This is currently not available in kde under Gentoo. Not completely true-- someone has taken the opportunity to practice their ebuild writing skills, so there is a proposed ebuild on bugs.gentoo.org (b.g.o), found by searching ALL knetworkconf: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=19413 While putting an unofficial build in one's overlay is also not 'simple' if you've never done it before, 1) it's a useful skill to have if you're a Gentoo user; and 2) it's easier than building from source for what is likely a complex build (suggested by the fact that no one has it but knoppix). So while there are likely to be problems, at least you can also contribute to the bug so that 1) you might get help/fixes if the ebuild doesn't emerge and 2) any problems with the ebuild get fixed faster, paving the way to get the ebuild into Portage that much sooner. You probably want to have a look at the following references: Adding unofficial ebuilds (Gentoo docs) http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?part=3chap=5#doc_chap2 HOW-TO Installing 3rd party ebuilds (gentoo-wiki.com) http://www.gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Installing_3rd_Party_Ebuilds HTH, Holly -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

I'd have to look it up, but iirc the solution has to do with uninstalling either gif or libungif and the program that's being a problem about it, then reinstalling the apps in the correct order. But depending on your usage patterns, perhaps you don't even need to worry about this *at this minute*. If the program or programs that depend on the gif/libungif circle are not mission critical for you atm (or you aren't using it because you're solving the other issues), then put the issue on the back burner for now. Basically, you seem to be upset because Portage is having a fit when you try to update world. Not because a program is broken, or because you can't do some specific task (because a program is broken). If that is a correct assessment of the situation, then have some perspective. You don't have to update world every day, or even every month. So don't. If things work OK for what you need them to do, then the fact that you can't update easily right now is *not a problem*. Certainly not one needing a reinstall of the entire system. If something specific is broken due to the gif/libungif issue, then tell us what that is. It may be that gif/libungif needs to be sorted out to fix whatever is broken, but we can cross that bridge when we come to it. It's really not a big deal. Relax.

I am not sure about what information to include, so please tell me what I need to post. I've experienced many errors in attempting to compile Beagle (before I eventually succeeded), but not this one. What I do know is that 1) beagle needs very specific compile order and dependency versions to compile successfully, and 2) pango-sharp does not exist in the Portage tree, or the gentopia overlay (so why you're getting a pango error I don't know, but it seems a trifle odd). The best sources of information for how to compile Beagle are http://www.beagle-project.org/Gentoo_Installation and http://www.gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Beagle Using these instructions, I was able to build Beagle successfully. The only inaccuracy in the Wiki is that Beagle needs wv-1.0.3-r1 specifically; it will not compile against a lower version, or the current 1.2.2 version (there's a bug on b.g.o to that effect, and I just spent two days confirming it before I found it). So as long as you mask wv-1.0.3-r1, you should be good to go. But other than that, if you follow the instructions, it should work. It was a real pain to get installed, though; I will say that. However, it is pretty cool. HTH for a start, Holly -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

[gentoo-user] some i/o errors are making my portage useless!

Tried it again this morning - no luck. Thought I'd reboot, and on boot-up I get a message telling me that my /dev/sda4 filesystem, which is where my /usr is mounted, contains errors. So as Gentoo is trying to repair it, I hear periodic beeps coming from inside my PC. Finally, the PC boots. I run emerge sync, and again - same errors that I posted above. But this time, I hear beeps from inside my PC even as emerge is running trying to complete syncing. The sync will not complete successfully, so I cannot even use portage until I get a successful sync (right?). Do I have a problem with my hardware in this case, or is it something software related? I am using two big old Seagate SCSI drives (47 GB each), with Adaptec drivers. My partition table is as follows, if it helps resolve this: /dev/sda1 -- /boot (200MB) /dev/sda2 -- SWAP (2GB) /dev/sda3 -- / (25GB) /dev/sda4 -- /usr (20GB) /dev/sdb1 -- /home (47GB) I am running an Intel x86-based system.

