[gentoo-ppc-user] glPolygonMode rendering problems
Hi, I'm having some problems with a simple OpenGL program (as described here: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-464101.html) which is supposed to render a small red sphere inside a larger wireframe one. It seems that when I switch the order of the OpenGL calls to render them it renders the wireframe sphere as filled. The problem also appears if I run the FOX toolkit glviewer test and set the rendering mode to wireframe. Other OpenGL programs (e.g: glxgears) seem to be fine... Can anyone confirm (or not) that this happens on their system as well, please? Possibly this is a known problem, but I couldn't find any references to it elsewhere on the web. Also, if anyone can suggest a fix, I'd be very grateful. See below for my hardware/software setup. If anyone wants screenshots I'd be happy to provide them.

Re: [gentoo-user] Now Know Why Portage Is So Slow
Forgive my ignorance, but what is RSYNC? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rsync basically, portage use rsync to update the information on packages (ebuilds) in /usr/portage (with emerge --sync) If anything, this is a indicator that I need to try and contribute to the portage project... at least contribute as much as I'm able. you should try the ~x86 version of portage which has many improvements: $ echo sys-apps/portage ~x86 /etc/portage/package.use $ emerge portage you should also know that there is an alternative package manager which will maybe replace portage in the future: paludis. It is still in early development so use it at your own risk. http://paludis.berlios.de/ you can find more info on portage on the new gentoo development guide: http://devmanual.gentoo.org/ -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Re: [gentoo-user] Mozilla won't start after upgrading to 1.7.13
Hi, Currently i don't have a X-enabled hardened system (only a router). Would suggest at least two/three ways to check things. 1.start mozilla from a console, check/post error logs; 2.use 'strace' to start mozilla, post strace logs. I already wrote about these two; no errors appear in any log or the console. strace's novel finishes with: lots of rt_sigprocmask() calls rt_sigaction(SIGINT, {0x8004599e, [], SA_RESTORER, 0x4009e1e8}, {SIG_DFL}, 8) = 0 waitpid(-1, (the output is really cut right there). 3.Same but use some debugger (gdb, other). What exactly should I look for in gdb? The binary is stripped, shall I rebuild? Check PaX flags on mozilla binary (chpax (deprecated) paxctl). Check/alter any grsec settings, through /proc (if enabled). Just finished testing: this didn't help either. I even experimented with the 2.6.14.7 and 2.6.16.18 vanillas under twm, no difference. The same strace story. Thank you for your time spent so far. -Roman -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Here is why this solved the issue for you. hostname -d and hostname --fqdn get the domain part by using gethostbyname() so it does a DNS lookup on your hostname. If your /etc/hosts.conf is set to files, bind then it will look your hostname up in /etc/hosts then query DNS. If your /etc/hosts file has an FQDN entry for your hostname then all is well. If not then your hostname is queried in DNS using the domain statement in /etc/resolv.conf. But I wonder what this DNSDOMAIN setting in /etc/conf.d/domainname is supposed to do. Because of It sets the domain in /etc/resolv.conf # When setting up resolv.conf, what should take precedence? # If you wish to always override DHCP/whatever, set this to 1.

You're right with that OVERRIDE=1 doesn't fix this. Another start of /etc/init.d/domainname should. The OVERRIDE flag just decides whether the new domain setting goes to the start or the bottom (OVERRIDE=1) of /etc/resolv.conf (that has influence, because resolv.conf(5) says: the last instance wins).

It's no worse than the fairly common ~/bin in a searchpath, which I'd actually rate more dangerous -- 1) It's just as hard/easy to put something in ~/bin as in ~/ 2) It's more likely to go unnoticed in ~/bin And, since I do lots of development of itsy-bitsy scripts and C programs, I'm using such stuff all the time.

I see that KDE 3.5 finally made it out of testing. I plan to upgrade to it but since it is slotted, I'll have to unmerge 3.4 first. No problem, but I think I will then have to recompile all non-kde but related apps, such a k3b, that were compiled against the old libraries. Right?

Does the fact that it does not use the kde flag guarantee that it does not need the kde libraries? Course, I guess I could blithely go along and as apps crash, I'll find the others. Just do a revdep-rebuild after merging 3.5 and unmerging 3.4 - that should rebuild anything that lost libraries. -- Manuel A.

Yeh. Fumblefingers sent it on its way before it was ready. You got the gist though, it seems. Anyway, I tried what you asked (fortunately I have multiple hosts here). The ssh -v -v -v brokenhost command produces a raft of info. Below I included just what's after entering the password, but I doubt it will help. I need to get the daemon to be similarly prolix. This host fails to complete ssh requests from all comers -- Windows running SSH Secure Shell or Linux or Solaris running whatever ssh they have, so I need the info from this gentoo server. So how do I get that?

So what I need is the magic incantation to put in sshd_config. I don't know what it is for sure, but the following appear to be prime suspects, I just don't know what to change them to: # Logging # obsoletes QuietMode and FascistLogging #SyslogFacility AUTH #LogLevel INFO -- Kevin O'Gorman, PhD

I plan to upgrade to it but since it is slotted, I'll have to unmerge 3.4 first. No problem, but I think I will then have to recompile all non-kde but related apps, such a k3b, that were compiled against the old libraries. Right? em, why do you think you'll have to unmerge 3.4? They can coexist very nicely. Waste of space? Why keep something around you're not using? -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
