Re: [gentoo-user] Using java-config with manually installed JDKs

2006-02-05 Thread Rafael Fernández López

 Hi,

 I've manually instaled the sun-jdk, but i wish i could add it to the
 java-config. is it possible?


One question... why did you install manually sun-jdk? All available
versions are on portage...

Hi,

I don't use doxygen and I haven't got it installed neither. Well it seems
that there is a bug on that code. Check bugzilla and see if that's only
yours or if it happened to someone else.

You could add this version of doxygen to package.mask and try to emerge a
previous version (or don't add it to package.mask and go emerging a
previous one with emerge =what-ever/whatever-ver.sion).

Bye,

[gentoo-user] Lost my coreutils

Have stuffed up and accidentally un-merged my coreutils: now can't emerge 
either what was current (5.2.1-r7) or newer version (5.3.0-r1) and needless

The disadvantage of this is that pmount uses the real device name, not

 I'll try to look into it tonight (away from my PC now) and get back to
 you.

Sorry, it's taken me some time to look into this (working all hours at the 
moment!)

Check if your /etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf has a destination/filter like this:
=
#This is the source of the messages to be logged.
source src { unix-stream(/dev/log); internal(); pipe(/proc/kmsg); };
source kernsrc { pipe(/proc/kmsg); };

#This is the destination where we want to capture some of the messages.
destination syslog { file(/var/log/syslog); };

#This the relevant filter.
filter f_syslog { not facility(authpriv, mail); };

#This connects them together.
log { source(src); filter(f_syslog); destination(syslog); };
=

To rotate the logs I have set this up in my /etc/logrotate.conf:
=
# when /var/log/syslog gets big 
/var/log/syslog
{   
rotate 1
weekly
size=1M
}
=

Not sure if the above is syntatictally perfect, or a bit crude, but it works on 
two of my boxen without apparent problems.  Someone with scripting skills may 
want to comment on improving it?

[gentoo-user] Problem with kernel 2.6.15-gentoo-r1, nvidia-driver and fbsplash, splashutils

2006-02-05 Thread Daniel Pielmeier
Hello,

i have tried to update my kernel from 2.6.24-gentoo-r5 to 2.6.15-gentoo-r1.
Now when i boot up, my splash-theme starts a few seconds after the
message OK, now booting the kernel as before when it started
immediately after this message.
Ok but the main problem is, before starting up gdm the system hangs and
i can do nothing else anymore. Without nvidia-driver installed i can log
in in textmode so i think it is a problem with the nvidia-driver and or
splashutils and fbsplash.

For your information, to update my kernel i used my old config-file with
make menuconfig which shows me the following output

I would boot with install cd and extract latest stage3 or try to extract only 
missing files. then chroot, emerge --sync, emerge coreutils and emerge 
--update

dont know is this best solution, at least i did it some time ago when after 
update system was broke.

Try cat /proc/sys/kernel/hotplug.  In your case, it should say

However, we are _assuming_ that the system is starting udev.  You
should check the first few lines of the system boot to make sure.  You

[gentoo-user] Transparency mostly works with KDE 3.5.1 + Xorg 6.8.2

2006-02-05 Thread Roy Wright

Howdy,

Played around and got Transparency working with KDE 3.5.1.  In the past
it had been extremely slow.  This time I found:

 http://gentoo-wiki.com/TIP_Xorg_X11_and_Transparency

which proved to be very useful (THANK YOU to the author(s)).  I was missing:

Option  backingstore true

from my xorg.conf.

I have noticed one problem.  When I open KDE's Control Center, and I resize
the window, the left panel is filled with the background.  Another way 
to duplicate
the problem is to open KWrite and do a resize, then the main panel is 
filled with

the background.  I've tried with ARGB enabled/disabled, no joy.  Any ideas?

Should I try with xorg-x11 7.0?

