[gentoo-user] OT - Need more help with Asterisk
Can anyone give me a simple easy-to-understand place to start for setting up Asterisk? All I want it for is for Caller ID and to drop calls from certain phone numbers. I have a US Robots data/fax modem. Asterisk is running (as evidenced by ps ax) and the phone line is plugged into the computer. I know this is correct because I can dial out with kppp. Someone suggested that I look at my modem's manual for how to do this; my modem did not come with a manual, and I am not at all hardware-savvy. Others have written back and suggested alternate hardware. My wife and I have $25.00USD to last us the rest of the month, It's like this every month, so I can't exactly buy new hardware. I have to work with what we have. I called our home number (the number whose phone line is plugged into my computer) from my cell phone while sitting at the asterisk CLI command console. I heard the phone ring on the other extension, so I typed 'answer'. Asterisk came back with No one is calling us Meanwhile the phone was still ringing. I've googled for asterisk tutorials, but I can't seem to find anything that's basic enough for me to understand. Please help. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

I'm trying to follow the pdf in the link you sent me. On page 79 it lists some stuff to add to /etc/zaptel.conf (I emerged zaptel): The zaptel.conf file located in /etc/ is used to configure your hardware. The following minimal configuration defines an FXO port with FXS signaling: fxsks=2 loadzone=us defaultzone=us After configuring zaptel.conf, you can load the drivers for the card. modprobe is used to load modules for use by the Linux kernel. For example, to load the wctdm driver, you would run: # modprobe wctdm If the drivers load without any output, they have loaded successfully.* You can verify that the hardware and ports were loaded and configured correctly with the use of the ztcfg program: # /sbin/ztcfg –vv The channels that are configured and the signaling method being used will be dis- played. For example, a TDM400P with one FXO module has the following output: Zaptel Configuration == Channel map: Channel 02: FXS Kewlstart (Default) (Slaves: 02) 1 channels configured.

[gentoo-user] Almost Completely OT - Hacking the Telephone Adapter
My wife and I signed up with Vonage VoIP service last week. They sent us a telephone adapter to plug into our DSL modem/router that would allow us to use our analog phones with Vonage. Since it's plugged in to our router, I found its IP address and scanned it with nmap. The thing allows http and ssh access. nmap said the adapter runs Linux with a 2.4.x kernel. I played around some with the web interface after discovering the username and password. I'd really like to view some of the configuration settings and maybe see exactly how OUR adapter translates analog data into digital data, plus I've never looked around an embedded system before, but the username used for the web interface is not an actual account on the adapters OS. I'd like to look around in there, but I don't the names of any of the accounts, and even if I did, I don't know the password. The only way I know that the username I used to get into the web interface is not an account on the system is because I can view the system log from the web interface. I own the adapter; it's sitting on my desk beside me. I just want to explore the filesystem. Is there any way I can get in?

I know I could use Google, but I don't know how to phrase my query. I know that all this could be accomplished with ssh, but is there a simpler way? Bonus question: blossom has a TV card.

[gentoo-user] Need more help with remote access of local X server
Last month I started a thread on this list about setting up an arrangement so that my wife's computer running Red Hat 9 would be able to access my X server. I was referred to the Gentoo LTSP guide. I followed the guide and set it up. It worked great for about a week and then it just kinda stopped.

The cursor can be moved around, but the screen remains blank otherwise. Since she is using RH9 (which reached its end-of-life years ago) and she never installs new software on it (a.k.a it never changes) and my Gentoo system is updated every night, I thought the problem must be with my computer. I went back through the LTSP guide and checked everything - it all looked right. I've checked the X windows log files on both machines, but didn't find anything.

