[gentoo-user] Firewire and USB Device Detection
Well I'm going to take another stab at this and see if I can find a solution to my problem. I'm running the 2.6.0 test9 mm-sources kernel. I have 2 external storage devices, a Maxtor 80GB Firewire Drive and a 32MB USB Pen Drive. I want to assign these to a specific scsi hosts sdc and sdd(sda and sdb belong to my DVD Drive and CDRW Drive thru scsi emulation). I've tried using this in my grub.conf: scsihosts=ide-scsi,ide-scsi,usb-storage,sbp2 Usb-storage is my pen drive and sbp2 is my Firewire drive. I've varied the order of the hosts with no luck. Is there another way I can assign hosts? I've tried compiling firewire and usb storage into my kernel and as modules, no change. When I used the 2.4 kernel and it modprobed the firewire modules at boot up it assigned the firewire drive a scsi host even when I didn't have it connected to the computer making it predictable for Me to assign specific scsi hosts, the 2.6 kernel doesn't do this. Is there a way I can assign scsi hosts other than the scsihosts=host1,host2,... command or am I going to have to do manually? The fact that Windows can do this so easy really irks Me.

You didn't mention that physical access was limited in this way before, right? Do you have MAGIC_SYSRQ compiled into your kernel? If so, it is possible to reboot the machine, and then if whatever you have installed in the MBR doesn't prevent it somehow, it would be possible to boot up with init=/bin/sh, thereby providing root access without the need for a password.

[gentoo-user] ? Recommended 802.11b pcmcia or usb ?
I've tried two pcmcia cards after doing some research and have problems with both. First was d-link 650 which used to be prism2 and supposed to work but newer ones are no longer prism & require proprietary drivers. Took that back and picked up netgear but the newer netgear pcmcia 802.11b is also no longer prism2 but realtek. I tried downloading and building the realtek driver but it didn't work. I _really_ want to avoid proprietary object code that close to the kernel so plan on taking it back tomorrow. The store I got the other two at also has the Microsoft USB 802.11b standalone gizmo. I'm allergic to MSoft but if that's the way to go, so be it. I could also drive an hour and go to a bigger computer store in Atlanta for some other brand/model. So, what works well with gentoo (802.11b wise)? Or please point me to a forum/web page that's up to date. Thanks, Heitzso -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

Just checked out kdemultimedia-3.2.0-beta1.ebuild. The commented depend on alsa-lib has been completely removed, yet the alsa use flag is checked and the configure parameters updated accordingly. i.e. if this is the first emerged package to use alsa, it will die. I have the alsa use flag set and already had alsa-lib installed, however, and the build went fine and is showing ALSA in the control panel so I guess all is well. The ebuild bug should be fixed before it is unmasked. Jason -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

Well, another problem I already mentioned is handling sound. I'm sure you can imagine what happens when you try running xmms when another user is running it on a different display. Ideally, the fast-user-switching stuff would take care of that, and other similar problems. Linux has always been a multi-user OS... on the console. Now it's time to extend this philosophy to X. > Necessity is the mother of all hacks (and kludges, too). I just don't > feel the necessity.

I'll admit, I thought "fast-user-switching" was a neat feature in WinXP, but I wasn't *really* convinced until I saw it in action on Panther. Both implementations have several limitations, the flexibility of Linux could really let it shine. -Eamon -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

Default: off. You might also want to use DontVTSwitch. From the same man page: Option "DontVTSwitch" "boolean" This disallows the use of the Ctrl+Alt+Fn sequence (where Fn refers to one of the numbered function keys). That sequence is normally used to switch to another virtual terminal on operating systems that have this feature. When this option is enabled, that key sequence has no special meaning and is passed to clients. Default: off. - richard -- Richard Kilgore [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

Here's a patch to kdemultimedia-3.1.4-r1.ebuild that enables alsa support.
Don't know if it will compile or not. Might still get stuck on kmidi. I
haven't tested it as I'm running kde3.2 and aren't using alsa anyway due to
terrible sound quality. Let us how it goes if you decide to use it.

Things like vcron require a text editor - any old text editor will do but it needs an editor. Therefor in the vcron ebuild you'll find DEPEND="virtual/editor" and in the nano, emacs, vi and many other ebuilds you'll find PROVIDE="virtual/editor". All the other virtuals list the same way. The file is apparently meant to list installed packages that provide certain behaviour. The format of virtuals' file contents is: [ ...] e.g virtual/editor app-editors/nano app-editors/emacs I don't believe the file is touched during an rsync. emerge uses it when calculating the dependency tree. Any package that is listed against a virtual that is not installed will be marked as required. If an installed package depends on a virtual that is not listed in virtuals, then a default will be taken from /etc/make.profile/virtuals. When unmerging a package, if all slotted versions are removed I believe the package should be removed from the virtuals file but it seems that in most (every?) cases it is being left behind. So to fix your problem, you can just remove the reference to app-editors/emacs from virtuals. If it is the only package providing virtual/editor, then replace app-editors/emacs with the editor of your choice. Jason -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

You just need to add some lines for it in /etc/X11/?dm/Xservers. You can even run logins from remote systems (assuming you've turned on that feature, I believe now it's off by default). So the only "problem" you need to overcome is how to avoid the clunky ++ sequence, and that should be simple enough to code up.