Here's my Devices section from my xorg.conf:

Section Device
   OptionCursorShadow True
   Option  TwinView True
   Option  TwinViewOrientation RightOf
   Option  MetaModes 
1600x1200,1600x1200;1280x1024,1280x1024;1024x768,1024x768;800x600,800x600

 Thanks for the ksvg idea and will be reall greatful if firefox worked

The only thing I can thinl about this is: what version of Firefox are
you using (literally, which ebuild).

The early versions of Firefox (1.0.x to approx 1.5-r4) used the mozsvg
USE flag to enable firefox to load SVG images.

However, the Changelog says:

*mozilla-firefox-1.5-r4 (23 Dec 2005)

  23 Dec 2005; Jory A. Pratt [EMAIL PROTECTED]
  +mozilla-firefox-1.5-r4.ebuild:
  canvas and svg now default

and indeed, the mozsvg USE flag is no longer available to firefox, but
my firefox seems to render svg images fine. I tested by going to

http://www.linuxrising.org/svg_test/test.html

and opening one of the images in a new tab.

http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/Test/20030813/svggen/styling-css-01-b.svg

I'm using Firefox 1.5-r9 (self-compiled, not the -bin).

So I'm not quite sure what your problem is, but it seems that it must
relate in some fashion to the specific version of FF (maybe you're using
a version that needed the USE flag, but you don't have it enabled).

Hi!

I compiled coreutils 5.2.1-r7 with your CFLAGS and only the NLS
USE-flag. Assuming you have gcc-3.4 installed it should work.

http://members.chello.at/martin-ullrich/coreutils-5.2.1-r7.tbz2

Just boot from a live-cd (e.g. the gentoo install-cd), and extract the
file with tar -xjpf coreutils-5.2.1-r7 (adjust the command to fit
your needs).

If it doesn't work, tell me/us.

   Hi,
   Not very much but remember when compiled my first 2.6.15 kernel with
   gensplash at the end as einfo was a message about gensplash being very
   slow booting 2.6.15 kernels so added one additional option to Grub:
   video=vesafb:mtrr:3 (from the einfo text).
   But as i start w/o graphical login screen (XDM,GDM,KDM) can't test
   them. HTH.Rumen

 Hi,
 Frankly don't know just added this to the rest so here's the whole line:
 ... vga=791 video=vesafb:mtrr:3 splash=verbose,theme:emergence
 CONSOLE=/dev/tty1 quiet
 This seems to be some kind of alternate config, used one like yours too.

  There's no requirement for ln being a symlink. Instead, you could
  also copy busybox to ln - cp busybox ln.

 cp is from coreutils too :)

Ah, but busybox does not have to be linked to the command names - you can do

busybox ln -s busybox ln

Any of the commands that busybox provides when linked/symlinked are available 
by just calling busybox with the name of the command as the first argument.

[gentoo-user] One host, two NIC's...

2006-02-05 Thread Jeff
Hey all. Linux question - I have this nice big dual Xeon server, with 
two NIC's. Where, how, when, why, can I configure this beast, not as a 
router, but just as a host with two ways to get in.


eth0 is 192.168.0.39
eth1 is 192.168.1.139

I would like to be able to associate both NIC's to the same hostname, 
'foo' - how is this accomplished?

I think that is useless. The only thing you have to do for unsubscribing
is visit www.gentoo.org if you can't remember how, go to Lists and read,
that's not so hard.

There are lots of people unsubscribing and subscribing, only a few ones
write here for unsubscribing, we cannot do anything against that.

But I'm against adding that to EVERY MAIL posted, that would increase

Yes!  :)  What's the fun in taking binaries from others when you 
have busybox aboard, and it is there exactly for this purpose.

If you don't like trial and error, first make the link for cat:

  busybox ln -s busybox /bin/cat

Then cut and paste the previously given list of /bin/* to a file 
named 'list', and then make all the links in one go:

And then emerge coreutils.  Much more interesting.

