Thanks. Pardon my english
1) You didn't specify where you want your user to auto login .
1.1) If you mean to auto log into console mode, then there is a way with
mingetty.
You have to add a line into your /etc/inittab file:
1:12345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty --noclear --autologin USERNAME tty1
Of course you have to do emerge mingetty before that.
1.2.) If you meant to auto login into your Desktop (KDE, Gnome,...etc.) the
easiest
way is to log into Gnome or KDE as root and to change the login manager
preferences.
2) As root execute the command: gpasswd -a USERNAME plugdev.
3) I have no idea.

Jason A. Booth wrote: On Sunday 11 June 2006 00:00, Teresa and Dale wrote: DontVTSwitch not found.. but much love for trying.. It was worth a look I guess. As to stopping emerge to logout and such, emerge screen and give it a try. When you want to run a program, such as emerge, that will take a while and you may want to leave it running in the background, you just type in screen -S name that is short and hit enter. Then type in your command. If you want to detach or go away while it is still running, just do a ctrl a then hit d. Screen takes a bit of getting used to but it comes in real handy sometimes. I use it for long compiles, OOo, KDE or the like. When you want to reconnect to check on it, just type in screen -r name you gave earlier. Here is a example of mine right now: [EMAIL PROTECTED] / # screen -list There are screens on: 10057.emerge(Detached) 30183.FAH1 (Detached) 2 Sockets in /var/run/screen/S-root. [EMAIL PROTECTED] / # I have two screens running, one for folding, one for a emerge -e system that I started a bit ago. If I want to check on the emerge one, I just type in screen -r emerge and it comes right up. Hope that helps. Maybe you can get the other sorted soon. Oh, check /etc/inittab and make sure these are in there: # TERMINALS c1:12345:respawn:/sbin/agetty 38400 tty1 linux c2:2345:respawn:/sbin/agetty 38400 tty2 linux c3:2345:respawn:/sbin/agetty 38400 tty3 linux c4:2345:respawn:/sbin/agetty 38400 tty4 linux c5:2345:respawn:/sbin/agetty 38400 tty5 linux c6:2345:respawn:/sbin/agetty 38400 tty6 linux That is what gives you those consoles.

[gentoo-user] OT - An annoying habit of logwatch (possibly cron?)
I have three computers on my network. All three of them have logwatch installed. Each one stays on pretty much all the time (I don't like rebooting - it takes too long.) Each morning I wake up and read my email. You'd think I'd get three logwatch reports - one from each computer, right? Nope. I get at least six, sometimes more. I look at the time stamps; the first ones are sent out at 3:00am. The next set it sent out at 3:05 with the exact same information. It's very annoying.

So my assumption is that the other file is a left over from a previous version of logwatch.

Hi! I'm trying to get the emerge logs mailed to my user. Problem is that I've set postfix to listen only on unix sockets (i.e. it refuses tcp smtp-connections) and I want it that way, for now. One solution would be PORTAGE_ELOG_SYSTEM=custom and do some mail -s-magic. I don't know how portage would output the info to get this to work however. Another solution would be to fix the mail-module (/usr/lib/portage/pym/elog_modules/mod_mail.py) to accept non-smtp mail as well. Problem is that I don't know python... Anyone that has the same (or similar) problem? A hint or two would be very much appreciated.

I use Thunderbird, Outlook, and the Gmail webgui all between different computers and different accounts, and lists, etc. I have them configured to view messages as threaded. Some people don't do that. But enough people on mailing lists, especially UNIX/linux based ones, do do that, that it's become a best practice. And net-iquette tends to favor best practices.

[gentoo-user] Can't run `X -configure' successfully.
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Jason's recent inquiry about the alternate terminals caused me to revisit an issue that I've had for some time. AFAIK, I don't have an xorg.conf. I've tried running `X -configure -verbose' and it fails with a Signal 11. There are a bunch of modules that have invalid references, but none of them are the modules that should be used for my video card. I've looked at the xorg.conf.example, but can't really make heads or tails of it in regards to my specific equipment. Ironically, I have no problem running gdm, and then logging into KDE. So I know Xorg is working, I assume with some sort of default configuration. But there are little things that don't quite jive. One of them is the alternate terminals. Another is the fact that my 4-button wheel mouse, isn't recognized as a wheel mouse. While looking closely at /var/log/Xorg.0.log, I noticed that Xorg had been built under a different kernel. So, I re-emerged Xorg under the new kernel. Which spawns a tangential question: How can I tell what other programs on my system would benefit from being re-compiled under the new kernel - instead of re-emerging world? Unfortunately, recompiling xorg under the new kernel didn't seem to make a difference as far as generating a new conf file, but there are some notable differences. One is that gKrellm with the glass 2 theme is no longer clear. So, if anyone could help with either the xorg.conf issue, or the new-kernel-rebuild question, I'd appreciate it.

