[gentoo-user] network services break fbsplash silent mode

2006-10-14 Thread Qiangning Hong

On my laptop, I am using silent mode of fbsplash during boot.
However, as I have wireless access in my office and wired access in my
home (both dhcp), there is always one of the network services, either
net.lan or net.wlan, will fail.  This will take fbsplash into verbose
mode when the service fails.  It is a bit annoying.  Is there any
advice to keep the silent mode on and still can auto detect the
network access?

[gentoo-user] ATI-driver dependencies problem

2006-10-14 Thread Dan Johansson
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

I'm having trouble updating my notebook (HP-nw8000) which has a RV350
[Mobility Radeon 9600 M10] video card. For this notebook I have a
portreplicator with two external monitors connected (one DVI + one VGA).
I'm using the ati-driver-8.24.8 (in PORTDIR_OVERLAY as it no more exists
in the official portage tree) and have x11-drivers/ati-drivers-8.24.8
in /etc/portage/package.mask. I need this version as all the newer once
that I have tested causes the notebook to hard hang when I start X and the
Open-source radeon driver will not work with the two external monitors.
Today when I did an emerge --sync and emerge -uDvNp world I'm getting
the following error message:
Calculating world dependencies |
!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy =x11-drivers/ati-drivers-8.27.10

-R tells vim to be read only, so you cannot edit the files. It is probably a

 Then I add the following line to my .vimrc, which allows me to press

Re: [gentoo-user] network services break fbsplash silent mode

2006-10-14 Thread Steve Walsh

Hi Qiangning

You can specify a fallback setting in net.ethX where if DHCP fails it will 
take another setting. The bhandbook at 
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?part=4chap=2
explains how. I'm not sure if this will fix your problem, but there's a good 
chance it might.

[gentoo-user] Remote scanning with saned and xinetd

2006-10-14 Thread Grant

I'm trying to follow the instructions here to set up remote scanning
across my network:

http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Installing_USB_Scanner

The USB scanner is detected locally with 'sane-find-scanner -q' and
'scanimage -L' but not remotely.  I'm sure I have a misconfiguration
somewhere as I didn't really understand the remote access part of the
instructions I was following.

I have this in /etc/group:

scanner:x:411:saned
saned:x:412:saned

xinetd is installed, but at least some of its files were accidentally
created with group 'scanner'.  I don't know if that makes a
difference.

I commented this:

only_from = localhost

in /etc/xinetd.conf.

There is a list of iptables rules to be applied like:

[0:0] -A INPUT -m recent --update --seconds 600 --name SANE

I don't know how to do that, so I skipped it, but I stopped iptables
before testing the remote scanner detection.  I created
/etc/xinet.d/sane-port and started xinetd, but /var/log/daemon.log
doesn't exist.

On the remote system, I installed xsane which pulled in sane-backends
and I added 192.168.0.1 to /etc/sane.d/net.conf but 'scanimage -L'
doesn't detect the scanner.

If anyone can point out any possible errors in this process I would
really appreciate it.

Re: [gentoo-user] network services break fbsplash silent mode

2006-10-14 Thread Peter Gille

On my laptop, I am using silent mode of fbsplash during boot.
However, as I have wireless access in my office and wired access in my

net.lan or net.wlan, will fail.  This will take fbsplash into verbose

advice to keep the silent mode on and still can auto detect the

install ifplugd. It will automaticly detect when a cable is plugged
into your network card and initialise your network. I think it will
work similarily for your wlan as well. You may want to configure the
wlan so it doesn't autoconnect to any rouge APs, but that is a minor
annoyance. The process is described near the bottom of

[gentoo-user] Problem installing amavisd-new (Gentoo box)

I am attempting to install amavisd-new on my Gentoo box and it is 
failing with the following output.  I am running qmail on this box.  I 
was able to install amavisd-new on two other boxes without a problem. 
The other boxes are running qmail as well.

[gentoo-user] ssh access in vhost account

2006-10-14 Thread Mick
Hi All,

I have a vhost account with an ISP and he's given me ssh access - which is 
nice.  However, his /etc/sshd_config is set to allow passwd authentication 
rather than public key and there's no ~/.ssh/authorised_keys dir/file in my 
home.

Is there a way to set up per user sshd login preferences so that some users 
can login using say passwd while others use keys only, or is there just one 
setting for the whole server through the /etc/sshd_config?  I am not sure how 
things work in a vhost setup so I though of checking first before I start 
asking them silly questions.  ;-)

 What does this mean? I looked in the gentoo forum and found a lot problems

 But actually I have not a single idea how to apply this patch.

You can see a more proper version of the same patch by typing:

# cat `portageq portdir`/dev-lang/erlang/files/glibc-2.4-fix.patch

It is applied in erlang-10.2.10 with this addition to the ebuild:

# cat `portageq portdir`/dev-lang/erlang/erlang-10.2.10.ebuild
[...]
src_unpack() {
[...]
# Patch for glibc-2.4 first noted in Bug #128254 -- NOTE this is a

Just thought I'd send out a warning about this bug for anybody that
hasn't noticed it:

http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=151146

Aside from broken binpkgs, you could also have broken backups in some
cases if you  use tar for that.  FYI .92 is now masked, and there
should be a fix in .92-r1.  To see if you could be affected:

Could it have already been activated by the initrd?

I'm not sure what you mean by activated. I think this message results
from this code:

mount / -n -o remount,rw

which tries to remount root read-write. If you mean that root was
already mounted by the initrd, you are right.



 2. It gets worse because I see:

Actually, evms is all I have in RC_VOLUME_ORDER in /etc/conf.d/rc


I'll try to remove the EVMS activation from checkroot now and see how
that works.

[gentoo-user] dispatch-conf spells disaster

2006-10-14 Thread maxim wexler
Hello group,

As I expected it would, dispatch-conf
over-wrote/corrupted a lot of files without giving me
a chance to stop it. It left no log(file was empty)in
/var/log/dispatch-conf.log. or any record of its
passing that I can find. 

Worst of all I can no longer dialout.
/dev/ttyS0(external modem on COM1) no longer exists
although in udev-rules the rule exists to create
/dev/ttyS*. But there is no such thing under /dev.
Attempts to dial-out lead to unrecognized option
'dev/ttyS0'

Speaking of udev, according to

http://webpages.charter.net/decibelshelp/LinuxHelp_UDEVPrimer.html

the only thing I left out of my setup was 

#rc-update add hotplug boot. 

So I did it, but it didn't help. Under PPP Device on
that same page it says to 

#mknod -m 660 /dev/ppp c 108 0

But that didn't work either.

FWIW this all took place after emerge
baselayout-1.12.5-r1 which issued a warning to

/bin/ls /etc/init.d/net.* | grep -v '/net.lo$' | xargs
-n1 ln -svfn net.lo

Could that have done it?

Also /dev/parport0 no longer exists, or /dev/lp*.

Further, could it be this has nothing to do with
dispatch-conf at all. Afterall, a check of /etc/*conf
shows many files with the timestamp corresponding to
emerge baselayout's timestamp in portage. I didn't run
#dispatch-conf for another 5 mins after that.

No that just ensures that all your net init scripts are symlinks
