[gentoo-user] Gentoo-Sources/Vanilla-Sources/Video 4 Linux
Hi, i have spent the weekend trying to get my new Hauppage USB tv stick to work under linux. I have been constantly perplexed by references to compilable kernel modules I couldn't see! I assumed it was because they referred to old modules or something. But having downloaded and booted into Knoppix and run make menuconfig on that i have confirmed that kernel seems to have 10's of TV card chipset drivers availible to compile whereas gentoo-sources/vanilla-sources emerged on my machine have maybe 2 or 3. Can someone offer me some assistance as to why this might be? Thank you (This is my first mailing list post - please be gentle!) --- N: Jon Hardcastle E: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 'The writing is on the wall...' ---

[gentoo-user] 2008.0 Installation Question...
I took the dive on my laptop this weekend and installed Gentoo 2008.0. I started Friday night and used the stage3 and latest-portage. The initial install when okay, until I started emerging applications - specifically X windows/KDE/etc; and that is the point I am still working on. The problem seems to be that emerge/portage is not detecting dependencies correctly, or rather - a dependency says it is installed but the ebuilds for other packages that depend on it do not find the files it supposedly installed. For example, I have had to manually emerge nearly all the X protocol (e.g. xproto, xkbproto, etc.) packages. I've installed several other gentoo systems, but not with 2008.0 directly like this - my last two were installed under 2007.0 and upgraded to 2008.0 profiles. The only bug reports I come across seem to indicate broken e-builds, but that does seem to be the case as emerge --search program indicates it is installed when in fact it might not be which leads me to believe that the local portage database (?) is somehow broken or something... Has anyone else seen this kind of behavior? Is there anything I can to do get fixed? -- Preferably without re-installing from scratch, though I can if need be since I haven't gotten that far despite 48 hours of time put into it already. Nearly every time I run emerge world -vuDN it will go for a while and then break when the contents of a package that was supposedly installed are not found by a package depending on it. Any how...any tips would be greatly appreciated! Ben

And you don't even need to worry about which driver you need - autoloading will do that for you ;)

Re: [gentoo-user] 2008.0 Installation Question...
Ran the 'regenworld' and 'revdep-rebuild' and it seems to be working. 6 packages were added to world as a result. It's currently still in the revdep-rebuild phase, and I think it should complete without problem; I'll continue on as suggested later this evening if it does. (Hopefully!) I'll post more if I run into other issues, but I think we likely solved it. If it's finished with revdep-rebuild when I get back home this evening, then it should be completely solved since before I couldn't get through such a build without something breaking. Thanks all!

Re: [gentoo-user] /etc/init.d/apache2 fails, but apache will run
Have you done an upgrade/update of apache lately? Whenever apache gets updated here, two files are recreated each time. If you look in /etc/apache2, it should look like this: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 6311 Sep 2 03:23 httpd.conf -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 12958 Sep 8 16:52 magic drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Sep 8 22:50 modules.d drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Sep 8 16:53 ssl drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Sep 16 07:59 vhosts.d Reading through httpd.conf, you should find the lines: # Virtual-host support # # Gentoo has made using virtual-hosts easy. In /etc/apache2/vhosts.d/ we # include a default vhost (enabled by adding -D DEFAULT_VHOST to # APACHE2_OPTS in /etc/conf.d/apache2). Include /etc/apache2/vhosts.d/*.conf And looking through /etc/apache2/vhosts.d/, you should find all your own virtual servers, I name mine as per the port they use: -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 565 Sep 1 07:55 80.conf -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 368 Sep 16 07:57 8080.conf -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2.8K Sep 8 16:52 default_vhost.include I don't have the two files that are recreated each time here, but they contain a configuration similar to the one in my 80.conf. Thus, it load my 80.conf, and then tries to load its own default_80.conf (or something like that) and conflicts since the port 80 is already in use (by another vhost). 2 ways to solve this: either use those default file names for your own vhost configuration so portage will ask you to update /etc files interactively, or delete those 2 files each and every time you update apache. I have never looked into that but maybe by removing the option -D DEFAULT_VHOST in you /etc/conf.d/apache2 might do the trick also.

