[gentoo-user] newly emerged apache permissions error
I set up a box to run asterisk and try various asterisk front ends on. This was back in January. I got gentoo installed and emerged apache2, php5, and mysql. Then I did not touch the box again until tonight. I cannot get apache to actually serve any pages. " Forbidden You don't have permission to access /test.php on this server. Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request. " It does not matter what file I ask it for, index.html, index.php, / , etc, I get the same error. I have a DocumentRoot plus newly a virtual host pointing to the same DocumentRoot with the right ServerName and teh directories are all owned by apache:apache, which is the user the server runs under. The files all have owner and group permissions. Everything is set to not deny and to allow all. I run apache2 on FreeBSD just fine and I cannot see anything in the config that should prevent this. Something about the default gentoo config or install it seems. Any hints or help is greatly appreciated.

I know they don't want to spend much money of the program as the program are very expensive. The most important thing Dentists want from their programs is the ability to submit the claim electronically as they get paid faster; and basic recording operations for medical program. Best alternative I've found are: 1.) http://www.open-dent.com/ Though, this misinformed dentist settle on MS NET Framework so it can not be use with Linux as of yet, so even though it is GPL program it is useless for me. 2.) http://www.oemr.org/ This is intended for medical mostly but I think can be customized for dental use as well. I haven't test it yet as in order to use it you need to have PHP4 (they don't support PHP5 yet). Another advantage in OEMR, it is using SQL-Ledger for accounting, which we are using currently so it is an advantage. -- #Joseph -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

[gentoo-user] installing a binary package without /usr/portage
Hi all, I use gentoo on small industrial-pc's, and strip out a lot of stuff that just takes up space, such as /usr/portage. I made a binary package with quickpkg, to install (with emerge --usepkg) on one of these PC's, but it complains about lots of stuff missing. So, if I want to do without /usr/portage, can I just install binary packages by untarring them to / ? Or is there other essential stuff that emerge does when you install a binary package? I would appreciate comments on how to make this work - maybe by just leaving an essential subset of /usr/portage. Note, that I know I won't be able to emerge anything from source without most of the /usr/portage stuff, but I'm happy with that, as all these PC's are close images of each other, and we have one master copy with a larger HD. thanks, -- Iain Buchanan The nice thing about Windows is - It does not just crash, it displays a dialog box and lets you press 'OK' first.

It happens sometimes, usually when we least expect it too. I'll have to look into that. It's options like those that mean I really need to work more on my distcc toggle command.

I assumed to OP was recompiling his kernel, not updating it ("if I
rebuild my kernel with gcc.3.4.5"). In which case, vmware can be done
before the reboot.
I would recommend rebuilding with the new gcc, rather than updating and
rebuilding at the same time, cause you may get other issues. So keeping
to the same kernel will single them to gcc.

VMWare is a problem, it looks at uname, so you can only update it to use your latest kernel *after* a reboot. PITA. nvidia-kernel uses the kernel that symlink /usr/src/linux points to, so you can re-emerge ndvidia-kernel before a reboot. YMMV. Cheers, Dave -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

[gentoo-user] Questions about emerge -e world
First a comment... - cost of computer... approx $800 - cost of small Uninterruptable Power Supply... approx $250 - the feeling when the lights go out for 30 seconds during a thunderstorm at package 198 of 292 in "emerge -e world", but the UPS keeps things going until power comes back... priceless I didn't intend to be running the emerge that long, but I wanted to try the gcc upgrade on my emergency backup machine first. It's a 1999 Dell with 450 mhz PIII and 128 megs of RAM. The video card on my main machine has 256 megs of RAM, fercryin out loud. Anyhow, according to /var/log/portage, item 3361-ncurses-5.4-r6.log has datestamp of May 30th 14:49 EDT and item 3652-screen-4.0.2-r4.log has datestamp of June 1 03:26 EDT. The "emerge -e world" took 36 hours and 37 minutes... whe. But it works. Obviously, it'll run a lot faster on my on my main machine, an AMD64 3000+ with 2 gigs of RAM. However, in case something happens part way through, I'd like to know... 1) How do I resume the build? 2) Is it possible to get a list of packages to be built, including the correct order, so that I can resume manually if necessary? 3) A vaguely related item... will it make any noticable difference if I rebuild my kernel with gcc.3.4.5 and reboot at the end of the process?

