Packages

In order to use acoc you should start it with

for example, or you can create an alias like this:

From amavisd-new-2.5.2-1 we no longer use a random uid/gid, but dedicated ones. Because of this amavis service will not start if you have it installed before, so you have to correct this by issuing these commands:

You should chown any other amavis-owned stuff you may have lying around, these are only the default ones.

You have finished if you don't need SSL support.

This must be done as root.

Enter "foobar" twice as passphrase.

Enter "foobar" when asked for passphrase, answer the questions. Leave "challenge password" "and optional company name" empty.

Enter "foobar" when asked for passphrase.

Uncomment the marked three lines around line 1044 (look for "SSL support").

Don't forget to open port 443 on your firewall, if any. (Based on How to create a self-signed SSL Certificate…, tested on frugalware-current 2007-02-14.)

Also, If you are using iptables, please uncomment this line in /etc/sysconfig/firewall:

After that do not forget to restart iptables with:

After installing this package, please run

to setup B2evolution.

Since version 2.6.24, the bcm43xx driver is deprecated, replaced by the b43 and b43legacy modules.

The module should be loaded automatically, in case it isn't, you can load it manually:

or:

You must bring the device up with ifconfig before doing any other configuration steps.

Since the channel must be set manually, first do a scan:

Then you can set it:

Finally set your essid:

Ready!

Please read the README file in the documentation directory of the package on how to fine-tune the configuration file of skyped and on how to generate the SSL certificates for it.

Cairo-Clock requires the Composite option to be enabled in your Xorg configuration. To enable it, add the following lines to /etc/X11/xorg.conf:

After you installed ccache, it won't be enabled by default.

First, you need to determine who is allowed to use ccache. You have to add each user to the ccache group. If you want to allow using ccache from chrooted builds, then you need to add the fst user:

Second, you need to somehow let the build system to use ccache, and not the compiler directly. If you use makepkg, this is enabled by default (you can disable it with the -B option). If you build manually, then you are on your own, though usually there are two ways to do so:

After installing cpuspeed, make sure you edit the configuration file before starting it. The configuration file is located in /etc/cpuspeed.conf.

Set the correct CPUFreq driver name in the confiuration file by setting the DRIVER value. for eg: if you want to use the p4-clockmod driver, your cpuspeed configuration file should contain:

For a list of drivers, check this directory /lib/modules/your_kernel_version/kernel/arch/i386/kernel/cpu/cpufreq

Follow these steps to when using cryptsetup-luks:

Of course later you don't have to use luksFormat and mke2fs:

Here we will be asked for a password which will be necessary to access /home at boot time.

You have to delay the splash screen, so that you can type your password before the splash appears:

(It will ask the password between the lvm and the splash service.)

Now the system can be restarted and the password will be asked to access home partition boot-time.

This mini-howto helps you to install the saslauthd server using postfix which will authenticate using users and passwords from /etc/{passwd,shadow}.

First install the necessary packages:

Enable sasl in postfix's config by appending the following lines to /etc/postfix/main.cf:

You may want to append

as well.

Put the following lines to /usr/lib/sasl2/smtpd.conf:

Edit /etc/sysconfig/saslauthd by changing the following lines:

to

and

to

Now you can start saslauthd by

as well as enabled in by default on startup:

Issue id postfix and see if the daemon group is listed. If not, then add postfix to the daemon group:

Finally restart postfix:

Compeleted!

We test it using telnet. We need perl to generate the string for the SASL authentication:

Then use telnet:

In most cases you have a socks server (you can create one easily using ssh, see the documentation of the openssh package), and you want to route all traffic through it. Here is the config you need:

Try for example:

When you connect to a server, others will see that you're connecting from the server, not from your own host.

First, please note that darcs comes with a very good HTML documentation, which is available under the /usr/share/doc/darcs-*/manual dir. That's the place where everything is properly documented, not the manpage. Using darcs [subcommand] -h is usable only as a reference, too.

If you're completely new to darcs, then start at /usr/share/doc/darcs-*/manual/node4.html.

Please also note that in order for the darcs send command to work properly, you must properly configure your mail transport agent to relay outgoing mail. For example, if you are using postfix, you need to edit /etc/postfix/main.cf, see the Using a relay host part of the postfix package documentation for more info.

