This message was posted in the VL Packages forum. I also thought it appropriate to post to the VL Development list, since many of the packagers also get this e-mail. When replying with your ssh key as described below, be sure to reply to me only, not to the list. I already have ssh keys from Vector, Joe1962, Kocil, johnvan and Uelsk8s, so I won't need theirs again, lol. ;-) Best, John ============ Due to changes in ibiblio's storage policy on its server, we are going to be moving the main VL FTP repository from ibiblio to osuosl.org. The aim is to go live by 15 July 2006 at the latest. (We expect that ibiblio will continue to mirror the VL repository.) In preparation for this move, each regular packager will need to generate an ssh key as soon as possible using the following procedure: 1) Open a terminal. 2) Type *ssh-keygen -t rsa* at the command prompt. A public-private key pair will be generated. 3) You will be prompted for a passphrase. While not absolutely necessary, it's a good idea to have one. 4) The public key file will be saved in a text file located at ~/.ssh/rsa_id.pub. Once you have generated the key, e-mail it to me at joh...@gm... as a file attachment. Do NOT put it into the body of your e-mail. Since I get a fair amount of e-mail daily, format your subject line like this: JohnB316 - SSH key Be sure to use your VL forum name where mine is. [image: wink] That way, your e-mail won't be treated as spam. Once I have received your SSH key and have added it to the authorized keys for the new upload repository, you'll receive further instructions via reply e-mail on how to access the new FTP upload repository. Best, John |

Some of you may know I've been asking to include SMP enabled kernels in VL for some time now. It's been quite a while since hyperthreading came out, not to mention the current craze with dual-core architectures, that I figured it was an important step to take. Now it seems it will become very easy to support this with a new feature of the 2.6.17 kernel: "X86 "SMP alternatives" (optimizes a single kernel image at runtime according with the available platform)" Check out this article: http://lwn.net/Articles/164121/ Regards, Joe1962 |

Just released vl-hot 0.3.2 and uploaded a package to the ftp in upload/joe1962/dev/vl-hot/. This is for vec's kernel 2.6.16.11 + udev 090 (on the way to VL6). I am interested to know if it works in vanilla SOHO 5.1.1, but I cannot test this myself at the moment. This release is on the way to supporting the new XFCE native desktop icons, as well as KDE as usual. Here's the changelog for the 0.3.x devel branch, since I haven't been announcing the releases on this list before: 2006-06-14 <jo...@ve...> * Released 0.3.2 2006-06-13 <jo...@ve...> * Create desktop icon file for every user with a Desktop dir (including root). * Remove redundant code to determine KDE user. 2006-05-21 <jo...@ve...> * Released 0.3.1 2006-05-21 <jo...@ve...> * Using SUBSYSTEM=="block" again, udev.rules mounting rule sucks. * Removed volnum parameter handling (%n). * Extracting volnum from devname (%k). * Fixed mountbase extraction for double digit devices. * Now mounts non-MBR devices again. * Now mounts kernel unknown partitions again. * Should not mount scsi nor sata hdd now. * Established $DIAG to limit feedback (0 = min, 1 = verbose). 2006-05-19 <jo...@ve...> * Using separate BUS== rules (usb, pcmcia, ieee1394) instead of scsi. 2006-04-11 <jo...@ve...> * Released 0.3.0 2006-04-05 <jo...@ve...> * Fixed vol number. * Fixed a [] typo. * Changed scripts from /etc/udev/scripts to /lib/udev. * Fixed all paths inside rules and scripts to /lib/udev. 2006-03-16 <jo...@ve...> * Added iocharset=iso8859-15 to FAT mount options. * Added noatime option to $MOUNTSYNC. 2006-03-10 <jo...@ve...> * TODO added for fixing FS mount options and unmount drive action.

I let Robert know about things a little while ago. The end of April and all of May was a write-off for me due to work committments. I was busy setting up a new head office for one of our divisions of the company. Lots of long hours and weekends but it is finally over!!!!! I will try to have the build system finished within the next 2 weeks and have it tested a week after that. I want to make sure everything works smoothly so it can be used by anyone and everyone to build the vl base.

Me too, though I'm not against /media per se, just not sure if it's really going to become the standard for this or not. Also, although vl-hot mounts cameras, flash cards and such "media", it also mounts pendrives and hdds, which might not really fit that category. Regards, Joe1962 |

joe, My only opinion is that I lik eto have all my mount points in /mnt so i don= t have to go looking all over for them, but this is just what I am used to. I have googled around kde and the rest of the net and cant find anything that would conflict with vl-hot being put into /media . thanks, Uel On 5/25/06, Jose J.

