I just built a system using a Q9300 (45nm quad core) and decided to give OC a try. Bumped the clock from 333MHz to 400MHz causing the CPU freq to increase from 2.5MHz to 3.0MHz. DDR2-800 memory not OC'ed. Core temps under 4 core 100% load using burnP5 only increased from 71C to 73C. This was with stock Intel heat sink/fan/thermal paste (just the way Intel wants it). I just ordered a XIGMATEK HDT-S1283 to lower these. IMO, it looks like the Intel 45nm processors have some easy OC headroom. YMMV. Have fun, Roy -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list

That's not the default. The default is a bright grey (on a white background or whatever you have - background isn't set in Knode). > Who on Earth wants these things to disappear when read? I'm fine with the default. I don't care that much about read threads. I actually like, that the default for unread threads/articles is black. This way, they stand out more, which I really like, as it draws attention to unread threads/articles first.

[gentoo-user] Gentoo Universal PPC ISO size?
Hi, I'm going to put Gentoo on my Mac Mini. No one ever uses the machine for anything. So much for OS X I suppose. Anyway, the 2008 beta, located here: http://gentoo.osuosl.org/releases/ppc/2008.0_beta1/ is 745MB which doesn't fit on 700MB CD-Rs I have. Are there CD-Rs larger than 700MB? I looked online anf everything seemed to be 700MB also. Or am I supposed to write this to a DVD even thought the Gentoo docs say it's a CD-R image?

[gentoo-user] How Bad Is This...?
I'm in the process of installing a new box, last night before going to bed I
started installing xorg server. This morning, I found the 82nd build (out of
162) had failed with the following error:

it is a seagate. Harddisk problem is VERY probable. You posted a lot of

your filesystem got damaged. Your kernel might be in Lalaland dancing with the

not really. Since the system is hosed anyway, dmesg first (maybe save the
output on a different device). Then try sysrq-keys (alt+printscreen+e,i,u,b).
Boot from cd, check fs. Check harddisk with smart.

the best alternative is to check what went wrong, but since Seagates are known
to die in the first couple of days - or almost never, this gentleman here

Looks like there's two rules pointing to the same
device:
# PCI device 0x10de:0x00df (forcedeth)
SUBSYSTEM=="net", DRIVERS=="?*",
ATTRS{address}=="00:e0:18:99:88:77", NAME="eth0"

SUBSYSTEM=="net", DRIVERS=="?*",
ATTR{address}=="00:13:8f:33:32:e2", NAME="eth1"
>From a forum I learned to rm the link eth0 in
/etc/init.d and make a new one, eth1 that points to
net.lo. So now the ethernet is up but there's still a
lot of complaining on the boot console, "can't find
eth0" etc.
BTW I was wrong about mii, forcedeth *is* the
appropriate module. The confusion arose because I was
expecting eth0 to be set up.

They are different devices, notice the MAC addresses, but in the same PCI
slot. Have you changed cards at some time. The easiest way out is to
delete the file and let it be recreated for the card you now have.

Most likely the stars and asterisks difference is because your 2 desktops are using different themes.

Never was a card. This is an on-board ethernet, just
as previously. More background: this is a new mobo and
new video card but the same cpu.
The new combo booted fine, everything mounted but
needed to be tweaked, naturally.
I took the opportunity to replace the 2.6.20-r6 kernel
with the 2.6.23-r6
Somehow, the OS(udev?) still thinks it's using the old
ethernet plus the new one...guessing here.
I noted also a broken runlevel with regard to net.eth0
which I deleted.
Hopefully that's the fix. Should know next boot. But
doesn't explain(at least to me) why eth0 is now
defunct. If all I have is one ethernet port, doesn't
that default to eth0?

[gentoo-user] Kernel Panic Troubleshooting when machine is not avaiable directly
Hi,
I've been having kernel panics on a not-so-regular basis (server was
running fine for 30 days, then had a panic, again fine for 2 months or
so then panic'ed again). Problem is, the machine is far away and I
don't have access to the screen. So far I've changed syslog-ng to
record emergencies not to /dev/tty8 and console(root) but to files
destination emergency { file("/var/log/emergencylog"); };
destination else_all { file("/var/log/evrelse"); };
(...)

#line above ends all the log statements so it's basically a catch-all
Is this enough to record the msg dumps when it would panic again?
Also, I have no idea as to what's causing it, since it's so irregular.
I'm running Linux undine 2.6.23-hardened-r7-undine
(Just had to recompile kernel and tried to fix around stuffs + remove
the things I didn't need hoping it'd be the panic cause)
grsec is enabled and logs most things, with most security enabled
(minus the parts for TCP connections)
PaX is also enabled

No, not if that name is already in use, the message "udev: renamed eth0 to eth1" is the consequence. Udev renames the device, so every config file referring to eth0 showed up errors. If you now delete the file that fixes net names the card will take first slot and be named eth0. You'll have to take back that runlevel link.
