Some further information. Evince has the same situation, print is greyed out. Sounds like the same issue I have, do you get log entries like: Request from localhost using invalid Host: field ::1 in /var/log/cups/error_log? If you find a solution to this, please let me know here, I can't seem to find a solution to the issue, and appearantly nobody has any ideas. - -- Morten 'T-Hawk' Holt In the joy of anticipation there's the anticipatory letdown of anticipating not anticipating anticipation of some future anticipation. -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v2.0.10 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAknwEeYACgkQ4U83l8z/woK5zQCgply7PWz2Ndg1ROEVKCGbqsFN +tQAnRlgk1CqQXVnxNCfBDpBbVme4W1V =ASIB -END PGP SIGNATURE-
[gentoo-user] CUPS error when printing from GTK+ print dialog
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 When I try to print from a program using the GTK+ print dialog, e.g. Firefox og Evince, i get the following line: Request from localhost using invalid Host: field ::1 in /var/log/cups/error_log each time I try to select a printer from the list. The dialog shows the list just fine, but except for the Print to File option the Print button is shaded. Printing works just fine from other programs that use CUPS, it's only the ones using the GTK+ printing dialog that fails. I have tried to re-emerge GTK+, libgnomecups and libgnomeprint, but nothing seems to change the behaviour. The problem seems to have startet after a recent upgrade of CUPS. I hope anybody has an idea on how I can solve this rather annoying issue. - -- Morten 'T-Hawk' Holt In the joy of anticipation there's the anticipatory letdown of anticipating not anticipating anticipation of some future anticipation. -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v2.0.10 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAknuQskACgkQ4U83l8z/woKjHgCgkbTKpk+SUbtDhVxO7LvFJGPd B18AoJWixpWyFPpGnZIActvB86A5yId0 =HCdc -END PGP SIGNATURE- smime.p7s Description: S/MIME Cryptographic Signature
[gentoo-user] Strange mouse movements
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hello people I just upgraded my kernel from 2.6.27-r7 to 2.6.27-r8, during this process I decided to start over on my config, setting it up from scratch instead of reusing the .config. I pretty much set the new kernel up like the old one, except for a few things. However, now my touchpad acts really strange from time to time, nothing really specific, it's ONLY the touchpad, so i can connect an USB mouse, but this is hardly an ideal solution. The strangeness is that the mouse jumps all over the screen when I try to move it, and clicks all over the place, making for really really anoying stuff. When the issue occurs the following shows up in /var/log/everything/current (equivelant to /var/log/messages): Feb 26 22:42:52 [kernel] [ 448.018056] psmouse.c: Mouse at isa0060/serio1/input0 lost synchronization, throwing 2 bytes away.

According to dmesg: [7.437975] input: ImPS/2 Logitech Wheel Mouse as /class/input/input4 I had that too. Really annoying. Annoying enough for me to blacklist the touchpad. Also, if I brushed it with my thumb my accident I would get about fifty '^[G' sequences dumped into Konsole. And all the problems just magically went away with 2.6.28 I guess I could try that, though 2.6.28 isn't marked as stable yet, this is hardly stable either ;) - -- Morten 'T-Hawk' Holt In the joy of anticipation there's the anticipatory letdown of anticipating not anticipating anticipation of some future anticipation. -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v2.0.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkmnlOsACgkQ4U83l8z/woKnjQCfdCpRH9tloNFxte+jX/gwDvye 0kcAni5XUyqJP3uEFcJj39DewNnuPjge =Alih -END PGP SIGNATURE- smime.p7s Description: S/MIME Cryptographic Signature
Re: [gentoo-user] looking for a ftp client script

There is no ftp client tool or file server setup on that AIX server, and I don't have enough power to install any binary tool. So, I think it is possible to use script on AIX, then it will get/put files from/to my gentoo's ftp server. Can anyone recommend such a script? Perl based script is prefered, Thanks, Weifeng I don't know of any script for this, but if you have shell access over SSH you can check out SSHFS over FUSE -- Morten 'T-Hawk' Holt In the joy of anticipation there's the anticipatory letdown of anticipating not anticipating anticipation of some future anticipation.
