[gentoo-user] courier-authlib libpam undefined symbol problem
I got a home imap server running the other day using courier-imap. Today, after a reboot, I couldn't log in any more. I tried two clients and got connection refused messages. I tried restarting courier-authlib and courier-imap-ssl several times, but this didn't work.

I just had to rebuild pretty much all of KDE. It went okay except that all of my alarms from kalarm are gone. I had hoped that they would be preserved like most configuration files. I have a recent backup. Is there any way to recover them from there? I don't see the database offhand.

Sorry, my last response got butchered. Gmane get's rediculous somethings
borderline upsurd on it's request to make lines shorter and other response
formating issues.
I have gotten ride of all of the blocking, by unmerging everthing kde I could

525 emerge --unmerge kde-base/kdegraphics
526 emerge --unmerge kde-base/kdemultimedia
snip
Before or after the emerge -uavDN kde-meta?
If you are removing stuff it doesn't matter. If you are remerging stuff it
should be after. If you do it before it will be built against the old version
again which is pretty pointless.
another pair of 'revdep-rebuild' seemed to have worked?
However, the last time I did this I got a ton of blocking isses.
One more retry. I post again if this does not work.
One of the KDE devs should put out a tool or script to completely
nuke kde, then let folks run
emerge -uavDN kde-meta' and be done with it. Disk space is cheap
and I do not have time to 'hack' at kde across 7 workstations.
Re compiling everything from from scratch is no bid deal. Waisting
lots of timer, per machine to migrate from monolithic to meta
has wasted quite a lot of time, and I still have 6 more machines to go.
So on the next machine, here's my steps to completely nuke kde
install kde-meta:
First:
# emerge --unmerge kde-base/kdeartwork
# emerge --unmerge kde-base/kdegames
# emerge --unmerge kde-base/kdeaddons
# emerge --unmerge kde-base/kdewebdev
# emerge --unmerge kde-base/kdeadmin
# emerge --unmerge kde-base/kdegraphics
# emerge --unmerge kde-base/kdemultimedia
# emerge --unmerge kde-base/kdepim
# emerge --unmerge kde-base/kdeutils
# emerge --unmerge kde-base/kdeedu
# emerge --unmerge kde-base/kdebase
# emerge --unmerge kde-base/kdetoys
Second:
Now remove all old kde 3.2, 3.3, and 3.4 kruft
# cd /var/db/pkg emerge -Cva kde-base/*-3.{2,3,4}*
# env-update source /etc/profile etc-update update-eix eupdatedb
Third:
clean up broken links
# revdep-rebuild -p
# revdep-rebuild
# emerge --sync
# env-update source /etc/profile etc-update
Fourth:
install kde-meta
emerge -uavDNp kde-meta
if blocking occurs, unmerge clocking packages and return to Second
emerge -uavDN kde-meta
Did I miss anything? Did I get anything out of order?
Please edit to make this a mechanical process, or add in
options at the right place to go the selection of
individual kde packages after installing kdebase-meta?
PS I sure hope this helps other avoid this time-sync.
sincerely,
James

Re compiling everything from from scratch is no bid deal. Waisting
lots of timer, per machine to migrate from monolithic to meta
has wasted quite a lot of time, and I still have 6 more machines to go.
You seem to have been more confused than enlightened by the tricks I posted.
If you want to nuke kde completely you should just do:
# cd /var/db/pkg emerge -Cva kde-base/*
It's as simple as that. Both Neil and I told you that a long time ago. This
nukes both new and old slots. Both split and monolithic. And allows you to
start with kde from scratch.
So on the next machine, here's my steps to completely nuke kde
install kde-meta:
First:
[SNIP]
There is no reason call emerge 12 times. Just use one command:
# emerge --unmerge
kde-base/kde{,artwork,games,addons,webdev,admin,graphics,multimedia,pim,utils,edu,base,toys}
That changes nothing though (except you forgot to unmerge kde-base/kde - the
above command includes that too). And this is unnecessary if you nuked kde
completely.
Second:
Now remove all old kde 3.2, 3.3, and 3.4 kruft
# cd /var/db/pkg emerge -Cva kde-base/*-3.{2,3,4}*
That also is only necessary if you did not nuke kde completely.
# env-update source /etc/profile etc-update update-eix eupdatedb
This is completely pointless after unmerging something.
Third:
clean up broken links
# revdep-rebuild -p
# revdep-rebuild
You can do that after emerging kde-meta-3.5. No reason to do it before.
# emerge --sync
# env-update source /etc/profile etc-update
Again this is completely pointless at this time.
Fourth:
install kde-meta
emerge -uavDNp kde-meta
if blocking occurs, unmerge clocking packages and return to Second
emerge -uavDN kde-meta
Blocking won't occur if you already removed the monolithic packages.
Did I miss anything? Did I get anything out of order?
Please edit to make this a mechanical process, or add in
options at the right place to go the selection of
individual kde packages after installing kdebase-meta?
Now you should run revdep-rebuild. You need to make up your mind if you want
to nuke everything or not. You keep saying you want to nuke kde completely
and yet follow advice that avoids nuking it completely. Assuming you really
do want to nuke kde completely (on your other computers):
# cd /var/db/pkg emerge -Cva kde-base/*
# emerge -uva kde-meta
# revdep-rebuild -p
# revdep-rebuild