Sorry for too much letters from me today.
I've just understood how to simplify the script: the FAT codepage can
be determined by $LANG in all cases.
Beta3:
--------------------------- BEGIN -----------------------------
#!/bin/sh
FSTAB_IOCHARSET=3D`locale charmap | tr A-Z a-z`
case "${LANG:0:2}" in
"bs" | "cs" | "hr" | "hu" | "pl" | "ro" | "sk" | "sl" )
FSTAB_CODEPAGE=3D"852";; # Latin-2
"be" | "bg" | "mk" | "ru" | "tg" | "uk" )
FSTAB_CODEPAGE=3D"866";; # Cyrillic
"ar" )
FSTAB_CODEPAGE=3D"864";; # Arabic
"el" )
FSTAB_CODEPAGE=3D"737";; # Greek
"iw" | "he" )
FSTAB_CODEPAGE=3D"862";; # Hebrew

FSTAB_CODEPAGE=3D"775";; # Baltic
*)
FSTAB_CODEPAGE=3D"850";; # Latin-1 & Latin-9
esac
export FSTAB_IOCHARSET FSTAB_CODEPAGE
echo "iocharset=3D$FSTAB_IOCHARSET,codepage=3D$FSTAB_CODEPAGE"

Solution exists! We can check $LANG in this case!
Here is Beta2:
--------------------------- BEGIN -----------------------------
#!/bin/sh
export FSTAB_IOCHARSET=3D`locale charmap | tr A-Z a-z`
case "$FSTAB_IOCHARSET" in
"iso-8859-2" | "cp1250" )
FSTAB_CODEPAGE=3D"852";; # Latin-2

esac
export FSTAB_IOCHARSET FSTAB_CODEPAGE
echo "iocharset=3D$FSTAB_IOCHARSET,codepage=3D$FSTAB_CODEPAGE"

I decided to use codepade 850 by default, because I don't see any
drawbacks of this decision. Does anybody see them?

this is a beta version:

Here is a first draft of my script, which needs additional charset
mapping entries. At home I have some additional info about AnsiToOem
mapping.

For me too ;) Yes, you are right, "umask=3D0111,dmask=3D0000" yields the same result. > Very good point. I'd need some help with this though. I am ready to help. Also I would like VL-Live to generate fstab with encoding options, depending of the chosen locale - that could be a simple dialog/Xdialog dialog during startup, I saw such dialogs in some live distros. So, I'll try to write a script and maybe also a small C program, which will define two env. variables for use in fstab, say FSTAB_IOCHARSET and FSTAB_CODEPAGE. BTW the codepage can also be used for automatic setup of ncpfs (Novell Netware) and smbfs (Window Network). |

Very good point. I'd need some help with this though. Another way could be the through configuration interface I always intended to make for vl-hot, but time is so short.... Regards, Joe1962 |

No new FS types, just some notes... for vfat file systems: 1) I use options fmask=3D111,dmask=3D000 - otherwise all files look as exec= utable. 2) I think charsets should be configurable: you use iocharset=3Diso8859-15,utf8, I use iocharset=3Dcp1251,codepage=3D866. Or these options could be obtained authomatically: "iocharset" could be obtained from the system locale settings, and "codepage" could be defined by "iocharset" via some mapping of encodings (a subset of it would be Windows "ANSI to OEM" mapping). |

It was recently suggested to change the vl-hot mount base from /mnt/vl-hot/ to /media/. I'm not completely for nor against this change, as /media/ IMO is intended for drives where the mechanics is separate from the media an the media can be extracted and changed. Read floppy, zip, jazz drives, etc. Also, the traditional mount base, /mnt/ could be regarded as for use from fstab. Anyway, since I'm of 2 minds on this, I'd like your feedback on this point, or suggestions as to any other suitable mount base, if any. For your info, vl-hot creates within the mount base a directory for the drive (sda/, sdb/, etc), inside which, it creates the mount points for the partitions (vol1/, vol2/, etc). Regards, Joe1962 |

I need feedback on the correct mount arguments for the different FS
types. So far I've discussed, tested and tweaked the following:
ReiseFS, NTFS, FAT12, FAT16 and FAT32. I don't have other FS type
partitions to test with, nor available hardware to repartition for
testing (I've used my working pendrive and USB hdd, or feedback in the
Forum). Here are the current mount arguments used by vl-hot. I already
know ext2 and ext3 are wrong, as feedback from Kocil tonight suggests.
Also, what other FS types do you think should be implemented?:
# Mount options:
USB_USER=3Droot
USB_GROUP=3Dusers
USB_UMASK=3D0111
USB_DMASK=3D0000
# consider adding the noatime option to save writes to flash mem:

Bill, I offer my sentiments I know this is tough for you as you really love VL and it shows in your work and dedication to the project. So what ever lies in the road ahead move it out of the way and come back home pronto. I will miss you but I'll keep the home fires burning.

Thanks for all your committment and efforts. It is because of folks like you that VL is what it is today. You are always welcome - I know that better than anyone since I've had to drop off and come back a few times. Hope to see you around again.
