I didn't think it had anything to do with the nvidia nforce2 chipset (which is what you have on your mb, right?) Good question, Kevin. When I first got the mb/graphics card combo (made in hell, for linux, I came to realise) I understood nvidia-kernel provided basic X functions and ati fglrxconfig provided the glx stuff. I put nvidia as the driver in the standard vga device section of XFree86Config-4 along with the ati section provided by fglrxconfig. Maybe it is superfluous for drm but after the pain of getting drm to work I feel inclined to stick with what did it. My response to Mark's message to Enno was simply to state what worked for me. I would be glad to see an expert how-to on getting 3d with an nforce2/ati system.

Jared I've been running two ~xf86 systems for 6 months, always trying the latest 2.6 kernel, and keeping system and world up to date. I've only run into one ps/2 mouse problem with an earlier 2.6.1 mm kernel, and an ocassional compiling problem on packages, due to problematic ebuilds. As examples, the recent module-init-tools (pre5) and grub problems were easily corrected by going back to a previous version, and the kernel problem was solved with newer versions. If you know a little, and can search the forum, these types of things are really pretty minor, and only happen rarely. IMO, with a little common sense, basic Linux skills, and knowing how to mask/unmask packages, running ~xf86 systems should present no unsurmountable problem for most Gentoo users.

I'm looking for one that is compatible with Linux, although, I assume they are just like CD-RW drives in that respect. I'm confused about which one of the umpteen different types of DVD recordable/rewritable media/drives are the most compatible with existing drives and DVD players. I think its something like DVD-++--+--+R++-W+ ;) Can anyone recommend a decent drive that would retail for =$150 and is compatible with everything else? IDE interface is a must as I don't have SCSI. Also, has anyone heard anything about when those nifty new dual-layer burners that can burn both layers of a DVD up to 9GB will be commercially available and how much they will run for? Hello all, I got some time now to answer some of the questions. 1. Compatibility: DVD-ROMs should be able to read DVD-R(W) and DVD+R(W) quite well Most DVD-Players should be able to read -R (~60%) and +R (~50) the RW medias are a bit harder. DVD-Recorders noramly use -RW or RAM and should read these without problems. It is possible to change the booktype of a DVD so that your player might read medias it normally doesn't , so not all drives support this, I think you will find something about it on the dvd-rw-tools homepage. 2. Computer-use Not really asked above but here is my 0.02$ I will use +R(W) for backups as these are fastest on my drive (LG GSA-4081) and the way +RWs are written sounds better to me than -RWs. I would use RAM medias but they are simply to expensive. 3. 9GB medias Some companies are working on drives for these. Perhaps you will find it end of this years. +R will be there first again. Drives that are able to write +R with 8x are technically able to write 9GB media with 2x but will need a firmware update. None knows if this will be provided. 4. drive recomendations I think the LG drives are fine I got no problems (only that my medias do not support speeds over 2x/2,4x). The 4040 should be in your price range. They write all types of media. Plextors are very good but simply too expensive. If you do not plan to use RAM have a look at the NEC 1300 (4x) or the follow-up model (8x) they have an exellent price/performance and are told to be very good, too. So I hope to have helped more than confused. Christian -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

Hell no. why not? because for the things that has already been explained. Progress bars do not give any good information. Take a look at a Windows install for example: remain 10 minutes... 20 minutes later: remain 10 minutes... *But* if Windows showed the actual steps instead of a progress bar, after a few installations, I could manually estimate the remaining time on ANY hardware with more precision. hey, I didn't say I like them! to say it clearly: I don't want to see progressbars, I want to see the steps. But it is very clear that there are quite a number of people who like them, even if they are 'broken' in the way you describe... Maybe the users who want to see a progressbar just want Gentoo for the speed and they don't want to get intimidated with all those messages they do not understand. Then a progressbar is much better: they have an indication of when it will be finished even if the displayed progress is not 100% accurate. So you can say two things about progressbars: 1) NO. 1a) NO, they cannot be implemented correctly and even if it can it costs too much time/effort to keep it correctly. 1b) NO, Gentoo is for 'power users' (users who know what they are doing) and such people just don't want progressbars so we don't implement them. 2) YES 2a) Gentoo is about choice: if you want them you enable them. There are always people willing to implement it. 2b) We should copy windows because that is what 90% of the world is using, only we do it correctly! Well I tend to say 2a and then I will disable them when they are really implemented. If you say 1 with whatever reason than you are ignoring the wish of a lot of users.

