Re: [gentoo-user] xf86-video-intel, compiz, mplayer -fs file.avi freeze

 I cannot solve your problem because I know little of X and nothing
 about compiz (which I consider futile), but for this kind of problem,
 you may want to know about the magic SysRq key. It allows you to at
 least reboot your system cleanly when the system seems locked, and
 some times can even help you kill the bad program an resume work.

I don't fully understand how is that possible that my rules count packet
twice, could you explain it more briefly?

I specified -i eth0 in PREROUTING and -o eth0 in POSTROUTING. Isn't this
correct way to count packets only once? ...and I'm getting values only from
chain 'stat', which is called only from PREROUTING and POSTROUTING with

So in my opinion a packet traveling through the router to my network passes
only once through 'stats' as it is accepted only in PREROUTING with -i eth0,
and not in POSTROUTING with -o eth0, as it goes out from eth1. Am I correct?

Perhaps this packet travel diagram will help:

http://www.linuxnetmag.com/share/issue9/iptables3.jpg



To be totally sure - when packet arrives from internet to eth0 it passes
through PREROUTING as packet that comes from eth0, then it travels across
FORWARD as packet that comes from eth0 toward eth1, and finally it goes to
POSTROUTING as packet that wants to come out through eth1? And if I have
rules:

-t mangle -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -j stats
-t mangle -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j stats
(there are no other rules that jumps to stats, and these are only rules in
mangle table)

how many times the packet would pass through 'stats'?


From witch places on this diagram iptraf takes values?


[gentoo-user] iptraf vs iptables (mangle access)

2007-03-01 Thread CapSel

I'm trying to count bandwidth and number of packets on my router with rules
like:

iptables -t mangle -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -j stats
iptables -t mangle -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j stats

iptables -t mangle -A stats -p tcp -s $ip -j ACCEPT
iptables -t mangle -A stats -p udp -s $ip -j ACCEPT
iptables -t mangle -A stats -p icmp -s $ip -j ACCEPT

iptables -t mangle -A stats -p tcp -d $ip -j ACCEPT
iptables -t mangle -A stats -p udp -d $ip -j ACCEPT
iptables -t mangle -A stats -p icmp -d $ip -j ACCEPT

Chain stats has policy set to ACCEPT.

My script reads these values every minute and sets them to zero.
The problem is that numbers of packets are more than twice greater than
iptraf shows, but bandwidth seems to be correct. Of course I divide those
numbers by 60 to get value per second.

Why this difference is so big, what could I done wrong?

[gentoo-user] Makefile+wine problem

2006-12-22 Thread CapSel

I'm getting this kind of error with wine 0.9.25 and 0.9.27. On .25 it
is on same directory, and on .27 on different. My friend _compiled_
wine with same USE flags, but he has pre 4.1 gcc.
I can't find on google similar bug with wine, but there were same
errors in other projects but soloved by re-uncompressing.
My error can't be solved by uncompresing one more time, by re-wget'ing
file. My file system is XFS but full fsck shows that it is clean, on
another computer (with rsynced system) on ext3 I get same errors.

Can sombody help me??

[gentoo-user] Oops on heavy load

2006-08-28 Thread CapSel

My server crashed twice with same Oops info. It runs apache,mysql,nfs
(client only), it has more than 2GB swap partition (does not use it
very much), 2GB ram, disk is Raptor on SATA...
I have two clones of this machine (computers with same parts, system
is copied by RSYNC) and only one of them has these Oopses. I made
copies of gentoo like this:

  1 - 2 - 3

...and that one which crashed is 2, so if there was any error
durring rsync from 1-2 it should be repeted on 3, but 3 and 1
works all the time without any crashes.

When it crushes some process' just stops - for example ps ax stopped
in the middle of list, ctrl+c did not helped, w (/bin/w) did not
showed anything, but dmesg worked and I could login thourgh ssh to try
another command.

The server must work all the time...

Does anybody have an idea what coused this Oops??

[gentoo-user] Scrolling page with floating flash animation in firefox 1.5.0.3

2006-06-06 Thread CapSel

I've found that I can scroll down page with floating flash animation
beyond page's end.
For example on http://serwisy.gazeta.pl/nauka/0,0.html
If a yellow one starts moving then scroll down :)

Is it a bug? Can this be dangerous for firefox?

When you start seeing 'end_request: I/O error', it's always (in my

Double check physical connections, make sure no wires are loose; if
S.M.A.R.T. is available, check its status - but I highly doubt a

More exactly:

Smartmontools should work correctly with SATA drives under both
Linux 2.4 and 2.6 kernels, if you use the standard IDE drivers
in drivers/ide. If you use the new libata drivers, it won't work
correctly because libata doesn't yet support the needed
ATA-passthrough ioctl() calls. (smartmontools.sourceforge.net)

How to set up a SATA disk to be seen as IDE disk to the kernel?
Can this be done by adding something to kernel command line in grub? I

Use the '-d ata' argument with SATA disks and it will work fine.

