I always had problems with mpv when caching was enabled. In fact,
I'm now running mpv without caching ("cache=no") at all and it
runs smooth as butter, even for full HD and better. So maybe try
disabling the cache altogether?
Otherwise I've got no idea as to what might be causing your
issue. Never had any problems despite caching issues.

Re: [gentoo-user] Is rc.conf no longer used by Gentoo (baselayout-1.12.13)?
Hi! Thanks Mike, most helpful! What happens if you want to switch between different sessions at/from the Display Manager stage? Do you place them all in /etc/env.d/90xsession ? Sorry, I'm not sure how to do that. I'm the only user on my system and I don't use a graphical login manager. For example KDM (and GDM, i think) look for *.desktop files in /usr/share/xsessions.

Re: [gentoo-user] [OT] Need advice from people who use non-ascii all day long
Hey! So do people type in Busingen different ways depending on how they feel, do some people always leave off the umlaut, do some always use it? You cannot simply leave the umlaut out since it is considered as a separate letter for itself. You cannot choose whether to write an ö or an o. Like Renat said, there are words that completely change their meaning when exchanging the characters. I think this is especially true if it comes to names. While people get used to spellings like Goettingen for Göttingen, it looks odd and wrong to Germans. Like someone who doesn't have the character on the keyboard ;) Also keep in mind that there are cities that are spelled with oe or ae by design. (Soest, Oelde, Aerzen, Oestinghausen etc.) Those cannot be spelled with an ö instead. It would simply be wrong. Patrick signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.

[gentoo-user] CMake and empty directories
Hello gentooers!
Maybe some of you can help me with this one. I'm trying to create an ebuild to
test some of our university software on my laptop. It is using cmake as a
build tool. CMakeLists.txt states the following (among others :)
SET(PREFIX ${CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX})
SET(INCLUDEDIR_B ${PREFIX}/include)
INSTALL(CODE FILE(MAKE_DIRECTORY ${INCLUDEDIR_B}/iwPlugins))
Everything is compiling fine, but the install procedure gets interrupted with a
sandbox violation:
ACCESS DENIED mkdir:/usr/include/iwPlugins
CMake Error at cmake_install.cmake:92 (FILE):
file problem creating directory: /usr/include/iwPlugins
It seems for me that the variable INCLUDEDIR_B is not expanded to the sandbox
path but /usr/include within the CODE statement. Other INSTALL instructions
like FILES and TARGETS work fine. Is it advisable to have another method of
creating an empty directory?
Thanks in advance

I have never expierienced any problems with the proprietary driver (till now). For sure it would be better if it were open but at least it always worked and had acceptable performance. You could try switching to another GL (via eselect) or rebuilding cairo w/o GL. Strange, eselect showed that it was already set to xorg. Rebuilding cairo with -opengl made gtk+ compile. Thanks! Maybe an older version of the nvidia driver will also make it work. BTW: if you experience system lockups or X11 crashes, also the NVidia driver may be the source of evil. Did not nice that before. Sad but true: there is *NO* reliable 3D driver for recent NVidia cards. NV's proprietary driver is crap, and they're totally unwilling to support OSS community in any way. So if you really want GL, either try software rendering (via mesa) or get a supported card. (I've got the same problem - didn't properly check before bying :( ) Supported card? ATI/AMD is just beginning to give information (when I bought the card both were binary only and nvidia had better performance/compatibility) and Intel performance is just too bad.

Init Script dependencies (Was [gentoo-user] openvpn and nfsmount)
Hello again! Nevertheless I've used this many times before, and although realtime performance isn't especially good, I certainly wouldn't go so far as to call it unstable. I've used OpenVPN to interconnect workstations and servers in Argentina, using all from Cable internet to ADSL, and GPRS modems. It rocks. I also never experienced any stability problems with OpenVPN. And NFS, well, it's NFS. I don't love it, but I've used NFS exports from a 14.k modem... So... maybe he is having internet issues, router issues, firewall issues, compilation issues... but OpenVPN and NFS, given a relatively good network environment, work more than OK. NFS works great for me, too. I don't see why I should not use it. But going back to the original topic, which was not really about the pros and cons of OpenVPN and NFS. (Maybe I should have chosen another subject.) How can I adjust init script dependencies based on ESSID / IP adress or network devices that are up and running?

