[gentoo-user] KDE Sound problem
Ok, this sound bug is really getting annoying. It has persisted over every distro I have every tried and it never fails to show its ugly face at least 2 or 3 weeks after I install the distro, and every time the same exact fix fixes the problem. The scenerio: I install the distro (can be any distro), sound works great for at least a week. Then, the sound in konsole decides it's not going to work anymore yet every other application still has sound. But its not only Konsole that loses the sound. Its ANY application that uses KDE's System Notifications. Talk about annoying Do you realize how many apps use that thing? You'll see why it's annoying in a minute. Then, once the sound stops working, the ONLY way to fix it is to go into the sound system controls for EVERY SINGLE ENTRY in the system notifications and change the player to play (replace with whatever daemon you are using, I happen to use arts). So, if I place artsplay in ever single entry there for the player, the sounds start playing. But, if I select use KDE's sound system, nothing will play at all where as previously it would work just fine. I've now had this happen with Debian, Mandrake, Fedora Core 2 and 3, and now Gentoo. Since most of the people who run Gentoo know a little more than those that run the other distro's, I'm hoping someone in here may have had the same problem and can tell me why it does this. What in the heck causes this problem? I've changed absolutly NOTHING. Heck I wasnt even at the computer when it decided to die!!! I came home from work and I missed about 10 msgs from my wife because Kopete wasnt sending the sound. I caught hell for it to. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
[gentoo-user] VMWare with artsdsp or esddsp?
I am trying to get sound in VMWare but it will not recognize that /dev/dsp is available through artsd or esd. It keeps saying /dev/dsp does not exists, but of coarse it does since both esd and artsd both use it and they are both working. Does VMWare not allow you to use a wrapper anymore? I use to use the old 4.0 version with artsdsp and esddsp just fine, but this new 5.0 crap just wont listen to what I have to say about what is and is not there. Maybe I need to replace /dev/dsp with something else? Does anyone else have the same problem? -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Re: [gentoo-user] KDE Sound problem
Hmm well I gues that must be it since it was set to false. Now that I know what causes it, I'm just goin to try setting it to be owned by root and hopefully it wont ever get changed again unless I say hey, change this or that since I'm da boss around here. The only thing thats mission critical on this machine is whether or not I can play war2. And right now, VMWare isnt cooperating in the sound dept. Cedega runs Warcraft 2 like molasses but VMWare runs it great, IF I can ever get the thing to use sounds.

The only way i know of to stop this is by correcting the file and making it read only.

Re: [gentoo-user] VMWare with artsdsp or esddsp?
Well, I dont seem to have an adsp device in /dev. I tried it anyway with and without artsdsp and it couldnt find the device just like it said for /dev/dsp even though dsp is there and being used by artsd. I've tried to close artsd and made sure nothing was using /dev/dsp and it still wouldnt use sound.

