[gentoo-user] decent browser?
Howdy all, I was having problems with Galeon and dependencies on mozilla 1.4 and portage wanting to upgrade me to mozilla 1.4. So, I got off the merry-go-round and emerge'd galeon-cvs from breakmygentoo.net. Ugh. If this is the future of galeon, then I need to find a new browser. After having to run gconf-editor to get my middle-mouse button paste functionality back, I surfed around to get a feel for the new Galeon. I don't know if it's just me, but it's slow as all get out. I had Mozilla up in another window and it would load the same page 5-7 seconds (yes, I said seconds) faster than Galeon. So, I was wondering if people could recommend some good browsers. I'm running fluxbox, so I don't need anything fancy. The only reason I was running Galeon was because I really, really dig the tabs and the google, freshmeat and dictionary quickstart links (whatever the heck you call those).

Howdy all, Ever since mozilla-1.4 came out, I've been having problems trying to emerge -vuUD world. It seemed that galeon only wanted to play with mozilla 1.3.

[gentoo-user] rhythmbox weirdness
Howdy all, I'm running rhythmbox that I got from breakmygentoo.net. After getting it to build (I had to specify USE=gnome when I built gst-plugins) I fired it up the first time and it looked good. I have about 4 gigs of unsorted mp3s and I was using rhythmbox to read the id3 tags and then I was moving the files around. Anyway, when I first started, it took a few minutes to sort all the mp3s into albums. Then, after I had moved a few albums into their own directories, I stopped rhythmbox. Now I can't start it up again. What happens is the rhythmbox window is displayed, but then it stops refreshing. If you move it around or cover it up, it's blanks it out and it never seems to recover from this. I get buckets of errors in my terminal, the most important of them seems to be: There is a disparity between the internal view of the GtkTreeView, and the GtkTreeModel. This generally means that the model has changed without letting the view know. Any display from now on is likely to be incorrect. Has anyone dealt with this already? Logging out and back in doesn't seem to do anything. I also can't seem to find where rhythmbox is writing the file, telling it which library to open. I have a feeling that if I were to start it up without an mp3 library that it would work.

From what I've seen, most Gentoo people just build things that they _really_ need (like reiserfs, scsi support, raid and such) right into the kernel and not as modules. 2) Is there a way to search the portage tree for a paticular program? In this case it would be nifty if I could search for mkinitrd even if it is in a package that doesn't have the name in its title. Try emerge search --searchdesc string just on the off chance that it's in the description of the package.

[gentoo-user] Slightly OT: Apache and ProxyPassReverse
This isn't really Gentoo related, but my suspicion is that someone here has seen this and knows the right way to do it. Here's the deal, I have installed Linux (not Gentoo, sadly) on my Sega Dreamcast and I compiled the ghttpd webserver on it. It also has a broadband adapter in it, so I want to serve out pages from it (just as a lark). BUT, I'd like to front-end this server with an Apache webserver running on Gentoo. I think what I need to do this is the ProxyPassReverse directive in Apache. What I want to have happen is that whenever anyone goes to http://www.nerddiary.org/dreamcast that it instead displays content from the Dreamcast (running on a private IP, let's say 10.1.1.1). I don't want to do redirection, because I don't want the outside world to really touch the Dreamcast box (except to see it's web content forwarded to them by the Gentoo box). To accomplish this, I did the following: 1) I uncommented the lines relating to mod_proxy in /etc/apache/conf/commonapache.conf 2) In my Vhost.conf, I have this for nerddiary.org VirtualHost www.nerddiary.org ... ProxyRequests on ProxyPassReverse /dreamcast http://10.1.1.1/ /VirtualHost 3) Restarted Apache. However, when I got to http://www.nerddiary.org/dreamcast, I get a 404. I must be missing something?

I played a game against a user on my network (he was on a windows laptop) and it was able to connect to his game using the udp battle.net method. However, it was slow as all get out. Crud. Anyone gotten Starcraft to run smooth on Gentoo?

