I've seen a similar problem before:  a chrooted webhost running Apache,
MySQL, and a very old version of phpnuke.  MySQL ran a muck using 50%+ of
CPU time, eventually.  I had a cron job set to restart it once an hour, but
even that became too much.  We eventually moved the site to another server
on a temporary basis, then migrated to vBulletin.

Hi John,
   I'm having a few issues with it, but not specifically any mouse
problems. I run both Gentoo and Win7 VMs, and I run the Gentoo VMs on
both Gentoo and Win7 hosts. The mouse has been a little touchy within
the Gentoo VM on a Win7 host, at least the first day or two. However I
followed the guide I found and enabled the additions package in
rc-update and things got better. No mouse problems with any of the VMs
on my Gentoo host.

   My big problem is that a perfectly working Win7 VM under 3.?.? now
'pauses' at odd times. It's working fine, but I come back and hour
later and it's all grayed out. I unpause it and it is working again
for another hour. The same VM under the previous version didn't do
this ever.

In that case the problem may not be php related?

I seem to remember that a couple of years ago apache2 changed its vhost 
configuration files.  I can't recall anymore what these changes were and of 
course I don't know if your problem is in anyway related to it.

Sorry I can't be of more help ...

If you use emacs you could also use docview mode to achieve that. It's a
little bit processor heavy but just does the work for me.

Yeah, sure, dream on: jan, 14th and still no new box here! ;-)

Today I read about the core-i7-2600K ... sounds even better, cheaper and
faster.

What I wonder: the i7-2600K does only have VT-x but no VT-d (while the
i7-2600 has both VT-x and VT-d). As I want to run KVM virtualization on
it I somehow hesitate to not buy the wrong one (did that back then with
a core2duo without VT at all).

AFAI know I don't need VT-d but I would appreciate some positive
feedback on this.

Does anyone here already run such a new CPU with gentoo?
Impressions?

Thanks a lot, Stefan

The defects seen in "cactus datashield" will cause many drives to go into an 
endless loop in firmware in case you send the READ TOC command to the drive.

Hald was written by people who know too few about CD-ROM handling and as hald 
and other programs (e.g. libGStreamer and cdparanoia) send a READ TOC to the
drive, they may trigger this problem. The only way out of this problem is to
mechanically reload the media and not to let any other program access the 
drive except for cdda2wav.

At least from konsole I can use cdda2wav with normal speed, while the 
ripping KDE apps all seem to fail. Since KDE is still based on hald, about 
what kind of effects you're talking?

My situation improved a bit after upgrading to the latest udev available. 
With 164-r1 I don't have these errors in the log anymore. Unfortunately when 
I try to rip the CD with KDE stuff, the process slows still down until it 
aborts.

However, the situation improved with the CLI tools (even running from with 
KDE). Cdda2Wav takes now 2,5 mins for a 45min CD, cdparanoia takes nearly 
twice, but succeeds also. After reconfiguring abcde to take cdda2wav I can 
at least rip CDs into MP3s in a quite normal time.

I think it's (fortunately) possible to have wm-independent (and
X-independent) automounters. But the last time I used one was several
years ago.

If there's a driver in the kernel for your wireless hardware, select
it and use -Dwext.  The madwifi driver will work with particular
wireless chipsets only (atheros).  If there is no wireless driver in
Linux, then use ndiswrapper (you'll need to emerge it) and use the

Not sure why your cdda2wav --version output is cut off, maybe an
terminal encoding problem? For version 3.00 I've got this:
$ cdda2wav --version

Which is obviously the wrong characters, too. It should say Heiko
Eißfeldt and Jörg Schilling.

But maybe it was not only a problem for us, because they changed the
spelling to use more simplified characters later. The latest version
in ~amd64 shows me this instead:

You probably haven't built the correct driver (module). Does ifconfig -a
show the device?

Does lshw (you might need to emerge it) show the device?

Re: [gentoo-user] why always display this when kernel start

[doherty pete]

i did not follow the handbook,i install gentoo with ubuntu
but i sure i use the commend:

sudo mount /dev/sda10 /media/gentoo
sudo mount -t proc none /media/gentoo/proc
sudo mount -o bind /dev/ /media/gentoo/dev

and stage is

This problem was created because Pete did not follow to the letter the
handbook, which advises to mount -o bind /dev /mnt/gentoo/dev, or if
he did, he did not untar the stage 3 fs properly, or if he used a
stage 4 tar file he did not create the necessary /dev files manually.

Your system seems to be missing critical device files

To rectify this situation, please do the following:

You may refer to these instructions at /etc/issue.

It looks like some files are missing in /dev but before /dev is mounted 
as tmpfs.  This is what I would do to fix it.  Boot a bootable CD, 
Knoppix, systemrescue or whatever.  Mount the root partition of Gentoo.  
Copy null and console over to the dev directory on the hard drive.  If 
you mount like in the install guide, cp -v /dev/null /mnt/gentoo/dev and 
repeat for console.  If you mount differently, replace the needed 
parts.  ;-)


Keep in mind, when you first start to boot, /dev/ is not mounted like it 
is after you get booted.  So, before udev gets started making the needed 
files, the system needs null and console.  It seems there was a third 
one that was needed but I'm not 100% sure. I always make sure to copy 
those two when I do a install.  No problems so far.


Hope that helps.

