[gentoo-user] nfs error: "permission denied" when executing a command

2007-07-18 Thread Marco Calviani

Hi,
 i have a problem with NFS. A partition mounted on machine gentoo1 is
correctly exported and mounted in gentoo2 (that is, it is possible to
read and write on it). However whenever i try to execute a program
from gentoo2 that it is stored on the exports of gentoo1, i get the
"Permission denied" error. What can be the cause of this?

This is my /etc/exports located on gentoo1.

/pippo0  gentoo1(sync,no_subtree_check,rw)
/pippo1  gentoo1(sync,no_subtree_check,rw)

and this is the gentoo2 /etc/fstab relevant part:

gentoo1:/pippo0  /pippo0nfs  rw,user,auto00
gentoo1:/pippo1  /pippo1nfs  rw,user,auto00

Any help would be appreciated,
thanks in advance,
marco

[gentoo-user] 32bit apps on 64bit gentoo - fonts error

2007-08-31 Thread Marco Calviani
Hi,
  i'm running on Gentoo 64bit. I've just upgraded the system, and in
particular i went to version 10.0 of emul-linux* libraries. This
created a problem with 32bit binary applications such as
mozilla-firefox-bin and mozilla-thunderbird-bin (and also acroread),
in parrticular for what concern fonts (see attachment).

Anyone has a clue for this issue?

[gentoo-user] Problem with CPU temperature (Santa Rosa CPU)

2007-10-09 Thread Marco Calviani
Hi list,
   i have a Santa Rosa (Core 2 Duo T7300) Acer AS5720 laptop, and i'm
getting problems with the temperature of the CPU. In particular i'm
using the coretemp module for determining the core temperature.
Normally (using cpufreqd and the "ondemand" governor) the CPU stays at
nearly 50C  (which i think is quite high since in windows , using Core
Temp it gives about 30C).
While compiling this increases up to 95-100C (after which it shuts
down). The problem is that the fan is not spinning up at all!
What can be the cause of this behaviour? consider that i'm using an up
to date system with gentoo-sources-2.6.22-r8.

Any help appreciated,
Regards,
Marco

Re: [gentoo-user] Problem with CPU temperature (Santa Rosa CPU)

2007-10-10 Thread Marco Calviani
Hi Volker,
  i'm attaching my kernel .config. As you can see all the ACPI related
points are enabled.

> posting your config? make menuconfig and reading the help-text to all the
> acpi-options?

Thanks, i've found fancontrol, but since the laptop lacks some chipset
to control the fan itself, the /etc/fancontrol is not created.

I've realized that the temperature given in the
/proc/acpi/thermal_zone/TZ01/temperature is more or less random at a
given machine startup and it does not change while the machine is on.
When it start at a temperature above 60C, the fan starts (and never
switch off) but the cores temperature remains low (~35C). If it's 0C
or 50C or something below this threshold, the fan does not switch on
and the core temp increases up to 100C.
It would be nice to be able to link the fan control directly with the
coretemp and not with the ACPI thermal zone

Re: [gentoo-laptop] Re: [gentoo-user] Problem with CPU temperature (Santa Rosa CPU)

2007-10-10 Thread Marco Calviani
Hi Beso,
  sorry i misunderstood your suggestion. I did what you suggest and
this is the result of the trip_points:

critical (S5):  100C

which i suppose is the reason why at that temperature the laptop switch off.
So, nothing except for the critical state. Should i have to add there something?

An additional problem is this:
doing a
$ cat /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/TZ01/temperature
it gives only a:

temperature: 0C

My question is:
even if i change the polling frequency, how the fan can start if the
temperature gives 0??
Do you know if it's possible to link the fan start with the core
temperature instead of the ACPI thermal zone?

m

Hi Beso,

And of course acpitool gives me a random ACPI temperature:

  Battery #1 : charged

  Thermal zone 1 : ok, 40 C

PS: i followed all your suggestions concerning the microcode and fan

Could this be a problem of DSDT?

Hi Beso,
   i have an Acer Aspire 5720. I've tried with the acer_acpi, it
compiles well but when it comes to loading it fails, saying
"No or unsupported WMI interface, unable to load".

