Re: [gentoo-user] Having 2 cablemodems?

Re: [gentoo-user] logwatch ebuild 4.2.1-r1
I noticed the missing file too. I upgraded to the latest ebuild and crontab no longer complains. But, I still get no output from logwatch at all. I have tried running logwatch.pl and having the results sent by email or by sending it to stdout (using the options in /etc/log.d/conf/logwatch.conf) but I get nothing. Have you actually tried running logwatch.pl to see if it does anything? Mike I saw some discussion on this list about logwatch. That reminder me that I wanted to install it. So i did. So I submitted bug# 21812. The problem is that root's crontab is updated with a reference to logwatch.pl in the /usr/sbin, and the script is not there, it IS in /usr/share/logwatch/scripts. This can be fixed by fixing root's crontab. Or... When I went to fix the ebuild, I noticed that this is fixed in the masked 4.3.2 ebuild. So you could just load that. Although I searched for a bug for logwatch (and did not find one), I probably should have looked at newer ebuilds as well, before submitting... Sigh... -- Lincoln A.

[gentoo-user] DMA for ide-scsi emulated cd drives
Hi ppl, Anyone know how to set (and check), the various IDE features, such as DMA, for cd drives that are being emulated by the ide-scsi generic driver? Normally i'd use hdparm on the /dev/ide/blahblah... But once they are being governed by the ide-scsi driver, they appear in /dev/scsi/blahblah, and hdparm refuses to work on them. A couple of possibilities that I thought up were: (a) compile ide-scsi as a module and run hdparm on the ide versions of the devices, before insmoding the ide-scsi driver. I'm assuming this won't work for various reasons. (b) add the original device mappings to /dev via devfsd, and hdparm them. Just wondering if there is a proper way before I go foddling.

[gentoo-user] Asus A7N8X (nforce2) lockups (help!)
Hi everyone. I just got myself a a7n8x (dx, with the dual onboard nics) and I am getting some hard lockups that I hope someone will be able to help me with. The first seems to be related to the network card. I'm using the 3com port and loading the 3c59x driver. To reproduce this I just have to start transfering a large amount of data over the network. I've been trying to scp a backup of my home directory from another box on my local network and a few seconds in the box will lock *hard*, no numlock/capslock leds, and a hard boot is required. The second seems to be to do with large amounts of disk activity (could be the same as the above). After the last hard lockup my root (/dev/md0, a raid0 array of 2x10G partitions on two maxtor ide drives) reached it's max reboot count and a check was forced. About 40 seconds in it locked up hard again, same as before. I'm going to try moving my network to the nforce NIC and see if that helps at all, but if fsck is broken as well... Anyway I rebooted onto a knoppix rescue CD and ran the fsck normally, and it appeared to work just fine (I had to leave for work before it was done, but it was still chugging along a couple of minutes in).

Re: [gentoo-user] DMA for ide-scsi emulated cd drives
Thomas I don't think that will work as those proc locations should not exist Thomas if you have not loaded those devices using the IDE module. Of course they are. If your motherboard has an IDE bus, the proc interface will be there, no matter if you load the ide-scsi modules. That's the beauty ;) I use that (with the ide-scsi for my burner and ide-cd for my DVD) in my desktop machine, and it works. I use it too in my laptop DVD/CD-RW combo, and it works there too. I ask the exact same question some weeks ago, and someone (sorry, forgot the name and wipe my mail account) give me the right answer. The /proc IDE interface is there no matter what (I think at least you should select CONFIG_IDE=y in the kernel config, but I suppose EVERYONE has that... except those with a only-SCSI interface... but then again, if that's your case you don't need ide-scsi :)) Canek -- This life is a test.

[gentoo-user] local IMAP server on gentoo
Hi all- Just finished building a gentoo box that I would like to put to use as an internal IMAP server. Ideally, I would like to run cyrus, fetchmail, procmail, postfix on this box. The setup would be to have fetchmail poll my POP3 server and then deposit the mail into the IMAP user accounts. Has anyone seen a howto or friendly manual which goes over a setup like this one? I had kind of settled on cyrus imap because it seems like its the best these days as far as configuration options go.

I have a similar system to yours. The same motherbard, but a XP2400+ CPU. 1 GB of 333MHz RAM just as you have, using the dual clocking. I am however not using any raid0 partitions.

