You probably don't have a correct /etc/conf.d/net file.  Try:

A WPA supplicant is a process which negotiates keychanges for WPA.
wpa_supplicant is not the only WPA supplicant package available;
there's also NetworkManager and wicd.

Also, while you've improved your posting form significantly, and
that's greatly appreciated, it'd be even more helpful if you learned

Re: [gentoo-user] Issue 3 - CD Playing

[Colleen Beamer]

This is solved.

The solution came from posting to KDE forums.

It was a configuration issue:

In System Settings, I had to select "Device Actions", "Play Audio CD
with KsCD, select Edit, select "the devices property Available Content
must equal Audio, choose "Property Match"for the parameter type,
"Optical Disk" for the Device type, "Available Content" for the Value
name and Equals Audio.

That did the trick!

[gentoo-user] Balky mounting of external devices

[Walter Dnes]

  This has happened to me with a few different external devices (USB
keys, etc) on multiple computers, so it seems to be a generic problem.
Right now, I have an HTC Desire HD with the smae problem...

* Either hit {CTRL}{ALT}{F12} to switch to tty12 or else (as root) execute
  "tail -f /var/log/messages"

* Attach a device to the PC's USB port, and you'll see a bunch of stuff
  spewing out.  In my case, the last 3 lines are...

Oct  7 20:50:23 localhost kernel: [114416.426175] scsi 26:0:0:0: Direct-Access  
   HTC  Android Phone0100 PQ: 0 ANSI: 2
Oct  7 20:50:23 localhost kernel: [114416.426336] sd 26:0:0:0: Attached scsi 
generic sg3 type 0
Oct  7 20:50:23 localhost kernel: [114416.432119] sd 26:0:0:0: [sdc] Attached 
SCSI removable disk

* If I try mounting /dev/sdc1 (either as ordinary user or root), it's
  not found
* "fdisk -l" doesn't even see /dev/sdc

***BUT***

* as root "fdisk /dev/sdc", and quit immediately

and now "fdisk -l" sees /dev/sdc, and regular user can mount it.  Has
anyone seen this before... and more importantly, found a solution?

I can see about its loglevel or strace.

I have a lot of volumes, so I didn't send the output, but I think it
uses sysfs or something.  I saw one post which said something removing
something from grub, but no solution was there.

is there a specific reason that you do not post the output of the df
commands?

normally it's full HD or running out of inodes.
searching the web i found one other guy having this problem a year ago,
not reproduceable, no solution provided and in german:
http://forum.ubuntuusers.de/topic/console-kit-daemon-warning-failed-to-add-moni/#post-2513925

are there other error messages regarding console-kit or with "no space

can you maybe strace the console-kit-daemon or run it verbose or
increase its log level and see what it does when it prints this message?

I'm not stupid.  I've checked that.  If alsamixer or kmix were muted, I
wouldn't be able to play and hear CD's in kaffeine, which I can.


You might also use euse to find the status of the 'cdda' USE flag and
which installed packages are affected by its presence or absence.

(Pretty sure I remember this being mentioned by someone before, but
still worth looking at again)

cdda is one of my GLOBAL use flags so, anything that needs it should have it
compiled in automatically.

The main part of my question was if it was a bug that kscd does not create a
kscdrc file when launched like every other kde application does.

I am old fashioned in this regard. I have ~500 LPs and some more CDs and

Of course my computer is connected to it, so I can listen to mp3s using this

Doesn't seem so. I looked really, really hard to find this setting anywhere,

I think, that this is gstreamer related. Colleen uses phonon-gstreamer, 
whereas I use phonon-xine, because I had only bad experiences with the 
gstreamer phonon-backend.

NetworkManager and wicd are pretty much wpa_gui with a

whatever your dhcp client is.
And, to some degree, netplug.

Yes, cheap printers have expensive ink (how else are the OEMs going to make 
money)?

I recall reading a comparison study some time ago where different printers were 
compared to each other at various price points.  Expensive ink and 
unnecessarily wasteful printing-head cleaning cycles were the two main causes 
for not jumping on the first cheap printer on sale.

My experience with HP has also been trouble free.

Yes, your AP is operating in 'master' mode, while your PC's wireless NIC 
operates in 'managed' mode since it is a wireless client.

Good.  :-)

The "I'll leave it up to you" is not an encryption *key*, but a passphrase.

Have you looked at all at the man page for iwconfig?  Read what it says under 
key/enc[ryption]:

"... Passphrase is currently not supported."

This means that you need to use the corresponding hexadecimal or ASCII 
encryption key.  The router should show what this is when you login in its 
administrative GUI.

Alternatively, you can try running a script like this to generate a md5 hash - 
no guarantees that it will work with your AP (different vendors have different 
implementations:

#!/usr/bin/perl
# Perl script to convert a passphrase to a WEP key.
# By Aki Mimoto

use strict;
@ARGV or die "Usage: $0 passphrase\n";
print generate_key( @ARGV ), "\n";

sub generate_key {
# --
require Digest::MD5;
return substr Digest::MD5::md5_hex( substr( shift() x 64, 0, 64 ) ), 
0, 26;
}


Make it executable (using chmod u+x name of file) and then run it with your 
passphrase.  Note, I just found this on Google and have not tried it myself.  
I would always use a hex or ASCII key instead.

