[gentoo-user] environmental variables ?
I throw myself on your mercy, this is for a kubuntu install not a gentoo install - but you guys are the most technical bunch I know :) I start an app with 'gksudo simple-backup-config', (a gtk backup utility 'sbackup') and all is well, the GUI it is rendered perfectly. I upgrade my system. I start the app with 'gksudo simple-backup-config', YUK it looks like someone chewed it, the graphics are so primitive, white blocks around the GUI radio buttons, the tabs are separated and look like loose teeth, the buttons have lost their border and are just icons. Experimenting I found that 'gksudo -k simple-backup-config' restored it to its former beauty, as did straight 'sudo simple-backup-config'. Ahh I thought - environmental variables so I dug out a script to dump all environmental variables, did a diff between gksudo and gksudo -k and got ... DESKTOP_STARTUP_ID = gksudo/|home|vanda| test/27282-0-vanda-comp_TIME771509819 --- DESKTOP_STARTUP_ID = gksudo/|home|vanda| test/27292-0-vanda-comp_TIME771642528 13c13 HOME = /root --- HOME = /home/vanda 38c38 XAUTHORITY = /tmp/libgksu1.2-AbpNh8/.Xauthority --- XAUTHORITY = /tmp/libgksu1.2-wNoSTR/.Xauthority Not much change there. OK I am stumped. what else changes between gksudo and gksudo -k to affect GUI rendering ? I know its no big deal but I would like to know. :) Thanks in advance Dave -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

A bit more poking around I decided the best course was to return to the original state of affairs restore GCC 3.4.5, Glibc 2.3 KDE 3.5.2 . However when I did, Kdelibs 3.5.2-r6 failed with the same error ! So recompile everything again to try to make sure they were all in sync: same bad result ! Being experienced, I had made a quick-package of Kdelibs 3.5.2 , which I now tried to re-install via 'emerge -K': it refused, demanding Qt 3.3.6 -- no longer in Portage -- , where I had 3.3.6-r1 . Finally, I tried 'emerge -K --nodeps =kdelibs-3.5.2-r6', which worked ! I've rebooted restarted KDE all seems to be back to normal. However, something is still not right with GCC 4.1.1, Glibc 4.2 KDE 3.5.3 . There was a recent request on Gentoo Dev for people to test things prior to stabilising these items for the next profile, so I HTH (smile). Anyone else have experiences to share ?

With the split KDE packages, the system needs to md5 unpack those rather biggish .tar.bz2 files, like kdebase with ~23MB.

So, overall, I'd guess it would be like 36 hours for the big kde packages vs. maybe something like 37 hours for split ebuilds. Alexander Skwar -- 1. is qmail as secure as they say?

[gentoo-user] xorg-x11 screwup
I upgraded my xorg-x11 the other day. I followed the upgrade how-to, and everything seemed to go fine. However when I rebooted it was screwed up. The xorg.conf was a mess. I tried fixing it from memory but I couldn't sort it, and I'd forgoten to make a back up MY FAULT. Anyway I downgraded to xorg-x11-6.8.2-r8 and got x back and sorted out the problem with the xorg.conf and made a backup. I then attempted another go at upgrading and here's the problem. I follow the guide again and after 'emerge xorg-x11' it says there is nothing to download, compiles nothing, cleans up and claims it is done. I wasn't convinced, however I tried rebooting. No X, so I logged in and issued 'startx', nothing so I checked '/usr/bin/startx', it's not there, clearly it hadn't installed x So back to xorg-x11-6.8.2.-r8. I've tried another emerge --sync to see if that would fix the problem but no joy. So the question is, how do I force portage to down load and recompile the packages from scratch?

