Unmerging the old gcc should take care of this.

However, if might want to keep a 3.x gcc (e.g. app-emulation/qemu needs
it to build), have a look at your /etc/ld.so.conf.
Lately, I noticed on a Gentoo x86 machine with both gcc versions 3.4.x
and 4.1.x installed that this file was a bit messed up, i.e. the old gcc
libs got preferred over /lib /usr/lib etc. (though that shouldn't happen
on an amd64 multilib system).

My own little workaround:
echo 'LDPATH=/lib:/usr/lib:/usr/local/lib'  /etc/env.d/04basic-ldpath
env-update


I kinda remember wanting to search for existing bugs / opening a new
report, but it seems I've forgotten about that.

[gentoo-user] [OT] Help with Perl Datetime + Epoch

2007-08-13 Thread Ow Mun Heng
Been struggling with a new script I'm porting over from bash because
perl's DBI is much more elegant than my previous usage of sqsh.

I'm having trouble converting from a datetime into a unix epoch
timestamp.

under bash, this is done.

date = -MM-DD HH:MM:SS
epoch_date = date -d $date +%s

$date
Mon Aug 13 14:39:48 MYT 2007
$date -d 2007-08-13 14:39:48 +%s

Under perl, I have no idea how this can be achieved.
Neither localtime, timelocal or AFAICT, DateTime can achieve this
easily.

The DateManip module may have what you need. From its description:

This is a set of routines designed to make any common date/time 
manipulation easy to do...From the very beginning, the main focus of 
Date::Manip has been to be able to do ANY desired date/time operation 
easily


See http://search.cpan.org/~sbeck/DateManip-5.44/Manip.pod or do an 
'emerge -av DateManip'

Maybe I'm confusing what you're looking for, but a look at 'perldoc
DateTime' shows that the perl DateTime module has a 'epoch' function:

 $epoch_time  = $dt-epoch;
 # may return undef if the datetime is outside the range that is
 # representable by your OS's epoch system.

So if you create your datetime object with the new() function, you can 
simply output the epoch time over.

As another OOT suggestion, check out Class::DBI as something even more 
elegant than DBI.  I've been using it for the last year or so and LOVE
it's simplicity and OO-ness compared to DBI.

Yepp.. It's fine to get the current time's epoch via DateTime.

What I want is actually to convert from a datetime into an epoch..

eg: User supplied Datetime = 2007-08-13 14:39:48
I want that Datetime converted into an Epoch Format.

 I'd say check in your BIOS to see what power options there are - some
 BIOSes can change the action on receiving a power button signal.


Thanks for your suggestions. Init 0 did not seem to make a change, then I 
looked at all the BIOS options and turned off some settings that were on, or 
reverse - not always understanding what they were to do. Now it seems to work 
correctly. Perhaps it was a setting that said the power button should wake

Re: [gentoo-user] Re: OT :video cameras and gentoo

2007-08-13 Thread Garry Smith


Hi James
i have a sony digital camera that takes movies, and it just 
shows up as a usb drive.  



Well, I went ahaed and purchased a sony DCR SR42.
It does not show up with usbview, ivman or in the 
dmesg if I reboot and leave it attached via

usb.
  

I have a Sony  DCR-SR32 that I use with my Gentoo Thinkpad.  This is a
great little camera that works well with Linux (i.e. shows up as a USB
mass storage device).  Your model is in the same range so I would
imaging the following would work for you as well.

To get the video off the camera, I do the following:

1. Plug the docking station into the wall socket and turn the wall power
on. Plug the USB lead into the laptop.
2. Attach the camera to the docking station and switch the camera on.
3. Open up the LCD display. Select the computer hard disk button.

4. At that point /var/log/messages shows something like:

5. The LCD shows:
Connecting... Do not unplug the USB cable. Do not turn off the power.
There is also an END button that you press after you have finished
transfering the video.

