[gentoo-user] ACPI events config file
Hi I am setting up my ACPI on my notebook and have come across a small problem. I am setting the events in the /etc/acpi/events/default config file. Now I have got the ac_adapter event working nicely with speedfreq. Now I want to setup my power button and sleep button. This is from the acpid log file: [Sat Apr 2 00:16:30 2005] starting up [Sat Apr 2 00:16:30 2005] 1 rule loaded [Sat Apr 2 00:16:35 2005] received event "button/lid LID 0080 0005" [Sat Apr 2 00:16:35 2005] completed event "button/lid LID 0080 0005" [Sat Apr 2 00:16:39 2005] received event "button/lid LID 0080 0006" [Sat Apr 2 00:16:39 2005] completed event "button/lid LID 0080 0006" [Sat Apr 2 00:19:36 2005] received event "button/sleep SLPB 0080 0002" [Sat Apr 2 00:19:36 2005] completed event "button/sleep SLPB 0080 0002" [Sat Apr 2 00:20:05 2005] received event "button/power PWRF 0080 0002" [Sat Apr 2 00:20:05 2005] completed event "button/power PWRF 0080 0002" [Sat Apr 2 00:21:32 2005] exiting As you can see the acpid sees the sleep button lid and power button being triggered. Now it is just a matter of getting it to do something with the event. Here is my /etc/acpi/events/default file: event=button power.* action=/etc/acpi/sleep.sh #action=/sbin/init 0 event=button sleep.* action=/etc/acpi/sleep.sh event=button[ /]lid.* action=/etc/acpi/sleep.sh event=ac_adapter.* action=/etc/acpi/ac.sh As I said above my ac_adapter works perfectly its just now to get the events working for the others. All the sleep.sh scipt does is tell logger to log "Zzz" so that I can check whether the event is working or not. Any ideas as to why it is not working correctly? I suspect it is the way I am defining the events seeing that the sleep power and lid are all under the buttons director where ac_adapter is on in its own directory.

Re: [gentoo-user] AC 97 Internal Modem on ICH4 Chipset
Hey lian I have got slmodem working now. So now i can run wvdial. I set the number, user name and password in the configuration file but when i dial with wvdial it seems to still have a problem. It looks for a carrier - firstly doesnt find one, tries again and then prompts me for a password? This is all already setup in the wvidal.conf file in etc. I type in my password but it doesnt work.

[gentoo-user] AC 97 Internal Modem on ICH4 Chipset
Hi All, I am trying to get my AC 97 Internal modem working on my notebook which makes use of the ICH4 Intel chipset. I have tried emerging hsfmodem , hcfpcimodem but both cant find any devices. The hcfusbmodem is currently a maked package. Has anyone got their modem working on their notebook? As you can see the results of dmesg: ziig ~ # dmesg | grep Modem #1: Intel 82801DB-ICH4 Modem at 0xd800, irq 10 A bit more than the above: [uhci_hcd :00:1d.2: Intel Corp. 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) USB UHCI Controller #3 #0: Intel 82801DB-ICH4 with VT1616i at 0xfeb7fc00, irq 10 #1: Intel 82801DB-ICH4 Modem at 0xd800, irq 10 It would seem that the kernel has some support for it, though i am not to sure to what extent. ziig ~ # lspci | grep Modem :00:1f.6 Modem: Intel Corp. 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) AC'97 Modem Controller (rev 03) Thanks Cheers Rav -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Re: [gentoo-user] genkernel with dmraid
The devices havent been created so you cant mount anything. Read here: http://www.net-forums.net/forums/Mounting_Ntfs_Partions_On_Raid_0_Device-t19791.html If dmraid fails you can set it up yourself. Make sure you have emerged device-mapper. How to get the info to change the script below. Do this at the command line: To get your controller info: dmraid -l This will list your raid array info: dmraid -a y -f -t Now at the command line type with your own info: echo "0 320172032 striped 2 256 /dev/sda 0 /dev/sdb 0" | dmsetup create raidarray This will create your raid array, now to get the partition info: fdisk -u /dev/mapper/raidarray Take all the info from your partitions and edit the script. Once you are happy that it is correct than copy the script to /etc/init.d/initraid and add it to the default run-level by rc-update add initraid default. Now this script will automatically create your devices for you. You could probably add the script to boot instead of default if you want to mount the partitions automatically. #!/sbin/runscript start() { ebegin "Map raid array" echo "0 320172032 striped 2 256 /dev/sda 0 /dev/sdb 0" | dmsetup create raidarray einfo "Map partitions" echo "0 102398247 linear /dev/mapper/raidarray 63" | dmsetup create raidarray1 echo "0 217744947 linear /dev/mapper/raidarray 102398373" | dmsetup create raidarray5 eend $? } stop() { ebegin "Stopping raid array" eend $? } On Tue, 08 Mar 2005 10:24:46 +0100, Markus Nicolussi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hello! > > I use the latest genkernel which i created with > > #genkernel --menuconfig --dmraid --gensplash --udev all > > in the config i set the CPU type > and the type of my graphics-card for the fb support > > everything seems fine with the initrd, > > > * determinig root device... > * Booting ... > > > but i get an error afterwards > > > * Checking root filesystem > Partition /dev/mapper/sil_aeabajbhaicfb7: no such file or directory > Give root password for maintenance > > > i type my pw and see, that in /dev/mapper there is only the file "control" > > Can somebody please give me a hint? > > Thanx in advance. > -- > gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list > > -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

I have the same problem as you. Only I was running v2.2.0.0 and the automatic updater decided it was time to move me to v2.2.0.2. After the update it now crashes with the same error. What is more frustrating is that you can disable the updater. So i am also quite keen to see if any one knows anything. On Mon, 7 Mar 2005 21:47:10 -0500 (EST), J.