However as far as i can understood, this module deals with issues of
buttons and hotkey not with ACPI issues.

Yes, my DSDT failed during recompiling, but i have managed to solve
the issues, and now it compiled well (with warning but i'm not
caring). I'll try to recompile the new DSDT in the kernel, maybe it
could help (but i'm not sure).

As far as i know unfortunately the Travelmate 5720 exists, together
with the entry level Aspire 5720... I've tried also the new version
and the load error appears at the same level.
I've mailed Carlos of acer-acpi, let's see what comes out.

Thanks again for your help,
i'll let you know about the improvement of this situation,

Re: [gentoo-laptop] Re: [gentoo-user] Problem with CPU temperature (Santa Rosa CPU)

2007-10-13 Thread Marco Calviani
Just to give a short update:
1) no luck with the acer_acpi module: it does not load in the system,
as the developer is having a look at it. However he told me that the
module can do practically nothing on the thermal zone since this last
point is controlled fully by ACPI
2) i've tried to modify the DSDT table: it had errors, but also after
correction the system behave in practically the same way. I've mailed
to the acpi-linux mailing list, hoping that the acpi gurus can try to
solve the issue.
As far as i understand now it is just a matter of ACPI implementation.

m

Beso,
   yes i'm always staying in powersave mode.. but in any case the
CPU temperature tends to increase. I hope that the ACPI guys will work
on this (hoping i'm not the only one experiencing these problems). The
fans unfortunately are masked to the user in most Acer laptops, and
they are controlled fully by ACPI.

Thanks again,

"nice" ??? ; )  I think you might be able to get a binary from realtek

 i'm running gentoo with a US keyboard layout. However i would like
to add also a russian layout (with cyrillic fonts), to be used either

this enabled i've got only "". Then i've tried also to add  this
section

   Option "XkbLayout""us,ru"
   Option "XkbOptions"   "grp:alt_shift_toggle,grp_led:scroll"

Anyone can give me some hints on how to perform this operation?

[gentoo-user] Double network cards

Hi list,
  i would like some technical advice concerning the possibility of
mounting two network devices on the same desktop computer. One network
card (which is binded to a fixed IP) allows me to allow the machine to
be visible on the public network, while the second one (faster, the

install both of them, with the first one used only for accessing the

its only use), since the other address is masked behind closed

From hardware and driver side of the problem: Yes, of course. The other
question, and you really didn't clarify on this, is whether your
intended routing setup would work with such a configuration. But since
Linux is extremely configurable in that regard, you probably can
archive sensible results. Just specify a bit more information, like the
networks (address/netmask) coming into play here.

If both of your NICs are routing to the internet and you're offering
services to the internet, the answer packets from those services will
always take the route w/ lowest metric by default. You'd have to mark
the packets e.g. w/ iptables on a user or application basis in order to
influence routing so that outgoing "service traffic" takes another way
than outgoing "other traffic". But don't hesitate to tell more about
your intended setup, it'll get probably easier to help you then.

# emerge -va1 dev-lang/python dev-python/python-fchksum

If this still happens after that I suggest you file a bug at bugs.gentoo.org.

[gentoo-user] Modify emerge --resume

2006-10-17 Thread Marco Calviani

Hi list,
  i was running an emerge -e world while emerge stuck on a package
(that was openinventor). The problem was that with the modular X, the
"testing" version was necessary. Now i would like to resume the emerge
process, but however with emerge --resume, Portage wants to install
the older version.
How is it possible to force the newer one?

[gentoo-user] ATI Radeon (Mobility) 9700, Xorg 7.1 and AIGLX

2006-10-20 Thread Marco Calviani

Hi gentooers,
  i'm running a Centrino machine with an ATI Radeon Mobility 9700
card using the ATI proprietary driver.  I would like then to try the
opensource (R300) driver, since this also supports the AIGLX
extensions (at least i think, http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_AIGLX).
However:
1) i don't understand if these opensource drivers are actually in the
Xorg tree or i have to use an external CVS repository (from
http://www.gentoo.org/news/en/gwn/20061009-newsletter.xml it seems
they are in the stable tree);
2) if with these drivers the DRI can be enabled or not;
3) if there exists a definitive howto to help users install these
drivers (http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_DRI_with_ATi_Open-Source_Drivers
is updated?);

