Re: [gentoo-user] !!! ERROR: sys-apps/apmd-3.0.2-r3 failed

2003-10-09 Thread momesana
My own quick and dirty workaround for this problem:
set the /usr/src/linux symlink to a 2.4.x kernel and merge apdm-3.0.2-r3. 
Afterwards you can immediately set back the /usr/src/linux symlink to your 
2.4.6 kernel.
The problems did occur since the new kernel API breaks compatibility with the 
old kernel-module style. The apmd modules are provided in the old kernel 
module style that is indicated by the *.o suffix as opposed to the new *.ko 
suffix.

Good luck

 Does anybody know a workaround for this. BTW, I didn't enable power
 amangment at all when I compiled the kernel but rather chose acpi. What do
 I need apmd for at all???

 Thanx in advance, momesana

I just injected the apmd package, cause I rely on ACPI in my kernel. Its not 
proper I know.

Enjoy

 If you have a voltmeter, I would check the voltage values (maybe the
 bios or lmsensors too?).  If a voltage regulator failed, it would
 definitely lead to a series of different component failures.

 The values you should see are +/- 3.3v, +/-5v, or +/-12v.  Not sure all
 of those will be present, but those are typical.  If you see anything 
 10% away from standard values, then that's probably the source of your
 problems.

here is what `sensors` give me. Values are so weird that I tought the infos 
were just misread by sensors.
If those values are true. Could it come from my house power?

[gentoo-user] emerge dopewars

2003-10-09 Thread Selentek 24331-03
Hello,

I have two problems with emerge:

1)
$sudo emerge -p -u world
Calculating world dependencies ...done!
[ebuild U ] net-misc/stunnel-4.04-r1 [3.26] 
[ebuild UD] sys-libs/ncurses-5.3-r1 [5.3-r4]

But I don't want to update stunnel, because I have stunnel-3 on server, and I need 
stunnel-3 too

? How can I disable update stunnel ?

And I don't want to downgrade ncurses, because -r1 have not xterm patch to work 
home/end keys in less or nano

? How can I disable downgrade of ncurses until version  5.3-r4 been resiled ?

2)
$ sudo emerge -p dopewars

Is'it game really needs update xfree-4.3.0-r3 ? (I don't think so)

Probably a cleaner solution would be to go to Desktop Preferences -
Advanced - Preferred Applications and set a custom browser to whatever.
I did set this to MozillaFirebird and it seemed to work fine. That way
you don't have to worry about an upgrade to epiphany overwriting the

The sensors should be available under builtins from the configuration menu.
If there is no sensor data, and you are running kernel 2.6.0-test6 or later,
and a gkrellm version  2.1.20, then you'll have to grab the latest gkrellm
Apparently some name changes in the sysfs sensor information required some
updates in gkrellm. 2.2.20 was released on Oct 7 and is not yet in portage.

Ok, so coreutils requires portage 2.0.49 but 2.0.49 was masked this

2.0.49-r3 is unmasked, i've been using it for weeks.

Also, why does emerge not honor the -U flag when it comes to portage? I 
did not want to downgrade but emerge ignores that when it comes to 
portage and downgrades it anyhow.
Guess the dependency checking only goes one level deep.

 okay, me again!
 since I've installed gentoo, I've had problems with my HD. np, bought a
new
 one.
 mobo's chipset hoverheating: no problemo: bought 2 fans.
 mobo got freezed 4 times the same day: well... ok: changed cpu, changed
ram,
 changed mobo.
 now everything (almost) is brand new! reboot. cool, everything works..
 For a while. then everything gets stuck again.
 I can move my mouse for a while. then everything is really stuck.
 So... I've got: new ram, new hd, new motherboard, new ram

 What can I do now? Buy a new video card and hope that the problem came
from
 there? I've used my pc 3 years with mandrake without prolem.

 I need your advice on this one! tia.

for 12V and 5V try the connector that goes into hard drive (or CD-ROM). But

All they do is use compile kde with option objectprelink , but objectrelink
has nothing to do with prelink.
I don't know who spreaded this rumor about Mandrake prelinking it's
binaries, if they did why would their suite be so much slower, becuase of
CPU Flags, or because they don't know how to prelink?
KDE etc. can't even use much of the features that would speed up through cpu
flags optimization at least not from 586 to any pentium III etc.
This is just lame and I don't even want to show this article to anyone,
because they are going to laugh at me.

 really works. glxinfo|grep direct   says Yes.

