Re: [gentoo-ppc-user] Installing Gentoo on a Powermac G5
The video should not be a big problem. If you are going to use xorg-7.1, make sure to apply the patch to the ati driver. I could not get xorg.conf set up correctly, until Xorgautoconfig gave me a starting point. I haven't used ppc64, but many of the developers are doing so. In fact, I've had to add ppc to ebuilds that had ppc64 in the KEYWORDS, but not ppc. I don't know about mixing ppc32 and ppc64 apps, but perhaps a chroot environment such as that used in amd64 might be possible.

Open Firmware looks for a HFS blessed partition to boot from, which is all the apple_bootstrap partition actually is. It contains a copy of yaboot as well. When ybin runs, it will tell OpenFirmware to boot from this device (well, that what the nvram write is for. If your kernel doesn't have nvram support, you'll have to set this manually). Note that it doesn't really matter which disk this partition is on, but it's preferred to have it before the OSX partition so that if OSX resets the nvram, it will be the first blessed HFS partition found and still boot as normal. 2.

I can't speak too much for ppc64 (I only have ppc32 machines), but you have a few options. A pure ppc64 machine won't work with everything. For instance, there are issues with Mozilla based applications and ppc64, but KDE (and konqueror) should work great.

Ok. I suppose I should have explained better. OS X is already installed, so I imagine the bootstrap partition is already on the OS X disk right? Sorry to be thick, but you say 'it doesn't matter which disk' it is on, so as long as it is on one of them that's OK? I should say here, my SATA drive just arrived an hour ago, and I installed it and booted OS X, and it seems the drives were reversed, that is, the old disk is disk 1, and the new one is disk 0. Does this make a difference... I guess I'll just make the partition anyway, as I don't believe it takes a whole lot of space. 2. If I follow the PPC64 guide does this give me the 64bit userland?

Ok, I see on the mirrors there are PPC64 32 bit UL and 64 bit UL tarballs. To tell the truth I am planning on using KDE anyway (and I can live without firefox) , so I think I will give the 64bit a shot. If it doesn't work out for me I will just do a reinstall. No big whoop. Just playing around for now anyway. Just to confirm, the packages in the database that are under PPC64 arch are the 64 bit userland apps right?

A quick sniff gets what appears to be a key exchange and then a bunch of gobbledy-gook, so I think you should be good to go, if you're using RDP (and not VNC). This is based on vague recollections, and a quick sniff with wireshark, so, please, don't take it as gospel. I fear that I will not be able to use RDP with this particular box. Some years now I locked this WinXP down sooo much that it is now impervious to most attempts to connect to it.

Important note here: There is _no_ name based virtual hosts when using SSL. That's simply due to that the SSL layer kicks in first, HTTP is staged after that. So NameVirtualHost *:443 does not make sense. Note that name based vhosts are a feature of HTTP (1.1). It analyzes the Hostname header in the Http request. Obviously, this is not possible to archive if an SSL connection should be established first. So basically that means you can only have one SSL server per IP. Just switch to fixed IP configuration instead (for SSL). -hwh -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

[gentoo-user] Re: OT: auto rename konsole session tabs?
Harm Geerts harmgeerts at home.nl writes: OT: I use kde and quite a lot of konsole sessions for admin of many other systems. I currently manually use 'rename' in kde to put the system's hostname into the tab (located at the bottom of the window), for quick reference. Is there a way (trick) to automatically do this? My prompt (command line) does this automatically, I just want the hostname of the remote host(or IP address) I ssh into to replace the 'shell #' that is there by default. If not ssh'd into a remote system, then the default 'shell #' is ok as the default. Not sure if you can rename them based on what you run in the session. But you can name them when you start a session. Well when I ssh into a remote system, bash detects this (hostname) and displays the hostname in the prompt(command line) automatically. So it is possible, another way to pose the question is how to transfer this information 'automatically' from bash to the kde-session-tab-name? Click on the menu entry Settings-Configure Konsole Choose the Session tab. Create a new session for each remote machine Name is used in the tabname, so you can enter the hostname. Execute is used to start the session, if you want to start ssh directly enter ssh host here. There are a few examples present you can look at. You probably haven't used them yet, otherwise you wouldn't be asking this :) When you want a new session you should choose the session you configured instead of the default session named Shell. Yes, but if I ssh into a new system with a previoulsly unknow name or IP, then I have to manually change this information? If that is true, then it is not what I want/need. I need auto_discovery of either the hostname or IP address of the remote target, passed to the kde-session-tab-name. That's the challenge. It's for newly installed machines with new names and IP. Or some remote machine, I have never ssh'd into before. Furthermore, as the list grows very large, I it will become a pain doing this before remote access. Many are gentoo based but other are not. I can modify some files on the remotes, if necessary, but many will only be remotely admin'd one or twice a year (hopefully). Auto_magically maybe it's easier to auto_magically discover (pass) the remote's ip address to the kde-session-tab-name parameter? James -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

[gentoo-user] Installing Gentoo with a true Hardware RAID Controller ...
Hello, I am trying to install Gentoo linux on an AMD 64 system with a Promise Supertrak 8350 Hardware RAID controller. Here are the points of note with this:The vendor has open source drivers available but I have to compile them with the kernel source. The LiveCD and LiveDVD do not have automatic detection for this card.I don't have a spare IDE hard disk to install Gentoo and then port over.I have over 2 GB's of RAM. So here is what I am wondering? Does anyone have experience / working system with Gentoo with this card yet?If so, can I get a kernel module that works with the LiveCD/LiveDVD so that i can at least partition and mount my drives? If this is not possible, is there a way where I can do a no nonsense installation of Gentoo on RAM so that I can compile the kernel drivers myself? Anything else that i haven't thought of as well? I am open to suggestions. Thank you for any help you provide with this. Regards,Christopher Koeber

If this is not possible, is there a way where I can do a no nonsense installation of Gentoo on RAM so that I can compile the kernel drivers myself? 2G should be enough to compile a kernel module, shouldn't it? ;) Yeah, I've sometimes needed to do this to get access to my RAID arrays attached to an areca 1160. Once you get a prompt in the livecd environment, you'll already be on a ramdisk. Extract a stage3 somewhere, copy over your resolv.conf, and chroot. Install gentoo-sources, ungzip /proc/config.gz as your .config, and make modules_prepare. Now, you should be able to build your out-of-tree module so that it will work with your currently running kernel. If you have problems, try updating system before installing gentoo-sources -- once you have access to the drives you are actually going to install on, you can always copy the updated stage3 to the disks instead of extracting a new one and working from scratch again. -- If there's one thing we've established over the years, it's that the vast majority of our users don't have the slightest clue what's best for them in terms of package stability. -- Gentoo Developer Ciaran McCreesh pgpQbDouWLaCm.pgp Description: PGP signature
