[gentoo-user] New Printer
Hello! I want to buy a new printer and I'm sure... I found a cheap Epson printer (Stylus C66) but I cannot find info in the www.linuxprinting.org. Works it good? The the others model (C46,C60,C61,C62,C70,C80) works perfectly and the same models (C63,C64,C83,C84) work mostly. Someone uses that models or knows if the driver are compatible with this model?

I have a source for the MiniPCI version of these cards in the Philippines; we use the Prism GT Javelin chipset boards as an OEM module in our product. The company makes both Javelin and Frisbee based boards, as well as boards based on the Connexant/Intersil WorldRadio chipset. Some others can be made to work with the windows driver via the NDIS wrapper, but I have never tried this. I have successfully run a Broadcom BCM94306MP chipset using the NDIS wrapper driver. It was a PITA, used closed-source drivers and performed poorly. Avoid Broadcom's cards! I ended up yanking this board out of my laptop and replacing it with an Atheros CM9 reference design board. That is soon to be replaced with a Connexant/Intersil ISL3886 (Javelin) based card. Unfortunately, manufacturers change chipsets frequently, sometimes without even updating the version number of the product, so good luck! According to the local FAE for Connexant/Intersil products, the ISL3880 and ISL3886 (PRISM GT Frisbee and Javelin, respectively) are in full production and have not yet reached maturity, so they won't be end-of-lifed any time soon. The ISL3890 (Duette) chipset is in it's maturity phase, and is thus not recommended for new designs. The WorldRadio (PRISM GT Crossbow) chipset is also not slated for discontinuation any time soon. An important thing to note about the Intersil chipsets is the amount of available RAM on the MAC. The newer Javelin chipset only has 512Kb of SRAM on the MAC chip, so it require what Intersil calls a split MAC driver, where some of the higher-level MAC functions reside in system SRAM. The older Frisbee version of the PRISM GT chipset has 2Mb of on-MAC SRAM. Our product uses [vomit] Windows CE, so I'm not sure about split-MAC drivers for Linux. I'm sure there's some mention of it at prism54.org, but I won't be able to check it out until lunch... Check out: http://prism54.org/supported_cards.php http://www.linux-wlan.org/docs/wlan_adapters.html.gz Amusingly enough, when Xterasys end-of-lifed the XG600 (which is a Frisbee-based MiniPCI WLAN card) that we were using in our product, that 2nd link is the one we used to locate another one! We settled on a model from Easix. They don't have any US distributors, hence my contact above. One thing to note, if you're looking to change the MiniPCI card in your laptop, be careful about what form factor it supports. Most laptops support some flavor of Type III ... Caution is due because Type IIIa cards are longer in the Y dimension than Type IIIb cards. Check the type before you sink any $$ into a card! Dave PS - UPDATE - Looked on Prism54.org and it looks like the Linux drivers do NOT support the so-called Split-MAC or Soft MAC cards. So stick with the Frisbee-based versions! The web site gives a somewhat accurate, albeit limited, assessment of the issue. The CARD manufacturers are designing the Frisbee chipset out of their products because it's about $1.50 more expensive in volume. So when they make 150,000 cards, that adds up to a chunk of change. Connexant/Intersil just makes the chipset, and they report they will continue to support and manufacture the frisbee chipset.

[gentoo-user] Kile dependencies after upgrading to kde 3.4
Hi everybody Finally I couldn't for kde 3.4 to be in the stable branch and I upgraded. No serious problem until I tried to emerge --update --deep --newuse world --verbose (the way I always upgrade my system). When I tried to emerge that way, it replied that kile-1.7.1 had some dependencies, and since I thought it would be because it's a before-kde-3.4 version I upgraded to the -unstable- 1.8_beta2. The problem is that when I tried again to emerge world it replied the following: Calculating world dependencies \ !!! All ebuilds that could satisfy ~kde-base/kdebase-3.4.0 have been masked. !!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request: - kde-base/kdebase-3.4.0 (masked by: ~x86 keyword) For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man page or section 2.2 Software Availability in the Gentoo Handbook. !!!(dependency required by kde-base/kdegraphics-3.4.0 [ebuild]) !!! Problem with ebuild app-editors/kile-1.8_beta2 !!! Possibly a DEPEND/*DEPEND problem. !!! Depgraph creation failed. AFAIK kdebase and kdegraphics correspond to the old way to emerge kde, isn't it? What's the problem, then? Are kile dependencies wrong? Should I emerge/configure something I missed? Is there any workaround for this?

