Re: [gentoo-user] Firefox not killing processes on close
On 11/10/2013 16:38, Dale wrote: Howdy, I have noticed something that really bugs me. I sometimes have a few Firefox sessions running. I do this because I have to be logged into a website with more than one user/password. Here is my issue. If I click the X box to close a session of Firefox, it doesn't seem to kill the process. I end up having to go to a Konsole and killing the process with either the kill command or pkill. Naturally, all the processes are named Firefox so I can't tell one from the other. That leads to me killing the wrong one at times. My question is this, why does Firefox not kill its processes as it should? When I click the X and it closes, it should kill the process right? When it does not kill correctly and I try to restart that session, I get the error that the session is already running. This has been going on for a while. What can I look for or do to correct this? Also, after large updates, I go to the boot runlevel, kill any processes that shouldn't be running, then go back to default runlevel. Sometimes, I have to kill quite a few processes to get a clean list. While this is not just a Firefox issue, it is just the one that gets in the way the most. It seems there is a underlying issue somewhere and Firefox is just one symptom. Anyone have thoughts on this? Thanks. Dale :-) :-) What version of Firefox? What addons (if any) do you use with Firefox?

Is this a result of me adding preserve-libs without changing
something in my env? :-/
No - see bug - https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=467772
Bunch of packages are failing with that at the moment.

Re: [gentoo-user] Server system date synchronizaion

Especially for guests that are resumed, or the whole virtualisation system is hibernated? (ntp refuses to resync after guest pause/save/restore/resume (known problem), even with tinker panic 0 That's not a bug, it's by design. If ntpd detects the clock is out by more than X seconds [1], it will not try to correct the difference, concluding that something is wrong and a human must decide. It can't easily tell the difference between a resumed guest (or even that it was resumed at all) and a severe problem. We fixed this by taking the easy route of least resistance; 1. run ntpdate on startup/restart once before ntpd starts 2. start ntpd as normal 3. a colleague wrote a $MAGIC_HOOK to detect resumed guests that runs ntpdate once True, it's a brutal solution and uses a baseball bat where some finesse might be less ugly, but it suits our needs just fine. [1] I forget what X is and am too lazy to look it up. Is it 30 seconds or thereabouts? When first started, the daemon normally polls the servers listed in the configuration file at 64-s intervals. In order to allow a sufficient number of samples for the NTP algorithms to reliably discriminate between correctly operating servers and possible intruders, at least four valid messages from the majority of servers and peers listed in the configuration file is required before the daemon can set the local clock. However, if the difference between the client time and server time is greater than the panic threshold, which defaults to 1000 s, the daemon will send a message to the system log and shut down without setting the clock.

I'm subscribed to whatever list I just posted on. Torrent clients listen for peers on a port. It always picks the default interface or route. It becomes a problem when you have two Internet connections. Oh right. I don't think any clients allow you to specify an interface. Only IPs and ports. Like in rtorrent: -b a.b.c.d Bind the listening socket to this IP -i a.b.c.d Change the IP that is sent to the tracker -p int-intSet port range for incoming connections -- staticsafe O ascii ribbon campaign - stop html mail - www.asciiribbon.org Please don't top post - http://goo.gl/YrmAb Don't CC me!

Re: [gentoo-user] netqmail fails to do CNAME lookup for lists.gentoo.org
On 3/23/2013 8:17, Sascha Cunz wrote: Hi list, I'm glad to see that my mail from yesterday did finally leave the queue of my netqmail install. I'm recently having trouble to send mail to lists.gentoo.org via my netqmail. It says that it is _temporarily_ unable to do a CNAME lookup. But mails stay in queue until they eventually bounce. I have now configured a static smtp route to pigeon.gentoo.org and mails seem to go through. I'm currently using google's DNS in /etc/resolv.conf (But the results from the DNS server of my ISP are the same): I think that the real problem is, that $(dig @8.8.8.8 lists.gentoo.org any) [1] doesn't give me a MX-Record at all. Also, directly asking for a MX-Record doesn't seem to report one[2]. I'm not too deep into DNS, so I'm asking for any clues on how to really solve this issue?
