[gentoo-user] SUMMARY: Kernel 2.6.0 test1 Exploits
Evening all, Just a quick note to recap -- for anyone interested -- my exploits with 2.6.0 over the past 24 hours (with thanks to Terje for his encouragement ;-). I've managed to enable what I'll call "quasi" fb support -- that is, small fonts similar to what one would get with fb buffer/video selection enabled and a GRUB kernel option of vga=791. This is important to me as I do a lot of work from the command line, and I've gotten used to having lots of real estate to work in. Here's the pertinent .config options: # Graphics support CONFIG_FB_VESA=y CONFIG_VIDEO_SELECT=y CONFIG_DUMMY_CONSOLE=y CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE=Y CONFIG_PCI_CONSOLE=y Which nets me a font somewhat smaller than fb/vga=791. In grub.conf, appended to my kernel line, I have: video=vesa:ywrap,mtrr vga=0x31A A couple further observations: - rsync hung hard on my tonight during a routine backup/transfer under 2.6.0 -- never done this under 2.4.20. I'll have to investigate this one further - my init process serves up the following errors: ===snip=== * Mounting proc at /proc... * No /sys to mount sysfs needed in 2.5+ kernels! * Using /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.4: * Loading module emu10k1... * Failed to load emu10k1 FATAL: Could not load /lib/modules/2.6.0-test1/modules.dep: No such file or directory ===ends=== - anyone know if I have to manually create the /sys directory? Bug? [creating the /sys directory removes the error -- tested as I was writing this] - apparently the init scripts are looking for the ../kernel-2.4 module dir. Bug? - I compiled SBLive support direct into the kernel -- no joy. No sound. - the current nvidia kernel will not compile against 2.6.0 -- you'll have to use the default XFree nv driver. - If you've got your mouse threshold up (mine was at 6), cursor movement under 2.6 is erratic and skitzy. Drop it back to the default of about 3 and you'll be good to go. All else appears "normal" at this time. More as I learn more. Best, /tom -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

[gentoo-user] Emacs menubar doesn't respond to mouse.
Hi, I'm running Emacs on KDE remotely via TightVNC (all from latest stable ebuilds). The menubar in Emacs doesn't respond to the mouse at all, but the toolbar, scrollbars, buffer, etc. do. I don't have physical access to the machine, so unfortunately I can't rule out VNC, but I don't have any other mouse related issues with any other apps, so my inclination is to think that VNC isn't the problem. I'm wondering if it isn't some issue with X and the particular widget being used by Emacs for the menubar, but I'm out of my element here. I know how to access the menu's via keybindings, but the mouse would be nice. I'm really at a loss for how to debug this, so any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Re: [gentoo-user] alsa-driver 0.9.5 - any ebuild yet?
Probably make.conf is the only place that really even mentions them. But
basically, in an ebuild is a list of KEYWORDS. Currently I believe the only
use of KEYWORDS is to define what architectures (sparc, x86, ppc, ...) a
package works on. In your make.profile, make.defaults sets ACCEPT_KEYWORDS
to x86, because you're almost certainly using default-x86-1.4. You're using
default-x86-1.4 because that's what your stage tarball came with; you used
to have to set the link manually but that was back in the 1.0 days.
Anyway, for every arch keyword there's a corresponding ~arch keyword, which
indicates that the package is works-for-me stable (me being the developer)
and ready for testing by general users.
Portage ties all of this together by comparing your ACCEPT_KEYWORDS to the
ebuild's KEYWORDS, and if there aren't any shared, it considers the package
masked. So an ebuild is first put into the portage tree with KEYWORDS="~x86"
and only people with ~x86 see it unmasked; later, the ebuild is marked
stable with KEYWORDS="x86". Note that like many other variables in
make.{globals,defaults,conf}, ACCEPT_KEYWORDS is cumulative, so even if you
set ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" in make.conf, you still have x86 too.
Or maybe you're asking why it's x86, in which case: 8086, 286, 386, 486, 586
(pentium), 686 (pentium 2+)...x86...get it?

