[gentoo-user] fallback dns servers
Hello all, I am setting up a way to have my laptop automatically get a correct ip address. When I am at my office, I have a fixed ip; at home (on a private network) I use dhcp. I know I can use quickswitch for that but I want something really automatic, so after some search I ended up with this in my /etc/conf.d/net: iface_eth0="dhcp" ifconfig_eth0=( "dhcp" "194.199.136.151" ) dhcpcd_eth0="-t 30" ifconfig_fallback_eth0=( "194.199.136.151 netmask 255.255.255.0 " ) ipaddr_fallback_eth0=( "194.199.136.151 gw 194.199.136.250" ) This works great, but as dhcp overwrites /etc/resolv.conf, when I go back to my fixed ip my dns servers are not the ones I need (still the ones I use at home). My dns names for office are set in /etc/resolv.conf.fac. Is there a way to have the machine know which dns servers to use?

Well, as my question is not answered yet, let me reformulate what I need in a shorter way: I want to execute "ln -sf /etc/resolv.conf.fac /etc/resolv.conf" *before* /etc/init.d/net.eth0, so that if I am at the "fac" (my office) location I have these dns set up, but if I am home with dhcp the resolv.conf file will be overwritten. Should I add a script in /etc/init.d for that, or is there something simpler? cheers, -- Jean Magnan de Bornier | email: jean-at-bornier.net -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

[gentoo-user] Strange dmesg
Hi all, I have a strange message at boot, appearing at various places; then typing dmesg, I get the same message many times repeated, with nothing else: drivers/usb/input/hid-core.c: input irq status -75 received 261 lines of that in dmesg! I switched kernel at least one time since it began some time ago.

[gentoo-user] wireless problem
Hello all, Using a Dell latitude x1, dual-boot with w$ xp; on my campus they have a wireless network which I can access with my mail login and password. It works without a problem on w$. On my gentoo I installed wpa_supplicant with the following item in the conf file: network={ ssid="Universite Paul Cezanne" identity="mylogin" password="mypassword" priority=5 } Here mylogin and password are also (of course) what I enter to access the network when on w$. When I type "iwconfig" I obtain this: eth1 IEEE 802.11g ESSID:"Universite Paul Cezanne" Mode:Managed Frequency:2.412 GHz Access Point: 00:12:DA:AE:5A:50 Bit Rate=54 Mb/s Tx-Power=20 dBm Retry limit:7 RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off Power Management:off Link Quality=91/100 Signal level=-37 dBm Noise level=-80 dBm Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0 Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:5350 Missed beacon:0 Seems to indicate I am actually connected? But then I can't access the network (firefox doesn't find anything). Maybe it the identity/password which is not correct? Thanks for any help, -- Jean -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Etaoin, what you say about unpacked souces is not right: Packed sources are copied to PORTAGE_TMPDIR (by default it is /var/tmp/portage) and unpacked + compiled there, and the compilation process sometimes uses a *lot* of disk space. When this is finished the files are *not* deleted, so if you want to free some space it is good to delete all files in PORTAGE_TMPDIR (it is safe to be in this dir to issue the rm command), and you can also delete the packed sources in /usr/portage/distfiles, but if you have to reinstall something, then you would have to download the package again. cheers, -- Jean Magnan de Bornier |Cours Victor Hugo e-mots: jean at bornier.net|13980 Alleins France T 08 70 39 34 03 |P 06 09 17 35 87 -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

[gentoo-user] xml mode for emacs
Hi all, I emerged nxml to edit xml files with emacs; it works great, but when I open an xml file it is sgml xml-mode, I have to switch to nxml by hand; this seems to be new since some time ago nxml was the default mode. In the site-gentoo.el file which is generated every time a packet from app-emacs is installed, I have the following: ;;; psgml site-lisp configuration (autoload 'sgml-mode "psgml" "Major mode to edit SGML files." t) (autoload 'xml-mode "psgml" "Major mode to edit XML files." t) (setq sgml-catalog-files '("CATALOG" "/etc/sgml/catalog")) and later: ;;; nxml site-lisp configuration (add-to-list 'load-path "/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/nxml-mode") (load "/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/nxml-mode/rng-auto.el") (setq auto-mode-alist (cons '("\\.\\(xml\\|xsl\\|xsd\\|rng\\|xhtml\\)\\'" . nxml-mode) auto-mode-alist)) These instructions seem contradictory, how should I eliminate the first instruction? tia -- Jean Magnan de Bornier |Cours Victor Hugo e-mots: jean at bornier.net|13980 Alleins France T 08 70 39 34 03 |P 06 09 17 35 87 -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

[gentoo-user] Strange feature in eix
Hi all, Using eix for some time (at least a year now), I discovered today (eix-0.5.5) a very strange feature which and in less perfect world than gentoo's might perhaps qualify as a bug. If I type "eix " and the package is unstable (or has unstable versions) and appears as such in the gentoo database, I expect to see it -for the unstable versions- in eix's output: the man page says so anyway; but this happens only if I have not marked the package with "~x86" in *my* /etc/portage/package.keywords file. If I mark the package (with "~x86") eix tells me : * app-editors/emacs-cvs Available versions: 22.0.50-r1 22.0.50-r2 [M]23.0.0 Installed: 22.0.50-r2 Homepage:http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs Description: Emacs is the extensible, customizable, self-documenting real-time display editor. and this is a *big lie* (works with any package apparently).

There is this option in /etc/init.d/fetchmail which says that the config file is /etc/fetchmailrc: -f /etc/fetchmailrc (it is in the middle of the file); but if you remove it I think only /root/.fetchmailrc would be searched, and I guess you don't have it and it's not your problem. > | I'm not panicked about this any more because I have decided to use | the relatively painless webmin to configure the ~/.fetchmailrc's | and | schedule cron jobs. even though it isn't exactly what I wanted.
