[gentoo-user] Usb mouse scaling
Yeah I know that the subject of usb mice comes up about every 2-3 days. So just to continue in the spirit of things ... I however, have a different question. The mouse works no problem. But, how the hell do I adjust the scaling parameters? I have large screen (1920x1200) and the scaling is great if I want to move from one side to the other in a hurry (like move the mouse ~1 inch). But if I want to hit anything within a tolerance of, oh say 100 pixels, damn near impossible. I may be exagerating a bit, but it really does the make the system un-usable from an x windows point of view. I have tried adjusting the scaling parameters in the hid config section of the kernel config . . . No help. I have also tried setting a *resolution* option in the x config file which also has no effect. This seams to be an esoteric subject as far as googling is concerned. Any guru's out there who can give me some beta? Does the actual mouse itself make a difference? I believe I read somewhere that the kernel is actually handling the scaling, any truth to that? If so, where is the code at in the source tree? -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

Re: [gentoo-user] Clueless as to what this means, or how to fix it.
This means that the software you wish to install has been held back by developers
because of a buggy install-file or anything else undesirable. see
http://gentoowiki.iq-computing.de/index.php?pagename=PackageMask
you shouldn't unmask a package unless you know what you're doing. give it some time,
and fire an `emerge rsync` and try again (my signature tells best, my friend). you
could always get the source from somewhere else and compile it yourself, but then
you'd just be defeating the purpose of portage in general...

[gentoo-user] Cuecat?
Hi, everyone... Anybody remember those Cuecat thingies they were giving away at Radio Shack a couple years ago? (If you don't, it's basically a hand-held barcode scanner that plugs into a PS/2 keyboard port via a Y-cable.) Well, I have one sitting here and I am hoping to be able to use it for a large inventory project -- 1000+ books, magazines, and comics, all of which have a handy barcode. Currently, when I swipe a barcode with it, nothing at all happens. I'd expect some kind of code to spew out as if I had typed it in, since this thing *is* plugged into the keyboard port. One possible hitch is that I use software remapping to change a cheap normal keyboard into a lovely Dvorak layout. (Meaning my /etc/rc.conf has a line that says KEYMAP="dvorak", and I also use the Dvorak map in KDE.) However, since I get absolutely *nothing* when I try to scan a barcode now, I'm guessing the Cuecat's output is somehow separated from normal keyboard characters... which leads to the guess that it could somehow be made to work. If someone has a clue I could borrow, I'd be very happy. :) -- // Carl Hudkins :: ICQ 5723399 :: PGP 50238D9E // // "I do not take a single newspaper, nor read one a month; // and I feel myself infinitely the happier for it." // --Thomas Jefferson msg01228/pgp0.pgp Description: signature

The entries in /etc/fstab would be something like: /dev/scda /mnt/cdrom iso9660 noauto,ro,user0 0 /dev/hdc/mnt/cdrom1iso9660 noauto,ro,user0 0 The first defines the first scsi cdrom, the second an ide cdrom set up as the secondary master.

I'm sorry; let me put options like this (other way was bad idea):

(CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDESCSI)
SCSI support -> SCSI support (CONFIG_SCSI)
SCSI support -> SCSI CD-ROM support (CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SR)
SCSI support -> SCSI generic support (CONFIG_CHR_DEV_SG)
[ SCSI support -> Verbose SCSI error reporting (CONFIG_SCSI_CONSTANTS) ] ?
These should be the main ones, i believe... just look for the cd-rw howto on tldp.org

[gentoo-user] Problem with KDE
Hello, I've been having a problem trying to install KDE Office.

Re: [gentoo-user] cvs server
You need to set up either inetd or xinetd to start a cvs pserver. I am using xinetd.
I have file I set up named /etc/xinet.d/cvspserver that looks like this:
# default: on
service cvspserver
{
disable = no
port = 2401
socket_type = stream
protocol = tcp
wait = no
user = root
server = /usr/bin/cvs
server_args = --allow-root=/home/bob/cvs pserver
}
When xinetd starts up, cvs is made available as a service on port 2401.

Re: [gentoo-user] No Region DVD Drive
You add files to /etc/devfs.d such as dvd.conf. When devfs runs it reads /etc/devfsd.conf and then includes all files (except hidden ones) in /etc/devfs.d. Look at man devfs for start, then look at /etc/devfsd.conf for examples. You need a LOOKUP, REGISTER, UNREGISTER, and maybe permissions set. There is a web site that is listed in the man page and it has a FAQ.

