[gentoo-user] nomad zen and gentoo
hey ive been strugling to figure out how to get my nomad zen to work with gentoo, is there any special files i need? does it just mount? i tried mounting it like my sony digital cam with flash disk and that didnt work out too well i tried a few other things sda1 2 sdb i see in the emerge tree a libnjb which if im not mistaken is used for my nomad? a device driver? i wanted to test it and went to the portage mask file package.mask and didnt see it in the list, why? i really dont wanna have to install windoze to use this lol any solutions? thanks for your help = ::: common sense? does it come with a manual?::: __ Do you Yahoo!?

- Original Message - From: Shawn [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: gentoo.org ML [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, December 20, 2003 5:13 AM Subject: Re: [gentoo-user] Kernel 2.6 test must read Did you ever think CPU accounting might be slightly different? Well I'm not sure what are you trying to say now, because you don't refer to a certain part of my post, it would certainly help if you would refer to the part in text you have doubts about. Maybe another explanation helps, top only gets confused when nptl is compiled into glibc, if not top is fine and shows correct values. So what CPU accounting are you talking about ??? The procps version I updated to is supposed to support nptl(so top should support it), however that is not the issue here(only a sideeffect), the issue is the cpu time used by overnet and without nptl I can be absolutely sure, that my programms show the correct cpu time values. Since I ran tests with overnet over the last few weeks with kernel 2.4 to determine the effects, that kerneltuning has on the tcp performance of overnet, I know exactly how much cpu time overnet uses in a specific state. That's why I ask for someone with a webserver or database server to run a test in case he has old statistics with kernel 2.4. I will continue to run a few tests and try to locate the cause for this issue, after I reemerged my apps wthout nptl again. Unless you know how to really profile the app I'd defer to the wisdom of others. Sounds like you think a syntetic test is worth more than a real life performance test. Kernel 2.6 is supposed to be faster, but did a lot of people prove it in real world yet On Fri, 2003-12-19 at 18:16, SN wrote: Okay, I want to summarize my experience with kernel 2.6 now. I upgraded to the 2.6 final yesterday and ran some tests yesterday and all day today. First of all, kernel 2.6 worked fine, no crashes , all my drivers worked all my apps worked, all my hardware worked. Test with overnet however revealed some issues, overnets CPU time usage is much higher with kernel 2.6. The first test I ran was overnet with glibc without nptl, overnet used about twice as much cpu time as before with kernel 2.4. For the second test I installed linux-headers 2.6-beta11 and compiled glibc with nptl (use flag nptl was set), the result stayed the same. So overnet used about 15-20% cpu time with kernel 2.6 , with 2.4 it was around 5-10% . To be able to compare the two results I ran the tests for hours and compared the cpu time whenever overnet build up aproximately the same number of tcp connections(measured with netstat) and the same number of openfiles(measured with lsof). Another effect: After compiling in nptl I noticed, that top gets confused by nptl the values it shows are not correct anymore. For example while compiling the accumulated cpu time is 90% but the compile process cc1 shows that it is using 2-5% cpu time and all other processes show about 0%, cc1 normally is around 90% while compiling, I upgraded procps to the latest release because top belongs to procps, but that didn't help it. So top is not working corectly with nptl. Although the system seems very responsive now I think something is wrong with 2.6 I'm not really sure what causes this, it could be due to the new TCP Stack, a result of the new sheduling, or thread handling. Who knows??? I would love to see a discussion about that and maybe some other tests with other applications, for example a webserver or database server under high load.

The other way around the same thing happens. Moreover, on 2.4 util-linux-2.11 is required, and in 2.6 util-linux-2.12 is necessary to get the mount and losetup commands working without messages that modules should be loaded into the kernel or that the cipher doesn't exist.

Did you turn on debugging in kernel 2.6? My guess is, that you have problems with the kernel 2.6 and the ide controller either due to apic probs or just ide driver probs, which can cause this.

I can see why the dependancys of the packages have to be found from the metadata in the tbz, but why does the dependancy's dependancys have to be found from a tbz of that dependancy? Because it needs to calculate a full dependency graph to make sure everything is satisfied. On a slightly different note, is the building of binary packages realy all that rare?

Re: [gentoo-user] NFS setup
Thanks for the detailed explanation. I installed the server on one system and the client on another. They work and talk to each other. I made my user uids the same on all systems (I've done NFS before on VMS G) and started them at 100 so that matches. Right now I have a Gnatbox hardware firewall (the GB-1000) and it should have those ports masked but I'll check. I'm planning sometime to make one of my boxes a firewall and replace the Gnatbox. Thanks again. On Saturday 20 December 2003 02:27, you wrote: On Friday 19 December 2003 18:17, Andrew Gaffney wrote: Brett I. Holcomb wrote: I want to setup NFS on my systems so I checked the NFS How-to. However, it's dated 8/2002 so I'm wondering how far out of date is it as far a security setup, etc. Do we need to worry about hosts.allow and deny or does PAM handle that now? I built NFS into the kernel and assume all I have to do is install the utilities and then setup the machines as servers with the exports, etc. Are there any Gentoo specific guides for NFS (I didn't see any in the docs). AFAIK, there is no user authentication in NFS, so PAM never comes into the picture. You are limited to allowing and restricting by host/IP only, which is where the insecure part comes in. The existing howto is still pretty much on target. Just setup exports. hosts.deny, and hosts.allow and start the appropriate NFS server and client daemons and portmapper. You need to insure that uids match up for userids on each system, or you won't have much luck. Gentoo (why?) likes to start userid's at uid=1000, wheras SUSE and others start users at uid=500. I changed my gentoo id's to start at 500, which ment finding/trashing a number of /tmp/... entries before gnome/kde would start again. Also, I have one work directory that is writable from both systems, so I made this owned by nobody/nogroup for ease of use. Don't forget about your firewalls (you do have them?). I just finished a setup for my two local lan systems (this one is SUSE 9.0, the other is gentoo). I use Shorewall on the gentoo system, and the sample entries I found on the Shorewall site were right on except for one little wrinkle. I'm not sure whether this is SUSE specific or something added to NFS recently (found no answers via google). NFS typically uses ports 111(tcp and udp), 2049(udp), and high end ports 32700...(udp). So, I fixed up my shorewall rules accordingly. When I did an NFS mount from my gentoo system of a directory exported on the SUSE system, I found that the SUSE system issued requests on port 744(udp). According to the standards this is reserved for Flexible License Manager. So, I had to add 744(udp) to my Shorewall rules. fwiw, here are the rules. You'll need to do your own conversion to iptables if not using Shorewall. # outbound NFS ACCEPT fw net:192.168.0.4 udp 111 ACCEPT fw net:192.168.0.4 tcp 111 ACCEPT fw net:192.168.0.4 udp 744 ACCEPT fw net:192.168.0.4 udp 2049 ACCEPT fw net:192.168.0.4 udp 32700: # inbound NFS ACCEPT net:192.168.0.4 fw udp 111 ACCEPT net:192.168.0.4 fw tcp 111 ACCEPT net:192.168.0.4 fw udp 744 ACCEPT net:192.168.0.4 fw udp 2049 ACCEPT net:192.168.0.4 fw udp 32700: HTH. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
