Network problem : No ipv6 routers

Problem :

I start my computer and i can't connect to internet.
However, if I did : /sbin/ifconfig, I had an ip correct.
I checked the /var/log/messages and I found that message :

kernel No ipv6 routers

Solution :

I desactivate ipv6 by adding the following line : alias net-pf-10 off
in the file /etc/modprobe.conf.

Boinc on Gentoo

I) Installation :


I installed Boinc 6.10.58-r1 :

emerge sci-misc/boinc

I hava no problem with installation but when I execute Boinc, I had some errors (Buffer OverFlow).I searched on the net but I found no answer at my problem.
So for running Boinc on my computer, I went on Bionc Web Site : (http://boinc.berkeley.edu/download_all.php)
I downloaded ./boinc_6.10.58_i686-pc-linux-gnu.sh.
Then I copied as root in /opt/

chmod +x ./boinc_6.10.58_i686-pc-linux-gnu.sh

./boinc_6.10.58_i686-pc-linux-gnu.sh

cd /opt/Boinc/

./run_manager




II) Boinc as a service

If you want install Boinc as a service, see this link : service

mount boot unknown filesystem type 'ext2'

Problem :

When I execute : mount /boot/, I have the following :
mount: unknown filesystem type 'ext2'

In my /etc/fstab, I have  :

 /dev/sda1               /boot           ext2            defaults        1 2

Solution :

Add a journal to /dev/sda1 :

tune2fs -O has_journal /dev/sda1

Then modify ext2 en ext3 in /etc/fstab.

 /dev/sda1               /boot           ext3            defaults        1 2

So, now you can make a mount : mount /boot

Install Google Chrome on Ubuntu 9.10

I've found a post about installing Chrome on Ubuntu.I test it and it works ! So I put it here :


November 2nd, 2009
This post was written when Chrome was still not available for Linux. Chromium was the only option then. Now that Google Chrome is available, just go to Google's website and download the browser directly.

Add to your sources list.
$ sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/chromium-daily/ppa/ubuntu karmic main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/chromium-daily/ppa/ubuntu karmic main
You may substitute jaunty, intrepid, hoary for other distributions.

Add the GPG keys.(all in one line)
sudo apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com 0xfbef0d696de1c72ba5a835fe5a9bf3bb4e5e17b5

Run an update.
sudo apt-get update

Finally, install Google Chrome.
sudo apt-get install chromium-browser
