I have never used mailutils mda; I just noticed that there is a
configuration option
--disable-build-mda for mailutils [1] and thought, maybe, adding
$(use_enable build-mda) \
to the mailutils ebuild [2] will help to get mda in Gentoo.

If I remember correctly, it happened sometimes that iptables loaded
after net.eth0 service even with rc_depend_strict="YES" in
/etc/rc.conf (iptables in default runlevel), and I changed one line in
/etc/init.d/net.eth0:
-after net.lo ...
+after net.lo ... iptables
I think it does not harm :)

...The option, important for saving iptables state, is:
SAVE_ON_STOP="yes" in /etc/conf.d/iptables.
It's so by default, AFAIK.

Ah, you are right! I am sorry, my iptables rule with 'noinet' doesn't
include an interface, I added it when typing the message and looked at
my rules with an interface from the INPUT section.

Yes, it seems to be enough. I found out that 'noinet' rule when I got
annoyed by an application (written by Windows programmers as well)
that was continuously checking updates at each launch... No inet - no
check :)

Hi,

This should check if 3.9 is installed:
if has_version '=dev-lang/python-3.9'; then

But for which python version will the package be installed - isn't it

Aren't /usr/local/portage and /usr/local/portage/steam-overlay really
intertwined? What if you move the 'local' overlay to, say,
/usr/local/portage/local ? (And, sure, edit the corresponding info in

 Where did you get that silly idea? cpuinfo2cpuflags-x86 tells you

Ok. It tells me what _could_ be put in the new variable in make.conf. But
make.conf existed before this new variable. And what flags existed in it -
it's a separate question. If one wants to keep 'status quo', he should only
duplicate those cpu flags whis were in USE to this new variable. If some

 Hm, really, it's almost empty except for the last packages I have added
 yesterday... So that's clearly not an emerge bug, but ... Could anything
 mess it up?
 I have copied the system to a new HDD recently

Including /var?

 and done an `emerge @world`,
 too, and everything went OK.

If the correct version of the world file is lost, you may want to try
to regenerate it with `regenworld'. This utility will search old
emerge log files (did you copy it from old HDD?) If old emerge log
files are lost too, then the script from [1] could help to recover
some (major) part of the world file entries.

[gentoo-user] Rc.log with custom kernel on VPS

[Alexey Mishustin]

Hi,

Recently I built a custom kernel on a XEN-powered VPS with Gentoo. It
works fine, but I've noticed that there is no more sysinit part of
the boot log at rc.log. It was before (with the provider's kernel) and
lacks now.

The boot log starts now with the boot part, then comes the default
part. To be exact, the first lines are now:

* Checking local filesystems  ...
* Remounting root filesystem read/write ...

No Mounting /run. No Starting udev.

Is it normal or no?

Which options related to locales may I have configured otherwise? In

laptop-specific packages added. The only difference that I remember: I

Re: [gentoo-user] syslog-ng segfaults

  syslog-ng[32015]: segfault at 44d8 ip 7f4f3fa23c83 sp

  +67000]
 
  Has anybody else seen anything like that?


 Perhaps you forgot to restart syslog-ng after the update?

 # ldd /usr/sbin/syslog-ng | grep libsyslog-ng
 libsyslog-ng-3.4.2.so = /usr/lib64/libsyslog-ng-3.4.2.so
 (0x7fe7dfe5b000)

 If the library was called libsyslog-ng.so.0.0.0 in the previous version, and
 if syslog-ng tried to reload it, it would fail after the update which could
 cause the segfault.

 So, restarting syslog-ng should be all that's required to fix it - reboot is
 overkill.

As for me, first I updated syslog-ng, then I issued
'/etc/init.d/syslog-ng reload' (by mistake, instead of 'restart'), and
then 'restart' as I should. Then, just when syslog-ng was restarting,
the segfault happened.

 Also, any errors in the config file should not cause segfault. If it does,
 that indicates a bug in the input validation/config parsing code. Errors in
 the config should result in a graceful termination.

 Reason for my question ist that recently the CPU-Id presented from quemu

 some newly compiles SW could fail. One way to solve this is to change
 the CFLAGS to -mtune=native and recompile the affected SW (or world).

The usual advice I've seen on this list is to boot your machine from a linux
rescue CD or installation CD and do lspci -k from there, because the correct
kernel driver should already be loaded automatically during the boot.

Once you know which driver to use, build your own kernel to use the same 
driver.

OK, thanks for the help.

 If I understand well, dvd-player should be connected to one of the two

My hardware is several years older than yours, so my knowledge is obsolete :(

My dvd player uses the old flat-ribbon cable (5 cm wide) attached to an old
PATA controller plug, so naturally I need a PATA kernel driver to use the dvd
drive.

Does your dvd drive use a new (small) SATA cable to connect to the motherboard?

No, it is conected by the old flat-ribbon cable.

If the answer is yes, then your understanding is correct, and your kernel 
*should*
be announcing your dvd hardware in dmesg.

I don't see any mention about the dvd-player in dmesg.

Are you sure the cables are connected properly to the dvd drive?  Are the

Yes, it blinks normally.

I'm still trying to separate hardware/driver problems from udev problems.

The salient lines from lsmod:

The kernel module sr_mod is selected in the kernel config menu at
Device Drivers::SCSI device support::SCSI CDROM support

I guess, you mean CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SR? It was selected as Y. I changed it
to M and recompiled the kernel. The module appeared:

The same kernel (with CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SR = Y) works perfectly on my laptop

[gentoo-user] formail doesn't catch duplicates

[Alexey Mishustin]

Hi list,

I have this in my procmailrc:

:0 Whc: $HOME/Mail/.msgid.lock
| formail -D 16384 $HOME/Mail/.msgid.cache

:0 a:
$MAILDIR/duplicates/

This is situated after a virus-check and before all other filters.

But nothing duplicates is being catched, all they are falling into main
folders.

What could be wrong here?

 For example, I don't understand what does -15.15 mean (in default value

The -15.15 is the same as the printf(3) format.

That's it. I had read man printf yesterday, but not found man 3 printf.
Seems to contain all information that I need...

The minus sign means
left align the field, the first number is the minimum field width, and
the dot specifies that the next number is the precision, which for a
string is the max number of characters to print.

E.g -15.20 would be a left aligned field atleast 15 characters wide,
expanding upto 20 total, if the string is long enough.  But that could
make things unaligned, so just keep the values the same.

 why there are no width values for each column,

%4C   - message number (width 4)
%Z- Status flags (always 3 characters)
%{%b %d}  - (see below) Short month name, 2 digit day (constant width)
%-15.15L  - Address (width 15)
(%4l) - # of lines in the message (width 4)
%s- Subject (last field, width unimportant)

 what do constructions %{another %s} mean.

From the online manual [1], %{format} passes the date (in the sender's
time zone) to strftime(3), so you could use %{%Y-%m-%d} for example,
or just %D to use the setting from date_format.

Perhaps tricky to read, but very flexible. Hope that helps.

Sure that helps! Thanks a lot.

[gentoo-user] mutt $index_format syntax

[Alexey Mishustin]

Hello list,

Could anyone tell me where I could find an explanation of mutt
$index_format syntax. I read mutt manual, but it's not enough for me.
For example, I don't understand what does -15.15 mean (in default value
%4C %Z %{%b %d} %-15.15L (%4l) %s ), why there are no width values
for each column, what do constructions %{another %s} mean.

[gentoo-user] ttf corefonts in Worker file manager

[Alexey Mishustin]

Hi list,

Could someone please tell me, is it possible to set ttf corefonts in Worker 
file manager? When I enter, e.g., *-verdana-* on its font configuration page, 
it complains that can't locate font.

My fc-list shows all ttf corefonts, xlsfonts doesn't show any. Is there a way 
to get rid of this (by configuring Xresources may be)?

Sorry, the problem was in paths in my xorg.conf. I thought this section isn't 
being used by modern Xorg anymore. It works perfect now, with

As I have ntp-client installed, I decided to synchronize

[gentoo-user] Persistent modification time in the future

[Alexey Mishustin]

Hello,

I performed the system update today (emerge -uND @world), and now I get  errors 
One of the files in /etc/{conf.d,init.d} or /etc/rc.conf has a modification 
time in the future! at boot.

If I do
touch /tmp/tmp.file
find /etc -newer /tmp/temp.file

I get
/etc/
/etc/adjtime
/etc/mtab

Then I do
ls -l / | grep etc

and get
drwxr-xr-x 42 root root 4096 Mar 28 2011 etc

Evidently, there is no time of modification that should be the reason of the 
error.

There is the same situation with /etc/adjtime and /etc/mtab (no time).

I tried to do
find /etc -newer /tmp/temp.file -exec touch {} \;

But it doesn't help. Dates appear but only till I reboot. After reboot I get 
the same error and the same three elements - /etc/, /etc/adjtime, /etc/mtab - 
have no time of modification anymore.

What can be the problem?

During the system update I updated 3 packages: dev-libs/mpfr, 
media-fonts/dejavu, sys-apps/util-linux, recompiled 2: sys-apps/groff, 
sys-kernel/gentoo-sources (added some flags), emerged mailx.

 check your clocks.

You were absolutely right, the problem was here. My clock was 10 minutes slow.

I did
/etc/init.d/net-client restart

, rebooted, and got nothing error.

But how my clock could get slow if I have ntp-client autoloading at default 
level?

 Comment out the InputDevice sections or remove them completely as shown in 
 thread [2] above.

I deleted definitions of InputDevices and the corresponding rows in the 
ServerLayout section. Unfortunately, it didn't help. I'm getting the same weird 
behaviour of the keyboard in consoles.

A testing has shown that the keyboard gets broken in a new-open console not

 I can't see anything immediately wrong with it ...

 Why do you have:

 Disable  dri
 Disable  dri2

 in there?

I had changed xorg.conf many times before writing to this list. Read that 
nvidia driver doesn't use dri which is intended for open drivers, I commented 
it out.

Yesterday I tried to startx without 'Disable dri', no effect...

 PS.  Have you re-emerged evdev and synaptics after you emerged xorg-server?

No. It's what I can do now.

Not only slowly.

Also, there is no cursor. It doesn't blink. But if I press keys and then 
several times press Enter, the command that I pressed appears, then slowly 
computes.
It looks like this:

(I'm pressing `pwd` not seeing cursor and pressing letters)

#pwd

Also, it's impossible to scroll with Shift+PgUp.