Thanks to all,
Marco

[gentoo-user] libGL issues & AIGLX slowness

2006-10-22 Thread Marco Calviani

Hi all,
  i've managed to install the radeon opensource drivers on my Radeon
9700 laptop (with also direct rendering enabled). However, whenever i
launch a 3D application the following error appears:

libGL warning: 3D driver claims to not support visual 0x4b

In addition to this i've tried to enable AIGLX, it works (that is it
starts), but it is VERY SLOW, and i think this is related to the
preceding error.

NB: i'm not using any overlay, just what is normally available in Portage.

Any ideas or experiences on this?

[gentoo-user] AIGLX responseness (WAS: libGL issues & AIGLX slowness)

2006-10-29 Thread Marco Calviani

Hi list,
 the slowness of AIGLX was due to the fact that i was running
xorg-server without enabling the aiglx flag. After having enabled it
xorg started running with AIGLX (using compiz or beryl).
Although the system is quite usable there is still an issue: i thought
the system would have relied completely on video card acceleration.
However whenever i run an AIGLX effect such as the cube or just window
moving the CPU goes up to 80-90% during all the time the effect is
running. This behaviour makes the system A LOT less responsive than it
is without AIGLX.
Is this a known issue?

Thanks a lot,
MC

well, you're probably right since i've seen the same behaviour also in

Re: [gentoo-user] AIGLX responseness (WAS: libGL issues & AIGLX slowness)

2006-10-30 Thread Marco Calviani

Hi Iain,


I think it can depend on the driver.  With some versions of ati-drivers,
the CPU is used to help the GPU, and I get great frame rates.  With
other version of ati-drivers (including 8.28.8 and 8.29.6) the cpu
usages stays low for all 3d, and I get crap framerates...

don't know if this is your issue, but it sounds similar.


actually i'm not running with the ati proprietary drivers, but instead
with the opensource drivers included inside Xorg 7.1.  I've read
somewhere that AIGLX doesn't works with ati-drivers

Re: [gentoo-user] udev-103 and blacklisting

2006-12-22 Thread Marco Calviani

Hi Nelson,


Can you divert output to /dev/null?

Or cron a job that chops out all those errors?


Those are good ideas, but i'm questioning how is it possible to mark
stable a so important package that has such "improvements" over the
previous stable one, without good amplification of the changes

There must be a solution for the blacklist other than those!

However thanks for your reply, i'll do that until a solution for the
problem is found!

[gentoo-user] MPICH2 and errors....

2006-12-25 Thread Marco Calviani

Hi list,
  i'm compiling a program that uses the MPICH2-provided libraries.
However during installation i'm getting the following error:

Hi list,
  i would like to report that i've solved this issue by using, as a

Fortran 90 compiler.

[gentoo-user] USB freezes the machine...

2006-12-31 Thread Marco Calviani

Hi list,
some days ago i've upgraded to udev-103 (stable version). Since
then i've experienced complete freezes of the machine (nothing
responds, even external ping on the network) when USB devices are
mounted. In case nothing is connected to the USB drive the machine can
stay online without *any* freeze.
The only thing i've done is to create local udev rules to facilitate
the mounting of these devices: this is an example of its structure. As
you know as of udev-089 some keyword has changed (as SYSFS--> ATTRS).
Before this upgrade everything was working correctly.

SUBSYSTEMS=="usb",KERNEL=="sd*",ATTRS{serial}=="634418122141473",ATTRS{product}=="128MB",NAME="%k",SYMLINK="chiavina"

The emerge --info is in the attachment.

Any one has experiences such an hard lock?

Regards,
and have a nice 2007,
m

Re: [gentoo-user] USB freezes the machine...

2007-01-01 Thread Marco Calviani

Hi Richard,


Marco, if you suspect this at all, you can set RC_COLDPLUG=no in
/etc/conf.d/rc to completely disable module loading by udev.



actually the variable is set that way with RC_COLDPLUG=no. I've tried
with similar USB drives, and the behaviour is the same. I've tried to
blacklist again the module usb-uhci that was in the
/etc/hotplug/blacklist (now not read anymore) in the
/etc/modules/my-aliases file, but the result is the same.

so perhaps search in this way

Re: [gentoo-user] USB freezes the machine...

