The problem is this: Hardware: Pentium 120 with Intel FX chipset Distribution: Gentoo 1.4 The Gentoo-boot-CD boots successful. When checking for PCI-bus the correct chipset is detected and the PIIX-driver is loaded. But when building the kernel (PIIX-chipset-driver compiled into kernel) the (very same) chipset-detection ends in a kernel panic! As the kernel from the boot cd is working you could try to use exactly the same kernel configuration for your system (at least for a start).

After some investigating I found out that many (or all) bz2 files in ftp://ftp.gtlib.cc.gatech.edu/pub/kde/stable/3.1.3/src/ are corrupt. In fact, they only contain about 60 KB on data (kdeutils has 0x6FFF bytes of data, kdeadmin 0xBFFF, etc.) while the rest is filled with zeros. I tried at least three other mirrors, they were ok. In order to emerge kde without interruption I deleted all appearances of the gatech mirror from /usr/portage/profiles/thirdpartymirrors (there were two I think). I don't know how many actually experienced this, I only found one short thread in the forums and no mails in the archives or my inbox. So in order to be sure of the issue I'd like to ask you to verify this if you have some spare bandwidth and time.

Re: [gentoo-user] Kernel Compiled by Genkernel and now I need to upgrade?
As far as I know, genkernel is not documented too well yet. There's basic usage and stuff in the x86 Installation Guide, but anything further than that I haven't heard of. It may still be considered a work-in-progress, since I've heard people on FreeNode complaining about it not working with the 2.6 series.

[gentoo-user] weird emerge -puDv with -cups etc
I decided to stop using exim so I unmerged that and fetchmail and used rc-update del exim wich went fine. I did the same for cups and switched to pdq. As well as just plain took out openssh. Now I'm getting weird depends for things even after fixing my user flags in make.conf(I altered it to- any exim and cups) I also ran updatedb. On 'emerge -puDv world I get the following: Calculating world dependencies ...done!

Then 'emerge -C' of the packages complaining(plus kdeutils as I figured thats why kdelibs complained as there is something printer related in kdeutils). After that recompiling wine, transgaming, kdeutils, and xpdf(which grabs ghostscript). However as you can see that didn't help. So how do I get it to stop requesting cups, openssh, ans ssmtp? Is there a myconf somewhere? or is perhaps an issue up with virtuals or depends for some builds? Thanks oh and also I noticed the occasional build which is masked but only by keywords. That some refuse to build when unmasked unless you include the ebuild instead of the package name. Some still wont build. I tried to build sylpheed 0.9.5.-r1 but it wouldn't let me so I'm using 0.9.5...(only thing I notice is my gpg seems to be missing and my sig so I guess I'll have to figure out what happened to that in the version switch as I didn't alter anything) -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

[gentoo-user] Wireless LAN association problems
Hi, I am trying to get a Linksys wireless card to work in my desktop system. I am using the prism2_pci driver from linux-wlan. The device and drivers seems to be operating fine, so I think I must have a configuration problem. Here is what happens: wlanctrl wlan0 lnxreq_ifenable ifenable=true works fine wlanctrl wlan0 lnxreq_autojoin ssid=KaiserSose authtype=sharedkey the resultcode is success, but in the system log I get: [kernel] linkstatus=ASSOCFAIL (unhandled) Obviously, this is a problem. I've checked the ssid, and WEP keys multiple times. All the entries under WEP in wlancfg-KaiserSose are true, DefaultKeyID is set to 0. I made all the default WEP keys the 128-bit hex key for the network. I am trying to associate with a Linksys wireless router. It currently has MAC filtering off, and allows associations from all wireless clients. Any ideas? If anyone needs more info, I'll get it asap. Thanks, Bryan -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
[gentoo-user] qmail: spamfilter for outgoing mails?
Hi all, I have a qmail server with some v. domains on it (vmailmgr). I filter all incoming mails with SpamAssassin via oMail/oSpam. Now, I want to forward all mails coming in for one domain to another MTA (MS Exchange). I heard the best way to do this is to remove the entry from ~control/virtualdomains and add the v. domain and new MTA to ~control/smtproutes -- is this right (I think I cannot use the .qmail-default file, because I don't want to forward the mails to another email address, but to another server with the same accounts for this domain)? Now, my 2nd question: Is it possible, to filter all of those redirected mails through SpamAssassin as well? I think, SA is called now during local delivery. So, do I have to install a spam filter on the Exchange server (which wouldn't be very cheap I think :)), or can I manage it somehow to pipe all of those forwarded mails through SA, before they leave the qmail server?

