Rafael Hi, That means that you have monolithic Xorg installed, which is now hard masked, and that the packages you want to install want to install components of modular Xorg (the two won't mix). Sometimes you can avoid the problem by removing one or more USE flags, but in the long run, the better solution would be to go to modular Xorg, since it is the only one supported now.

Sometimes, but not all the times, it gets into this phase where the wireless drops, comes back, drops, comes back (etc) and eventually I start seeing this in kernel logs: ipw2200: Firmware error detected. Restarting. Unloading and reloading the module does not stop the issue, when it has begun. I have done some searching, and the typical advice is to make sure hardware crypto is off, by loading it like so: modprobe -v ipw2200 hwcrypto=0 However this never stops it, or even causes it to calm down a bit. The most frustrating thing, is that this does not happen all the time. I use multiple wireless networks. All of them wide open, except for one, which was mine at home with WPA.

My machine has other two NICs, one onboard (via-rhine) and a old realtek

On my /etc/modules.d/aliases I have the 3 lines below:

and it works very well setting each device to the right eth interface until
I'd start to change the NICs, sometimes it does not work but shuting down
and powering up the machine again used to solve.
now, since I'd changed the NICs, every time I boot up my machine the third
device (3com) is associated with eth3 and eth2 does not have any device
associated.
my dmesg says that the interface eth2 was associated with the ne2k-pci but

Well, I do not have any idea about how to fix it or what may be wrong since
it is supposed to just setup /etc/modules.d/aliases and run modules-update

One extra information is that booting in single mode (init=/bin/bash) the
interface order is ok. Could it be a udev problem?
Thanks for the help,
I'm pretty sure you can use UDEV rules to set it, something like this:
# cat /etc/udev/rules.d/10-local.rules
BUS==pci, KERNEL==eth[0-9], SYSFS{address}==00:2a:9a:d4:65:32, \

BUS==pci, KERNEL==eth[0-9], SYSFS{address}==00:a0:5d:3e:ae:54, \

Where SYSFS{address} is the MAC address of the card.

[gentoo-user] I want to RTFM more about lib-compat etc
Hi, I thought I had a fairly good understanding of how shared libs and lib seelction works in Linux - good enough to know what compile options to use, etc. But it seems that was a wrong assumption. I'm trying to get a third party binary app (Sybase database ASE-15) to run on Gentoo and it's proving to be ... difficult. Previously, it would run if lib-compat was installed, but no more - I get mysterious seg fault errors. My system is currently ~x86 and up to date, especially glibc-2.5. Sybase expects 2.3.something and while I understand that it needs compatible libraries installed, I find I don't know enough to determine exactly which libs will be used on my system. So I need some docs. I badly want to RTFM, I'm just having some trouble finding the correct M to R. Google and gentoo.org lead me to either very basic stuff that I already know, or way too complex docs suitable for developers. I want something in between, on a level for an ebuild maintainer that tells me how ld, libtool and the tool chain works and how to determine the differences between glibc versions to I can get this critter to work, and know why it then works. Anyone got any good/suitable links to share? alan p.s. please please please no replies to tell me to tell the vendor to recompile the app or release the source. That ain't gonna happen anytime soon.

If you've got another Gentoo box still on 2.3 I'd use it or I think you can install glibc 2.3 in a limited way, but you're on your own for that one.

Re: [gentoo-user] modules.conf - alias for eth devices - can't set the correct interface number
Looking at /etc/udev/rules.d/ I'd found 70-persistent-net.rules with
the lines below:
# PCI Device: 0x10ec:0x8029 (ne2k-pci)
SUBSYSTEM==net, DRIVERS==?*, ATTRS{address}==00:c0:df:ea:d6:49,
NAME=eth1
# PCI Device: 0x10b7:0x9200 (3c59x)
SUBSYSTEM==net, DRIVERS==?*, ATTRS{address}==00:04:75:c5:5c:ce,
NAME=eth2
The interface with name eth1 match the mac address with the installed
one, but interface eth2 does not, probably 'cause it might be the old
card mac adress.
Well, now I know that in some way udev add these links automatically I
do thing that I can just change the mac address putting the right one,
letting the file appear like below:
# PCI Device: (via-rhine)
SUBSYSTEM==net, DRIVERS==?*, ATTRS{address}==00:50:8D:84:A8:4F,

SUBSYSTEM==net, DRIVERS==?*, ATTRS{address}==00:50:04:6E:9C:AB,

Well, that's OK, it do solve my problem but isn't it supposed to be an
automatically process? Isn't it an UDEV or Gentoo task to deal with?

I'm pretty sure you can use UDEV rules to set it, something like this:
# cat /etc/udev/rules.d/10-local.rules
BUS==pci, KERNEL==eth[0-9], SYSFS{address}==00:2a:9a:d4:65:32, \
NAME=lan0
BUS==pci, KERNEL==eth[0-9], SYSFS{address}==00:a0:5d:3e:ae:54, \
NAME=lan1
Where SYSFS{address} is the MAC address of the card.

Please do not top post.
Regarding your now solved problem, I don't have such file
(70-persistent-net.rules) in my rules.d directory, it seems that it
has something to do with automatic udev configuration. I don't have
any idea on WHY or WHEN this is run. It appears to be run by some rule
in UDEV configuration writting persistent net devices.
Maybe someone else will have a better idea... They'll probably need
your UDEV version...

If you absolutely want to know all the libraries that a program loads (including those that it dlopen's), use strace: strace -s 128 -f -e open program to trace program args... If that loads any libstdc++, I would guess you problem is conflicting C++ ABIs. My next best guess would be that sybase has some problem with nptl. -Richard -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