Re: [gentoo-user] Re: Question about difference between emerge --update world and emerge vigra
James schrieb am 25.09.2008 20:32:
Surely many folks would benefit from a formal, systematic approach
to cleaning the world file? I know every now and then, when a gentoo
workstation gives me fits, I just emerge and unemerge things until
it's happy (while multitasking too much). Often this leads to
a polluted world file... because I do not follow closely to
the process details (distracted) during the repair-episode.
Something in addition to this topic.
I asked on IRC (#gentoo-portage) if it is possible to show the reverse
dependencies of a package with portage. Zac Medico, one of the main
portage developers told me that it is possible with depclean.
emerge -pv --depclean atom
So I thought of writing a little script which calls this command for
every entry in the world file. As I have only limited programming skills
I wrote something quick in perl. It should be no problem to do it with a
shell script or something else too. It simply checks the output of
depclean for strings which only occur when the package has or has no
reverse dependencies. Then it prints the package to be checked and if it
is needed in world or not. It actually does not remove anything, so it
is up to you if you want to leave a package in world or not for whatever
reason you have.
The script could probably be improved in a few ways and it is slow as
depclean takes some time. It works for current stable portage. I don't
know if it will work for portage-2.2 as the output of depclean has
changed as far as I know.
Don't rely on this script to much. Because it works for me must not mean
it does for you. I have tested some cases and I worked every time until
now. So verify the output of a manual emerge -pv --depclean atom on
the unneeded entry first to be sure it is really not needed.

Daniel

Andrew You could limit the bandwidth usage (see man wget and man make.conf, iirc), and run emerge --sync once a week, and emerge -u --fetchonly to fetch packages at night when the net isn't going to be in use as often (or during the day durning classes or work), then install at your own leisure. Also, you could just run glsa-check to update security problems. if you want another distro, and they are new to Linux, I would probably suggest Debian or one of its knock-offs (besides Ubuntu) to get them started, and see if they like it. Hope this helps some. -- I'm not anti-social, I'm just not user friendly

[gentoo-user] Mediatomb media server - users permissions for /media/videoX
Hi there, I'm in the process of ripping my DVD collection to mp4 and have just installed net-misc/mediatomb. I am EXTREMELY impressed with this service, which has very quickly demonstrated a marvellous ability to stream video to my PS3. On my server I have two largish hard-drives which are used for miscellaneous storage - backups, drivers service packs for my work, customer backups and all these video files which will soon be rapidly increasing in quantity. Because of the miscellaneous nature of this data, I have mounted these two disks at /mnt/space and /mnt/morespace Following a discussion a while back I will probably move them to /media/video[123] or /media/ spaceX when I get around to reorganising. Permissions on these volumes are such that any user on the system (me, hypothetically trusted friends or family in the future) should have full access to all the miscellaneous junk on them. I need to play back videos and delete the old versions when I decide a film needs to be ripped in higher quality. I'm a little unclear as to how these permissions have been applied - shouldn't it be based either on the permissions of the mount-point directory, or added as an -o users,umask=000 in /etc/fstab ? $ grep space /etc/fstab LABEL=space /mnt/space xfs noatime 0 3 LABEL=MoreSpace /mnt/morespace xfs noatime 0 3 $ sudo umount /mnt/morespace/ $ ls -lh /mnt/ total 0 drwxrwx--- 2 root cdrom 72 May 28 2007 dvdrom drwxrwx--- 2 root users 48 Sep 21 23:24 foo drwxrwxrwx 2 root root 48 May 19 2007 morespace drwxrwx--- 8 root users 116 Sep 11 11:53 space $ sudo mount -a $ ls -lh /mnt/ total 4.0K drwxrwx--- 2 root cdrom 72 May 28 2007 dvdrom drwxrwx--- 2 root users 48 Sep 21 23:24 foo drwxrwx--- 5 root users 4.0K Sep 15 20:46 morespace drwxrwx--- 8 root users 116 Sep 11 11:53 space $ Anyway, the problem that I encountered was that Mediatomb was unable to read these drives because Gentoo init.d script (very sensibly, IMO) runs the server as its own user, which clearly did not have permission to read these disks. I like this idea, because I tend to trust the users on my system (this may be foolish!) yet fear a hijacked daemon maliciously deleting my collection of Carry On films. You can see here how I've worked around the problem for the moment: $ grep -ie user -ie group /etc/conf.d/mediatomb # Run MediaTomb as this user. MEDIATOMB_USER=mediatomb # Run MediaTomb as this group. #MEDIATOMB_GROUP=mediatomb MEDIATOMB_GROUP=users $ However I'm posting to solicit suggestions on the best permissions practices for this purpose. mediatomb shouldn't need write access to these files or folders at all - there's no option on the UPnP client, for instance, to delete files from the server. Should I make the drives owned by users and in the mediatomb group, with read-only access for the latter? Any other suggestions? Stroller.
[gentoo-user] Patch file for cdrtools to allow --duplicates-once
Is there a patch file to patch mkisofs to use the --duplicates-once option during generation of iso9960/UDF images? The problem is that the one that exists right now, the patch (against the official sources) cannot be found because the original site (bootcd.ru) is permanently down. Or do I need to make a table of SHA-1s to weed out the identical files? -- Andrey Vul
