Re: [gentoo-user] Re: Rsync backup problem2

I think it is not serious or I would'nt be able to mount it error free. check fstab for proper entry Yeah, first place I looked but there has been no activity there for a good while. The last things I recall doing before the reboot where this started was: 1) attempted to build amaya by hand and errored out, but not disk related errors. 2) Attempted to install strace (to help with amaya build) and it errored out... I didn't keep error. 3) ran revdep-rebuild It came up clear after one shotting a couple of things I think. I ran it because of the error attempting to install strace. I didn't keep the error but after revdep-rebuild one shotted kpdf-? and maybe something else, strace emerged without error. I can't think what in that activity would cause a disk error especially since none of the activity involved /dev/hdb6 which is not a system directory (/dev/hdb6 = /anex2) And is primarily a backup disk. There may have been a backup run though... The last one happend at 9:30 and this boot problem showed up fairly soon after. The backup itserlf was error free (rsnapshot of a few directories) try to mount the partition manually in maintenance mode try accessing the partition from another o/s or live cd. Well as reported in OP it mounts without any evidence of problems. Boot on up and /dev/hdb6 seems mounted ok.

If you get a message to run fix-fixable, then follow those directions. It could be as simple as not shutting down properly or having had to reboot without shutting down at all. A status bit is set on the drive which tells fsck that it was not shutdown properly. Reiser is unique in that it can't really check the root partition carefully because it is always mounted read-only when it checks it.

[gentoo-user] Bind Questions
Hi, I am learning Linux DNS server (named) and I found that the host hostname command worksonly if there is an entry in the corresponding domain zone file(i.e. localhost.zone) and the dig -x ip command works only if there is an entry in the corresponding reverse domain zone file(i.e. 0.0.127.in-addr.arpa.zone). And itis not necessary to enter hostname in hosts file. Also in the same network there are many linux and windows clients but the Linuz DNS server (named) is not giving any response to the host or dig command by its own. Can any one tell me how the Named/DNS server works? Howit discovers neighboorhood(local LAN) hosts? Also can we check/list all the hosts/ip addresses thatare cached by dns server? If yes, then HOW? Any answers/suggestions will be appreciated. Hiren Dave

The machine no longer boots to any level that a user could use. I'm told there are lots of messages on the screen about being unable to find files. (/usr/bin, /usr/sbin sort of things...) That happened to me too ;-) But the reason was quickly clear: I had deleted /usr instead of /usr/*! Remember: OK, so far I cannot get into the machine so I don't know how to double check that but I'm pretty sure I didn't do this. The issue in and around these instructions, for me was that: 1) I'm in a completely out of disk space situation 2) I'm trying to move /usr 3) /usr includes /usr/bin and /usr/sbin which is where all commands are to basically use the machine and make the changes. (mv, cp, ls and all the normal stuff.) so I 1) Copied everything to the new partition 2) Removed everything from the original /usr except /usr/bin and /usr/lib. The only copy of /usr/sbin is on the new partition. /usr/lib had to remain for me to use vim to edit fstab. 3) The new partition was labeled using e2label 4) fstab was edited to mount the new partition at the existing /usr direcotry which still contained /usr/bin and /usr/lib 5) As a backup, since I had removed most of /usr to create space I now made a new directory /usrBACKUP and placed a copy of what was left in /usr there so I could get to it if I needed to. 6) Unmounted /mnt/usr_temp and rebooted. The messages (I'm told over the phone by a 78 year old man who is hard of hearing) are in and around not being able to find /usr/sbin. I don't know what they really say as we didn't try to get that detailed. He has decided to ship the machine to me via FedEx and I'll have to fix it here when it arrives. He didn't want to mess with Knoppix or the Gentoo install disk as he felt it was way beyond what he could do. Again, thanks for the ideas below, but since the machine is 350 miles away it's hard to do the experiements below. I'll do them when it arrives next week. Cheers, Mark 9. delete the old /usr directory to free the unused space: cd /mnt/something/usr rm -rf * NB: do not delete /usr itself, just its contents, as /usr is the mount point for the new partition; Let us suppose that your /etc/fstab looks like: /dev/hda1 /boot type opts dump/pass /dev/hda2 / type opts dump/pass /dev/hda3 /usr type opts dump/pass The first and simplest try: reboot from a livecd, then: mount /dev/hda2 /mnt/something ls /mnt/something/usr If /mnt/something/usr doesn't exist, then: mkdir /mnt/something/usr reboot You could check that the new /usr partition is there, before rebooting: mount /dev/hda3 /mnt/something_else ls /mnt/something_else The old /usr contents should be there. Why not? So, if your reboot doesn't work, reboot again from a livecd and check /etc/fstab. Let me/us know! Sergio Hi Sergio, OK, the machine arrived here about an hour ago overnight express. It's now up and running. The mistake was mine, but I think it wasn't something that was very clearly warned about in the online docs, or at least I don't remember being warned about this. I created a new partition and copied all the information over. I labeled the partition USR using e2label and then carefully copied an existing line from elsewhere in the fstab file and changed the specifics to mount the partition, or so I thought. When the machine arrived here and I booted the new partition was not mounted, but I was able to immediately mount it by hand. Inspecting the fstab file quickly revealed that the line I had copied from elsewhere in the fstab file had the options 'noauto,noatime' sort of line. I removed noauto, rebooted, and the machine appears to be working fine. Since the machine is here I'll do a thorough set of updates and hopefully get it shipped out again on Monday. Live and learn!

