Yep - definitely bios related - wake on keyboard is usually the name too. I haven't done it in a while, but I remember something about using certain keys (maybe enter?) to start up my PC. I haven't done it since PS/2 days. If you have a usb keyboard, it would probably require keeping the 5V alive to the usb ports, which might require playing with suspend states in the bios as well. This could also use a bit of power of a long time, but I think it would be tiny. Unfortunately there is no wake on keyboard in this BIOS, although it's a rather good Intel-board. hmm ... Yes, it's a USB-keyboard ... Will continue to play with it, right now I have real work to do ;) suspend-to-ram is working, which is cool enough already ... And what about suspend-to-disk? As far as I know, it dosen't work! Thanks so far, Stefan

I'm at a bit of a loss as to what the problem is, or how to go about trying to find out what is the problem. If I read this correctly, it appears that it can not find the keyboard or something. This is what makes me think that: The XKEYBOARD keymap compiler (xkbcomp) reports: Warning: Multiple names for keycode 211. In your make.conf, do you have a line that is something like this: INPUT_DEVICES=keyboard mouse Also make sure you have something like the following in your xorg.conf file: Section InputDevice Identifier Keyboard0 Driver kbd EndSection Section InputDevice Identifier Mouse0 Driver mouse Option Protocol auto Option Device /dev/input/mouse0 Option ZAxisMapping 4 5 6 7 EndSection This may not have anything to do with the problem but it is something that didn't look right to me.

[gentoo-user] 2008 minimal install hangs mounting /dev/hda2 looking for CD
How do I tell the minimal install where the CDROM is? It apparently goes out trying to mount anything and everything looking for the CD, and the first time it finds something that isn't a valid filesystem, it hangs. First it hung trying to mount hda1 (an empty partittion). So, I booted Knoppix and created filesystems and a swap partition on hda. Now, when it gets to hda2 (the swap partition), it hangs trying to mount that. Since when could hda1 or hda2 be a CDROM? -- Grant

If you wait several minutes, it will eventually give up trying to mount a non-filesystem and move on. Odd, it didn't used to take 3-4 minutes for a mount to fail like that.

[gentoo-user] adsl, pptp, iptables
Hi! I have: 1. eth0 IP address, 2. adsl modem IP address eth0 is connected with, 3. dedicated IP address for ppp0 interface after connecting to... 4. ... provider's pptp server with another, fourth, IP address. All these addresses are assigned by my provider. The aim is to close all incoming traffic except for, say, httpd port. Does anybody know good tutorial how to orginize all these IPs and interfaces wrt iptables rules? It would be great to do this job in Oskar's tutorial style/approach which I'm reading now: http://iptables-tutorial.frozentux.net/ Andrew

For gentoo, a picture of lone student in a big library with a six pack of Jolt would be more appropriate. Kudos to the portage team!