2007-01-02 Thread Marco Calviani

Hi all,


I seem to recall that loading multiple USB controller drivers can
cause problems on some systems.  You might try unloading all of these
with rmmod, then loading just one, and see if your drive will work.  I
believe for most systems the ehci_hcd driver would be the preferred
one.

Posting your dmesg output might also help.



It's more that one year that i have gentoo installed on my laptop and
other desktop computers. Everything was working very well with these
three controller 'til now In my system uhci is required by the USB
mouse for it to work. I've tried to unload ohci (so keeping ehci (USB
2.0) and uhci (USB 1.1)) but the system keeps freezing.

As the attachment you can find my dmesg.

m

yes they are working an a Win machine and on a machine with Debian stable (3.1).


Could you give us the model of your material ? I don't remember, it's a hard

yes it's an hard drive. The fact is i'm experiencing freezing with the
two external HD i own... they are really different, one is a Lacie HD
and the other is a 2.5" HD contained in an external case.

2007-01-07 Thread Marco Calviani

Hi,


So just try same think with "sync" and tell us if it work ...


no same situation even with sync. After some time it get freezed.


Perhaps a bug on kernel too, try another kernel : vanilla-sources for
example
vanilla has no gentoo patch, perhaps a bug in this, need to try
Do you use genkernel ? or make kernel conf yourself ?


Well i've not tried with a vanilla kernel, since i think this problem
is due to some kernel bug since i've tested the setup with a
non-unistalled old kernel 2.6.15 at it has the same behaviour.

I've tested also all the possibilites you've told me but still no
result. I've used a bit the gentoo live-cd and the problem didn't
showed up.


let's try all this so

have fun

;-)

[gentoo-user] [OT] Filename modification with suffix

2005-12-29 Thread Marco Calviani
Hi list,
   maybe this question is a little bit related since it regards non
Gentoo-specific topics.
I would like to add a specific suffix to a list of files. For example
i have files of the type:

duck1.jpg
duck2.jpg
duck3.jpg

and i would like them to become:

donald_duck1.jpg
donald_duck2.jpg
donald_duck3.jpg

Does somebody knows a simple way to do this via shell?

Thanks in advance,

Ok my card id is 4e50. I've search for it in the drm_pciids.h file and
i didn't found the appropriate card. Indeed i've found the 4E50 card
which is, as the one i have, a rv350 radeon card. However that
different capital letter is making me think that something is
different over there...

But another question come up on my mind: should we use instead of the
in-kernel drm support the one given by the x11-drm package?

[gentoo-user] cups problem-like ...

2006-01-07 Thread Marco Calviani
Hi list,
   i'm experiencing strange cups behaviour: i'm accessing the cupsd
setting both via web interface (localhost:631) or via the KDE printer
control modue. However since two days i'm experiencing long load time
of the all stuff: every action i'm trying to execute nearly 10 seconds
are needed for the program to accomplish. If i'm using the KDE control
modules nearly every time the module stops and i have to kill the
kcontrol program.

What can be the cause of this behaviour?

Secondly i've tried to add some local udev rules as a file called
10-local.rules. Even if i'm not touching anything related to the
printers, if i use this file together with the 50-udev.rules standard
file (not touched) in the KDE control module i'm not getting any of
the standard icons (Print tp File (PDF), Print to File (PostScript)
and so on...)

Thank you for your help,

[gentoo-user] libGL.la error + ATI's libGL.la empty (rss-glx compile error)

2006-01-08 Thread Marco Calviani
Hi list,
   i'm trying to compile the rss-glx screensaver of a kernel
2.6.14-gentoo-r5 machine with ati-drivers version 8.20.8
During compiling i'm getting an libGL.la error:

libtool: link: `/usr/lib/libGL.la' is not a valid libtool archive

The libGL.la driver that is given by the ati drivers is empty
(/usr/lib/opengl/ati/lib/libGL.la), and obviously using the one given
by xorg-x11 (/usr/lib/opengl/xorg-x11/lib/libGL.la) remove the 3d
acceleration.
Is this a bug of the ATI drivers or is my fault?

