If I wanted any silly package admistration system messing with things like the default flags and compiler, I would better use any other distro. The problem is that a source based distro, relies deeply in the compiler and the libs, and those are tied to the profile in gentoo.

We don't wait for "releases" before getting new "features". This release appears to be mainly an update to the installer, the addition of more device drivers to the install CD, and a (relatively) fresh set of binary packages so users wanting to stay with stable will not have to update and recompile a bunch of stuff right off the bat.

OK, but how will it get discovered again upon reboot?
/etc/init.d/iptables will overwrite what my_firewall.sh does.
as it is currently doing

Um, maybe I missing something but searching for "SAVE_ON"
only reveals this line in the /etc/init.d/iptables script:
stop() {
if [[ ${SAVE_ON_STOP} == "yes" ]] ; then
save || return 1
fi
it looks for this setting in my script? If not, what file do
I set the param ${SAVE_ON_STOP} in?
I.E. this is a conditional statement testing the setting which is
where?
Or do I just add this line to the end for the scipt?

Absolutely nothing. I have learned (thru pain) that you need to
run 'revdep-rebuild -p' on a semi routine basis.
I have a friend (XP and FreeBSD) genius that refuses to listen
or join gentoo-user for himself.He's surpassed the
buffer limits of fgrep..{}
So I posted a generic question so he (hi bernie)
could read the responses in
linux.gentoo.user via net-news.

[gentoo-user] Authentication Issues
Hi all, I just performed a new Gentoo install, and am having a couple of issues regarding authentication. I think that the problem is something to do with PAM/Shadow. (No ... it's not the blocking issue between pam-login and shadow). I run a single user system with just users for myself (username: kris) and root. I cannot su into the root account from my personal account. I have added kris to the group wheel using the `gpasswd -a kris wheel', but still cannot su. I verified that kris is in the wheel group by logging in and trying the `groups' command. Then, I tried editing `/etc/pam.d/su' and commenting out the line `auth required pam_wheel.so use_uid', as the comment above it states that doing so will allow users who are not in the wheel group to su. Still, no joy. Other comments in that file state that you may give explicit rights to specific users by creating the file `/etc/security/suauth.allow' with each allowed user on their own line. Still, no joy. On a (possibly) related note: while trying to switch from a graphical login to a virtual console to work on some of these problems, I found that the usual Ctrl-Alt-F* incantation did not work. The only way to switch to a virtual console was to right click on the desktop and go through the `Switch User' menu function on KDE. Further, when switching back to the graphical login from the console, I found that the screensaver had come on and had locked the desktop (though this was disabled within KDE's configuration). The big problem, however, came when I could not unlock the screensaver with my password. Also, kris' attempts to change his passwd are met with the error: `Authentication token manipulation error'. Thanks in advance for all of your help. System information is appended below.

I was just searching for some kind of cleanup function and thought I found it. So it's probably in fact a gtk memory leak. Are you by chance running non-x86?

Being kind of a Gentoo newbie and not a programmer or developer, I am not sure what the problem could be. I have tried this on two different computers and always get the same result. Since everything seems to work except for the recurring revdep-rebuild issue, I am choosing to ignore it at this time. I did look into the drivers on the nVidia web site per rob's suggestion. The extensive install notes showed me a possible solution. It involves checking for conflicting libraries and/or symlinks. Sounds like it could be what I am experiencing. I will experiment with that although I am not sure I will know what I am doing. No matter though. I am retired and am experimenting with Genoo on "testing" machines, so it doesn't really matter if I break something. I have learned a lot about Gentoo this way and I am getting better with it. I was thinking someone else may have experienced the same problem and had found the solution. Thanks, all! I will keep my eyes on the gentoo-user list. If I succeed in solving this issue, I will let you all know. Bill -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

VPN I have a VPN set up on my pix firewall, its using the MS-CHAPP protocol (it's a PIX501) I need to set up a good (easy to use) VPN Client for my gentoo laptop 2. Backup I have Backup Exec 10 from Veritas, with a quantum DLT loader -- I need to come up with a way to back up to that device from the Gentoo Servers (2 right now) -- I had it working on fedora, so im guessing I can make it work on gentoo, but any alternative solutions etc would be most appreciated 3. Work Log Im looking for a good hours logging program that can handle real times. The main problem with excel / open office spreadsheet is that it does not like times, and cant easily calculate the hours expended.

Firefox was probably compiled with XPrint support. The USE flag "xprint" should do this. At least I think that XPrint configured a PDF Printer by default. Another option would be to use CUPS and configure a PDF printer there. It wouldn't matter in that case if Firefox has Xprint support, but that would probably make switching printers easier, too. -hwh -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

If it's possible , can u give me a little guide ? does current gentoo version supports for server capabilities ? Works fine with Gentoo from 2005.1 install disk going forward. My personal server is one and I have the Compaq RAID card as well which was supported without issue though the naming is a bit odd ie /dev/sda1 on another system is actually /dev/cciss/c0d0p1 on that system. Keep that in mind and follow the install guide and you should have no issues. kashani -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
