[gentoo-user] Resuming after hibernate
Resuming does not work for my laptop after it hibernates - OS boots normally and does not use resume image created by s2disk. Linux 2.6.30-gentoo-r8 i686 Kernel command line: root=/dev/sda6 vga=0x317 video=vesafb:mtrr:3,ywrap resume=swap:/dev/sda5 # cat /usr/src/linux/.config | grep CONFIG_PM_STD_PARTITION CONFIG_PM_STD_PARTITION=/dev/sda5 sys-power/hibernate-script-2.0-r1 sys-power/suspend-0.8-r1 To suspend laptop I uses 'hibernate' command which uses s2disk tool # cat /etc/suspend.conf snapshot device = /dev/snapshot resume device = /dev/sda5 When the system boots up: * Activating (possible) swap ... swapon: /dev/sda5: Invalid argument * Invalidating stale software suspend images ... /sda5 It looks like that kernel knows nothing about suspend image and does not use it. Any ideas? Thanks. -- Sergey

Re[2]: [gentoo-user] Resuming after hibernate
Btw, s2disk is user-level tool. According to http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Suspend_to_Disk initrd image is required to resume from image created by s2disk tool, but I don't use initrd. Maybe this is a reason? Probably I need switch to native swsusp?.. Monday, November 9, 2009, 5:39:46 PM, Walter wrote: Why do you need anything in the kernel commandlindline?

I'd want to use 2008 beta2 if it's stable enough. There is no beta profile. The install discs based on 2008.0 are still in beta, but the profiles are plain 2008.0.

Re[2]: [gentoo-user] intelfb and 945GM
uvesafb works, but it is a bit slow, and requires user-space programs to run.

I seem to have missed the start of this thread, but if you don't mind, could you give me a quick idea on what is broken within intelfb? I've been debating on switching to it, but keep seeing info on it being broken, and nothing on WHAT is broken. I see screen with many scrolling white lines (probably this are kernel messages).

Hi Wael, Thanks for help. According to http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_fbsplash: uvesafb - a newer (=2.6.23) generic, _non-accelerated_ driver that supports additional features such as custom resolutions. Unlike other drivers, it requires a userspace daemon called v86d to run (provided in the sys-apps/v86d package) intelfb - an _accelerated_ driver for Intel chipsets That's why I selected intelfb.

This morning I did a slight network topography modification, and now my wife is having trouble sending email from her computer. Her computer used to be 192.168.1.4,, but it's connected to a subrouter now that's connected into the main one. The subrouter's IP is 192.168.0.1, if that matters. My wife's computer is now 192.168.0.2. She tried to send mail to one of her friends, and exim rejected the message. Here's the hostlist line from /etc/exim/exim.conf: baby bind # grep hostlist /etc/exim/exim.conf hostlist relay_from_hosts = 127.0.0.1 : 192.168.1.2 : 192.168.1.3 : 192.168.1.4 : 192.168.0.2 Now, she can send a test message to herself by appending our domain to the end of her username. We're used to not having to do that. How can we get that back? I would send the full exim.conf, but I don't remember the syntax to sed to strip out all the comment lines, and my reference books are packed away for our eminent move... -- Sergey -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list

Hi Michael, Mar 13 14:22:01 baby exim[25957]: 2008-03-13 14:22:01 unqualified recipient rejected: amy H=([192.168.0.2]) [192.168.1.100] (failed to find host name from IP address) I guess 192.168.1.100 is what my main router calls the subrouter. The subrouter is configured to use the address 192.168.0.1. Probably this address is NATed. Do I need to add 192.168.1.100 to the hostlist in exim.conf and restart exim?

This is mail server and has mostly no additional packages except exim, mysql, spamassassin and some other. This means that you never explicitly merged them, they are not in world and are no longer required by anything else. There are normally three reasons: - you merged something that needed these packages, then unmerged them later, leaving these dependencies orphaned - you merged something else that used them, and in a recent update they are now using something else that provides the same functionality - they were required by some USE flag you once had, and you have now changed your USE, so the deps are no longer required. Yes, that the theory I know about :) But looks like they are not in world list of stage3. I'm 99% sure I didn't merge hashalot attr (as dependencies too). You'll need to look at each package and figure out if YOU need them, as we can't tell you that. I might think that you don't need your wife under any circumstances, and you might strongly disagree :-) :) I once knew what hashalot does. I forgot. It's something to do with cryptography %description This program will read a passphrase from standard input and print a binary (not printable) hash to standard output. The output is suitable for use as an encryption key. pwdb is used as a password and user account configuration thingy. Looks pretty important :-) I think so. attr provides extended attributes to ext2/3 and XFS file systems, used by selinux and posix capabilities. If you use these features, you already are aware of it. So, if I use reiserfs w/o ext attrs (option in kernel), I don't need it probably. Correct? When you figure out which ones to keep, it's best to put them in your world file.

[gentoo-user] VMware Server Tools
Hi. I can't find vmware-server-tools in layman. Before I used it to install tools: # equery list | grep vmware-server-tools app-emulation/vmware-server-tools-1.0.3.44356 Now I can't find tools: # layman -l * vmware[Subversion] (source: http://overlays.gentoo.org...) # emerge --search vmware-server-tools Searching... [ Results for search key : vmware-server-tools ] [ Applications found : 0 ] Are they not supported now? Does anybody try to use open-vm-tools instead? Usually I need tools to sync time with host only. Thanks for help. -- Sergey -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
