Re: [gentoo-user] Live CD is very buggy
Two things.. 1) I think your issue's are unique.. I've never seen any issue's like that before.. 2) If your short on time and patience.. then you may not want to play with Gentoo, it doesn't install like any of the other linux distro's.. That being said.. It will install MUCH cleaner, and much better optermized for your machine, because it will download what it needs and nothing more, and it will compile it to the specifications of your machine as it installs..

[gentoo-user] PCMCIA trouble
I would really appreciate if anybody could help me out on this. The problem is that my pcmcia network card won't be started at boot time. I'll try to fill in with the details I've got: The pcmcia card is based on an rtl8139 chipset. This chipset is not supported by the pcmcia-cs drivers, but should work fine with the kernel driver 8139too. I've read the pcmcia-howto at pcmcia-cs.sourceforge.net and believe I've done the kernel configuration accordingly. I'll provide a listing at the bottom of this email. At boot time I now get the following messages: Linux Kernel Card Services 3.1.22 options: [pci] [cardbus] [pm] PCI: Found IRQ 11 for device 00:0a.0 [...] Yenta IRQ list 0098, PCI irq11 Socket status: 3827 At this point there's no green light at my pcmcia card, and the network services wont start. However, if I pull out the network card and push it back in again, the green light on my network card comes up and the following messages appears in dmesg: cs: cb_alloc(bus 2): vendor 0x10ec, device 0x8139 PCI: Enabling device 02:00.0 ( - 0003) 8139too Fast Ethernet driver 0.9.26 PCI: Setting latency timer of device 02:00.0 to 64 eth0: RealTek RTL8139 Fast Ethernet at 0xca06a000, 00:10:60:5b:f1:f8, IRQ 11 eth0: Identified 8139 chip type 'RTL-8139C' I can now do an '/etc/init.d/net.eth0 start' and everything works fine.

I suggest that you put PATHs to /etc/ld.so.conf and run ldconfig. This will
affect all users gloabally and will set paths automatically after each

If you want LD_LIBRARY_PATH per user basis, put the export
(export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}:...:...) to user's ~/.bashrc file
and it will export LD PATHs every time user logins.

[gentoo-user] multiple titlesets on dvd
I'm still relatively new to dvd burning, so my terminology may not be accurate. What I woluld like to do is put multiple episodes of a tv show on a dvd. I would like each episode to have its own chapters instead of making one huge titleset encompassing all of the .mpg files I can use dvdauthor to create a dvd containing a single titleset with chapters.

RE: [gentoo-user] how to szie an image so it fits on One sheet of paper (command line)
Well, obviously it does support jpegs out of the box, it just isn't doing quite what you were expecting it to do. Clear. Converting the image to a size of 72*8.5 results in an image that prints correctly. pnmtops does the scaling automatically as someone else pointed out. However I assume this down-scaling destroys a lot of detail from the original. So, I'd still like to know how I can reproduce a 300-dpi color scan on a 300- or 600 dpi printer. For if I understand you both correctly, with cups' lp or pnmtops I'm only printing 72dpi images Kind regards, Henk, -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