Ideally though, I would not be using WEP encryption which all of the above 
applies to, because it is not secure.

PS.  You haven't told us if the AP is using WEP, but you have used a WEP 
command to enter your encryption key - so I'm giving you here a WEP related 
answer.  ;-)

FWIW, I don't have this cable and my kscd has no "extras->settings &

in your link (has yours?), but it plays audio-cds just fine from my SATA-drive.

NetworkManager and wicd uses wpa_supplicant, they don't replace it.

A WPA supplicant is a process which negotiates keychanges for WPA.
wpa_supplicant is not the only WPA supplicant package available;
there's also NetworkManager and wicd.

Also, while you've improved your posting form significantly, and
that's greatly appreciated, it'd be even more helpful if you learned
to bottom-post rather than top-post.

What encryption method is used by the AP? The method you described
only kinda works for WEP. If the AP is using WPA or WPA2, you need a
WPA supplicant.

We have a SAMSUNG CLP-315 here at the office. I've managed to print to
it over the network from CUPS, so, yeah, it works. If you want color
presentable for anything more than powerpoint, though, go with an
inkjet over the SAMSUNG, or go with a higher-grade color laser from
someone else. There's no ICC profiles for these printers that I can
find, and the print dpi is terrible.

That said, the CLP-315 supports IPP out of the box, which makes it
trivial to add as a network printer from both Linux and Windows. It
certainly has that going for it. You'll want to set up two different
logical printers, though, one for color, one for black and white.
Otherwise, the printer will engage the color toner cartridges for b/w
print jobs, decrementing their life counters even if toner wasn't
really necessary for them.

Samsung colour laser printer?

not the latest model, was cheap to begin with. Works with cups. Works better

I've got an HP LaserJet 1220, that works brilliantly.  It knows
Postscript so there are no hassle with "drivers", postscript is what
Unix apps produce when they want to print.  I've had it for 6-7 years
and haven't had to buy toner yet.

[gentoo-user] XEmacs build hangs loading update-elc.el

[Mike Edenfield]

I'm trying to build XEmacs on my laptop (Hardened ~amd64), and it appears to
be stuck near the end trying to load and/or execute "update-elc.el" (it's
been on this step for approaching 6 hours now). This happens every time I
attempt to build xemacs (I've re-synched and restarted the build multiple
times.)

 

I thought it might be related to having PaX in my kernel, but when I
switched softmode on, the build actually segfaults almost immedately!

 

Is it supposed to be taking this long for this step, and if not, what can I
do to see why it's locked up?

 

The last thing on my screen is this:

 



./xemacs -nd -no-packages -batch -l

libpng14 doesn't exist. probably because it was updated and broken .la 
files are still present.


eselect news list

and read the item about libpng15.
everything you neeed to do is described there. short version: delete all 
.la files under /usr/ which contain "png14" then do revdep-rebuild.

Normally it should be ok after you re-run revdep-rebuild.
If webalizer depends libpng with version 1.2, and revdep-rebuild doesn't
repair the dependency, then you have to install libpng 1.2 manually. And
it is a bug.

Install libpng-1.2, libpng 1.2 and 1.5 can co-exist.

I tried it from the Sabayon overlay and it does a decent job of
identifying some cruft, but not any Gentoo-specific cruft.

I hadn't realised it was now in the main portage tree, but why have they
put it in sys-fs FFS?

Nice looking printer, but it hardly meets the OP's criterion of
inexpensive :-O

Michael, you have said whether you want laser or inkjet, colour or mono,
MFP or just printing, but I'll second the recommendation for HP gear.
They provide Linux drivers that integrate with CUPS and work reliably IMO.

After updating world, webalizer fails like this:

revdep-rebuild wants to emerge webalizer but it fails with:

geoip emerges fine.  Does anyone know how to fix this?

It's in the overlay because the ebuilds are not ready yet and are still

You need to post farther back than this.  Sometimes it fails farther 
back than expected.  See if you can find "Error 1" and then go back at 
least a couple dozen lines.  That *usually* is far enough.

Kyocera printers are very nice. I have a FS-1030D which doesn't have
ethernet as standard however I purchased it as an option. Mine is a
fairly basic device though it supports IPv6, POP3/SMTP, SNMP, and a
whole bunch of other stuff. Really happy with mine. Had it for about
3-5 years I guess.

[gentoo-user] Gnome 3 is stable?

[Nilesh Govindarajan]

The gnome project's latest stable release is gnome 3.2
Why don't we have a proper method to install gnome 3.2 yet in gentoo?
Using overlays is pretty messy and requires lot of work

I've made some bad (strange) experiences with printers connected via 
USB (under CUPS).

Therefore, I've bought a Kyocera FS-1028MFP.

It has an ethernet connection built in.
I can print duplex, copy duplex (even a duplex document feeder)
and has a scanner (even in color), sending the file via ftp.

Kyocera is known for very low operating costs.

Have you tried without vesa, or uvesa?  Have a look at setting up KMS like 
this and then forcing the console resolution as explained here:
