Re: [gentoo-user] Firewall Problems

No luck.  I recompiled my kernel and still cannot modprobe these modules.  The 
iptables seems to work though.

Re: [gentoo-user] Microsoft *.wav files

[Arnaud BARRE]

If your files are *.wma, i have a perl script to convert wma in mp3 file.

#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
my $log="\n";
foreach my $file (@ARGV) {
next if ($file !~ /\.wma$/i);
my $base = $file; $base =~ s/\.wma$//i;
system "mplayer -quiet \"$file\" -ao pcm -aofile \"$base.wav\"";
system "lame -h \"$base.wav\" \"$base.mp3\"";
unlink("$base.wav");
$log.="$base.wma converted to mp3.\n";
}
print "$log";

you must emerge lame and mplayer, it's all.

Re: [gentoo-user] Firewall Problems

[Kevin Miller, Jr.]

I am recompiling the kernel right now.  Connection Tracking was not a module 
in my menuconfig.  Thanks for noticing that.  I will see if this works.

I posted the same message over on the forum so hopefully I can get some input 
there.

Re: [gentoo-user] after kernel upgrade get / mount error

[Heschi Kreinick]

Basically an initrd is a completely different filesystem. This step in the
boot process is trying to turn the filesystem from this:
/ = / on initrd
into this:
/ = / on root volume
/initrd = / on initrd

by doing mount /dev/whatever /new_root.
then pivot_root /new_root /initrd
It's like a chroot, but not quite.
So your problem is that it can't remount / on the initrd to /initrd,
probably because you haven't created the mount point. So it fails by not
remounting the initrdin short, it unmounts it.
So yes, it's not a problem, and yes, you can ignore it, and no, it has
nothing to do with reiserfs. Read linux/Documentation/initrd.txt for more
details.

modprobe: Can't locate module ip_conntrack
modprobe: Can't locate module ip_conntrack_ftp
modprobe: Can't locate module ip_conntrack_irc

I think if this was working before and stopped working after the upgrade then all that 
you need to
do is remerge iptables again and reboot or you will need to manually add these to the 
kernel via
"genkernel --conifg" (that is assuming that you used "genkernel" to compile the kernel 
for you.) ,
which opens a menuconfig editor for your kernel.

Then goto "Network Options->"IP: Netfilter Configuration--->" and make sure that 
the following
are modules or "m"'s.
 Connection tracking (required for masq/NAT)
   FTP protocol support
   IRC protocol support

I don't know anything about the type of firewall that your running and woudl thing 
that for any
error messages that your receiving from your firewall that you direct your questions 
to a list
thats maintained by the firewall that your using for a faster response.

Ok so I have it compiled into the kernel from what I can see.
grep -I REI .config
CONFIG_REISERFS_FS=y
# CONFIG_REISERFS_CHECK is not set
# CONFIG_REISERFS_PROC_INFO is not set

So I take it that the bootup messages that are posted below can safely be ignored?

RE: [gentoo-user] after kernel upgrade get / mount error

[Corey Larsen]

Make sure that ReiserFs support is compiled into the kernel
monolithically, instead of being included as a module. 

e.g. you should have:
File systems --->
<*> Reiserfs support

instead of:
File systems --->
 Reiserfs support

also make sure that you have the correct options compiled in/excluded per the docs at
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/gentoo-x86-install.xml under "Code listing 16.6:"

[gentoo-user] Firewall Problems

[Kevin Miller, Jr.]