6. Mount the device under Linux:  e.g. mount /mnt/camcorder

My /etc/fstab entry looks like:
/dev/sdb1   /mnt/camcorder  autonoauto,ro,user  0 0

7. cp /mnt/camcorder/mp_root/101pnv01/*  ~/video

8. After video has finished transferring, umount /mnt/camcorder

9. Press the 'END' button on the camera LCD display and follow any
instructions.

The only gotcha for me was, the first time I tried this I hadn't
connected the camera to the docking station properly. You really need to
give it a good shove to make sure the connection is good.


Did you activate anything special in your kernel?

i would assume that the video recorders 
would work the same way.  maybe you can take a laptop to a 
store that sells them and check to see if it works that way 
or find someone that has one and borrow it.  if you dont want 
sony recorders im sure you can find another brand with the same 
interface.



Well, If I cannot get it to at least mount the 30Gig HD like most
usb devices, I might just return it for another model...

ideas on things to try to get this DCR SR42 to work?
  

Try the above. This is a great little camera and I am really glad I
bought it.

Good luck

[gentoo-user] vim encoding

2007-08-13 Thread Mick
Hi All,

I am trying to find out how I can see what encoding my vim is using.  Also 
would be good to know how to set it to a different encoding, if I need to.

Some other questions that may help me understand how encoding works:

 - My /etc/vim/vimrc says scriptencoding utf-8, does this mean that this is 
the vim encoding and any new file will be saved with this encoding?

 - If I open a file which was saved with ISO-8859-1, edit it and save it, will 
it keep the original encoding?

 - The vimrc says:  Make sure we have a sane fallback for encoding detection
set fileencodings+=default  I guess this is system default.  How can I find 
what is the default setting?

Sorry if these are simple questions but never got my head around encodings and 
charactersets.

:set encoding
should show you the encoding resently used.

also you can set another encoding with, e.a.:

[gentoo-user] logrotate

Hi,

I have my logrotate configured but it does not work propertly.
Let me explain:
 mail # ls -lsah

[gentoo-user] nvidia-driver crashes X

2007-08-13 Thread Florian Philipp
Hi!

I'm experiencing some strange problems on one of my machines. Everytime I open 
the KDE Control Center and on random occasions in Firefox (sometimes after 
doing nothing for several minutes, just having it open in the background and 
switching back to it or when starting certain java scripts) the X-Server does 
no longer react. I can move the cursor but that's it. 

All I can do is open a remote shell. Top shows me that X is at 97-99% cpu 
usage and the only way to kill it is with kill -kill

I've noticed the following in dmesg:

Re: [gentoo-user] OT :video cameras and gentoo

2007-08-13 Thread Stroller
I don't believe that's the case for video cameras, which usually use  
firewire for video transfer.


I have a customer who bought a DV camcorder with a USB socket  it  
transpired that this socket was only capable of transferring photos  
from the camera (which had both a video and a static photo mode).  
Video had to be transferred by firewire.


Although videos appear in the mass storage device of my mum's digicam  
in proper video recorders firewire is MUCH more common. If I wanted  
to record video I would expect to be buying a firewire-capable video  
camera; although I might well take Iain Buchanan's advice of 13th  
August 2007 00:00:23 BST to supplant my previous  expectations, I  
wouldn't expect USB is a serious camcorder.


Stroller.

No, scriptencoding is just the encoding of /etc/vim/vimrc.  File 
encoding is handled by 'fileencodings' further down.

  - If I open a file which was saved with ISO-8859-1, edit it and
 save it, will it keep the original encoding?

Yes.  Vim will never change the encoding of a file.  If you typed 
characters that don't fit in ISO-8859-1 (which can happen if you use 
a utf locale), you will get a CONVERSION ERROR upon writing the 
file, and 'quit' will refuse to quit without you forcing it.

  - The vimrc says:  Make sure we have a sane fallback for
 encoding detection set fileencodings+=default  I guess this is
 system default.  How can I find what is the default setting?

Open a new file and type :set enc; it will show the current 
(default) enconding.  This default is what LANG says.  See the 
output of 'locale'.

It doesn't matter if you write -t proc proc /mnt... or ChrootProc
or FooBar. The source (proc, ChrootProc) is just symbolic name.
To the system, it has no meaning whatsoever. It's just something for
the user; and as I like to be able to easily differentiate between

 first, update you bios. Pull out the card, dust the case, put the card
 back, retry.

