It should be fairly simple to generate such a list. You can generate
a list of all regular files that are owned by an installed package
with something like:
cd /var/db/pkg; find . -name CONTENTS -exec cat {} \; | grep ^obj |
awk '{print $2}' | sort
And then a list of all regular files on your system with:
find / -type f | grep -v -e "^/home" -e "^/tmp" -e "^/var/db" -e
"^/var/tmp" | sort
Then you just have to diff the two lists to find things that are not
owned by a package...

[gentoo-user] opengl brightness setting
Does anyone know if there is somewhere I can configure opengl settings? All my opengl applications are extremely dark and I have to chnage setings just for those apps. For example mplayer runs most reliably on my system with opengl except I am constantly having to adjust the brightness/contrast. Same with Unreal Tournament. Window or fullscreen make no diference its the rendering as far as I can tell. nvidia-settings has an option to adjust xv overlays and some other nifty things but not those options.

I have a record for ns.espersunited.com in my DNS setup on my server box.

When I try to upgrade to the latest stable version of CUPS, portage trys to drag in X windows. I'm not sure if this is caused by the changes happening in preparation for the new version of xorg, or perhaps changes in the cups ebuild, which has seen some changes in USE variables.

One of the first things that should be done to help would be adjust the settings in Azureus for your specific up/dl speeds. This is a pretty good guide to get started on that. http://azureus.aelitis.com/wiki/index.php/Good_settings The other thing I would recommend doing is using the plugin "Auto Speed". This plugin will automatically adjust your dl & ul speeds according to the network latency. Note, If your router blocks or rejects ICMP then you will not be able to use the plugin.

I believe that his problem are with saturation of his broadband connection, in which case he'd get the same problem even if Azureus was running on a different PC from his web-browser. Matthias wants to give p2p maximum bandwidth & have the router sort it out so that he gets no latency on other connections - this is what traffic-shaping does.

And because i want to at least partially understand what i'm doing i would prefer a simple and clean setup. I haven't used it yet, but my understanding of traffic-shaping is that it's exactly what you want. I believe that other quality-of-service mechanisms may require applications to be QoS aware (setting a QoS bit in the packet header). You're absolutely right in that reducing the bandwidth of the p2p app isn't the ideal way to achieve what you want - I find latency in browsing & surfing with BitTorrent consuming only 60% - 70% of my upload - it doesn't help that other peers are continually making requests of you. If you lower the bandwidth consumption in Azureous then you have to remember to up it again when you go to bed - traffic shaping WILL allow you to permanently maximise your p2p bandwidth, with the ROUTER reducing it only when your priority services send packets. I know that in principle the neccessairy steps to do what i wannt can be found in the 'Packet Shaping HOWTO'. By the way, there are many different packet shedulers in the kernel - and the HOWTO only explains the HTP-scheduler. What about the other schedulers - can they be usefull for my purposes too - and if yes, how can they be configured and used ? No idea. I hope you'll give us feedback when you've discovered more.

Re: [gentoo-user] iptables / ipp2p
Try this : emerge -s ipp2p emerge show you your ipp2p module. in fact iptables is just command line utility to set rules, modules are not part of iptables itself, modules for iptables are extra module or kernel inside module.

Re: [gentoo-user] Software RAID Advice Needed
[EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: If a disk fails, your system would likely crash (due to the swap device), but would reboot in a degraded mode (no swap, slow performance, etc). You could avoid that by not using RAID for swap. Instead, use four separate swap partitions, one on each drive. As long as they all have the same priority, the kernel will share swap duties between them equally. If you make more swap partitions on more physical drives with the same priority, it is the same as swap on raid0: system strips swap across drives. And if some drive crashes and swap partition on that drive has been used, very probably system crashes too. But then reboots at least with remaining swap partitions... Yes, although there's a posibility of an 'endless crash/reboot' scenereo here, if the errors are 'soft' (e.g. not drive just vanishing). For instance, a few bad sectors develop on one of your swap partitions, the kernel can't read them, and panic/reboots. The system comes back up, the same swaps are used, and it happens again, over and over until you edit the bad partition out of the fstab. In a redundant RAID situation, I'm presuming that a bad sector or two would result in the RAID driver detaching the bad drive, and chugging along in degraded mode, where if this happened in a distrubuted swap situation, it's already 'too late', since the sectors are lost and the kernel would probably panic. There's no real benefit to using RAID for swap, unless you are limited on RAM and use swap a lot, when RAID0 may help. There is some benefit, if you use raid1 for swap. In such a case even drive failure does not cause system crash, because swap space is mirrored too. But raid1 slightly degrades swap performance... This is exactly why I'm doing RAID1 on swap. If one drive goes poof, my system stays up. Based on what this server is going to do, it should rarely use much swap, so swap performance isn't a priority for me. Plus, as you say, I believe the performance hit on swap writes (reads should actually be faster) should wind up being only a bit slower than if you were swapping to a single drive. - Jim -- +---+ | Jim Burwell - Sr. Systems/Network/Security Engineer, JSBC | +---+ | "I never let my schooling get in the way of my education." - Mark Twain | | "UNIX was never designed to keep people from doing stupid things, because | | that policy would also keep them from doing clever things." - Doug Gwyn | | "Cool is only three letters away from Fool" - Mike Muir, Suicyco | | "..Government in its best state is but a necessary evil; in its worst | | state an intolerable one.." - Thomas Paine, "Common Sense" (1776)| +---+ | Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ UIN: 1695089 | +---+ | Reply problems ?

Are you using a swtich? Assuming you have a basic network setup using a simple switch and a simple router you would generally be private for outgoing http traffic unless there is someone sophisticated enough to be running something like ettercap to confuse the switch. If you have no idea and if you have a remote computer you can connect to for browsing (maybe something at your home or elsewhere) you can remote control into it (using ssh tunnels for encryption) and then browse privately from that machine. Are you expecting the other hosts on your network to be monitoring your http traffic? If there is some suspected method of them monitoring you it may require a specific technique to avoid their monitoring. In any case, where does "gentoo" fall into this whole deal?
