But if I understand this correctly, isn't modules.alias generated by
depmod? And isn't module dependencies calculated during boot? So would
the file not be regenerated on the next reboot?

[gentoo-user] You, Gentoo and Google's Summer of Code.

2006-04-28 Thread Christel Dahlskjaer
Hi all, 

Some of you may already be familiar with Google's Summer of Code[1],
which is a program that offers student developers stipends to create new
open source programs or to help currently established projects. Google
works with a variety of open source, free software, and
technology-related groups to identify and fund several hundred projects
over a three-month period. The inaugural instance of the program, which
took place last summer, brough together 400 students and 40 mentoring
organisations from 49 countries. This year they are making room for even
more organisations and particpants. 

The goal of the program is to inspire young developers and provide
students in Computer Science and related fields the opportunity to do
work related to their academic pursuits during the summer, and to
support existing open source projects and organisations. This year
Gentoo is particpating as a mentoring organisation.


So, if you still haven't found that perfect summer job... this may be
worth checking out. We are looking for people passionate about open
source, and Gentoo in particular. Do you have the time to spend about 30
hours per week working on Gentoo this summer? Are you a team player? Are
you curious? Why not check out our page with ideas, or if you have an
idea of your own, even better! Think outside the box and send us a
proposal, we may just want to go for it. 

Should you decide to particpate, we will be accepting Student
applications via the Google Site from May 1st till midnight May 8th. If
you are interested and would like to discuss any of our current project
ideas, or your own idea before applying I urge you to come chat with us
on IRC[2] or to subscribe to the Gentoo Summer of Code mailing list[3].
We would love to hear from you.

Accepted students would be paired up with a team of two mentors, one
primary mentor and one back up mentor. Gentoo are interested in your
success with your project and we would at all times provide excellent
support from your mentor(s), your mentor(s) would be available to answer
any questions you may have, help you do your research and trouble
shooting, and to generally ensure that we were doing our best to ensure
that the experience was a great one for both you and Gentoo.

So, if this sounds at all interesting, check out the project page[4]
which lists the ideas currently proposed. Read the Student FAQ[5] to
ensure that you are eligible to participate and head over to speak with
us on IRC or the ML.

Now, anyone can submit project ideas and contribute to the discussion of
existing project ideas. Should you simply be interested in Summer of
Code but fall outside the catchment area, be short on time or for any
other reason unable to participate this year you are of course more than
welcome to still partake in the discussion(s) both on IRC and on the ML.

We love hearing from you!

Re: [gentoo-user] no net modules will load

2006-04-28 Thread Maurice E Johnson




It would seem that you failed to configure the necessary modules for loading any of the modules you list.
Also, as of kernel 2.6.13, devfs is no longer in the kernel and you must use udev. without it you will never get your devices to be recognised.

I do hope you kept your old kernel around so that you can boot to it.

Theoretically it's possible just by writing to /proc/kmem -- IIRC, that was 
one of the reasons it was writable: so you could apply (binary) patches 
against a running kernel.

I've never seen any non-malware that does so.  There is a GPL'd 
proof-of-concept rootkit that will hide its existence by 
modifying /proc/kmem.  (The rootkit doesn't actually do anything malicious 
and you have to have root access to modify /proc/kmem; the rootkit was 
just showing how to do this trickery without loading a module)

There's also the new kexec feature option in mm kernels (and it might have 
come mainline) that allows the kernel to start another kernel instead of 
rebooting your hardware.  That's basically as bad as a reboot anyway, 
because all services come down and all users are kicked out -- it is 
faster though, because you don't go down to the bootloader/BIOS level.

I found it (or my hardware) was a little bit buggy. My USB drivers would 
only work every other kexec.  Since I use a USB keyboard, this wasn't a 
workable solution.

you are wrong.
You don't need to reboot. Only, and really only after a kernel update you need 
to reboot.

Services might to have to be restarted, but that requires no reboot, just a 
console and root.

You need to run etc-update (or one of it's cousins) if you are told files need

I reboot if I need to install or change hardware.  As far as

I think that I may have read somewhere how to change kernels

Nah, you can restart pretty much any service to get the new version
going. Technically you shouldn't ever have to reboot except kernel
updates. (We aren't running windows here) ;)

Re: [gentoo-user] When to reboot after updates to the system

2006-04-28 Thread Kevin
On a related note, what is the most correct procedure for restarting a
service after an update to a service (say named or cyrus-imapd or apache
or sshd)?