Bios is updated to the last stable release. The latest beta (for almost 2 
years now) crashes badly.

The system was build less than two months ago and should not contain much 
dust. Anyway, it's got no fan at all but I've taken care of possible heat 
problems.

I'll check the bios settings, maybe permanently limiting it to AGP2x helps.

I've forgotten to mention that the card works flawlessly with the nv driver.

because of the Xid. From the part in your mail it looks like you get your

Re: [gentoo-user] OT :video cameras and gentoo

2007-08-13 Thread Paul
i meant its main function is taking photos.  an added feature is it takes
movies, i wouldn't consider it a serious camera.  show us what you are
getting in dmesg when you plug in the camera.  and i think it is very stupid
that someone would make it so you could only transfer photos with usb.  if
it shows up as a hard drive you should have to do more or less exactly what
garry said.  if you can get a usb thumbdrive to mount on your computer, you
should be able to mount your camera in the same way.

On 8/13/07, Stroller [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

 I don't believe that's the case for video cameras, which usually use
 firewire for video transfer.

 I have a customer who bought a DV camcorder with a USB socket  it
 transpired that this socket was only capable of transferring photos
 from the camera (which had both a video and a static photo mode).
 Video had to be transferred by firewire.

 Although videos appear in the mass storage device of my mum's digicam
 in proper video recorders firewire is MUCH more common. If I wanted
 to record video I would expect to be buying a firewire-capable video
 camera; although I might well take Iain Buchanan's advice of 13th
 August 2007 00:00:23 BST to supplant my previous  expectations, I
 wouldn't expect USB is a serious camcorder.

I guess someone else has come across this already in a different thread.

Is there a guide yet? I like to emerge -u with D and N flags, but this can't 
happen again until expat upgrade is smoothed out?

  420  emerge -auDNv system

  497  emerge -pv gnome-light |less

[ AHA! ]

  498  emerge -av gnome-light
  499  dispatch-conf

/end amusement

So, I'm still not upgraded to expat 2, but my system works again. 

So, is there a proven way to do upgrade to have a system using expat 2 libs?

[gentoo-user] Internet bridge

2007-08-13 Thread Mateus Interciso
Hi, basically, I want to share the internet using a Bridge on a pc with 
two NICS, one for internet, the other for Internal Network.
Now, I know a easiest approuch would be to use NAT, which is how I'm 
doing now, but since I really need Level 2 Routing, I can't afford doing 
this with nat.
A simple network layout would be like this:

Internet[eth1]Gentoo[eth0]LAN
So, what I've done was this:
1)Installed the net-misc/bridge-utils
2)Enable the bridge module on the kernel
3)Load it
4)ifconfig eth0 0.0.0.0
5)ifconfig eth1 0.0.0.0
6)brctl addbr br0
7)brctl setfd br0 0
8)brctl addif br0 eth0
9)brctl addif br0 eth1
10)ifconfig br0 up
Now comes the tricky part, since the internet I recieve is via DHCP, and 
on eth1, if I make: dhcpcd eth1, it timesout, but if I use dhclient eth1, 
it works, almost, I can get an IP at least, so I've sticked with this
11)dhclient eth1
12)ifconfig eth0 10.0.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0

Now, you would have to excuse me, because I really don't remember if that 
worked, but I think it didn't, what I made (that at least didn't put the 
whole network down), was all of this, but on step 10 forward:
10)ifconfig br0 10.0.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 up
11)dhclient eth1

And by this, I can actually browse the internal network, but not the 
internet, in none of the machines, neither the bridge, with/without a 
iptables firewall enabled.

Can anyone please help me?

Thanks a lot.

Mateus

Re: [gentoo-user] Re: checking for XML::Parser... configure: error: XML::Parser perl module is required for intltool

2007-08-13 Thread Denis
When I was upgrading on one of the machines, I did encounter this same
error on a couple gnome-related ebuilds (I don't actually have either
gnome or kde desktops installed - only fluxbox).  I ended up upgrading
XML-Parser, then did a revdep-rebuild, which told me to re-install
gettext, dbus, and dbus-glib.  Once those steps were done, the
packages that were giving me compile errors emerged smoothly.  In the
end, I had to also re-install audacious-plugins package.  Most of the
re-installs were due to expat lib as well.

