Re: [gentoo-user] Is there a Gentoo Expert in NYC?

2012-07-05 Thread Dmitry Goncharov 
One way to fix that would be to boot a livecd, chroot, build and install
another kernel.
Why does not the old kernel boot?

 I need a Gentoo Expert to take a look at this.  Are there any in NYC
 around West 72nd?  I've got to get this laptop working.  After
 following the recomendations on building the latest kernel I don't
 have a system anymore.  Everything on my LVM2 partitions are gone or
 at least not working.  I added genkernel ~amd64 to the
 portage/package.keywords as suggested to get the latest genkernel to
 build . . . which it did.  Now the kernel (3.3.8) which was suppose to
 fix the xorg-server problem destroyed the system, I can't boot to the
 old kernel either it's the same thing.  This is getting worse.  How
 can I fix this?  Is there anyone near by?  Thanks.

Re: [gentoo-user] Just a heads-up, I think =sys-libs/glibc-2.14.1-r3 is a stinker.

Can you upgrage to glibc-2.15?
Can you tweak you gcc flags to something more conventional and see if the
problem persists?
If you are interested in submitting a patch to the upstream then you can build
the glibc test suite with your gcc flags and check if the tests pass.

 Sure. It's going to be another full reinstall.

 Those CFLAGS should be equivalent to:
 CFLAGS=-O2 -pipe -ggdb3 --march=native.
 
 But I'll try making it just -O2 -pipe --march=native.

 If it gets things fixed. I have two machines which have been offline
 for almost two months from this.

Also, which gcc are you using? Can you try a different version?

 No.  There's no upstream for it anymore.  Packagers maintain their own 
 versions and fixes are not contributed upstream since there's no upstream.
 
 

Yes, there is not upstream. I am looking for a gentoo maintainer who can accept
patches.
Alternatively, i can roll out a colorgcc tarball and start a new
upstream. I use the program with 4 of these compilers on a daily basis and 
maintain
anyway.

 Commendable effort, my friend. Have you tried asking in the gentoo-dev ML?
 
 Rgds,
 
No effort at all. The program helps and makes my life easier a lot.
Yes, i also asked the gentoo-dev.
