I am still looking for a pattern or an error-message somewhere ... This reminds me of a problem we had just recently. Have you got a multi-core CPU ? If yes, read on. We have 6 machines here running an identical Gentoo system (just different hostname and IP number) with a AMD Phenom II quad core CPU and identical mother boards. One of them had these random crashes you reported. I've totured memory by running up to 3 memtester-processes over night - no single fault. Our dealer has replaced the motherboard - again no change. Then I suspected the CPU itself although it has stood a burnK7 run for several hours. After the CPU has been replaced the spook has gone. I suspect a cache coherence problem. The normal memory tests assign a given window of the physical storage to a given core - even if run in parallel. But a typical usage under Linux switches the core which executes a given thread quite frequently. Now the Phenom II has 4 core each with a private 0.5 Mb primary cache but a 6 Mb second level cache common to all 4 cores. In the BIOS one can opt for all 4 cores using this secondary cache or for only a single core using it. When a core writes to this cache or to memory all other cores must be informed that their private cache is invalid. If this doesn't happen or happens a bit too late, a core will fetch invalid (old) memory contents which may result in a crash. So, if you can, set the BIOS switch that only a single core can use the secondary cache. If the problems disappears the CPU is broken. I hope you can solve your problem, Helmut. -- Helmut Jarausch Lehrstuhl fuer Numerische Mathematik RWTH - Aachen University D 52056 Aachen, Germany

Sometimes it crashes after clicking opera, sometimes after clicking thunderbird, so far never when clicking/starting a gnome-terminal. I am still looking for a pattern or an error-message somewhere ... This reminds me of a problem we had just recently. Have you got a multi-core CPU ? If yes, read on. We have 6 machines here running an identical Gentoo system (just different hostname and IP number) with a AMD Phenom II quad core CPU and identical mother boards. One of them had these random crashes you reported. I've totured memory by running up to 3 memtester-processes over night - no single fault. Our dealer has replaced the motherboard - again no change. Then I suspected the CPU itself although it has stood a burnK7 run for several hours. After the CPU has been replaced the spook has gone. I suspect a cache coherence problem. The normal memory tests assign a given window of the physical storage to a given core - even if run in parallel. But a typical usage under Linux switches the core which executes a given thread quite frequently. Now the Phenom II has 4 core each with a private 0.5 Mb primary cache but a 6 Mb second level cache common to all 4 cores. In the BIOS one can opt for all 4 cores using this secondary cache or for only a single core using it. When a core writes to this cache or to memory all other cores must be informed that their private cache is invalid. If this doesn't happen or happens a bit too late, a core will fetch invalid (old) memory contents which may result in a crash. So, if you can, set the BIOS switch that only a single core can use the secondary cache. If the problems disappears the CPU is broken. Phew, quite some theory ... do you positively know that this was the reason? I think I haven't seen such a setting in my BIOS. I use an Intel Core2Duo E6600 on a Intel DP965LT board here, 8 gigs of RAM lately ... BUT my issues really only started after completely going to ~amd64, I never saw such a crash before when I used a mixed setup (most pkgs stable, some unstable ...) I will have a look at my BIOS now.

[gentoo-user] mesa's libGL.so looking in wrong place for r300_dri.so

It obviously is installed: it works (mostly), all its files are there, and and eselect opengl still shows an ati option. How do you uninstall a package that emerge claims isn't installed? Anyway, I can't get DRI working with the open-source radeon driver. Mesa's libGL.so seems to be broken. I've re-emerged both mesa and mesa-progs, but libGL.so (part of mesa) can't find other .so files that are _also_ part of mesa.

[gentoo-user] eclipse portage package
I was checking to see what version of eclipse seems to have a portage package, and I was kinda shocked that the package seems a bit outdated. 3.4 is the current portage package, but eclipse has been at 3.5 for a good while now. Seeing as the eclipse website has a linux binary 3.5+ package, unless I've overlooked something available from gentoo (I would be overjoyed to have made that mistake) then I'm going to be forced to see how to coax portage to allow me to use that eclipse site binary package to sub for ALL eclipse packages. Anyone know how to get portage to make externally supplied binaries to supply portage eclipse dependencies? All of the huge number of eclipse plugins can be done without using portage just fine, but the eclipse itself, that I would really rather use a portage ebuild for installation.

I don't know about installing binary stuff - probably wouldn't work

seem to see a 3.5 version masked with ~ . Note that I would unmask it
