[gentoo-user] Invalid db entry

2003-07-23 Thread Joe Stone
hi !

Has somebody experiences with the following problem?

A week ago my adaptec struggled and something went wrong
in my filesystem (Reiser).

If I perform a emerge I get the following:

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating world dependencies   !!! Invalid db entry: 
/var/db/pkg/./x11-plugins

.snip..

I think the putput is beeing made by
/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/portage.py

I don't know, if it is a real problem. My system works fine without a problem, 
also emerges works perfekt.

Has somebody an idea how I can get rid of this?

You can use tar with the --exclude option (see man page for more

archive contents. Just use the -z flag for this (again, man tar

Or -j to pipe through bzip2. Although I wouldn't compress the archive at
all in this case, at least not when there is enough free space on the
FAT32 partition. Compression only takes more time and as you usually
won't keep the archive for a longer time, I'd prefer the saved time over
the saved space.

[gentoo-user] Partimage hangs

2003-07-23 Thread Barry . MacMahon
Has anyone ever had partimage freeze on them when you hit continue just
before the enter description screen? It's stops at 'initialising process',
whereas normally it goes straight through to the enter file description.
Could it be because I didn't explicitly specify the directory to save the
images on the server? I just ran it within it's home directory
/home/partimag and assumed it would write there by default.

This is most frustrating as partimage provides the only immediately valid
business case I've managed to raise for Linux at my company and I really
want to use it more at work.

I'm using the 1.4 rc4 boot CD with partimage 6.2 and the server is also 6.2

 full ACK with what you've mentioned about rescue system and such, but in my
 case I'm using 2.4 rescue disks only which happen to have reiserfs support

from my experience the only rescuedisc you find in case of an emergency is the 
oldest ;-)

 (i.e. Knoppix). Also I found that reiserfs performs much better than ext3
 on the computers where I've tried it. And performance is one of my top
 concerns for everyday use on my laptop.

Don't know about performance but my ext3 don't feel slower than reiserfs, 
espacially as on most modern laptops more and more ide work is done from the 
processor and so every filesystem is slower afaik.

 So I'd like to give reiserfs a try on the laptop, too. Best regards,

Do it if you want, but my bad experiences with reiserfs where on my 
every_days_work laptop where its not possible to add another disc for 
temporary backup...

[gentoo-user] fstab and tmpfs

In the actual /etc/fstab I have the following, which I don't remember to

Is there a firewall solution that can block traffic based on file type,

I thing it's hardly posible to do it on kernel firewal,
without havy patching the kernel, because normaly

But for sure it's possible to write such firewal on aplication level.

Re: [gentoo-user] newbie on the list: how to get involved in thegentoo's development

2003-07-23 Thread raptor
I was thinking in the past along these lines 
My idea was ...  a dir structure like this (simplfied idea):
[is from install script]

is common
   |-defaults--step1,step2,stepX
   |- step1
   |- step2
   |- step3
   |- stepX
   |---tmp
   |--- log

then a couple of simple scripts

do, step, next, prev, help 

help X - shows that portion of the installation docs (probably directly converted from 
the web-page available at gentoo, 
less-able of course, help pageX stageY. Just help will show current step 
help)
next - moves to the next step
prev - returns back if possible.
step X - move the installation to the step number-X
do - executes current step

All scripts are bash scripts (possibly class-like) they don't do any interaction.
So gentoo installation will be like this :

start
 ..blah ... blah...
help
..command executed by the user
next
help
do
next
do
...


Of course they will be some Attetion messages... after this is completed there will 
come the wrappers(which will do their work trought this core commands) which will 
stack :

 -- interaction (don't have the clue yet how this will be)
| ncurses
| gtk
|  X
|  qt


there also can be substeps... !!! no idea yet !
/tmp will store the progress of installation, probably will be used also for kickstart 
installations.
This looks very expect-like, so that we may use the same tools for automating 
grub,lilo and fdisk tasks (not sure)..
Everyone happy gui,text, manual install still apply (with the exception that the docs 
are around not on the print copy or web) ...

|Since February, i am happy to work with Gentoo. It's a great!!
|If i write today, it's because i'd like to get involved in the gentoo

|I'm a french programer of 27 years old and a big user of Linux since

[EMAIL PROTECTED] stroller $

This is a listing of my home directory on my courier-imap server.