If you got errors saying:

dazuko: failed to register

then you need to do:

It will work.

Please configure /etc/ddclient/ddclient.conf before running ddclient!

Samples for common configurations can be found in: /usr/share/doc/ddclient-$package_version/sample*

Additional details and instructions can be found in: /usr/share/doc/ddclient-$package_version/README

Once you have finished configuring the ddclient.conf file, you can start ddclient as a daemon by running as root, the following command:

If you are in trouble setting up your dhclient, use the following options. These are quite good defaults:

Dillo is moving to FLTK2. As of 2006-04-29 it is unstable (both unreleased and has some random erratic bugs, but upstream is working on it), and some KDE stuff has fltk dep, so not a good idea to mess with.

Dillo is now "crippled" by removing the new FLTK based download GUI, as it is only this needs FLTK2, but for the next release more FLTK2 expected.

After installing this package, please run /usr/bin/drupalsetup as root to setup Drupal

To be able to use this package as intended, you will have to:

To populate the DSPAM database, you need to follow several steps.

If you want to use the postgresql, sqlite3 or Berekely DB4 backends you can find instructions in the dspam documentation.

In order to use eAccelerator, you must add the following lines to your /etc/php.ini file:

Do not forget to create the cache directory as well:

Generate Key Pair:

Remove pass parse:

Combine the Private and Public Key:

Delete Private Key:

Set permissions:

Finally update the config file:

Register an account on your ejabberd deployment. An account can be created using a jabber client like pidgin.

Add the following lines to you config:

This will promote the account created in the previous step to an account with administrator rights.

Add the following line to your /etc/sysconfig/firewall, for example after mysql:

Now you should be able to connect to ejabberd remotely. Start your favourite jabber client on a remote machine (ie. pidgin) and register another account. You should be able to talk to the admin now and vica versa.

For more info, please read the Installation and Operation Guide, which can be found at /usr/share/doc/ejabberd-*/guide.html.

If you got disconnected from servers and getting some #20004 errors, then run as pbweb AS ROOT!!!

Then try again :)

If your keyboard doesn't work that can be because wrong virtual terminal number set in entrance config. Use the following command to set the proper value:

In this example you want to run entrance on vt7.

To test festival, try:

If hardware acceleration does not work make sure you have something similar in /etc/fstab:

If xv output doesn't work in mplayer add the following line to /etx/X11/xorg.conf's Device section:

On the following page you can find some useful solutions for different fglrx problems: Thinkwiki fglrx.

This version comes with a system init script now. You have to run the firestarter executable from the command line (in an X driven console) first to generate the initial start-up scripts.

To add it to startup, run this:

To remove it from startup:

Once you have the .flv file you want to share, you need FlowPlayer.swf from /usr/share/flowplayer and the following code sniplet:

This driver is under constant change, therefore no "stable" branch exists. Also, communications with the author led nowhere, that might explain some weirdness of building it, getting the latest stable version number etc. Mail

After installing this package, please run /usr/bin/fudforumsetup as root to setup FUDforum

Fuse is a virtual filesystem "helper" which makes possible to mount unusual things as a filesystem. It is achieved by using a simple program, which runs in user space, to provide data that can be represented by the fuse kernel module as a filesystem. The interpreter program is a less complex one than a kernel-space module, which is much harder to write. In Frugalware, regular users of a given box can mount filesystems by fuse. First as root, let's install the tools needed:

Then you have to add the fuse service to the startup list and start it manually for now:

Now, having the base of fuse, we need to install the programs for each specific filesystem type. To get a hint on what is available, you can issue the following command:

The two most used (ftp, ssh) plugins can be installed by running the following command. Beware, the ftp fs is a perl module, and it seems a bit memory hungry / buggy / slow so therefore it might be replaced by CurlFtpFS in the future.

Then, you can mount a remote dir with sftp access as a regular user doing:

You can also unmount it as a regular user doing:

You need to create your ~/.gammurc:

Replace /dev/ttyUSB0 with your serial port device and fbus with the appropriate protocol name if you are not a Nokia user. Check if you have write access to the device, you need to be a member of the uucp group.

