Re: [gentoo-user] Display Power Management Question
Well make sure acpi is turned on in your BIOS.If you also have apm set in the kernel config, it may be taking conrol first I've got a new thinkpad a31 ... it supports acpi, but i didn't find anywhere in the bios to specify that type of standard or anything. as for apm, i have a module compiled, just in case i *do* need some power management. And you need to emerge acpid to get the kernel patch. well, acpid just provides the userspace tool i believe. i downloaded a patch from acpi.sf.net and patched a vanilla-sources tree myself (because the acpi-sources kernel was doing the same thing this one was about to do). i emerged and compiled vanilla-sources with 'acpi' in my $USE and and all power-management kernel options selected appropriately.

Re: [gentoo-user] Constant hangings
It is either a hardware failure, or a latest gcc clash - and I lean towards the latter. The descriptions of the crashes/hangs lead me to suspect the power supply. Athlons (and now P4s) coupled with Nvidia cards draw huge instaneous currents off the 3.3 V line. The typical power supply can't keep the voltage in spec under such a load, or get very noisy when loaded. For the typical Athlon, the +3.3V and +5V should be able to provide a combined 150 W. That gives around 30A on the +5V and 14A on the +3.3V. The label on the power supply should state what the current each voltage provides and what the combined power rating is. Recommended supplies would be ones like - Antec TruePower350 PC Power Cooling Silencer 275 ATX/ATX12V PC Power Cooling TurboCool 350 ATX FWIW - Athlon 1.2 GHz MP, 512 MB memory, gcc 3.2.1-r6, -mcpu=athlon-xp, -O3, kernel 2.4.19-xfs-r2, Pc Power Cooling Silencer 400.

[gentoo-user] Memory Leak related to Gnome 2.2
I updated yesterday and now anything related to gnome starts a memory leak that i can't seem to stop. I usually use enlightenment and when I try to open nautilus or evolution this memory leak occurs. It'll keep sucking memory until the computer crashes. The program I attempted to run never starts correctly. (For evolution it'll show the splash screen but none of the components start up, in nautilus it'll begin flashing the main screen and the wm will begin to beserk) Games and other simpler gnome programs also start the leak. Yesterday, right after updating, I looked at gnome and everything worked fine, now I can't even get into gnome anymore but this could be because I've done some hard resets when it crashed and further messed up whatever gnome component is causing the problem. Another strange thing is that many of the scripts in the beginning have problems with syntax errors involing '}'. I haven't messed with any of these scripts so I don't see why they would have problems. Is there a way to regenerate the init.d scripts without re-emerging the related packages??

[gentoo-user] KDE gone
Well, it looks that I'm without KDE. kdm doesn't start, and if I try to start a KDE session via gdm I receive an error message complaining about a missing libqt... Since emerge search libqt answers nothing, I'm at a loss. This happened after emerging kdelibs (if I'm not mistaken) in an attempt to get at least half-decent fonts (which I don't have, not even close).

My horror story arose from playing with mc as root. I had to be root to mount some loopback device, then wanted to play with the contents so just went into midnight commander. I managed to untar a file by mistake and it had a whole lot of /etc entries that overwrote the system files. Like /etc/passwd, /etc/group, and a few others. Luckily I had backed them up! I paniced for a while, luckily I didn't log out, cos I wouldn't have known how to get back in - the new /etc/passwd basically had no accounts in it!

[gentoo-user] Konqueror question
Hi, I was loading [a rather large] web page last night with konqueror, and noticed that my cpu usage was pretty intense. running top(1) i found that kdeinit was the culprit; kdeinit was using 99% of my P4's power to load this webpage, and it took about two minutes to finish. The page, rather cool actually, was: http://www.ajvar.org/~calin/penguin.html Now, i don't understand how i can prevent something like this from crippling my processor when konqueror has some work to do. i suspect that if i run konqueror at priority +18 or something, then it will have less-than-desirable responiveness the whole rest of the time. any suggestions, comments, or ideas are greatly appreciated, thank you. lion-O -- ''Wisdom is the companion of patience'' ,-~~-.___. / | ' \ ( ) 0 \_/-, ,' // / \-'~;/~~~(O) / __/~| / | =( _| (_| Brett Ryan Campbell Systems Administrator, CAD Research Center Cal Poly State University, San Luis Obispo, CA 93407 http://www.cadrc.calpoly.edu/frameset_content/content_about_us.html -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

[gentoo-user] baselayout and xfree up/downgradegrade
After syncing emerge -up world gives a slew of upgrades (mostly gnome related). I am using baselayout-1.8.6.2 and emerge wants to downgrade to 1.8.5.8. I read that 6.2 wasn't supposed to be released but no reason was given to downgrade. 6.2 seems to be working ok and I don't really want go through all those config files again. Should I downgrade? And if I don't what effect will this have on the other upgrades that I do? Also, I am using xfree-4.2.1-r2. I remember some uses had problems (fonts mostly) with the new 4.2.99.4 but have not read anything negative about it lately. Any advice on this upgrade?

Did a emerge sync, and an emerge -u world to get my system all new and shiny. Got the /etc/config file waring, ran etc-update.

Nope. So I delete it, and emerge portage, wont emerge without a make.conf So I make an empty make.conf, emerge portage, but it doesnt overwrite with a new one. So, this is where it gets good. I emerge unmerge portage, thinking it will register that and do a clean emerge...giving me back my make.conf. Think aobut what I just said. emerge unmerge portage. Can anybody help? __ Do you Yahoo!?

[gentoo-user] Nautilus Problem Solved (Somewhat)
I've finally figured out some sort of solution to my problem. I thought I'd post it just in case anyone else has the same problem. It seems Nautilus will only work when run from a xterminal or a launcher in a gnome panel. If I run it using the menu in enlightenment or the hotkeys on my media keyboard it begins loading multiple instances of itself and sucks all the memory. I'm not sure why this is but for now I'll just have to use the panel launcher.