[gentoo-user] Begging For Help With ALSA and Lirc
I had MythTV 0.18 running just fine on a Gentoo 2.6.11-r6 kernel built with genkernel. Then I upgraded the hardware to a Athlon 2800 XP processor running on an Asus motherboard with an Nvidia2 chipset and upgraded the kernel to 2.6.13-r5 from Gentoo sources using genkernel. The system has a PVR-250 and I added a pcHDTV-3000 card. I mention this card in case there's some known conflicts. I have used the module-rebuild and modules-update tools to recompile those modules that needed to be against the new kernel. The specific modules were nvidia-kernel, ivtv, and svgalib. I also reemerged lirc as that wasn't included in the module-rebuild tool. But the two things I can't seem to get working are ALSA and lirc. My sound card is an Audigy that uses the emu10k1 driver. Following the Gentoo ALSA guide (http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/alsa-guide.xml), I've tried both the kernel and alsa-driver method. The card is detected. All the 'cat /proc/asound' stuff as described in the Issues section of the guide produces expected results. All my volume levels are up and unmuted in 'alsamixer'. Yet I get no sound. What else might I check? What should I delete to be sure all ALSA stuff is gone so I can try again from scratch? Any other ideas on how to get this working? This same card was working before my upgrades. And lirc won't load. I get these errors when inserting the module: tv mythtv # modprobe lirc_dev FATAL: Error inserting lirc_dev (/lib/modules/2.6.13-gentoo-r5/misc/lirc_dev.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg) tv mythtv # modprobe lirc_i2c WARNING: Error inserting lirc_dev (/lib/modules/2.6.13-gentoo-r5/misc/lirc_dev.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg) FATAL: Error inserting lirc_i2c (/lib/modules/2.6.13-gentoo-r5/misc/lirc_i2c.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg) Any ideas on how to get this working as well? And the modules.conf items used to be in /etc/modules.d/ivtv but now the new ivtv doesn't need its lines as it autodetects. So where should I put the lirc lines? Leave them where they are? Create a /etc/modules.d/lirc? Thanks for any help. I've Googled and experimented for over a week now but can't get these two issues resolve.

Getting the obvious out of the way first, do you have free space on /usr/portage? Neil - I doubt that could be a problem. I have 20 GB allocated to /usr partition alone! I think portage couldn't have filled all that up - I have had no problems of the sort on other machines, where my /usr partition was much smaller.

Re: [gentoo-user] USB mobile phone connection..
I've had another look at the problem, and at last can report
a bit of success - at least I think I have bracketed the problem...
I started by enabling the USB debug messages in the kernel
(CONFIG_USB_DEBUG) to see if that shed any light on what was
happening, but it just produced a lot of stuff like:
usb 1-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 2
uhci_hcd :00:07.2: uhci_result_control: failed with status 44

De
v=0, PID=e1(OUT) (buf=)
which didn't enlighten me very much.
So I then decided to try something fairly radical and booted a ubuntu live
CD which I picked up at a recent show in a different PC, and used
'apt-get install' to add all the pre-requisite packages and cvs to
download the latest version of moto4lin.
The first interesting thing that I learned was that the error messages I was
getting on connection of the phone are not specific to gentoo - I get exactly
the same messages from ubuntu:
usb 1-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 2
usb 1-2: device descriptor read/64, error -71
usb 1-2: device descriptor read/64, error -71
usb 1-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 3
usb 1-2: device descriptor read/64, error -71
cdc_acm 1-2:1.0: ttyACM0: USB ACM device
usbcore: registered new driver cdc_acm
drivers/usb/class/cdc-acm.c: v0.23:USB Abstract Control Model driver for USB
modems and ISDN adapters
This did produce the '/dev/ttyACM0' device file which you are seeing (rather
than the /dev/usb/acm/0 I am seeing on gentoo). It took me several attempts
before I found a configuration and sequence that worked, but eventually managed
to get the phone recognised in P2K mode and I successfully transfered all
accessible files from the phone onto my disk.
So now I know that my phone and cable are good, and just need track down
which difference between these systems is causing my problem with gentoo.
Havn't worked out yet where the phonebook or SMS inbox/outbox (two items
I really wanted to be able to archive from the phone) are stored.
Let me know if you have any suggestions.

