Re: [gentoo-user] Mailman archives are not written anymore - why??

2007-03-18 Thread Wolfgang Liebich
Hi,

Just for the records - it seems a leftover lock was the
problem. Following event sequence:
Once upon a time the disk was full. Mailman could not write archives.
Upon a restart (or crash?) locks were left over in the locks/
subdirectory
Henceforth all mails which would be to archive languished in
qfiles/archive
I stopped mailman, removed all lockfiles and restarted it. The
qfiles/archive directory was emptied, and suddenly I had archive
directories for february and march and many formerly missing emails
there...
Ciao,
Wolfgang.

[gentoo-user] failed to install tinyERP: how to fix?

2007-03-18 Thread Zhang Weiwu
Hello. When I emerged tinyERP server I was told I should run the below
command to configure it. But it doesn't work.

emerson files #  emerge --config =app-office/tinyerp-server-4.0.2


Configuring pkg...

 * In the following, the 'postgres' user will be used.
 * Creating database user terp ...
createuser: unrecognized option `--no-createrole'
Try "createuser --help" for more information.   [ !! ]

!!! ERROR: app-office/tinyerp-server-4.0.2 failed.
Call stack:

  tinyerp-server-4.0.2.ebuild, line 69:   Called die

!!! Failed to create database user
!!! If you need support, post the topmost build error, and the call 
stack if relevant.

I first think maybe having --no-createrole is not important so I
modified /usr/portage/app-office/tinyerp-server/tinyerp-server-4.0.2.ebuild, 
replacing this line:
createuser --quiet --username=postgres --createdb --no-adduser 
--no-createrole ${TINYERP_USER}
with this line
createuser --quiet --username=postgres --createdb --no-adduser  
${TINYERP_USER}

My modification doesn't seem to work, I run "emerge --config" again but
still exactly the same error message.

How do I proceed on? Any suggestions?

Best Regards
Zhang Weiwu

[gentoo-user] Seamonkey and maps

2007-03-18 Thread Dale
Hi,

I have noticed something funny lately.  I can't get google maps or yahoo
maps to work.  It loads the page up but there is no map.

I also noticed that on a couple other sites some java stuff is not
working.  Instant messenger being one of them.  Also my space is acting
weird too.

Anybody happen to know what all these may have in common?  I did upgrade
Seamonkey a while back but it seemed to work for a while.  I have the
following java packages installed:

I'm hoping someone will have a few ideas.  This is getting on my nerves.

Thanks for the help.

I didn't build in any mysql-related stuff (ie. mod_auth_mysql).

I already did, had no other chance. 
When stopping mysql kills httpd, it's an very bad bug for 
production systems.

hmm. would require me to switch over to PAM. 

Coda's very unreliable nevertheless, so I'm probably going to write
some management daemon which handles venus startup, logins, 
(dis-)connects, etc.

Or maybe I'm going to write my own distributed fs which has full
unix semantics (via FUSE) ...

Has no good caching an disconnected operation, no useless for me.

I don't know what "VESAFB-TNG statement" means. Can you elaborate?
Anyway, I think they are already the same: I have
video=vesafb:ywrap,mtrr,[EMAIL PROTECTED]  in the appropriate line in
grub.conf, and Modes  "1280x1024" in xorg.conf. The update frequency is
set to 60Hz (recommended for this monitor) in the Control panel of KDE.
1280x1024 is the native resolution of the monitor.

Thanks,

[gentoo-user] adjustment console/X

2007-03-18 Thread Jorge Almeida

The two boxes I use have LCD monitors, of different brands. When in X,
the "real estate" area is optimized. When I switch to a VC, the idea the
system has about the physical dimensions of the screen changes, and a
part of the displayed stuff is cropped. I can adjust it by pressing the
Auto button in the monitor controls, but then I get a black vertical
strip on the left after switching back to X, and I have to press Auto
again, etc.

The boxes have different graphical cards, one with the ATI kernel driver
and the other with the nvidia driver. The console driver is VESA-TNG in
both cases, but with VESA the problem is the same.

Is there some workaround? Some way the coax the system into using the
correct physical dimensions in X and VC?