You already have the monolithic kde packages installed and it looks like you have parts of the kdepim-meta package as well for some reason. If you want to emerge kdepim-3.5.2-r2 you'll have to unmerge all those kde packages that are blocking it as they are actually part of kdepim. If you're not sure what the 'split' ebuilds or the *-meta packages are for, basically starting with kde 3.4 a new set of ebuilds were created with all the various parts of kde split up into hundreds of individual packages so that users were not forced to install whole chunks of kde when they only wanted a few particular programs installed. kdepim-meta is basically just the kdepim package split up into a couple dozen smaller ebuilds for each individual program or library that makes up kdepim.

If you really can't get it to work, you can go on using Rp-pppoe: just omit/reverse steps (1-2) restore your old /etc/conf.d/net ; there's a section in net.example confirming this. -- ,, SUPPORT ___//___, Philip Webb : [EMAIL PROTECTED] ELECTRIC /] [] [] [] [] []| Centre for Urban Community Studies TRANSIT`-O--O---' University of Toronto -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

I seem to have lost some screen real estate. ;-) xvidtune can help here, although generally with modern hardware there is no need to specify scan rates at all in the xorg.conf file. With DDC monitors, X can detect what the available scan rates are. If you post the Monitor, Device, and Screen sections from the generated xorg.conf, we can probably give you better advice on these. -Richard -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
Re: [gentoo-user] An alternative to http-replicator
On Sun, Jun 11, 2006 at 08:18:11AM +, Mick wrote How does boa compares with http-replicator in terms of functionality/security? boa is a lean+mean+fast webserver. See http://www.boa.org for details. PS. Other than not running portmapper is there a way of securing it? It has to be accessed by all machines that want to nfs-mount on the server, so they can ask it what port nfs is running on. Restrict access to only the clients that need to nfs-mount on the server. The usual method is iptables. For defense in depth, you can also use inet.d and hosts.allow/hosts.deny. I'm not an nfs expert. Is it possible to force nfs to a specific port on both the client and server such that they'll talk without handshaking via portmapper first? -- Walter Dnes [EMAIL PROTECTED] In linux /sbin/init is Job #1 My musings on technology and security at http://tech_sec.blog.ca -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Now I have to pull in a bunch of other gnome shit just to run evo. And it's not just that it has to be installed, now I have to start gnome-setings-daemon any time I want to run evo and see icons. That wouldn't be so bad, but gnome-settings-daemon screws up my fonts and mouse acceleration settings from KDE. Every application started after running gnome-settings-daemon uses different font sizes. Yeah, I could probably start a gnome session to configure things to my liking, but what happens when I change my mind on something? Now I have to try and keep two different desktop configurations in sync... For the last several years Gnome and KDE have been moving towards playing nicely together, allowing users to mix-and-match applications at will. This dependancy on gnome-settings-daemon, and it's inability to play nicely with KDE, is a HUGE step backwards IMO.

You can 'emerge module-rebuild' and run that after each kernel upgrade. Although the typical symptom of needing to rebuild an out-of-tree module is that something breaks on reboot! :- For example, if have the 'fglrx' driver in your xorg.oconf, then you are using ATI's proprietary driver, and when you upgrade to a new kernel and reboot X will fail to start until you re-merge ati-drivers. But if you are using the open source 'ati' or 'radeon' drivers, you will not have a problem. So module-rebuild is really meant to be run immediately after updating the kernel, but before you reboot.

[gentoo-user] Module philosophy: Compile-in or Load
I was wondering what gentoo-users think and practice about kernel modules. Do most compile them in the kernel or load them at boot-up. Note that I'm _NOT_ talking about those modules that have to be compiled in such as for your filesystem. This is about the other ones. I generally like to load them at boot-up. One reason is that I have heard that for suspend or hibernate to work, some modules have to be unloaded. On the other hand, compiling them in results in faster boot times. So, what do gentoo-users think?
