Re: [gentoo-user] {OT} Basic device for a Gentoo router/firewall?
Does anyone know of a basic device that would function well as a Gentoo router/firewall? Using typical hardware seems like overkill. I should be able to offload package compilation duties to another local machine on the network. It would also be nice if it were small, cheap, and power-efficient. I believe stuff like this http://www.routerboard.com/pricelist.php?started_from_home=1 is really common on the Athens network, but it all appears to be MIPS.

[gentoo-user] The most legal way to specify slim and openbox as session?
Hi, currently I am on the way to setup a complete fresh Gentoo system. I want a plain no-KDE and no-GNOME sessionmanager system and want to use openbox a my window manager. As login manager I choose slim. Where is the most legal place to define both as login manager and as session? By the way: The stable version of nvidia-settings and nvidia-drivers are not compatible as nvidia-settings failed to compile. I have to unmask both with ~x86 to get a compatible combo. But this bug has been filed previously... Best regards, mcc -- Please don't send me any Word- or Powerpoint-Attachments unless it's absolutely neccessary. - Send simply Text.

Re: [gentoo-user] The most legal way to specify slim and openbox as session?
Your login manager (usually called Display Manager) is to be configured in /etc/conf.d/xdm: # What display manager do you use ? [ xdm | gdm | kdm | kdm-4.3 | gpe | entrance ] # NOTE: If this is set in /etc/rc.conf, that setting will override this one. # # KDE-specific note: # - If you are using kdeprefix go with kdm-4.Y, e.g. kdm-4.3. # You can find possible versions by looking at the directories in /usr/kde/. # - Else, if you are using KDE 3 enter kdm-3.5 # - Else, if you are using KDE 4 enter kdm without a version DISPLAYMANAGER=slim The session manager should either be set in /etc/rc.conf: XSESSION=openbox and/or in /etc/env.d/90xsession: XSESSION=openbox depending on which version of baselayout you have.

Hm. Is this your motherboard?:

Being a geek of a certain age, I find that products with names that invoke
mega-dose anabolic steroids usually don't fit my lifestyle very well.
I do better with product names that contain more sedate character strings
like VSOP or MOM.
By grepping through /usr/src/linux*/MAINTAINERS I turned up quite a few
email addresses at intel.com, none of which seem relevant to RAID or its
device drivers, but a polite email asking for a link to the appropriate
dev might bring a polite and useful reply. That's how I connected with
the appropriate dev at Broadcom, who eventually fixed my ethernet driver.
Yes, that's the motherboard. I don't care much about the names of
things myself. I had limited options for the new i7-980x processor at
the time I was ordering the hardware, and I'd never done overclocking
before (and technically still haven't) so I got it because it was an
Asus board which I've generally had very good luck with.
To be clear, the RAID I'm doing is mdadm Linux software RAID and
nothing having to do with the on-board RAID controller. The machine
uses the standard Linux SATA drivers, or so I think.
I like the VSOP idea. :-)

Then follow these directions. The kit will most likely be the standard no-fault type. Depending on requirements, System A and/or System B can be used. When operating System A, depress lever and a plastic dalkron unsubscriber will be dispensed through the slot immediately underneath. When you have fastened the adhesive lip, attach connection marked by the large X outlet hose. Twist the silver-coloured ring one inch below the connection point until you feel it lock. The kit is now ready for use. The Cin-Eliminator is activated by the small switch on the lip. When securing, twist the ring back to its initial condition, so that the two orange lines meet. Disconnect. Place the dalkron unsubscriber in the vacuum receptacle to the rear. Activate by pressing the blue button. The controls for System B are located on the opposite side. The red release switch places the Cin-Eliminator into position; it can be adjusted manually up or down by pressing the blue manual release button. The opening is self-adjusting. To secure after use, press the green button, which simultaneously activates the evaporator and returns the Cin-Eliminator to its storage position. You may log off if the green exit light is on over the evaporator. If the red light is illuminated, one of the Cin-Eliminator requirements has not been properly implemented. Press the List Guy call button on the right of the evaporator. He will secure all facilities from his control panel. To use the Auto-Unsub, first undress and place all your clothes in the clothes rack. Put on the velcro slippers located in the cabinet immediately below. Enter the shower, taking the entire kit with you. On the control panel to your upper right upon entering you will see a Shower seal button. Press to activate. A green light will then be illuminated immediately below. On the intensity knob, select the desired setting. Now depress the Auto-Unsub activation lever. Bathe normally. The Auto-Unsub will automatically go off after three minutes unless you activate the Manual off override switch by flipping it up. When you are ready to leave, press the blue Shower seal release button. The door will open and you may leave. Please remove the velcro slippers and place them in their container. If you prefer the ultrasonic log-off mode, press the indicated blue button. When the twin panels open, pull forward by rings A B. The knob to the left, just below the blue light, has three settings, low, medium or high. For normal use, the medium setting is suggested. After these settings have been made, you can activate the device by switching to the ON position the clearly marked red switch. If during the unsubscribing operation you wish to change the settings, place the manual off override switch in the OFF position. You may now make the change and repeat the cycle. When the green exit light goes on, you may log off and have lunch.

This is exactly what I fear of using such specialist hardware! Far better to burn a few watts, than to have to learn such intricacies! We buy about 5 - 10 of these (started on the net4801, now the net5501) per year at work: http://www.yawarra.com.au/hw-net5501.php And make them do various things ranging in intensity from data servers to gateway/firewall/routers and so on. We've used IDE and flash in them, usually IDE for the convenience. We compile for x86. The 4 network ports are nice, and there's some GPIO to boot. They offer a range of free distributions for various purposes: http://www.yawarra.com.au/ti-software.php#free some are just links to the projects, some are pre-built for the device. Would be good to get you started before you've customised it the way you like. That's an Australian company, but the boards come from http://www.soekris.com/ so you may be able to order from them and build / buy your own case. hth, -- Iain Buchanan iaindb at netspace dot net dot au Lucas' Law: Good will always win, because evil hires the _stupid_ engineers.
