Fdisk can not work with drives larger than 2TB. Your drive may be slightly (10 mb) larger than that, so the result.

On Tue, Jan 7, 2014 at 12:20 AM, James wirel...@tampabay.rr.com wrote: Google, Summer of Code, is a very wonderful idea for the Open Source Community: http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/homepage/google/gsoc2014 No doubt many are scheming as to what would be good project ideas. Many really good ideas come from the rank and file of users. (Gmane.org is back online). Those (gifted? fledgling_gifted) often code good ideas directly. I think now is the time to have a robust (community) discussion on what the users of this list think would be good ideas for GSOC projects, which are Gentoo centric. My experiences with ALL current search engines, is there is quite a lot of low_quality results; which may be a direct result of the masses of those folks trying to learn/use unix/linux/gentoo by poorly formed google (et. al.) searches. Those low quality efforts statistically stack up against those few robustly accurate searches (from folks like the users of this list) so as to contaiminate search engines by the sheer number of poorly formed search engine efforts. I.E. it's not the fault of the search engine(?). So, Naturally, here is my idea. Collectively, if you look at this list archive and other such gentoo-centric resources, there is a wealth of good information that traverses our paths, and is then subsequently burried into the annals of lifeless data, only occasionally pinged by exasperating google searches, or gleaned from the multitude of records we each privately maintain. So, some sort of tool/app/parser that can glean information from the various gentoo-centric resources and store the data for later searching would be useful. Then a variety of experimental front ends could be tested (or developed anew) to query that data with relevant searches and very targeted searches. By limiting the focus to all things Gentoo, we could serve ourselves up crudely basic, but highly valuable information specific to the Gentoo-centric paramenters that one uses for this in-house database. This effort would mostly priortize the data returned in searches by some sort of *quality metric*. For example it could be simply that the most experienced dev would rate a *100 (times 100) multiplier on the quality of their searches. Recognized power users might rate a *25 rating. Ordinary folks a *1 rating on quality. This system would not even have to be open to the rank and file internet, except as a source of data returned to search engines like google, for example. Other distros could eventually do the same thing, and then Google could probe these databases, gaining specific user-community preferences of excellent quality (accuracy) search-data from folks steeped in all things Gentoo. Basically, a schemea is developed that allows the strongest of the Gentoo community to radically improve the quality of gentoo-specific searches, with very little efforts. For the devs and such, it could merely be a front-end to their own google searches. Folks would not have to use this front-end, if they do not want to. So, what is your idea for GSOC_2014? http://wiki.gentoo.org/index.php?title=Google_Summer_of_Code/2013/Ideas

Re: [gentoo-user] Slow application start, LC_CTYPE and XCreateFontSet
Initially I had similar behavior as you, except that en_US.UTF-8 was
faster and others slower (my laptop is a 1.8 GHz AMD64).
But, after repeated invocations of 'time xterm ...' all versions
settled down to the same value: ~0.25 seconds.
Maybe you should post your question on some X-related mailing list.

Hello,
I've installed new laptop few weeks ago and everything is running fine
except for all (most?) X applications taking few seconds to start.
I've tracked the problem down with ltrace to XCreateFontSet() call
that blocks for more than 2 seconds.
Searching on google lead me some forums about problem with this call and
UTF-8 encodings.
Further tests showed that the problem is related only to having locale
set to en_US.UTF-8.
Setting locale to anything else seems to solve it (even en_US)
$ time LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 xterm -e echo
real0m2.422s
user0m0.010s
sys 0m0.012s
$ time LC_ALL=cs_CZ.UTF-8 xterm -e echo
real0m0.065s
user0m0.048s
sys 0m0.010s
That's probably the reason I never saw it before, I usually have some
non-english locale on my system. (czech/japanese/russian, none of them
affected)
Specificaly, it seems to be related to LC_CTYPE setting.
strace shows lots output similar to:
poll([{fd=3, events=POLLIN, revents=POLLIN}], 1, -1) = 1
read(3,
\1\0\212\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\351\0\0\0\0\0\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0,

read(3, 0x7fff831995a0, 32) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource

I tried to generate al locales with 'locale-gen -A' and to install some
other fonts (to have the same font set as on other machine where it
works fine) and nothing helped at all.
Any ideas how can I solve it?
Does it mean that I'm missing some fonts? Or something else? I'm running

