I have been through this, Perl doesn't understand Far Eastern time zones like
this:

I resorted to hacking /etc/cron.daily/00-logwatch and adding:

export TZ=+0700

which fixes the problem. Adjust your offset accordingly... :)

And as a sidenote: I recommend having a look at XeTeX for heavy

[gentoo-user] Threading issues with compiling Qt apps

2006-11-02 Thread Alan McKinnon
Hi,

I want to double check some things here first before I report a bug, 
just in case the problem is in the fingers. arch = ~x86

Emerging amarok and kde-base/kopete both fail with this error in the 
configure step:

===
checking for Qt... configure: error: Qt (= Qt 3.3 and  4.0) (library 
qt-mt) not found. Please check your installation!
For more details about this problem, look at the end of config.log.
Make sure that you have compiled Qt with thread support!
===

The amarok build log contains this:

The kopete log contains much the same. It seems like I have faulty glibc 
build settings, and this will happen for all future Qt builds. I 
haven't had to remerge a Qt app for a while and the most recent 
relevant change I can think of was to glibc-2.5: remove nptlonly and 
add glibc-compat20. My full USE flags for related apps:

[gentoo-user] Kmail Reply to errors

2006-11-02 Thread Mick
Hi All,

First I'd like to apologise for some stray messages that I have inadvertently 
sent to this ML.  This appears to be caused by Kmail automatically inserting 
the gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org address in the Reply To field, on messages 
that have nothing to do with this list.  I am not sure what Kmail reads to 
deduce the Reply To address, but it seems that it's not parsing the correct 
header field.

The headers and body below are from a message sent to me from a different 
mailing list.  When I hit Reply (R) Kmail always inserts the gentoo-user ML 
address instead of the correct one.  Is this a bug I should report? Can you 
explain to me why it happens, or how I could fix it? (If Kmail has been 
corrupted, what should I remerge?)

Re: [gentoo-user] BIG reiserfs problem

2006-11-02 Thread Joshua Schmidlkofer

While this is true, it also may dramatically lower the mean time to
failure for your disk, due to increased ware and tear - consumer ATA
drives are designed to operate with the write cache on.

If you cannot afford to lose data due to poweroff corruption, then the
only viable solution is a RAID card that includes battery backup (e.g.
3Ware and Areca sell these).



Mark,

Thank you for clarifying.  My comments were obscure and poorly
worded.  You are correct.  If one requires supreme data-safety with an
ATA drive, one must do things that will ultimately be
counter-productive for the longevity of your disks.   Furthermore, (I
can fully attest) that they will be a significant hit on performance.

 If you need high safety, speed, and retention, then the 3ware +
Battery backup is a low-cast solution.  There are tons of higher cost
ones.   most of me servers run with battery-backed RAID cards.

 I also like to make scripts to remount the FSs with -o sync in the
case of power outage.  That way, just in case the UPS actually fails
early (which happens at times), I don't lose data.   I have had that
preference no matter what FS i use.

sincerely,
 Joshua

Re: [gentoo-user] Bluetooth compatibility

2006-11-02 Thread Grant

  I'm reading now that bluetooth uses the 2.4Ghz band which is just
  about tapped out around here.

 tapped? do you mean people tap into it?  It is fairly easy to tap
 into a bluetooth headset - the standard passwords for simple devices
 are usually , , and that sort of thing.

I think he means maxed out. And he apparently doesn't realise how much
bandwidth is available around 2.4Ghz: for example between 2.4 and 2.5
there's 5 times more bandwidth than the *entire* FM radio spectrum, or
enough space for about 20 TV stations


I did mean maxed out, and I said that because I seem to be having
interference problems currently.  One of the two systems that connects
to my 802.11g router stops the services that depend on net.ath0 after
awhile, and I can't connect reliably at all on some channels.  Also,
when I'm transferring a big file across the network, my (2.4Ghz)
wireless keyboard really struggles.  The keyboard and three systems
are all within an 8 foot radius of each other.


My wireless keyboard and wireless
  network use it, and since I'm in an apartment there's no telling
  how many other people are doing the same, along with their
  microwaves and phones.  Has anyone used a bluetooth headset in an
  environment with other devices utilizing the 2.4Ghz band?

 I use bluetooth in our office, with 2 802.11 b/g access points, and a
 handful of laptops / pda's and I haven't noticed any interference.  I
 doubt the bandwidth is throttled though...

Similar around here. With an effective range of about 2m, it will take a
lot more than a typical office or apartment building to cause
consistent interference over bluetooth


2 meters?  So you're pretty much at your computer.

That sounds more like of the bazillion possible frequencies to use, all

  Similar around here. With an effective range of about 2m, it will

 2 meters?  So you're pretty much at your computer.

Bluetooth's designed use case is a range of about 8 feet or so, so you 
can connect one of your personal devices (like the dongle in your ear) 
to another personal device (like the phone in your pocket). If you get 
more than that, you are in luck but don't rely on it.

[gentoo-user] Konqueror quicktime movies

2006-11-02 Thread Mick
Hi All,

I have for some years now survived without having mplayer on my machines 
shock/horror!  As a result I have not been able to play quicktime movies in 
Konqueror.  I have added the necessary link to gxine under File Associations 
but it won't launch it.  I see a noatun embedded front coming up instead 
which just stays there empty (no download takes place).

As a side issue, I have not yet been able to play HD clips from the Apple 
Trailers website using Xine or Gxine, but read in the forums and google that 
mplayer can play them alright.