I've been doing something like this:

# emerge -v openssh
examine config file differences and make any adjustments that are
required to be done by hand.
# /etc/init.d/sshd stop
# mv -i /etc/init.d/._cfg_sshd /etc/init.d/sshd
# /etc/init.d/sshd start

But I've noticed that there are cases when this general procedure
doesn't work.  Perhaps because binaries change location between package
versions and the old /etc/init.d/service script presumes the old package
binary location and the new package has already been installed so the
new binaries are no longer with the old startup script thinks they are.
 In those cases, I usually find the service with ps and kill it by hand,
then zap the service and start it again, using the new start script, but
maybe there's a better way.  Seems to me that it might be better to do
something like this:

# /etc/init.d/sshd stop
# emerge -v openssh
examine config file differences and make any adjustments that are
required to be done by hand.
# mv -i /etc/init.d/._cfg_sshd /etc/init.d/sshd
# /etc/init.d/sshd start

But if I'm remotely logged in to the box using ssh, then this has some
obvious problems (my connection to the box goes down when I turn off the
sshd daemon).

Any thoughts on this issue?

[gentoo-user] When to reboot after updates to the system

2006-04-28 Thread Kevin
Hi All-

I've read the portage documentation at
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/index.xml?catid=gentoo and I've searched
and browsed the gentoo-user mailing list archive, but I have a question
that I don't see answered anywhere.

It seems to me that it must be true that sometimes, after a system
upgrade done with:

emerge -uD system
or
emerge -uD world

I must reboot the computer for the changes to take effect.

I could be wrong on this, but it seems reasonable to me to think that I
should reboot in certain circumstances.  Perhaps after an upgrade to the
 glibc package or other libraries... not sure.

Am I right about this?

If so, can someone tell me under exactly what circumstances I should
reboot immediately after a system update such as these above?  (ie. if
glibc gets updated, if you add a new USE flag that requires recompiling
certain packages, after an update to the sysvinit package, etc.)

I realize of course that if I compile a new kernel and want to use the
new kernel then I need to configure the boot manager and reboot with the
new kernel, but it seems to me that there would be other circumstances
aside from this that would require a reboot after a system update.

Thanks for any replies.

Re: [gentoo-user] ssmtp and/or mailx delivery problem

What is the senders address?
That is where the first clue will be.

The modules are loaded when /lib/rcscripts/addons/udev-start.sh runs
udevtrigger, which goes through /sys looking for unhandled 'uevents'. 
As part of this handling, it tries to load modules for any hardware

that is attached.

AFAICT, at this point you have to remove the devices from
/lib/modules/`uname -r`/modules.alias to prevent udev from loading

If it's the first one, as far as I know, you can't.

If it's the latter, why would you want to do that? It saves some HD space. Also, 
you don't have to uncompress those files manually to read them--VIM, less, and 
surely many more text editors/readers that have gzip support will do that for you.

There are a few bugs open on bugzilla for this. I personally hate it,
so I made a small patch for portage to disable it. If you want to
disable it for the future, edit /usr/lib/portage/bin/dodoc, and remove
the gzip line. Every time you update portage, you'll need to modify
that file.

What's happening about locales/languages?
I've tried to install PHP-Nuke and Xoops, but one of them (I don't 
remember which one, now ;-)) doesn't like utf8 encoding, because it 
creates too long primary keys for MySQL.
So I remerged MySQL and replaced "utf8" with "latin1" 
in /etc/mysql/my.conf.
I've emerged Mediawiki (thanks Ric!) with the math USE flag, but when 
I try to save a page containing a formula I get the error message:

"1267: Illegal mix of collations (latin1_swedish_ci,IMPLICIT) and 
(utf8_general_ci,COERCIBLE) for operation '=' (localhost)"

Yes! My wikidb database was created with latin1_swedish_ci 
collation!!!
And phpmyadmin says to me that MySQL charset is utf8!!!

Who has set those collation values??? I didn't...

[gentoo-user] Modules autoloading?

2006-04-28 Thread Willie Wong
Dear all, 

  I performed a massive update on my laptop last night, and started
  observing the following behaviour on boot. 