nuke all occurances of kde

[gentoo-user] Re: kaudiocreator still giving me fits - added info
Hi all,
I have to eat a bit of crow on this one. The relevant portion of this
issue from my previous post as outlined below may not be entirely the
fault of kaudiocreator although, in self defense, this is the only
application that was reacting strangely after the upgrade to kde 3.5 and
as previously stated, under kde 3.4.3, this application worked flawlessly.
Last night, I tried installing grip. Despite my aversion to having a
lot of gnome stuff on my PC, I set out to prove that the problem was
entirely with kaudiocreator. This is where I have to eat crow because
grip froze too. So, I'm at a loss. I'm posting the section of
/var/log/messages where the process freezes.
I have to reiterate that the problem is not with the CD drive. The CD's
I am trying to rip *do not* have copy protection. I have intermittently
ripped a CD, or a portion of a CD using kaudiocreator under kde 3.5. I
have successfully burned a data CD with the drive. However,
kaudiocreator is not working as expected. The only thing that I can
think of is that I don't have some setting correct and I'm darned if I
can figure out what it is.

At the first of June, I posted saying that kaudiocreator kept freezing
during the ripping process. When it froze, ps -ax revealed that the
process of kaudiocreator and kscd both were in uninterruptible sleep
(i.e. they had a D beside them). When this happens, my system locks up
and I can't even open the CD tray. I have to push the reset button to
restart my system.
There is no consistency in what is going on. I have ripped 1 CD in
entirety, another kept freezing, but when I started kaudiocreator again,
I was able to rip the tracks a couple at a time. Sometimes it will rip
a track, start to encode (ogg vorbis) and then freeze. The only
commonality that the CD's have is the artist. They are all new (meaning
not used) and range from a release date of 1994 to 2006. The 2006
release ripped fine in kaudiocreator under kde 3.4.3, but won't rip
under kde 3.5.2. And it's not likely that it's a copy protection issue
since the 2006 release ripped fine under kde 3.4.3.

[gentoo-user] Null Modem Cables Between Windoze XP and Linux
I dug out of this ancient computer book (Upgrading and Repairing PCs 12th Ed.) this relic technology of the Null Modem Cable. It's a twisted Parallel Cable that allows 2 PCs to almost literally talk to each other. So, I found in the depths of some old computer hardware box this old Symantec null modem cable, plugged it between my X40 and XP Desktop, and hoped for the best. I was able to configure XP as the host with no difficulties, however, I'm not sure what to do about Linux. I'm looking though Kuroo for things about Null Modems, but I'd imagine there's a more command-line friendly way to do this, since I am very much pro-command line. I know there's always a way to dump commands into LPT1 and pray it doesn't call the NSA, but I think there's a more elegant way to do this. The reason why I decided to play with this relic of computer communications technology was because it said that it had the capacity to run at 2MB/sec, which is faster than my networking... or at least faster than my networking behaves. I want to shell out about $50 and get some gigabit ethernet junk from Frys one of these days, (I can roll my own Cat5e, so it's not a difficult thing) but I just wanted to test out this null modem stuff. I honestly am harbouring delusions of using the faster null modem stuff to directly sync my laptop with a future Linux CVS/Web server, so that I can have a update of the whole smash in my laptop once a day, rather than waiting for a slow internet connection remotely. It's just an idea I'm playing around with, and playing around is good (99% of the time, anyways). Thanks for any suggestions of where to start looking. I'll also be grepping (sorry, googling) through the Gentoo Wiki, however I don't expect I'd find anything in there, at least directly related. -- == GCv3.12 == GCS d-(++) s+: a?

A nul-modem though used to be serial and as such worked the normal tty stuff. That's right. Null modems are used for serial connections (i.e. to a serial console on your Linux box). Between two machines you would usually use a null modem cable and set up a new modem connection on the OS software side so that they communicate using a common protocol, e.g. tcp/ip. To send files you could use X Y or Zmodem and a comms application. Not entirely sure what a command line approach would be (a getty or anything that works over tcp/ip I guess?)

I never needed this because I don't have huge files. Hi thanks to all who answered, A few comments/responses: 1) We do not run KDE. 2) Some of the machines have Gnome but none of us like Nautilus very much for this solution: a) It does not, as far as we can tell, support a dual pane layout for easy file transfer. Rather it seems to require us to open two Nautilus windows and transfer between two windows instead of two panes. b) Most bothersome, if within Nautilus we bookmark directories on remote machines then every time we log in Gnome makes us type in passwords at login time instead of when we access the remote machine. Worse, if the machine which is bookmarked happens to be turned off then we get longs delays and error messages. In all the whole Nautilus solution seems to be quite unremarkable at this time. 3) Assuming this is 'fish://'' http://roo.no-ip.org/fish/screenshots.html then how is this a graphical file manager.