I'm a little confused on how to set this up. You need to select "grab video frames", not "choose random images", in the xscreensaver advanced tab. (leave the vidwhacker image directory blank also). That's if you're using gnome-2.12. For gnome 2.14 you'd be using gnome-screensaver. So far, with gnome-screensaver, you have to edit the vidwhacker.desktop file by hand I think.

[gentoo-user] OT - Vidwhacker screensaver and live TV
I have a question about the Vidwhacker screensaver. In the comment on the Settings tab for screensaver settings in Gnome, it says that vidwhacker "works really well if you just feed live broadcast TV into it." I'm a little confused on how to set this up. I have a TV card installed, and MythTV works great. My TV-in device is /dev/v4l/video0. When I specify this in the image directory text box, I get an error from xscreensaver when I ask to preview Vidwhacker, saying the directory doesn't exist. I go back to the text box and change the value to /dev/v4l and preview again. Now it tells me that there are no files in /dev/v4l. Here's an ls of /dev/v4l: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ ls -l /dev/v4l total 0 crw-rw 1 root video 81, 64 Jun 1 13:07 radio0 crw-rw 1 root video 81, 224 Jun 1 13:07 vbi0 crw-rw 1 root video 81, 0 Jun 1 13:07 video0 crw-rw 1 root video 81, 24 Jun 1 13:07 video24 crw-rw 1 root video 81, 32 Jun 1 13:07 video32 Am I setting this up wrong?

In the kernel config, hit the "/" key, a box will come up that you can search for it. Type in radeon and hit enter. One of the ones that comes up should help you.

Re: [gentoo-user] EMERGENCY - GCC GONE!
I fixed it. Thank God that's over... it was good to go back to the command line a bit for me. Keeps me sharp... even despite the huge allergies I'm experiencing right now. I've also added a note in my notes files to NEVER run anything like "emerge --unmerge gcc" ever again. That was a huge mistake. Rather, I've found through this experience gcc-config. Never knew that was there... much to my misfortune. Thanks a lot for your help - Without you I'd have to reinstall, since I'm not skilled enough to brave the world of a live-cd and chroot (I think) into my drive to then install gcc. At least, that's what I think my next best option was... I'm not at all familiar with chroot though, so all I can do is speculate. I think I'll go read its man page now in celebration of the restoration of my system. Also, right before I killed my system, I made something, a very very elementary bash script (my first bash script - yay!) to toggle distcc on and off. It's NOT terribly advanced, but it's a start... here it is: localhost ~ # cat /bin/ch_distcc #!/bin/bash # alternates between using make.conf and make.conf.other # in other words, toggles between using distcc or not # this should be where your make.conf lives. MAKE_DIR="/etc/"; mv "$MAKE_DIR"make.conf "$MAKE_DIR"buffer mv "$MAKE_DIR"make.conf.other "$MAKE_DIR"make.conf mv "$MAKE_DIR"buffer "$MAKE_DIR"make.conf.other I know it's not terribly good, it assumes that make.conf and make.conf.other are exactly the same - except for the distcc part in FEATURES="".

Log in to your router and check what IP's are in use to what mac
addresses. Maybe someone got on your wireless network?

[gentoo-user] eth1 wireless problem
My wireless has been working fine, I don't think I even ran any updates
yesturday, but this morning I get this
/etc/init.d/net.eth1 start
* Starting eth1
* Configuring wireless network for eth1
* eth1 connected to ESSID "ptfd" at 00:06:25:D9:DC:2F
* in managed mode on channel 11 (WEP disabled)
* Bringing up eth1
* 192.168.14.102
* 192.168.14.102 already taken on eth1
I don't get that last line, why is it reporting that the ip is already taken
on eth1 when I am starting eth1?
ifconfig shows no eth1 setup.
I can run eth1 with dhcpcd and it gets a differernt ip, in teh same subnet,
everything else seems fine. My eth1 wireless is set at teh static ip
with /etc/conf.d/wireless, mostly due to using my system on several nets and
vpn's and vmware, I just like the static ip's better, but can't figure
this...
here is teh applicable from my /etc/conf.d/wireless
config_ptfd=( "192.168.14.102 brd 192.168.14.255 netmask 255.255.255.0")
routes_ptfd=("default via 192.168.14.1")
dns_servers_ptfd=( "68.87.72.130" "68.87.77.130" )
Any ideas are appreciated, I must be missing something... I have been
suspending to ram lately, but this is with a fresh boot..