At the same time, I watched a movie with mplayer. You might want to try the gentoo-sources for your kernel, thats what I'm using.

[gentoo-user] apache trouble
Hello
just installed this system, and earlier today i tried to install apache.
Installation went good, but I can't start it, and i really have no idea
why
# apachectl start
/usr/sbin/apachectl start: httpd could not be started
I did a strace on it, and it complains about no /var/run/apache.pid, but
i dont think its a permission problem, cause cron for example is capable
of creating cron.pid
The only thing i edited in apache.conf was changing Servername, so it
shouldnt be anything there either.
Anyone have any clue about whats causing this?

Re: [gentoo-user] apache trouble
Hello, Use /etc/init.d/apached start This uses the start-stop-daemon.

Installation went good, but I can't start it, and i really have no idea why # apachectl start /usr/sbin/apachectl start: httpd could not be started I did a strace on it, and it complains about no /var/run/apache.pid, but i dont think its a permission problem, cause cron for example is capable of creating cron.pid The only thing i edited in apache.conf was changing Servername, so it shouldnt be anything there either.

Thank you very much for telling me to read up on Pet Hate. Appreciate the

gentoo to help me out if this was a gentoo related problem. It wasn't, but i
didn't know that when the problem occurred.

[gentoo-user] Installing Gentoo, pcmcia wlan card problems

This laptop is currently running Debian, and works fine with the atmelwlandriver from sourceforge. However, installing Gentoo gives me a hard time here. The card is not detected during the bootprocess of Gentoo. I have the source of the atmelwlandriver, but I cannot compile it until I have a working system. And, ofcourse, Gentoo will not install without a network connection... Is there anybody who got a similar setup working ? Thanks, Dick -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

Sorry to jump into this thread but I uncommented the following line in /etc/modules.d/nvidia. options nvidia NVreg_EnableAGPSBA=1 NVreg_EnableAGPFW=1 Then when I ran modules-update I got the following error. depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.4.20-gentoo-r5/misc/svgalib_helper.o What to do? -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

[gentoo-user] Proper updating of /etc config files
Hi, Trying to do this right. After updating portage, I have a message about 4 files that need to be updated. They all start with /etc/._conf. It appears that the proper way to do this update is to save the existing config files, rename these 4 files to their respective names, and then hand edit back in any settings I had made to the earlier files.

Re: [gentoo-user] Proper updating of /etc config files
There is a command: etc-update it will run through it for you. There are several options you can select while running it. Like automerge, ask for confermation to delete old file, I only watch out for stuff that I edit. Like /etc/group , /etc/make.conf ,... Other stuff usually just let it merge them. The stuff I watch out for I either don't let it do it, select to show the differences and make them myself, or if the differences are minor then let it do it. Till you get use to it I would not delete the old file. Decibels On Wednesday 28 May 2003 05:02 pm, Mark Knecht wrote: Hi, Trying to do this right.

Re: [gentoo-user] Proper updating of /etc config files
Hi Mark, Be VERY careful when telling etc-update to go ahead and upate things. I messed up my system big time after I told etc-update to update everything automatically after an emerge -u system. Best policy is to definitely back up your /etc/ directory through a bash script or something BEFORE doing the update. Then like someone said if everything runs okay for a while (I would give it a good week or two) you can assume things are okay.

You can always check the difference between the old file and the new by typing: #diff /etc/._conf.file.config /etc/file.config you will get the diffences between the files, and a lot of the time the diffences will only be a header, comments, or maybe a new option in the file that you may not need. in that case I just do: rm /etc/._* Tab completion helps a lot when determinining what files need to be updated. diff /etc/._[tab] file.conf also running etc-update without making changes will tell you what sub directories your file changes will occur. Your ._* files are in the directories where the old file is. For example if you update apache you will probably be prompted to overwrite, /etc/apache/conf/apache.conf and /etc/apache/conf/commonapache.conf If you've spent as much time configuring Apache as I have you definately don't want to loose these files, and you probably don't need to change your config files unless your updating from apache to apache2, in which case a new directory is created in /etc/apache2. I hope this helps and I didn't confuse you. Summary, just be careful running etc-update after making significant system changes, and always backup. - -- - - William F.