 Does anyone knows what the best way to make them visible in a e-mail program
 with imap capacity so i can put them on a imap mailserver.
 
 I can't wait until you post the full explanation of this. IMAP is brilliant!
 
 I'm trying to get these mail into a local mailbox, and from there move them to
 a IMAP server.

Well, surely you could untar them to the server directly..?

The directory format for courier-imap is:
  $ ls -a1 .Maildir/
  .
  ..
  .Folder
  .Folder.Subfolder
  .AnotherFolder.
  .AnotherFolder.Subfolder
  courierimapsubscribed
  courierimapuiddb
  cur
  new
  tmp

  $ ls -a1 .Maildir/.Folder
  courierimapuiddb  cur  maildirfolder  new  tmp

NB: the .Maildir is set in courier-imap config files, and can be changed;
it should be the same for all users.

Names of folders  subfolders are arbitrary, but are saved as hidden files,
ie with the dot at the start of their names.

Separate directories exist for a folder  it's subfolders - the directories
which are IMAP subfolders are indicated hierarchically by the dot in the
middle of their names.

Each directory contains the special directories cur, new  tmp. Read mail is
stored in cur.

Maildirs should be made on the server using the `maildirmake` command, and
their subfolders using `maildirmake -f`. The man pages give the deatails.

It shouldn't be too hard to
 `mv folder/subfolder/* .Maildir/.folder.subfolder/cur/`
for each of the folders you have in your tar file. But please do this
carefully for a test-user first - I really am not sure about your .msg
extensions.

Stroller.

It seems to me as if apache cannot resolve its own hostname. Did you
change the hostname (or did you update the base-utils *eg*)?

Be sure that there is an entry for your host in /etc/hosts or that the

 Compression only takes more time and as you usually won't keep the

Not to mention that it's nice to be able to read the entire archive

With snort-inline you have a new iptables target QUEUE which
passes packets to the IDS snort. Here you can define rules based on
the content of the stream and block (and log) unwanted packets. Snort and
snort-inline are often used in a honeynet environment.

 I updated some packages yesterday (among which are glibc and gcc). In the
 new config files I have /etc/._cfgfstab, with the following line near
 the end:
 none /dev/shmtmpfs defaults  0 0
 In the actual /etc/fstab I have the following, which I don't remember to
 have modified:
 tmpfs/dev/shmtmpfsdefaults0 0
 The none is confusing for me.
 Is it necessary to replace tmpfs with none, and if so why?

The man page says none is for swap. For tmpfs have a look at

[gentoo-user] USE preservation

2003-07-23 Thread Canek Peláez Valdés
Hi; I've been bited by the quicktime4linux/libquicktime being now mutually
exclsive. No much problem; I've little packages that use quicktime4linux
dynamically, and those that uses it, I can compile it with USE=-quicktime.

My question is, the USE flags used for compiling a program are preserved? I
mean, if I compile mjpegtools or transcode with USE=-quicktime, the next
time I do a emerge -ud world or emerge -u mjpegtools, portage will
remember that I compile it with the USE=-quicktime flag, and it will put it
again, or should I do it by hand?

I think it will be great that the individual USE flags will be recorded,
because I don't want to do it by hand all the time, or put USE=-quicktime
in my make.conf (I've other packages that correctly use virtual/quicktime).

Thanks...

 from my experience the only rescuedisc you find in case of an  
 emergency is the oldest ;-) 
  
  (i.e. Knoppix). Also I found that reiserfs performs much better than 
ext3 
  on the computers where I've tried it. And performance is one of my 
top 
  concerns for everyday use on my laptop. 
  
 Don't know about performance but my ext3 don't feel slower than  
 reiserfs, espacially as on most modern laptops more and more ide  
 work is done from the processor and so every filesystem is slower 
afaik. 
  
  So I'd like to give reiserfs a try on the laptop, too. Best regards, 
  
 Do it if you want, but my bad experiences with reiserfs where on my  
 every_days_work laptop where its not possible to add another disc  
 for temporary backup...

  That's your opinion.. my fellow patriot. ;)
  ReiserFS destroyed my entire disk when I was running OpenLinux. Don't remind 
me those times please!

