[gentoo-user] [OT] Problem with disk: cannot mount as ext3 but can as ext2
Hello, I had a hard disk attached on an old RedHat PC formatted and mounted as ext3 filesystem. I removed the hard disk from the PC and plugged it in my Gentoo box. I tried to mount it as ext3 file system and got this error: | # mount -t ext3 /dev/hdd1 /jukebox | mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hdd1, |missing codepage or other error |In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try |dmesg | tail or so I then tried to see the partition type with fdisk: | Command (m for help): p | | Disk /dev/hdd: 81.9 GB, 81964302336 bytes | 16 heads, 63 sectors/track, 158816 cylinders | Units = cylinders of 1008 * 512 = 516096 bytes | |Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System | /dev/hdd1 1 15881680043232+ 83 Linux My next step was to try to repair it with fsck.ext3: | # fsck.ext3 -p /dev/hdd | fsck.ext3: Bad magic number in super-block while trying to open /dev/hdd | /dev/hdd: | The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2 | filesystem.

[gentoo-user] new package in an portage overlay tree - howto
Hi, I couldn't find an answer in the developers documentation. How can I add a new package to the portage tree. Say, I'd like to add dev-lang/D for the language D in my overlay tree. Even the very first ebuild Path to my overlay tree/dev-lang/D/D-xxx.ebuild digest says !!! /LOCAL/local/portage does not seem to have a valid PORTDIR structure.

[gentoo-user] ucspi-unix alive?
I just emerged ucspi-unix, and on first trial if failed to recognize some of the options mentioned in its own man page (the -D and -d flags of unixserver aren't recognized, the -U flag fails saying the variable UID is not set, although it is). The home page is alive but it is really dry regarding documentation (not a single example). The ANNOUNCEMENT informs how to subscribe to the mailing list, but a mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] meets a brick wall. The site with the archives http://lists.em.ca/?list=bgware seems to be gone to the twilight zone, too. Anyone knows whether this is just my bad luck or something more permanent?

[gentoo-user] OT: encoding MP3 files for iPod
Greetings; I have acquired an iPodNano and have been playing about with that. I've been able to do everything I need to do using GNUpod, yet there is an oddity. Any MP3 file I encode on my computer will not play. The file is there, the iPod sees it, but when I try to play the song, it simply skips over it. I don't have this problem with MP3 files from other sources. My first guess is that something is different in the encoding process? A few hours of reading man pages and Googling haven't helped any. Suggestions?

Most likely problems are (1) bitrate (2) CBR vs. VBR and (3) metadata location. I don't know exact specs, but the same thing will happen on my iFP-799 if I use a bitrate that is either too high or too low. My iFP also supports VBR, but some devices may not. If you know you are using a bitrate that is supported by your nano, try stripping off all the ID3 tags (and any other metadata), it could be that the contents or location are confusing it. I've fairly sure metadata can be stored either at the beginning or end of the file (I know FLAC can do this) and it's possible, albeit unlikely, that the nano only works with one of those locations. -- 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 pgp7nIRY1lwOw.pgp Description: PGP signature

The keymap specified in xorg.conf is one designed for the extended Apple keyboard (109 keys) in the French language.

Does Control Centre - System Admin - Login Manager - Appearance - Locale fix it? No. One finds only US English there. French is not available. It's the same with Control Centre - Regional - Country and Language. How could one make the system aware of French? However, I have been confused, and I apologize for it: the panel I referred to does not seem to belong to KDE. Actually, I don't know how it came up, and I have not seen it again. Probably something in another X application. There is something else about KDE: when xdm is added to rc-update, the real KDE login panel shows up at boot, and it understands azerty (contrary to what I had found, see above). But it does not recognize the password, replying login failed, so that I have to resort to the console login, and do startx. This is serious: how can I fix it?