When you go to yell at the ISP, the thing you need to find out first is WHERE the slowdown happens. You may be actually getting your full connection speed, but only to the isp because they need to fix something in the way they're handeling your connection internally. Or you're just paying for service they aren't giving you. I don't know what kind of dedicated connection you have so, Take a look at your service agreement, make sure that they aren't providing a MAX of 2mb upload/download.

Re: [gentoo-user] HELP! I dorked it myself!
Not necessarily. If the legacy /dev entries got nuked, you'll need to mount your filesystems manually with the devfs names. Example: mount -t reiserfs /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part3 /usr and such. Unfortunately, dev entries aren't protected by portage, so if devfsd isn't setup to create those entries persistently, you're not going to be able to use them after they're deleted.

[gentoo-user] evolution 1.4.3 seg faults
Anyone else having segmentation faults while using Evolution 1.4.3? Mostly while using the 'contacts' but also in the 'calendar' and 'tasks'. Don't think I have had any while just checking email. But ever since I have used Evolution (under RedHat and Gentoo), the 'contacts' have always generated errors but I would have thought they might have worked out the kinks by now. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
[gentoo-user] reiserfs prevents harddrive suspend of my notebook
Every few seconds something accesses my harddrive, therefore a suspend (hdparm -S1 /dev/hda) is impossible. I have a notebook, so I would really like to spin down the drive for less heat, noise and a longer battery life. I suspect the filesystem reiserfs to do these annoying accesses. It is a journaling filessystem and I guess that ext3 would do that also. Somewhere I found a tip to mount with noatime, but that didn't help. So what are my options? I read about noflushd which reduces drive access to a minimum, but only works with ext2. I would prefer to keep the journaling file system. Anyone solved that problem? Will reiser4 be better in that view? mg -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

Then got an error starting metalog (cause its gone). I tried 'rc-update del metalog' and it said it wasn't there. Finally I realized I had to 'rm /etc/init.d/metalog' then all was fine.

Yep, it actually didn't hang... it's still booting, you just can't see anything ;-) They've enhanced linux for embedded systems so now you can build without any console support at all. Also be sure to include core keyboard support (you can actually compile without any support for PS2 keyboards now as well). Offtopic: does anyone have any feedback on ACPI? Functionality seems to have broken for a lot of stuff compared to 2.4. (/proc/acpi/battery is empty now). -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

[gentoo-user] Posting to Mailman list gives error (Apache2)
Hello, I've finally got mailman working with apache2 and have created a new list. However when I post to it I get the following error: This is the Postfix program at host codewordt.co.uk. I'm sorry to have to inform you that the message returned below could not be delivered to one or more destinations. For further assistance, please send mail to If you do so, please include this problem report. You can delete your own text from the message returned below. The Postfix program <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: Command died with status 2: "/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman post mailman". Command output: Group mismatch error. Mailman expected the mail wrapper script to be executed as group "postfix", but the system's mail server executed the mail script as group "nobody". Try tweaking the mail server to run the script as group "postfix", or re-run configure, providing the command line option `--with-mail-gid=nobody'. How can I configure postfix so that it sends these mails correctly? Or how can I solve this problem at all? With regards P.S. In case it matters, I set the MAILGID="207" in mailman ebuild before emerging since that was my postfix GID. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

Re: [gentoo-user] Which IMAP Server
Bobby R. Cox wrote: Hello, Currently building a new mail server and I am trying to decide what IMAP to use. I was seriously looking at courier-imap because it has pop3 built in. SMTP is going to be Postfix. Any suggestions or comments? Whenever this question has popped up (and it has a lot!) the consensus has always been courier-imap. Here's what I use and I can heartily recommend them. Mail: Courier-imap (imap(ssl)+pop(ssl)) SMTP: Postfix Filter: Procmail -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
