[gentoo-user] postscript fonts???
Hi, I don't know why gv display so terrible fonts. :-( I'm generating my .ps via .dvi by dvips, but also postscript file downloaded from the internet are unreadable. I already tryed to emerge gnu-gs-fonts-std and gnu-gs-fonts-other but nothing is changed (what's for are they?) Any suggestion? Should I emerge/install anything?

[gentoo-user] Post Install Questions
Okay, I have installed Gentoo 1.4 on my notebook. I have two problems to get passed now. Be advised, I am a Gentoo newbie and it took nearly a week to get this installed all the way (on my 4th attempt I might add). Problem 1: I screwed up on the grub.conf. I forgot to add the root (hd0,0) line. I tried to edit it but as I saved it, I was told that grub.conf was only a read file. How can I edit grub.conf? Do I need to mount something? Note, I have only used Unix and Linux for a year now. Problem 2: Though I am able to boot Gentoo after some editing the above in the grub, I now cannot get Gentoo to fully load. It freezes after starting the pcmcia. Here is what I get: Starting pcmcia cardmgr[822]: watching 2 sockets cardmgr[822]: starting, version is 3.2.4 cardmgr[822]: socket 1: 3Com 3ccfe575C71 Fast EtherLink XL cardmgr[822]: executing: 'modprobe cb_enabler' cardmgr[822]: executing: 'modprobe 3c575_cb' It stops right here and I have to reboot the computer. I know there was some discussion on Gentoo's lack of support for pcmcia but it was a bit beyond my head. Also, I still could not get my computer connected online (which probably has something to do with the above pcmcia). A newbie needs some help:( Kevin Miller, Jr., MPA, Comparative Intl.

That will show up when you emerge xfree-drm if you use a 'radeon' USE flag. (Drepreciated, but still works for me. In make xconfig, under Character Devices, choose Yes for Direct Rendering Support, No for Build Drivers for old DRM, and No for all options under DRM 4.1 drivers. Build your kernel and get it running. Then emerge xfree-drm and I think you'll be OK. You will also need to modify your xf86config file. Come back later when the rest of this works for you and we'll go through that if you are having problems. Good luck, Mark Thanks for your support Mark! I hope i can manage it with your help. I did the above, the result is similar, still the (EE) LoadModule: Module radeon does not have a radeonModuleData data object. problem. I guess it's not the guilt of the XF86Config.

[gentoo-user] iPod G3 Gentoo
Ok, I finally got firewire working on my Gentoo install :) My Deltron Speedzter external fwusb2 cases both work perfectly, hotplug automatically runs rescan-scsi-bus.sh every time a device gets added or removed, I'll be looking to script the mounting sometime... But for now I have to get my iPod working! Under windows, I'd put the iPod in its dock, or on the cable directly. It'd immediately say do not disconnect on the display, and after 10-20 seconds pop up in device manager as a disk drive. Under Linux, when I plug it in, run the rescan manually, or boot up with it plugged in I get nothing at all - no evidence it even exists! I know its still working as if I plug it into a Windows machine it installs straight away (and this machine was Windows based up until a week ago) Anyone have any ideas?

It's kind of the other way around ;) It's saying that ktelnet is a part of the krb5 ebuild. That is, ktelnet is a special version of telnet that has been Kerberized (yes, you're right, Kerberos stuff) where it passes along Kerberos tickets to the local ktgt server and stuff to avoid needing to send passwords in cleartext, only ticket-granting tickets (TGTs). Nifty technology, but of no use if you don't have a Kerberos realm running either locally or remotely. If you don't use Kerberos, chances are pretty good you probably don't need that stuff at all and could likely safely unmerge it. - Where has /usr/bin/ktelnetd come from, and why doesn't qpkg show me..?

I agree with Gabriel, I use Shorewall myself and have for sometime before I started running Gentoo. Very robost, great web site with awesome examples and FAQ's, and a great mailing list. I myself have been told to learn iptables but I let Shorewall do all of this for me. Shorewall is a frontend for iptables meaning that it basically makes the configuration of iptables easy through the Shorewall config scripts. Its always a good idea to learn iptables though. I myself am to overwhelmed learning tons of other things right now to through IPtables into the mix. I would go with Shorewall though if your going to make a choice. Shorewall is very well maintained and kept up to date bug wise. And now that your running Gentoo getting the latest of anything in the linux world is as easy as emerge pkg name.. HeeHeee..

Re: [gentoo-user] Emerge'ing with dialup tips??
Thanks for the reply everyone. Yes, definetly smarter to include the -f flag for Dialup users. Atleast this way I have all the pkgs. local first. I've found that when I use the -D option this causes the compile time of these pkgs. to take allot longer. My only understanding of the -D is what I read in the man emerge page. Not really to much of a explanation for someone that is new to Gentooisum's... So the way that I was doing this before was emerge -uD world when dialed-up. With, (example: 44 pkgs. needed in my case) I was now kindof trapped. It would grab the first pkg. compile and would/can take for ever to compile that pkg. Meanwhile my dialup connection has to stay up because from the previous command it's going to try download the next pkg inline after compiling the previous. The other drawback to this is that allot of these packages are huge in size and trying to download email or anything else at the same time proved to be very anoying. Not only that, but some of these pkgs. would take acouple hours to compile and my ISP would kill the modem connection when sitting idle for so long..Thats ofcourse if I wasn't in the room at the time pushing traffic through the ppp interface. After receiving everyones tips I did emerge -uDf world and it downloaded all of the needed pkgs. and saved them locally without compiling. I was able to goto bed and have all the needed pkgs waiting for me when I got up. Now the nice thing about this is that I can now emerge -uD world and it will grab all the packages locally and compile one after the other without needing to go out to the internet. I can then dialup and not have to worry about my downloading of other things fighting with simultaneous outbound emerge connections trying to download pkgs sense they are already local.

