[gentoo-user] AMD X2 timings
Hi, After comming to termis with various make.conf issues after upgrading CPU to K8 I now find myself struggeling with another problem, or rather two. First I found this http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5105. It seems that a timing issue with TSC timings in the kernel makes the the kernel clock lose sync (or something like that). According to the changelog for 2.6.13-r4 ( http://www.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/*checkout*/sys-kernel/gentoo-sources/ChangeLoghttp://www.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/*checkout*/sys-kernel/gentoo-sources/ChangeLog) this bug is fixed, but I still have problems with the keyboard repeating keystrokes, like thiiis (just pressing ´i´ once), after upgrading to 2.6.13-r4. A suggested fix is to pass 'notsc' to the kernel at boottime. I tried this, but can´t disable TSC when compiling the kernel. I tried to change CONFIG_X86_TSC=y to CONFIG_X86_TSC=n, but when starting the make-process, it is changed back to CONFIG_X86_TSC=y automaticly. What am I doing wrong? Second I have an overall impression that X is slower than before. It doesn´t feel as snappy as it used to with my old AMD Athlon XP 3200+. Theoretilcy it should run faster, right? Any inputs on the issues would be most welcome. Best regards, Andreas Karlsson Sweden pgpHUOqDzZT8u.pgp Description: PGP signature
[gentoo-user] CPU upgrade - make.conf
Hi all, I have a problem (oh, really?). I just upgraded my system from an AMD Athlon 3200+ to a AMD X2 3800+, with new motherboard. Whenever I try to compile anything from portage (emerge foobar) I get C Compiler cannot create executables. The kernel did compile though. CFLAGS=-march=k8 -O3 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer -ftracer -msse3 -mfpmath=sse3 I guess some CFLAGS could be eliminated, but who, and why? And how do I set up the right once for my new CPU?

[gentoo-user] Hal, d-bus, automount, premissions
Hello, I am getting quite frustrated over such a simple thing. Now, I have three USB storage devices: a USB flash disk, a mobile phone and a camera. I want those to automount with my users permissions. They now mounts under /media/usbdisk with root permissions. Where on earth do I find the configuration files? I´ve checked /etc/hal, /etc/dbus-1, /etc/udev, /etc/ivman, but no where is there a simple file where I can say ok, all /dev/sd* will be mounted automatilcy under /media/usbdisk* with gid=users, uid=whatever, umask=0077. It drives me nuts. I did search the forums.gentoo.org, but all I found was some unsolved threads. Anyone have any ideas? This is what my fstab lookslike with the USB flash disk automounted: /dev/sde1 /media/usbdisk ext3 user,exec,noauto,noatime,sync,managed 0 0 and ls -la /media/ gives: drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 1024 Jan 7 2005 usbdisk and thats my big problem. If I chmod/chown the folder it will not be saved till next time I mount the disk (that´s not suprising). Best regards, Andreas Karlsson pgpXdqlqJph6L.pgp Description: PGP signature

The program actually doing the mount is ivman. You seem to be running it as root (probably started in the default runlevel, check with rc-status). Try running ivman as a normal user, for example by adding a symlink to the ivman binary in ~/.kde/Autostart (not sure about the location) so that it is started when you log in (if you use kde), and copy your ivman configuration to ~/.ivman. As it will then run as your user, it will also mount disks with your permissions. Thanks. I tried it, but it didn´t work. ivman is running, but whenever I plug in a USB-device, it is not automounted. If I do a 'mount /media/usbdisk' as root it mounts. So this leads me to think that there are some major permission problems somewhere, but I don´t know where to look.

