Re: [gentoo-user] Confused - vmx cpuflag missing
Hey Guys, I'm trying to get a hypervisor running. I've installed Gentoo 64bit on a new(ish) HP XW6400. When booted with the minimal install CD, /proc/cpuinfo shows: bla bla Just build a stock (gentoo-sources) kernel on the same machine, and the vmx flag is there, along with a whole load of others. Now I'm really confused! I only care about that flag when I'm running a Xen kernel! Anybody got any ideas? Well, don't I feel like an idiot. VT was disabled in the BIOS, under an obscure 'OS Security' menu option. I was thrown off the scent because of the difference in cpu flags shown under stock linux vs. linux running as dom0 under Xen. Apparently Xen isolates some of the machine capabilities from even dom0. For anybody having similar troubles - xm dmesg | grep -i vmx will show you definitely whether VMX has been picked up or not. You're looking for: (XEN) HVM: VMX enabled Best Wishes, Paul -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
[gentoo-user] openrc all over again with version 0.2.4-r1
After surviving the initial update to openrc I've now found after an update world that the latest openrc no longer links /etc/init.d/lo to /lib/rc/sh/net.sh. In fact /lib/rc/sh/net.sh is completely gone. So I'm left with several useless symlinks in /etc/init.d and no indication of what they should be linked to. The migration guide at: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/openrc-migration.xml Appears to be badly out of date and appears to indicate symlinking /etc/init.d/net.ethN to /etc/init.d/net.lo will fix the network startup. No mention of what /etc/init.d/lo is supposed to be linked to now. I've probably missed some important output of emerge during update world but my elogs for openrc do not indicate any messages. The newest version of openrc does not contain the file: /lib/rc/sh/net.sh. as it did with openrc-0.2.3 Anyone know what the new scheme is... what the symlinks in /etc/init.d/net.ethN are supposed to point to? -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list

If so, are there any workarounds? Thanks in advance! Florian Philipp I think you have to run software to decrypt the DVD on the fly and then have mplayer read the stream. The decryption keys to older bluray titles are available but newer ones might need to be decrypted (rip the movie to your harddrive). It is definitely not easy right now but a lot of titles are being cracked everyday. I would avoid bluray until it gets easier to play. Why would you buy an HD-DVD reader? That format is dead and there won't be any new titles. -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list

[gentoo-user] join two tab-separate-value files without join field
Hi. I got a datasheet from my colleague in MS Excel format and I intend to process that file with my awk/sed knowledge. The problem is: he sent me two Excel files each with 2134 records, in fact there should be only one excel file with 2134 rows and 295 columns, but MS Excel can only handle 256 data columns, so he split the datasheet vertically so he can manage to send to me. Now I saved both file to tab-separated-value format, how do I join them? I could have used join(1) but that require a join field, an ID of some sort. I think of this: $ grep -n '' left.tsv | sed 's/:/\t/' left.forjoin $ grep -n '' right.tsv | sed 's/:/\t/' right.forjoin $ join -t left.forjoin right.forjoin result.tsv (note that for join's -t parameter somehow I need to manage to get a tab between the quotes) Yes I achieved what I want, but that looks complex. Is there a simpler way? Thanks in advance. I know OpenOffice 3.0 can handle up to 1024 data columns. It's difficult to convince anyone to switch to OOO because here in China MS Office costs only 0$.

print Arguments: file1 file2\n;
exit(1);
}
open(FIRSTFILE, $ARGV[0]);
open(SECONDFILE, $ARGV[1]);
@first = FIRSTFILE;
@second = SECONDFILE;
$i = 0;
for($i = 0;$i 2; $i++) {
$tmp1 = $first[$i];
$tmp1 =~ s/\n//g;
$tmp2 = $second[$i];
$tmp2 =~ s/\n//g;
$str = $tmp1 . \t . $tmp2 . \n;
print $str;
}

close(SECONDFILE);
This is likely not the best or fastest way to do it, and I don't have a
dataset as large as yours readily available for testing, but it seems to
work.