I am not sure, but check what you do have in
/usr/portage/media-video/xine-ui . Just a few hours after my last sync I
have got just one ebuild - stable xine-ui-0.99.4-r3.ebuild

If you find it, check its contents - what keywords are there for
your architecture.

I see: KEYWORDS=~alpha amd64 ~hppa ppc ppc64 sparc x86

If your arch has proper keyword, then look inside
/etc/portage/package.mask and search for xine-ui in
/usr/portage/profiles/package.mask
(grep xine /usr/portage/profiles/package.mask)

You may want to check other package.mask files in your portage profile
hirarchy.

Having said all this, I suggest you issue the command:
  emerge -pv xine-ui
as it usually, pretty verbosely, says what is going on.

Example:
  #  emerge -pv toxine
  These are the packages that I would merge, in order:
  Calculating dependencies
  !!! All ebuilds that could satisfy toxine have been masked.
  !!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request:

  # Toxine needs to be verified with upstream for a few issues.
  For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man page or

You do have the latest portage, don't you?

am trying to remerge the package with:

  ebuild /usr/portage/sys-apps/coreutils/coreutils-5.3.0-r2.ebuild merge

And here too it keeps failing at different places all the time.

If you're still having fun, get yourself to #gentoo and ask there 
what to try next.

Of course. 1.0.8178 is the latest release from Nvidia. It's not a beta,

as far as I know, this is the correct solution; the other point of an
overlay is that you keep an eye on it, and if an overlay ebuild does in
fact make it into the regular Portage tree, you should remove the
overlay build from the overlay and let Portage take over (since, if I
recall something that Neil said some time ago, overlay ebuilds will
always supercede Portage ebuilds if they duplicate each other,
version-wise). That's what works for me, anyway.

As in /usr/portage also in portage overlay ebuild is
stable if you mark it stable using KEYWORDS.

Portage overlays are our 'private' portage trees, and they are in no thing

[gentoo-user] Ebuild and emacs enough is enough

2006-02-05 Thread Harry Putnam
I'm not sure where to log this complaint, its not a real bug.

I've had about 6 or 7 emerges like emerge -v -u -D world break in the
middle somewhere because emacs has been called to byte compile or
whatever, however whoever is writing this stuff is calling emacs
WITHOUT taking the normal precations used by savvy emacs users.

That is, to call emacs with `emacs -q --no-site-file CMDS'.  This is
starndard practice to use when calling emacs during builds.

But on a 6-7 occassions, the last in the middle of emerge -v -u -D
--newuse world'

Not something you are likeley to set and watch for something like
this.  So you come back in hour and half to find its errored out in
the middle because emacs wasn't called with simple protective flags
like -q --no-site-file.

-q (don't use an .emacs init file)  --no-site-file (don't load any
 site-start.el files)

People might have code in either of those places that will cause emacs
to give unexpected output during build.

site-start.el is a tradition older than gentoo.  

Gentoo installs don't have it but many long term emacs users use this
file to set code for system wide stuff.  That is what it is for.
Emacs will load it before anything else (except `default.el') if it is
found in the path.  That is why it is wise to use --no-site-file when
calling emacs to bytecompile.

In my site-start.el I have code that causes emacs to tell me what it
is loading anytime a library or file is loaded.  That output can be
quite handy when debugging things emacs, but it breaks an emerge.

So unless I realize this particular emerge will call emacs and move
site-start.el out of the path it will be loaded and break the emerge
becasue someone didn't have sense enough to call emacs the standard
way:  emacs -q --no-site-file WHATEVER
   
Where do I need to take this complaint?

[gentoo-user] Switched to UDEV and now I have lost wlan0 and hostapd won't work...

2006-02-05 Thread Daevid Vincent
After the essentially forced upgrade, I'm now running kernel
2.6.15-gentoo-r1 (udev) from 2.6.9 (devfs). 

I have a Senao Engenius 200 mW PCMCIA card in a PCMCIA/PCI adapter in my
server -- this card is then the wireless AP for my network.

