[gentoo-user] swiching from gnome to gnome-light
Hi! I am planning of switching from gnome to gnome-light. How can I unmerge gnome and in particular remove all packages like games, gnumeric, abiword and so on. I found that I actually do not use them so I think gnome-light should be enough. Regards - NEU: Fragen stellen - Wissen, Meinungen und Erfahrungen teilen. Jetzt auf Yahoo! Clever.

[gentoo-user] problems with partition table
Hi! I think I have a serious problem with my partition table. I did all the partitions with fdisk but may be not right, or somewhen screwed my partition table up. I want to use a graphical tool like gparted also doing some changes on my fat32 partition. But when I installed gparted I got an empty partition table with nothing than unallocated 55.89 GB (my disk is an 60 GB Hitachi) nothing else!!! Here is my outpu from # fdisk -l fdisk -l Disk /dev/hda: 60.0 GB, 60011642880 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 7296 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/hda1 * 1191315361888+ 7 HPFS/NTFS Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary. /dev/hda21914420818427027+ c W95 FAT32 (LBA) Partition 2 does not end on cylinder boundary. /dev/hda35100729617637480f W95 Ext'd (LBA) Partition 3 does not end on cylinder boundary. /dev/hda442085099 7164990 83 Linux /dev/hda5 *51005108 68008+ 83 Linux /dev/hda651085173 521608+ 82 Linux swap / Solaris /dev/hda75173729617047768+ 83 Linux Partition table entries are not in disk order This seems wrong to me. Also parted says something with overlapping partitions and its right I think. Is there any chance to repair this without destroying the whole installation? I have backuped my installation with rsync and also did save my mbr: dd if=/dev/hda of=/backup/mbr512.img bs=512 count=1 and dd if=/dev/hda of=/backup/mbr446.img bs=446 count=1 Must I somehow reinstall my partition table?

Did you write/save the partition table after your changes? Did you reboot thereafter? I make some suggestions below but they come with the health warning attached that I have no responsibility if it doesn't work. Here is my outpu from # fdisk -l fdisk -l Disk /dev/hda: 60.0 GB, 60011642880 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 7296 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/hda1 * 1191315361888+ 7 HPFS/NTFS Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary. This is in itself is not a problem. If you create/resize partitions based on MB you may or may not hit a clean cylinder boundary. Do your resizing in cylinders and the end result will coincide with their boundaries. /dev/hda21914420818427027+ c W95 FAT32 (LBA) Partition 2 does not end on cylinder boundary. /dev/hda35100729617637480f W95 Ext'd (LBA) Partition 3 does not end on cylinder boundary. Look what has happened here, your extended partition starts at cyl 5100, while your first logical partition starts at cyl 4208. I'd say that neither are correct. I suggest that you resize your extended partition hda3 to start at cyl 4209, i.e. straight after the end of the previous primary partition (hda2). /dev/hda442085099 7164990 83 Linux Here you need to change the beginning of this partition to be straight after the end of the previous primary partition and at the beginning of the extended partition. So, hda4 should start at cyl 4209. /dev/hda5 *51005108 68008+ 83 Linux This is good, but you do not need the boot flag. As a matter of fact it may confuse your WinXP bootloader and Linux does not need it. /dev/hda651085173 521608+ 82 Linux swap / This is not good as it overlaps the end of the previous partition. hda6 should start at cyl 5109. Solaris /dev/hda75173729617047768+ 83 Linux Partition table entries are not in disk order That's because they were created at a chronological sequence which do not reflect their physical order on the disk. Not really important. This seems wrong to me. Also parted says something with overlapping partitions and its right I think. Is there any chance to repair this without destroying the whole installation? I have backuped my installation with rsync and also did save my mbr: dd if=/dev/hda of=/backup/mbr512.img bs=512 count=1 and dd if=/dev/hda of=/backup/mbr446.img bs=446 count=1 Since you have a backup the worst that can happen is to correct the partitions as suggested above and discover that your OS cannot read them! In that case reformat them and use your back up to restore the data. An alternative approach is to restore your partition table to a previous version and with it the previous boundaries of your partitions. After I was faced with a borked partition table too, I used testdisk to recover and restore previous partition table entries. http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk HTH. -- Regards, Mick pgprodZnu3apP.pgp Description: PGP signature