[gentoo-user] SATA raptor failure - why?

2006-05-24 Thread CapSel

Hi all,
I have sata disk sda connected to ICH7 (ata_piix). Everything worked
fine until I saw these error messages:
May 24 23:31:43 foo ata1: command 0x35 timeout, stat 0xd1 host_stat 0x21
May 24 23:31:43 foo ata1: translated ATA stat/err 0xd1/00 to SCSI

...and it began to show in dmesg every about 5 seconds and FS on it
stopped responding.
Is this disk error, controler error?

Every time I reboot it I get these messages:

Some time ago I had a stationary computer connected to this monitor

 Ahhh...sounds like X is detecting your display size and adjusting your

 Try setting a fixed DisplaySize in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.  You should

[gentoo-user] firefox and svg

2006-04-04 Thread CapSel
I wanted to make some animations not using flash so I founded svg, but
firefox 1.0.7 does not support it. I emerged adobesvg and:
1. firefox 1.0.7 (-bin) after changeing from page with svg to other
crashes all open windows. After right-click I can see menu of
adobesvg; without adobesvg it prompts for file download.
2. firefox 1.5.0.1 (~x86)(-bin) does not show animations - only first
phase, before animations. After right-click I can see only firefox
menu. On about:plugins it shows that svg handled by adobesvg; after
deinstalling adobesvg about:plugins there is no diffrence - image is
not animated and the menu is the same (firefox's).
3. mozilla (-bin) (suite) shows animations (with adobesvg) and does not crash...
4. Opera shows all animations without adobesvg :)

...and I wanted to use firefox...

Can someone help me?

 AFAIR Firefox 1.5 supports SVG, but only a subset of the complete
 specification. I thinks that's why animations do not appear.

 I also created some simple static SVGs, but Firefoy does not display
 hatches in objects nor does it render text objects properly. So I
 converted the text to paths and now it gets displayed correctly, but it
 would be great if text could stay as text.

 So if you want to display SVG animations in current browsers, I guess
 you're too early.

 Well, that's my point, sort of... what exactly do you copy, and has that

 previously, you can see that even SUSE creates a system.map in the /boot
 folder, and that's a precompiled kernel (so it's not like it's copying
 manually or via make install). So I kinda suspect that it's a needed
 file across all distros, whatever it may be called and, looking in
 /usr/src/linux, it is a separate file from the bzImage file, which is
 the actual compiled kernel. The fact that the make install command also
 finds it necessary to copy this file from /usr/src/linux to /boot is not
 to be sneezed at either, imo.

[gentoo-user] grub,sata,savedefault and error 27

2005-12-27 Thread capsel
Hi group
I tryed to make config file for grub to migrate from centos to gentoo,
and even once it booted with saved I think. Some how it booted fith
entry in config file...
   centos doesn't have grub-set-default so I ran grub, loaded
configfile and gave command savedefault 4... I don't remember what
else I have done but grub booted gentoo :D
   after I added:

default saved
fallback 0

   and to new, the only 'title'

title gentoo
  root (hd0,0)
  kernel /bzImage root=/dev/sdb2
  savedefault fallback

and it doesn't boot. I haven't got remote console so technicans had to
do something. They booted kernel from grub prompt. Then I ran grub
from bash

configfile (hd0,0)/grub/grub.conf

and I tryed to boot my kernel. GRUB showed

savedefault fallback

Error 27: Unrecognized command

...or something like that :)

 Is it related to SATA or is it a bug in GRUB?
Now after deleting all entrys related to save it does not boot either.

SATA chipset is ICH7

what can I do?
Will LILO handle SATA disk?

 I don't understand...are you saying that after the system booted, you
 logged in, ran the grub program, and tried to boot your system??  If
 so, that won't work, because there is a difference between the
 configuration/setup program grub, and the bootloader that it
 installs.  The booloader that it installs understands the
 menu.lst/grub.conf commands, the program does not.

I'm using this /sbin/grub program as a tester of my config file... and
it does not recognize savedefault command but auto complete this
command. /sbin/grub does not boot anything but exits (I would have
much more problems if it could load another kernel and reboot).


   Is it related to SATA or is it a bug in GRUB?
  Now after deleting all entrys related to save it does not boot either.

 Not related to SATA.  All bootloaders work through the BIOS
 interfaces, so any drives that the BIOS can see can be accessed by the
 bootloader.

  Will LILO handle SATA disk?

 Yes. See previous answer.