  A message would pop-up saying to the effect that "udev is processing
  kernel events" and then proceeds to load a bunch of kernel modules
  which I didn't specify for loading in /etc/modules.autoload.d

  In autoload, I only specified 'bcm570x' for my NIC, but after the
  updates, the computer would automatically load the 'ipw2200' module
  for wireless and 'radeon_fb' (which I was playing with for a while
  but have decided not to use). 

  Any clue as to where I can turn off this behaviour? I checked the
  config files for udev and /etc/conf.d/rc, and I don't see anything
  obvious. 

Thanks, 

 Willie

[gentoo-user] Gentoo 2006.0 DVD hangs !

2006-04-28 Thread Rohit and Bhavana
Hi there,

I downloaded the ISO image and as I didn't have a blank CD handy, I
burned it onto a single layer DVD [after all it was an ISO image,
right?] and hoped for the best.
My PC now boots off it, shows lovely startup splash etc till it tries to
start GDM.
At that point - the mouse pointer changes to a clock [waiting for the
background to draw in gdmgreeter I think] - and it just keeps waiting.

   1. My machine is an athlon-xp with modo integrated nvidia gefore2
  disabled and onboard GeForce4 FS 5600 enabled. No problems so far
  with hardware. My previous issues with soundcard and rootdisk
  ultimately traced out to be udev issues.
   2. top shows 99+ % CPU hogged by gdmgreeter on a constant basis.

As it is a released ISO, I wouldn't expect problems here - but I do ;-(
Has anyone else had it? Could it be because I am using a DVD to burn
that CD image? [It boots fine, and I thought it was just media type...]

Would appreciate responses please.

regards,
Rohit

Speaking of quickpkg, does anyone know if one can run quickpkg on an AMD
and have it run on a pentium M?

I compiled my main desktop which is an ADM64 with:

-O3 -msse2 -msse3 -mfpmath=sse -march=athlon-xp -pipe

I am going away for 2 weeks and I am snagging my wife's laptop and
ditching WinXP.  I don't have time to build a fully functional Gentoo
system so I was hoping to be able to use my current one.

My only other option would be Ubuntu or bloated Fedora.

Thanks,

That is really true if you have one of those small OEM heatsinks.  I
have a AMD 2500+ in my rig and I have the ThermalTake Venus 12 with the
fans running in temp controlled mode.  The highest I have seen mine run
in a long time is about 98F.  I run folding 24/7 on my systems too. 
Compiling or running folding will not last long on those small OEM
heatsinks.  They are just barely enough for everyday use.  If you have a
OEM heatsink, invest in a better one.  The heatsinks are larger and the
fans are better too.

I completely agree with Dale, Pentium 4 is known for heat problems, I
have to use cpufreqd and write rules to let the CPU cool down by
lowering the frequency while compiling/playing. If you have thermal
zone option checked with ACPI in your kernel, it would reboot at
around 73C, if not, it would just go up and eventually lock up.

Hard drives and memory also heat a lot, check them too.

And Thomas, I have a pavilion, it runs flawless for a LONG time now,
so, don't say that kinda stuff about it, my notebook have feelings,
you know...

I ran into this with a family member recently, the CPU was running hot
and the mobo was cutting the CPU off.  The only way to get it back up
again was to reboot.  She kept doing this though, thinking it was
windoze, until the CPU burned out.

If you are using Gentoo and it does this during a compile, check the CPU
heatsink for dust and make sure the fan is spinning as it should.  May
also want to check those temps if you can.  Most newer mobos have that.

It could also be something else getting hot, drive, memory, one of the

[gentoo-user] OpenOffice weirdness

2006-04-28 Thread James
Hello,

OpenOffice has worked wonderfully for me for some time now, until just 
yesterday.
I do not use openoffice regularly so I not sure which update caused the problem.

On both these versions:  2.0.1-r1  and 2.0.2-r2

I get the same problem:

ooffice2 lauches the apps just fine. When I go to save a document as a 
'.doc' file I get a Sorry-OpenOffice popup window that locks up my entire
KDE session.