Once you think you're done, check your setup:

It should print your IMEI number so that you'll be able to check if gammu really found your phone or there is a problem.

You probably use gammu to make a backup of your phone.

This involves two steps:

You may find an alternative format more human-readable for SMSes:

I have heard I should never remove the gcc package. Is this still true?

“No, since we split the gcc package, the standard C++ library is a separate package, you have to install gcc only in case you really need a C compiler.”

gcjwebplugin is a Firefox plugin for running Java applets. It is now included in the libgcj sub-package, though it is not enabled by default.

GNU Classpath and libgcj's security implementation is under active development, but it is not ready to be declared secure. Specifically, it cannot run untrusted applets safely.

When gcjwebplugin is enabled, it prompts you with a dialog before loading an applet. The dialog tells you that a certain URL would like to load an applet, and asks if you trust the applet. Be aware though that this dialog is mostly informative and doesn't provide much protection:

CURRENTLY GCJWEBPLUGIN RUNS WITH NO SECURITY MANAGER. THIS MEANS THAT APPLETS CAN DO ANYTHING A JAVA APPLICATION THAT YOU DOWNLOAD AND RUN COULD DO. BE VERY CAREFUL WHICH APPLETS YOU RUN. DO NOT USE GCJWEBPLUGIN ON YOUR SYSTEM IF YOUR SYSTEM STORES IMPORTANT DATA. THIS DATA CAN BE DESTROYED OR STOLEN.

The same warning applies to gappletviewer, which also runs with no security manager (in fact, gcjwebplugin spawns gappletviewer to do the applet loading). When run on the command line, gappletviewer issues a warning on startup and asks you if you want to continue.

Even considering the risks involved, you may still want to try gcjwebplugin. GNU Classpath's AWT and Swing implementations are now sufficiently mature that they're able to run many applets deployed on the web. If you're interested in trying gcjwebplugin, you can do so by creating a symbolic link in ~/.mozilla/plugins like so:

Type about:plugins in Firefox's URL bar to confirm that the plugin has been loaded. To see gcjwebplugin debugging output, run:

then at the GDB prompt, type

If you want to set up a web interface for your git repositories, then:

The Mini Commander applet has been replaced by Deskbar. If you want the functionality provided by the Mini Commander applet, please install the deskbar-applet package with pacman

The most common usage of this applications is something like this:

This app does not have any webserver, SQL server nor IMAP server in its depends, which is intentional. Anyway, if you plan to use it, you should set up a webserver and an IMAP server. The SQL server is optional, but it's the most easiest-to-use preferences container.

Additionally this app is not configured in any way: there are far too many customizable settings, so the packager cannot know how to set them for your particular needs. Installation instructions can be found in the INSTALL file.

Don't forget to open port 8080 on your firewall!

To do this, add the following two lines to your /etc/sysconfig/firewall:

for example after MySQL's entry.

Welcome to the README! Thanks for taking the time to find it ;-)

For an introduction to the wonderful world of HylaFAX(tm), please see http://www.hylafax.org/. Beginners should head directly to the docs:

If you have a question which you think relates only to the FPM version of HylaFAX post a bug to the Frugalware BTS:

You should also be aware of the following system modification: FaxMaster is added to /etc/postfix/aliases after installation automatically.

The default configuration files can be found under /var/spool/hylafax/config/defaults/. You can copy these files to the /var/spool/hylafax/etc/ directory and modify them there.

Enjoy!

After installing this package, please run /usr/bin/joomlasetup as root to setup Joomla

If you want to rip a video DVD, install the transcode package as well.

Loading the new kernel:

Booting it:

If you want to test this package, you can use for example the server of VoipBuster.

First, you should register a user name and password with their native (Windows-only) client. After that give iax.voipbuster.com as the server and your just registered username and password.

Now you should able to dial (currently the first minute is for free).

To use knb, you need a config file like this:

where idlenick is used till keepnick is used by someone else. The bot will join to #channel on irc.server.com.

You need to register that you're the owner for the first time. To do this, join #channel and

to give access someone to the bot.

Once keepnick is no longer used and knb switched to that nick, you can use

to change knb's nick back to idlenick, so that you can change your nick back to keepnick.