I've found that not having symbolic link on /boot named boot and
pointing to . (dot) can cause not reading of my config file by grub -
that's my mistake, centos does not have it and it boots.
But I still don't know if the behaviour of /sbin/grub with savedefault
is normal. It worked with 0.95 GRUB on centos (or GRUB ignored this
command).

 that last line does nothing in the configuration file. fall back is meant to
 be used as a top level config command with a entry number coresponding to
 your menu entry of choice. eg fallback 2 when your second entry is for
 memcheck or windows, etc. savedefault is meant to be used at the grub command
 line, not in the config file. enter grub and type 'help savedefault' for more

fallback should be on top and it is, savedefault fallback can be in

I think it should be EOT for now... I've checked if savedefault works

 Here is a little trick you can use on google when looking for
 converters..  Put the file extension of the file you want to convert in
 front of the number 2.  Like this:  mdb2,  and if you know the file
 extension of the target, add that AFTER the 2.  Like this:  mdb2mysql or
 mdb2sql.   This is not always going to work, but try it anyways and look
 at the 1st result in google.  These will both bring up hits for what you
 are lookin for, but try mdb2mysql first as it's more descriptive. Most
 GPL'd converters will use this type of format (rpm2tgz comes to mine

 their apps in that same naming convention.

[gentoo-user] readcd -clone and iso9660 ?

I made a copy of 6 cdroms with

These two are a copy of a protected game CD and others are images of

I can mount solaris' CDs with

 Have you tried creating the images directly, instead of using readcd

 cat /dev/cdrom image.iso

Yes, it works, cp /dev/cdrom image.iso too. But some CDs have errors
(scratches) that cp/cat can't handle.
Why readcd makes once iso and once not iso compatible image files?

I hope it is not hardware failure...
I'm checking dmesg on every reboot since failure of one of my server :)

I've found that I changed configuration of my kernel - cdrom driver is
loaded as module and must be loaded on boot (before hotplug/coldplug
?) for hdc to be created. Somehow parport_pc is loaded automaticly.

What can I do to force hotplug/coldplug to load ide-cd and so to force
udev to create hdc? I added ide-cd to
/etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6.

 On a properly operating system, /dev/lp0 will be created if the printer is

 Not seeing the CDrom/DVD drive every boot indicates some faulty hardware -

 It's sounding like hardware to me.  It would benefit you to check dmesg on

2005-09-18 Thread capsel
2005/9/18, Holly Bostick [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
 Well, that should work, but the 'better' way is simply to recompile the
 kernel so that ide-cd is statically compiled (* or Y, rather than M),
 and then it would be automatically loaded by the kernel when the device
 is discovered (which would also tell you if you have a hardware issue,
 because the device wasn't discovered during the normal hardware scan the
 kernel makes at boot).

Cd is always detected at boot - when scanning ide's - no matter if I
compile ide-cd as module or compile it in. It is not about hardware :)
 
 What runlevel is hotplug set to run in (rc-update show)? If boot, then
 the problem with having the module in /etc/modules.autoload.d is that
 the service (hotplug) is running before the module load, whereas if
 hotplug is set to run at 'default', it runs *after* the modules in
 /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6 are loaded, or at least that is my
 experience.
 
coldplug is in boot runlevel but is started after loading modules and
hotplug is dead and buried and... does not do much.

 But since you aren't likely to be hotplugging your CD device anyway
 (unless this is a laptop with an external drive), it just makes more
 sense to compile the driver (Device Drivers= ATA/ATAPI/MFM/RLL
 support= Include IDE/ATAPI CDROM support) statically (which I thought
 was the default kernel config setting anyway) and just let coldplug
 handle it.
 
 HTH,
 Holly

CD-rom is built into laptop...
I wanted to load my system faster than with everything compiled into core. :)
Loading files from hard disk after linux boot is faster than before (grub/lilo).
Is there a way to set this to load magicaly at system boot? I thought
that coldplug/holdplug should take care of this.

Thanks for help :D

 Go to the udev migration thing in the gentoo wiki.  There is a command that

I noticed it yesterday when I wanted to watch film on dvd one more

 Hi,
 i put RC_DEVICE_TARBALL=no(permanently) a long time ago, had no problems.
 Now checked and currently it's set to yes but this is due to the fact
 i had do a complete reinstall a week ago (dying hard on it's way).
 IIRC when it is set to no udev creates all necessary nodes, you only
 have to put your own rules to support new/exotic hardware.
 Now will cp the tarball somewhere for backup and change to 'no'.

 Turn off the tarball option, or create /dev/hdc and recreate your tarball.
 
 What's happening is upon startup the tarball is used to create the initial
 /dev contents.  I'm willing to bet the tarball does not have the /dev/hdc
 link, therefore it is not being created.
 
