also in
portage), if it fits for you (still hasn't some functions of Cisco's
client, but it's free and you don't have to use a binary proprietary
kernel module).

If you posted the error message and some details of your partitioning,

Put them in here, then env-update will add them to /etc/profile. If you

dd is fine, if very slow, when the target partition is larger than the

C.Beamer [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

 Now for the question.  I need confirmation of my understanding.  In
 the make.conf file when setting up the USE flags, I include anything
 that I want to have compiled into the programs that I install,
 correct?  If I don't want an option to be compiled in all programs, I
 prefix that with a - sign.  If I want an option for a specific
 package, I use the package.use file.
 

As Willie and Mark stated, I'll add a - sort of.

 So, if I don't want to compile gnome, then I use -gnome as one of the
 keywords.  I don't use gnome, never have, never will, but there are
 gnome applications that I like - gnumeric to name one, plus there are
 a few gnome games.  So, is it my best bet to include -gnome as a
 keyword in my make.conf USE statement and the add it in the
 package.use file for those applications that need it?
 

I'm pretty much with you on using gnumeric and not gnome.  Same with 
kworldclock but not kde.  And I started out using - -gnome and -kde.  But
have just stopped the practice.  I just use -* at the beginning of my USE
flags and select all the things I do want.

The problem with -* is it makes everything minimal so you have to spend a
lot of time adding in the things you want.  To me that's preferable to getting
a lot of what I don't want tagging along.  Also, it insure that PAM stays off
my system.

I don't see dv1394 in the udev rules.  That doesn't seem to have made it

 I put /dev/dv1394-0 in the disk group as well and now everything seems to

It should be no problem.  Technically, it would go into group - video.

 fire up vim or your favourite editor and edit pppoe.conf

[gentoo-user] Problem while doing `emerge --emptytree system

2005-08-06 Thread Jason Castonguay
Hi listers.

I'm in the process of installing gentoo for the first time and am now in
the process of going from stage 2 to stage 3.  I am trying to do

emerge --emptytree system

It seems to be fine until it gets to installing openssl (14 of 186 apps
to be installed).  The process stops and says that perl 5 is required.
This is understandable, but I thought emerge was supposed to be aware of
this sort of thing and install apps in the correct order.  I did a

emerge --pretend --emptytree system |less

and perl 5 is there, but further down the list of things to be installed
(after openssl).

What should I do -- install perl separately?  Any thoughts and/or
suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks very much.

A few things look odd to me:

1. Isn't (hd1,2) the same device as /dev/sdb2?  It looks like your /boot 
and / are the same here...

2. The normal name for the kernel is vmlinuz-  You have kernel-...

So, which partition actually contains /boot?

How are you switching between grub versions?  Important: if you are 
changing the disk boot order in the BIOS, you need to remember that grub 
always defines (hd0) as the currently booting drive...regardless of the 
order of the drives in the system.  So you may need to change everything 
to be (hd0,X).


Can you get to a grub command line, and do a  find /kernel-2.6.12-r6?

With root (hd0,1) you force Grub to load an OS from the second partition
of your first physical disk. Does /dev/hda4 reflect this situation?

So in short: you have to tell Grub where to find /boot/grub/grub.conf

If asked in advance of starting the emerge, I would have
advised you to use nohup.

man nohup



I'm not aware of a way to reconnect with stderr, stdin, and stdout but I know 
that those file descriptors still exist in /proc/${PID}/fd.

Normally, in order to accomplish what you want, I would use app-misc/screen.  
Screen is a very nice solution because you can reattach to an interactive 
terminal whenever you want.

Alternatively, you can redirect the emerge output to a log file:

emerge foo  /var/log/emerge-foo.log 21

emerge gtk-theme-switch
it's used to change the theme outside gnome, and you can change the fonts 
also. it creates a .gtkrc file in your home, and can have some conflicts with

Re: [gentoo-user] alsaconf not setting oss emulation

2005-08-06 Thread Christoph Eckert

 alsaconf from alsa-utils-1.09a is setting up the
 barest /etc/modules.d/alsa file:

 [EMAIL PROTECTED] /etc/modules.d $ cat alsa
 # --- BEGIN: Generated by ALSACONF, do not edit. ---
 # --- ALSACONF version 1.0.9a ---
 options snd  device_mode=0666

 alias sound-slot-0 snd-via82xx
 # --- END: Generated by ALSACONF, do not edit. ---


 As a result the oss emulation modules are not loaded:

 [EMAIL PROTECTED] /etc/modules.d $ lsmod|grep snd
 snd_seq                55312  0

 This behaviour seems to have changed with alsa-utils 1.09a

 Can anyone explain this annoyance?

alsaconf is a very useful but old script.