After spending most of the day trying to get either Firestarter of KMyFirewall 
to work, I am getting closer to having a firewall set up.  I am still having 
problems though.  Below is the input after I run firestarter, configure with 
the wizard and then start the firewall:
---
romulan root # firestarter
NETFILTER detected
Firewall script saved as /etc/firestarter/firewall.sh
Adding Firestarter startup hook to /etc/dhcpcd/dhcpcd-eth1.exe
Could not write firestarter DHCP hook: No such file or directory
modprobe: Can't locate module ip_conntrack
modprobe: Can't locate module ip_conntrack_ftp
modprobe: Can't locate module ip_conntrack_irc
Firewall started
-

For the first part, I can eliminate the error if I choose eth0 as my network 
device but for some reason, it is actually located at eth1 after I upgraded 
my kernel from 2.4.20-gentoor5 to 2.4.20-gentoo-r7.  I am not sure why it 
changed from eth0 to eth1 so I guess I will need to know how to correct this 
error (I do have two pcmcia slots but only the eth0 is in use).  When I do 
select the etho network device I can run firestarter but I still get the 
modprobe errors and this error:

No DHCP client configuration found

The firewall will not be loaded automatically on a lease renewal.  Please make 
sure the external interface is configured properly or deselect the DHCP 
option if you are using static settings.
--

Now for the second part of my problem, I am not sure how I can add all the 
above modules to my kernel.  I recompiled the kernel several times.  Where in 
the menuconfig do I need to add these modules?  Or do I need to emerge them 
after I compile the kernel?

Below is the list of modules that I currently have:

[gentoo-user] courier-imap problem with sylpheed

[Ian Truelsen]

I just installed qmail and courier-imap and I am sending and receiving
email. Courier-imap processes are running on my server, but I am not
able to access any of the folders with sylpheed (0.9.4). 

I have set up courier-imap with the authpam module and
authdaemond.plain. I have told courier to listen on 127.0.0.1. I am
includung my imapd, authdaemond.conf and authdaemonrc files, in case
someone can see something obvious that I have missed. I apologize in
advance for the length.

There is no firewall running on this server.

Can someone give me some pointers on how to troubleshoot this?
Everything seems to be working, but sylpheed just won't see it. Any help
would be greatly appreciated.

Can someone please explain this a little better. This doesn't make any sense above. 


I keep getting what appear to be strange bootup messages. I don't know if this is

Is this anything to be worried about when I see this uppon bootup everytime?

My apologies in entering this thread very late.

Regarding Bittorrent: 
Bitorrent requires a separate instance and a separate port for every 
file that you are sharing. When some people will be sharing 
hundreds of files this is simply not a workable approach. 
 
Bittorent is optimized towards dealing with a small number of large 
files under very high (initial) demand situations. Our needs are a 
little different, we are dealing with large number of much smaller 
files under moderate demand and without the initial spike in 
demand. 
 
P2P in general: 
The content of the network needs to be tightly controlled. We are 
dealing with source code here and the consequences of someone being 
able to inject malicious code or malicious files into the network 
would be unthinkable. Therefore ALL files on the network MUST be 
vetted by a central server, and ONLY files allowed by the central 
server would be allowed on the network. All files transfered over 
the network MUST be checked to make sure that they match the 
checksums of the authorized files. 

As far as I know there are no p2p networks that allow this much 
central control, the trend in p2p networks is away from central 
control because of liability issues.

I am in the process of writing a p2p system specifically for gentoo 
that will have the necessary controls in place to make it safe for 
distrubuting source code.  It will be optional and controlled by 
the FETCHCOMMEND= setting in make.conf

I also want to create a network that is 100% legal content so that 
when the RIAA or MPAA goes on a rampage we will be unaffected.

Re: [gentoo-user] non-graphical boot & cascading shutdown/reboot from Gnome

[Corey Larsen]

The way that I understand your e-mail you have a set up about the same
as my laptop with only myself and root as a user, and your system boots
up into init level 3.  The reason that the system does not shut straight
down is because your user does not have the perms to do so... if you
start gnome as root it should work.  The above command allows ALL users
on your system the ability to shut down the system reguardless of their

[gentoo-user] Apple 17" colorsync monitor

[Monah Baki]

Hi all,

I'm running gentoo 1.4 and I'be been having problems with the apple colorsync monitor. 
I 
plugged in the right horizontal and vertical sync, yet when grub loads, the screen 
starts 
flickering.
I'm running a trident generic 3d card. This machine works fine on my dell monitor, but 
starts 
acting weird on the apple monitor.

