Re: [gentoo-ppc-user] date and time set to April 1976
No, the battery is not dead - I've keeped the computer unplugged for hours a number of times, and time was still passing, moving from April 10th to April 11th and so on. What happened was I never gave a chance to the hardware clock to get back to 2006, after I resetted it to 1976 by zapping the PRAM and NVRAM. But then after people from this mailing list kindly told me how to set hardware clock to system time, the clock was back to 2006 at last. So this problem is solved for good :-) Cheers, Y-Lan Bartosz Zaród [EMAIL PROTECTED] a écrit: On 2006-02-14, at 20:19, Y-Lan Boureau wrote: Thanks everyone :-)) My system date is back to 2006 !

I'll try to translate it, please forgive (or correct) any mistake, see inline2006/2/11, Rafael Fernández López [EMAIL PROTECTED]: -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-Hash: SHA1Buenas, Hi there Pues esta vez no escribo porque tenga ninguna duda, ni porque tenga algún problema relacionado con mi sistema. Sencillamente, escribo porquequiero mostrar mi agradecimiento a todas las personas que hacen posibleun sistema como es Gentoo GNU/Linux, que brindan su esfuerzo y tiempo libres en poder permitir que todos seamos iguales y que lo que nosdiferencie no sea el dinero, sino las ganas de conocer y de aprender,una curva maravillosa.This time I post neither because I have any doubt nor because I have any problem related with my system. I simply write because I want to show my gratitude to all those people that make possible a system like Gentoo GNU/Linux, people who offer their effort and spare time to help us to be equal and only being different not on our money but only on our interest in knowledge and learning, a wonderful curve. Desde hace tiempo vengo defendiendo muy fuertemente todo el pensamiento GPL así como las licencias CC (Creative Commons). ¿Por qué puedo teneryo un libro que valga 80 euros [y tener acceso a ese conocimiento] yalguien que no tenga esos 80 euros no pueda tener acceso nunca a esa información? El conocimiento es un bien común, que interesa se expanda,y que se debe compartir, sin apartar a nadie del acceso al mismo.Dejemos que el conocimiento se expanda y nos inunde a todos, es algo quenos beneficia de lejos. Since some time ago I've been strongly supporting all the GPL philosophy as well as CC (Creative Commons) licenses. ¿Why can I have a 80 euros book (and have access to that knowledge) while somebody without those 80 euros will never be able to access that information? Knowledge is a shared good, something that should spread and be shared, without moving anybody away from it. Let the knowledge spread and flood us all, that's something that is clearly beneficial. El tiempo nos ha dado la razón. Un sistema privativo no es más seguro por el hecho de tener el código oculto [de hecho se ha comprobadoexperimentalmente xD]. Se han podido desarrollar sistemas como Samba oWine, que sin saber nada a priori [sobre el código] se ha permitidoemular, otro punto a favor de las mentes abiertas. Time has proven us right. A privative system is not more secure just for having hidden code (this has even been proved experimentally xD). Systems like Samba or Wine have been developed without any prior knowledge of the system to emulate, another success of open minds. En definitiva quiero agradecer a todas las personas que se toman un minuto para ayudar a otros con su conocimiento, por escaso que sea.Quiero agradecer a todos los developers que se preocupan de que lo quetienen entre manos sea de una calidad como lo que todos nosotros tenemos instalados en nuestro disco duro, y también quiero agradecer cómo no almaestro Robbins su genial idea de un sistema tan particular como Gentoo.In short I want to thank all those people that take a minute of their time to help others with their knowledge, even if that knowledge falls short. I want to thank all those developers that work to have a quality product to be installed in our computers, and I also want to thank master Robbins for such a great idea of a system like Gentoo. Como última nota, es como un sentimiento que tengo acerca de Gentoo, no se si lo compartiréis. Me ocurre con Gentoo y LFS (Linux From Scratch).¿Por qué Gentoo y no Debian u otra distro? Porque para mí es como ir aun restaurante y que me sirvan el vino en la mesa, que lo abran delante mía. Es una cuestión de educación. Prefiero que mi sistema se baje elcódigo, aplique parches (según directivas que YO controle, y nadie más),y me cree la aplicación a mi medida. Para mí un sistema de paquetes binarios es como que abran la botella de vino en la cocina.Finally, I want to share my feeling about Gentoo, maybe you feel something similar. Gentoo and LFS (Linux From Scratch) make me feel this way. Why Gentoo and not Debian or whatever else? For me it's kind of going to a restaurant and having the wine served at my table, opening the bottle in my presence. It's a question of being polite. I prefer that my system downloads the code, applies patches (using guidelines *I* control, and nobody else), and creates the application that fits my needs. For me a binary package system is like opening the bottle at the kitchen.