[gentoo-user] rss-glx + KDE + kscreensaver problem

2006-01-08 Thread Marco Calviani
Hi list,
   i'm trying to install the rss-glx screensaver and i'm using the KDE
window manager.
After a successful installation i can see the kscreensaver entries in
the "Screen Saver" section of the kcontrol module. However when i try
to test the screensaver or tweak the screensaver with the setup option
nothing happens.
Looking into more details in the .desktop links that define the menu
entries, it appears that it is searching for two programs "kxsconfig"
for the setup and "kxsrun" for the run part, that are actually non
existing in my machine

Here's an example for the solarwinds saver:

#cat /usr/share/applnk/System/ScreenSavers/solarwinds.desktop

[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Exec=solarwinds
Icon=kscreensaver
Type=Application
Actions=InWindow;Root
Name=Solarwinds (GL)

[Desktop Action Setup]
Exec=kxsconfig solarwinds
Name=Setup...

[Desktop Action InWindow]
Exec=kxsrun solarwinds -- -window-id %w
Name=Display in specified window
NoDisplay=true

[Desktop Action Root]
Exec=kxsrun solarwinds -- --root
Name=Display in root window
NoDisplay=true


Any ideas?

PS: they are working well if one calls them directly on the command line
(i.d. /usr/lib/misc/xscreensaver/solarwinds)

Ok. Sorry to all it was my fault.
I compiled some time ago kdeartwork-kscreensaver without
xscreensaver. so the kxsrun and kxsconfig binaries were not
created. Just enabling the xscreesaver USE flags has resolved this
issue.

so let me understand: changing from the ipw2200 external-provided

KmPg2 you can find here http://www.kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=29587
It's a Kommander script so you must install it before using it. It

[gentoo-user] [OT] gentoo experiences with wireless router Sitecom WL-114

2006-02-03 Thread Marco Calviani
Hi list,
  i'm currently using a wireless Sitecom router WL-114 with my ADSL
Netgear modem, and eveything works smoothly. However i have two
problems:
1) as of the printed manual the WL-114 supports the WPA cryptography
option. But using the web interface program it does not appear as
options.
2) i'm not able to upgrade the firmware to newer versions: it seems to
upgrade succesfully but, after rebooting, the router appears to have
the same older version.

Does anyone experienced any of this?

Best regards,
MC

[gentoo-user] system freezes....

2006-02-03 Thread Marco Calviani
Hi list,
   i'm a Travelmate 8005 laptop user, running an updated gentoo box.
I'm routinely experiencing system freezes 1 or 2 times every two days,
without an apparent cause; everything stops, starting from mouse to
keyboard, so that it is impossible to restart the system.

The system logs of the system does not suggest anything particular
except for this:

hdc: drive_cmd: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
hdc: drive_cmd: error=0x04 { AbortedCommand }
ide: failed opcode was: 0xec
hdc: drive_cmd: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
hdc: drive_cmd: error=0x04 { AbortedCommand }
ide: failed opcode was: 0xec

which however i think it is related to cdrom issues.

# uname -r
2.6.14-gentoo-r5

(PS: i have a radeon 9700 video card wuth the latest (8.21.7) drivers)
# fglrxinfo
isplay: :0.0  screen: 0
OpenGL vendor string: ATI Technologies Inc.
OpenGL renderer string: MOBILITY RADEON 9700 Generic
OpenGL version string: 2.0.5582 (8.21.7)

I know that these infos are completely insufficient but i don't know
where to start.

Best regards,
MC

do you mean that i have to set the umaskirq option also for cdrom? I
had it set with hdparm only for my primary hd, that is /dev/hda.

[gentoo-user] [OT] K8M800 via video card support

2006-02-14 Thread Marco Calviani
Hi list,
   i would like to buy a motherboard which uses a K8M800 chipset. Does
Xorg drivers offers 2D/3D acceleration for this card? Anyone has
experience with it using gentoo?

Best regards,
MC