Does anyone know how to set it up? In my cgi-bin, I have a mish mash of

a .pl extension. Is there a way to get mod_perl to recognize the Perl

The 8800 should be compatible with either the DRI project's open-sources
drivers (xfree-drm in Gentoo) or ATI's binary drivers (ati-drivers in
Gentoo).

[gentoo-user] dual-head, dual-user question

[Mark Knecht]

Hi,
   I think this should be quite possible with a tricky bit of configuration.

   If I had a single PC with a dual head graphics adapter, and then two
keyboards and two mice (possibly one mouse and keyboard are USB, or possibly
both) should it be possible to take a single fast machine and let two
non-performance oriented users 'share' the machine?

   If this was to work I'd need the linking of monitor, mouse and keyboard
to be bullet proof, such that logging on at Keyboard A, independent of what
the user ID was, would always correctly show up on the monitor in front of
keyboard A and would always use mouse A. Both heads must be able to run X,
and if possible I want both to run different Window environments if
possible. (Say KDE and fluxbox at the same time on different monitors, but
this is not an absolute requirement.)

   Where would the keyboards and mice go? On separate USB ports to keep
everything straight at boot time? I assume that either startx and/or
.xinitrc could be set up to let one keyboard/mouse & user use a specific
display. In their case they will always sit down at the same keyboards.
(They won't trade.)

   My 70+ year old parents with absolutely zero Linux experience are the
target audience for this idea. This was their request. They got quite burned
recently from a windows Virus problem. I would manage the machine remotely,
which I already do with their Windows boxes and PC Anywhere.

   Any and all ideas much appreciated. Pointers to working examples are
certainly best. Any problems you know abut this sort of system would be
interesting.

thanks,
Mark

That's because you are using Xfree's AGP instead of nvidia's.

Section "Screen"
Identifier  "Screen 1"
Device  "nVidia_GeForce4_TI4200"
Option  "NvAGP" "1"
#BusID  "PCI:1:0:0"
Monitor "HYUNDAI"
DefaultDepth 16

Look for the above section in /etc/X11/XF86Config
"NvAGP" "1" =nvidia AGP(nvgart)
"NvAGP" "2" = xfree AGP (AGPGART)
"NvAGP" "3" = try nvgart first, if it doesn't work, use AGPGART

I believe that if AGPGART is compiled in, nvgart won't work. If it's a 
module, you should get nvgart buy changing the line:

Option  "NvAGP" "x "
to:
Option  "NvAGP" "1 " 
or :
Option  "NvAGP" "3"

No, I didn't use genkernel, I did almost exactly what suggested, except
I ran "make oldconfig" to upgrade my .config from the previous one.  Also
I had no need to edit grub (that I know of).

I have Reiser Support in the kernel, but missing two other Reiser-related
options:

% grep -i REI .config
CONFIG_REISERFS_FS=y
# CONFIG_REISERFS_CHECK is not set
# CONFIG_REISERFS_PROC_INFO is not set
%

Maybe it's one of those other ones.  I will try turning those on tonight
and see if that fixes it.

Thanks for the info,

I'm running an Nvidia card here but I would guess you can do something 
like this:
$ cat /proc/driver/nvidia/agp/status
Status:  Enabled
Driver:  NVIDIA
AGP Rate:4x
Fast Writes: Disabled
SBA: Disabled

  AND:

$ glxinfo will give your openGL information

And test your framerate:

 $ glxgears
28771 frames in 5.0 seconds = 5754.200 FPS
29023 frames in 5.0 seconds = 5804.600 FPS
28997 frames in 5.0 seconds = 5799.400 FPS
28943 frames in 5.0 seconds = 5788.600 FPS

You can enter your gateway IP (beside some other net related info) into the 
file /etc/conf.d/net.

Check the instructions about setting up net.eth0.  You 
specify the gateway in there and use rc-update to add it 
to the default runlevel.

After Re-Reading this, make sure since your using ReiserFs is either not a module in

i believe you're looking for /etc/conf.d/net.  it has your basic network

Re: [gentoo-user] Dual Xeon HT Configuration and Installation questions

[Karl Huysmans]

Hi, 

Just did a server with the same setup (Gigabyte dual xeon mainboard,
based on Intel E7500 chipset, dual 3-ware 8-port ATA-raid with 250GB WD
disks, 1 GB RAM.