 But when I run glxgears in almost full screen, I get only 50-60 frames

 or should I be able to get more than that? If so, any pointers to more

If the power supply has a spare cable that would attach to 
a disk drive use that.  Usually you'll find black, red and 
yellow leads.  Check DC volts between red and black and 
yellow and black.

Unless you know that lmsensors is working correctly I'd 
ignore it - check the unit out.  If you don't feel 
comfortable doing it find someone who does and have them 
do it.

Sure it isn't because you're now in 32bit colour, and before you were in

After trying Quake, I don't have the impression that the card works too 
slow. The speed seems to be the same as in Windows XP.

I had the impression that glxgears worked much better in Knoppix than in 
Gentoo, but now I think that's because Gentoo uses the native resolution 
of my laptop's screen (1400x1050), while Knoppix used 1024x768 (IIRC). 
That's a lot less pixels to fill.

 If there is no sensor data, and you are running kernel 2.6.0-test6 or later,

 Apparently some name changes in the sysfs sensor information required some

OK, I got version 2.1.20.  Still no sensor data.  What next?

[gentoo-user] rpm problems

Yes, I know. You see the subject and immediately think I should be 
ignored because I'm on the wrong list, correct? Well, its not quite like 
that.

I'm trying to write an ebuild for Xconfigurator. I'm getting the files 
from ftp://ftp.sunsite.auc.dk/mirrors/redhat/code/Xconfigurator. I 
first tried compiling from the source tarball and that didn't work. It 
requires libnewt, which I installed, but still doesn't compile. So, I 
decided to download the binary RPM and try to install it to see what 
dependencies it complained about. I emerged rpm. When I try to install 
either the binary or source RPM in that ftp dir, rpm tells me that they 
are not RPM files. Can someone download and test those RPMs for me, so I 
can figure out if I'm just crazy?

2.0.49-r3 is unmasked, i've been using it for weeks.

Also, why does emerge not honor the -U flag when it comes to portage? 
I did not want to downgrade but emerge ignores that when it comes to 
portage and downgrades it anyhow.


Guess the dependency checking only goes one level deep.

Lm-sensors IS suspect though I would want to verify with a meter. Many 
sensor chips have rather limited support. Nforce boards while 
supported in version 2.8.0 still get some wierd voltage readings:

Adapter: SMBus nForce2 adapter at 5000
Algorithm: Non-I2C SMBus adapter
VCore 1:   +1.60 V  (min =  +1.40 V, max =  +1.69 V)
+3.3V: +3.32 V  (min =  +2.97 V, max =  +3.63 V)
+5V:   +2.99 V  (min =  +2.68 V, max =  +3.26 V)
+12V:  +1.47 V  (min =  +2.84 V, max =  +3.45 V)
-12V:  +2.67 V  (min =  +0.33 V, max =  +0.78 V)
-5V:   +1.26 V  (min =  +0.70 V, max =  +1.02 V)

actual voltages are within limits.

RE: [gentoo-user] gentoo killed my pc

2003-10-09 Thread Bjorn Sodergren
To Test if the Powersupply is bad:

1) Remove PSU from the case all together.

2) Look at the ATX connector, there will be a Green wire. Short this wire to
ground with a small wire or conductive material (paperclip, etc)

3) If you have a voltmeter handy, Voltages on the ATX supply should read as
follows (around %5 tolerance)
Orange +3.3v
Yellow +12v
Red +5v

PIN SIGNAL PIN SIGNAL 
1 3.3V 11 3.3V 
2 3.3V 12 -12V 
3 GND 13 GND 
4 5V 14 PS_ON 
5 GND 15 GND 
6 5V 16 GND 
7 GND 17 GND 
8 PW_OK 18 -5V 
9 5V_SB 19 5V 
10 12V 20 5V 


However, the powersupply could very well show correct voltages on the bench,
but in the case and under load it will fail. Checking power while the
computer is on and running wouldn't be the best thing for your componants
either.


Also, saying you're having problems isnt any more helpful than saying help
X doesn't work.  I had a drive that was clicking. Thought it was DOA so I
returned it, the second one did the same. No its not Windows XP or Gentoo's
fault. It was my faulty power supply. 

CPU overheating? If you have a decent heatsink (Even the OEM AMD heatsinks
are good enough), did you use thermal grease? This makes a HUGE difference,
much more than one would realize.

Northbridge and RAM overheating is a heat issue in the case (needs more air
flow).

Ramdom Lockups in X (or Windows) not caused by overheating CPU are caused by
overheating Video card or crappy video drivers. Check to see if the card is
hot to the touch when it locks up.


A faulty power supply can cause any/all of the above.