Re: [gentoo-user] radeon and framebuffer
Aggelos schreef: Holly Bostick wrote: I myself have a 9800SE, and also use vesa-tng for fbsplash. Both fbsplash/framebuffer and fglrx work fine; aside from the fb console background, I can even play mplayer videos in the getty console, which is also a framebuffer operation as far as I know. I have heard that enabling the radeon framebuffer is a bad idea, though (it doesn't work well with the fglrx drivers). But stick to vesa or vesa-tng, and you should have no problems. I haven't, from 2.6.13 kernels up to my current (2.6.15-r7), and with fglrx versions from 8.8.whatever to my current 8.22.5. Could you tell me the options you are passing to the kernel at boot time (I am using grub) for the vesa-tng ? Sure, sorry it took so long to get back to you; I've been busy in RL. (from an old grub.conf backup; ignore the kernel version, as the options don't change-- I just change the title as I upgrade). Gentoo_current (2.6.12-gentoo-r10) root (hd0,1) kernel /vmlinuz ro quiet root=/dev/hda5 video=vesafb:ywrap,mtrr:3,[EMAIL PROTECTED] splash=silent,fadein,theme:livecd-2005.1 CONSOLE=/dev/tty1 It's pretty much exactly the same as the example on the Wiki (http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_gensplash#GRUB_Example), except that with the upgrade of splashutils, I now need mtrr:3 so that the splash comes up in a timely fashion (there's an einfo in the ebuild about this iirc), and of course changed for my system specs. The only thing that gave me a problem is that I had to set [EMAIL PROTECTED] as my default resolution for vesa-tng in the kernel config itself; you're not supposed to /have/ to, but if I didn't, I got errors when using the livecd themes (no 8bpp pictures, which is correct, since the livecd themes don't have 8-bit pictures, but this meant that the drivers were for some reason defaulting to 8-bit if I didn't specify 32-bit in the kernel. Which according to another thread on this subject is not correct behaviour-- if I specify 32-bit in the grub kernel line, it's supposed to use that instead-- but that's what it did on my system anyway. Specifying CONFIG_FB_VESA_DEFAULT_MODE=[EMAIL PROTECTED] solved the issue, since I don't like the Emergence theme, which does have 8-bit pictures, so worked correctly in all cases).

James A few notes on your bugzilla submission. 1) The component should be Ebuild 2) After you submit the original bug, edit the Keywords field and add EBUILD and submit again. I know, it's redundant, but that's the way it's supposed to be done. Bugzilla should have more fields open on the original submission page. 3) Your summary should contain a little more info, like (NEW EBUILD) or (VERSION BUMP) along with the category the ebuild should belong too. Something like this: /net-mail/courier-imap-4.1.0 (VERSION BUMP) This helps the bug wranglers properly assign the bug. You also could view the changelog and email the maintainer privately with this request. Something as simple as renaming an ebuild for a new version could occur quickly. The 3rd line, # $Header: $ needs to end with a $ after the : and space. The /var/cvsroot stuff does not apply for new ebuilds until the maintainer publishes it. Lastly, I notice that there are a fair amount of patches going on, and with these you need to be very careful. The patches should be examined against the new files and make sure they are even required. Sometimes, simply renaming a file is insufficient. I hope you don't mind these comments. They are designed to protect you from the wrath of the bug wranglers who have a low tolerance threshold sometimes for incorrectly submitted bugs.

My solution has been to emerge Acidrip and Mplayer - it is masked, but I have run into no problem so far, the results are as good as those I had with DVDrip/transcode and much faster. I have discovered it uses a newer codec however (FMP4) that prevents viewing the videos on older Xine install, but installing mplayer and/or vlc on those machines is a workaround. I guess it's a problem of building XIne with the right libraries but not every distribution makes it as easy as re-emerging in Gentoo. Xine on Gentoo amd64 works however. Now putting the video back on a DVD is another problem. I've been playing with DVDauthor so far but my standalone players won't play the DVDs (that do play on computers however...)

I think I found out what might be wrong. I found a thread in the gentoo forums where people were having similar problems with laptop dvd drives.

As another participant pointed out, fetchmail has long delays when compiled with ipv6 support, on an ipv4-only machine. Probably it does an ipv6 lookup, waits for the timeout, then falls back to ipv4. Since I use fetchmail, that is more than a hypothetical consideration for me. The whole point behind -* is to prevent future surprises. Yesterday it was emboss and ipv6. Today it's apache2. What's next; and when?

That is an insult for me as I consider myself a normal person and there are NO OS you can install without using your hands.