What if you change your dpi setting and leave alone your font size? Ack! Of course. I can't believe I didn't think of this. But, the problem was actually happening when I switched from dual-headed mode to just a single monitor. I thought it was when I was rebooting, but I think that was a coincidence. I have now edited both my XF86Config files (for merged and normal) and set the DisplaySize in there. Everything looks great.

[gentoo-user] galeon font-size weirdness
Well, I finally decided to post this problem (even though it makes it sound like I'm crazy). Here's the deal. A few weeks/months ago after doing loads of emerges, I noticed that when I started galeon that all web pages had wicked tiny text. To fix it, I just went into Settings-Preferences-Rendering-Fonts/Colors and changed the Min. Size from 14 (or so) to 29. That made everything look normal. Now.. here's the weird thing. If I log out of X and log back in and start galeon, my friggin' text is gigantic. Then I have to go back into Fonts and change the min. size back to 14 and it looks normal (normal, that is, until I log out of X and back in again). I'm sure it's something silly but I can't peg it.

[gentoo-user] metalog and iptables
Howdy all, I'm tired of my iptables logs filling up my dmesg. I see that there is a --log-level option in iptables, but I'm not sure if this will help. I believe I've read somewhere that iptables logs as kernel facility unless you recompile it. What I'd like to do is have my iptables logs only go to a firewall directory. To that end, I've done this. Before my DROP or REJECTS on my INPUT chain, I have: iptables -A INPUT -j LOG --log-prefix FW_INPUT Before my DROP or REJECTS on my OUTPUT chain, I have: iptables -A OUTPUT -j LOG --log-prefix FW_OUTPUT In my metalog.conf, I have: Firewall messages : regex = (FW_INPUT|FW_OUTPUT) logdir = /var/log/firewall This does indeed put my iptables logs in /var/log/firewall, but I don't want them to also go to my dmesg. Is this possible/easy? -- Shane Hickey : Nerd http://www.nerddiary.org GPG KeyID: 777CBF3F Key fingerprint: 254F B2AC 9939 C715 278C DA95 4109 9F69 777C BF3F Listening to: - 04 - names of trees -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
[gentoo-user] problem building PHP-4.3.1 (no fork?)
Howdy all, I just brought up a new gentoo box and I'm having a problem getting php emerged. Here's the error I get during the ./configure of php. checking whether to enable pcntl support... yes checking for fork... no configure: error: pcntl: fork() not supported by this platform Any ideas?

[gentoo-user] Fluxbox and gconfd
Howdy all, I recently switched from Gnome to Fluxbox and I'm loving it. However, I'm still painfully addicted to evolution, gnome-terminal and galeon, so I find myself running these in Fluxbox. The problem is, whenever I start a gnome app I get CORBA errors. However, if I kill gconfd-1 then I'm fine. The errors look like this: There was an error loading config from /apps/gnome-terminal/global. (Configuration server couldn't be contacted: CORBA error: IDL:omg.org/CORBA/BAD_OPERATION:1.0) There was an error loading config from /apps/gnome-terminal/keybindings. (Configuration server couldn't be contacted: CORBA error: IDL:omg.org/CORBA/BAD_OPERATION:1.0) There was an error loading config from /apps/gnome-terminal/profiles/Default. (Configuration server couldn't be contacted: CORBA error: IDL:omg.org/CORBA/BAD_OPERATION:1.0) I'm not sure what's starting gconfd-1, but I obviously don't need (since the apps seem to run fine after I kill it). Can someone clue me in to what is starting this... and why?

Re: [gentoo-user] Cuecat?
This probably doesn't address your immediate problem, but when I read
your post I remember a guy who used to post to inet-access all the time
and had a perl cuecat decoder .sig.
Some quick searching found the following:
#!/usr/bin/perl -n
printf Serial: %s Type: %s Code: %s\n,
map {
tr/a-zA-Z0-9+-/ -_/;
$_ = unpack 'u', chr(32 + length()*3/4) . $_;
s/\0+$//;
$_ ^= C x length;
} /\.([^.]+)/g;
