[gentoo-user] Network configuration - Two ips one from dhcp & other static
Well, the title tells the question clearly; how do I configure network such that the first ip is obtained via dhcpcd and other is static? config_eth0="dhcp " doesn't work. As a solution I wrote a dhcpcd hook containing /sbin/ifconfig eth0:0 netmask Is there a direct way? -- Nilesh Govindarajan http://nileshgr.com
[gentoo-user] No access to encfs-encrypted directory
Hi, On a extf4 formatted partition I have two directories (beside others, non encrypted ones): .crypt crypt .crypt contains the encrypted data. I then mount the encrypted partionas as root with mount -t ecryptfs /home/user/.crypt /home/user/crypt -o ecryptfs_cipher=blowfish,ecryptfs_key_bytes=56,ecryptfs_passthrough=n,ecryptfs_sig=,ecryptfs_fnek_sig=,ecryptfs_unlink_sigs,key=passphrase (I blanked the sigs before posting) This worked like a charmbut... A local power fail switches my PC off while the encrypted directory was mounted. After rebooting I still was abler to execute the command given above successfully, but two diorectorie below the directory 'crypt' show like this: drwxr-xr-x 6 mccramer users 4096 2012-01-07 05:05 . drwxr-xr-x 11 mccramer users 4096 2012-01-07 06:47 .. d? ? ?? ?? .process drwxr-xr-x 2 mccramer users 4096 2008-09-07 03:41 BlenderLostAndFound drwxr-xr-x 2 mccramer users 12288 2011-10-31 04:16 NEWARCS -rw-r--r-- 1 mccramer users 0 2006-01-01 07:00 RENDER d? ? ?? ?? logdata Trying to cd into logdata or .process fail.

I think I've found one item so far that requires udev. My laptop's graphics chip needs a binary blob from radeon-ucode. That binary blob, in turn, requires the presence of /usr/lib/libudev.so.0 which is a symlink to /usr/lib/libudev.so.0.9.3 (which is also required). I can emerge udev move or copy the 2 files over to /root unmerge udev move or copy the 2 files from /root to /usr/lib/ and it still works. Note that /usr/lib/ is a symlink to /usr/lib64 on my 64-bit gentoo. -- Walter Dnes

Try Settings/Configure and then add new account, or fire up kcmshell4 kcm_akonadi and add resources as desired. However, as the e-news item says KDEPIM 4.7 is really borked right now. Most people have recommended to move to T'bird, Claws, or mutt. Having wasted more than a day to make the mess (that KDE is fast descending into) work in any acceptable fashion, I have stopped using KDEPIM on that box and masked it from infecting any of my remaining boxen. When I learn to use mutt (unfortunately learning how to use it efficiently is still standing between me and my messages) I will stop harbouring hopes for KDE forking into some light- version DE, with no databases, file indexers or any other such bloat that reminds me the worse of MSWindows, only more buggy! -- Regards, Mick signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.

I rebuilt only gloog-ppl and that fixed the problem for me. In order to get that done, though, I had to remove the -floop-* flags temporarily because cloog-ppl gave the error that Peter describes.

If you just want to temporarily share then I think "access point" is unimportant - can't you use "ad hoc" mode? "Access point" means getting a wifi card which supports master mode. Not all do. I question whether this is worth the bother - routers are just too cheap. If you want to do something complicated, which is not available in the menus of your $20 wifi router, then run OpenWRT Linux on a $40 router. The extra cost of a recent router will quickly pay for itself in electricity savings, over leaving your big desktop PC on when you only want to surf the net on your netbook. Stroller.

E.g. for the update 3.2.0 -> 3.2.0-r1 I just do cp /usr/src/linux-3.2.0-gentoo/.config \ /usr/src/linux-3.2.0-gentoo-r1/.config pushd /usr/src/linux-3.2.0-gentoo-r1 make oldconfig make -j5 cp arch/x86/boot/bzImage /boot/3.2.0-gentoo-r1 make modules_install EDIT /usr/src/grub/grub.conf rm /usr/src/linux ln -s /usr/src/linux-3.2.0-gentoo-r1 /usr/src/linux re-emerge some modules which look at /usr/src/linux, like (in my case) x11-drivers/ati-drivers app-emulation/virtualbox-modules \ sys-fs/fuse sys-power/powernowd x11-drivers/radeon-ucode \ sys-process/iotop sys-fs/btrfs-progs Helmut.
[gentoo-user] gentoo-sources-3.2.0-r1 and genkernel
Dear All, I updated my system and there is a new gentoo-sources version 3.2.0-gentoo-r1. I reconfigured my system to use this kernel and I compiled the kernel with genkernel. But there is no compiled file under /boot directory. Did I missed something? Is there anything new in genkernel? Should I report it? What I did: - upgrade my system - set up the kernel using eselect - genkernel to compile the kernel Thanks in advance!

I am almost certain you are running into this conflict: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=388235 So try keywording version 0.1.8: it has been available since last August, and I think it is stable enough (except for some silly bugs like https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=387125 ).

I then paste the string, which happens to be the -*-times-medium-r-*-*-14-*-*-*-*-*-*-* into my xpdf incantation xpdf -font -*-times-medium-r-*-*-14-*-*-*-*-*-*-* and I get the chosen font for the interface elements. You can alternatively set the X resource xpdf*fontList using the method described http://xwinman.org/resource.php (basically add to ~/.Xdefaults or ~/.Xresources the line xpdf*fontList: -*-times-medium-r-*-*-14-*-*-*-*-*-*-* and restart X [? I am not sure if that is necessary, memory suggests that this file is only read when X starts, but my memory could be faulty]) W -- Data aequatione quotcunque fluentes quantitae involvente fluxiones invenire et vice versa ~~~ I.