  I preffer XFS or EXT3 as well. But I'll never use Raiser again. It really 
sucks! But neither of then, nor Reiser nor XFS supports bad cluster.. so 
well.. I've got yo choose EXT3.

[gentoo-user] init script dependency problem (hotplug before crypto-loop beforelocalmount)

Hi,

I have an encrypted filesystem on my USB-Memorystick, which I want to
mount at boottime at /usb.

So I need the following startup order:

...
modules
hotplug
crypto-loop
localmount

I have problems with the init dependency system. I added crypto-loop
and hotplug to boot runlevel and also tried to adjust depend()
functions of hotplug, crypto-loop, localmount ... for over an hour now.
I simply don' t get it to start this way. Can anyone help me how to do

Bogofilter works well for me.  Save up some spam to start it with and it
will learn as you tell it what is spam and what isn't.  PopFile
(popfile.sf.net) is pretty good as well, though I haven't used it. 

If you can't set up a filter on the server try something like Mozilla or
Thunderbird which has a built in spam filtering system which like
bogofilter, learns based on what you tell it is spam and what you tell
it isn't.

For what it's worth, I've never lost a filesystem to Reiser, but have
lost a few to ext2/3.  I hear that most of the huge Reiser bugs are

I'll share the one and only problem I've had with reiserfs.

One day my system's kernel started to dump the registers and halt.  I would 
reboot and everything would be fine.  I would login to the machine using 
KDM/KDE and work away for a while then again the system would halt.  I 
couldn't figure out what was going on.

I can't remember why I did it, but I booted the system without X and went to 
clean out /tmp.  When I did a 'rm -rf *' in temp the kernel dumped 
registers and halted.  I said and thought to myself WTF.  After rebooting, 
I selectively removed files from /tmp and found that when I tried to remove 
one particular directory the system would halt.  I decided to boot into 
single user mode and run reiserfsck.  When I did, reiserfsck reported it 
found errors it could not fix and I would have to use the '--rebuild-tree' 
option.  I ran reiserfsck with the option and it fixed my problem without 
loosing any data.  I was able to remove everything from /tmp and not have 
the kernel halt.

You can obviously switch the 'j' option with the 'z' option or simply
none for no compression. Whatever you do keep the 'p' which preserves
file attributes and what not. You also need the 'p' while untarring, as
stated in the Gentoo install docs.

BTW, /.journal is the ext3 journal file which should not be copied (as
stated somewhere in the man pages of something... dont remember now).

I've got a Prism1 card here, and a PCI-CardBus-bridge. I want to run

modprobe orinoco_cs
insert card. beep boop
dmesg reports eth1 is alive and looks like an Intersil Prism 1
iwconfig eth1 mode Ad-Hoc essid FOO
ifconfig eth1 192.168.42.42
And then you did /etc/init.d/net.eth1 start ?
(And in case there is no /etc/init.d/net.eth1, check out 
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/gentoo-x86-install.xml#doc_chap21 )

... but this doesn't work. The machine won't ping any of my other
machines (OpenBSD and W2k) around here running adhoc in the same net
and ESSID. The others can talk to each other. Rotating cards didn't do
much. 

How do I get this working? (Or, is it easier to get my NetGear WG311
PCI 802.11g card working?)

 Check the gentoo bugzilla. 
 
  
  There apparently was a kernel patch for this in the 2.3 kernel.
  
  When I first log in on tty1, there are also a lot of modprobe messages
  related to modules which i neither have or want.

 Edit your /etc/modules.autoload/kernel-2.? and check your symlink in /etc for
 modules.conf (AFAIK, as I got rid of the symlink, look at /etc/init.d/modules
 for more details).

The module messages were generated by /etc/modules.devfs,
but the xargs error message is still there.

[gentoo-user] Simple question

2003-07-23 Thread Raimundo Bilbao
Hi,

I have a simple question: if I plan to gentooize ;-D several PCs (all of them have 
the similararchitecure , x86 ), can i mount the portage (/usr/portage) from a central 
server via NFS (or something like this) ?

If I can't, there any other way to do that (like debian's apt-proxy ) or I need to 
emerge every one ? :-(


thanks,

cheers

I mount /usr/portage from a central server via NFS and it works great.

Well you'll need to emerge -Du system or emerge -Du world all the 
systems but at least you will only have to do emerge rsync once for all 
machines.