[gentoo-user] openvpn and nfsmount
Hello! I am having difficulties in setting up nfs with my laptop. I have an openvpn server running at home that can be reached via dynamic dns from the outside world. Now i would like to mount my nfs exports from everywhere I am. These exports are only available in the vpn subnet (10.8.0.*). There are basically three scenarios (all via net.wlan0): 1. Home: - Direct connection to the openvpn server with a static private IP adress (192.168.1.xxx) - ESSID is fixed (e.g. home) - The openvpn service can be started via /etc/init.d/openvpn.home start (it is properly configured via /etc/openvpn/home.conf - After that net.tap0 can be started and gets an ip adress inside the vpn (e.g. 10.8.0.100) if i have the following in /etc/conf.d/net: config_tap0=( dhcp ) mac_tap0=00:FF:22:33:44:55 RC_NEED_tap0=openvpn.home 2. Remote: - Connection via internet - This time the openvpn service has to be started via /etc/init.d/openvpn.remote start (because the config for that resides in /etc/openvpn/remote.conf) - You see that i have to change a line in /etc/conf.d/net to get things to work: config_tap0=( dhcp ) mac_tap0=00:FF:22:33:44:55 RC_NEED_tap0=openvpn.remote Question is: Can I avoid changing these lines everytime I travel around? 3. Remote via vpnc: - Connection via internet (so openvpn.remote has to be used) - ESSID fixed (e.g. unibi) - Additionally: The vpnc service (/etc/init.d/vpnc.uni) has to be active Second question: Can I start the vpnc service by knowing the ESSID of my wireless network, and if I can: how?

[gentoo-user] OpenVPN and DHCP
Hello everybody! Maybe this is a bit Off-Topic here, but maybe some of you like to help me anyway. I am trying to build a VPN network where the clients get their IP adresses from a local DHCP server (because it should notify the nameserver of the clients). The VPN should have its own adress pool 10.8.0.* while the unsecured clients in the server's LAN should get an 192.168.1.* adress. I got the VPN working but the clients do appearently not get their IP from the DHCP server but some random IP from the OpenVPN server. (The DHCP server only assignes 10.8.0.100-200 adresses but the clients get .8 or .10 for example) Now my questions are: Do I need bridging for making the DHCP server work in the VPN? How should the configuration files look like? The current configuration files can be found here: http://wwwhomes.uni-bielefeld.de/pholthaus/public/vpn client.openvpn.conf.txt and server.openvpn.conf.txt are the current configuration files. client.openvpn.conf.testing.txt and server.openvpn.conf.testing.txt are files where i tried to use tap devices. However if i use these configurations i get the following error in the server's log: Mar 15 12:50:04 kael openvpn[23401]: thrall/129.70.171.12:32830 MULTI: no dynamic or static remote --ifconfig address is available for thrall/129.70.171.12:32830 Any help is appreciated very much!

