Hi,
you can try something like this :
in your .bashrc, add :
skipmerge(){
emerge --resume --skipfirst || skipmerge
}
then source your bashrc and try : emerge -auvDN world || skipmerge
that should work.

[gentoo-user] nautilus 2.16.3 never/always shows backup files
Hi there! In nautilus 2.16.3, backup files (files with names that end with a '~' character) are never shown in file browser mode if File management preferences / Views / Show hidden and backup files is unchecked, i. e. toggling View / Show Hidden Files toggles the display of dotfiles but backup files are always hidden. With File management preferences / Views / Show hidden and backup files checked, this is reversed, i. e. backup files are always shown - idependent of the setting of View / Show Hidden Files. I found those in Gnome's bugzilla: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=327361 http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=335315 and this in Ubuntu's launchpad: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/5326 but I didn't find a report in Gentoo's bugzilla.

Feel free to comment on it or contact me directly or any of my team members if you have any questions about this. We are hanging around in #Gentoo-Bugs on Freenode. There has happened some minor chances in the bugday team. Kloeri announced that I had taken over control and after that I added two new members to my little team. We have got Stephen Bennet (spb) and Peter Weller (welp) as our new team members. Welcome to both of you ;) Stephen is going to help our users with ideas about how to fix different kind of bugs and Peter is going to take care of arranging the events together with me. Which means he will have to contact our userreps and our upcoming bugday helpers from time to time. I have also created a bug[2] on bugzilla, which is going to be used by YOU people. I would be really happy if when you had something you would think our users would be able to help fixing, then post the bugid to that bug and I will update our website[3] so the users will be able to see it at our next bugdays.

Re: [gentoo-user] OT: wlan0 is sssloooow [100% SOLVED]
Yes, it was OT and very few of you are interested ;-) However, somebody would like to know who the killer was. The original subject was wlan0 is ssslw [99% SOLVED] because pinging the Belkin F5D7230-4 wireless router worked from Windows but not from Linux. The answer is: because Windows sends ICMP messages with 32 bytes of data, Linux sends them with 56 bytes of data. Moreover, Linux IP datagrams have the DF (don't fragment) bit set, Windows ones have not. On Linux, ping -s 15 192.168.2.2 works. Cheers Sergio -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

[gentoo-user] problem of installing reiser4
Hi,guys! I tried to install reiser4,but it seems failed. My kernel is 2.6.19-gentoo-r1.I download 2.6.19-rc1-mm1.bz2,and then tar jxvf ,and a file called 2.6.19-rc1-mm1 came out. Then i enter the kernel source tree,and : linux# patch -p1 /tmp/2.6.19-rc1-mm1 The next patch would create the file .mm, which already exists! Assume -R? [n] y patching file .mm patching file CREDITS patching file Documentation/00-INDEX The next patch would create the file Documentation/ABI/testing/cfag12864b, which already exists! Assume -R? [n] …… …… There were so many warnings. I think it's not right as I know there should not be any warning if it succeed. But which step I did above is wrong?Is it because the patch2.6.19-rc1-mm1.bz2 doesn't match my kernel ? -- wcw -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Re: [gentoo-user] EVMS root partition and udev, anyone?
Am Montag, 11. Dezember 2006 17:00 schrieb ext Kevin Hanson: Has anyone gotten their system to boot with an evms root volume on a purely udev system? If so, can you tell me how you did it. Yes. The problem I am having is the initrd from the evms site expects a kernel that understands devfs. The problem I'm having with genkernel --evms2 is that it complains that it cannot find /dev/evms/root. When I drop into the shell from this point, there is nothing except /dev/evms/dm. Don't use genkernel. I use a self-made initramfs, compiled into the kernel directly. I have scoured the web and I am at a loss. I really want to use evms, but it looks like I'm going to have to punt on this. I can sent you my scripts for creating the initramfs. Bye...