The popup error message is:
" Could not find mine type
application/octet-stream"

 I can move the mouse cursor around the screen but everything else is lock up. I
have to ssh into the system from a remote machine to recovery the desktop


re emerging openoffice, either one of the above versions does not fix the
problem. I launch ooffice2 at the command line with:

'ooffice2' I get this error message, twice:

'kdeui (kdelibs): ERROR: No such XML file /dev/null
kdeui (kdelibs): ERROR: No such XML file /dev/null'
and ooffice2 hangs launch.

kde-base/kdelibs:
Installed:   3.4.3-r1 3.5.2-r4


When I launch ooffice2 with 'ooffice2 &' it successfully launches
and I can create and input data to files. I only have problems when
I use 'save' or 'save as'.

/dev/null has these permissions: 
crw-rw 1 root 1, 3 Jan 20 05:05 /dev/null

changing permissions to:
crw-rw-rw- 1 root 1, 3 Jan 20 05:05 /dev/null

does not help.

ideas?

Deep means that it does reverse dependency mojo and updates the depends as 
well (in fact, you should actually be doing it that way).

positive testing of a hypothesis is not a proof of correctness.
Negative testing is a proof of its falseness.

That said, you can only validate the hypothesis of not working RAM by
actually finding errors with memtest, but never prove that it is OK.

Re: [gentoo-user] My box freezee sometimes

2006-04-28 Thread Thomas G. Willis

The powersupply may be it then.

I don't know whether the logs would tell you that though.

I had freezing problems with my old box. I was only able to narrow it
down when I got to a point where I could reproduce the problem
reliably.

In my case the logs were no help, but encoding a file to mp3 would do
it. running it through gdb(i think) I saw that a segfault would always
happen in a system call related to alocating memory and then the
system would feeze right after that.

My ram was being reported as having errors in memtest but only in that
machine. I inferred it must be the controller. Which I read was
incorporated into the chip for that version of Athalon.

Long story short... screwed, buy new machine avoid HP pavillions  in
the future just to be safe.

I am by no means an expert but that's how I anrrowed things down.

What about disks? Did you check smart-status?
Download some utility (e.g. SeaTools for Seagate disks)

Hi, my Pentium 4 box freeze suddenly sometimes. Reboot is a only solution.
I can try to figure out for a especific use or especific application
to associate, but no success.
I suspect this is a hardware problem or misconfigured driver.

Where I find last kernel panic logs after reboot ?
What are the first steps to investigate this  ?

Hi,

Well, It's me again,
I was satisfied too quickly !
After upgrading xorg to xorg-x11-7.0-r1 and getting dri successfully,
gdm still crashes at reboot (kernel panic).
I really don't know what to do now :-(
Any idea ?

Thanks a lot,

Thanks for all the answers guys!  I eventually managed to get the

in my /etc/X11/Sessions/fluxbox

If my understanding is correct the X110ssh-askpass package will

Hi all,

I re-compiled my 2.6.16 kernel

Options
/dev/agpgart as module

I disactived Direct Rendering Manager and Ati Radeon kernel support

I emerged ati-drivers-8.23.7

then xorg.conf :  driver fglrx

Option  "UseInternalAGPGART" "no"

Now, dri works fine : 1431.877 FPS instead of 75 FPS !!!

Conclusion :
My ati radeon 9600 graphic card (RV350) is not supported by ati kernel and xorg 
drivers.
Only proprietary ati drivers can set dri for my card.

Two small problems however :
startx does not work (gdm does !)
Stellarium and Celestia segfault.
Well, I have again some work to do !

Thanks to all of you for having helped me  :-)

 Hi,

   I'm trying to prepare a very old system for use in a laboratory, and
 while I normally do the source installation, the initial parts of the
 installation of this old system were so slow that I don't think a source
 installation is practical. I would like to use binary packages for
 installation, but I cannot find an image of aa cdrom for x86 precompiled
 packages.
   Does anyone know where you can download an image of preceompiled x86
 packages or how you can tell emerge to look for precompiled packages on
 the web?
   Thank you,

Hi,
Can't find anything, too.
As last resort, if your "arch" is at at least "i686" you could use the
liveCD-2006.0 directly (to install) or start it and using "quickpkg"
make your own binary packages. Save them elsewhere, and use later.
If arch < i686 can't help.
BTW: check for "Kuroraa-0.2" or better "RR4-3.0b", the second is a half
full DVD with many packages (may be even too many ;) - Gentoo derivates.
