[gentoo-user] Set a network quota per eth device?

2007-06-21 Thread qfpvajdy
Hello,



I own a server in a datacenter which has a limit on the traffic per month. If I 
transfer more data then what has been defined in my contract, I have to pay 
about 1 EUR per Gbyte.

Is there any kind of program or script in Gentoo Linux which detects if for 
example the server transfers more than 10 Gbytes in one day on the network 
device eth0 and then it shut it down for 24 hours or something like this?

For lack of wanting to wait I proceeded with the HOWTO_fbsplash page.

http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_fbsplash

Things are going OK and I'm down to the point where I should be able
to display the splash page by hand using the following command:

splash_manager --theme=livecd-2007.0 --cmd=set --tty=1

which results in the following error:

Rocker ~ # splash_manager --theme=livecd-2007.0 --cmd=set --tty=1
No 8bpp verbose picture specified in the theme.
FBIOSPLASH_SETSTATE failed, error code 9.

I presume this is saying that it doesn't support 24-bit color mapping?
I see from xdpyinfo that I seem to have 24 bit as default?

SNIP

Following that I tried switching to 16-bit operation in X but I still
get the same message:

Those are just two different ways for setting up a splash screen; I
think gentoo is currently more directed to bootsplash rather than
fbsplash. But neither of them is mandatory for framebuffer usage (and
framebuffer console). In order to use the framebuffer, you just need to
load the relevant module and use fbset or compile the driver into the
kernel and pass the right video=... paramenter to the kernel and
you're set.

Are you sure Gentoo is more directed to bootsplash. I think bootsplash

You could do it that way, but it rather silly since the kernel has all kinds

Shorewall may be able to handle the task, and it is fairly friendly.

If shorewall can't do what you need you'll need to look into the CLI to the 
kernel's traffic control/shaping/queuing tables: tc.  Some examples and 
discussion are in the Linux Advanced Routing  Traffic Control HOWTO.  It's 
part of The Linux Documentation Project so it can be found either there [ 
http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Adv-Routing-HOWTO/ ] or at it's own little corner of

I can also send you some scripts built around tc for my own little home

[gentoo-user] strange MySQL issue

2007-06-21 Thread Sergey A. Kobzar
Hi guys,

I have a strange issue - MySQL startup script reports about error
during system startup:

* Starting mysql ...
* Starting mysql (/etc/mysql/my.cnf)
* MySQL NOT started (0)

There is no errors in /var/log/mysql/mysqld.err:

070621 16:10:43 [Warning] No argument was provided to --log-bin, and
--log-bin-index was not used; so replication may break when this MySQL

Any ideas what it may be? I've checked mysql rc script and found this

Try using:
du -xa /boot | sort -rn
as root to locate the space hogs, which may be hidden files.  (du does lie 
sometimes though, because the assumptions it makes about file size aren't 
always true.)

You might also fire up filelight and/or the file size view of konqueror 
(either would also need to be as root) if you prefer a graphical view.  (They 
will suffer from the same limitations as du, but their assumptions my be 
different.)

Oh, I'm not sure while filesystem you are using, but reiserfs reserves some 
space for the block usage bitmap and misc. metadata, and that takes up a 
number of MB.

[gentoo-user] Freetype fonts - slotted?

2007-06-21 Thread Mick
Hi All,

Some applications like OpenOffice have 'badly' anti-aliased fonts, since I 
updated Freetype a couple of months ago (see attached screenshot).  Some of 
the characters look blurred, both in the text body and in the application 
menu.

I checked and found that I have two freetype packages installed (not sure if 
this is causing the messy fonts):

# eix media-libs/freetype
[I] media-libs/freetype
 Available versions:  
(1) 1.3.1-r4 1.3.1-r5
(2) 2.1.9-r1 2.1.10-r2 2.1.10-r3 2.3.3 2.3.4-r2
 Installed versions:  1.3.1-r5(1)(18:26:12 02/13/07)(nls -tetex)
  2.3.4-r2(2)(19:32:36 05/21/07)
(X -bindist -debug -doc zlib)
 Homepage:http://www.freetype.org/
 Description: A high-quality and portable font engine


Then I had a look to see which packages depend on each:

Any other ideas for fixing my fonts?

