 Hi!
 Somebody out there try to set up the latest xorg server (and all the ~x86

 I would like to try, but my latest attempt three weeks ago caused same crazy 
 problems (X didn't start at all), and I am not so crazy to do the same 
 mistake twice in a row, without some prior advices. Well in my latest attempt 
 I used xorg 1.4.2 and 173.14 nvidia drivers (I don't like Marked beta 
 software).

I may have had the same problem a week ago.  X would start, kdm would
let me log in, but just about when the kde desktop would finish loading
kde would quit back to kdm.  Couldn't find any hint in /var/log.
Started backing out various things ended up getting the system working
again by masking hal 0.5.11:

# cat /etc/portage/package.mask/monolithic
=sys-fs/encfs-1.4.2
~sys-apps/hal-0.5.11
=media-video/mplayer-1.0_rc2_p27725


At the time I was suspecting that hal 0.5.11 was requiring evdev (which
with 20+ hours of unsuccessfully trying to get it to work over the last
year, I wouldn't be surprised if it's the culprit).

Haven't had time to dig further.

[gentoo-user] Networking broke after update: We only hotplug for ethernet interfaces

2008-10-14 Thread Grant Edwards
My last emerge -auvND world appears to have broken the
networking setup on my machine.

I use tun/tap networking in order to allow Qemu virtual
machines to show up on the network, so my /etc/conf.d/net looks
like this:

   bridge_br0=eth0
   
   config_br0=( dhcp )
   dhcpcd_br0=( -L )
   config_eth0=( null )
   
   # To be able to access internet on current machine
   depend_br0() {
need net.eth0 
}

That has worked fine for ages, but now when my system starts up
it says:

  rc.scripts: rc-scripts: We only hotplug for ethernet interfaces.

And then the br0 interface is disabled (leaving the machine
disconnected from the network).

Is hotplug now broken so that it can't be used the way it used
to?

Try another key than 'h'. The space key will show a little help, probably

[gentoo-user] procmail+spamassassin user filters

2008-10-14 Thread David Rioja

Hello!
my mail users want to define their own individual antispam rules. I've 
installed procmail in order to pipe messages through spamassassin but I 
can't get it working. This is what I've done:


1.- I created ~/.spamassassin/user_prefs with the following line (just 
for testing):


add_header all hello_you _TESTS_

2.- I created ~/.procmail with the following contents:

SHELL=/bin/sh
MAILDIR=$HOME/.maildir
DEFAULT=$MAILDIR
LOGFILE=$MAILDIR/procmail.log

| spamassassin --prefs-file=$HOME/.spamassassin/user_prefs

# actually I had a separate rc file named spamassassin.rc with further 
stuff

# but I've changed it for clearness

3.- I send myself a message: procmail.log echoes its processing but my 
X-Spam-hello_you header is missing.


However, when I pipe an stored message by typing on the shell:

spamassassin  message_file

It returns me the message rewritten with my test header.

Piping to procmail with:

procmail  message_file

Creates another message file but without my text header.

Can anyone guess what am I doing wrong?

Thanks!

[gentoo-user] Alt-O behavior in midnight commander (mc) has changed

2008-10-14 Thread Paul Hartman
Hi,

At some point not very recently, the behavior of Alt-O in Midnight
Commander (mc) has changed. It used to switch the opposite panel to
the same directory as the current panel. Now, it switches the opposite
panel to the parent directory of the current panel. I kept waiting for
it to switch back after some update, but it never has. I'm not sure at
which update it changed, but it has been several months now, I think.

Is there anyone who experiences this besides me? Is it something I
need to edit (termcap? key bindings? I dunno)

I'm using mc-4.6.2_pre1 with USE flags X gpm nls samba unicode

Thanks

 You don't need ivman with KDE, it has its own device detection

I know KDE doesn't need ivman.  It uses pmount, hal and friends.  Since
I had upgraded and re-emerged some friends of the process, I just logged
out and back in.  For the record, ivman is basically for command line. 
Put in CD/DVD and it mounts it for you instead of having to type in the
mount command.  Sort of like a KDE thing but no KDE required.

Sorry if that was confusing.

Re: [gentoo-user] Networking broke after update: We only hotplug for ethernet interfaces

 My last emerge -auvND world appears to have broken the

 That has worked fine for ages, but now when my system starts up

 And then the br0 interface is disabled (leaving the machine

 Is hotplug now broken so that it can't be used the way it used
 to?

Re: [gentoo-user] Easily coping with a domain password

2008-10-14 Thread Stroller


On 13 Oct 2008, at 23:21, Alan McKinnon wrote:

...
Should I be looking into winbind?
Or configure kerberos to join the domain and have all my apps use  
that?

Some ldap-proxy type setup?

Pointers to howtos and opinions on what's worth the effort are all  
that I'm
after today - I can read the details in the man pages myself once I  
have a
known direction to follow. If my three ideas above sound stupid,  
that's

because they probably are :-)


I don't think winbind is an answer - I use it myself on an IMAP  
server, allowing the users to use the same password for their email as  
they do for the domain, and I don't immediately see how it could be  
configured to in some way behave in a manner which would alleviate  
your problem.


The solution which seems most obvious to me is to reboot your laptop  
when changing your domain password (or even just log out?), so that  
all these services are no longer running in the background with the  
old password saved. Also, you could perhaps ask your IT department to  
change their security policy to reduce the number of occasions upon  
which you need to inconvenience them; instead of 3 attempts locking  
you out permanently and requiring a manual reset, if they locked you  
out for only 5 minutes you would perhaps have time to realise there's  
a problem and fix it.


IMO any client being denied access with a bad password type response  
should STOP AND ASK for a corrected password, rather than persistently  
trying with a user:pass it has been told to be invalid. Is it possible  
your klient apps are somehow misconfigured? If not, perhaps you should  
file upstream bugs.

[gentoo-user] Same package, same version, different USE flags, how to avoid rebuild?

2008-10-14 Thread Andrea Momesso
Yesterday I emerged app-office/openoffice-3.0.0, and as usual it took a lot
of time. This morning, after sync, portage wants to reemerge the same
package, and the same version, due to a new (and unused by me) useflag which
is -templates%.

Of course the result would be a completely identical build, as long as I'm
not using that useflag, so I want to avoid it. At the same time I don't want
to see anymore openoffice in the list of upgradable packages in my daily