I'm looking for one that is compatible with Linux, although, I assume they are just like CD-RW drives in that respect. I'm confused about which one of the umpteen different types of DVD recordable/rewritable media/drives are the most compatible with existing drives and DVD players. I think its something like DVD-++--+--+R++-W+ ;) Can anyone recommend a decent drive that would retail for =$150 and is compatible with everything else? IDE interface is a must as I don't have SCSI. Also, has anyone heard anything about when those nifty new dual-layer burners that can burn both layers of a DVD up to 9GB will be commercially available and how much they will run for? Hello all, I got some time now to answer some of the questions. 1. Compatibility: DVD-ROMs should be able to read DVD-R(W) and DVD+R(W) quite well Most DVD-Players should be able to read -R (~60%) and +R (~50) the RW medias are a bit harder. DVD-Recorders noramly use -RW or RAM and should read these without problems. It is possible to change the booktype of a DVD so that your player might read medias it normally doesn't , so not all drives support this, I think you will find something about it on the dvd-rw-tools homepage. 2. Computer-use Not really asked above but here is my 0.02$ I will use +R(W) for backups as these are fastest on my drive (LG GSA-4081) and the way +RWs are written sounds better to me than -RWs. I would use RAM medias but they are simply to expensive. 3. 9GB medias Some companies are working on drives for these. Perhaps you will find it end of this years. +R will be there first again. Drives that are able to write +R with 8x are technically able to write 9GB media with 2x but will need a firmware update. None knows if this will be provided. 4. drive recomendations I think the LG drives are fine I got no problems (only that my medias do not support speeds over 2x/2,4x). The 4040 should be in your price range. They write all types of media. Plextors are very good but simply too expensive. If you do not plan to use RAM have a look at the NEC 1300 (4x) or the follow-up model (8x) they have an exellent price/performance and are told to be very good, too. So I hope to have helped more than confused. You have been a lot of help. Thanks. -- Andrew Gaffney Network Administrator Skyline Aeronautics, LLC. 636-357-1548 -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

Re: [gentoo-user] Re: Kernel 2.6 and desktop responsiveness under cpu load
Hello, Maybe I am missing something when configuring 2.6. Is there any specific configuration to make the desktop more responsive under load? If I had to guess I'd say that the extra patches in gentoo-sources still provide superior performance under load compared to a vanilla 2.6. However, that's just a guess; I know the O(1) scheduler is in 2.6 but I don't know what else gentoo-sources has that might not be in 2.6. I'm pretty that also the pre-emptive patch is there too. This needs to be enabled from the General menu (I think). I've heard a general impression that the 2.6 kernel isn't as responsive on the desktop. I honestly haven't experienced this--there are times when both the 2.6 and 2.4 kernels have huge latencies. But for the most part I can't really tell the difference. I would expect this to improve in the future though, as the 2.6 kernel is relatively untested (as compared to 2.4) and contains alot of significant changes to scheduling in general. Give it some time to be tweaked and I bet it'll be much better than 2.4 was. Regards, -Mike -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

[gentoo-user] sensors -s: can't access /proc file for writing
I'm using the gentoo-sources kernel version 2.4.22-gentoo-r5. I believe it has a patch that breaks the sensors -s functionality.

On the suggestion of the lm_sensors support team, I compiled a vanilla 2.4.24 kernel. Under this kernel, I was able to run sensors -s. The lm_sensors folks are guessing that the problem is caused by one of the gentoo kernel patches. For what it's worth, the problem also seems to plague users using a Debian kernel.

