Re: [gentoo-user] Looking into zip files

 Hi,
I wonder if anyone knows of a GUI app that can display the
 hierarchy in a large zip file - maybe hundreds of directories, tens of
 thousands of files and a couple of gigs of zip - without actually
 unzipping the archive and using up both time and disk space.

Extra points for a program that can extract just a portion of the
 zip file, like a single directory and its contents thus saving me disk
 space dealing with this.

 Thanks,
 Mark

Midnight Commander can do that.

Re: [gentoo-user] Very bad system response

 Hi List,

Hi Michael,

Good to see yoou on the Gentoo list! :-)

 I have a very strange thing here. I don't know when this started, but my
 feeling is, that it was around kernel 2.6.15 and it's getting worse with
 each version.
 From time to time my system comes to a complete halt, that means not a
 single application shows any response to mouse and/or keyactions, sshing
 into it takes forever. After a while (up to ~30s ) normal reaction is back
 again. Strange thing is, there is no activity at the times this happens.
 Reading email and browsing the web is all that is needed. CPU is at 3-5%
 according to top, mem has ~1GB free according to free.
 I can somehow force this behaviour by doing some harddisc io, eg untaring a
 kernel-tarball. But it does not happen everytime I do this.
 This is really, really annoying. I have no idea, if this is a kernel, a FS
 or any other issue. Any help with this is most welcome.
 Some additional info: fs is xfs, kernel is 2.6.19-gentoo-r4 and I'm a
 KDE-User, but this also happens with xfce4 ;)

I had this problem back with older 2.6 kernels and the problem turned out to 
be caused by XFS.
XFS is not a good choice for a desktop, as for my experience.
I bet the problem will be gone once you switch to ReiserFS or ext3.




 Thanks,
 Michael

Cheers,

[gentoo-user] Gentoo way of handling pre-built kernels

2007-02-23 Thread Robert Szentmihalyi
Hi list,

I have successfully deployed Gentoo on about 30 desktop PCs in a corporate 
environment.
Now, as I need to update the kernel on those PCs, I wonder if there is a 
standard Gentoo way (maybe a script or something), that people are using to 
build and deploy binary kernel packages.
Any ideas?

Thanks,
 Robert

[gentoo-user] Gentoo kernel and NFS groups limitation

2006-08-23 Thread Robert Szentmihalyi
Hi,

does any of the Gentoo kernel sources in Portage contain the nfs-ngroups patch 
(http://www.frankvm.com/nfs-ngroups/)?
I'm looking for an easily maintainable solution to bypass the NFS limitation of 
16 groups per user.

Thanks,
 Robert

[gentoo-user] VMware and KDE with HAL support

2006-08-11 Thread Robert Szentmihalyi
Hi,

I keep getting this very often:
 ~ $ vmware
libhal.c 644 : Error connecting to system bus: No reply within specified time
libhal.c 644 : Error connecting to system bus: No reply within specified time
 ~ $ 

VMware won't start whenever this happens. In fact it  does more often than 
not...
Has anyone experienced this?

TIA,
 Robert

  Howdy,
 
  I'm gearing up for a new hardware purchase and I find that I need a
  little help figuring out what is and what isn't linux compatible.

 For the most part today, this isn't really a concern [1].  Most
 motherboard chipsets, network cards, USB controllers, IEEE1394
 controllers, etc are all supported, it is just a matter of selecting
 the right kernel options.  The exceptions are mostly wireless chipsets
 and graphics cards.

According to NVidia's list, as far as I can see, the nForce5 chipset is not 
supported...
Does anyone have any experiences with that?


 The major problem today is the graphics card.  If you don't mind
 proprietary drivers, nvidia is the way to go.  Just make sure you get
 a card supported by their current (not legacy) drivers [2].  If you
 don't want proprietary drivers, ATI Radeon 9250 boards are still
 available and well supported, although I don't know about PCI-e
 versions.  Intel integrated graphics chips also have excellent
 support, although I have never used one so I can't comment on the
 performance.

 For wireless, Intel has excellent linux support.