I can't get my wlan0 to show up like it used to, therefore hostapd won't
start.

daevid# /etc/init.d/hostapd start
 * Starting wlan0
 *   Bringing up wlan0
 * 10.10.10.1/24
 wlan0 does not exist
 * ERROR:  Problem starting needed services.
 * hostapd was not started.

I used to do this after each kernel compile:

emerge -v  net-wireless/hostap-driver \
 net-wireless/hostap-utils \
 net-wireless/hostapd

And previously I loaded the modules via /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6

#hostap
#hostap_crypt_wep
#hostap_crypt_ccmp
#hostap_crypt_tkip
#hostap_cs

The driver now mentions I should use the newer one in the 2.6.15 kernel.
Therefore I've commented out the above, and did not use the
net-wireless/hostap-driver. I compiled the driver directly into the kernel,
NOT as a module this time either.

This shows in dmesg, so it appears to be loaded:

orinoco 0.15rc3 (David Gibson [EMAIL PROTECTED], Pavel Roskin
[EMAIL PROTECTED], et al)
orinoco_pci 0.15rc3 (Pavel Roskin [EMAIL PROTECTED], David Gibson
[EMAIL PROTECTED]  Jean Tourrilhes [EMAIL PROTECTED])
Loaded prism54 driver, version 1.2
hostap_plx: 0.4.4-kernel (Jouni Malinen [EMAIL PROTECTED])
hostap_pci: 0.4.4-kernel (Jouni Malinen [EMAIL PROTECTED])

/dev has 1490 entries, but none of them look useful here. I saw some folks
mentioning /dev/wifi0 or /dev/eth* but I don't have either of them showing.

daevid# iwconfig
eth0  no wireless extensions.
eth1  no wireless extensions.
lono wireless extensions.

eth0 is my outside network (ie. Cable company) and eth1 is my inside LAN --
both of them are working fine.

I saw this:
http://www.mail-archive.com/debian-laptop@lists.debian.org/msg46547.html
But I don't know what to look for in /dev that would show upon plug/unplug.
Do I really even need to program a script like this? 

I see there is net-wireless/linux-wlan-ng, but I'm pretty sure I don't need
that, as that's what hostap does right?

So, what am I missing or not doing right?

[gentoo-user] Getting at archives on tapes

2006-02-05 Thread Brett I. Holcomb
I have a scsi tape library and a backup program that creates datasets of tar 
files on the tapes.  I gather each dataset is a tar file.  I would like to be 
able to access each of these tar files.  At this point I can tar 
-tvf /dev/tape0 and see the file that contains the tape label.  But I can't 
get beyond that.  I've tried skipping to the next file, records, set mark 
using mt with no luck.

Any tips on how to do this?

Thanks.

RE: [gentoo-user] Switched to UDEV and now I have lost wlan0 and hostapd won't work...

2006-02-05 Thread Daevid Vincent
So after dicking with this some more, I'm noticing this:

daevid ~ # ls /sys/class/net/
eth0  eth1  lo

shouldn't there be something else in there for my wifi card?

And would it show up here or not?

Re: [gentoo-user] eix problem after portage upgrade

 Hi
 
 I'm running stable primarily but recently I decided to go to Portage
 2.1.  After doing that I am having problems with eix. eix considers
 all ebuild hard masked. It prints SRC_URI in the hopepage field and
 it prints dependencies in the description field. I have posted som
 info below that I hope will help troubleshoot this problem. If any
 further info is required please ask for it.  Thanks in advance for
 any replies to this mail.

Portage 2.1 uses a new caching method, so you should inform eix
about this by adding line:
PORTDIR_CACHE_METHOD=backport
to /etc/eixrc

After update-eix everything should be ok.

Yes, it would.  Looks like whatever driver(s) you are loading are not
recognizing the card.  Can you provide the lspci -nv output for that
card?
