[gentoo-ppc-user] glPolygonMode rendering problems

2006-05-26 Thread Matt Amos
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.

Thanks,

Matt

Also, unless this have changed dramatically, eix's database update is

make install symlinks the new kernel to vmlinuz and the previous one to

[gentoo-user] kdehiddenvisibility: What does it do?

Hello.

New KDE ebuilds feature a USE flag called kdehiddenvisibility, which

4.1 (experimental)

Well, this doesn't tell me much. What would I get, if I'd enable this

Re: [gentoo-user] Now Know Why Portage Is So Slow

2006-05-26 Thread leszek

 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:

Re: [gentoo-user] Mozilla won't start after upgrading to 1.7.13 [DEAD BRANCH]

2006-05-26 Thread Roman Zilka
 Now I remember.  It just sort of hit me all at once.  I had to re-emerge
 all this:
 
  1137403163: Started emerge on: Jan 16, 2006 03:19:23
  1137403163:  *** emerge --verbose gnome-icon-theme
  evolution-data-server hicolor-icon-theme miscfiles gconfmm madplay
  libglade gnome-vfsmm gnome-vfs gnome-keyring hashalot tunepimp
  gnome-themes bin86 win32codecs opencdk ed

Is this the right emerge batch? It's pretty outdated for mozilla-1.7.13.
Just an idea. I followed this recipe, (re)emerged all this software,
no difference to mozilla. Rebuilt mozilla, still
no help. Rebuilt all these packages and mozilla once more, still nothing.

I also experimented under twm, no difference. As for the USE flags
relevant to mozilla - I use the ebuild's defaults, except for +xinerama.
I.e.: +crypt -debug -gnome -ipv6 +java -ldap -mozcalendar -mozdevelop
-moznocompose -moznoirc -moznomail -moznoxft -mozsvg -postgres +ssl
+truetype +xinerama -xprint.

At any rate thank you for your effort being.

[gentoo-user] VOIP solution for dump terminals?

2006-05-26 Thread Zhang Weiwu
Hello. In an office we helped set up, there are a lot of X terminals for the
clerks. (These X terminals are the old computers from school's lab,
installed simple Gentoo Linux only to start X). Now they need VIOP, is it
possible?  I mean, is it possible the clerks use VOIP on X terminals, when
the terminal equiped sound card, microphone but what they see on the screen
is actually produced by the powerful server (which has only one sound card)?

Ideas welcome! Thanks. I tried searched the portage and didn't discover a
VOIP solution that can work on console which might solve this problem.
(a.k.a when you make a VOIP call, please use this shortcut to connect to
your own X terminal with telnet and operate the VOIP software)

[gentoo-user] emerge problem (proxy? firewall?)

Hi all, 
I have a Gentoo PC connected to the net through a proxy that I

I can surf the net, but wget fails, so I cannot emerge-webrsync.

My proxy server is:
ftp_proxy=ftp://www-proxy.blah-blah.de:3128
http_proxy=http://www-proxy.blah-blah.de:3128

When I emerge-webrsync I get:

Is it because of that :21 or :80 instead of :3128?
Does anybody know if and how can I overcome the problem?

Re: [gentoo-user] Mozilla won't start after upgrading to 1.7.13

2006-05-26 Thread Roman Zilka
  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.

 not switch actually.

If you do that, be sure to read

completely break your system.

 
 
 Does firefox write anything to the terminal after crashing ?
 
 nothing, I also tried to start firefox through strace, It stoped at 
 waitpid system call, did not write anything after crashing. 
 I've heard somebody compiling firefox with debug infomation, but I
 don't know
 how to use that~.

Should be done like this:

# echo www-client/mozilla-firefox debug  /etc/portage/package.use
# vi /etc/make.conf
#   add 'nostrip' to FEATURES
# emerge -av firefox

if you have gdb installed, you can:
$ gdb firefox
(gdb) run
  if firefox crashes
(gdb) back

However, i would really advise you to follow the gcc upgrade guide and
switch to gcc-3.4.x. This is most likely to solve your problem.

But I wonder what this DNSDOMAIN setting in /etc/conf.d/domainname is
supposed to do. Because of

# When setting up resolv.conf, what should take precedence?
# If you wish to always override DHCP/whatever, set this to 1.
OVERRIDE=1

I thought that this setting would have an effect. Seems not so...

That's not what I meant - I would have gcc-4.1 and gcc-3.4 installed
in parallel and switch to gcc-4.1 using gcc-config.

So, all the packages compiled with gcc-3.4 will 
continue to run, after gcc-3.4 is removed?


Of course. You don't need to have gcc installed to be able to

It would be wiser to leave GCC 3.4 installed for now, until all the
wrinkles have been ironed out from 4.1. gcc-config means having them both
installed and switching at will is easy.

You can use PORTAGE_ELOG_COMMAND to call any command with the log
information.


# PORTAGE_ELOG_COMMAND: only used with the custom logging module. Specifies a 
command
#  to process log messages. Two variables are expanded:
#  ${PACKAGE} - expands to the cpv entry of the 
processed
#   package (see $PVR in ebuild(5))
#  ${LOGFILE} - absolute path to the logfile #
   Both variables have to be quoted with single quotes 
#PORTAGE_ELOG_COMMAND=/path/to/logprocessor -p '${PACKAGE}' -f '${LOGFILE}'
#PORTAGE_ELOG_COMMAND=/path/to/logprocessor -p '${PACKAGE}' -f '${LOGFILE}'

Okay.

