Re: [gentoo-user] boot gentoo in 5 seconds?
depending on your platform. For asus eeepc has been developed a software named finit-mod which substitute init executable in the boot process. I am working on a finit-mod version for gentoo. Actually i use it on my eeepc with gentoo but there is a big problem...you have to avoid the use of init scripts.. regards Liviu Andronic ha scritto: Dear all, Today I stumbled on several posts [1] [2] concerning start-up speed of Linux. Compared with the 5-17 secs posted in the posts, my (slightly old) Gentoo needs around two minutes from power button to DE idle. Are there any developments in Gentoo concerning this?

[gentoo-user] Wine-1.1.16 and amd64
Hi all! I am trying to upgrade wine to version 1.1.16 on my Gentoo AMD64 but I got a problem because it can't compile (or maybe link) on my amd64 system. x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc -m32 -c -I. -I. -I../../include -I../../include -D__WINESRC__ -D_REENTRANT -fPIC -Wall -pipe -fno-strict-aliasing -Wdeclaration-after-statement -Wwrite-strings -Wtype-limits -Wpointer-arith -march=core2 -O3 -pipe -msse4.1 -fomit-frame-pointer -o activeds_main.o activeds_main.c /usr/bin/ld: Relocatable linking with relocations from format elf32-i386 (main.o) to format elf64-x86-64 (acledit.gf6Map.o) is not supported winebuild: /usr/bin/ld -r failed with status 256 winegcc: ../../tools/winebuild/winebuild failed make[2]: *** [acledit.dll.so] Error 2 this is one of the errors that I got. Is there a way to build wine on a 64bit system without using the win64 flag (i still want to run win32 binaries). Bye! -- Antonio Quartulli http://www.ritirata.org/ordex

Apparently if you remove the offending line recently added by vapier to the ebuild, it may build. However, variable results have been reported. Failing that, I suggest you do what I did - mask 1.1.6 and be content with 1.1.15 ok, thank you so much! I will mask version 1.1.16 too -- Antonio Quartulli http://www.ritirata.org/ordex
Re: [gentoo-user] Updating system problem
Túlio Henrique Alves dos Santos ha scritto: Hi folks, I trying to update one server, that in the past had apache2 installed. Today I removed the apache2, but when I run: *# emerge --update --ask world* the update of apache2 appears with the update of the others programs that is installed, but apache is no more. What I have to do to fix this, and take out this update? Thanks a lot for the attention. Tulio Henrique did you run # emerge --depclean ? To remove any deps that apache2 intalled in the past. Remember -p to have a look of the package that it wants to remove. -- Antonio Quartulli http://www.ritirata.org/ordex
Re: [gentoo-user] How to dim the display brightness
Damian ha scritto: Hi, I cannot find the way to dim the brightness of the display on my laptop. It doesn't seem to be nothing useful in /proc/acpi neither I can find anything in google. I would like the brightness of the screen to be dimmed when the computer is idle for a certain amount of time. Do you have any clues where I can start digging? Thanks in advance, Damian. It depends on your video driver. First of all, which video card have you got? -- Antonio Quartulli http://www.ritirata.org/ordex
Re: [gentoo-user] Python vs C++ [was: Gentoo Rules]

I suspect C++ runs somewhat faster, but that's not the issue here. As I understand, portage needs to deal with lots of special cases and exceptions to the general rules for updating package. Special cases and exceptions always lead to complications and messy code. Switching languages doesn't help a situation like this. C++ is most certainly going to yield faster programs since it is a machine compiled language and python is interpreted. But that's not the idea behind portage. It's all about using the right tools for the job. I do all my research code in C++ because I need good memory management and I need speed. But python is far easier to code in, doesn't need to be compiled, and is pretty dang elegant. It's also pretty platform independent, which is also nice. -- Randy Barlow http://electronsweatshop.com one reason pro phyton and contra c and c++ has always been: segfaults. And with c++ comes another one: abi changes. Just think about this horror: gcc/libstdc++ update and your package manager stops working Why don't a python upgrade break your package manager?? - -- Antonio Quartulli, @System President www.atsystem.org Student of Computer Science at University of Pisa Web: www.quartulli.org GPG Key: www.quartulli.org/aquartulli_0×41A1F50B.asc -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v2.0.7 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iQEVAwUBR2WN1JUBe9lBofULAQJOZwf/b42oKASq7T3LPChNub/L48Sdc4frpTuT zNov1laSH3Wswax1UtFg+2oGxwJga3tzd4SX6F0/E5LhQE9BBSX3YGwgKy2HANsB ban2rZssT/IADSK8PE6rGM2SmBm46iGOJNDcTfw/K014FC68ZoA+giK63KTpcQ70 j789xlfDQQKrTitR0uawwPiZAE7mQ2wqgTozInOecDxEiNXV6HOOdNeqOgofGLOM R9XfpURFsaj72cMpqlW/hnuQQAf5hHq1GDBoWDpiETC3IDZNLkXI2hgoy6oBxybB VqTCUdfInUsMTlXARJgebr96Yl6x4XXafZZTbvncN0MQTCZ1WCQaUQ== =sG2L -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
