[gentoo-user] custom boost in /usr/local = problem with libkolabxml, libixion
Hello list, I've installed newest boost into /usr/local - it's a custom installation and not via emerge/portage. Today, after upgrading system, I've found that I need to use emerge --update --newuse --deep --with-bdeps=y @world to rebuild some dependencies. In the process of recompiling I first noticed this strange thing: checking for Boost headers version = 1.36.0... yes checking for Boost's header version... 1_55 Portage installed boost is 1.52, my custom installed one is 1.55. Then after a few seconds I saw this: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-g++ -DPACKAGE_NAME=\libixion\ -DPACKAGE_TARNAME=\libixion\ - DPACKAGE_VERSION=\0.5.0\ -DPACKAGE_STRING=\libixion\ 0.5.0\ -DPACKAGE_BUGREPORT=\\ -DPACKAGE_URL=\\ -DPACKAGE=\libixion\ -DVERSION=\0.5.0\ -DSTDC_HEADERS=1 - DHAVE_SYS_TYPES_H=1 -DHAVE_SYS_STAT_H=1 -DHAVE_STDLIB_H=1 -DHAVE_STRING_H=1 - DHAVE_MEMORY_H=1 -DHAVE_STRINGS_H=1 -DHAVE_INTTYPES_H=1 -DHAVE_STDINT_H=1 - DHAVE_UNISTD_H=1 -DHAVE_DLFCN_H=1 -DLT_OBJDIR=\.libs/\ -DHAVE_STDLIB_H=1 - DHAVE_SYS_TIME_H=1 -DHAVE_UNISTD_H=1 -DHAVE__BOOL=1 -DHAVE_STDBOOL_H=1 - DHAVE_GETTIMEOFDAY=1 -DHAVE_BOOST=1 -DHAVE_BOOST_UNORDERED_MAP_HPP=1 - DHAVE_MDDS_RECTANGLE_SET_HPP=1 -DHAVE_MDDS_MIXED_TYPE_MATRIX_HPP=1 - DHAVE_MDDS_MULTI_TYPE_VECTOR_TRAIT_HPP=1 -DHAVE_BOOST_SYSTEM_ERROR_CODE_HPP=1 - DHAVE_BOOST_THREAD_HPP=1 -DHAVE_BOOST_PROGRAM_OPTIONS_HPP=1 -I. -I../include - I../lib/libixion/libixion.la -D_REENTRANT -DMDDS_HASH_CONTAINER_BOOST - D__IXION_BUILDING_DLL -g -Os -fvisibility=hidden -O2 -pipe -march=native -c -o ixion_sorter- sort_input_parser.o `test -f 'sort_input_parser.cpp' || echo './'`sort_input_parser.cpp /bin/sh ../libtool --tag=CXX --mode=link x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-g++ -O2 -pipe -march=native -Wl,- O1 -Wl,--as-needed -o ixion-parser ixion_parser-ixion_parser.o ixion_parser-model_parser.o libixion/libixion-0.6.la -lboost_thread-mt -lboost_system-mt -pthread -lboost_program_options-mt libtool: link: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-g++ -O2 -pipe -march=native -Wl,-O1 -Wl,--as-needed -o .libs/ixion-parser ixion_parser-ixion_parser.o ixion_parser-model_parser.o -pthread libixion/.libs/libixion-0.6.so -lboost_thread-mt -lboost_system-mt -lboost_program_options-mt - pthread libixion/.libs/libixion-0.6.so: undefined reference to `boost::thread::start_thread_noexcept()' libixion/.libs/libixion-0.6.so: undefined reference to `boost::thread::join_noexcept()' collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status make[2]: *** [ixion-parser] Error 1 make[2]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/dev-libs/libixion-0.5.0/work/libixion-0.5.0/src' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/dev-libs/libixion-0.5.0/work/libixion-0.5.0/src' make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 * ERROR: dev-libs/libixion-0.5.0::gentoo failed (compile phase): ...so it failed because it tried to use my custom boost...