However, on my other machine, the upgrade of the same packages was
seamless, and the list of packages to upgrade were somewhat different,
although the two machines are configured pretty much identically.

The only difference I could see is that my work machine has a
different default RSYNC mirror selected than the one at home.  Could
some of the packages have been out of sync on the different mirrors
and cause this messy upgrade procedure to happen on some machines?

Well, you know better than I do Bo. All I'm saying is that for this
problem I was not required to rebuild gvv for the 4th time in 3 days.

I could always use the stable version and then delete gcc from the
list of things to build. That would work also. However both ways leave
a dummy like me not knowing if my machine is correctly configured and
rebuilding gcc over and over again uses so much time and system power
that it gets in the way of really using the machine.

Anyway, thanks for the comments.

AFAIK, this will never work. If you really need incoming connections on

Didn't say it was the best solution just the easiest. I would like to

ip_conntrack_sip
SIP can be NATted. Simply NAT the packets as normal with the module loaded.

If you still want to go the bridge route, I believe you need to give the IP

No no no. It's gcc with the gcj use flag that's broken. The stable version of 
revdep-rebuild is just showing you already existing breakage in gcc (or 
inconsistency if you will). Editing those .la files or creating those 
symlinks are proper solutions. Another solution if you don't need gcj anyway

Ah, OK, that's different. I looked up the gcj flag and got this:

gcj Enable building with gcj (The GNU Compiler for the Javatm
Programming Language)

I don't know if I *need* it. I don't know how I would tell if I'm even
using it today. Is thee some way for me to test whether I've ever
compiled Java code with with gcc? I personally would guess that I
haven't as it sounds like something you'd know if you were doing, but
possibly portage builds something this way that I'm not aware of?

Anyway, I don't *think* I need it so I'm happy to turn off the flag
and test how things work with the stable version of gentoolkit.

Thanks in advance,

 No, scriptencoding is just the encoding of /etc/vim/vimrc.  File
 encoding is handled by 'fileencodings' further down.

   - If I open a file which was saved with ISO-8859-1, edit it and
  save it, will it keep the original encoding?

 Yes.  Vim will never change the encoding of a file.  If you typed
 characters that don't fit in ISO-8859-1 (which can happen if you use
 a utf locale), you will get a CONVERSION ERROR upon writing the
 file, and 'quit' will refuse to quit without you forcing it.

Hmm, I just checked a utf-8 file after I edited it and it says:

:set encoding
 encoding=latin1

I assume this means that it was changed from utf8 to latin1 (what ever
this is . . . is it relevant to ISO-8859-1?)

   - The vimrc says:  Make sure we have a sane fallback for
  encoding detection set fileencodings+=default  I guess this is
  system default.  How can I find what is the default setting?

 Open a new file and type :set enc; it will show the current
 (default) enconding.  This default is what LANG says.  See the
 output of 'locale'.

The output of locale gives me:
===
$ locale
LANG=

LC_NUMERIC=POSIX
LC_TIME=POSIX
LC_COLLATE=POSIX

No.  To see what encoding a file has, you could use 'file'.  Run 
'file thefileyouedited', and it should say UTF-8 Unicode text.  
When you open the file again with vim, it will say [converted] on 
the status line: converted from utf-8 to latin1.

 (whatever this is . . . is it relevant to ISO-8859-1?)

Latin1 is a synonym for ISO-8859-1.

Because your LANG isn't set, the default is Latin1, as you could 
have learned by typing ':help enc' in vim.

 Not sure I understand what all this means.  Is my Vim
 installation working as it should?

You can edit any file you like, vim will auto-convert on read and 
write.

 Do I have to change my locale? 

Depends on what you want.  If new files should be UTF-8 encoded, 
then change your locale.  Otherwise you're fine as you are.