A Note on choosing your power supply.

Don't go blindly with the biggest 500w power supply you can find. Research a
high quality supply and it will never fail you. Many power supply companies
still use the old ATX power distribution standard of having like, 50amps on
the +3.3 and 5v rails, and like, 10 amps on the +12v. The problem with this
is although it worked fine for the 3.3 and 5v chips like the old Pentium
II's and 3, for the new AMD XP and Pentium 4 chips, they rely on the +12v
rail. An XP 2500 can draw up to 7 amps of current from your 12v rail!.
Combine that with the current that other 12v devices such as fans and
harddrives use up, you can quickly saturate and fry your 12v rail out of
your powersupply.

In general, find the ps that has the largest capacity +12v rail you can
afford.
Antec makes very nice powersupplys. The True430 is a definite winner.
http://www.antec-inc.com/specs/true430_spe.html

This is the one I have, 
http://www.directron.com/4fanpsu.html 
The blue one. Made by a company called TTGI , I've put this under serious
stress.

6 harddrives (two 120 gig IDE, 4 80gig SATA :D ), CD-RW/ DVD 4 sticks of

[gentoo-user] SmartArray 641 install problems

2003-10-09 Thread Lloyd H. Meinholz
I am trying to install gentoo on a HP/Compaq ProLiant ML370 G3 that has
a SmartArray 641. I am having lots of troubles figuring out how to do
this. I have looked in the forums, but haven't found any answers yet. I
am trying to install from the x86-basic-1.4-20030911 iso.

When I boot with the doscsi option, the process seems to hang when it
tried to probe/load the aic7xxx_old driver. I found info stating there
was a problem with that driver. So I tried booting without SCSI and then
doing a modprobe aic7xx and modprobe sd_mod. I can't seem to modprobe
sd_mod and I don't find it anywhere in /lib/modules. Are any of the
modules in /lib/modules/2.4.20-xfs-r3/kernel/drivers working for me?

Can anyone give me any pointers or help me out please? Thanks,

Lloyd

PC Power and Cooling makes great products. Very reliable. I've had 3 and not
a one has failed. The machines have all been stable. I use one of their
Silencer 400's right now and it's been great. My only complaint is that it's
not nearly as quiet as they quote on the web page, at least according to my
db meter. My Gentoo box is using an Antec with a variable fan. I run it at
minimum speed and it's more quiet than the Silencer, however, sometimes the
Gentoo box doesn't boot correctly. Possibly a power supply issue, but also
possibly an Asus BIOS issue. (One long beep, three short beeps - no vga

Do you mean you unmerge xfree and xft and then when you re-emerge them

Basically the above means that having xfree installed is blocking your
emerge of xft (which is odd, because you shouldn't need xft, as the
latest xfree has it built in).

You should be able to get rid of this just by unmerging xft.

Marshal,
   Thanks. I've done all that. Removed the video card and used another one.
It only happens with this video card, but it's not a seating problem. I
think it's a power supply issue. My ears are pretty sensitive. The disk
drive doesn't spin up to full rotational speed when this happens. I can
listen to the sound of the machine when it's booting and tell you whether
the box is going to boot or not.

   I boots fine about 9 out of 10 times, so I haven't worried too much about
it. Unfortunately it seems to fail far more often on a remote reboot, which
is strange, isn't it? The machine is up and fine, I'm logged in with ssh,
tell it to reboot, and come home later to find it in this hung state.

   Fun, fun, fun... ;-)

insmod'ing back gets everything working !

Is this the result of a race condition between devfs  
insmod usb-storage ?  if so is there a work around ? 

TIA,

Re: [gentoo-user] Accesscontrol for X

2003-10-09 Thread Patrick Börjesson
 How do I set so that only specified users can use my running
 X-server? My problem is this: When I run a vncserver at home and
 connect to this server from school I can't do 'su -' and use any
 graphical frontend to any program because X is restricted to only my
 user. One solution would be to do a 'xhost +localhost' while still
 not have done a 'su -' and then login as root, but I'm not especially
 happy about giving every user on my home-system access to my
 X-server... So how do I give specified users on my system (root
 especially) access to my X-server through xhost?

Thanks a lot! Tried googling but couldn't find anything useful...

