Re: [gentoo-user] diff command for images

 I need to find the difference between images (like the text-file diff

 difference.png. This should obviously produce some kind of blank image
 because A.png and A.png are the same file, but for some weird reason the
 produced difference.png has recognizable content! Is there a fix for
 that bug or any other image diff program that is sane?

The easiest way for doing this, is using GIMP.
- Use one layer for each image
- Use the 'Subtract' mode for displaying the second layer

Do a 'chown -R herbert:users ~/.ssh' because your executed command didn't 
change the permissions of the files inside of the directory, just the 
permissions of the directory itself.

Keep in mind that your directory and the files inside need the following 
permissions:

So just do a 'chmod -R u+rw ~/.ssh  chmod -R go-rwx ~/.ssh' and you should 
be fine.

 Hi!

 Is there any sensible reason why it is not possible to change cflags and

 I think gcc's default behavior is to use the last given setting if you
 specify for example -O2 and -O3 at the same time. Therefore simple
 appending should be safe, shouldn't it?

Hi,

the only way I know how to do this is using 
app-portage/portage-bashrc-ng
It's available through the gechiOverlay: http://gechi-overlay.sourceforge.net

An entry in package.cflags looks like this:
app-office/taskjuggler -ggdb -O2 -march=nocona -msse3 -pipe 
-fomit-frame-pointer -fvar-tracking
You have to include the whole line of flags, not just the ones you want to add

Go to:
- KDE Controlcenter

Uncheck the box [x] Enable the sound system

If artsd is still running, kill the process.

 I think it uses noatun to play the sounds.  I got it to work with what I
 currently have by telling it to use mplayer to play the sounds.  I would
 like to go back to the old way but without arts if someone can tell me
 how to get around this little boo boo.


I wouldn't use noatun. It's outdated, crappy, ugly and uses aRts ;-)
There are many other good players like Amarok. It uses xine or Helix as 
backend which is able using dmix devices.

 Seems like it wasn't changed with daylight savings change.
 Use hwclock --systohc to set hardware clock to the current system
 time.

If you don't use a dualboot system, just the this option in /etc/conf.d/clock:

# If you want to set the Hardware Clock to the current System Time
# during shutdown, then say yes here.
CLOCK_SYSTOHC=yes

 Thanks for your help!  This is fun.

Never got Shorewall traffic shaping to do anything.
shorewall show | grep mark | grep -v mark=0 | wc -l
is 0. It seems to fail when classifying packets. Neither port based 
classifying worked nor ipp2p based classifying.

If you have a working configuration, I'd like to see how you did it.

 How can I make the kernel bring up 'eth0' instead of 'eth1'.

Take a look at /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
If you just delete this file, your devicenames will be regenerated 
by /etc/udev/rules.d/75-persistent-net-generator.rules.

Re: [gentoo-user] How do I enable package specific FEATURES and CFLAGS?

 Hi,

 I always want to build evolution and evolution-data-server with:

 CFLAGS=-march=k8 -O1 -ggdb -pipe
 FEATURES=splitdebug

http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-472386-highlight-bashrcng.html
Using portage-bashrc-ng you can do this.

Pay attention on how to define CFLAGS in package.cflags: They're not added to 
existing ones like it's done by package.use, you have to specify the complete 
CFLAGS definition per package/category:

e.g.
kde-base/* -ggdb -O2 -march=nocona -msse3 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer 
-fvar-tracking

 Hi,

 I have a Fujitsu Amilo laptop, which has a nice audio subsystem,
 called
 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High
 Definition Audio Controller (rev 02)

 I have some problems with it:
 no master volume, skype cannot use its microphone, even I can adjust the
 volume of the mic and I can hear my voice when I speak with echo123, but
 skype records no sound.

 I would like to know, does anybody have this kind of audio system and
 how to solve this kind of issue?

I have an HP/Compaq nx9420 with an Intel HDA Chipset and Skype/Mic. is working 
fine here.
I remember some troubles concerning KMix switching the capture LED of the 
Capture-Channel to off after 1-5 seconds, but IIRC it was working finally 
without any problems.

Will take a look at my configuration in ~4-5hours, when I'm at home.

I've attached screenshots of KMix, so take a look, which switches are

Re: [gentoo-user] MSSQL command line Linux interface

 Hi all,

 I need to do some simple tasks in a MSSQL Server from a Linux that have no
 X installed. I know I can tunnel a SSH connection and run any MSSQL in my
 own box, but I think it's more practical to have a cli gui for MSSQL, but I
 couldn't find one googling for it, so I'm here asking you.

 For short: anyone know a Linux CLI GUI for MSSQL?

 Thanks in advance,
   Mauro

I think you're looking for tsql (interactive) bsqldb (non-interactive for 
scripts etc.) from the FreeTDS package (dev-db/freetds).

I've used it a while ago for writing a Nagios plugin which monitores some 
MSSQL tablespaces.