See the scripts directory on how to re-start your knb from cron automatically.

If you want to use kqemu, you need to mount tmpfs on /dev/shm. This is not problematic, qemu prints a usable error message if you miss that. The problem is that you have to do this again and again after each reboot. If you hate this, then just add the following line to your /etc/fstab:

Howto setup KVpnc for use without root password - sudo

Change your LastFM username and password in /etc/lastfmsubmitd.conf and the MPD server settings in /etc/lastmp.conf before starting the LastFM submit daemon.

After configuring lastfmsubmitd, you should run the following commands to start the daemons:

After installing lineakd, make sure you create a configuration file before starting it. An example configuration file is located in /etc/lineak/lineakd.conf.example for the user's reference.

You can then start the lineak daemon by running the following command:

After installing lirc you need to take the following steps:

Lmsensors is a hardware monitoring tool which is able to read thermal and voltage values and fan speeds from the sensor chips of your motherboard. Before running sensors you have to run sensors-detect as root to initialize them. It will autodetect your hardware and define which kernel modules you need to get it working properly, and tell you how to autoload them during boot.

So if you want to use lmsensors try to run

and say YES at end of sensors-detect to write /etc/sysconfig/lm_sensors.

Then issue:

Here is a mini-HOWTO, a longer one is available here.

First if you are on a setup cd, you need to

and

The first loads the device-mapper support for the kernel, the later enables the existing volume groups. This is automatically done for you on an installed Frugalware system.

You need to decide what physical partitions to use for LVM. In this mini-HOWTO / is /dev/hda1 and we create a big /home partition using /dev/hda2 and /dev/hdc1.

Let's initialize them for use by LVM:

Create a volume group titled vg:

Extend it with /dev/hdb1:

Then we can create a logical volume with a size of 400G titled home:

Create a filesystem on it as usual, ie. for ext3:

And now the only task is to mount it as usual, ie:

You already saw how to extend a volume group. Extending a logical volume is a bit more complex, but still easy.

If you use ext3:

If you use reiserfs:

That's it.

There is no any kind of http server in mailman's depends. It's because they are not needed to get a working mailman. Of cource if you want to provide archives and so don't forget to install a http server.

If you like coloured man-pages then you can enable that feature by issuing

It is handled as a configuration file, so feel free to edit the colors in that file if you want.

You have to GRANT some privileges (at least for the operating user) to be able to use this package, as the installer does not GRANT them. The operating user requires ALTER, SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE and even DELETE privileges, regardless that the latter is not mentioned by upstream. For installation, INDEX, CREATE, DELETE, and DROP privileges are also required - this can be carried out if you provide the (MySQL) superuser's credentials to the installer.

Do not forget to rm -rf /var/www/mantis/admin after a successful install to prevent hijacking your bugtracker, and chage the default administrator's password.

Install the tk package if you intend to use the gui "xmaxima". Detailed documentation can be found using

Do not forget to open port 8080 on your firewall!

To do this, add the following two lines to your /etc/sysconfig/firewall:

for example after MySQL's entry.

You can set up Monit by adding these lines to /etc/inittab:

You should edit the settings: videodevice, input, norm, frequency, width, height and target_dir in /etc/motion.conf

If the file already exists, it wont be overwritten by the package while upgrading. You can refer /etc/motion-dist.conf for configuring motion.

From munin-1.2.5-2 we no longer use a random uid/gid, but dedicated ones. Because of this munin service will not start if you have it installed before, so you have to correct this by issuing these commands:

You should chown any other munin-owned stuff you may have lying around, these are only the default ones.

You can configure MythTV this way:

After this you can access server.com:80 at localhost:8000 even if server.com:80 is not accessible from your machine.

Many mobile users have the following problem: they have to use an unencrypted wireless lan and they want to access webservers which does not support https. There is an easy solution for this: you transfer data to a server in an ssh tunnel then the data can be transferred to the server unencrypted in a wired network. This is much more secure. Set up the socks proxy on localhost:8080:

Then configure your webbrowser to use the proxy, for example in firefox, select Manual proxy configuration and then set SOCKS Host to localhost, Port to 8080.

