Not as far as I know.  All my mysql.txt are symlinked to the same one.

Different user, different mysql.txt?

How? What does

If I actually do an apt-get -f install as the message suggests, its

But kvim's package is obviously broken for this distribution.
 

Is there any way to get the RPM database to shuddap about vim already?
   

Install a vim rpm, or a kvim rpm that has proper dependencies.
 

 

Suggestions anyone?  This is supposedly "the" authoritative kvim package.

You know, I have a similar issue.  I have apt--0.5.15cnc6-53.2.rh9.at

I used rpm to install kvim with --nodeps because it depends on vim, and 
vim is not an installable package according to apt-get.  Therefore there 
was no way for me to satisfy the dependency.  Never mind that I do have 
vim installed; I guess that the RPM database doesn't consider any 
particular vim package to be the one called for.

Here's what happens when I try to do an apt-get install vim:
Package vim has no available version, but exists in the database.
This typically means that the package was mentioned in a dependency and
never uploaded, has been obsoleted or is not available with the contents
of sources.list
However the following packages replace it:
 vim-minimal
E: Package vim has no installation candidate
(In short, not satisfiable.)
Anyway, now anytime I do apt-get, I have the following set of nags:
> apt-get upgrade
You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 kvim: Depends: vim but it is not installable
E: Unmet dependencies. Try using -f.
If I actually do an apt-get -f install as the message suggests, its 
brilliant suggestion is to remove kvim, and I don't wanna!  I love vim.

So how do we work our way out of this mess? If I try and use apt-get it
suggests using the "-f" flag and then comes up with a list of half the
rpms on the system to remove.
   

Whenever apt suggests -f (or at least 99.99% of the cases) it is
correct in that you have messed up rpm's internal dependency
consitency (by the use of --nodeps for instance).
Perhaps the solution apt is suggesting is not the best (removing all
your rpms), but it is definitely a cry for your attention. No package
manager can sanely work if the dependencies on board are already
conflicting.
Try apt-get check, perhaps that will point you to the right direction.

[mythtv-users] OT: Second SATA on Promise 376 controller? (Happy holidays!)

2004-12-25 Thread GERALD SCHEPENS
I have an Asus P4PE motherboard with a built-in Promise 376 SATA controller.  I 
boot off an SATA drive but I need more space!  Does anybody know if I can run a 
second drive in a non-RAID mode off this controller?  I just want to add 
another couple hundred gigs without having to totally reformat, etc.

Also, can a person take a non-LVM'd drive such as mine is currently and begin 
using LVM with it and another drive, again without wiping the existing disk?

And finally, happy holidays!

Re: [mythtv-users] Local Host

2004-12-24 Thread GERALD SCHEPENS
Is the settings table the only place that the host name would have to be 
changed?  I actually want to change the hostname on my myth box but this 
particular issue has made me hold off on it.

[mythtv-users] mythfrontend must run as root?

2004-12-05 Thread Gerald Schepens
Unless I run mythfrontend as root, it dies after registering MythMusic
as a media handler.  This started with the last apt-get that updated
myth (less than a week ago).  Before this last update, I could run the
front end as  a regular user.  Now, it scales the backdrops and whatnot,
and then disappears with a floating point exception.
The mythfrontend log, when run as a regular user:
004-11-29 23:57:45 mythfrontend version: 0.16.20040906-1 www.mythtv.org
2004-11-29 23:57:45 Enabled verbose msgs : important general

2004-11-29 23:57:48 Registering MythMusic Media Handler as a media handler
Then mythfrontend crashes with a floating point exception.
Below is the mythfrontend log when I run mythfrontend as root.
2004-11-30 00:02:02 mythfrontend version: 0.16.20040906-1 www.mythtv.org

(etc... things proceed as usual here.)
I have mythfrontend running as suid root, for root (redundant, I know)
and users in group mythtv, which is the group for the user that
experiences the floating point exception.
# ls -l /usr/bin/mythfrontend
-rwsr-sr-x1 root mythtv1690672 Nov 27 19:17
/usr/bin/mythfrontend
Couldn't find anything more recent than June about this on the web or in
the list so I thought I'd send a message.  Any ideas on how to fix
this?  Code issue, or can I tweak my setup?