Re: [gentoo-user] How many GB for / partition?
remounting. You don't. But saying that remounting /usr when you do updates takes up an unreasonable amount of time is pretty much moot if you take a couple of minutes to script your update procedure. a) /tmp is cleaned during boot - so this won't happen anyway. /tmp ios cleaned so late, that it is too late, is both are totally full. b) Don't let it happen in the first place. you can not tell an attacker what not to do. c) Boot a rescue system like Knoppix and clean /tmp. yeah! but why boot from a boot-cd, if you don't have to? (hint: /tmp not on its own, small partition) Oh yeah, it's much better to have /tmp on the same filesystem as /, making the system unusable as soon as you fill up /tmp. Good suggestion ;) d) In reality, I NEVER had it happen that /tmp or /var/tmp ran out of space. What happened more often is that /var ran out of space, because of the logs in /var/log. you have never used gimp, did you? I have seen gimp filling up a 5GB /tmp. I see. Strange thing is, that about every server and workstation I've seen more or less contradicts what you say. if you have 20+ users on each of them, and every single one is a little cracker in disguisse, it may make sense, but for a single user box? Why are you asking? because you are the one starting with 'server' and 'workstations' Correct. So what? Why are you asking? and the OP never talked about one or the other. His system MUST be the one or the other. nope, there is a third category: personal computer (also called home computer). What's this got to do with anything at all? If every partition takes a second, it will be very noticable. Hardly. (Notice that I'm not saying No.) if mounting becomes the major 'hold up' in your booting process, it becomes VERY noticable. Jaja. Do you actually expect to be taken seriously? not from you. From thois mailing list I learnt, that if someone is not on your side, the person is wrong. Good philosophy. Good luck getting through life with that attitude. I have been there, I doubt that. Why should I lie? I had 3 ibm harddisks 1x10Gb,2x40gb one seagate 20gb and all and everything on its own partition. And it was hell after a while. I would imagine it could get pretty screwed up using ordinary partitions which you can't resize easily. But from Alexander's point of view this is pretty much moot since it seems that extending filesystems using LVM is extremely easy and fast. More harddisks=bigger chance that one of them dies. So, instead of spreading your data out over several harddrives (reducing the chance of loosing _all_ your data when a harddrive dies), you'd rather have everything on one harddrive, thus loosing all your data when that harddrive dies... Best suggestion I've heard in a long time ;) True. So? What does this have to do with the fact, that the available hd's are too small? Just as a reminder - that's the scenario YOU are talking about. becuase you started with 'buy more harddisks' It is simple math. *LOL* _You_ should not talk about maths :) you obviously don't understand simple statistics. The statistics in your reasoning really has no bearing in the argument, since harddrives will fail no matter how many (or few) harddrives you have. And even though having more harddrives increases the chance of one of them failing, how does that impact your choice in what partitioning-scheme you want to use (especially if you use LVM)? Seems like. But maybe it's just, that I've got problems following your nonsense, hm? you mean your nonesense? Yep, it is hard to deal with you. I snipped the rest: TL:DR Wow, intelligent rebuttals here... Impressive. At the end of the day, it's basically a choice of how secure/robust you want your filesystem layout to be compared to how much tinkering you want to do to keep everything rolling along nicely. Using alot of ordinary partitions seems to be pretty outdated when we have access to LVM, and can bring alot of hassle if you have made your partitions to small, or waste alot of space if made to big. Using one partition for basically everything under / is a bit less secure if you're running a couple of services on your system, but if you're just using the system as a workstation, I wouldn't be too worried about it. Using LVM seems to be a lot more flexible since you can start small with your filesystems, and extend them after time when need be. But this also includes some supervision of how much space you have available on your different filesystems. Could probably be considered a more convenient alternative if you plan to extend your system later on with more harddrives, or plan on separating your data areas to further security/robustness.

[gentoo-user] Routing problem
Hi, I have connected two sites with openVPN, this works fine all traffic goes trought the tunnels, and i can ping machines from one site to another. But, i can't ping a machine from siteA from openVPN from siteB. to make it compleet bizar the machine on siteA can ping the openVPN on siteB. If i do a ping -R on the machine at siteA i see this: RR: 10.32.3.172 - machine siteA 10.32.101.3 - tunnel 10.32.16.52 - openVPN siteB 10.32.16.52 10.32.3.51 - must be 10.32.101.3 (openVPN siteA) 10.32.3.172 It seems that the answer goes direct between the two openVPN machines and not the tunnel (10.32.101.x) There is a route 10.32.0.0 netmask 255.255.252.0 gw 10.32.101.3 dev tun1.