You require the data files of the original Transport Tycoon Deluxe for Windows to play the game. You have to manually copy the following files to /usr/share/openttd/data/

If you want to use the included scenarios, run openttd with the following command:

You should set

in /etc/php.ini in order to use php-cgi.

After installing this package, please run /usr/bin/phpbbsetup as root to setup phpBB

After upgrading, make sure to run the database update script

Pootle provides a separate webserver, after starting it, you should be able to reach it at http://127.0.0.1:8080/.

No-one can login to Pootle by default. You should edit /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/Pootle/users.prefs, and uncomment the startup user. Its password is startup, too. Then login via the web interface, create an account. Finally edit the configuration file again and comment the startup user.

These are the basic steps to set up Postfix to use SMTP Authentication to send mail through a relay host.

Set up a password maps file (/etc/postfix/sasl_passwd) as follows:

Append the following lines to /etc/postfix/main.cf:

Finally reload postfix:

That should do it!

This package relies on correct install of postfix's virtual tables and it needs to be configured by hand before usage. Copy /var/www/postfixadmin/config.inc.php.sample to /var/www/postfixadmin/config.inc.php and edit it to your taste. Below is an excerpt from upstream's INSTALL.TXT.

To use postgrey, put something along the lines of

in your /etc/postfix/main.cf (postfix 2.1 or newer is required.)

You'll find pyro's scripts in /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/Pyro/bin

If you are completely new to qemu, you may find the big list of switches a bit confusing. Most users want to install an operating system from a cdrom image to a virtual harddisk. Here is what you need:

It worth to read the full documentation at /usr/share/doc/qemu-*/qemu-doc.html, it really worth to do so.

To demonstrate how powerfull qemu is, here are a few cheap tricks:

If you want to be able to ssh to the machine, you can use port derirection. For example using the -redir tcp:1022::22 option, qemu:22 will be available at localhost:1022.

You can create a unix socket to control your virtual machine. For example if you are not able to ssh to the machine, you can still properly shut it down:

Use the -monitor unix:/tmp/qemu,server,nowait option, then send the sendkey ctrl-alt-delete string to the socket, for example using python:

Finally a trick about vnc: using for example the -vnc 0 option, it's possible to reach qemu's display via vnc. This is quite handy if you run qemu on a server (for example in screen), then you can freely attach to and detach from it whenever you want to do so.

Really, read the full documentation! :)

The config files have to be in the /etc/quagga dir and have to be writeable by the quagga user (to be able to save config from the daemon's shell).

Neither of the daemons will start till you edit the config files and rename/move them from .conf.sample to .conf (be careful to the uid/gid).

You have to enable explicitly the routing daemons to get started from the init script. The config file is /etc/sysconfig/quagga

If you have a working firewall, the OSPF daemon will not get working, you have to enable it in the firewall with this rule (maybe other routing daemons also have to be enabled, if you use it, but i could not find anything about that):

iptables -A INPUT -p 89 -m state —state NEW -j ACCEPT

To really activate quotas, you'll need to add usrquota to the appropriate partitions as listed in /etc/fstab. Here's an example:

When you want quota support for a given partition, some special files have to be created boot-time. This is not done by default. To do so, you need to

then, reboot to create those files.

To edit user quotas, use edquota. See man edquota.

This is the r8169 driver from Realtek. This in not the same r8169 presented in Linux kernel.

This driver supports: RTL8169S/8110S, RTL8169SB/8110SB, RTL8110SC

To use this driver you have to remove the official r8169 if loaded.

You can load this module with

It might be a good idea to blacklist r8169 and add realtek-r8169 to /etc/sysconfig/modules, so you do not have to play this game after every reboot.

Create a new feed database:

Subscribe to some feeds:

(That's the feed to be notified when there's a new version of rss2email.) Repeat this for each feed you want to subscribe to.

When you run rss2email, it emails you about every story it hasn't seen before. But the first time you run it, that will be every story. To avoid this, you can ask rss2email not to send you any stories the first time you run it:

Then later, you can ask it to email you new stories:

You probably want to set this up as a cron job or something.