Re: [gentoo-user] Root filesystem could not be mounted

Okay, this may sound stupid, but I had the same problem with reiserfs on
root... it kept rejecting to mount / RW, with exactly the same errors as for
you, but I was able to mount the partition RW manualy from the console. I
figured out, that it failed to mount the part automaticaly (took me plenty
of reboots), because I had notail in the options for the partition. Even
tail didn't work, so I changed the options to defaults - surprise, it
worked. I don't know why it stopped working, neither do I know why my
solution works, but is does.
Hope this is of _any_ help :)

Looks like you might have an incorrect (or missing) root= command in your

Check that it's identical to your previous kernel's.

 gkrellm2 is running, but I don't see any sensor data.

 What do I do next?

   I emerged xfree-drm as recommended in the Gentoo forums, and I
   think 3D really works. glxinfo|grep direct   says Yes.
  
   But when I run glxgears in almost full screen, I get only 50-60

 Driver:  NVIDIA

 Fast Writes: Disabled
 SBA: Disabled

Yep

 are you using nvidia AGP or xfree's AGPGART?
 glxgears here runs 315 f/sec full screen @1600x1200 16bit

same as under Mandrake because I copied the mdk config file over :-)
so it's no config thing it's only a kernel thang.

I have a bout the same fps rate as your card using gentoo, but I have twice
the rate with mandrake.

 bringing it in. Take a look at /var/cache/edb/virtuals and find the line
 with virtual/xft in it, do you have x11-libs/xft in that line? If so,
 remove it. Then 'emerge -u xfree86' and it shouldn't be building xft any
 longer.

Sorry, xfree86 should be xfree in all instances above. I always mess
that up.

I'm working on that. Its a pain in the butt because a few of its

Thanks Andrew. Let's just suppose that down the line I want to resume 
using a package I have injected. Will simply emerging the package =

Or, is there other magic that must be performed?
Just treat it like its a normal package. Use 'emerge -C injected 
package', 'emerge -u injected package', etc.

If you must have an official ebuild file a bug and knowing the dev who

Unmerge injected packages.
Emerge desired packages normally.

After some years of compiling with different gcc versions I state, 
that using
O3 is a useless waste of time. The binaries are bigger (less catch 
left for
anything else), the compiling needs a whole lot of time longer than
evverything else and a lot of proggies are not very stable.

Try Os. I am using Os with my athlon-xp for some time now, with 
pleasurable
results.
You've mentioned this before.
I've just finished an  `emerge -up world` which took several days 
because KDE was rebuilt, so if I can speed compiling I'll be very 
pleased. KDE is slow enough running, or rather *desperately slow* 
running, but I hope to speed this by prelinking (which I'm about to 
attempt).

For the future, tho', what CFLAGS do you recommend for a Pentium 2, 
please..?

I see that a week or so you recommended for the Pentium 3:
-march=pentium3 -Os -fomit-frame-pointer -msse -mfpmath=sse
but I gather from `man gcc` that -msse   -mfpmath=sse are not 
supported on Pentium 2.

Currently I'm using:
CFLAGS=-march=pentium2 -O3 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer
Would you recommend:
CFLAGS=-march=pentium2 -Os -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer
or is there anything else i could usefully (and stably) add..?
Many thanks in advance for your time,

[gentoo-user] Remote printing on CUPS server

2003-10-09 Thread Norbert Kamenicky
Hello,

has anybody set up CUPS for remote printing ?

This is what I did:

*- on server side:*
-  set up  printer using web iface on server and test it (works OK)
- modified  /etc/cups/cupsd.conf  like this:

   LogLevel  debug
   Location /
   Allow From {client's IP}
- *on client side:
*- modified /etc/cups/client.conf like this:
   ServerName {server's IP }



restarted cupsd on both sides, but  lpstat -v  on client is giving  
this error:

lpstat: get-printers failed: server-error-service-unavailable

Any idea ?

[gentoo-user] Lm-sensors ?

2003-10-09 Thread Ernie Schroder
I've gotten lm-sensors working on my Leadtek K7NCR18-D-pro 
motherboard. Several of the voltage readings were way off and I've 
adjusted the formulas to give me sane readings but I have no way of 
telling if they are correct.  I've set things so that, for instance, 
the +12V reading reads +12V and plan to get in there with a volt 
meter to set true voltages. My question is, other than  dropping a 
pot in the 12V line how can I check that a change in the actual 
voltage is reflected properly by my formula?

you could add -ftracer, anything else should be done my pentium2 and Os, so 
your line looks fine for me, but pentium2 users should be give more reliable 
advice.

   The necessary sensor drivers are already IN the kernel. Reload

  gkrellm2 is running, but I don't see any sensor data.

Configure what and how?  I've added i2c_isa, as suggested by another post.  I've
tried built-in or modules.  gkrellm (2.1.20) always reports no sensors
detected.
