[gentoo-user] locale nightmare
After much labor, I managed to clean my system (i.e., revdep-rebuild -p is happy). However, I started having locale problems (which I hadn't formerly). It shows up with perl and vim. I want the system to recognize Portuguese accented characters but otherwise to use English as general language (meaning the language used in error messages in bash, etc). I didn't have the file /etc/env.d/02locale (can't imagine why). $ cat /etc/env.d/02locale LANG=en_US.UTF-8 LC_TYPE=pt_PT.UTF-8 LC_MONETARY=[EMAIL PROTECTED] I followed (more or less) http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Create_an_UTF-8_enabled_system (It says LC_ALL=it_IT.UTF-8 [EMAIL PROTECTED] but isn't this wrong? man locale says LC_ALL overrides LC_*, if I understood correctly.) Well, perl is not happy: $ perl -e perl: warning: Setting locale failed. perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings: LANGUAGE = (unset), LC_ALL = (unset), LC_MONETARY = [EMAIL PROTECTED], LC_TYPE = pt_PT.UTF-8, LANG = en_US.ISO-8859-1 are supported and installed on your system. perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale (C) Writing in vim gives all sorts of silly output.

[gentoo-user] Thunderbird and IMAP
Hi everyone, I recently migrated from Evolution to Mozilla Thunderbird and I must say that I has been a really good move ;-). However, I have a couple of problems to fix before finishing the migration; firstly, I can browse the main folder in an IMAP server, but I can't browse subfolders, although I could with Evolution (and still can). On the other hand, I've got loads of contacts in Evolution that I'd like to transfer to Thunderbird without copying all them by hand. Any help with either of these two problems?

[gentoo-user] Hold on portage feature requests
Hello all, The subject says it all: no more feature requests for portage (the package manager) until further notice. This does not include submitting of patches that add new features. Further notice will likely mean when the next major version of portage becomes stable. The reason behind this is that at approximately two thirds of bugs received are feature requests and they are drowning at the real bugs. More importantly, the critical bugs are becoming very hard to keep track of. This, at a time when we are focusing on fixing major and critical bugs only so as to get the next version completed quicker. Most of the current feature requests will be available at the time when the next version goes stable (and that which isn't should be relatively painless to implement) so don't worry that things will go stagnant. However, if you are worried, I'll be posting a weekly summary of portage bug activity to gentoo-portage-dev@gentoo.org from now on.

Regarding loop-AES I've read it needs some heavy patching here and there, I don't want to do any patching myself because I am likely to loose track of it. It provides rougly the equivalent security as loop-AES in single-key mode (where a single key is used to encrypt every block). loop-AES also supports multi-key mode, where 64 different keys are used to encrypt the blocks. Multi-key makes certain kinds of attacks (specifically, watermark) more difficult, but is slower. However, I seem to recall reading somewhere in the last couple of weeks that dm-crypt was also getting multi-key support...maybe in the mm-kernel, or for 2.6.13... Single key is enough for me. I know I don't need a key, but I do want a key (stored in a remobable modia) encripted with a passphrase I will be able to change, or best, my wife can have the key protected with a different passphrase than I do. Beyond that, encripting with a key is much better than doing that with a passphrase because the passphrase can be cracked (dictionary attack) while the key-encripted that can't. Well, technically, anything can be cracked given enough time and computing power. Yes, ok. I should have added a 'practically' there somewhere. For using different passwords, this is possible. You would need to encrypt the same key file with gpg to two different .gpg filesyour wife can use one, and you can use the other. If the key files are stored on separate pieces of removable media, then you each have your own keys to the system. That's the idea, that scheme plus the best superted method out fo the box (or the net, hehehe). I believe it is cryptoloop, but I am not sure.

[gentoo-user] change dpi in xorg
Hello! I want to know if dynamic changes of dpi are possible in xorg, and if yes how to do it... here is more specific explanation of my problem. Recently i had fun with tv-out, i want to connect tv through radeon 9700 and fglrx driver, it worked, better or worse. But i found that when i change resolution, which is needed in my situation (i use 1280x1024 on crt monitor, and tv works on 1024x768 maximal resolution), dpi changes too, fonts are smaller, and unreadable, 1024x768 isn't very bad but using this may be hard... Also when i add second monitor to x dpi settings changes if i don't specify my own setting. I never used smaller resolutions than my default so i don't even notice this problem earlier. So there is my question if i can change dpi dynamically, i can do it when starting x, with kdm kdmrc file (kde 3.4.1 version) or DisplaySize section in xorg.conf but this works in static way, once for one resolution, if i use RandR to change resolution dpi setting will be recalculated. -- Michal Kurgan -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

[gentoo-user] question about files as disks
I'm helping some people using gentoo and one of the tasks is the production of flash memory updates for the firewall.