I choose for xfs-sources, because it gave me the best options for
optimizing the file system for the ATA raid array's. But you might want
to choose for vanilla-sources if you don't need xfs. Basicly, keep the
kernel as simple as you can (depends on your needs). 

APIC is default when you build an SMP kernel, if you need more detail,
there is plenty of documentation on the web.  

HT should indeed just work when you run a SMP enabled kernel. On my
Gigabyte board there was no option for HT, I only see 2 processors. (I'
ve heard not all Xeons/P4's have hyperthreading). If the
processors/mainboard support it, I know it works, my personal
workstation at work has a single 2.6 GHz P4 and it behaves like a dual
processor machine. 

For make options, look at /etc/make.conf, uncomment the -march=pentium3
line (do not use -march pentium4, you will run into problems).

You will probably use -j3 if only two processors are seen by the
bios/OS.

One good advice: start compiling gentoo form stage 1, on this kind of
hardware it does not take very long to get a basic gentoo system going.

Good luck!

which ones.  I have reiserfs enabled for the kernel.  Does anyone have
any idea what I might be missing, or have a good suggestion for how to
go about debugging this problems?  Thanks,

[gentoo-user] tk-8.4.3 compile error

[Brent]

Hello,

I have tcl-8.4.3 emerged from portage with out a problem, however when I try to emerge tk-8.4.3 I get this error:

In file included from /var/tmp/portage/tk-8.4.3/work/tk8.4.3/generic/tkPort.h:34,

The file tclInt.h is alive and well at /usr/lib/tcl8.4/include/generic/tclInt.h

What have I missed?

Here is the full emerge output:

Hi,

Does anyone know where to set the default umask for files created in

I've never had a problem, I don't think, with `emerge -depclean`. But 
then I'd always -p & read the output first.

The second paragraph quoted above explains why some packages might have 
a problem, and the last paragraph explains how to fix it if some do. I 
don't see why this justifies the emphatic "never, never, never use 
depclean" instruction. if course, I'm not familiar with `dep-clean`, 
which might be MUCH better for all I know.

First of all, never, never, never user 'emerge depclean'. In the future,
use 'dep-clean -U'. As for fixing your system, try 'emerge -u system'.
That should probably merge the missing packages.


I take it 'dep-clean -U' is syntax input parameter for emerge command
No, dep-clean is a separate program that is included with gentoolkit. If 
you don't already have it installed, try 'emerge gentoolkit'.

 I did read the file and configure 
it. It's simple if you have the right idea about what it does, but I had a 
conceptual misunderstanding. 

Since you can't have ssmtp and postfix installed at the same time, I thought 
ssmtp was like postfix, but simplified and not a full blown sendmail 
replacement. But now I realize that it's more like fetchmail in reverse; you 
still need a smtp server.

I was thinking it provided a service like postfix, so that's why setting 
mailhub to localhost wouldn't work.

Now that I have it working, I'm going to install postfix, since that's the 
kind of thing I wanted in the first place.

Re: [gentoo-user] scanning the installed files

tripwire is a bit of a pain under gentoo: too many temptations to easily
upgrade, so you end up rebuilding the tripwire database all the time!-
lets do a quick emerge sync and see whats new ...

:)

However, on a stable machine where not a lot changes such as a redhat
machine I look after, no probs.  And for your task, its probably ideal!

[gentoo-user] kde doesn't help

[Bob Barry]

I installed all of kde 3.1.2 (as far as I can tell) from a Gentoo 1.4 LiveCD.
Kde generally works fine, except for the help system.

At startup by clicking the help icon, the kde help center  displays:
An error occured while loading help:/khelpcenter/index.html?anchor=welcome:

Could not start process Unable to create io-slave:
klauncher said: Error loading 'kio_help'.

