The VMware virtual video card doesn't support 3D AFAIR.

Eh? Your grub root should be where grub is installed, shouldn't it? That's
/dev/sda1 on my system, which grub sees as hd (0,0). When the file system is
mounted, that partition mounted under /boot but grub still needs to know where
to find the menu.lst and various stage files on initial boot, and that's hd
(0,0).

Found the issue. For some reason, the default menu.lst created with the stage

the file, I copied and pasted, then edited the kernel line. My guess is that
grub uses the title line as the flag to break between options. With both title
lines commented out, it saw a single option block with multiple kernel
statements. Uncommenting the title lines corrected the issue.

That means the bug wasn't properly assigned... I've set up some rules
[1] that might help there. It comes down to this:

1) If one or more <maintainer> tags are listed, assign to the first one
mentioned.
2) If no <maintainer> tag is listed, assign to the first <herd>
mentioned.
3) CC everyone else listed (<maintainer>s and <herd>s).

The rationale is that if one or more <maintainer>s are listed as well as
one or more <herd>s, a bug wrangler shouldn't need to go find out if
that maintainer happens to be on the <herd>'s alias as well (otherwise,
why would it mention those maintainers separately?).

The order in which <maintainer> and <herd> tags are listed isn't
special, because <maintainer> goes before <herd> for the reason set out
above. The order of multiple <maintainer> tags (or multiple <herd> tags)
does matter: the first one you find is the Assignee, the others are
CC'd.

Re: Install Gentoo 64bit from 32bit running enviroment

Hello.
If you want to test for 64bit extensions processor support, why won't you try it in VirtualBox or VMware? I think it's better for tests than install a second system on your second partition. Much faster and easier to use virtualization, no?

Your next paragraph indicates that (hd0,0) is not in fact root, but (what will

Your root is likely to be (hd0,2)

xconsole characters

2009-12-24T07:00:37Z

Hi,

Does anyone know if there's a way to configure xconsole to not display
control characters (at least that's what I think it is)? Currently
xconsole displays this when XDM starts:

[32;01m*[0m Setting clock via the NTP client 'ntpdate' ...
[A[152C [34;01m[ [32;01mok[34;01m ][0m
[32;01m*[0m Starting postfix (/etc/postfix) ...
[A[152C [34;01m[ [32;01mok[34;01m ][0m

I've tried google but it seems my search skills are somewhat lacking...
or noone else has this problem.

The file where xconsole is started:
/usr/lib/X11/xdm/Xsetup_0

... which contains this:
xconsole -geometry 480x130-0-0 -daemon -notify -verbose -fn fixed \
-exitOnFail
#xterm -C -geometry 480x130-0-0 -fn fixed -title "Xconsole"

Which doesn't really make it any clearer... I've tried to switch between
xconsole and xterm but the xterm one will expand and cover the whole
screen so that I can't see the login prompt...

I'm running a stable system and the xdm version installed is 1.1.8,
xconsole is 1.0.3-r1.

Any help is very much appreciated!

Merry Christmas!

Grub boots to command prompt

2009-12-24T05:52:37Z

Just did a stage 3 install following a HD crash on a new HD. The initial
install went without issue and I booted from the HD normally. I then went
through and installed a bunch of packages - xorg, kde, etc. I installed
genkernel, compiled a custom kernel, and updated /boot/grub/menu.lst.

Upon rebooting, I ended up at a grub command line. I can setup the hard drive
without errors:

grub> root (hd0,0)
Filesystem type is ext2fs, partition type 0x83

grub> setup (hd0)
Checking if "/boot/grub/stage1" exists... yes
Checking if "/boot/grub/stage2" exists... yes
Checking if "/boot/grub/e2fs_stage1_5" exists... yes
Running "embed /boot/grub/e2fs_stage1_5 (hd0)"... 17 sectors are embedded.
succeeded
Running "install /boot/grub/stage1 (hd0) (hd0)1+17 p (hd0,0)/boot/grub/stage2
/boot/grub/menu.lst"... succeeded
Done.

No errors, says everything's good. Reboot and I'm right back at the command
line.

I can do

root (hd0,0)
kernel = /vmlinuz-blah
boot

and boot into the system, so I know the system and hd0,0 is bootable. (I'm
writing this message on it after doing the above.)

There are three hard drives in the system. I've verified that the BIOS is set
to boot from the first hard drive, which grub sees as hd0. I've also, just to
test it out, setup grub on hd1 and hd2, with hd0,0 set as root. I still get
the same thing.

Grub package version 0.97-r9 installed. /boot is mounted to sda1, an ext2
partition. / is mounted to sda3, an ext3 partition.

I'm not seeing any error messages on bootup or in grub. I have no idea where
to go with this and so far, web searches haven't been helpful. Anyone have a
clue?

I think we should definitely have some way of designating which should
be the contact for bugs. I've had some bugs sit around for a while
without being noticed because they were assigned to the herd the package
is in, and not to me personally, and I don't generally work with that
herd, and the project associated with the herd doesn't generally
maintain the package.

