[gentoo-user] ESD config is ignored
Hi, I ran a netstat -an --tcp, and saw, that there are a lot of connections from and to 127.0.0.1, all related to port 16001. I did some search on google, and found out, that it's esound. I wanted to configure esound to use only unix sockets. I changed my /etc/esd/esd.conf to the following: [esd] auto_spawn=1 spawn_options=-terminate -nobeeps -as 2 -unix spawn_wait_ms=100 Esound is added to the default runlevel, so it's started at startup. Then I thought, the -terminate flag causes the esound daemon to terminate immediately after it is started, and later it's started with different options, so I removed that one. Without success. /tmp/esd/.socket isn't even created. Esd still starts with -nobeeps -as 3 -tcp -public. Any thoughts on this? -- Molnar Peter [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

Presumably, this is because port 80 is closed -- but why would it, and all others, be reported as filtered? Because the packets are fragmented, and the fragments get through your firewall. To see them being completely closed, you need to use connection tracking. This will cause the packets being reassembled before they are filtered. -- Molnar Peter [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

[gentoo-user] APM
Hi, I have just switched to gentoo from another distro (finally). My problem is that I can't get APM working, and it would solve some annoying issues. I have complied APM into the kernel (gentoo-sources 2.4.20-r8), but during startup there is only a small sign: apm: BIOS not found. Anybody solved this? -- Molnar Peter [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
[gentoo-user] adsl boottime
Hi, I want to start up my ADSL connection at boot time, or maybe give the users permission to start it for themselves (so I wouldn't have to su every time). Are there any scripts available on the web to do this? Thanks. -- Molnar Peter [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
Re: [gentoo-user] Online package list differs from emerge cache

I just hoped that the package became available just about when I was checking so maybe the mirror was not in sync. Thanks. -- Molnar Peter [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
[gentoo-user] Online package list differs from emerge cache
Hi! I'm new to gentoo. I've installed gnome2, and right now I'm trying to get the new gnome-themes-extras package work. There is a bug in the gnome-panel package, that was fixed in version 2.2.2.2. According to the online package list, it is already available through emerge. But no matter how many times I run emerge sync, I always get the same to emerge -s gentoo-panel. Through emerge the newest version that is available is 2.2.2.1. Any solutions? Thanks. -- Molnar Peter [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