Re: [gentoo-user] Re: checking for XML::Parser... configure: error: XML::Parser perl module is required for intltool

2007-08-13 Thread Joseph
 On a second machine I tried:
 revdep-rebuild -X --library=libexpat.so.0
 
 it recompiles a lot of packages including subversion and apache, however 
 both programs won't run because libexpat.so.0 is required somewhere. If 
 I run revdep-rebuild again, only arputil will be re-emerged, however 
 that doesn't help, so for the time being I'll create the symlink as I 
 did on my other machine and see if that helps enough to get my server 
 running again.
 
 Regards,
 
 Henk.

I had the same problem, running:
emerge -av XML-Parser

helped; now I'm moving forward.

[gentoo-user] expat troubles now gnome *very flakey*

2007-08-13 Thread Allan Gottlieb
I successfully battled the expat problem (with Bo's help) and
revdep-rebuild reports no further need to recompile.

But gnome seems badly broken.

$HOME/.gnomerc-errors has one line
SESSION_MANAGER=local/ajglap:/tmp/.ICE-unix/7081

1.  (minor) gdm can't find the emergence theme, haven't tracked it
down since it is minor.

2.  No apps seem to start.  If I start e.g. gnucash from an xterm
the app puts up no window.  Here is a ps listing
10136 pts/0S  0:00 gnucash bin
Similar results for other gnome apps

3.  The panel doesn't appear on the screen, but it does for a root
login.

I really could use some help

I am thinking of trying to rebuild the world (emerge --emptytree
world).  Am I correct in believing that this is not likely to make
things worse.  For example emacs-22 and firefox-2.0.0.6 work fine now.

thanks

[gentoo-user] Portage annoyances

2007-08-13 Thread Grant
Three of my systems are having package management trouble.  One of the
systems does this after revdep-rebuild:

All ebuilds that could satisfy =sys-devel/gcc-4.1.1 have been masked.

but I don't know why it wants a masked version of gcc.  Another system
wants to unmerge a bunch of crucial stuff with --depclean, including:

x11-base/xorg-x11
selected: 7.1
protected: none
omitted: none

x11-apps/xdm
selected: 1.0.5
protected: none
omitted: none

If I do a pretend emerge of xorg-x11 and xdm, it want to upgrade a
bunch of packages but 'emerge -pDuN world' find nothing.  I have this:

# equery depends xorg-x11
[ Searching for packages depending on xorg-x11... ]
virtual/x11-7.0-r2 (=x11-base/xorg-x11-7)

The other system outputs a bunch of libtiff.la stuff about ImageMagick like:

broken /usr/lib/ImageMagick-6.2.2/modules-Q16/filters/analyze.la
(requires /usr/lib/libtiff.la)

but then says there is nothing to rebuild.  Can anyone help with
fixing these problems?

 Hi James

 Try the above. This is a great little camera and I am really glad I

Hello Garry,

Last last night I got it to work, noodling around with it, I figured
out you have to push several menu buttons before IVMAN picked up the
usb device. Once that happened, I was off to the races.


I do appreciate your meticulous instructions. In fact we should 
build/populate a sony/handicam gentoo wiki, so it is very straight 
forward For other to use a sony HDD video camera with Gentoo...
I have many things I want to try and do with Gentoo and the family
video camera. Virtually all of the players I tested last night,
vlc, mplayer kaffeine and codeine all worked fabulously with the
Mpeg(2) files, I tried. Right now, I've got about 75 individual
files in a dir because I stopped and started the camera after
each play on my sons football game. That way I can figure out
how to index into the game, on a chronological basis,to review an
individual play, or just watch the entire game from start to finish. 

I'm going to write some simple scripts to auto convert 
these ugly (name )files to something more meaningful
and logical, keeping each game in a separate dir. I wonder if anyone
has hacked any database stuff to help one manage a large collect
of video files

Now on to converting them to Mpeg4-avc (h.264).

More to come, but, THANKS for your advice.
You are right on the money...

[gentoo-user] nfs, mount as the second time?

