Re: [gentoo-user] Anybody got OS/2 working under linux?

However, Parallels does, and it's a lot less expensive. I have eComStation working in a Parallels VM here. I made a test install on a VMware Server installation (Host: AMD64 + Gentoo 2006.1). I created a VM (OS type other). Then i exit the console, changed in the *.vmx file the key guestOS to guestOS=os2experimental and start the installation of OS/2 Warp 4 (german) from CD. Somewhere in between i got two SYS... messages. After a reboot the install completes and seems to be ok now. Hope that helps. regards Petric -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
[gentoo-user] What's the deal with Bittorrent v5?
So I noticed the other day that Bittorrent version 5 is out and has been for a while, (http://download.bittorrent.com/dl/?M=D) though there isn't even an ~arch version in portage yet. Is it running under a different name or is the ebuild not being maintained?

[gentoo-user] Encrypting a file containing confidential info
Hi All, For some years now I have saved my passwords and other rather critical login data and information as database file on a Psion pda. The file is encrypted and decrypted using a Psion application called FreeCrypt. FreeCrypt uses an RC4 algorithm to encrypt the data. As the hardware is approaching the end of its useful life I wanted to move away from my dependence on Psion, or use another method in parallel. I have of course gpg on my laptop, but I am concerned that I will be keeping both my private key and the encrypted file on the same machine. What would you suggest I should use bearing in mind that simplicity and use of default linux tools would be most preferable, commensurate with as high a degree of security as possible. -- Regards, Mick pgpd4ZhrBpcxs.pgp Description: PGP signature
[gentoo-user] Basic Vmware setup
Hi, Due to circumstances beyond my control I have to run (once a month) Windows (98 or 2000) :-( I guess that vmware can do the job.

The descriptions are not clear about the differences. I would suggest to try vmware server first. I have run all three, and the biggest differences between them are: player: can only use existing virtual machine configurations, it cannot edit or create them. Equivalent performance to workstation. Also has a very nice full-screen mode. Free (beer). workstation: best all-around performance for desktop tasks. Can create or edit existing configurations, has excellent (2D only) graphics performance. Costs some $'s. server: Can create or edit existing configurations. Can leave a virtual machine running in the background if you close the console window or even logoff. The console can also access virtual machines across the network. The downside to all of this goodness is that graphics performance suffers...something like accessing a remote system with VNC. Free (beer). All have equivalent capabilities for accessing the network, and the guest OS never really knows that it is running in a virtual machine. Note that it is entirely possible to use server to create virtual machines, and then use player to run them, if the graphics performance bothers you too much. -Richard -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Hi, do you know, what's going on at present in kernel development? We had libata based SATA drivers for a few kernel-versions now. Since 2.6.19, we seem to be offered libata based PATA drivers too! Why are they doing it? Does this make any sense to you? The new drivers don't replace the old ones, at present time. But are they planned to? Or do they just exist for the fun of it ?

Before I go ahead, a few more questions... 1) I have to allow a couple of ~x86 packages in package.keywords first (yes, I did an emerge --sync). Is this expected? =app-emulation/vmware-server-1.0.1.29996-r4 ~x86 =app-emulation/vmware-modules-1.0.0.15-r1 ~x86 2) I notice that sys-libs/pam is loaded as a dependancy. I don't mind the file sitting there, being used by vmware. Does it just affect vmware? If pam kicks in for other programs, it's a showstopper for me. [m3000][root][~] emerge --ask vmware-server These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done! [ebuild N] app-emulation/vmware-modules-1.0.0.15-r1 [ebuild N] sys-apps/xinetd-2.3.14 USE=-perl -tcpd [ebuild N] sys-libs/pam-0.78-r3 USE=-berkdb -nis -pam_chroot -pam_console -pam_timestamp -pwdb (-selinux) [ebuild N] app-emulation/vmware-server-1.0.1.29996-r4 Would you like to merge these packages? [Yes/No] no 3) My current OS/2 machine is an old PII with a 3.2 gig harddrive. Can I short-circuit the install by copying the working OS/2 system to an empty VM? Think of it as a stage 3 install for OS/2 g. -- Walter Dnes [EMAIL PROTECTED] In linux /sbin/init is Job #1 My musings on technology and security at http://techsec.blog.ca -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
[gentoo-user] mounttool
Hi folks, some distros come with a little utility called mounttool. I can loop mount images of encrypted filesystems (cryptsetup but for loop mounting). I can't seem to find it in gentoo. Does it hide somewhere? Or can someone recommend a similar tool in portage?

[gentoo-user] Re: [OT] VMware legal question
· Daniel Iliev [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Is it legal to do the following: 1) emerge vmware-workstation 2) build some images (within the 30 day trial period) 3) emerge -C vmware-workstation (within the 30 day trial period) 4) emerge vmware-player and use it to play the images created by vmware-workstation That might be legal, but why don't you go the absolutely legal way and use vmware-server instead of vmware-workstation?