Re: [gentoo-user] Alsa & Kdemultimedia
Yes, it's merged without alsa. What I'm saying it that at least on KDE 2.2.x I could tell it to autodetect or use oss. Since alsa has an oss emulation maybe that will let things work. Maybe not though. Check the control panel and see what you can set up for the sound server. On Saturday 15 November 2003 17:22, you wrote: > Brett I.

I found both bugs with 'RESOLVED' status, so maybe the ebuild can be modified to re-enable alsa (only 2-3 # to remove), but I got a small prob with kde compiles ATM, so i can't test it.

You might want to test whether this also occurs on vanilla 2.6, and vanilla 2.4. I don't know much about i875 chipsets, so I'm not sure about needing to use 2.6.

Re: [gentoo-user] wireless keyboard and mouse system
I'm using a MS wireless mouse with Gentoo and Caldera. It works but the only issue I have with it is that sometimes when I click on something it doesn't see the click. I have to click harder or several more times. The receiver is within three feet of the mouse so I'm not sure what's going on. I may go back to a regular mouse if this keeps up.

[gentoo-user] XFCE-4.0.1 & Why I Love Gentoo
Hi all, I've been running Gentoo for about 6 months now, and am fabulously impressed by it. Case in point: I emerged the XFCE-4.0.1 bugfix release and restarted X. There was a long pause and XFCE informed me (something like) 'Your window manager doesn't support window hints. Some XFCE functions may not work'. Sure enough I had no window decorations, and could not move or resize windows. In my usual panic I re-emerged XFCE4.0, and all was well again. This is why LOVE Gentoo. I know that something like this would have bbq'd my system back in my rpm distro days. Anyhow, did anyone else have this issue? Do I need to upgrade X (I have 4.3.0-r2)? If so, why didn't that get built as a dependency? Or maybe something else is funky... please FAQ me.

Re: [gentoo-user] Runnig an X Application without using the X-Server ?
Run it in a vnc session. Multiple logins at the same time, remote or local, or via tunnel (ssh or zebedee), even over a modem. I run long term GUI jobs in a vnc session, then can log in from where ever and check on them. Screen works well for consoles, but vnc can be a lot more flexible.

Yes. Go to a console screen (++ for example), login and type: startx -- :1 note that you _must_ use two dashes. This tells X to start on a different screen. You can also tell it which vt to use if you want so you know where it is (man X). Once your xmule program is running, you can hit ++ to return to the X login screen (or ++ to get back to a console prompt. Note: anyone at the keyboard can use the same method to get to your login.

[gentoo-user] Urgent: Problem with ls and SELinux policy...
Hi, I've already posted earlier (and in other lists with no answer) with a problem using the ls program... $ cd / $ ls -la * Segmentation fault And sometimes it even blocks... So I investigated a little bit and I removed the initrd.gz from lilo, meaning removed the policy (from SELinux) from boot... And I tried ls with no policy and guess what? It works ! So the problem lies somewhere in the "policy" or using the "policy", right? But where? How do I know? Now I cannot work with no policy because the files have the context placed by "make relabel"... What do I do? Please help... Thanks in advance, Tiago Lima -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
Re: [gentoo-user] depgraph creation failed
Paulo, This is caused when emerge needs a certain package to create the dependency graph for all packages in your world and that package is masked for whatever reason. The package may be masked for the version you need to build mod_php_4.3.4 (check /usr/portage/sys-apps/bzip2) or the version or package may be masked globally (/etc/profiles/package.mask??)

Re: [gentoo-user] LVM and mirroring
The upgrade is something we used to do on solaris boxes, it's about applying patches, or installing software. When we did that, we disconnected one side of the mirror, then did the upgrade/patch/install. If it went fine, we resynced the mirrors as normal, but on failure, we resynced from the disconnected (original) mirror. Both disksuite and veritas VM have this functionality.

Hello everyone, I decided not to use emacs, so i unmerged both emacs and openmotif from my box. Now when i enter 'emerge -p -u system', both are listed as new download (N), while 'qpkg -I -q emacs' returns absolutely nothing. 'make depclean' already executed. (I also removed them from /var/cache/edb/world, but updating the system would also merge them). So, how can i tell emerge that emacs(+openmotif) shall no longer be merged at system update, until the future brings a new emacs dep. ? -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

The hard drive is a western digital SATA raptor with a VIA SATA chipset. This is enabled in the kernel. I'm also using the same config that the livecd used (which detected my drives no problem). > Thirdly, if XFS was a problem the kernel would tell you that. I hadn't thought about that. I guess I thought it might have something to do with it just because this is my first time trying out XFS and I ran into problems. I'm usually a reiserfs guy :) You are correct though. It didn't say anything about XFS so I shouldn't have jumped to conclusions. Thanks! -- Kyle S. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