 I know that when I did the udev migration it had some steps to build the
 tarball, but as I remember I too was missing the /dev/hd{c,d} links.  By
 setting tarball to no, udev manually recreates the /dev directory based
 upon

[gentoo-user] Re: HELP! grub stops, only hard reset helps

2005-09-10 Thread capsel
I solved this problem. Guilty was gcc-2.3.5.* (don't remember
version). Last night I upgraded all system and I removed hardened
flag.
Before this I tryed to compile older versions of grub but configure
script failed with error saying something about 0200 address and
compiler.
Now everything works fine, thanks for help :)

Should I post a bug with solved status or not?

 Excuse me, but could you describe what EXACTLY you can see on screen
 before GRUB hangs?

Re: [gentoo-user] HELP! grub stops, only hard reset helps

 Ok, now we're talking. When you enter Grub this way it doesn't care
 about an existing configuration - so IMHO no problem there. Here's what
 I would do:
 
 1. Check if top shows reasonable results - if not step 3
 2. Re-emerge grub - if that doesn't help - step 3
 3. memtest86 for a day
 

I don't know what are not reasonable results in top - haven't ever
seen such results. IMHO it shows correct values about memory,
processes, buffers and cpu load.

I tryed grub 0.96, 0.97 with same results, reemerging them didn't
helped. If you use grub what CFLAGS do you have? I've got -march=i586
-mcpu=pentium3 -O -pipe.

If it is memory failure what other effects would I see on my system?
My friend had broken RAM and linux was very unstable, he had random
compilation errors and other strange effects.

Is it possible that grub wants to have RAM in first memory slot and
I have it in second one?

I'll leave memtest for a night.

 Re-emerge and re-install Grub.  If Grub hangs when you try to install
 it, which I assume is what is happening, then you can try starting as: #
 grub --no-floppy, to see if it works.  Grub hanging basically implies
 that there's a hardware hick up of some sort.
 
 If Lilo works fine regardless and re-emerging/re-installing Grub does
 not resolve the problem, could you please show us your Lilo config file
 to see if we can draw some parallels between the two boot loaders.

grub hangs while booting and there are no errors when I install it on
mbr (BIOS supports only mbr booting).

[gentoo-user] HELP! grub stops, only hard reset helps

2005-09-08 Thread capsel
It is second time i'm posting about this problem on this group, maybe
I did it wrong last time...

so the problem is GRUB
it doesn't matter what partitions I have or how do I install it
(always successfull)
it still shows no memory at all (run grub from bash, delete grub,
put zeros where amount of memory is, and you will see same text I do),
no menu or command prompt.

I've read man grub and info grub and I'm sure that it is not problem
of devices (hdX,Y) or menu file (menu.lst, grub.conf).

HELP PLEASE!

current:
hda1 swap
hda2 reiserfs /
---previous1---
hda1 ext2 /boot
hda2 reiserfs /
hda3 swap
---previous2---
hda1 swap
hda2 ext2 /boot
hda3 reiserfs /

swap is 258MB, /boot is about 24MB, / is rest of disk which is 10GB
Should I post output of echo -ne p\nq\n | fdisk /dev/hda?

device map:
(fd0)   /dev/fd0
(hd0)   /dev/hda

grub.conf:
---
#
# Sample boot menu configuration file
#
#root (hd0,1)

# Boot automatically after 30 secs.
timeout 30

# By default, boot the first entry.
default 0

# Fallback to the second entry.
#fallback 1

# For booting GNU/Linux
title  Gentoo
root (hd0,1)
kernel /boot/bzImage root=/dev/hda2
#initrd /initrd.img

It doesn't matter which partition layout it is or grub.conf exist it
still doesn't work.

When you start grub from command line as root it shows how much memory
it detected. In my case it shows only zeros like this:

GNU GRUB  version 0.96  (0K lower / 0K upper memory)

 [ Minimal BASH-like line editing is supported.  For the first word, TAB
   lists possible command completions.  Anywhere else TAB lists the possible
   completions of a device/filename. ]

-
After this it halts and only reset works. I can't type anything or
reset by ALT+CTRL+DEL.

- Lilo works just fine so I can tar my filesystem to disk on USB and
change partition scheme.
- No option on BIOS about memory.
- Laptop (hp pavilion n3390)

And again - what am I doing wrong?

[gentoo-user] grub freezing

2005-08-26 Thread capsel
I have /boot with ext2 on hda1
/ with reiserfs hda2
swap on hda3

some time ago grub worked fine (maybe with different configuration of devices)
through last year I was using lilo (everywhere, on my servers too)

today I tryed to install grub on mbr:
root (hd0,0)
setup (hd0)
quit

it installed itself correctly but it freezes after displaying that
text about memory and bash-like...
no command prompt, alt+ctrl+del doesn't work, and no memory detected 0
on left side of / and on right

same thing after
grub-install /dev/hda

does anybody know how to solve it?
