However, if you _don't_ reinstall from CD, you may miss some essential registry settings and other stuff that windows puts all over the place. I'd recommend reinstalling from CD, then copying your old contents over the newly installed one. What is what I'm afraid of. Did anybody performed this operation? Lastly, what does the program do? My wife is a Dental Assistant, and I've been trying to convince her boss to switch to a computer based appointment and record system, but he doesn't want to spend any money... I know they don't want to spend much money of the program as the program are very expensive. The most important thing Dentists want from their programs is the ability to submit the claim electronically as they get paid faster; and basic recording operations for medical program. Best alternative I've found are: 1.) http://www.open-dent.com/ Though, this misinformed dentist settle on MS NET Framework so it can not be use with Linux as of yet, so even though it is GPL program it is useless for me. 2.) http://www.oemr.org/ This is intended for medical mostly but I think can be customized for dental use as well. I haven't test it yet as in order to use it you need to have PHP4 (they don't support PHP5 yet). Another advantage in OEMR, it is using SQL-Ledger for accounting, which we are using currently so it is an advantage. -- #Joseph -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

[gentoo-user] newly emerged apache permissions error
I set up a box to run asterisk and try various asterisk front ends on. This was back in January. I got gentoo installed and emerged apache2, php5, and mysql. Then I did not touch the box again until tonight. I cannot get apache to actually serve any pages. Forbidden You don't have permission to access /test.php on this server. Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request. It does not matter what file I ask it for, index.html, index.php, / , etc, I get the same error. I have a DocumentRoot plus newly a virtual host pointing to the same DocumentRoot with the right ServerName and teh directories are all owned by apache:apache, which is the user the server runs under. The files all have owner and group permissions. Everything is set to not deny and to allow all. I run apache2 on FreeBSD just fine and I cannot see anything in the config that should prevent this. Something about the default gentoo config or install it seems. Any hints or help is greatly appreciated.

So, if I want to do without /usr/portage, can I just install binary packages by untarring them to / ? Or is there other essential stuff that emerge does when you install a binary package? That depends on the ebuild. Check to see if it has any preinst or postinst instructions. If so, you'll have to arrange for these to be handled manually. Apart fro that, you should be able to unpack the tarball to /. You can safely ignore the error from tar about trailing garbage, portage tacks environment information onto the end of the tar. Rather than use quickpkg, it would probably be better to add buildpkg to FEATURES on the build box.

[gentoo-user] http-replicator fetching on the server
Holas,
I'm running http-replicator on a desktop (server). The laptop asks the
desktop for files correctly, and that works just fine.
The problem I'm seeing is on the desktop. Every night I do
# emerge world --update --deep --newuse --fetchonly
# /usr/bin/repcacheman
which gets all the files I'll need (into /usr/portage/distfiles), and then
moves all the files to http-rep cache (/var/cache/http-replicator).
The next time I run
# emerge -autvDN world
portage looks in /usr/portage/distfiles ($DISTDIR in make.conf), and, of
course, doesn't see the files. They've been moved
to /var/cache/http-replicator. Then portage grabs the files, without
consulting http-replicator.
Now, like I said, everything works fine for external machines. They
immediately use port 8080. It's just the desktop/http-rep server that
doesn't use want to use the http-rep cache.
Here are a few pertinent lines from /etc/make.conf
http_proxy=http://crichton:8080;
RESUMECOMMAND=/usr/bin/wget -t 5 --passive-ftp \${URI} -O \
\${DISTDIR}/\${FILE}
# ping crichton
PING localhost (127.0.0.1) 56(84) bytes of data.
Any idea what I have mis-configured?
Thanks.

With or without --deep- When run with --update only, emerge considers only those packages listed in world and their direct dependencies. Lower level dependencies won't be looked at, so portage won;t pick up the changed USE flag. From the man page --deep (-D) When used in conjunction with --update, this flag forces emerge to consider the entire dependency tree of packages, instead of checking only the immediate dependencies of the packages. As an example, this catches updates in libraries that are not directly listed in the dependencies of a package. -- Neil Bothwick Did you sleep well?

Ok, I know you must strip down stuff, but portage is the heart of Gentoo, without it, you strip your administrative tools also. I made a binary package with quickpkg, to install (with emerge --usepkg) on one of these PC's, but it complains about lots of stuff missing. You have no portage tree, you can't install using emerge... So, if I want to do without /usr/portage, can I just install binary packages by untarring them to / ? Or is there other essential stuff that emerge does when you install a binary package? You can, but its not certain to work, because there is more stuff involved in installing an app than just putting files at the right places. Note I'm not saying it won't work, it MAY work, but you can't guarantee. Many packages have post-install scripts, and some need checking to see if the environment is sane before install. I would appreciate comments on how to make this work - maybe by just leaving an essential subset of /usr/portage. Note, that I know I won't be able to emerge anything from source without most of the /usr/portage stuff, but I'm happy with that, as all these PC's are close images of each other, and we have one master copy with a larger HD. If I were you (that's MHO) I would leave portage there, its not THAT big anyway... But if there's no way to leave it and you're looking for alternative ways to do it, you'll have to put portage somewhere (disc, network, usb stick, second hard drive) to use emerge. -- Daniel da Veiga Computer Operator - RS - Brazil -BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK- Version: 3.1 GCM/IT/P/O d-? s:- a?

Also, from http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Download_Cache_for_LAN-Http-Replicator : Don't forget that portage needs mirrors! Edit GENTOO_MIRRORS in /etc/make.conf to add more http mirrors and place any ftp mirrors LAST. The default mirrors in gentoo leave something to be desired Use mirrorselect if you need help in selecting mirrors. Which makes me think about the connection it was making earlier. For those who think they know the answer, or want to figure it out with the information in this thread, please stop reading now. The spoiler is given below. The first download location in GENTOO_MIRRORS was an ftp site (ftp://ftp.gtlib.cc.gatech.edu). Since portage is looking for an http_proxy, calling an ftp site simply connects to the ftp site. Moving the ftp site to the end of the mirror list made everything work. Or at least it appears to work now. I'll know more tomorrow when another update cycle takes place. Thanks for the help, Dale.

The recommended application for this seems to be kino, but it seems that is only able to capture from ieee1394 devices, is this correct? So, is there any way to capture or download videos from the camera using the provided USB cable? Should I buy a DV cable (the camera has DV output)?Thanks in advance, best regardsJose

If you really mean everything, other responses are probably best, but you can pick choose much more finely. To start, you need kde-base/kdelibs , then kde-base/kdebase-startkde (incl 11 deps). Then you can choose individual packages from /usr/portage/kde-base/ .

[gentoo-user] Outlook MSG file conversion
Does anyone know of an app to convert outlook *.msg files to a text email? I have some individual email (*.msg) files from Outlook, not a .pst archive. I dragged-n-dropped the emails from crappy Outlook and now have them on my Gentoo box. I _thought_ they would have been stored as regular old email with one email in each file. Nope. Upon opening any of the MSG email files in VIM, all I see is binary crap. The only docs I have found on the Outlook MSG file format so far is: MSG files are outlook messages saved as files. They are saved as COM stuctured storage OLE2 compound documents or DocFile, which is the same technique used by Word, Excel and many many more. Can't MS even do email right?

If I remember right, last time I tried unmerging kdetoys it would return everytime I did an emerge -u. That was a couple of years ago, before /etc/portage/* appeared. Now, I thought that sooner or later monolithic KDE will be deprecated and so I decided to eventually bite the bullet and move onto the split ebuilds on this occasion. -- Regards, Mick -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