[gentoo-user] Still can't compile kernel with modules installed. They justaren't being read
I had a perfectly working kernel with various modules loading per the norm. Then, they stopped working and stopped loading. No luck with fixing the missing module. I have an i8.1k Gentoo distro. As you can see from the sample, all my modules are showing missing symbols. Yet, the modules are there and everything use to work. My kernel config from /proc is at the bottom. I am perplexed. :-( Kernel is latest Gentoo source. 2.4.20r5. # insmod maestro3 Using /lib/modules/2.4.20-gentoo-r5/kernel/drivers/sound/maestro3.o /lib/modules/2.4.20-gentoo-r5/kernel/drivers/sound/maestro3.o: unresolved symbol ac97_probe_codec_R84601c2b /lib/modules/2.4.20-gentoo-r5/kernel/drivers/sound/maestro3.o: unresolved symbol add_wait_queue_R25848bca /lib/modules/2.4.20-gentoo-r5/kernel/drivers/sound/maestro3.o: unresolved symbol mem_map_Rb486f0f4 /lib/modules/2.4.20-gentoo-r5/kernel/drivers/sound/maestro3.o: unresolved symbol remove_wait_queue_Ra8045e83 /lib/modules/2.4.20-gentoo-r5/kernel/drivers/sound/maestro3.o: unresolved symbol no_llseek_R6c3b10ab /lib/modules/2.4.20-gentoo-r5/kernel/drivers/sound/maestro3.o: unresolved symbol __pollwait_R535ae9cb /lib/modules/2.4.20-gentoo-r5/kernel/drivers/sound/maestro3.o: unresolved symbol register_sound_dsp_R7b4fa43b /lib/modules/2.4.20-gentoo-r5/kernel/drivers/sound/maestro3.o: unresolved symbol register_sound_mixer_Rfa9d5695 # lsmod Module Size Used byTainted: P nvidia 1542304 11 (autoclean) moosilauk sound # pwd /lib/modules/2.4.20-gentoo-r5/kernel/drivers/sound moosilauk sound # ls ac97_codec.o maestro3.o sound.o moosilauk sound # depmod ./maestro3.o depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in ./maestro3.o ./maestro3.o: # module id=string # pci module vendor device subvendor subdevice class class_mask driver_data maestro3 0x125d 0x1988 0x 0x 0x00040100 0x0000 0x maestro3 0x125d 0x1998 0x 0x 0x00040100 0x0000 0x0001 maestro3 0x125d 0x199a 0x 0x 0x00040100 0x0000 0x0002 # isapnp module cardvendor carddevice driver_data vendor function ... # usb module match_flags idVendor idProduct bcdDevice_lo bcdDevice_hi bDeviceClass bDeviceSubClass bDeviceProtocol bInterfaceClass bInterfaceSubClass bInterfaceProtocol driver_info # module pattern # ieee1394 modulematch_flags vendor_id model_id specifier_id version # module id moosilauk sound # insmod ./maestro3.o ./maestro3.o: unresolved symbol ac97_probe_codec_R84601c2b ./maestro3.o: unresolved symbol add_wait_queue_R25848bca ./maestro3.o: unresolved symbol mem_map_Rb486f0f4 ./maestro3.o: unresolved symbol remove_wait_queue_Ra8045e83 ./maestro3.o: unresolved symbol no_llseek_R6c3b10ab ./maestro3.o: unresolved symbol __pollwait_R535ae9cb ./maestro3.o: unresolved symbol register_sound_dsp_R7b4fa43b ./maestro3.o: unresolved symbol register_sound_mixer_Rfa9d5695 moosilauk sound # $ cat config CONFIG_X86=y CONFIG_UID16=y CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL=y CONFIG_MODULES=y CONFIG_MODVERSIONS=y CONFIG_KMOD=y CONFIG_MPENTIUMIII=y CONFIG_X86_WP_WORKS_OK=y CONFIG_X86_INVLPG=y CONFIG_X86_CMPXCHG=y CONFIG_X86_XADD=y CONFIG_X86_BSWAP=y CONFIG_X86_POPAD_OK=y CONFIG_RWSEM_XCHGADD_ALGORITHM=y CONFIG_X86_L1_CACHE_SHIFT=5 CONFIG_X86_HAS_TSC=y CONFIG_X86_GOOD_APIC=y CONFIG_X86_PGE=y CONFIG_X86_USE_PPRO_CHECKSUM=y CONFIG_X86_F00F_WORKS_OK=y CONFIG_I8K=y CONFIG_MICROCODE=y CONFIG_X86_MSR=y CONFIG_X86_CPUID=y CONFIG_NOHIGHMEM=y CONFIG_1GB=y CONFIG_MTRR=y CONFIG_PREEMPT=y CONFIG_X86_TSC=y CONFIG_HAVE_DEC_LOCK=y CONFIG_HZ=200 CONFIG_NET=y CONFIG_PCI=y CONFIG_PCI_GOANY=y CONFIG_PCI_BIOS=y CONFIG_PCI_DIRECT=y CONFIG_ISA=y CONFIG_PCI_NAMES=y CONFIG_HOTPLUG=y CONFIG_SYSVIPC=y CONFIG_SYSCTL=y CONFIG_KCORE_ELF=y CONFIG_BINFMT_AOUT=y CONFIG_BINFMT_ELF=y CONFIG_BINFMT_MISC=y CONFIG_PM=y CONFIG_APM=y CONFIG_APM_DO_ENABLE=y CONFIG_APM_CPU_IDLE=y CONFIG_APM_DISPLAY_BLANK=y CONFIG_APM_ALLOW_INTS=y CONFIG_APM_REAL_MODE_POWER_OFF=y CONFIG_PARPORT=m CONFIG_PARPORT_PC=m CONFIG_PARPORT_PC_CML1=m CONFIG_PARPORT_SERIAL=m CONFIG_PARPORT_PC_FIFO=y CONFIG_PARPORT_PC_SUPERIO=y CONFIG_PNP=y CONFIG_ISAPNP=m CONFIG_BLK_DEV_FD=y CONFIG_BLK_DEV_LOOP=m CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM=m CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM_SIZE=4096 CONFIG_BLK_STATS=y CONFIG_PACKET=y CONFIG_PACKET_MMAP=y CONFIG_UNIX=y CONFIG_INET=y CONFIG_IP_MULTICAST=y CONFIG_IPSEC=m CONFIG_IPSEC_IPIP=y CONFIG_IPSEC_AH=y CONFIG_IPSEC_AUTH_HMAC_MD5=y CONFIG_IPSEC_AUTH_HMAC_SHA1=y CONFIG_IPSEC_ESP=y CONFIG_IPSEC_ENC_3DES=y CONFIG_IPSEC_ALG=y CONFIG_IPSEC_ALG_AES=m CONFIG_IPSEC_ALG_TWOFISH=m CONFIG_IPSEC_ALG_SERPENT=m CONFIG_IPSEC_IPCOMP=y CONFIG_IPSEC_DEBUG=y CONFIG_IPSEC_NAT_TRAVERSAL=y CONFIG_IDE=y CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDE=y CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDEDISK=y CONFIG_IDEDISK_MULTI_MODE=y CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDESCSI=m CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDEPCI=y CONFIG_IDEPCI_SHARE_IRQ=y CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDEDMA_PCI=y CONFIG_IDEDMA_PCI_AUTO=y