[gentoo-user] libselinux.so.1 dependency problems
Since the package sys-libs/libselinux is masked --- at least on AMD64
it is --- I ran
emerge --depclean --verbose sys-libs/libselinux
and the only reverse dependency it reported was python-selinux. So I
removed both packages and severely broke my system.
It turns out that many, many executables require libselinux.so.1,
despite what the documentation of --depclean in man emerge says
(or what I think it says -- is this a bug or operator error?)
I cobbled together a system that limps along thanks to the 2008.0 beta
LiveCD (which does not depend on libselinux.so.1), but I am unable
to emerge a large number of packages that seem to silently depend on
libselinux.so.1: the ebuilds fail when ld cannot find -lselinux.
I do not have USE=selinux anywhere, and I never have. There is no
selinux in the output of emerge --info, and none of the build
environment files I've checked contain selinux. libselinux.so.1 is
not in directory in /etc/ld.so.conf. Adding USE=-selinux on the
command line or in /etc/make.conf does not make any difference.
revdep-rebuild lists 37 packages, in particular many GNOME packages,
that depend on libselinux.so.1, but I don't seem to be able to
re-emerge any of them.
I ran
for pkg in $(equery depends libselinux | cut -d' ' -f1); do
eix -e $(qatom ${pkg} | cut -d' ' -f2)
done
and every package shown that depends on libselinux has actually been
installed with -selinux. (BTW, revdep-rebuild and equery depends
don't agree on which packages depend on libselinux.so.1.)
What gives? Where does the -lselinux come from? How can I get rid of
this maddening dependency?
Thanks for any help.
BTW, as a temporary measure, I've created an empty libselinux.so.1
that seems to satisfy ld.

[gentoo-user] 'Insufficient space to store' on a network share
Hello. I have the file server which exports /usr/portage/ via smbfs. It is mounted in following way. /dev/xxx to /usr/portage (~512M) /dev/yyy to /usr/portage/distfiles (~10G, 7G currently free) I'm mounting smb://fs/portage/ to /usr/portage (rw) on my clients, and when I'm trying to fetch huge package portage tells me Insufficient space to store (and yes, df -h shows that there are about 200 Mb free, but I'm sure that distfiles/ have enough space). How can I omit this error and force portage not to check my diskspace.

How can I omit this error and force portage not to check my diskspace. That's a silly idea. The reason portage checks such things is to avoid running a command that is guaranteed to fail, and you are trying to bypass that. What is the package you are trying to fetch, how big is it, how much disk space do you have free (full df -h please) and what is the full output to the console? Emerging (1 of 1) games-fps/americas-army-250 to / !!! Insufficient space to store armyops250-linux.run in /usr/portage/distfiles !!! Couldn't download 'armyops250-linux.run'.

Re: [gentoo-user] File extensions in Kmail attachments
On 5/31/07, Mick [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I noticed that when I open an attachment from within Kmail it adds odd extensions to the file, which are retained when I later on try to save it on the disk; e.g. a spreadsheet opened with OOo is shown as: Notes from yesterdays mtg.xls_[yQHODa]. Furthermore, when I click on SaveAs in OOo it automatically opens the directory /tmp/kde-michael/ as opposed to /home/michael. Would you perhaps know how I could fix this? I think, you cat fix this only via patching sources. When you open mail attachment, KMail extracts it from message body and saves it to tmp dir in order to other apps can open it. -- Vladimir Rusinov GreenMice Solutions: IT-решения на базе Linux http://greenmice.info/
Re: [gentoo-user] Amarok, track length and moodbar problem...
On 5/22/07, Nistor Andrei [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask, but i'm experiencing some weird behaviour in Amarok. The problem is that with some songs the length is not displayed. I'm unable to scroll forwards or backwards in the song, and moodbar does not work on those songs either. Do you have any idea why this is happening? I've attached a screenshot... I have the same problem: some song's length uncknown and they are unscollable. I'm NOT using moodbar, and using xine engine. When I'm trying to play this tracks with mplayer, it shows some errors, so I assume this tracks is a bit damaged. I heard about some mp3 repair tool. -- Vladimir Rusinov GreenMice Solutions: IT-решения на базе Linux http://greenmice.info/

Re: [gentoo-user] Backing up my box
On 4/24/07, Mark Somerville [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I've got an 8Gb Gentoo virtual machine that I'm working out a backup plan for. Since the disk space is pretty small, I'm thinking about just taking a full image of the disk for backups, rather than cherry-picking DBs, mail, etc. I'd like to take a full image every day (but only transfer the differences), which I'll store for a week. Does this sound like a reasonable enough approach? Any suggestions appreciated, Try flexbackup. -- Vladimir Rusinov GreenMice Solutions: opensource IT solutions http://greenmice.info/