Re: [gentoo-user] OT: encoding MP3 files for iPod
quoth the Boyd Stephen Smith Jr.: I've fairly sure metadata can be stored either at the beginning or end of the file (I know FLAC can do this) and it's possible, albeit unlikely, that the nano only works with one of those locations. MP3 Id3v1 tags are at the end, ID3v2 tags are near the begining. Some files have both. As for Flac, this is not true. As one who recently wrote a Ruby library for parsing Flac metadata (and thus read the Flac spec[1]) I can say that all metadata, including the VORBIS_COMMENT block are before the stream contents (ie: the audio bits). The various metadata blocks can be in arbitrary order but always before the actual music data.

Re: [gentoo-user] {OT} dvdrip permissions error, alternative?
That won't work on CSS scrambled discs. You'll copy the scrambled data but not the key. That's not true. The CSS key is in the standard filesystem data, not in some subtrack data. You're right. I read this information some years ago in a normally reliable source, and saw no reason to doubt it as it made sense. bit I've just tried a dd copy and it worked. It failed on the first attempt, but after running lsdvd, it worked for the whole disc, and mplayer played it. What is happenning here is that lsdvd is cracking the css keys via libdvdcss and caching the keys in ~/.dvdcss. If you move the image to another computer, or try to read it as another user, the keys will neeed to be cracked again. dvdbackup doesn't work on The Life of Mammals (and surely others) and dd means bad portability. Are there any other options for a full backup? - Grant -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

[gentoo-user] Portage: Show list of required files without downloading anything?
My mother has a computer which still accesses the internet via a dialup connection. When I do upgrades on her system, I typically grab a portage snapshot from my system, drive up to her house 12 miles away, install it, check to see which packages need upgrading, then somehow figure out (never exactly) which files she actually needs so I can get them, again, from my system, drive those files back up to her house and compile stuff hoping I didn't miss anything too sizable. Question: Is there a way that I can get Portage to run through the packages/ebuilds and, instead of downloading anything from the net, just have it show me which files were not in /usr/portage/distfiles which will be needed? So if I had 8 packages which needed upgrading, which would result in (an estimated) 6,382K of downloads, is there some way for me to have it go through each one of those all at once, similar to --fetchonly, and have it spit out a list of everything which it did not find on the local system? It seems to be simple enough and a useful feature on some level but I haven't found the answer. Thoughts? -Statux signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part

It seems to be simple enough and a useful feature on some level but I
haven't found the answer.
Something like:
# export DISTDIR=$(emerge --info | sed -n 's/^DISTDIR=\(.*\)$/\1/p')
# emerge --fetchonly --pretend --quiet -u world | \
grep -v ^$ | \
while read SRC_URI; do \
filename=`basename ${SRC_URI}`; \
[ ! -f ${DISTDIR}/${filename} ] \
echo ${SRC_URI}; \
done
Thoughts?
You might also consider creating a binhost on your network and bringing binary
packages instead of sources to her computer...

I think the problem was with the lack of alsa-oss :-) Thans for your help Matt 1. Use the alsa-driver ebuild instead of the alsa drivers in the kernel. Unmerge alsa-lib, alsa-utils, alsa-oss and any other alsa stuff you have. 2. Before you emerge alsa-driver, configure your kernel as per the instructions on the alsa guide using the method for alsa-driver users i.e. JUST sound support and nothing else. Then remove your kernel modules directory /lib/modules/whatever-your-kernel-is, rebuild your kernel and install it (make clean, make make modules install, copythe bzImage file to /boot or however you choose to e.g. link it for your boot loader). 3. Clean up /etc/modules.d/alsa. Well, just delete it, to be honest. 4. Reboot with your new clean kernel. You'll probably want OSS emulation, so before emerge'ing alsa-driver, check your USE flags contain both alsa and oss flags. The alsa-driver ebuild will pick up on this. Emerge alsa-driver. You should pretty much be back on track with the alsa guide now, just emerge alsa-utils (should pull in alsa-lib), and alsa-oss as well. Then run alsaconf again. Run alsamixer afterwards.