On 05/07/23 14:50, Holly Bostick wrote: Jules Colding schreef: emerge --sync emerge -vauDN today gave me the following error. [snip] Well, since I just (literally, 10 minutes ago) emerged mozilla-firefox-1.0.6-r2, and had no problems on a 32-bit system, I must suspect that this is a 64-bit issue. In that regard, I see at least one thing in your emerge info that has been called into question for 64-bit users in recent threads: CFLAGS=-march=k8 I am, of course, not a 64-bit user, so I don't know anything about this, but I have seen several responses to similar questions that suggest that the correct flag is march=amd64 Looking at gcc's info page, there is no amd64 target. The only ones I can find that seems reasonable are k8 and athlon64. I use k8 myself and haven't had _any_ problems with it. Oh, and despite what Patrick said, I think you were right to post here first-- no need to clog up b.g.o with what might be a configuration problem and waste developer's time closing an invalid bug. I really don't see how this could be a configuration problem, since it would have complained about an erroneous compilation flag if it was the k8 thing that was at fault... And missing files (which the compilation error points at) sounds pretty much like a valid bug to me... I think it's always wise to try to make sure that it really is a bug before posting it. Of course, but looking at the ordinary response from developers to these kind of emails, I'd guess that b.g.o is where they want the report, not here... And it seems to me that if there is a bug, it might be a *documentation* bug (because the other person who mentioned using march=k8 said that that was the recommendation of the docs, but that seems to no longer be the case, if people using this flag are regularly receiving compilation errors). Documentation bug? Not recommended by the docs any more? You might want to actually try to find information about the subjects you respond to. Straight out of the AMD64 Gentoo Handbook: AMD64 users who want to use a native 64 bit system should use -march=k8 Combining that cite with the information from the gcc info page, I'm pretty sure it's not a documentation bug. -- Regards, Patrick Börjesson PGP signature: http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=getsearch=0x21792A5D PGP fingerprint: 74AF D4EF 6BDE CF77 16BE 6A29 CDB8 7607 2179 2A5D pgpXnDevvfSnn.pgp Description: PGP signature

To me, Holly, and I'd bet many others, the instead... in that line could only be read as telling the OP that he has posted to the wrong place, and that we do not welcome such things here. Ok, reading my original post again I can see your point ;) Plus, the OP message was very much of the here is the output of a failed build, what does it mean variety. Many such posts come from people who don't know how to recognize the actual source of the build failure. Whether it says missing file, unresolved symbol, locking failed, or compiler bug, they simply do not know what it *really* means (and sometimes, not even what line contains the real problem). Ok, I might have read a bit too much into the fact that he posted the output of emerge info. Not very usual in this list (from what I've seen in the last couple of years) since most people who don't know what line in the build failure is relevant mostly don't give much information either concerning arch and other information that might be important to help finding the cause. Although... I would suggest that the OP give a more explicit question, since I was really not sure if it was a anyone seen this before?, I'm a n00b, please solve this for me! or a where should I take this to get it solved? question. Now, I don't mean to offend any users here. I don't expect everybody running Gentoo to be a programmer or linux expert. So I will say it clearly: if a user encounters an error in emerge that he doesn't know what to do with, it is entirely appropriate to post here first. Agreed Of course, but in this case it wasn't an oversight... The poster explicitly said that using march=k8 seemed to no longer be the recommendation of the docs. That implies at least _some_ looking into the subject before posting... No, Holly said that her advice was based on recent threads. A recent thread on this list involving gzip on by an amd64 user suggested trying different march options. Now, it was _bad_ advice (sorry Holly, but it was!), but Holly did say she doesn't use amd64 and wasn't sure. Ok. I just make it a point of trying to find a bit more information, than just previous threads in a user mailinglist, about the things I suggest. But I'll try being more forgiving towards those who might not next time ;) Since I'm myself using the specified platform and have had at least a bit experience with it Good. Please help educate those of us who don't have or know the amd64 platform very well! :-) Ehm... now let's not take this overboard ;) I'm by no means an expert (or even near experienced) on this arch. I'm just saying I might have at least some information that might be more relevant than a 32 bit only person might have... Also, since the originator had posted the emerge info output, I assumed that he/she was at least a bit familiar with how bug handling is handled by Gentoo. Maybe, but I still think it was pretty clear that the OP was not sure whether the problem was an actual bug or not. Maybe, but I'm still inclined to give short (and sometimes uninformative) answers to questions that doesn't really give enough information regarding both the experience level of the person, and especially what he/she wants help with. -- Regards, Patrick Börjesson PGP signature: http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=getsearch=0x21792A5D PGP fingerprint: 74AF D4EF 6BDE CF77 16BE 6A29 CDB8 7607 2179 2A5D pgpdswVpJHBjf.pgp Description: PGP signature

If you download their network.dsk floppy image then you can have internet access during the install; skip the slackinstall, duck out into a terminal, and install gentoo. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

This is also if i want to use a existing account. Only with root i have no problems. Ofcourse the machine account exists. Anyone a idee wat i must change on the Windows machine ?