[gentoo-user] Problems changing email clients
Hey, all-- So many people on this list have mentioned neat features of Sylpheed-Claws that I wanted to check it out. My problem is that I'm currently using Thunderbird, and I want to share my stored mail with Sylpheed-Claws. In the event Sylpheed-Claws doesn't suit me, I certainly don't want my mail winding up split all over the place (the new mail in the MH directory, and the old mail in the directory Thunderbird points to --which is not in ~/.thunderbird, btw). Now, I could always leave the mail on the POP3 server just for that, but I also want to know how Sylpheed will act upon my current settings (labels, filters, etc). And I just don't want to have to manage two mail directories, even temporarily. As I understand it, I could share the mail directory with the sylpheed-claws-mailmbox plugin, but I can't get it to work under either the GTK version (1.0.4) or the GTK2 version (1.9.9). It's a twisted tale of installs, uninstalls and reinstalls (the bulk of which I will spare you), but the upshot seems to be that under 1.0.4 no plugin would load (even the builtins), giving me 'invalid ELF header' errors, and under 1.9.9, the only mbox plugin is for 1.0.4 (GTK1, in other words, but the builtin plugins load fine). As much as I dislike GTK1 apps, I would drop back down to 1.0.4 (now updated to 1.0.4a, I see in just the couple of hours I've been playing with this; just my luck) if it would work, but I presently don't have any such assurance. So here are my questions: 1. Is this even possible in the first place? What I want is to point sylpheed to my current mail directory, which is the same one I've used since before 1) I moved to Holland 5 years ago; 2) I switched from Windows to Linux; 3) Thunderbird even existed (way back when, I was using MozillaMail, and before that Netscape Mail). In other words, I've ported this same mail directory and its contents across an ocean, from ISP to ISP, and from OS to OS-- I really don't want to screw it up now just because I changed mail clients. If I did, I'd be using Opera :-) or (heaven help us) KMail. If I can't change back to my current mail client without endangering my data (which, as you might guess, I somewhat value) via 2 conversion operations (to Sylpheed-Claws and then back again if I don't like it), then the deal is off already. 2. If this is possible, under which version of Sylpheed-Claws is it possible? My guess is that the new GTK2 version is so new that the plugin has not yet been updated to match-- but can I expect this to occur in a reasonably timely fashion (in other words, is the speed of Claws development fast, slow, or non-existent)? If I should drop back to the GTK version, how can I do so so that the plugins will load when I try to activate them? Uninstalling everything and then installing the client and the plugins in the correct order did not seem to work, and I really didn't feel like recompiling libelf for no reason. So if someone can confirm that either an updated plugin is likely within a few days, or that recompiling libelf would fix the GTK plugins, I'd wait or give it a shot. It really looks like a nice program (it did when I looked at it last year, too), and I would regret not having the opportunity to check it out more thoroughly, but I am admittedly (extremely) anal about my mail (which is actually pretty funny, all things considered, but it's my right to be as weird as I want about what I want to be weird about, and I'm exercising it :-) ).

After it runs you can use the cdrecord-wrapper.sh script downloaded from Schilling's site to drive cdrecord-prodvd. Alternatively you can use the key that is provided in the wrapper file to drive your existing cdrecord-prodvd by storing it in your environment vars as indicated in the documentation.

I also know that I have enabled network block devices in my kernel (currently gentoo-sources 2.6.11-r6), because I thought it might be useful when setting up Samba to share to and receive shares from my bf's Windows computer. But even though I have not yet configured Samba (it is, however, installed and running; it just doesn't work because I haven't configured it), and even if nbd has nothing to do for or against it, I don't see that I should be getting 127 unusable devices. Why has udev not removed them, for example (no, I'm not using the tarball; I checked /etc/conf.d/rc)? Can I (as root) remove them without issue? I've just downloaded a new kernel; if I disable ndb, will that get rid of them? Should I actually disable nbd in the kernel (or is it useful for something like Samba)? Or do I just need to configure Samba (client and server) so that *something* knows what to do with these devices, and that will do it? I don't have a clue (obviously), so any suggestions apreciated. In case it's relevant, I will also mention that this installation is 'converted' to real Gentoo from an installation of that Gentoo-based OS with an installer (I was just out of patience, but whether it was worth it is offically questionable), so if it's possible that this device creation/persistence is caused by a holdover system utility from that OS which I'm unaware of and which was not removed during the conversion process, please let me know-- that's another aspect of the orange flag cleanup that I'd like to handle as well.

[gentoo-user] mxser and kernel 2.6
Hi, I'm trying to make work a moxa smartio c168H/pci card with a kernel 2.6.11-gentoo-r8. It comes with a different driver version than previous 2.4 kernel series, which I've been using for a long time without problems so I'm sure it's ok. I could compile and load mxser module, /dev nodes were created and minicom seems to send ATs commands to the modems but they does not answer anything to the terminal. Even though TR led lights when modems receives DTR signal from computer. It's like when software and device DTE speed mismatch and the terminal doesn't works, but I could check it with msmon utility (provided by original moxa driver package), and they are sets with the right DTE speed. Despite I proved all DTE speed options and always get nothing. The mxser original driver from moxa website behave the same way than patched version that comes with linux kernel. I couldn't find any similar problem on Internet and I can't do anything with source code (no matter I know C language), because I have no idea about linux kernel programming. I'm wondering if my kernel configuration gets in conflict in some way the normal mxser functionality. Maybe, due to it's udev only or some pci setup or driver. I need an idea. greetings Jose A.