[gentoo-user] Freezing during bootstrapping/building
I guess this is a follow up to my earlier post. Thanks Brett for the setterm tip. It allowed me build everything However, I have a built kernel and upon reboot forgot to run "setterm -blank 0", having not thought to put it into a start up script. Now this seems like an easy fix, always have "setterm -blank 0" run when you start up linux, but I don't like that. I had hoped that when I built my own kernel the problem would go away, but it's still there. When I forgot to rerun the command I was emerging xfree and well, it froze and created the exact same problem as posted in the thread "What to do when emerge don't work?" I'm trying to solve this by re-emerging system packages after I boot from my stage1 iso cd. So I'm wondering if anyone has any ideas as to what could be causing this screen blank freezing? It only seems to happen if I'm in the process of emerging or building programs. I tried turning off APM in my bios and it hasn't done anything. Perhaps there's some problem with my power management, etc. Any tips would be great, the odd thing is that in the fast (about a year ago) I was running Debian for a long time and I never had this issue, so unless it's something in the newer kernels (post 2.4.2 I think) it would appear to be Gentoo thing (although it could be some other problem and I would run across it installing Debian too now). Well, any help would be greatly appreciated, hopefully when I get home from work my emerging will work properly again :) -Patrick.

In windows, i need to use DVD Region Encoder to get it to work (it simulated the region needed for the disk). Anyone got any idea how i can get around this.

[gentoo-user] linc-1.0.1 compile fails - cannot find index.sgml
I'm trying to bring my Gentoo system up-to-date; however, having problems with linc-1.0.1. It fails to find a file index.sgml. Has anyone run into this before and found a solution? I've had a quick look at both the forums and the bug database but the only item I have found is from an old version of linc. Any help would be appreciated.

Re: [gentoo-user] CDRW problem with 2.4.20-ck3
I tried the parameters you said, but hdc is still my CDRW, no SCSI drives are detected. I really don't know what to do. Maybe is the ck3 patch (i hope not). Support for NCR53C8XX what is for?

Re: [gentoo-user] Build farms
Mark Hazell wrote: Not the fastest things on earth, but why not check out what's available at http://www.mini-itx.com. Basically they offer small form-factor motherboards with pretty much everything on-board. They all run Via processors (some with fans, some fanless), and are well supported in the kernel (the guys on there seem to do a lot of linux 'experiments' with their stuff :-) They also have a variety of cases and stuff, but if you're looking to build something yourself, you'll probably want a huge case, and then try and fit 3 or 4 of those boards in it - I have an old HP Netserver sitting here right now doing nothing that I was thinking of doing something similar with at some point when I find some time (and money) - something like that would be ideal. Good luck, hope the link is of some use, Mark. Thanks, very interesting. Unfortunately, as you said, they're not oriented toward speed - more toward keeping cool/multimedia functionality. Small L2 cache, and limited speeds... I don't think - for a build farm - they're going to be worth their cost or small size. So, I'm looking at compact AMD motherboards now, such as the 24cmx22cm M810LMR from pc-chips: http://www.pcchips.com.tw/M810LMR.html That board's available for £45, and it will take fast components, but doesn't have a DDR memory bus. Can anyone tell me how much this affects compilation? Finally, does anyone have any recommendations on how to layout a system with 3 or 4 of these in? I'm thinking either 1 hard drive shared between them, with all but one booting diskless, or a small, old hard disk for each to boot from, (i've got plenty ;), and use as temporary storage, then a central disk to provide all the apps over NFS? Cheers people, and sorry for being OT... I will be installing gentoo on this ;) MAL -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
[gentoo-user] still keychain problems !
hi,
i have keychain almost working... the only problem left is with Mandrake or probably
with X-consoles, so what is the problem...
I set in .bash_profile
/usr/bin/keychain ~/.ssh/id_dsa
source ~/.keychain/${HOSTNAME}-sh
and everything goes normally, when I log in the system i'm asked for passphrase...
then I enter X and start x-console (gnome-teminal in my case)...
Now if I try to log to remote machine i've been asked for passphrase again..!!! (this
does not happen when i'm under Gentoo only with Mandrake 9.0)..
Now the interesting part :
if I put :
/usr/bin/keychain ~/.ssh/id_dsa
source ~/.keychain/${HOSTNAME}-sh
in .bashrc and during MidnightCommander-session make a Ctrl+O (temporary shell) and
then try to ssh to remote machine i'm not asked for passphrase (probably 'cause when I
do ctrl+o mc executes .bashrc)...
the conlusion then is that when I run terminal no
..hmmm..opps... i've got it ..:")))
when the stuff are in both .bashrc and .bash_profile I'm not asked for passphrase
anymore, 'cause .bashrc is executed even when u start terminal under X...
SO dont forget to fill in .bashrc