[gentoo-user] ssh timeouts
Hello, I wonder if anyone else encountered the following problem. My home machine is on an ADSL connection, with the ADSL modem functioning as a router and doing address translation. When I connect outside with ssh, it breaks the connection after very small periods of inactivity (2-3 minutes will usually do it) with Connection reset by peer. I verified that this has nothing to do with autotimeout settings of the shell on the other side. In fact, the login shell and whatever else I ran from it continues running on the other side. I don't experience connection breakage in other TCP connections originating from my machine (e.g. long downloads, telnet). Googling for information, I found many cases when people complained of this problem and were told to put ProtocolKeepAlives with the value of 30 or so in their ssh config files. The problem is that ProtocolKeepAlives seems to be a debian-only extension (perhaps put there precisely to combat this problem?). So, my question is threefold, I guess: has anyone encountered this problem? can anyone explain why this is happening, in technical terms? is there anything I can do to help it?

[gentoo-user] /lib/modules for multiple kernels question
Hi, If there's a page somewhere that explains this issue, please direct me there before you write a lot of stuff down. I just cannot find the answer in Google. I am quite unclear in the Linux kernel build process how to keep multiple versions of the same kernel on the system when they require different /lib/modules directories? How do I build the kernel such that I end up with something like /lib/modules/2.4.20-gentoo-r6-ver1 /lib/modules/2.4.20-gentoo-r6-ver2 and have the right directory associated with the appropriate kernel? I completely understand how to manage the bzImage file and grub to make this work. I just don't get how to handle the modules part. Maybe I'm missing the point and somehow it can just be a single directory with both version's modules in it, but it doesn't seem to be working for me. I'm not clear if this is a Gentoo issue or just a Linux issue in general.

Line 4 seems more likely to me. VERSION = 2 PATCHLEVEL = 4 SUBLEVEL = 20 EXTRAVERSION = -gentoo-r5 Yes. VERSION is the main release number -- to be specific, the full version of the kernel is VERSION.PATCHLEVEL.SUBLEVEL-EXTRAVERSION. So, if you wanted to have multiple versions of one kernel's modules, just change EXTRAVERSION. -- Andrew Farmer [EMAIL PROTECTED] pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature

On the server side, it would be helpful to have two systems whose installed packages are identical, some sort of twin systems. This will allow simple fail over. If I understand well how portage work it should be just a matter of syncronizing the world file of both server and let one install new packages installed on the other. Is this correct? IMHO: No you should have to synchronize /var/db and /var/cache/edb After installing one paket on the first one, you could transfer the binary paket to the second one. The easiest way should be with rsync'ing the second server with the first one, but son't ask me about rsync ;o) Personally, I would fiddle with quickqkg, --buildpkg and a wrapper script, that transfers the paket a to the second server and installs it there. After getting this script working, I would format the second server, tar-up the first one and unpack it on the second. Then the emerge-wrapper would set up.

Do I need to mount something? Note, I have only used Unix and Linux for a year now. Problem 2: Though I am able to boot Gentoo after some editing the above in the grub, I now cannot get Gentoo to fully load. It freezes after starting the pcmcia.

[gentoo-user] genkernel again (initrd)
Hi all, Honestly, I still can't figure out how initrd is created by genkernel. I got a 3ware with 4 45 Gig disks connected (RAID 10). My entire system is on this RAID. Tried to build a kernel (2.4.22) with genkernel (1.7), 3ware as module. During boot, initrd seems to load (detecting storage, detecting usb or something like that) but the 3ware modules are not loaded, kernel panics because it doesn't find /root. Solved the problem by re-compiling the kernel (genkernel --config) with 3ware built-in, no problems. But I would like to know how genkernel/initrd works. I remember from the old RedHat days that their mkinitrd script looks in /etc/modules.config and creates initrd with the modules found there. How exactly does this work in Gentoo? Is there a file to edit? Should something be done in modules.autoload? Should I edit /etc/kernels/? Ore is this just not working yet ...

The only extra requirement that I found for shorewall is iproute-20010824-r4 (masked). The rest was like falling off a log. My generall impression is that the netfilter implementation changes are only those required by 2.6 architectural changes and more bugfixes. -- Collins Richey - Denver Area if you fill your heart with regrets of yesterday and the worries of tomorrow, you have no today to be thankful for. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

[gentoo-user] vanilla-sources (2.4.22) No Athlon XP choice?
I'm in make xconfig and do not see the same Athlon choices I had under 2.4.20. Is this correct (maybe they renamed it) or a bug? Thanks, Mark -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
Re: [gentoo-user] ext3 resizing in LVM2?
nope i have resized ext3 before. and if not then resize it as ext2 and recreate the journal with tune2fs no big deal On Wed, 2003-09-10 at 18:36, Matthew Vaughn wrote: -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 As I understand, there is a specific issue with ext3, the journalling, that makes it impossible for LVM to resize it _at all_ while ext2 can be resized without difficulty.

Re: [gentoo-user] emerge -u system going haywire...
i use one emailer for all my emails. at work people will send me html emails so it is nice to send html back. so my default setting is use html and yes i can turn it off (as you can see here) but to much trouble to do for each email. anyway evo sends the email both as html and as text so if you can see text only it will work. yes i know a waste of bandwith but nothing compared to sending a word document which only contains text...

AFAICS there is *never* a need to send HTML mails, just turn it off. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
