Actually, if it's for you using eclipse (and not many users on the computer 
using if) I would recommend downloading the latest version from the eclipse 
web site (it's only a matter of opening a tar file) and installing any 
plugins you like through their update manager. you'll get much more updated 
versions without having to play with "/etc/portage/packages.keywords".

If I remember correctly "--check" only checks the filesystem, it doesn't
repair it. you have to check the exit status (echo $?) to see if it's
'0'. it not you have to run reiserfsck --fix-fixable to correct the
problems. 

I hope I'm not mistaken, but you should read the man page before doing
anything. it's been a few years since I last used reiserfs.

HI

you have to have "NameVirtualHost *:80" before the first virtual host.
then the VirtualHost directive should be as follow:

ServerName www.mydomain.com
...


you have to do the same with ':443' if you want SSL virtual hosts.

the above instructions are for VirtualHosts running on the same IP. if
you want to run each virtual host on a separate IP you have to discard
the 'NameVirtualHost' directive and replace the '*' with ipaddress in
the 'VirtualHost' directive.

If you're using shorewall for iptables, you can configure tc through it.
If this is a ppp connection you can put it in /etc/ppp/ip-up.local. I
have this line in ip-up.local for very basic traffic control:

/sbin/tc qdisc add dev ppp0 root tbf rate 85kbit latency 50ms burst 1540

so every time the connection starts it limits the queue sent to the
modem.

check out also the history command in bash ('help history'). it has some
commands to write or append the current history to a file (I never used
it, just looked at the man page).

if it works you can have alias to 'history -a $HISTFILE
&& /sbin/reboot'. of course you have to check the history options.

when you press reboot the shell process dies, so it doesn't save the
history. if you want to save history you have to exit the shell and then
login and enter reboot, or press ctrl+alt+del.

not really. I don't use blackdown jdk so I don't know about any problems
with it, but I do use sun-jdk, and I don't have any problems with java.

do you have WIPE_TMP="yes" in /etc/conf.d/bootmisc? if not (and you
don't have any other means of cleaning /tmp, chances are you have too
many files in /tmp (e.g. every movie you ever viewed with firefox).
you can change the setting like the example above and reboot the machine
and it'll clean you /tmp.

note however that every boot will completely wipe out every file you
have in /tmp.

As I said in my email, you can try to download and install webmin,
create a new webmin user, let him see only the (I think) sysv module,
and check if you can configure it to show only the script you want.

having said that, I still recommend sudo for this kind of jobs...

I think you can safely ignore that (unless you're running java
applications that use sound/alsa). the java packages are binary, that
means that you don't compile it according to your use flags, you install
the "whole package", so some libraries (like libalsasound.so) will
complain if you don't have alsa support. I'm having this problem with
opera and libXm but I just ignore it.

btw, is there anyway to tell revdep-rebuild to ignore a package? it's
really not comfortable to run revdep-rebuild -p and then manually
re-install the packages that complain (because I don't want it to
re-install opera every time).

a very nice application to manage hardware/software/etc.. but I just
don't like php, and I don't want to install it on my production server.

Your problem seems to be in CMFPhoto. somehow it tries to list files in
'/root' and it fails because it doesn't have permissions. either it's a
configuration problem, or it's a bug (I see that both zope and plone
you've installed are testing versions).

you can stop zope, chdir to the '/bin' and run "./zopectl
-i'. when you enter the controller shell type 'fg' and it will try to
start zope and show you the messages (if you have debug enabled in your
configuration).

Have you tried it as a different user? does it happen only with your
user? if so, maybe renaming $HOME/.gnome2 (and maybe copying the files
that you need) will solve this.

Sorry for the late response, but I only saw your question now :(

I gues you can put it in the startup script for the application you want

[gentoo-user] using more then one sound card

2005-04-25 Thread Haim Ashkenazi
Hi

I just bought a new pc with intel i82801 on-board. I want to add my SB!
Live card, but I don't want to disable the on-board one. I want all
applications to use the SB!Live by default and only specific
applications to use the intel card. 
how can I achieve that? is it enough that I'll config the SB!Live as
snd-card-0? do I have to configure every application which sound card to
use?

You have alsa support compiled into the kernel, so alsa-driver won't
compile. if you want to emerge alsa-driver (which is probably more
recent the the kernel drivers) you should disable alsa support in the
kernel configuration.

[gentoo-user] korganizer 3.4 and timezones

2005-04-20 Thread Haim Ashkenazi
Hi

I've just finished migrating my old PC (debian unstable) to my new gentoo. 
(almost) everything works great :)

The only problem I have is with korganizer. I replaced the default "ics" file 
with my old one, but it doesn't take into account the timezone and daylight 
saving time, so I see all the meetings 3 hours earlier. the computer shows 
the same timezone (IDT), I compared the korganizer and "Time and Date" 
settings one by one and they are the same. I even copied the entire old 
".kde" folder to replace the new one, but it doesn't help.

on both computers I have kde 3.4.

any ideas? (I don't feel like manually changing all my appointments)

Thanx

[gentoo-user] questions regarding cyrus-imap, postfix and invalid headers

2005-04-10 Thread Haim Ashkenazi
Hi

I've decided to give cyrus/postfix a try (at the moment I'm using 
qmail/vpopmail/courier). while trying to copy my email from the current 
server to the testing one via kmail, it rejected many emails because of 
invalid headers. searching google I found that the problem is in the "From" 
header which doesn't have a ":" after it. I also found that this problem 
happens when transferring mail through 'deliver'. 

When searching for a solution I found a few not very elegant ones (piping the 
message through procmail/sed), and a broken link to a patch...
so I was wondering how do you deal with the problem. is there a better 
solution (does piping the message through amavisd fix the headers?)? also, 
how do I transfer the messages I have in maildir format (I couldn't find any 
conversion utility, and transferring through a client doesn't copy a third of 
the emails because of invalid headers).

thanx