No problem -- I'm a software tester in Real Life (tm), so stuff like
this bugs the crap out of me. I have a tendency to get a hold of a
problem, and beat it into the ground sometimes, and this is one of
those things that drives me absolutely crazy: inconsistent behaviour
of software is _extremely_ annoying and frustrating - especially when
_I'm_ the one with the works for me response, but I can't figure out
what I did (if anything) to solve the problem. sigh
Anyway... I'm not convinced that the problem's in the kernel. If it
was, then anybody with the same kernel would run into the same
problem(s)...
...and, following that logic, I started digging through the code for
moto4lin, trying to see if there was anything spectacularly obvious
that _might_ be causing the behaviour we're seeing. In so doing, I
_think_ I _might_ have found a typo in moto_ui/p2kproc.cpp, on line
729... here's the function where that line appears:
snip
// Connect to phone.
int P2kProc::drv_connect()
{
FUNC(drv_connect);
int ph=drv_findPhone();
if (ph==PHONE_NONE) RAISE(no phone)
if (ph==PHONE_AT) drv_switchP2K();

t=time(NULL);
while ((time(NULL)-t5) (ph!=PHONE_P2K))
{
usb_find_devices();
ph=drv_findPhone();
usleep(1);
}
if (ph!=PHONE_P2K) return(-1);
return(drv_openPhone());
}
/snip
What's got me thinking there's a typo are the following two lines:
if (ph==PHONE_NONE) RAISE(no phone)
if (ph==PHONE_AT) drv_switchP2K();
This looks to me like if there's no phone, an error is spit out (to
the terminal, if you started moto4lin from there), then it checks to
see if the phone's in AT mode, and then it tries to switch it to P2K
mode. The problem here is that the switch to P2K will never be
reached, because there's a missing semi-colon at the end of the first
line, which means that if there's no phone _and_ it's in AT mode, then
it'll do the switch... which makes little to no sense to me, if I'm
reading this correctly...
...it might be worth trying out, though, to see if adding a semi-colon
here would help, so that

[gentoo-user] changing Apache installation
Hello, all. I've tried to install Template Toolkit, Apache2::Template under Apache2, mod_perl2 and am having, no suprise, issues. Though this may be possible, I'm not up to it. So, rather than try to make this work, I just want to unmerge cleanly all apache/mod_perl/TT stuff on my machine, including leftover configs. And then re-install apache 1.x, or whatever. Any pointers to make this go smoothly? I'm thinking something like CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK=-* emerge -Cv apache modperl or something similar... is this possible, or do I have to hunt peck for the old configs, particularly if I've had an old apache 1.x install on here before and didn't try to clean the configs?

Re: [gentoo-user] UDEV doesn't respect GROUPS directive for dvd/hdc
Martin Jürgens wrote:
Hi everyone,
I'm having some trouble with the following udev rule for my dvdrw drive:
KERNEL==hdc, NAME=hdc, GROUP=dvdrw, MODE=0660
I placed it in /etc/udev/rules.d/10-udev.rules and applied it using
udevstart.The result is the following device node:
brw-rw 1 root root 22, 0 3. Nov 16:46 /dev/hdc
Well besides the fact I'm using udev-071, I don't have a group dvdrw,
so I used a group that I do have. I added this at the beginning of my
10-udev.rules:
KERNEL==hdb, NAME=fooey, GROUP=rpc, MODE=0660
This gave me /dev/fooey, but with the wrong group (was cdrom). I
found I had to comment out the following 2 lines from 50-udev.rules to
get it to work correctly:
# all block devices
#SUBSYSTEM==block, GROUP=disk
...
#ENV{ID_CDROM}==?*, SYMLINK+=cdrom%e, GROUP=cdrom
With that, I got the correct group.
So it seems that SUBSYSTEM or ENV rules that appear later can override
the group that you specify. This should help you track down the problem.
However, you might want to try udev-071, followed by an etc-update (be
sure to accept any changes to 50-udev.rules). My DVD+/-RW device ends
up in group cdrom automatically, so you would only need to add the
appropriate users to that group.
HTH,