[gentoo-user] kernel 2.6 and nvidia 5336
FYI, I've read quite a few negative comments about the latest nvidia drivers, but I must say I have had the opposite experience. On my labrat box, I'm running a newly installed latest gentoop 2004 2.6.2 system with ~x86 everything and glibc with nptl activated, so the 5336 level nvidia drivers were selected. I noted: 1. On my nforce2 video card, I notice a 300fps speed improvement (glxgears) over prior 4496 level drivers. 2. I have a VIA chipset. The new nvidia driver is smart enough to disable AGP support even if requested instead of hanging the system as did the 4496 level driver. 3. I have no problem switching to-from an alternate console while X is active. No black screens as others have reported.

After reading man gpg and the gentoo gnupg docs, i ended up making a certificate, as well as doing a revoke (although it didnt seem to invalidate anything afaik). It should warn anyone who's using the public key after it has expired that the key should no longer be used to encrypt messages to you, rsp. to check your signatures. There's no need for a revoke (which would trigger the same warning for a key that is not yet expired, but the revoke has to be distributed alongside a newer key rsp. over keyservers before it becomes effective). You can test this by encrypting a message to yourself (using the expired key). A similiar warning should be shown when you try to use your expired private key.

Collins Richey wrote: FYI, I've read quite a few negative comments about the latest nvidia drivers, but I must say I have had the opposite experience. On my labrat box, I'm running a newly installed latest gentoop 2004 2.6.2 system with ~x86 everything and glibc with nptl activated, so the 5336 level nvidia drivers were selected. I noted: 1. On my nforce2 video card, I notice a 300fps speed improvement (glxgears) over prior 4496 level drivers. 2. I have a VIA chipset. The new nvidia driver is smart enough to disable AGP support even if requested instead of hanging the system as did the 4496 level driver. 3. I have no problem switching to-from an alternate console while X is active. No black screens as others have reported. Enjoy, Well, overall they run fine on my machine, too, and glxgears is really fast. There were two problems though... I'm using 2.6.1 since a couple of days as default kernel after I managed to solve the remaining upgrade-related issues (2.4.x to 2.6.x was definitely the most work-intensive transition I have experienced), and I installed the nvidia 5336 drivers. The first problem was that KDE would refuse to start, complaining about a missing symbol _nv22 in /usr/lib/libGLcore.so.1 (which pointed to the new version of that NVIDIA library). GNOME would work fine. I could resolve this by removing the /usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.so.1 link (which pointed to a MESA library). Unfortunately, that link later popped up again, and I still don't quite know what's creating it. The second problem I had yesterday - when starting America's Army (from KDE), I switched to console. After switching back to the virtual console on which X runs, the screen would be filled with garbage text, and I couldn't perform any inputs! I heard the music from AA playing, so the system wasn't totally hanging, but I could do nothing to get out of this trap, and had to reset the machine. Usually, switching between console and X does work, when AA is running, though, so it was likely some spurious problem. It's just that I didn't have a hanging system (or sudden reboot or other major failure for all that matters) in the 4 months I have this PC, using kernels 2.4.21 and 2.4.24. So I would recommend saving all your work (and closing the mail application, especially if it is configured to fetch e-mails every x minutes) before starting a 3D game.

[gentoo-user] How do you use Kopete...
Well I find myself using Kopete at the moment because I can't connect to YIM under Gaim. I like it pretty well, but I have some questions that I haven't yet figured out. I don't have the option of using sound notification when I'm at work, and one thing I love about Gaim is that I can change the title bar on the Window on an incoming message. This means I can leave my chat windows behind my normal work and just look for the * in the title bar or on the window title in the kicker. I can't find something similar with Kopete. I can make the Window come to top, but I that is extraordinarily intrusive. I can make a bubble come up, or animate the icon in the tray, but that only happens the first time a new chat is opened, and not on each new message.