I would hazard the guess, that your boot is full because the journal uses 32mb 
for itself.

There is NO reason to use ANY journaling fs for /boot.

You can try two things: make journal smaller (I don't know how) or change boot 
to ext2 (good choice).

I really love reiserfs, but it is the wrong fs for /boot. like ext3 is the 
wrong fs for /boot. Or Xfs. or jfs.

Almost the same with a graphical view.


Oh, I'm not sure while filesystem you are using, but reiserfs reserves some
space for the block usage bitmap and misc. metadata, and that takes up a
number of MB.


You might be right, but still, we have found out that the files are
~15Mb, if the partition has a size of 40Mb, is it possible that
reiserfs is using almost 25Mb for storing data?

I would hazard the guess, that your boot is full because the journal uses 32mb
for itself.

There is NO reason to use ANY journaling fs for /boot.

You can try two things: make journal smaller (I don't know how) or change boot
to ext2 (good choice).

I really love reiserfs, but it is the wrong fs for /boot. like ext3 is the
wrong fs for /boot. Or Xfs. or jfs.


I agree with you, actually, I can't figure out any good reason for

it is using per default 32mb for its journal.

The missing mb (32+1540) comes from two facts:

Actually I think he misread the output of du.  It should be ~7283
for /boot at the root level.  Don't add the individual
subdirectories/files coz you're just counting everything twice.  Add
8193*4096 bytes for the reiserfs journal and you've got 40055 (~40G).

[gentoo-user] where is libnetsnmp-devel? (needed for hplip)

2007-06-21 Thread Allan Gottlieb
Which package contains libnetsnmp-devel?

Apparently this is needed for hplip to work correctly with network
printers/scanners/etc.

(I can use the cups interface to print to my network hp-7310, but
hp-setup won't work and I am unable to scan with xsane.  hp-check
asserts that libnetsnmp-devel is a required dependency.)

If you get no card found , reconfigure your kernel or install your

if you want to install the alsa-driver by emerge , don't forget to add your

ALSA_CARDS=hda-intel




then you can flow this howto http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_ALSA

Probably that one, but that's just a guess.

Gentoo doesn't separate packages into -devel versions -- you get all the 
development stuff as part of the base package (since it's usually required to 
compile, as Gentoo does, pacakges that depend on it).

There isn't a libnetsnmp package in gentoo, nor a netsnmp package in any 
of the *-libs categories.  Naming something netsnmp seems a bit redundant 
to me anyway, I'm fairly sure the N of sNmp stands for network, so I 
just searched for snmp.  14 hits.  1 is in a *-libs category, but the short 
description says it's specifically for KDE, not what you are looking for I 
think.  1 (other) has lib in the name of the package, but it's specifically 
for ruby, again, I was fairly sure that wasn't what you were looking for.  
Also, other distros generally but ruby in the package name of ruby libraries.  
Down to 12 packages.

I threw out packages in dev-perl and perl-python, again, because of other 
distros naming practices.  1 package was in sec-policy which is definitely 
not the place for a lib.  1 package was a plugin for something else, so I 
decided that was also probably not what you want.  Down to 4 packages.

At that point, I decided the most likely package was net-snmp because of the 
name.  bsnmp says it's a library (whereas net-snmp doesn't) so that would 
probably be a good second choice.  snmpmon (a tool) and snmptt could also 
ship that library, but that's probably a stretch.

Thanks; you are right.  I eventually found it too.  I now see where I
got into trouble.  I didn't set the snmp use flag and hence hplip
didn't bring in net-analyzer/net-snmp.

Is this a bug?  That is, should hplip unconditionally depend on
net-snmp?  hplip includes hp-check, which complained that I needed
libnetsnmp-devel.

I still have not been able to install my network-attached hp officejet
7310 using hp-setup (it install fine via cups).  The trouble is that
scanning doesn't work and various network posts suggest that
installing via hp-setup is needed for most of the hp tool and for full
functionality of the device.

When/if I (with help from the hplip list) resolve my scanning problem,
I will check if net-snmp is really needed.  If so, I am inclined to
file a bug.

Well, I read through the how to, I had all that done already, I just
never had removed the arts USE flag.  The sounds works but it is slow to

while switching desktops or something that I do pretty quick.  Any ideas
on that?