I do see the card: tv mythtv # cat /proc/asound/cards 0 [Audigy ]: Audigy - Audigy 1 [SB0090] Audigy 1 [SB0090] (rev.3, serial:0x511102) at 0x9400, irq 22 Following the Gentoo ALSA guide (http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/alsa-guide.xml), I've tried both the kernel and alsa-driver method. I usually prefer the kernel method except there is brad new hardware so the external drivers are more recent than the kernel drivers. Yes, I started with the kernel method as recommended in the guide. When that didn't work I tried the alsa-driver method. Neither has worked for me yet. The card is detected. All the 'cat /proc/asound' stuff as described in the Issues section of the guide produces expected results. All my volume levels are up and unmuted in 'alsamixer'. Yet I get no sound. I guess the card is already occupied by an soundserver like arts (KDE) or esound (Gnome). Good guess. However I only have iceWM on this box and as far as I know, there is no sound server. I'd try artsshell -q terminate starting xmms, setting my card in the preferences and see if it plays an audio file. I tried this and switched to the ALSA driver. I saw three devices listed so I just decided to try the standard PCM Playback (hw:0,0) device. Still no sound but at least I had a constant sound source. Then I disconnected from my stereo system and just ran standard computer speakers that I knew were working. After trying all the various jacks on the back of the sound card, SUCCESS!!! I found one that was outputting sound. This is an old Audigy card where all the jacks look the same. Oh sure, there's some small graphic etched into the metal by each jack but my old eyes can't see them. None of the newer colored markings on the actual jacks. So anyway, I must have some issue with my stereo system to sort out. But at least I know the box is producing sound. Thank you very much for your ideas. It got me thinking in a new way.

Re: [gentoo-user] Replacement for qpkg... please!?!?

All fine and dandy, but running revdep-rebuild again afterward gives the same thing. I've done this about 4 times in a row. Perhaps OO2.0 isn't handling its libraries correctly. Or maybe an ebuild error? If you have emerged the binary package, this is normal, because the binary version sticks private versions of all libraries and even python in the openoffice directory, where it can't be found without setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH in the environment. If you did merge the binary, update /etc/make.conf to set SEARCH_DIRS_MASK=/usr/lib/openoffice. -Richard Thank you sir! Worked like a charm! I just had to use lib32 instead of lib since I'm on amd64, but still worked perfectly! Thanks! -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
Re: [gentoo-user] some i/o errors are making my portage useless!

First, I would back up all your data immediately. You have filesystem corruption or hardware failure. And if you have hardware failure, you probably also have filesystem corruption. If you have space somewhere, boot with a livecd, and copy everything (except /usr/portage) to another place. Then, recreate the filesystem, and copy it back. If this works, and the errors cease, you're probably OK. If not, you need to buy a new disk pgpgF2cGyf7RP.pgp Description: PGP signature

Re: [gentoo-user] Using tar to backup my system

There's plenty of other backup solutions out there that would work better than this scheme. If you have a server and space for the file, rsync would even be a better solution. I'm going to try something I found on the Gentoo Wiki: # emerge netcat Remote machine runs # nc -l -p 1 image.gz Machine I'm backing up: # dd if=/dev/hda1 | gzip | nc -w 5 remote_ip 1 What do you think? I'm a bit puzzled by rsync at the moment so this seems to be a simple short term fix. Thanks, Richard -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