[gentoo-user] xorg worked! Minor issues....Thanks, Gentoo
It just plain worked! Emerge even identified -only- my drivers (mouse, keyboard, etc.) before I scanned xorg.conf. Minor problems: 1. The emerge stoped at one point because the uninstall failed to remove an obscure library (perhaps /var/lib/xkb ? sorry, I should have noted it). But emerge identified the directory and told me to delete it. A restart allowed successful completion. 2. Before starting, I renamed /etc/X11 to /etc/X11old so that any accumulated junk would be out of the picture, and so that the new xorg.conf.example file would be clean. Heh, it doesn't build a new xorg.conf.example file, so I copied over the old file and everything worked - except for the rgb file. 3. My first xmessage complained of not understanding black. So I emerged rgb, edited the xorg.conf file, and repointed it. RgbPath /usr/share/X11/rgb 4. I routinely use xterm, xmessage, and xkill - all needed to be emerged. Problem here was that eix and eix -S didn't find them, but emerge did. 5. revdep-rebuild found the missing libXaw.so.8, but crashed during re-emergence (bad order, and something else that I did not understand). So I emerged them one at a time in a different order, and everything worked except for the kde office applications. 6. kde office applications depend upon kde 3.4, which I no longer have - and revdep pointed this out :-) . This obviously is not an xorg issue, but rather an emerge issue; allowing me to unemerge 3.3 and 3.4 a month ago, while still having a need for their libraries if I need to recompile the office stuff. But I'm guessing that the office libraries, available in portage, will fix this. But I don't care right now, as the programs (e.g. word, spread) work fine without recompiling. :-) So thank you to Gentoo the Developers - another successful plan and instructions on your part, that worked just fine for newbies like me! .. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Before starting, I renamed /etc/X11 to /etc/X11old so that any accumulated junk would be out of the picture, and so that the new xorg.conf.example file would be clean. Heh, it doesn't build a new xorg.conf.example file, so I copied over the old file and everything worked - except for the rgb file. Yeah, there's a bug for this -- modular X currently lacks a rule to create it. 3. My first xmessage complained of not understanding black. So I emerged rgb, edited the xorg.conf file, and repointed it. RgbPath/usr/share/X11/rgb You should be able to comment out RgbPath 4. I routinely use xterm, xmessage, and xkill - all needed to be emerged. Problem here was that eix and eix -S didn't find them, but emerge did. Perhaps you haven't regenerated eix's cache lately? 5. revdep-rebuild found the missing libXaw.so.8, but crashed during re-emergence (bad order, and something else that I did not understand). So I emerged them one at a time in a different order, and everything worked except for the kde office applications. If you just want the libXaw.so.8 back, emerge libXaw with USE=xprint.

Who ever is maintaining this has taken choice away from me and replaced it with more work. Bummer. Cheers, Mark It is disappointing to find out that MYthTV-0.18-x was removed for reasons that some folks feel were possibly invalid. Apparently (IF I UNDERSTAND THIS - I probably don't...) there was a security bug found in ffmpeg and (I don't know why) a decision was taken to remove revisions of applications that used ffmpeg. However on my machine attempting emerge -pve mythtv-0.18-X doesn't indicate that it would have emerged ffmpeg, so what is the problem? Why remove this version? Maybe someone here knows the history? I couldn't get it from the bugs I looked at. If MythTV doesn't use ffmpeg then is the issue that they copied some bad code instead of linking in the bad library?

I was pissed because modular didnt work and I couldnt uninstall it! Eventually updates caught up with and fixed the problem, but in the meantime I had an unusable system. I realised the problem when I coulnt even downgrade from 7.1 to 7.0 - this loss of control is a major pita with modular X.

Make a copy of your .config file if don't use /proc/config.gz.
Then do:
1) cd /usr/src/linux
2) make mrproper
3) zcat /proc/config.gz .config
( or copy back .config in /usr/src/linux )
4) make oldconfig
5) make menuconfig
6) make
7) Do your kernel installation procedure
The most important part is make mrproper. If compilation fails after this you
better rm -rf /usr/src/your-version and emerge a fresh copy of the sources you
use. For example
emerge gentoo-sources

Yes, you guessed right again: it is a Dell latitude x1, and I followed the
howto of the gentoo-wiki, which says:
.
If you use GCC 3.4.3, there is no pentium-m arch, you need to use
pentium3. Using GCC 3.4.3 or later, you might want to try
-march=pentium-m. Those CFLAGS are known to be safe:
CFLAGS=-O2 -march=pentium3 -pipe -mfpmath=sse
CXXFLAGS=${CFLAGS}
.
But I had forgotten to make the change when switching to gcc-3.4. Now I
did it...

[gentoo-user] OpenGL problem after xorg upgrade
Hi, I upgraded to the modular xorg last night. I thought all was well till I noticed something today. First I noticed that when the screen saver comes on that it takes up 100% of my CPU. Thing is, the screen saver doesn't work anymore. I remerged all the nvidia stuff, kernel, glx, and settings, then logged out of KDE and stopped xdm. Then I unloaded the nvidia module and ran modules-update and reloaded nvidia. After that I restarted xdm. I get the nvidia white screen when it starts X so nvidia is working but all the screen savers that use OpenGL do not work. I check this by right clicking the desktop and then selecting configure desktop and clicking screensaver. The others work though. It don't even work in the preview.

IIRC genkernel uses a 'default' config (equal to the one in LiveCD, if not wrong). The whole idea is to loadmount initramfs in memory so to have the required modules/lvm/raid things to start the real root-fs. i'm using genkernel but just for the 'auto' initrd/initramfs thing, otherwise using my custom kernel config with some 12-16 modules.