Hi, I've installed postfix to work with my domain using vmail with courier imap (I've followed gentoo guide) and it was working fine until today. Now I have some users (including me) that can't get new messages 'cause the mail software (thunderbird) keep tring to connect to the server and doesn't get any messages. I did ssh at the server and saw that the new messages are at the user .maildir. I also give a look at /var/log/messages and when I try to get my mails, my connection trying is not registered at the logs. If I try users try to send a mail, these mail are sent without a problem. So I give a try to restart courier-imapd and I could get my messages again but 30 minutes later the problem turn back but a little bit differente, 'cause this time the users can't read the messages, but all the users can see the list of messages, so I have to restart courier-imapd again. At the logs I get no warning or error messages. I'm freaking out with this problem and I thinking if I could redirect the messages delivered to my domain to a local network server (today the mail server is hosted in a hosting company with my web and dns server).

I thinking if I could turn my local network like the main mail server assigning his dyndns hostname to the prior MX record and turning the hosting server into a MX backup just for a case my adsl get down.

Shortly said some months ago apache herd made changes to the apache2 ebuilds in order to bring them more closely to upstream config policy. They separated apr apr-utils in separate ebuilds and added mpm-* USE-flags to apache ebuilds. Later think ;) it turned out that some other modules/packages (ex. mod_php, subversion ?) working on top of apache broke or didn't work as expected so think ;) they reverted the stable branch to the old-style config, while trying to get the testing (now) branch (~x86) to work correctly, seems despite the versions having equal version numbers really they *are* different.

Re: [gentoo-user] nvidia.ko needs unknown symbols
I had the same problem. I found that those symbols are defined in the agpgart module. If you load agpgart first, things should work. Why nvidia's agp support is no longer useable on its own I don't know. I never saw any comments to the effect that nvidia.ko now requires agpgart, but it seems to be the case. -bryan I noticed these error messages after kernel recompilation: if [ -r System.map ]; then /sbin/depmod -ae -F System.map 2.6.11-gentoo-r6; fi WARNING: /lib/modules/2.6.11-gentoo-r6/video/nvidia.ko needs unknown symbol agp_bind_memory WARNING: /lib/modules/2.6.11-gentoo-r6/video/nvidia.ko needs unknown symbol agp_enable WARNING: /lib/modules/2.6.11-gentoo-r6/video/nvidia.ko needs unknown symbol agp_backend_acquire WARNING: /lib/modules/2.6.11-gentoo-r6/video/nvidia.ko needs unknown symbol agp_free_memory WARNING: /lib/modules/2.6.11-gentoo-r6/video/nvidia.ko needs unknown symbol agp_allocate_memory WARNING: /lib/modules/2.6.11-gentoo-r6/video/nvidia.ko needs unknown symbol agp_unbind_memory WARNING: /lib/modules/2.6.11-gentoo-r6/video/nvidia.ko needs unknown symbol agp_copy_info WARNING: /lib/modules/2.6.11-gentoo-r6/video/nvidia.ko needs unknown symbol agp_backend_release Maybe this is why module nvidia doesn't load at startup.

[gentoo-user] courier-imapd with a proxy/backup server ?
Yeah, I saw that the problem is ocurring 'cause all the users share the same ip which one is the ip of the internet gateway. Anyway, with the new limit of connections everybody can retrieve mail but some users are annoying me about the speed to access the server. What I want is that the messages that arrive at my MAIN (the one at the hoster) server could be redirected to my proxy/backup server (the one at my local network) or if it could be, that the proxy/backup connect to the main server to catch all the accounts messages. I know I culd just use my local server as my MAIN MX but the problem is that this server is connected to internet by a adsl not confiable and with dynamic ip link. So I was thinking if I could setup this local server as my primary MX with his dyndns hostname and put the old main server as the backup MX, just in the case adsl link get down. I've also got a quick look at http://www.courier-mta.org/imap/?README.proxy.html and I saw that I can setup a proxy server to my users, but I don't know if that could be a solution too. Any advices would be appreciated. Tks, Claudinei Matos On 5/16/05, Jonathan Nichols [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Claudinei Matos wrote: I was looking at this parameter when I got your mail.