There are a few options, described at the top of rss2email.py. If you want to change something, add it to config.py. For example, to be notified every time a post changes, instead of just once per post:

And you can ask rss2email to make the emails look as if they were sent when the item was actually posted:

You need to complete the install, running:

Do not forget to create a scratchbox user:

For further documentation about how to setup scratchbox for your development needs have a look at scratchbox documentation.

Also note that when you reboot and before trying to run scratchbox, you should run:

You can also add it to the default runlevel:

Then to start scratchbox, run:

You may want to restart your screen session automatically after a reboot. This is the case, for example, when we seed the Frugalware ISOs using a torrent client. Here is what you need:

You're ready!

Driver for the SpeedTouch USB and SpeedTouch 330

The binaries (modem_run and pppoax) have been installed in /usr/sbin.

You will find the documentation and example script files in: /usr/share/doc/speedtouch-pkgver

You can start configuring your modem by running

Please start the configure script in the /var/www/squirrelmail directory!

You have to install this plugin with squirrelmail's own ./configure tool.

In order to use the sugarcrm, you have to symlink it to somewhere. For example, if you want to use it under http://localhost/sugarcrm, then use:

After installing this package, please run in a browser http://localhost/sugarcrm/install.php to setup SugarSuite (sugarcrm).

First of all, read the INSTALL file for the instructions.

For lazy users, here's what i had to do to get the driver working:

After installing trac you need a few steps to set it up. First of all do not forget to install postgresql/mysql/sqlite according to which database backend you want to use.

To create a new trac project, just use the command:

You can check the result with:

Then, fire up a browser and visit http://localhost:8000

/lib/udev/devices is the directory where packages or you can place real device nodes, which get copied over to /dev at every boot. This replaces our previous /etc/sysconfig/udev solution. (The change was recommended by upstream.)

unp is a small perl script which makes extraction of any archive files easier. It support several compressors and archiver programs, chooses the right one(s) automatically and extracts one or more files in one go. It detects the right type from the file extensions or the "file" output.

unp was written by Andre Karwath (http://www.aka-online.de) in 1997, I (Eduard Bloch <blade@debian.org>) found it later and improved it to fill my needs. Have fun!

Create a big empty file:

Format it:

Mount it:

Install base and openssh:

Create etc/fstab with the following contents:

Create etc/sysconfig/keymap with the following contents:

Create etc/profile.d/lang.sh with the following contents:

We want networking, put the followings to etc/sysconfig/network/default:

If you want to use multiple virtual machines, use 192.168.0.2, 192.168.0.3 and so on instead.

Let's copy in the terminal device and change our root:

Create a regular user:

Remove unnecessary services and enable ssh:

Remove unnecessary packages:

Change /etc/inittab so that ctrl-alt-del will halt (and not reboot the system). Change the line

to

Exit from the chroot and umount:

You're ready, let's register it!

You should edit /etc/sysconfig/uml. Each item in the machines array defines a virtual machine. Here is an example:

This does the following:

First you need the tun kernel module:

Second, you need NAT. Let's assume you access the external network via the eth0 interface, then edit /etc/sysconfig/network/default and search the end of the [eth0] section. Just append

to the section. After a

NAT will be enabled.

Now you can easily start/stop your machines using the usual service uml start/stop command.

Frugalware does not use tmpfs for /tmp by default. However on servers this can cause problems: if you do not reboot for months, then cleaning /tmp can take some time. Using tmpfs can solve your problem: it's a ramdisk so its content not preserved during a reboot. All you need is to add the following line to your /etc/fstab:

If you want to enable spell check support, you need to:

where xx is code of the requested language.

Some languages need correctly set encoding. If you get a message like:

then you need to set your encoding as well:

The incorrect words are coloured red by default. You can reach a list of suggested words by pressing z= when the cursor is at the given word.

If you want to disable the spell check support, type:

It may be handy to have map function keys in ~/.vimrc to enable / disable the spell check support:

See the upstream documentation for more info about spell check support:

How should I remote control xmms from xchat?

First make sure you really need it - some people think it's a security hole.

You need XChat-XMMS plugin from XChat's Scripts + Plugins section, and some other packages (mostly Perl modules) which I'm too lazy to search for, but are available in fpm.
