Comments:
<0> spunx, ffs i mean what directory
<1> whatever i define.
<2> jesseboy: no i don't see how you could
<3> is there a check command in gentoo to look at the consistency of your RAID array. specifically like this: check >> /sys/block/mdX/md/sync_action
<3> is that a command you can emerge?
<1> yes
<4> jesseboy: cat /proc/mdstat
<5> jesseboy: you can add a disk to a raid5 using evms. and if you replace the disks in the raid with larger disks u can use mdadm to make the raid use the extra space
<2> jesseboy: cat.... what |rt| said
<6> amusing. i've got all of these in seperate sessions running as the same user on one box via NX: gnome kde twm , yes i'm bored
<2> theklone: ooh evms++
<2> must play with that again
<2> i used to have a howto on my website for gentoo+evms
<5> jesseboy: it must be done offline though, and it can take a while depending on how large your volume is
<3> i know about the cat mdstat stuff but the command I listed earlier does a consitency check on the RAID array. /proc/mdstat just shows you if the raid is intact
<4> jesseboy: unsure....maybe some mdadm command will force a consitency check
<7> guys, i am doing an emerge world on my system but dont want kde-base/certmanager-3.5.2 to be updgraded to -r1 so i added =kde-base/certmanager-3.5.2 to /etc/portage/keywords but still portage is trying to upgrade it.
<2> jesseboy: you can get mdadm to run as a daemon and mail you when there are problem
<7> so i meant /etc/portage/package.keywords
<3> i'm looking at this page guys and seeing the stuff at the bottom: http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Gentoo_Install_on_Software_RAID
<2> trumee: you want package.mask
<3> on data scrubbing
<7> where should i add =kde-base/certmanager-3.5.2 ?
<3> With a modern kernel, >=2.6.16, this command will initiate a bad block check, reading all blocks and attempting to rewrite bad blocks:
<3> it says all that
<6> look into secure deletion toolkit, i think it's in portage as srm
<8> is there an easy way to compile a new kernel (say 2.6.16.16) with the settings I already made with menuconfig in my current kernel (2.6.15) ?
<6> zeroth404: yep, make oldconfig
<7> cornet:thanks
<2> jesseboy: ffs that howto is awful
<6> that will inherit it, and ask you about the differences
<6> er, new options
<2> jesseboy: use mdadm for creating raid stuff
<9> jesseboy: there is a way to grow a raid5 with the newest mdadm and kernels. It's the --grow option in mdadm. I have no experience with it, but I know it's pretty new
<10> Does anyone know how i can put my own pic in the background?
<11> zeroth404: try make oldconfig
<8> Fieldy, sweet. anything more to it?
<10> of term
<12> whiteghost: which term?
<8> Fieldy, do I have to specify a specific kernel source directory?
<10> the shell term
<10> like for bash
<6> zeroth404: it uses the .config in the current working directory, typically /usr/src/linux
<2> whiteghost: xterm/eterm/gnome-term/konsonle ??
<12> whiteghost: like outside of X?
<8> Fieldy, thanks so much!
<10> i just cat the file
<3> this looks like what you must do http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_setup_evms
<13> Hey, does anyone know how I can speed up my IDE-harddisk? (dma is turned on but -> Timing buffered disk reads: 4 MB in 3.29 seconds = 1.21 MB/sec)
<12> mzbot: wiki whiteghost framebuffer
<14> whiteghost: http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Framebuffer:Bootsplash:Grubsplash
<15> anyone use lilo in here ?
<16> in grub if you have a sata hard drive, do you have to change hda3 to sda3?
<6> hrm. I'm running gnome-2.14.1, and when I try to start epiphany I get an error box which says "Startup failed because of the following error: Unable to determine the address of the message bus", any tips on how to solve this? I logged out and back in, and still get it. (I've already asked ##gnome , no response -- yay for ## channels)
<15> and can tell me whats wrong with this append line
<13> evillase, yes
<15> append=video=vesafb:ywrap,mtrr,1024x768-32@80 splash=verbose,theme:emergence
<16> reinhart: it gives me an error when i restart
<13> wish error?
<17> richiefrich, for splash you also need CONSOLE=/dev/tty1
<5> richiefrich: tried quoting it?
<18> hello world
<16> reinhart: sec i gotta restart again
<13> ow
<15> theklone, no
<15> Draconx, even for lilo, ok
<13> Hey, does anyone know how I can speed up my IDE-harddisk? (dma is turned on but -> Timing buffered disk reads: 4 MB in 3.29 seconds = 1.21 MB/sec)
<5> richiefrich: dont know if its necessary but mine are quoted
<15> theklone, i'll try that
<15> theklone, u use lilo
<5> richiefrich: yes
<13> my sata's work fine though
<15> can i see your append line please
<15> theklone, ^^
<19> Hi
<15> hi
<5> richiefrich: vga=0x318 and on a new line, append="root=/dev/md1 elevator=cfq video=vesafb:ywrap,mtrr"
<19> can i launch X apps from ssh ?