Strange.
I think when I had forgotten to create the necessary items in /dev, the 
system did not even come up. It needs at least console and null, and for 
framebuffer stuff also tty1. So I have these:

weird ~ # ls -l /mnt/dev/
insgesamt 0
crw--- 1 root tty  5, 1 10. Jun 2010  console
crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 1, 3 10. Jun 2010  null
crw--- 1 root tty  4, 1 10. Jun 2010  tty1

The bug report has this, maybe this is your problem, too?

  I just ran into this and managed to fix it with an extra step. The
  problem was in changed permissions on /dev/null. ls -l /dev/null
  gave crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 1, ... while /mnt/fixit/dev/null gave
  crw-r--r-- 1 root root 19, ... In order to fix it I had to rm
  /mnt/fixit/dev/null first, and then cp -a /dev/null /mnt/fixit/dev/null
  as suggested.
  I can't say I understand how this happens but now the computer boots 
  again. 


I'd prefer to have only those in /dev, and not all the other stuff that udev 
adds, but it shouldn't harm either.

How does your /fixit/dev/ look like? Are there any entries at all? Is 
console and null there? Please show the output of this:

ls -l /fixit/dev | wc -l
ls -l /fixit/dev/{console,null}

I get this:
weird ~ # ls -l /fixit/dev | wc -l
4
weird ~ # ls -l /fixit/dev/{console,null}
crw--- 1 root tty  5, 1 10. Jun 2010  /mnt/dev/console
crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 1, 3 10. Jun 2010  /mnt/dev/null

[gentoo-user] why always display this when kernel start

[doherty pete]

when kernel start ,display this

Your system seems to be missing critical device files
in /dev !  Although you may be running udev or devfs,
the root partition is missing these required files !

To rectify this situation, please do the following:
mkdir /mnt/fixit
mount --bind / /mnt/fixit
cp -a /dev/* /mnt/fixit/dev/
umount /mnt/fixit
rmdir /mnt/fixit

You may refer to these instructions at /etc/issue.
If you previously had an issue file, it has been
backed up at /etc/issue.devfix.  Once you've fixed
your system, you will have to restore your old issue
file in order to get rid of this warning.

Thanks for using Gentoo ! :)

Be careful!

There is a set of red-book deviations that is called "cactus datashield"

cdparanoia will not extract more than 40 seconds from such a "CD" regardless of 
the drive you are using.

With cdda2wav you will be able to extract the whole "CD" as long as the drive 
is not cunfused by the media and as long as you don't run hostile software like 
"hald" or similar that helps to confuse the drive.

The latest cdparanoia is from 2001. There seem to appear "later" versions but 
they do not increase functionality, they just fix some C syntax problems that 
prevent compilation with newer GCC versions. But all cdparanoia versions are 
based on a cdda2wav from 1997 and thus use outdated read functions.

The interesting question seems to be: Why do you try to confuse people 
regarding to cdda2wav by modifiying it's output?

cdda2wav-3.0 is from June 2010 and there is even a 3.01a02 from December 2010.

Yeah, the wav file played fine.  At least, it started out fine; I only
listened to the first 15 - 30 seconds to make sure it sounded ok, and
then assumed the rest was fine, since nothing else had even gotten that far.

And yeah, the errors start as soon as I put the CD in the drive.  What
automounting tool might I have in FVWM?  I use a pretty basic config
(which is why I like FVWM, not many frills to muck things up :-P).

What KDE/Gnome/X stuff are you talking about?  Unless they're
auto-started by a service, I don't know of anything that'd be running
like that, especially from a console.

 As far as I know, CD-Paranoia access the cd-drive a bit more directly

I think pk wanted to point that, as cdparanoia read the disks, that

Hi,

configure a static IP or bring up the interface without configuration
with config_eth0=( "null" )

If you do not want dhcp at all, unmerge dhcpcd.

There is even more: Sony sells "CDs" that claim(*) that Sony did not have the 
Copyrights in the songs while making the copy.

You completely missunderstand the purpose and ability of cdparanoia. Cdparanoia 
does not implement anything that helps you to read such non-CDs. If you could 
read all your CDs so far, you either don't own such intentionally broken media 
or there is a workaround in the firmware of your drive already.

cdparanoia _only_ implements strategies to work around flaky readout results.

The non-CDs have intentional deviations from the red book standard and for this 
reason, there is nothing flaky on them. They produce stable deviating results 
that cannot be handled by cdparanoia.

cdda2wav on the other side implements strategies to work around varios red book 
deviations that help to read such non-standard media.

It is the read layer (being below the paranoia layer) that is bad inside 
cdparanoia and the read layer has been significantly inreased inside cdda2wav 
during the past 14 years after cdparanoia forked cdda2wav.

Re: [gentoo-user] how to forbid dhcp for eth0

[Vortex 3]

If your eth0 is a wired interface, you could use ifplugd[1] (on portage's
sys-apps) as mentioned on chapter 6 of the gentoo linux x86 handbook [2].
Basically, it keep the interface down while the cable is unplugged, so you
won't wait dhcp at startup. Additionally, it will bring it up when you plug
the cable (and you could execute other actions like, for example, stop the
wireless when you plug the cable). Very easy to use.

You can found some examples on /etc/conf.d/net.example

Another useful references could be [3] and [4].