I'm sure there are many cases where a similar situation exists.

Another way to handle this is at least CC EVERYBODY in the metadata in
new bugs, and not assume that copying the project will get all the
maintainers.

Problems playing CDs

2009-12-24T03:53:39Z

Hi all,
I have made a lot of changes to my system recently (with the help of Duncan and
others) and have resolved many issues, however, I have one outstanding problem.
If I put a CD into either of my drives I get the following in dmesg:-

sr 6:0:0:0: [sr0] Sense Key : Illegal Request [current]

end_request: I/O error, dev sr0, sector 0

This sort of error is way beyond me, especially considering that k3b recognises
the CD and I can rip it and copy it.

Please can anyone point me in the right direction.

That //// is coming from misc-functions.sh though. Because I guess ${ED}
is "/" then there's an additional "/", then ${EPREFIX} os "/" and
another "/" on the find command before the QA notice is issued.

I studied this problem with Suominen help and I got these conclusions:

1) sqlite2 should stay bundled since it is used just to backport old digikam database (< 0.8.0) to new database based on sqlite3.

2) I can't unbundled lprof because all of the three available versions can't be installed on my system (AMD64).

3) I also can't unbundled clapack, because the portage package that I suppose to provide clapack, lapack-atlas, depends on blas-atlas that I can't install on my system due to compilations errors.

4) libjpeg doesn't seem to be bundled since the original configuration script checks for it. But, the source code on libs/jpegutils seems to use headers from libjpeg-6b. At portage, we have libjpeg-7, so Souminen alerted me that it could have some incompatibility. If it was confirmed, we shall write an e-mail to digikam devs asking them to update it.

5) The only library that I successfully unbundled was libpgf that was recently added to portage. Nevertheless, the current portage ebuild installs a wrong libpgf.pc, because it states that the include directory is /usr/include but it really is /usr/include/libpgf (can anyone fix it or should I open a bug?).

Original line: includedir=${prefix}/include
Modification that should be maid: includedir=${prefix}/include/libpgf

ONLY WITH THIS MODIFICATION, my patch and ebuild that I attached works. This patch unbundled libpgf.
Obs.: The patch can be easily modified to overcome this error on libpgf.pc, but I think it is more adequate correct it first.

I emerged digikam-1.0.0 with this ebuild and everything that I tested works perfectly. I also verify that PGF support is working and I checked that it is really dynamically linked to the library libpgf (when I remove it, digikam doesn't start saying that libpgf wasn't found).

Since it was the first time that I have done something like it, I'm asking for help to avoid any mistakes, that's why I won't send this patch to bug 295459 by now.

[gentoo-user] cannot compile kvm

2009-12-23T17:14:17Z

hi,

i cannot access my computer now, so i can only tell you what i remember.

i am using gentoo amd64, and the portage is updated. the kernel have
kvm modules compiled. when i was trying to emerge kvm-kmod, it is said
to have been masked, so i unmasked it. but while compiling, kvm-kmod
failed with an error message like:

cannot file arc/x86/trace.h file

I think that we are looking through the wrong lens. In this case version
numbers will be plainly irrelevant 99% of the times, after all, it's a 9999
ebuild which we are talking about. Most times, the only factor that
triggers the merge for a 9999 ebuild is *the user*. And nothing in the
ebuild will prevent that of course, at least until Gentoo can control our
minds, which will eventually happen :lol: What we should be looking at -in
my humble opinion- is towards interrupting the execution of the ebuild once
that we find that there's nothing new (like when you do 'emake || die').
That's certainly possible as long as the RCS tool used provides a
consistent way to check if there has been a commit that needs to be
downloaded.

Of course, we would need some kind of IGNORE_RCS_CHECKS boolean variable
to override this, for those cases where we truly need to force a
recompilation of the offending package, or a similar mechanism, which could
also be printed using ewarn, einfo or whatever applies for the situation
when the ebuild aborts.

As far as I can think, I see no fundamental showstopper, this could be
implemented at the corresponding eclass for the given RCS backend, I guess.
That would save the need to modify every single 9999 ebuild (not that there
are a lot anyway). The only problem is that the fact that there's nothing
to download doesn't necessarily mean that your binary files are in sync
with your sources. For example, the source tree could have been updated on
a previous run of the build, but something might have stopped it before the
final objects are dumped into your real SO from the sandbox (electrical
outages, control+c's, build failures).

Also, I am no specialist in RCS's, and I have no idea if there's a truly
reliable way to get the needed info from them.

The real question is if it's worth all the effort to implement the
feature, I guess. In my case, when I am using development code for any
reason I am also subscribed to the corresponding commits mailing list or
tracker, that means that I get notified by email the following minute if
there's anything new on that repository, and I can decide if the commit
will do me any good or if I can wait for the next important one. So, in my
case, the feature is not worth to invest a single minute. Of course,
everyone is free to disagree. :)

always done.

What happened ?