Thanks to Richard, Walter, Ralph and Brett for your help so far. I'm working from these two documents: http://gentoo-wiki.com/index.php?title=HOWTO_Share_Directories_via_NFS http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/NFS-HOWTO/server.html There are 4 machines on our home network that are involved in this problem: Dragonfly - Gentoo music server Flash - Gentoo workstation Godzilla - FC2 workstation Christmas - FC2 workstation Dragonfly used to be FC2. The /MusicLib directory could be mounted on all the other machines. Since converting Dragonfly to Gentoo we have not been able to mount it. As of this morning the setup on Dragonfly looks like this: # /etc/exports: NFS file systems being exported. See exports(5). #/MusicLib *(ro) /MusicLib 192.168.1.55(ro,sync,no_root_squash) 192.168.1.29(ro,sync,no_root_squash) 192.168.1.51(ro,sync,no_root_squash) The line commented out above was all that was required to allow MusicLib to be mounted when Dragonfly was running FC2. That hasn't worked under Gentoo, nor has the currently more complicated line shown above. Currently Dragonfly says it's exporting: dragonfly ~ # exportfs /MusicLib Dragonfly /MusicLib Flash /MusicLib Godzilla dragonfly ~ # Results when trying to mount from Flash (Gentoo): fstab has: dragonfly:/MusicLib /home/mark/MusicLib nfs noauto,user,ro,_netdev 0 0 flash ~ $ mount MusicLib/ mount: dragonfly:/MusicLib failed, reason given by server: No such file or directory flash ~ $ Results when trying to mount from Godzilla (FC2): fstab has: dragonfly:/MusicLib /mnt/MusicLib nfs noauto,user,ro,_netdev,proto=udp0 0 [EMAIL PROTECTED] mark]$ mount /mnt/MusicLib/ mount to NFS server 'dragonfly' failed: server is down. [EMAIL PROTECTED] mark]$ Results when trying to mount /MusicLib on Dragonfly itself is identical to Flash. Both are Gentoo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ mount NFStest/ mount: dragonfly:/MusicLib failed, reason given by server: No such file or directory [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ So the Gentoo machines are consistent. As an NFS client they both say MusicLib is not exported, but according to exportfs on Dragonfly it is. The FC2 machines says that the server is down. I've tried with both the proto=udp in and out. I hope this focuses the problem a bit better. Thanks in advance, Mark -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Yes, this is a potential problem although I thought I'd made them the same on this machine under Gentoo as when it ran FC2. I'll double check. 2. Server down implies it can't find the server so it gives up and then gives you the error about not mounting the file or no such file. It's not a consistent message though. It's 'server down' when coming from the FC boxes but 'no such file or directory' when coming from my other Gentoo boxes. I found a couple of posts on the web saying that different distros give different messages for the same problem so this may be one problem with different messages. Anyway, my Gentoo boxes cannot mount so clearly I'm missing something. 3. What about the comment someone had from the FC list about FC2 or 3 breaking something. I tried that on the FC2 machine but it didn't help. I've also rebuilt the kernel a couple of times to make sure the NFS options on the Gentoo NFS Wiki were exactly right. I tried the kernel with NFS over TCP checked and unchecked. Always the same results. I'm stumped, but I also believe this is a problem that the community here can get me through so I'll jsut keep plugging away.

[gentoo-user] Mplayer and Framebuffer
Hey guys. I just re-compiled a new system from scratch for the first time using 2.6 instead of 2.4 and I've been very pleased so far. I have one problem though: when I was using 2.4 I was able to use mplayer to play video directly to the console via framebuffer (/dev/fb0) instead of svgalib, but when I do so with 2.6, while /dev/fb0 exists and while I have it working with bootsplash just fine, when I run mplayer on /dev/fb0, I crash the display and have to ssh into the machine from another computer. Even after killing the mplayer process, video remains non-functional. I tried shutting down the computer (init 0) from an ssh'd terminal, but coming back into the room a few minutes later revealed that the machine would not shut down and so I had to push the button manually (which means yucky filesystem scans...) Anybody have any ideas as to how I can get this to work? I suppose it's not a big deal, but I'd still like to get this working if I can. I'm also planning on giving XDirectFB a try one of these days, so hopefully I won't have the same problems... :( Thanks in advance. James -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Well, I'd took a look at http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/virt-mail-howto.xml but it's a little bit confusing since I had not ever did anything like that and that guide spoke about things I not sure I need, like SSL. So, what I want is to know what I really need to make my server catch all messages incoming to the domains I'll specify at postfix configuration, and also, how to specify that? Well, the first thing to figure out is if you want to use mbox or maildir style mailboxes. Then set up your postfix main.cf config just like they show you in the virtual mail howto on Gentoo.org. Then, if you need pop or imap, emerge something like uw-imap, courier-imap, or dovecot to handle that. The configuration is quite easy.

[gentoo-user] xscreensaver-demo locks up laptop
Hello once again, this is a wierd one - xscreensaver-demo locks up my laptop (for certain screensavers only) but the actual screensaver works fine. eg, I see a working screensaver which is, say, BioF, so I unlock the screen, log in and then go to xscreensaver-demo, and the whole laptop locks up (because BioF is automatically selected). Can't even ping it. But for others, say anemone, it all works fine. I don't quite know what to do next, given that I can't do anything until I reboot, which is too late to see whats going on...

I don't think I compiled any of the in-kernel tuner drivers (like ivtv.) What I did do was compile all of the video stuff as modules.

Since I (strangely enough) have money in my wallet, are there any wireless cards that are natively supported in Gentoo? If you have 22mbps hardware, you want the DWL-520+ (Same chipset, PCI version). Its 'natively supported' (emerge acx100), but you do need an initial Internet connection to download the driver. You could download it somewhere else and put it on a CD/Floppy, of course. But don't pull out that wallet yet! genstef, the Gentoo dev that maintains the acx100 package (which also provides a kernel module for your wireless device, acx_usb) wants you to contact him.

All right, you wanted me to email you. That's been done. Now, to setup my hardware, I think I'll do this. I've got one working Gentoo install right now, and then I've got my main computer. This is what I'll do: 1. emerge --fetchonly acx_usb acx100 on my working Gentoo system to download the sources. 2. emerge --pretend acx_usb acx100 to get a file listing of the ACX packages. 3. Copy the ACX packages to my USB key, and then move them to my distfiles directory on my wireless machine. 4. emerge acx_usb acx100 on the wireless machine. 5. Continue with Gentoo installation. If I copy over all the distfiles from the working machine as well as the stage1-x86 and Portage tarballs (which I can download in Windows), then I can theoretically do a stage1 install without my wireless connection, which will make me happy.
