Re: [gentoo-user] [OT] One line script for md5sum
token* is the best. I also have this useful script in my bashrc. its just an extended version of this. [[ $(md5sum < file1) == $(md5sum < file2) ]] so you can just give it two files as its argument and it returns 0 if they are the same. -v for verbose md5() { local v x y; [[ $1 == -v ]] && [[ $# == 3 ]] && { v=true; shift; } if [[ $# != 2 ]]; then [[ $v ]] && echo Error: need 2 arguments. return 2 fi if [[ $v ]]; then x=$(md5sum < "$1" ) || return 2 y=$(md5sum < "$2" ) || return 2 else { x=$(md5sum < "$1" ) ;} &> /dev/null || return 2 { y=$(md5sum < "$2" ) ;} &> /dev/null || return 2 fi if [[ $x == $y ]]; then [[ $v ]] && echo Same. return 0 else [[ $v ]] && echo Different. return 1 fi } - Ian
[gentoo-user] BCM4401 Ethernet Card stopped working after kernel upgrade
Hi All, I just upgraded to sys-kernel/tuxonice-sources-2.6.26 kernel. Everything was working fine before but now my bcm4401 ethernet card stopped working.

[gentoo-user] {OT} Storage expansion options
My desktop currently runs one of these: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822148140 I'm pretty much out of space and I'm trying figure out the best way to expand. The factors to consider are cost, capacity, speed, noise, and heat. Should I get another identical drive and set up RAID, or will that create too much noise and heat? Should I get rid of my current drive and get a new drive, or will that not be much faster? Velociraptors are reputed to be very fast, but $200 for 300GB is pretty expensive and 1TB would require 4 drives which I think would create a lot of noise and heat. Just looking for advice from experienced storage folk. - Grant

Do you want to test if the files are OK? Then you would already have the md5sums so you should use md5sum -c To generate the sums, just run md5sum In any event, I think you need a fancy for loop. To run the same command on every file in a directory: for I in * ; do ; done for a list of named files: for I in file1, file2 ; do ; done for a list of files with a clear name structure: for I in a b c d ; do token${I} ; done or for I in $(seq 1 10) ; do token${I} ; done The last two are insanely useful.

This is a standard blocker, the process of how to deal with it is detailed in the handbook. But here goes: You have an arch system as per your ACCEPT_KEYWORDS.

[gentoo-user] vmware-workstation & virtualbox crash - Any ideas?
I can't get either vmware-workstation or virtualbox to work. Either software's forums have been no help and you guys are my last hope. I've tried vmware-workstation-6.5.0 and 6.5.1. Either one crashes when clicking the "Create a new virtual machine" button with "Invalid partition map found". I have: sda1 Boot Primary Linux ext2 41.13 sda2 Primary Linux swap / Solaris 518.20 sda3 Primary Linux ext3 319511.01 The user is in the vmware group and I've started the vmware services. With virtualbox, I get sort of a partial system freeze when I try to start a virtual machine for the first time. There is no terminal output. The user is in the vboxusers group and I've loaded the necessary kernel module. I've tried 1.6.6 and 2.0.6. Does anyone have any sort of idea on either of these? - Grant