Clicking on any item of the help menu brings up a similar message:
An error occured while loading help:/kcontrol/arts/index.html:

Could not start process Unable to create io-slave:
klauncher said: Error loading 'kio_help'.

If khelpcenter is started from an xterm, the host xterm displays:

Attempting to run kioslave out of context shows nothing amiss:

Usage: kioslave

This program is part of KDE.

Running "ldd /usr/kde/3.1/bin/klauncher" shows nothing missing.

After attempting to run kde help, a socket remains in /tmp:

klauncheru6x4ea.slave-socket

Booting Redhat9 on the same machine, kde help runs fine.  Ldconfig -p shows the same 
kio libraries available on RH9 
and Gentoo.

Can anyone tell me what's missing or unconfigured?

TIA

Re: [gentoo-user] scanning the installed files

If I remember correctly there is/was an app  called

I probably don't have /etc/ssmtp/ssmtp.conf configured correctly. I get this 
error:

sendmail: Cannot open mail.localdomain:25

Any hints?

"emerge --emptytree patch" failed on coreutils, but I ran a regenworld, 
emerged the a few new things that were added, and then coreutils emerged, as 
did patch.

dvipdfm still does not emerge, however:

This version of dvipdfm requires that kpathsea and its headers be installed.
If you are sure they are installed and in a standard place, maybe you need a
newer version of kpathsea?  You also might try setting the environment
variable CPPFLAGS (or CFLAGS) with -I pointing to the directory containing

Re: [gentoo-user] openssl perl script

[Andreas Vinsander]

If the goal is to find out what you need to recompile, just follow the 
advice in the ebuild...
For instance: revdep-rebuild --soname libssl.so.0.9.6 -p

Look at the man-page...

[gentoo-user] emerge depclean

[Peter van Eck]

Hi,

I have run into the following problem trying to emerge gnome

emerging gnome came to a halt when emerging the package openjade 

My system (Pentium 200 MMX) get exhausted when compiling that package meaning 
I can't login on any of the console tty's and looged in shells seem to be 
stuck.

I aborted the emerge gnome ( CTRL-C)

I tried installing the binary package (gnome)

This failed with error : package gnome masked. Which it isn't on CD .

I took the brave step to run emerge depclean and now the half of my system
has vanished. Most of the basic OS commands are gone like ls, rm.

What should I do ? untar stage 3 is what I think but is that a wise thing to 
do ??

thanks in advance for any helpful reply ...

rgds,

Peter

[gentoo-user] printing mail via command filter in evolution

[Henti Smith]

Hi all

I'm trying to setup a client with an automated printing filter for mail coming from 
their ordering system.

Evolution has a command filter option and I'm trying to use that to print the mail as 
it comes in.

I've tried lp lp-cups and lpr to print the mail but can't seem to get it working. 

echo'ing and piping to lp lp-cups and lpr works fine.

Any ideas ?

Have you benchmarked it? And looked at the code gcc generates?

MMX, 3Dnow!, and SSE(2) are all SIMD extensions. That means that the
processor does the same operations on multiple data. MMX, for instance,
has 64 Bit registers (%mm[0-7]) and instruction which operate with these
registers. The idea behind it is that you have two 32 Bit values, four
16 Bit values or eight 8 Bit values on which you perform the same
operation simultanously. That means that a 'paddd %mm0, %mm1' adds the
two 32 Bit values in %mm0 to the two in %mm1 (paddw does with the 16 Bit
values and paddb with the 8 Bit values respectively). 3Dnow! operates on
the same registers, but adds support for single precision floating point
numbers. SSE is the same stuff on 128 Bit registers (%xmm[0-7]).

If you want to make use of those SIMD operations, you usually need

1) the data structures in a suitable format. gcc can not do this for
   you, as it would interfere with the ABI.
2) an algorithm which can be split up in a way that you can make use of
   these instructions. Note that this code needs to have as few
   conditional jumps as possible.
3) You usually need to write different code for this
   case, and for a compiler, this is *very* hard.

If you want to make use of SIMD instructions, you usually have to
handwrite it yourself. mplayer includes such handwritten assembler code,
for instance.