Re: [gentoo-user] [OT] Apache Virtual Host
To use virtual hosting with Apache2, you should them up in the /etc/apache2/conf/vhosts/vhosts.conf file. Then you need to add this directive within the Virtual Host block:- directory /usr/local/koha/opac/cgi-bin/ Order allow,deny Allow from all /directory Repeat this section for /usr/local/koha/opac/htdocs/ This should get it working.

In other mails from the thread we've reached to the point of knowing that mutt is reencoding the chars. Since you seem to know about libraries and calls to functions, do you know a method to track this issue? I've been thinking maybe an strace to mutt, but y don't know what to search for, and strace gives lots of info. strace gives lots of information, but sometimes you can reduce it by looking only at specific calls. Usually what I'm interested in from strace in this type of problem is the exec's and open's it shows. I'm not sure what mutt's doing either. But if it's recoding the information, it's doing either via runtime library or via an external program. Another tool is ltrace, which would (like strace, a lot of information) show the library calls mutt makes. That's useful in this sense to see if it's doing something with iconv. So the question is: what would you do to track this problem? I'd probably poke at the strace and ltrace results enough to get a sense of generally what it's doing, then grep through mutt's sources to see where it's doing _that_. Well, thank you very much, and everybody else who has replied. Finally i didn't need do poke through sources. The problem was that since i change to utf-8 from latin1, my configuration files remained in latin1, one of them was ~/.muttrc wich contained the first line of this mail, with the word decía encoded in latin1. So when mutt was compossing the temporal mail in /tmp for vim it found decía and said to itself: this is latin1, let's encode the rest with this and so it re-encoded my already utf-8 chars in utf-8 again. The solution was to encode ~/.muttrc in utf-8. Also the same effect is produced with an .alias or .signature file in another encoding, so be aware! :) Like i said, i've been through the FAQ, and searched the web using google, the last thing after the mail from Thomas was narrow my search using google groups and this string: utf-8 vim mutt and it gives 199 hits, from which i've read 50 when the reply come through mutt list. I think i'm going to edith the mutt faq now since it's in a wiki.

[gentoo-user] ethereal dies abruptly
Hello, Ethereal use to work perfectly. Recently I upgraded to the newest (portage) version of Ethereal. Now, when I terminate a capture session, the entire Ethereal application dies off. Is there a bug (I could not find) or did the default configuration change or did I miss something that I need to configure, to keep the Ethereal application running even after capture terminations? If I try to restart a live running sessoin, it dies too. The previous (portage) version of ethereal did not behave like this? Is there a config file or somewhere in the ebuild I could check the settings upon initialization? Nothing I've found in the man pages or /usr/share/ethereal/help seems prevent this crashing after a capture session is terminated puzzled. James -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Btw, I greped the config for random/urandom, there was nothing found.
Hm, where should I look?
There's no Kconfig option because the random number generator is a
required feature. I don't see how it could be a udev issue because
the /dev/urandom device file is either there or not and after that
it's the kernel's responsibility. I would build a new kernel.

You can pretty quickly determine if it is a kernel problem or a udev
problem by adding a
'ls -l /dev/urandom' to /etc/init.d/urandom:
start() {
[...]
ls -l /dev/urandom # debug strangeness
ebegin Initializing random number generator
umask 077
dd if=/dev/urandom of=/var/run/random-seed count=1 /dev/null
Also, only the display options for devfs were removed from 2.6.12, the
code and config option in .config are still there. Can you double check
your kernel config, and make sure that # CONFIG_DEVFS_FS is not set.
I think if you copied an old kernel config, you could have devfs support
still in your kernel, which might cause some strange behavior. I'm not
sure.

[gentoo-user] Suggestions for a TV Box
Hey Guys, I've got a reasonably stripped down gentoo box (P3-733) with a good video card running in my living room, with the TV as its monitor and a wireless keyboard and mouse. Sounds great so far, doesn't it? But what shall I do with it? It has good TV out capability but no TV in. I have freevo running at the moment, but not MythTV, I'm not really brave enough yet, it seems pretty complicated to set up (I have exactly zero MySQL experience). So, how would you go about getting a good computing experience out of an older computer with a TV output? What do people think would make a nice window manager? It would be kind of cool to get things like web-browsing or email up and running. I'm kind of thinking some kind of non-window based interface would be cool, like what you see on palm devices and such. As well as locking it down to nice big fonts that can be easily read on a TV screen. So what do people think? At the moment its primary function is to grab movies and stuff off of my NFS and play them throught the TV, but I'm sure there is potential for it to be so much more!
