 Hello everyone,
 
 When attempting to create a LUKS encrypted partition, I get get device

 Whenever I continue and reach the point to install genkernel with 
 cryptsetup flags to generate the ramdisk with LUKS modules in it, it 
 prompts me to install thin-provisioning-tools , but the compile fails 
 for some reason and I can see that people have reported this issue in

you.


 July 12, but so far this ebuild has not been fixed. Also the x86 
 installation image is compiled with bash that targets i486 and those 
 downloading the i686 stage 3 tarball will be surprised to see Illegal 
 instructions that they are not able to chroot unless they download i486 
 tarball or compile the bash shell.

That's strange since i486 is a subset of i686.

Unless you actually need thin provisioning, and f you don't know what it
is you don't need it, add this to package.use.

I had this issue with cryptsetup. I believe it is an unloaded or

Will see if I can find more in the meantime.

 It's probably OCD of me to care, but I would prefer the mails to

Some (don't know about gentoo's) versions of the mail command have a -r 
switch that lets you specify the from address.

In any case, if, instead of mail/mailx, you use a sendmail-compatible agent 
like ssmtp, there you'll definitely have a -r option.

  for obvious reasons, anything longer than 80 characters

 Just to be pedantic:

 Remember that the mailing list prepends the list name, so I think it
 ought to be

 80 - strlen([gentoo-user] ) = 66 chars.

 And if you care about most console mail readers, take mutt for
 example, the default install definitely does not use more than half of
 the 80 chars screen width for displaying the subject line. So now you
 are down to 40 - 14 = 26.

 Oh wait, your question may incite a big discussion with 6 levels of
 replies:

 26 - 6 * strlen(Re: ) = 2.

 Ah! I see why someone changed the subject of this thread to just OK.

 ;-)

Apologies, I was being facetious (I corrected the Subject field back to the 
original on this reply).  There is indeed a need to write meaningful Subject 
lines and keep them as short as possible.  However, the 80 characters that 
Alan suggested may be appropriate for the body of the message, but not for 
the Subject line which is  invariably shorter.

I think that as long as common sense prevails we should be able to nail this 
one to most participants satisfaction.

PS. On the other hand one would think that common sense ought to also help to 
avoid top posting and html messages /sigh

I prefer as much info as possible myself.  Sometimes the subject can be 
one thing but because there is little info in it, it turns out to be 
something else.  Of course, a error message can be really nice too.  
It's good if you are searching for the error you are having.  I would 
rather have a long one than a short one with not enough info to know 
whether I can help or not.  Of course, the one for this is short but 
doesn't mention anything about others being to long.  I was hoping to 
see someone suggesting that people should have better than need help 
or something.  Maybe it should have been  can we have shorter subject 
lines please or something like that.  Of course, that means it is 
longer.  LOL


I also wish the forum subject lines could be longer and have a special

When viewed on a narrow screen and the first few words convey no useful
information on their own. I think the important point is that subject
lines should be concise and succinct. Long is not a problem in itself, as
long as every word is relevant. Subjects line Please help me! I have a

Two for one fire sale!  Hope this leaves you a little wiser :-)

Here's how to unsubscribe:

First, ask your Internet Provider to mail you an Unsubscribing Kit.
Then follow these directions.

The kit will most likely be the standard no-fault type. Depending on
requirements, System A and/or System B can be used. When operating
System A, depress lever and a plastic dalkron unsubscriber will be
dispensed through the slot immediately underneath. When you have
fastened the adhesive lip, attach connection marked by the large X
outlet hose. Twist the silver-coloured ring one inch below the
connection point until you feel it lock.

The kit is now ready for use. The Cin-Eliminator is activated by the
small switch on the lip.  When securing, twist the ring back to its
initial condition, so that the two orange lines meet.  Disconnect.
Place the dalkron unsubscriber in the vacuum receptacle to the rear.
Activate by pressing the blue button.

The controls for System B are located on the opposite side. The red
release switch places the Cin-Eliminator into position; it can be
adjusted manually up or down by pressing the blue manual release
button. The opening is self-adjusting. To secure after use, press the
green button, which simultaneously activates the evaporator and
returns the Cin-Eliminator to its storage position.

You may log off if the green exit light is on over the evaporator.  If
the red light is illuminated, one of the Cin-Eliminator requirements
has not been properly implemented. Press the List Guy call button on
the right of the evaporator. He will secure all facilities from his
control panel.

To use the Auto-Unsub, first undress and place all your clothes in the
clothes rack. Put on the velcro slippers located in the cabinet
immediately below. Enter the shower, taking the entire kit with
you. On the control panel to your upper right upon entering you will
see a Shower seal button. Press to activate. A green light will then
be illuminated immediately below. On the intensity knob, select the
desired setting. Now depress the Auto-Unsub activation lever. Bathe
normally.

The Auto-Unsub will automatically go off after three minutes unless
you activate the Manual off override switch by flipping it up. When
you are ready to leave, press the blue Shower seal release
button. The door will open and you may leave. Please remove the velcro
slippers and place them in their container.

If you prefer the ultrasonic log-off mode, press the indicated blue
button. When the twin panels open, pull forward by rings A  B. The
knob to the left, just below the blue light, has three settings, low,
medium or high. For normal use, the medium setting is suggested.

After these settings have been made, you can activate the device by
switching to the ON position the clearly marked red switch. If
during the unsubscribing operation you wish to change the settings,
place the manual off override switch in the OFF position. You may
now make the change and repeat the cycle. When the green exit light
goes on, you may log off and have lunch. Please close the door behind
you.