Remove more.
I suspect that's an ext{2,3} filesystem, which has, by default, 5% set aside
for use only by the superuser. You've gone into that 5%, and 500MB isn't
enough to get you out, hence it still appears 100% full.

OK, good info - but what can I remove? Or more important how can I
find what's talking up too much space. /home, /usr/portage and /var
are on partitions of their own. There is about 200MB of Java stuff in
/opt and I deleted everything in /tmp before I wrote the first note.
I do appear to have about 250MB of KDE stuff in /usr/kde. We don't use
KDE but there are some KDE type apps, like k3b, on this machine.
I have about 1.1GB in /usr/lib but I wouldn't know how to touch that by hand.
/usr/share has about 850MB in it. Again, I wouldn't know how to touch
that by hand.
I appear to have kdebase, kdelibs, kdebase-pam and kde-env installed.
Which of those could come out without causing major problems for a
non-KDE user? (I did install KDE about a month ago, just to try it
out, but we don't use it. I suppose I could remove them all and then
go through a revdep-rebuild process...
The issue here is that this machine is both my wife's desktop machine
as well as our MythTV backend server. There is no video on the
machine. It's kept elsewhere on an NFS mount, but MythTV has stopped
working and the best guess the Myth folks had so far was lack of disk
space. When I first looked the machine was very full, but now with the
current clear space it's still having troubles.

Well the first thing you need to do, is run a 'df' and see which
partitions are full. Then used these tools to find files by size and
date. Let's assume we're talking about /usr/portage/distfiles
for example:
REMOVING LARGE FILES IN /usr/portage/distfiles
find ./ -size +10 -exec ls -lag {} \; | less lists large files
find ./ -size +10 -print -exec rm {} \; prints removes large files
You can then changethe size and work your way down.
Now let's look at old files in /usr/portage/disfiles
REMOVING OLD FILES IN /usr/protage/distfiles
find ./ -mtime +180 -exec ls -lag {} \; | less
find ./ -mtime +180 -print -exec rm {} \;
It really helps if you do this a the 90% point, and avoid
sluggish behavior.
Look at /home too. If you have one big partition, as recommended
in the handbook then removing any files will help.
/usr/src/* is another place to remove kernel sources, similarly,
/boot/
Be cautions!

I felt Gentoo would be my best shot at using and enjoying a Linux distribution for my desktop, as Gentoo promises a lot of freedom and choice. All up its pretty darn good but I have to say I am a bit disappointed with the Tomcat/Apache/Java choices Gentoo portage has to offer. The main reason I am interested in Gentoo Linux was the fact I can use a Java supplied from Sun as an alternative to some of the FreeBSD native Java compiled via ports with Tomcat. I have servers running under Apache2.0.55 and Apache2.2.0 with Tomcat 5.5.x My main problems are there is not a full set of choices of Apache that being just 1.3.x or Apache 2.0.x and no Apache 2.2.x. Apache 2.2.x has some great new features like a built in AJP module for linking Tomcat and Apache together with out needing the external mod_ajp module.

Re: [gentoo-user] Ethernet Module (3c59x) not recognized
The make module_install command installs the modules into /lib/modules/2.x.xx/. Search for your file into this directory instead of into the sources directory. If you can't find it, go to /lib/modules/2.x.xx/ and browse to see if there is some modules. If you find some, then you should probably have forgotten to enable the compilation of the 3c59x module, or you have included it directly into the kernel.