So if I have 10 users trying to see his email and 5 of they try to open 2 folders at the same time I will have 20 connections on the server. Is that correct? Pretty much, yeah. but, it's per IP.

Did you do som updates or a kernel upgrade recently? Hi No. The machine had been up 150 days and had had no updates. Since it is not directly connected to the internet and does one backend thing only (lots of java server processes) it does not get as updated as often as it perhaps should be since it is a PITA to take it down and it is not connected directly to the internet so a hack against it is not as likely.

Re: [gentoo-user] VMWare with artsdsp or esddsp?
The docs for that wrapper say that its only used for 4.x. I've been able to use sound in 4.x just by using artsdsp or esddsp in the past (although it wasnt the best, it did work) but I am now using 5.0. I gave it a whirl and still it didnt work. It still says there is no /dev/dsp device. Both artsplay and esdplay are currently working. KDE uses arts, so I know thats working. NWN works great with artsdsp and some of my media players use esddsp. Is there some command that will tell me which /dev device that artsd or esd is using? I am pretty sure its /dev/dsp, but with absolutly nothing working that I have tried with VMWare and /dev/dsp, there is a chance that they could be using something else. Richard Fish wrote: Ryan wrote: I am trying to get sound in VMWare but it will not recognize that /dev/dsp is available through artsd or esd. It keeps saying /dev/dsp does not exists, but of coarse it does since both esd and artsd both use it and they are both working. Does VMWare not allow you to use a wrapper anymore? I use to use the old 4.0 version with artsdsp and esddsp just fine, but this new 5.0 crap just wont listen to what I have to say about what is and is not there. Maybe I need to replace /dev/dsp with something else? Does anyone else have the same problem? It is possible to do, but you need to make sure that you are using the most up-to-date wrapper available on the VMWare ftp site. Search the VMWare forums for a link to vmwaredsp. I am using vmwaredsp-1.2. Older versions (and wrappers provided in other packages) don't override the 64-bit file operations that VMWare now uses. Also, you must use =glibc-20050125-r1.

I can only speak to artsd, which if you have configured to use ALSA, will not use /dev/dsp at all. /dev/dsp is the (obsolete) OSS API, so an application using ALSA will not use it at all. esd should be similar. FYI, the wrappers work by overloading the file operation functions such as open(), read(), write(), close(), etc. When the replacement function in the wrapper sees an attempt to open /dev/dsp, it instead opens the appropriate sound library/server. So it doesn't matter whether you have /dev/dsp or not if you are using a wrapper. The current artsdsp and esddsp will not work (at least on a 32-bit system) with VMWare, because VMWare is a large-file aware application and thus uses open64(), read64(), write64(), etc.. That is why you need vmwaredsp. You may want to turn on debugging in vmwaredsp: 1. Change #define VMDSP_DEBUG (0) to #define VMDSP_DEBUG (1) in vmdsp.c, and rebuild/re-install vmwaredsp. 2. Modify the startup script vmwarearts (or vmwareesd) to add VMDSP_DEBUG=1 to the command line. When you run VMWare after these steps it should create a /tmp/vmdsp.log file with some info about what the wrapper is doing. -Richard -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

I recently updated a Mysql box from Mysql 3.2.x, 2.4 kernel, dual PIII, and 2GB RAM to Mysql 4.0.x, 2.6 kernel and nptl, dual P4 Xeons, and 4GB of RAM. With hardware upgrade it's been hard to tell exectly what improvements were caused by which upgrades. The db's themselves are around 4-5 GB in total so the new server can fit a significant percentage more of the Mysql data into RAM. We moved from Mysql 3.2.54 to 4.0.24. The disk I/O is U320 on the new server compared to U160 on the old, but both with RAID cards and similar RAID setups. The old server was running 400-500 mysql threads, a number of apache boxes make calls to it, and averaging 300 queries/sec. The load would peak at around 2 with the number of threads being the main influnce of load. The new server is doing the same number of queries and has not been completing them any faster than the old server. However load remains a steady 0.10-0.20 whether there are 300 threads or 500. This appears to be the main benefit of the new threading. Better scalabilty and more efficient use of resources in a highly threaded application rather than any outright speed increase.