Is there a way to make gxine work in Konqueror as a plugin?  Is mplayer really 
necessary to achieve either of the above?  What's your view and experience?

Yeah I would say that you're probably out of luck for right now. You might want to try the proprietary drivers with XGL, since the seperate XGL server along with the new mesa provides much of the stuff that's missing in current driver implementations. If that doesn't work, I'd say to just wait it out.

[gentoo-user] [uOT] Thunderbird, Mozilla and HELO

2006-11-02 Thread Rasmus Andersen
Hi list,

I have a slightly offtopic question that I hope I can get help with
here. I have a home server, running an MTA for my domain. As of the last
month or so, I have experienced a huge increase in spam and spam
bounces. To combat this, I have upped my MTA's pickyness quite a bit but
would like to up it more. Specifically, I would like to reject mail
where sender says HELO jaquet.dk and/or where the Received line looks
like [EMAIL PROTECTED] (my MTA's Received stamps are of the form
[EMAIL PROTECTED]). Spammers like to use these to 'fake' their way
through.

This brings me to the point, because it seems like mozilla and
thunderbird (my GF uses one, I use the other) grabs the domain
information they use in their SMTP exchanges from the sender email address.
So, when my GF sends from work via their MTAs to my home server as
[EMAIL PROTECTED], that mail will run afoul of this rule since the first
Received will look like

Received: from jaquet.dk ()
by mail.XXX.dk (Postfix) with ESMTP id 75FE532CD4C
etc

even though her laptop at the point of sending isnt connected to my
network.

So, the question. Do anyone know how to fix this? I found a bugzilla
entry for this, https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=68877,
with a final comment that this have been committed to tbird 0.6 and
mozilla 1.7 in 2005. I am running tbird 1.5.0.7 and still sees this. 
Any clues?

Thanks,
  Rasmus

Hmm, your log looks incomplete.  The beginning of it should be some lines like:

X Window System Version 7.1.1
Release Date: 12 May 2006
X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0, Release 7.1.1

Regardless, it looks like you are using the vesa driver for your
hardware.  This is pretty much the lowest common denominator driver,
and will be *very* slow.  I'm not sure if you need the s3 or via
driver for your hardware (perhaps someone else with similar hardware
can comment).

What did you set VIDEO_CARDS to in /etc/make.conf?  This should
probably be something like:

VIDEO_CARDS=vesa s3 via

If you have to change this setting, you need to remerge
x11-base/xorg-server.  I suggest to keep the vesa setting only to make
sure you have a recovery path if you make a mistake.

Once that is done, you should be able to change the Driver setting in
xorg.conf from vesa to s3 (or via).  The Driver setting to
change appears in the Device section.

 gpgkeys: HTTP fetch error 6: Couldn't resolve host 'subkeys.pgp.net'
 Hallo!
 How can I set on boot time my lan connection using a usb card?
 Some service need internet on boot (ntp-client, etc.) but I cannot find
 a script on /etc/init.d/ to support it.
 The connection uses wpa.

If I understand you correctly, you won't find the entry you're looking for.  
You need to create a link with the name of your usb card interface. 
ifconfig -a will show you what the new network card is recognised as and then 
you have to link it to /etc/init.d/net.lo.  For example, if ifconfig shows 
you a new interface called wlan0 then you need to run something like this:

# cd /etc/init.d
# ln -s net.lo net.wlan0

Then, set something like RC_NET_STRICT_CHECKING=no in your /etc/conf.d/rc 
and all the right things should happen when you boot up.

 A second question: some times the connection gets down but dhcpcd
 doesn't see it and the only solution is to kill wpa_supplicant and
 dhcpcd and restart them.
 How can I prevent this problem, or connect automatic again?

Sorry, not adequately clued up on this, to offer any reliable advice.  I know 
that the wpa_supplicant requires the iface to stay up, something which may 
not happen if dhcpcd goes down and takes the iface with it.  You may want to 
try adding an option like dhcpcd_wlan0=-o in your /etc/conf.d/net to see if 
it makes any difference.  Someone more knowledgeable in network matters ought 
to advise here.

I have my make.conf settins as such:

Subsection Display

EndSubsection

I'm not sure 'sis' is a legitimate option?
While googling I came across a document that suggested adding
'vesa' to any VIDEO_CARD setting if doubt exist. Is this the
correct setting for this video card? Where can I read up on
the various cards, xorg-x11 setting options for various video
cards and the corresponding settings in make.conf and else where?

I've some docs, such as the gentoo docs and xorg modular migration,
but these docs seem trite or a little too skinny on details and
lack a robust discussion of the options and other possible options.

It seems to work, but, I'm not sure it's optimized for the best
possbible use of this sis/vesa video chip?


thoughts and comments are most welcome.

[gentoo-user] Mini Gentoo in VMWare

2006-11-02 Thread Trenton Adams

Hi Guys,

Has anyone here played with minimalizing everything for use in vmware?

Basically what I want to do is create a series of VERY tiny VMs that
are all independent of each other, which provide one service.  For
instance, I might put apache on one VM, and tomcat on another, and so
on.  Obviously, I would want their memory usage to be absolutely
minimized, seeing that I would like to run them all on one computer.
I would probably provide them 64M-128M of RAM each, for their specific
service.  Perhaps a little more if really required.

Is there really anything that I should worry about?  Perhaps I should
just DO IT?