I've now got:

PORTAGE_ELOG_COMMAND=/usr/local/bin/portage-elog-command.sh [EMAIL PROTECTED] 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] '\${PACKAGE}' '\${LOGFILE}'

- [EMAIL PROTECTED] is to be replaced with the recipient address
- Matches recipient address from PORTAGE_ELOG_MAILURI
- [EMAIL PROTECTED] is to be replaced with the sender address
- Matches PORTAGE_ELOG_MAILFROM

/usr/local/bin/portage-elog-command.sh:
#! /bin/sh

# Recipient address
to=$1
# Sender address
from=$2
# ${PACKAGE} - expands to the cpv entry of the processed
# package (see $PVR in ebuild(5))
pvr=$3
# ${LOGFILE} - absolute path to the logfile - This will

log_file=$4

# Name of the host from which this mail is sent

# Sender full name

Here is why this solved the issue for you.  hostname -d and hostname --fqdn

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

 to use genkernel, you have to call genkernel.  If he's typing make

That if you do a manual install, the installer use it, or better, if
you choose it will use the same kernel as the livecd, that is, voilá,
genkernel. Try it, its pretty cool.


Most settings from the original install are gone because I'm pretty

  It sets the domain in /etc/resolv.conf
 
 No, it doesn't.

Well, it does (in /etc/init.d/domainname). But this is obviously
overwritten in your case by dhcp settings.

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). So what's probably
missing is another call to /etc/init.d/domainname after DHCP has set up
the interface.

Is this the right emerge batch? It's pretty outdated for mozilla-1.7.13.
Just an idea. I followed this recipe, (re)emerged all this software,
no difference to mozilla. Rebuilt mozilla, still
no help. Rebuilt all these packages and mozilla once more, still nothing.

I also experimented under twm, no difference. As for the USE flags
relevant to mozilla - I use the ebuild's defaults, except for +xinerama.
I.e.: +crypt -debug -gnome -ipv6 +java -ldap -mozcalendar -mozdevelop
-moznocompose -moznoirc -moznomail -moznoxft -mozsvg -postgres +ssl
+truetype +xinerama -xprint.

At any rate thank you for your effort being.

It is a different version but I had the same problem.  I was trying to
remove some Gnome stuff and it messed up Mozilla somehow.  After I put
them back, it worked fine.  It was just a thought.  I'm not certain it
would fix your problem but it was worth mentioning.

Sorry that didn't help though.

Does the Google cached page do the same thing? Hurry up and get it, I
don't know how long google's gonna have it up ;)

My guess is it has something to do with the flash mp3 player on their page
(I see nothing else out of the ordinary). It comes from
http://www.myspacegeeks.com/myspace-generators/flash-mp3-player/ - that
page may/should kill everything as well if that was the problem.

I had no problems with anything freezing up on Windows, but firefox would
no longer type after having that window open for a few moments. It could

[gentoo-user] xdm is 'stopping'

Holas,

Two days ago I updated the nvidia drivers, so I killed gdm and restarted xdm 
to reload the newer modules.

Problem is, it looks like xdm never restarted.

root ~ $ /etc/init.d/xdm status
 * status:  stopping

root ~ $ /etc/init.d/xdm stop
 * ERROR:  xdm is already stopping.

rc-status gives
xdm  [ stopping ]

Everything *seems* to work fine, but then there's that silly 'stopping' 
comment that doesn't google very well.  Anyone seen this, or have an idea?

Thanks.

[gentoo-user] What is causing x11-terms/xterm to be dragged in?

2006-05-26 Thread michael

Hello,

I'm trying to remove any dependencies on x11 from my headless server. Thanks to

Open to debate. I'd think it's not very dangerous at the *end* of the PATH.
The usual worry is a Trojan masquerading as a normal utility, chosen
early because of the order of things in the searchpath. When I use ., I
put it at the end. 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.
Nevertheless it should not be removing the entry unless its a dup. Ihave quickly confirmed the behaviour it is defn stripping all .

What are your use flags from /etc/make.conf and /usr/portage/package.use?
You have opengl as an enabled flag, for example, and that would pull in
xorg if something reacts to it (as libsdl does on my system).

Everything you put in /etc/make.conf should be based on the
make.defaults, or possible things you want enabled.
If X is in make.defaults, add -X to make.conf to disable it. You should
probably add -X -opengl -gnome -gtk -gtk2 -kde -qt to /etc/make.conf at

[gentoo-user] KDE 3.5

2006-05-26 Thread Anthony E. Caudel
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?


Using equery useflag kde, I found k3b and amarok (and gnome-libs ).

So, my question is:  Is this all?  I can't believe these are all the 
semi-kde apps there are?  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.

I think the basic default use flags are meant to be for a general
purpose system, which would usually include X. If you are lazy and don't
want to change your use flags, chances are you won't have to, at least not
very much, to have all of your programs work. If you're able to use the
system without X installed, it's most likely assumed you can add -X to
make.conf.

Just do a revdep-rebuild after merging 3.5 and unmerging 3.4 - that 
should rebuild anything that lost libraries.

I should also have clarified: the contents of /var/log/messages is the same as for an ssh
login: just two lines of basic information that the client has been accepted. 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