I don't know if the behaviour has changed, but I guess that 
noone has changed alsaconf itself.

I have the following lines in my modules file:

alias /dev/mixer snd-mixer-oss
alias /dev/dsp snd-pcm-oss
alias /dev/midi snd-seq-oss

AFAIK it is necessary to have OSS emulation enabled in the 
kernel.

[gentoo-user] Re-post:How to get jfs root partition to properly fsck on power failure?

2005-08-06 Thread Aaron Nichols
Hey all, I know somebody here has got to have info that may be of help.
If I'm totally missing something obvious here feel free to beat me to a
pulp - but anything is better than silence :) Since I didn't get any
responses last time I'll try one more time. 

Original message:

Hello Everyone,
 I feel like the answer here should be
obvious, but either my google skills have deteriorated badly, I'm
missing the obvious, or I've just run into a strange problem (which I
doubt). 

I have a Gentoo install with the following filesystem layout (from fstab):

/dev/sda2
/boot
ext3noatime
1 2
/dev/sda6
/
jfs
noatime
1 1
/dev/sda3
noneswapsw0
0
/dev/sda5
/varjfs
noatime
0 2
/dev/sda7
/home
jfs
noatime
0 2


Things work fine under normal circumstances, however if the machine is
powered off uncleanly (power button, power failure, etc) it refuses to
boot. The problem seems to stem from the fact that the root partition
does not get checked prior to mounting. I have the following grub
stanza which boots the system. It includes the ro option which is
supposed to tell the kernel to mount the root partition read-only at
first to perform a fsck. 



title=Gentoo Linux 2.6.12-r6

root (hd0,1)

kernel /kernel-genkernel-x86-2.6.12-gentoo-r6 root=/dev/ram0
init=/linuxrc ramdisk=8192 real_root=/dev/sda6 udev hda=ide-scsi
hde=ide-scsi ro

initrd /initramfs-genkernel-x86-2.6.12-gentoo-r6



When booting this it basicly starts udev, then tries to mount
filesystems and says /dev/sda6 is not a valid partition and drops me
into busybox. 




The way I'm able to recover this is to boot to the live CD, fsck.jfs
/dev/sda6 and then reboot and the remaining filesystems fsck fine and
the system boots. However, one thing I notice is that once / is
unmounted unexpectedly, it cannot be mounted prior to an fsck (get
errors from mount). This seems like a bit of a chicken  egg
situation.



I can't believe this is a unique problem I've stumbled upon - does
anyone have either an obvious answer to this question or some examples
of a working gentoo install using jfs as the root partition (please, no
responses of yeah, works fine for me if you can resist).



I'll happily provide more info as desired - but thought I'd start here. 


Aaron

Hi!

Whenever someone has Grub problems it'd be a good idea to not only post
grub.conf but more importantly infos about the disk layouts (and fstab
to round it up).



   

  

OK, well I have a dual boot with Windows happening here as you
probably can tell. Its all on the one hard drive.

Partition 1 (grub 0)(hda1) = Windows XP (NTFS)
Partition 2 (grub 1)(hda2) = Gentoo /boot (reiserfs)
Partition 3 (grub 2)(hda3) = Linux Swap
Partition 4 (grub 3)(hda4) = Gentoo / (Including /home) (reiserfs)

 



In your case there seems to be a couple of things to verify.

I assume that Grub didn't come up with its initial dialog? 

   

  

Yup, it showed nothing.

 



That usually
means that it couldn't find /boot/grub/grub.conf using it's stage
drivers in /boot/grub.


   

  

Alright, so would I just 'install' it again? This is not an initial
install of grub, how could it lose its configuration file?

 



With root (hd0,1) you force Grub to load an OS from the second partition
of your first physical disk. Does /dev/hda4 reflect this situation?

So in short: you have to tell Grub where to find /boot/grub/grub.conf


   

  

Well, as long as you can tell me how Im OK.

 



But for detailed forensics I'd need more intel.

[gentoo-user] Media players

2005-08-06 Thread Ian K
Hi guys,
[disclaimer] I have a question, that could _potentially_ start a minor
flame war. [/disclaimer]
I personally, really like how Windows Media Player works. It is bloated,
yes, but I like how it
can play so much. It has radio, nice visuals, dvd, etc support. Much
like Xine. Im just wondering,
for a KDE user like me, what else is out there? I know of amaroK and
mplayer, but know little
about them. I would really like radio, and nice video playback. But
also, it needs to have
keybindings. I have a new keyboard with all the nice stuff,
play/pause,stop,next,etc. I want to
use it! :) What else is there? Even a frontend to xine would be nice.
Thanks!