[gentoo-user] emerge --depclean wants to remove required packages
Hi, I've been cleaning up a machine trying to fix a problem with Evolution crashing. I'm down to the point where all the dependencies (emerge -DuN and revdep-rebuild) are clean but when I run emerge --depclean wants remove packages that would break dependencies. I understand that I could fix this by adding these 15 packages to the world file on this machine, but isn't doing that really wrong? Is there no tool better than emerge --depclean for determining what really needs to be removed? Here's a list of what --depclean wants to remove: net-misc/curl perl-core/Digest-MD5 perl-core/DB_File media-libs/jasper dev-lang/tk sys-libs/libcap perl-core/libnet x11-libs/libXvMC perl-core/Storable dev-lang/swig dev-scheme/guile x11-libs/fox-wrapper gnome-extra/at-spi media-libs/jbigkit dev-lang/tcl Many, but not all, of these seem to be traceable back to either Evolution, spamassassin or Gnome. Are these bugs in the ebuilds that should be reported or is there some correct way for me to fix this up? Thanks, Mark -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

[gentoo-user] Avoiding core dumps
Dear gentoo users, since a few months I am getting core dumps in / and $HOME/ on my notebook. I am not aware of having changed anything with my PAM or similar settings. Has there be any changes to the default policy in PAM concerning core dumps? I would like to suppress the generation of core dumps for normal users. ulimit -c as normal user gives me 976 block as root I get 0. I know that setting ulimit -c 0 in .bash_profile or .profile could be a solution but I'm looking for a more appropriate way to avoid core dumps for normal users. I already read http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/qa/backtraces.xml but the information there seems to be somehow outdated since I don't have a /etc/limits.conf only a /etc/limits. But AFAIK this ought to be irrelevant for me as I am using PAM? Anyhow, I did not change anything to /etc/security/limits.conf or /etc/limits, i.e. everything in these files is commented out. I also checked /etc/conf.d/rc and it seems to be ok. So how can I get rid of these core dumps? I am using sys-libs/pam-0.78-r5. Some more general information about my system: # emerge --version Portage 2.1.2-r9 (default-linux/x86/2006.1, gcc-4.1.1, glibc-2.5-r0, 2.6.19-ck2-r1 i686) What else? Thanks in advance.

I am not aware of having changed anything with my PAM or similar settings. Has there be any changes to the default policy in PAM concerning core dumps? I would like to suppress the generation of core dumps for normal users. ulimit -c as normal user gives me 976 block as root I get 0. I know that setting ulimit -c 0 in .bash_profile or .profile could be a solution but I'm looking for a more appropriate way to avoid core dumps for normal users. I already read http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/qa/backtraces.xml but the information there seems to be somehow outdated since I don't have a /etc/limits.conf only a /etc/limits. But AFAIK this ought to be irrelevant for me as I am using PAM? Anyhow, I did not change anything to /etc/security/limits.conf or /etc/limits, i.e. everything in these files is commented out. I also checked /etc/conf.d/rc and it seems to be ok. So how can I get rid of these core dumps? I am using sys-libs/pam-0.78-r5.

[gentoo-user] doc USE flag causes circular dependencies error

xorg-x11, this morning when I tried to merge KDE, I got a circular

adding/removing lines/individual USE flags I found that the doc flag was
the source of the error:

Re: [gentoo-user] What if the firewall doesn't start?

Well, you'll get an error during boot that iptables did not come up. The machine is headless though. I assume that shorewall is only run when you change the script and otherwise /etc/init.d/iptables is run as a default service after boot. Ouch. No. I'm running shorewall in the default runlevel and iptables explicitly not at all. I thought running shorewall was all I needed to do. Can you confirm that I should be running iptables in the default runlevel and shorewall only when I want to update the config?