Re: [gentoo-user] adding feature to asterisk ebuilt
OK, here is request I've made; I'm not sure I've entered it correctly as it is more like a feature improvement than a bug. http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=92747 To my understanding NVBackgroundDetect is a competition to Digium own faxdetect feature they have incorporated into asterisk. There is no rush for them to implement/incorporate this NVBackgroundDetect code as they are trying to push their own cards. I'm not in favor of the internal cards and prefer ATA unit. No, not everybody needs it; but for me and many like me it would allow us to move fax on an internal extension extension and free up the line (You can use the fax line for an incoming calls). You can read how the NVBackgroundDetect works at: http://www.voip-info.org/tiki-index.php?page=NVBackgroundDetect The code is GPL from Newman Telecom Asterisk has a fax detection code but it only works with ZAP channel (Digium Card) which I'm not in favor (I prefer ATA - external units like Sipura SPA-3000 and/or any other ATA unit). Right.. so if I'm reading this correctly, NVBackgroundDetect is an improvement on Asterisk's own fax-detection code. I have a X100P clone which might not be supported by Asterisk - NVBackgroundDetect detects faxes for ALL cards? I'm not sure if how the code works, I haven't test it yet, but according to Newaman from Telecom nobody reported any problem with their code. Yes, I would say it is an improvement as it works with all other hardware not only ZAP channel cards. Unless this introduces incompatibilities with fax-detect on Digium's ZAP channel hardware, it would seem there's no reason not to include this as part of a default Asterisk install?? I don't think there will be any incompatibility or conflict, it is just an extra module; you can use it or not. It is just seating and idling until you call it into action. I've the code from Newman Telecom but I'll file an ebuild request as you suggested. The code would be suitable for many like me that don't use ZAP channel but would like to have/take advantage of fax-detection. Please post a link to the bug. If you're not comfortable hacking the ebuild yourself I might well have a crack at it - I have Asterisk hardware sitting here waiting for me to find the time to implement it. Here is the link: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=92747 As I said I have the code and can email it to you; but you can as well get it from the Newman Telecom directly. I was able to compile NVBackgroundDetect using CVS version but ver.1.0.6 and 1.0.7 has a bug with SIP and dtmf inband; so I went back to Gentoo 1.0.5 versio; However I'm using now dtmf out of band dtmfmode=rfc2833 and it is working OK. -- #Joseph -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Re: [gentoo-user] Help with nautilus
A. R. wrote: Hello, Would you please provide more details about the actual error? One good way to do that is to launch nautilus from a terminal with the following command IIRC: nautilus --no-desktop --file-browser and take a look at the ouput when it crashes. I used to use gnome, and I can say that nautilus was a bit buggy IMHO, but I was using gnome 2.6.

This appears to be the main benefit of the new threading. Better scalabilty and more efficient use of resources in a highly threaded application rather than any outright speed increase. That may translate into a speed increase if NPTL helps eliminate any resource contentions you may have had.

Re: [gentoo-user] The NPTL difference
What do you mean by rebuilding the machine? Do packages need to be recompiled under the new glibc to take advantage of NPTL? no, just no. There is almost never the need to recompile your system, and this is one of the points, where recompiling is pointless. Spend your time doing something more usefull. NPTL is a drop in replacement ... just go not ntplonly, because some apps don't like it.

If not no big deal as long as I can do it myself and not cause problems for portage. As I work to clean up my world file it's nice to find everythig together in one place or another. Anyway, thanks for the info although the craziness of how much it changes things seems very non-intuitive to me. cheers, Mark -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

With 'nptl', you can say the apps which implementation to use. Great for broken/old apps with problems. BUT if you use ntplonly you can NOT go back, and if an app has a problem with nptl, you are out of luck. So, just remove ntplonly from your make.conf and everything will be fine. Since nptlonly should not be set by default, removing nptlonly should be as good as -nptlonly ;) -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