Many thanks for all the replies. Couple of clarifications/questions: I've only got one stick in, it's a stick of PC3200 512MB, so unfortunately, I can't just swap it with another. Other than trying new ram, is there a way to try and figure out if it's the mainboard or the processor? Since I might be going the new route, are there recommendations for memory brands?

[gentoo-user] [OT?] memtest results: need new ram?
My computer has had some bizzare symptoms for quite some time now, and I finally ran memtest86 from the livecd, and was wondering if anyone could help me understand what the diagnosis is. There were definately errors that popped up; say a page and a half of them. (and here's the stupid question part) does this mean I need to drop $60 on a new PC3200 stick? Is there an acceptable level of error? I've been assuming that the random crashes (usually only happens in Windows, but *sometimes* Gentoo will develop some tics) were heat problems or buggy software; but now I'm not so sure.

Anyone have any luck making lm-sensors work with a Dell 400SC server? I've seen some people in other forums say that it works with Motherboard Monitor, which I'd try, but the system is already in production use. I thought I'd ask here, since there's recently been lots of hot deals on this server lately I imagine that I'm not the only one who's got one! :) I've got all of the kernel stuff working correctly... I just can't find any usable sensors with the sensors-detect command. Anyone made this work, or is there in fact no workable driver in the lm set?

[gentoo-user] xrandr - rotation support on ATI Radeon
I've got an ati radeon 7500 and just got a nice new lcd monitor that pivots for a larger vertical resolution. I assume this is where XRANDR comes in to help me with rotating the screen, but it seems that I can't use it to rotate right now: $ xrandr -d :0 -q SZ:Pixels Physical Refresh *0 1280 x 1024 ( 382mm x 313mm ) *60 1 1024 x 768( 382mm x 313mm ) 60 2800 x 600( 382mm x 313mm ) 60 3640 x 480( 382mm x 313mm ) 60 4 1152 x 864( 382mm x 313mm ) 60 Current rotation - normal Current reflection - none Rotations possible - normal Reflections possible - none $ xrandr -d :0 --orientation left X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes) Major opcode of failed request: 154 (RANDR) Minor opcode of failed request: 2 (RRSetScreenConfig) Serial number of failed request: 12 Current serial number in output stream: 12 $ I can see from the query that no rotations are supported (except the "normal" one). Is this a limitation of the radeon driver? Is there a way to fix this? I'd be curious to hear of success stories from other people with pivot monitors (or anyone with xrandr rotating success).

[gentoo-user] /sbin/runscript - what does it do?
I was looking over how the Gentoo init system works and was wondering what the purpose of /sbin/runscript is?

I don't understand the objection to ntpd. I run it at home and at work. It works great and uses very few resources. The idea for using at least three servers is reliability.

I've been using bogofilter (http://bogofilter.sourceforge.net/) with procmail with great success. A few false negatives now and then but I haven't seen a false positive yet. The only thing I don't like about the setup is that I have to go to a commandline to mark the spam that slipped through bogofilter as spam. I wish that I could just throw something in a cron job that every couple hours it would re-compute its wordlists based on the contents of my spam folders and my other folders. Does anyone have a script that does this? I hear that spamprobe (http://spamprobe.sourceforge.net/) (not used it yet) has this capability built-in. Maybe I'll try switching to see how it works.

Everything works real well except for some of the power (ACPI) related functionality. I'm not sure if it's the ACPI patches or my laptop's ACPI compliance, but some of the events and sleep modes don't work at all or work as I expect them too (but then again, I don't know that much about ACPI). Compiling KDE did generate A LOT of heat, but I found that if I slowed the processor down (one of the few ACPI things that works as I expected it to) that the heat was a lot less (but I guess that's also at the expense of time).

Re: [gentoo-user] 2.5.x kernels
After seeing this thread, I installed 2.5.65 and the latest module-init-tools to see how it would work. It compiled without a hitch. However, I get a kernel panic when I try to boot into it. I'm not quite sure what I'm doing wrong... What's the best way to track down the source of a kernel panic? The very last line says something about "process tried to kill init". I suspect something is also wrong with grub (i have the latest stable version from portage) passing parameters to the kernel as it doesn't start up in framebuffer mode like my 2.4 kernel does (I'm passing the new kernel the same parameters). I wonder if it's not finding my root drive too? The messages go by too fast for me to follow them... Any suggestions?