Re: [gentoo-user] Installing Gentoo from a currently running distro
Shore wrote: Howdy. I'd like to give Gentoo a try on my newest server. The server isn't doing anything critical at the moment so it's a good choice IMHO. Frankly I'm sick of RH9 and its library nightmare. The box is co-loed about 2 hours away so physical access isn't as easy as I'd like. This eliminates booting from a CD as well. I'm shipping a new SATA drive over to this place next week to install in one of the hot swap bays. I'd like to install Gentoo on it. Is it possible to install Gentoo onto that new drive remotely without booting from a CD and/or bringing down the machine as it is now? I installed from an existing SuSE installation using chroot onto the new partition, just following the manual. However, I did have phys. access. The things you should be aware of especially since you don't are (at least?) the following: - I would recommend using the vanilla kernel since they tend to be the most stable AFAICT. - Be very careful where installing kernel modules, and not to overwrite your old kernel image. Install the new kernel only from within the chrooted environment. - Be very careful with lilo/grub. Leave the existing options for booting your old system untouched, and, my recommendation (see below): Do not (yet) change the default boot image and partition! It is probably best to configure the bootloader from the *old* installation. - Install sshd and networking properly. - When rebooting to Gentoo, use the boot parameter panic=N, with an integer N 0 to tell the kernel to reboot after panicking. - Also, make sure Gentoo will reboot when anything goes wrong with upping the network or sshd. It's probably best to use an init-script to reboot after a fixed time, let's say 10 minutes. You then have 10 minutes to see whether ssh works, and whether you can maintain the Gentoo installation remotely. If you see that it works, you can then remove this safeguard (possibly with immediate effect in the Gentoo installation). For example, make an init-script that does shutdown -r +10 , which will start a reboot timer of 10 minutes. If you see that sshd works, you can remotely execute killall shutdown to defuse the time bomb, and disable the script. Make sure the init script is installed properly and will actually execute! Copying it into /etc/init.d is not enough! Read the docs. - If your current kernel has the kexec patch, use it to boot into the Gentoo installation without changing the bootloader's default. That way, if anything goes wrong, the next reboot will reboot the previous distro. - If it doesn't, it may be possible to do something of this kind with lilo rsp. grub alone, but you'll have to ask someone else. Otherwise, you may be able to patch e.g. lilo so that it boots the old system in case the time is greater than let's say now + 1 hour. Don't blame me if you don't get this to work, though! :-) - If you can't boot to Gentoo without changing the default, boot without the panic option, or with a very long one to avoid putting the machine into a never-ending booting loop (e.g. panic=3600) if it does actually fail. And configure your Gentoo init scripts to restore the previous bootloader configuration after booting. This will require the bootloader config to work properly from the Gentoo installation (if it worked chrooted, it should work standalone too, however). Think it through very thoroughly... you have only one try to ensure that Gentoo either comes up remote-maintainable, or your previous installation is automatically rebooted into, everything else will require phys. access...

Do *not* use ln, as that kind of defeats the purpose of the chroot environment (an attacker could open the hard-linked library for write access, and thus compromise your global /lib directory). Maybe one day Linux'll support copy-on-write for hard-linked files... :-) Now it works for anonymous. But I still have the problem of being blind when logging in as normal user. It seems that I have to createt his entire environment for all users I want to be accessible via ftp. I don't really like that, but having anonymous access is sufficient for now. Or is there some way to create a universal chroot environment? Hmm... I don't know. info ftpd may help. BTW: Doing the libs with ln doesn't work anyway, because when you do a chroot, then the root directory is set to the one you specified. So if you have this in your normal environment /lib/libc.so /home/ftp/lib/libc.so - /lib/libc.so it will in truth point to /home/ftp/lib/libc.so as soon as you do the chroot.

Error calculating dependencies. Please correct. This is no different from what I get. It seems all versions of xterm are currently masked. the error appear not for all packages...

Any fix/workaround for this problem?
Removed Sun's JDK and loaded blackdown-jdk. The same problem halted at the

I don't know where the hs_err_pid*.log is. Where could it be?
Does anyone else experience this problem?

[gentoo-user] possiable abcde ebuild bug?
While updating my system I got the folowing error on the 'abcde' (mp3 * ogg encoding) package. /bin/install -c -d -m 755 /var/tmp/portage/abcde-2.1.9/image//usr/bin make: /bin/install: Command not found make: *** [install] Error 127 So I did a 'whereis install' and it came up as /usr/bin/install not /bin/install. All I did was make a symbolic link from /usr/bin/install to /bin/install and it worked fine. Should I post a bug at http://bugs.gentoo.orgn or ??? Jayson Garrell -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