2007-08-13 Thread Wang, Baojun
hi,

Is it possible to mount nfs the as the second time? ie:

nfs server, ip: 192.168.1.2, nfs opt, 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0
(ro,no_root_squash,sync,no_subtree_check)
nfs client1, ip: 192.168.1.11, nfs opt, 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0
(rw,no_root_squash,sync,no_subtree_check)
nfs client2, ip: 192.168.1.21

on client1:

mount -t nfs 192.168.1.2:/opt/gentoo-ppc /opt/gentoo-ppc
cp -av /opt/gentoo-ppc/etc /opt/gentoo-ppc-etc
mount -o bind /opt/gentoo-ppc-etc /opt/gentoo-ppc/etc

then on client2:

mount -t nfs 192.168.1.11:/opt/gentoo-ppc /opt/gentoo-ppc

after that I got this error message:

mount: 192.168.1.11:/opt/gentoo-ppc failed, reason given by server: Permission 
denied

client2 later will be a ppc development board, gentoo-ppc on nfs server is a 
gentoo root filesystem, but I need overwrite /etc (/etc/fstab) so I can have 
many developers like client1, we can share the same basic rootfs, but 
different /home, /tmp, /var, etc..

Is it possible to mount nfs in such manner? Thanks in advance!

Wang

My experience was similar to yours.  I found that I had to turn off the
option that saves your session when you log out, and then delete the

the window manager would start working.  I have no idea what is causing

 Seems you had virtual/x11 which pulled all dependencies, but not

I don't understand why they weren't depended on by gdm and (for
example) firefox which are in my world file.

  If I do a pretend emerge of xorg-x11 and xdm, it want to upgrade a
  bunch of packages but 'emerge -pDuN world' find nothing.  I have this:

[gentoo-user] new gnome fails except for root

2007-08-13 Thread Allan Gottlieb
I updated to the new gnome.  After battling the expat problem, I was
able to get a clean emerge and an empty revdep-rebuild (with Bo's
help).

But gnome is broken on this system (others have reported similar
problems).

In my case basically all gnome apps, e.g. panel, gnucash, evolution,
gnome-terminal, evince fail when a normal user logs in.

With a root login, gnome-terminal fails, but panel, gnucash, evolution
seem to work (didn't try evince as root).

For a normal user gnome login, I use either a shell in emacs or go to
a virtual terminal and start an xterm.  In any case when I try to
start a gnome app (e.g. gnucash), no output is produced, no window
appears, but the app shows up in   ps x.

I would be very appreciative for any help.

thanks in advance,
allan gottlieb

   Wow.  Well, contrary to my expectations, my system (after emerge
   -uDNav world) exhibits every one of the problems that you had.  At
   least you can take solace in the fact that you're not alone.
  
  
  I really need some gnome apps (especially gnucash for my checking acct
  and evolution for my schedule).  I have plenty of data backups but no
  backup machine.  A reinstall is possible, but of course painful.  I
  could start
  
 emerge -e world
  
  I would just like some agreement that this is not likely to make
  things worse.  Currently with emacs and firefox, I can read/send mail,
  and prepare and view my (html) class notes.  So I do have something to
  lose.
  
  Hopefully someone will give us some help; this group is very good for
  that.

  Hi,
 
  Does revdep-rebuild report something to rebuild ?
 
 No.  Revdep-rebuild is clean.
 
  Could try with previous version (of revdep-rebuild), check the ebuild.
 
 Was revdep-rebuild just upgraded?  Do you have a particular version
 you thing I should use?
 
This is the latest (testing) version of gentoolkit:
pkg_postinst() {
...
echo
ewarn This version of gentoolkit contains a rewritten version of
ewarn revdep-rebuild. If you encounter issues with the new version,
ewarn The previous version can be found at:
ewarn /usr/lib/gentoolkit/bin/revdep-rebuild
...
So check with this previous version.
 From my side new expat-2.0.1 on two machines, no big problems so far.
  But i check with check_linkage.rb script (from paludis).
 
 I still use portage and don't want to switch while something is not
 working.

Ok
 thanks for the help.
 allan

[gentoo-user] vim syntax hi-lighting - Added .X68 file extension

2007-08-13 Thread Richard Broersma Jr
Can anyone explain or point out a link that describes the process of adding a 
file type extension
for syntax high-lighting?

I would like to configure vim to automatically recognize the .X68 file type as 
an assembly
language program.

TIA,

Richard Broersma Jr.