<20> BabaLi: Yes
<19> kaarlo, how ?
<17> BabaLi, if you enable X forwarding, either in ssh config or with the -X option
<21> in nano - how do you tell it to save your file as 'unix' format and not 'DOS' formatv ?
<19> Draconx, ok
<15> theklone, whats that --> root=/dev/md1 elevator=cfq
<17> robinp, it will save in unix format... it might not if its already dos format though, in which case you should dos2unix it
<20> BabaLi: Umm, try ssh -X somebox.tux.org first to see if the configs are already ok.
<21> Draconx: yeah - i did something accadentally and now for some reason its saving in DOS format
<5> richiefrich: you prob have your root on its own line and elevator changes the schedular
<17> robinp, you can always just dos2unix the file after saving, although that might get annoying if you keep having to do it
<22> robinp, even new files?
<15> theklone, ok can i ask u this --> LILO's bitmap hids the menu and all, minor technicalities is that the timer and OS labels are still displayed. I dont have a framebuffer, theres something wrong with those lines in the config file.
<15> theklone, if u know?
<23> hi al,l
<21> ficklef00: no - just a particular patch - which is annoying cos i get a heap of " (Stripping trailing CRs from patch). " when I apply it
<19> kaarlo, if i launch gtk apps i should see the window on my desktop ?
<17> robinp, have you run dos2unix on the patch?
<20> BabaLi: yea
<19> kaarlo, i go konqueror: cannot connect to X server
<5> richiefrich: i dont have a bitmap set, just a simple menu
<21> Draconx: don't have dos2unix
<15> theklone, ok thanks
<17> robinp, emerge dos2unix unix2dos
<20> BabaLi: ok. did u try ssh with the -X option?
<19> kaarlo, yes
<22> robinp, oh, well did you open it in an X editor of some sorts
<17> BabaLi, does the server you're connecting to have X forwarding enabled?
<19> Draconx, i don't know how can i enable it ? or check if it is ?
<21> ficklef00: no - only nano - i must have done some weird key cobination accadentally
<22> write a perl script that will strip it for you..
<22> :)
<2> robinp: if you have vim ; vim <file> :set ff=unix :wq
<17> BabaLi, i only know how to check if it is as root, /etc/ssh/sshd_config
<21> thanks cornet
<2> robinp: (***uming you are familar with vim)
<23> i have to install from stage1 on a em64t cpu. may I use amd64 stage? thanks
<17> bogomips, yes
<19> Draconx, i am checking
<23> tnk a lot
<21> cornet: yep - im all over it
<2> robinp: if you see loads of ^M chars at the end of lines then do, :%s/\n\r/\r/
<16> reinhart: its a vfs error says can't do something with sda3 please append correct root=
<2> robinp: and yes, that is a \r at the end (stupid vim)
<19> Draconx, i have to turn this (#X11Forwarding no) to yes then
<8> Fieldy, is it ok to use oldconfig for upgrading from 2.6.15-r1 to 2.6.16.16-r7? gento wiki says thats "not appropriate"
<24> sometimes, gentoo wiki ****s ;)
<17> BabaLi, the # is a comment so if that's commented it should be on, but drop the # and say yes, restart sshd and see if it works. Use xclock as your test program
<25> zeroth404: can't think why that wouldn't work
<19> Draconx, ok thx :-)
<26> zeroth404: you can use oldconfig for anything, but the more different the config file is from what the new kernel is expecting, the more like 'make config' it'll look
<6> zeroth404: i am not sure why they would say that, i've used oldconfig countless times
<16> reinhart: do you have to change root (hd0,0) to root (sd0,0) too?
<13> evillase, are you using evms?
<13> no, don't change (hdx.x)
<8> alrighty
<16> cause right now i have root=/dev/sda3
<16> and its complaining about that
<3> anyone been successful with evms?
<13> you might want to change (hd0.0) to (hd0.2) then
<27> should I use qt3 or qt4 with psi?
<13> grub starts counting from 0, the rest form 1
<28> I have a wireless nic using wpa_supplicant which I am autostarting linked to lo and it keeps saying at boot to run depscan.sh which I do and it does nothing
<17> coder2000, depscan.sh --force, i believe
<16> reinhart: so change root (hd0,0) to root (hd0, 2)?
<16> reinhart: i am not using evms
<19> Draconx, yeah it's working :-)
<17> BabaLi, cool
<13> evillase, yep, but without the space ( -> root (hd0.2) and -> kernel /boot/your-kernel-version root=/dev/sda3 )
<13> i'm sorry, it's (hd0,2) in stead of (hd0.2)
<13> does anyone know how I can speed up my IDE-harddisk? (hdparm sais dma is turned on but -> Timing buffered disk reads: 4 MB in 3.29 seconds = 1.21 MB/sec) [sata's work fine]
<3> rein how old is the disk?