James wrote:
Mark Knecht markknecht at gmail.com writes:
OK, good info - but what can I remove? Or more important how can I
find what's talking up too much space. /home, /usr/portage and /var
are on partitions of their own. There is about 200MB of Java stuff in
/opt and I deleted everything in /tmp before I wrote the first note.
The first question to ask is Did it fill up slowly or has it filled up
fairly quickly? If it was quick, chances are a runaway process did
something, like write a big coredump, a log which filled up due to
errors, a file copy that didn't fit, stuff like that.
Now you mention that the most likely point for that trouble are
accounted for (/tmp, /var). You also mention you use MythTV over the
network. So I would look at the (NFS?) mountpoint first; it happened to
me that the share wasn't mounted, and mythtv then happily fills up the
partition on which the mountpoint resides, ie. /.
So run a 'du -s' on /mnt/* (if that is your mountpoint) after unmounting
all network shares (a mounted dir can hide a file!).
Next, run du -s on the files and dirs in /root/. Maybe logging or cache
was written there (don't forget the dot-entries!)
Also, look into /usr/src and remove sources you can miss.
If nothing helps there, you best run a 'du -s /*' but you better umount
everything that isn't essential first. And even then, it's slw...
In the case it filled up slowly you are worse off. You then know you
have to remove stuff you may need instead of just finding 'the culprit'.
Look carefully into the entire tree and decide what you need and what
you can do without. Likely candidates are Howtos and such, but they
reside under /usr/share so it's likely they aren't on your / filesystem.
They are small, too, so you don't gain that much.
One you have space, you can gain much more by gzipping stuff (especially
mysqldumps, logs, etc) but as you stated /var is on it's own partition I
fear there will not be much to gzip anyway...
One last remark: It happened to me on occasion that a filesystem keeps
at 100% full until you reboot the box. It may be that a process still
has files open, or that an fsck is in order, or whatever. This is the
reason you should never let / fill up; it doesn't always recover very
gracefully, at least that has been my experience. I still have to guess
at the exact reason that stays-at-100% happens, if anyone can explain...
Good luck,
Maarten
Well the first thing you need to do, is run a 'df' and see which
partitions are full. Then used these tools to find files by size and
date. Let's assume we're talking about /usr/portage/distfiles
for example:
REMOVING LARGE FILES IN /usr/portage/distfiles
find ./ -size +10 -exec ls -lag {} \; | less lists large files
find ./ -size +10 -print -exec rm {} \; prints removes large files
You can then changethe size and work your way down.
Now let's look at old files in /usr/portage/disfiles
REMOVING OLD FILES IN /usr/protage/distfiles
find ./ -mtime +180 -exec ls -lag {} \; | less
find ./ -mtime +180 -print -exec rm {} \;
It really helps if you do this a the 90% point, and avoid
sluggish behavior.
Look at /home too. If you have one big partition, as recommended
in the handbook then removing any files will help.
/usr/src/* is another place to remove kernel sources, similarly,
/boot/
Be cautions!

Could be done via (hardened + pic IIRC) using normal system profile or w/o any special USE-flags, when using a hardened profile. Check the output of: gcc-config -l (what profile is GCC using) and switch to vanilla. Hope your toolchain isn't recompiled too. IIRC 'hardened-php' isn't part of a real hardened system (you must be using a hardened kernel too - hardened|selinux|rsbac-sources) it's only a hardening patch for PHP.

I don't have currently syslog-ng running, but I think I remember that
similar configuration was in /etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf (maybe
commented out?)
Yes, it was commented out as the default setting is to send everything to
tty12:
# By default messages are logged to tty12...
#destination console_all { file(/dev/tty12); };
# ...if you intend to use /dev/console for programs like xconsole
# you can comment out the destination line above that references /dev/tty12
# and uncomment the line below.
destination console_all { file(/dev/console); };
So, now I've uncommented it but every single message is shown not only in
xconsole (which is fine), but in tty1 as well. The latter makes the boot
up messages look very messy indeed.
I don't know if I am asking too much here, but is there a way to:
1. Continue with all messages shown in tty12 as per default syslog-ng
configuration.
2. Also show all/some messages to xconsole.
3. Do not pipe everything to console during/after boot - the default
messages there are adequate for my liking.
Perhaps I am a bit confused: what is the relationship between /dev/console
and xconsole?

[gentoo-user] Konqueror as an FTP Client
Hey, I'm trying to use Konqueror as an FTP client; problem is that it'll start uploading files but then my FTP server will close the connection and then refuse any future attempts to connect from my system for a period of time. This doesn't happen on my Windows box. My initial thoughts are that Konqueror is opening too many simultaneous connections and the FTP Site doesn't like it.

[gentoo-user] OT: phpmyadmin
I am just starting to play with php and mysql. I've got mysql working and can log into root accounts using a password. php scripts work on http://localhost. For example, http://localhost/php/index.php in a browser shows a whole lot of info re php, mysql and apache2. However, I can't seem to get phpmyadmin working. Going to http://localhost/phpmyadmin, gives me a window asking for username and password. If I insert my mysql username (root) and root's mysql password, I just get the same box with no error. I've tried adding a small config.inc.php file to /var/www/localhost/htdocs that is configured like so ?php $cfg['PmaAbsoluteUri'] = 'http://localhost/phpmyadmin/'; $cfg['Servers'][$i]['host'] = 'MySQL.localhost'; $cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] = 'config'; $cfg['Servers'][$i]['user'] = 'root'; $cfg['Servers'][$i]['password'] = 'password'; $cfg['blowfish_secret'] = '1234'; ? I restarted mysql and apache2 and still no joy Obviously, I'm missing something, but I can't find anything after many hours of searching that points me in the right direction.

[gentoo-user] Setting time in middle of session
I've had to temporarily switch to dial-up from a broadband connection and of course /etc/init.d/ntp-client fails since a connection is not available on boot-up. I have tried manually executing this but it has occurred to me that setting the time in the middle of a session may not be a good idea. Any thoughts? If not, how should I set the time.