Kacper Kopczyński There are multiple factors in play, some per package ./configure scripts add -I/usr/local/include so that headers are picked up from there by default, if compiler alone doesn't have that in it's default search path already. There are -L/usr/local/lib added by some, and /usr/local/lib in /etc/ld.so.conf What I'm really trying to say is that you can't install boost safely into /usr/local/lib and include, but you should put it in it's own directory outside of compilers or ld.so's scope, like for example, /home/username/boost, and then when you want something to use it, point the package to search it from there using package specific configure flags and environment variables like LD_LIBRARY_PATH, PKG_CONFIG_PATH, and so forth Bottom line is, It's not a bug you can file to Gentoo's bugzilla, it is expected behavior

For creating 32bit gentoo on 64bit debian use /usr/bin/linux32 before you chroot to gentoo stage root. So the plan I see is: 1. create gentoo on server (linux32, chroot, compile, emerge -e world, etc). You can always recompile world with another set of CFLAGS if you have different machine, so set CGLAGS for generic 686 2. create experimental environment with debian and compiled gentoo in virtualbox 3. learn about problems (bios, grub, grub2, backup copies) 4. do it :) good luck -- Kacper Kopczyński

Please explain, I thought that bad blocks would coincide with some partitions. because defectice partitions don't give you no sense errors nor do they give you zero capacity errors. Read his dmesg. If the firmware/logic board is bad, you might be able to replace it with one from the same model. I've heard of some success from a coworker who took the logic board from a known good drive and put it on a HDD with good internals but a bad logic board, and it worked. That's if you need the data, that is. - Mark Shields After spending many hours on google it seems to me this is a bug in firmware or seagate's firmware on barracuda discs likes to break itself frequently.

I would need it vice versa. Is that possible with baselayout-1? Do I need to switch to baselayout-2? Thanks in advance!

Running on GM 965 kwin got crappy animation speed in KDE 4.4. It was as smooth as compiz in 4.3. I asked about it in the KDE mailing list, but there was zero interest in this regression. So you either have to live with it, or switch to compiz. Thanks for your reply. I am currently using kde 4.3 because I try only to update to downstream-stable. Is there another explanation? Too old drivers and X maybe. Since you're using downstream-stable, but the cool DRM/GL/KMS stuff is only in the latest upstream versions, this might be the problem. kwin is slower on intel cards. Kwin with gnome or xfce is much faster... Intel video cards are very slow... From my experience every version of kde above 3.0 is slower than any other window manager (gnome (sawfish, metacity, enlightenment), xfce(xfwm), compiz, lxde,...), on every machine I've had. It needs more memory, faster hard disks, stable filesystem (ext4::delalloc?), better video card... and so on. Even Qt seems to be slower than GTK+ if you launch application that does similar thing. ...or it's just my imagination :) If you want smooth kde get a nvidia or ati card, at least 256MB, 2GB ram, 1.6GHz.

[gentoo-user] xf86-video-intel, compiz, mplayer -fs file.avi freeze
I have a MSI Wind U100 netbook. I'm using xfce with compiz-fusion. When I try to start mplayer -fs file.avi the Xserver freezes. It also freezes when the logout window of xfce, that gray transparent background, tries to show 3 buttons (logout, restart, poweroff). I can only move mouse cursor. Pressing ctrl+fN, ctrl+backspace, clicking ... does not work. Xorg.0.log says something like EQ overflowing and something about infinite loop. I don't have access to it right now (I'm in job). When compiz is disabled everything works well. Everything started to happen after move from xf86-video-i810 to xf86-video-intel. At least this is a time when it stopped to work for me. I've checked some other versions of that driver by unmasking it and it's dependencies... I tried changing to XAA, EXA in xorg.conf but it did not helped. Can some one help me with this? -- Kacper Kopczyński
[gentoo-user] CodeBlocks and Makefile
I'm tring to set up CodeBlocks to use Makefiles' but the option Build method is still inactive. What should I do to enable it? I want to make a project that compiles under codeblocks and pure console. I'm a vi-freak but my comakers (friends) are not.

[gentoo-user] r8169 and slow transfers over LAN
When I'm tring to transfer a big file from my gentoo box to windows (win_ip) box over smb the speed is about 2kB/s or less (until timeout). If in the same time I start `ping -f win_ip` the speed grows up to about 5MB/s. I couldn't find anything on google. The problem is repeatable on my two computers with r8169 NIC under two different environments (LANs). Issue disappears when I switch to different NIC.