Mine tells me to move it to /usr/portage/distfiles. Sounds like
there's an environment variable that tells portage where to find
distfiles, and yours for some reason is set to /distfiles.
Cheers, Chris
Oooh, nice catch! I was looking at this and didn't see that anyway,
the environment variable you're talking about is in /etc/make.conf, and
looks like this:
PORTDIR=/usr/portage
DISTDIR=${PORTDIR}/distfiles
So the resulting DISTDIR variable expands to /usr/portage/distfiles
(since ${PORTDIR}=/usr/portage).
That's where I'd check to see if something went wrong (perhaps
/etc/make.conf was improperly edited?).
Holly
Yes. By some strange reason PORTDIR=/usr/portage was commented with a #. I don
´t remeber editing the file at that region (only changed some USE flags).
After uncommenting the line it worked perfect.
Thanks for the help!

[gentoo-user] Bad NFS performance
Hello all, I am getting quite sick of my self and NFS. Ive read many posts at forums.gentoo.org, Ive googled, Ive tested and tested and tested... No help could be found. The problem is not unique as it seems. I have an r/w speed against the NFS-server going from ~200kb/sec to 2mb/sec. I cant predict or find a cause for the strange speed changes. I have three computers set up: Aquarius is my main work station (AMD XP 3200+, 1 gig ram) Leo is my file server (AMD 1700+, 630 meg ram) Aries is for TV-out (AMD 1700+, 512 meg ram) All connected via a switched 100mbit network. All have 100mbit NICs. Netperf is telling me this: aquarius hermes # netperf -H leo TCP STREAM TEST to leo Recv SendSend Socket Socket Message Elapsed Size SizeSize Time Throughput bytes bytes bytessecs.10^6bits/sec 87380 16384 1638410.00 89.61 And when I do the same from/to all others the results are quite the same. So, no problem with the network. Next up NFS. I have now tried so many different combinations at my /etc/fstab that I dont know what is up and down: It currently looks like this: aquarius hermes # cat /etc/fstab | grep nfs leo:/home/files /home/hermes/philez nfs rw,users,auto,hard,intr,tcp,retrans=5,rsize=1024,wsize=1024 Ive tried rsize and wsize from 1024 up to 32768 (1 through 32 * 1024). Ive tried it in combination with sync and async. Here I find async working best. The file server (Leo) has a 120 gig HD with DMA enabled: leo linux # hdparm -t /dev/hdc /dev/hdc: Timing buffered disk reads: 88 MB in 3.02 seconds = 29.15 MB/sec So there should not be a I/O related problem either. I also run Samba on it, and when I am in Windows, filetransfers are as expected on 100mbit network (havent even mesured them as they work fine).

Does anyone know of some central movie playing library, perhaps, that could be doing this? It happens no matter what the format of the file is. I want to look into the matter further, but I've run out of ideas for where to look. Hi, I have the same problem. I am using a Nvidia Geforce 4 for TV-out on one box. According to the forums (http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-230451-highlight-blue+border+video+nvidia.html) you can issue this: /usr/bin/xvattr -a XV_COLORKEY -v 66048 Haven´t tested it my self as I am to lazy :).

[gentoo-user] Spamassassin - the memory black hole
Gooday all, I have a little problem with Spamassassin. It is eating all my memory. I am useing SpamAssassin version 3.0.2 running on Perl version 5.8.5. It has been running quite fine for some time now, till today. I noticed my harddrive started swapping extremly. From top: 1785 root 18 0 2933m 695m 348 D 2.0 78.6 0:33.80 spamd Yes, that is almost 3 gig swap used (it is maxed out). And I thought that one gig of RAM would be enough... From my messages log: May 2 22:15:20 aquarius spamd[1783]: spamd starting May 2 22:15:21 aquarius spamd[1785]: Use of uninitialized value in numeric gt () at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.5/i686-linux/DB_File.pm line 271. May 2 22:15:21 aquarius spamd[1785]: Deep recursion on subroutine DB_File::AUTOLOAD at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.5/i686-linux/DB_File.pm line 234. That is the only thing I can find that is a problem, though I don´t know what it means. /etc/conf.d/spamd shows: # Config file for /etc/init.d/spamd SPAMD_OPTS=-m 2 -c -H Does anyone have a clue?