Re: [gentoo-user] OT: keys that don't create keycodes

I have a couple of them! I've tried all the usual ways of detecting them - xev and others that do a similar thing but they just don't register as keypresses in any standard way. I would like comments on why, and what methods, if any, may be available to detect such keys. Surely with the plethora of cheap multimedia keyboards out there, there is some way. In X, once you analyze scan codes generated by those keys with xev, you can assign keycodes locally wih xmodmap. In keyboard maps, you can reuse some exotic Fn key names available from historical mainframe terminals, unused on PC platform, such as F26 and Shift+F26 and so, I can't now remember the exact number limit for function key names, depends on how x libraries built. Works great for KDE, which recognizes these names well for shortcuts. I think the originator is rather pointing out the problem that the newer keyboards (e.g. those with the F-Lock key) doesn't even generate a scancode. So xev for example won't even register a keypress when one of those extra multimedia keys is pressed by the user... I had the same problem when I bought a new keyboard, but I just couldn't find a solution for it so I returned it and went back to one of my old IBM-clicky-click keyboards ;) -- Regards, Patrick Börjesson PGP signature: http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=getsearch=0x21792A5D PGP fingerprint: 74AF D4EF 6BDE CF77 16BE 6A29 CDB8 7607 2179 2A5D pgpw7mN7zHWUM.pgp Description: PGP signature
Re: [gentoo-user] P4P800 - Intel ICH5R - data recovery?
On Tuesday 19 July 2005 19:37, José Pedro Saraiva wrote: Thanks for the reply Colin =) If you remember your stripe size, then you should be able to plug your drives into any ICH5R-based motherboard and get your data back. Theoretically, you could plug your drives into any RAID whose BIOS does not write to the disks when creating an array and then recreate the array in the BIOS with the same stripe size. I don't know if software RAID can rebuild your array, but that seems like your best bet, lest you have a friend with a lot of SATA RAID controllers (s) he's willing to lend out. I already ordered another ICH5R motherboard (similar to my P4P800 but a new model, since my old one is not available anymore) to try that out. I'm almost sure that my stripe size is 64KB (default). If so, plugging my hard drives into the new board and creating a new array with the same stripe size will give me access to my data? Or is there the risk of loosing it all? Do you know if the ICH5R writes to the disks when creating the array? If all else fails and your data is priceless, grab a couple grand and look into professional data recovery, because unless you can find a super-geek, that will probably be your best bet. Unfortunately I cannot afford such a service, even though my data is crucial to me, they're just too expensive for my pocket. :-( José Pedro My one BIG FAT WARNING to you would be to think for 30 seconds or more before pushing any buttons when redoing your disks. Its very easy to accidentally format things when you don't know exactly what your doing... at least for me it is; I've done it :-p Wishing the best of luck, Patrick Rutkowski -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Re: [gentoo-user] IPtables statefull connection capable

You probably want all ESTABLISHED and RELATED traffic in both the incoming and outgoing direction, and NEW connections only outgoing. Additional you'll probably want NEW connections also in the incoming direction for the services you want to offer - that's how I interpret your last sentence. But you'll definately want ESTABLISHED and RELATED, too. Concept usually is: INPUT: - allow ESTABLISHED,RELATED - allow NEW for selected services FORWARD: - allow NEW,ESTABLISHED,RELATED from LAN to WAN - allow ESTABLISHED,RELATED from WAN to LAN OUTPUT: - allow NEW,ESTABLISHED,RELATED where OUTPUT rules are optional if OUTPUT's policy is set to ACCEPT. Current connections being monitored are listed and accessible in procfs. When playing with Linux as a router for UDP traffic, you may want to play with the state matching related sysctl's (also accessible via procfs) to adjust the timespan that the information is held. My VPN connections from LAN to WAN tend to time out otherwise. But that's just a side note. -hwh -- Thank you all, The explanation was very clear, I tough because its statefull its not necessary to add the ESTABLISHED,RELATED stuff.