I think something like:

filter f_sysl-ng { program(syslog-ng); };
log { source(src); filter(f_sysl-ng); destination(syslog); flags(final); };
Should get it. You'll obviously need to juggle this with your other filters.

Converting the image to a size of 72*8.5 results in an image that prints correctly. pnmtops does the scaling automatically as someone else pointed out. However I assume this down-scaling destroys a lot of detail from the original. So, I'd still like to know how I can reproduce a 300-dpi color scan on a 300- or 600 dpi printer. For if I understand you both correctly, with cups' lp or pnmtops I'm only printing 72dpi images Not quite true. pnmtops _assumes_ that any image it gets is 72dpi, because PNM files have no resolution information embedded in them like TIFF or JPEG files do. However, the entire image at its full resolution is written out to the Postscript file, and the scaling is done in the Postscript interpreter. Which may, of course, be inside the printer; I don't know the details of the printer you have. On the other hand, as I mentioned before, you _are_ losing information simply because a 300 dpi printer doesn't have the level of colour resolution within each pixel as a 300 dpi scanner does. There's no way around that with software, either, though a proper postscript interpreter should give you as good a result as possible. ---+--- Bryan Feir VA3GBF|A half-truth, like a half-brick, is more forcible Home:[EMAIL PROTECTED] | in an argument than a whole one... | it carries further. -- Stephen Leacock ---+--- -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

As Andrew wrote, linux-headers is used to build glibc. All applications then use glibc as an interface to the kernel. Any software that must must be compiled against a specific kernel version, such as media-sound/alsa-drivers and sys-apps/pcmcia-cs, will compile against /usr/src/linux. Therefore, there is no need to worry that the os-headers are an old version. [EMAIL PROTECTED] emerge -up textutils These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating dependencies ...done! [ebuild U ] sys-apps/textutils-2.1-r1 [2.1] You didn't specify -D and so portage checked to make sure you had a suitable version of sys-apps/coreutils installed (but did not worry about whether it is the latest version). As you do have a suitable version installed, portage is happy to only upgrade sys-apps/text-utils. Using the -D parameter will check all the way down the dependency tree that I outlined above and upgrade all packages in that tree to the latest version, thus catching sys-kernel/linux-headers as well.

If you use ACPI emerge acpid-1.0.2-r2 (you need -r2 for a working default config) you can poweroff your laptop with the power button. Have a look at /etc/acpi/default.sh, you can define any action there. If you want to use the commands halt/poweroff/reboot as user you can either use sudo or set them SUID (security risk) with chmod u+s filename Marius -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

Umm, make the executables suid? chmod +s /sbin/halt /sbin/reboot They are not on the default path of an ordinary user so you would need to either qualify their locations when invoking them or modify your paths in /etc/profile.

Maybe there is some USE flag you're missing. Stroller. Not a bad suggestion actually. I would have checked USE if it were not for the fact that gimp was printing just fine before the updates.

Re: [gentoo-user] Spam harvesting

I suppose it doesnt matter as there likely isnt a hot-naked- [EMAIL PROTECTED] in the first place, and it would probably just end up making me use up more traffic for no benifit. -Chris I Rejecting messages with 5XX at the MTA helps with a few, but bouncing doesn't help at all, and sometimes helps the spammer. Accepting messages and then bouncing them can do one of two things, both of which are bad. 1. You will harass the innocent owner of the email address which has been forged into the spam (often the address of an anti-spam activist). or 2. Your bounce will deliver the spam to the intended recipient. Spammers will send messages to you with the intended recipient in the From: header and you will bounce relay the spam to the victim. In other words, once your (or your ISP's) MTA has accepted spam, it's yours to keep or delete, there's no sending it back. The best you can do is make sure any open relays used are blocklisted and submit abuse reports to the spammer's ISP. -- Yorkshire Dave -- Scanned by MailScanner at wot.no-ip.com -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