Hi, I'm looking at a very small problem on my new Gentoo kernel where I get the message while booting modprobe: can't locate module /dev/rtc From googling around it appears that the recommended solution to this (comment if you disagree) is to compile enhanced rtc support into my kernel (it's not in there right now) AND to create /dev/rtc using the mknod command with a major number 10 and a minor number 135. It may be that I don't really need to create the QUESTION 1: Is this correct? mknod /dev/rtc 10 135 Or do I need to add the c option since it says make a 'character' special file? mknod /dev/rtc c 10 135 QUESTION 2: Is there a way to see the major and minor numbers, along with the type of device an existing character or block special file is once it exists in /dev?

Re: [gentoo-user] [OT] - a couple of mknod questions
On Tue, 9 Sep 2003, Mark Knecht wrote: Hi, I'm looking at a very small problem on my new Gentoo kernel where I get the message while booting modprobe: can't locate module /dev/rtc From googling around it appears that the recommended solution to this (comment if you disagree) is to compile enhanced rtc support into my kernel (it's not in there right now) AND to create /dev/rtc using the mknod command with a major number 10 and a minor number 135. It may be that I don't really need to create the QUESTION 1: Is this correct? mknod /dev/rtc 10 135 Or do I need to add the c option since it says make a 'character' special file? mknod /dev/rtc c 10 135 You have the command written correctly the second time. However, as Gentoo defaults to using devfs, you shouldn't have to manually create a /dev entry. But you still have the options of: 1) Compile enhanced RTC support into your kernel (or as module), 2) find what wants enhanced RTC support and don't use it, or 3) ignore the error. QUESTION 2: Is there a way to see the major and minor numbers, along with the type of device an existing character or block special file is once it exists in /dev? I cannot find the sort of intuitive 'lsnod' command. How does one make sure that the major minor numbers don't trample on each other? It's simpler than you think. 'ls -l /dev' shows you what it is. The first letter of the permissions is b for block device, c for character device, or l for symlink. If it's a symlink, then you have to look at what it links to. But then, you'll see two numbers (a, b) in the size field. This is the major, minor numbers. And if you want to create a device that doesn't exist but don't know its numbers, everything is listed in /usr/src/linux/Documentation/devices.txt (or wherever you have your kernel sources). -- Marshal Newrock, unemployed Linux user in Lansing, MI Caution: Product will be hot after heating -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

[gentoo-user] getting 'at' commands to display on X ??
When I use 'at' to execute a command that involves displaying a dialog on X/gnome, it never works: Can't open display . I have done: 'xhost +', and 'xhost +local:root'.

If I replace 'gdialog' with 'xmessage', same thing . If I (mjbjr) execute 'washer_done.sh' directly (no 'at'), it works fine. The man page for 'at' says that it doesn't pay attention to the $DISPLAY env var. Any ideas? -- - Martin J.

[gentoo-user] privoxy?
Hello,
anyone with privoxy experience here?
I'm trying to block .valueclick.com, ads.osdn.com, and deanimate-gif{first}
but if I modify user.action, privoxy does _nothing_
By _nothing_ I mean, it doesn't filter at all, and it doesn't give error
either.
My understanding is that I need:
{ +block }
.valueclick.com
ads.osdn.com
{ +deanimate-gif{first} }
In case it is important, I'm using this setup:
browser - squid - privoxy - net
Many thanks in advance,
Norberto