[gentoo-user] OpenGL/XFree Problem
Hi all, I accidentally compiled xfree-4.2.1-r2 with the "3dnow" use flag turned on. I think it compiled in some kind of 3dnow support for OpenGL applications because when I run programs that use OpenGL (like tuxracer) they crash with "Illegal Instruction". I removed the use flag (i.e. -3dnow in make.conf) and tried re-emerging xfree (i typed "emerge xfree"), but that didn't seem to work, same problem still happens. Any suggestions? If it makes a difference to know this, I have a radeon card in my system running on a celeron (i believe it's a P4 based Celeron). I suspect xfree because when I run gdb when the program crashes, it says the crash is in some function in "/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri/radeon_dri.so" and the function has the name "3dnow" in it.

[gentoo-user] Securing fetchmail
I recently converted my home e-mail box to Gentoo (after having loved using it on my desktop box). I run an SMTP and IMAP server on it and use fetchmail to pull my e-mail locally and deliver it to SMTP. On my old linux box, I had fetchmail run as an unprivileged user since (AFAIK) the only resource it needs is to be able to read the fetchmailrc file. Given fetchmail's security history, I was a little surprised when I discovered that Gentoo appears to let fetchmail run (by default) as root. I don't think this needs to be. I'd like to suggest that this default be changed so that a compromised fetchmail will do less damage (and I can probably update the /etc/init.d/fetchmail file and post a patch). However, I don't know what the best way to run it is. Would it be better to run fetchmail in some kind chroot jail? If so, how would you set it up? (I'm not too familiar with making application run in a chroot jail). If just running as a user is sufficient, what user? Should there be a dedicated fetchmail user?

Re: [gentoo-user] kdelibs emerge errors - solved
Problem solved! After doing some digging, I found that someone had a similar problem with the kdeedu database and that the solution was to run: /usr/portage/sys-devel/gcc/files/fix_libtool_files.sh Well, that worked, but only after I added /usr/kde/3.1/lib to my /etc/ld.so.conf file. I guess artsd got installed as a dependency to some other package and didn't leave anything that said it was installing files in /usr/kde/3.1/lib I'm pretty sure everything is ok now.

[gentoo-user] Funny Keyboard Repeat Rate
I just did a fresh Gentoo 1.4 rc2 install on my desktop PC and I've been having some issues with the keyboard repeat rate and delay. At a framebuffer console, the repeat rate was going really slow, so I put the following in my /etc/conf.d/local.start file: /usr/bin/kbdrate -r 24.0 > /dev/null That cleaned up the console for me. But once I got X working, I've been having trouble with X. While typing things in a terminal (or even as I type this e-mail), some keys seem to *stick* and they repeat themselves a few (actually , usually a lot like 20-40) times. It seems that this might only happen when there is a CPU load (like while I'm emerging something). Even then, this never happened before. Any suggestions? I tried messing with the keyboard rate with xset, but couldn't seem to find a value that stopped this behavior. Is the console's keyboard rate messing with X's rate?

Re: [gentoo-user] Gentoo tar different??
> Is the Gentoo tar modified version - why isn't he -j recognized?? > > Thanks. I don't know if the Gentoo tar is modified or not, but in my pre Gentoo days, I used "-y" with tar instead of "-j". "-j" tells tar that the files is bzipped so try changing it to "-y" (which does the same thing at the tar I used to use). Ryan [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

That handles hotplugging, etc. I use /dev/input/mice as well for that same reason (I don't always have my mouse plugged in on my laptop). I'd like to recommend (unless there is good reason not to that I'm not aware of) that the Gentoo Linux Desktop Configuration Guide reflect this. It seems to me to be a better setup.

Re: [gentoo-user] problem with iptables and static NAT

My first guess would be to check to see if your inner machine (172.16.1.128) has some kind of firewall rule on it that blocks ping attempts from machines outside the network. Maybe show us the rules running on the GW *and* the inner machine by: iptables -t filter -L iptables -t nat -L Also, check out the netfilter lists at www.netfilter.org if you need more help. ryan [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

I just noticed that I'm having the same problem. I've got the blackdown jdk installed on by box and while the symlink is correct, I got mozilla to complain (when I launched it from a command line) that it couldn't find some symbols when loading the plugin. Not sure what to do except try another jdk (like sun's ). I appear to have the latest stable version of the blackdown jdk... Ryan [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
Re: [gentoo-user] hostname
> > P.S.) Does anyone want to spread any light in why profile.env and > csh.env don't retrieve the hostname from /etc/hostname? That would > make sense to me! Well, they sort of do get their value form /etc/hostname. When /etc/init.d/hostname gets run when your system boots up, it sets /etc/env.d/01hostname and when you run "env-update" every now and then, that puts it in your profile.env and csh.env files. ryan [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
Re: [gentoo-user] hostname
Put your hostname in the file: /etc/hostname then it *should* get set on boot by /etc/init.d/hostname If that doesn't work, check to make sure that hostname is in your /etc/runlevels/boot directory. Finally, if it's not there, you should be able to add it by doing: rc-update add hostname boot ryan [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > hostname blah > > but after restart the host name is lost... how to preserve it after > restart... > -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
