Followup [Re: Follow-Up to Key Signing Party]
by Jamie Guinan
Ok, so I did,
gpg --recv-keys ... [everyone's ID from the meeting ]
gpg --fingerprint ...
[ confirm fingerprints ]
for key in ... ; do gpg --sign-key $key; done
for key in ... ; do gpg --send-key $key; done
Now "gpg --list-keys" shows all the keys I expected to see.
And just now I did a "gpg --recv-keys <my ID>" and it said
I had 6 new signatures,
gpg: requesting key 103BA0B0 from hkp server pgp.mit.edu
gpg: key 103BA0B0: "Jamie Guinan <guinan(a)bluebutton.com>" 6 new signatures
gpg: 3 marginal(s) needed, 1 complete(s) needed, PGP trust model
gpg: depth: 0 valid: 1 signed: 12 trust: 0-, 0q, 0n, 0m, 0f, 1u
gpg: depth: 1 valid: 12 signed: 1 trust: 12-, 0q, 0n,
0m, 0f, 0u
gpg: next trustdb check due at 2009-04-16
gpg: Total number processed: 1
gpg: new signatures: 6
I think that looks good.
At some point I'll look into using it for email and other things, but
at least the basics are there.

a) UPS talk? b) APC-w-USB ?
by Doug Mildram
doug> I got an idea for a WLUG talk, having trolled the SW-devel-mail-list
and used sparingly the excellent APC-UPS free sw at http://www.apcupsd.com
I've got a small-enough APC SmartUPS and a laptop or 2 I could do this on.
What I don't have (or can't yank out of the lab here at work)
COULD USE....dont really NEED:
....an APC UPS with the more modern USB port....reasonably small.
(the SW supports serial/"COM1" cable/interface, or USB/HID...
I'm very weak on the HID stuff, but it probably just works.)
So this lure is to see who does have apc w/usb...
and wants to try-and-or-demo this.
and
When's the june meeting ? (I forget what month the party is.)

I think resource settings "reside" in the X server at run-time, so you
could try manually adding those particular ones like so, (with queries
before and after for testing),
$ xrdb -query
$ xrdb -merge ~/.gv
$ xrdb -query
Then run gv again. If it works, maybe you could add it to your
X startup, however that works on your $DISTRO+$DESKTOP+etc...
In the past I've also used ggv, which is gnome-ified gv.

FW: gv & resource file in ubuntu feisty fox
by Bill Mills-Curran
I've searched and have not found the answer to this issue.
gv in the Ubuntu feisty fox distro does not seem to observe the
resource file. In particular the auto-refresh and reverse scroll do
not work.
My resource file is ~/.gv and contains:
GV.reverseScrolling: TRUE
GV.watchFile: TRUE
GV.autoResize: FALSE
This did work on Red Hat FC4, but the same file does not work in
Ubuntu.
Am I doing something wrong or have I found a bug?
TIA,
Bill

Cups, FC6, and networks, oh MY!
by Bill Smith
I have recently acquired an HP LaserJet 4MP. It's connected to the
parallel port of my system running FC6 (with all current updates).
The printer itself works great, so long as I am trying to print from
localhost, but I'd like to share it to the other systems on my
network. (These other systems include WinXP, Mac OS X, etc.)
I've poked around a bit and found pointers on getting cups to work on
other OSs (Gentoo, Ubuntu), but not Fedora Core.
Would anyone have any pointers? I'm willing to post config file
segments, if that will help-- just tell me what you need to see.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm not following this whole thread, but you need a printer entry in /etc/samba/smb.conf to share it with windows folks

Thanks for the thought...
How much is interchangeable between the 4M and 4MP? I know that my
printer doesn't have anywhere for a JetDirect card: it's got a
parallel, AppleTalk, and serial port at one edge on the back, and on
the side, it's got two (empty) memory slots...
I'm mostly wondering what I need to do to get FC6 to share this printer
(that is, the LaserJet 4MP) with other computers on the network.

Well, maybe one more sparc64 question....
by Ken Jones
Jamie,
That posting you sent me is definitely my bug. The only difference is the revision level of media-libs-mesa. The poster claims that his problems were fixed with a emerge --sync the following morning. I have not been so lucky.
-------------You and the bug report told me to eselect opengl. I did and this is what I get.
kjones-sun2 temp # eselect opengl set xorg-x11
shell-init: error retrieving current directory: getcwd: cannot access parent dir
ectories: No such file or directory
!!! Error: Can't load module opengl
Killed
kjones-sun2 temp #
----------I then looked for a relationship between opengl and xorg-x11.
kjones-sun2 temp # locate opengl | grep x11
/usr/lib/opengl/xorg-x11
/usr/lib/opengl/xorg-x11/include
/usr/lib/opengl/xorg-x11/include/glxtokens.h
/usr/lib/opengl/xorg-x11/include/glxmd.h
/usr/lib/opengl/xorg-x11/include/glxproto.h
kjones-sun2 temp #
--------The posting also asked that I check glxproto.h as a logical link.
kjones-sun2 temp # ls -l /usr/include/GL/glxproto.h
ls: cannot access /usr/include/GL/glxproto.h: No such file or directory
kjones-sun2 temp #
--------So I just tried to find glxproto.h. It is real and 75729 bytes in size...
kjones-sun2 temp # locate glxproto.h
/usr/lib/opengl/xorg-x11/include/glxproto.h
kjones-sun2 temp #
kjones-sun2 temp # ls -l /usr/lib/opengl/xorg-x11/include/glxproto.h
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 75729 May 23 18:14 /usr/lib/opengl/xorg-x11/include/glxpr
oto.h
That seems very interesting and pertinent.
I have not the faintest idea what is going on. Do you understand??
Do you know what I need to do to get xorg-x11 installed?

That's actually rather good progress. :)

I found this,
http://www.nabble.com/emerge-xorg-xll--fails-out-at-media-libs-mesa-6.5-r...
See the post from Donnie Berkholz near the bottom, where he suggests
# eselect opengl set xorg-x11
Then try,
# emerge -ptv xorg-x11 [ this will show you what's going to be merged ]
# emerge xorg-x11 [ ok, try again...]
