Re: [gentoo-user] logrotate desn't create new empty files
Look for a dead.letter file in /root which may contain any errors of the
logrotate script. In my system there is /etc/logrotate.d/syslog-ng which
contains:
===
#
$Header:
/var/cvsroot/gentoo-x86/app-admin/syslog-ng/files/syslog-ng.logrotate,v
1.2 2004/07/18 02:25:02 dragonheart Exp $
#
# Syslog-ng logrotate snippet for Gentoo Linux
# contributed by Michael Sterrett
#
/var/log/messages {
sharedscripts
postrotate
/etc/init.d/syslog-ng reload /dev/null 21 || true
endscript
}
===
It seems to rotate the messages log file fine and create compressed backups
within /var/log. If you have both scripts then there may be a conflict which
would probably be captured in dead.letter.
HTH.

Thanks for that hint, but there was nothing about logrotate in dead.letter.
logrotate itself works fine for me but I want the messages file erased
after rotating and start with a new file and that doesn't work.
any more ideas?

I am not sure I understand that doesn't work: It does not rotate the message log file at all? It rotates it but does not create a new empty message log file after rotation? Anyway, look at your script in /etc/logrotate.d/syslog-ng: Your entry for olddir is redundant. The rotated logs will remain in the /var/log directory anyway. Use olddir if you want to place them somewhere else; e.g. /var/log/old_messages, but make sure that the new directory old_messages is owned by root:root. As already commented by Matthias Guede, the entry copy is not appropriate if you want to actually rotate the log file as opposed to just copy it. The entry create 0600 root root is also redundant as you already specify create as a default option in your /etc/logrotate.conf. (This may mess things up.) Finally, the size at 5M is relatively large so rotation is not going to take place that often unless you force it. HTH. -- Regards, Mick pgpYNnzpSW2GX.pgp Description: PGP signature

[gentoo-user] Nvidia-drivers stopped working
A few days ago I ran my updates and nvidia-settings was updated to 1.0.20070302 All was good until last night. I openen konqueror to browse my home dir and I got a mime-type error and no files displayed. Trying to do konqueror /home/ernie gave me errors that I can't quote but mime types was mentioned again. Assuming that something was just hung up I did top which showed X using 95% cpu Killing java_vm, firefox, kmail and any suspected cpu hogs had no effect so I killed X and attempted to restart it. I got the dreaded no screens found error. Nothing in the logs was any more enlightening and a look at xorg.conf showed no recent changes that I could identify. I changed my driver in xorg.conf to nv from nvidia and X runs, slow as hell but it runs. nvidia-drivers is currently at 100.14.09. I need advice getting this straight. Is there a file where nvidia-settings keeps config data other than xorg.conf? should I update to the masked nvidia-drivers-100.14.11 ? -- Regards, Ernie -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

Re: [gentoo-user] Re: VIDEO_CARDS= Intel Mobile Integrated Graphics Controller ?
The current i810 driver doesnt behave very well for me - blank screens, not being able to run an external monitor correctly and the like. The last one that did is x11-drivers/xf86-video-i810-1.7.4 (a good reason for the modular xorg builds!) Also make sure you are using resolutions that are covered by both your monitor(s) and the card bios - they all have to agree or it falls apart (fiddling them with i915-resolution didnt work), despite trying to ignore EDID and DDC. The highest common resolution I have is 1024x768.