[gentoo-user] OT - How to work with USB DVD-RW/CD-RW drive
My internal CD-R drive has been experiencing steadily worsening power fluctuations over the past year or so. I haven't been able to write CDs in Windows in months, but until recently could still write them in Gentoo. I ordered a Pacific Digital USB DVD-RW/CD-RW drive on August 1 and it came in today. I'm not quite sure how to go about using it though. I mainly use xcdroast for writing CDs (I make daily backups and write them to CD once a week.) I use GNOME, and although my new drive shows up in the computer:/// nautilus listing, it is not available to be selected in xcdroast - it's not listed at all. I don't even know where to start looking for the solution to this problem. Can anyone help me? -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

The first package in the emerge is xcdroast, which is good because that's what I use to write CDs (and DVDs if I can get this to work.) emerge wanted to download the file xcdroast-0.98_alpha15_new_configure.tar.gz for xcdroast, but no gentoo mirror I've looked at has it.

Google and the vsftpd.conf man page were no help... Pleae be aware of how FTP works: there are two connections per user - one is the control port and one is for data. With active FTP, the user's FTP client picks a local port number for the data port. With passive FTP, the server picks a data port number and tells the client what port number to use. Obviously, your router and/or firewall needs to be configured to allow both types of ports into your LAN and to forward the ports to the correct place. Passive FTP is better from a firewall point of view but your firewall still needs to know to open the port for incoming connections. If you firewall is not capable of doing that then this wont work and you may need to put you FTP server outside of your firewall in a DMZ. The user can login with his username and password and get a listing of his home directory just fine (as I said above) so I don't see how this could be a firewall issue. Nevertheless, I checked the firewall and port forwarding settings in my router. TCP port 21 is forwarded to port 21 of 192.168.1.2, which is my server box. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Its gotta be starting in the init scripts somehow, and if its not in /etc/init.d/mysql I would check for other scripts starting it. # grep mysql /etc/init.d/* I ran /etc/init.d/mysql stop and it stopped without error - all of them.

Here is the response I got that fixed it: Michael, I've had the same problem before. In order for Mailman to work properly, it has to know the gid of the mail program at compile time. In this case it was told the mail program's gid was that of group mailman, but when the script was executed it was with the gid of group deamon. The easiest way I've found (and possibly the only?) to fix it is to use vigr to get the gid of the daemon group, then edit the mailman ebuild file. Right near the top of the file is an option for setting the mail-gid. Change that number to the one you found from vigr, then re-emerge mailman. Keep in mind that you'll have to repeat this procedure every time you upgrade mailman because the new ebuild won't have your changes in it.

OK. I'm using mythtv-0.19_p9163-r1. I have a few questions: First of all, it takes a really long time to register any kind of database action (around five seconds), so if I say to record a program, or to not record a program that is set to record, it takes a really long time for it to register. Is there any way I could speed it up? Secondly, I have no sound in MythTV - at least when watching LiveTV. Is there something else I have to set up? I have perfect sound in xmms. I use alsa. How can I get sound in Myth? Thirdly, what happened to the buffering aspect when watching LiveTV? I don't want LiveTV I watch to stick around forever taking up space, and I don't want to have to delete the programs I watch in LiveTV manually inside the interface, or outside in the shell. Is there a way I can get the old behaviour back? Fourthly, when I'm looking at a listing, I'd like to see the callsign (ABC, FOX, Disney, etc, etc) instead of the channel number. Is this possible?

This file is part of libkdegames. Which KDE version are you running. If you've switched from 3.4 to 3.5, you need to change the path to the cards in KPat's settings. Either use the menu or edit .kde/share/config/kpatrc. I'm running KDE-3.5.2 . Here's the deal; A couple of weeks ago I had to completely wipe my hard drive and install everything again, so I don't think it's a switching issue. However, I might re-merge libkdegames... -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
Re: [gentoo-user] [OT] MS debug equivalent

I've been using debug.exe (a little program for work with asm) at my college to learn about assembler and related concepts. Does anyone know some equivalent for linux? Thanks! -- Rodrigo Lazo (rlazo) I remember DEBUG.EXE - I used to use it to change the copyright text in COMMAND.COM from Microsoft Corp to MSullivan Tech. I don't know of an equivalent (I assume you want something interactive), but could you use nasm? -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
