The Wicd init script does not provide the net service, I assume the NM one does. If that is the case, the long term solution is to file a bug report to get this fixed.

[gentoo-user] problem with Bluetooth / BlueZ
Hello, at first: my english is not very well, so i hope you understand me. And I'm new to gentoo (new to linux at all), so I don't have a good comprehension of this OS (and that's why I write this prose, because I don't know which information are important). My problem is about Bluetooth/BlueZ and sadly i found out that not many gentoo-users are familiar with that - if someone of you is: please read the following: What's my problem: I have two gentoo-PCs and a Bluetooth-3.0-Dongle at each PC. Some weeks ago, BlueZ-4.98 was installed and I had no problems to connect my devices with rfcomm-command and with pand-command. But then I wanted to sniff this connection with an air sniffer. For that I found out, that sniffing only works if I enable the so called SSP Debug Mode. But Enabling SSP Debug Mode is no default feature of BlueZ, so I got a patch from the BlueZ-developer and i installed it. At the same time BlueZ-4.99 was released and I also installed that. With that patch I was able to sniff my rfomm-connection. BUT since that I am not able to connect my devices via pand-command! Maybe the installation of BlueZ4.99 or patch changed some bluetooth-configuration? I don't know. But if I run hcidump and try to connect via pand, I get the message, that there is a security block. Hope anyone of you know what to do. In addition: I think I have to change my security-configuration, but I'm not familiar with the syntax (and I hope I picked the right file to change): http://tomoyo.sourceforge.jp/cgi-bin/lxr/source/include/net/bluetooth/bluetooth.h#L60 In attachment you find the two hcidump-messages from both devices while I tried to connect via pand.

a possibility could be to get the label or UUID of the device. blkid will give you a list to find out. you could then enter the device in fstab with either LABEL=label or UUID=uuid, bypassing the need to use /dev/something, which for USB-disks might change from one system start to the next hope I understood your problem correctly michael -- Michael Scherer Univ.klinik f.

[gentoo-user] Nouveau driver turns off video when I start X
I started a thread a while ago about looking for an accelerated video card. I went and got an ASUS EN210 Silent PCIe card and followed the instructions at the Gentoo Nouveau wiki. I have not been able to get X running yet. Trying to launch X with startx blanks the screen, and I can't get it back. Note that the machine does *NOT* lock up, rather the video gets disabled until I reboot. I can ssh into the machine. It appears to be working fine. If I... * start a root text console in TTY8 * switch to TTY9 * startx The screen goes blank and I can't get graphics or GUI, no matter what I do. I can ssh in from another machine and things look OK. As a matter of fact, I can {CTRL-ALT-F8} and blindly issue the command reboot or halt -p, and it gets executed. The attached Xorg.log file shows nothing wrong. Xorg -configure does generate an xorg.conf.new file, but screams about... (EE) [drm] No DRICreatePCIBusID symbol Number of created screens does not match number of detected devices. Configuration failed. Server terminated with error (2). Closing log file. The Gentoo Nouveau wiki says that message comes either from disabling DRI (which I didn't do) or from the wrong opengl.

Re: [gentoo-user] Nouveau driver turns off video when I start X
Proprietary drivers work fine with 3.2.1. Haven't tried 3.2.12.

[gentoo-user] initramfs with lvm
I get problom with my initramfs.: 1. I used to boot my kernel with genkernel-initramfs, but I must genarate the initramfs again by genkernel. when I change the kernel vernsion. 2. I have the '/' partition created with lvm, when I use genkernel to make the kernel and initramfs( with option --lvm ), the error block device /dev/mapper/vg-gentoo_root is not a valid root device show up. kernel version 3.2.2 3. I try to emerge dracut-018 to create my initramfs, but I use the USE DRACUT_MODULES=lvm, which try to emerge device-mapper and conflict with lvm2. I am pullzed. thx in advance.

Re: [gentoo-user] Nouveau driver turns off video when I start X
Wait a second, was just scimming this and saw you mention blue faces. I have a 210 using the latest binary drivers from nvidia and it seems like all red color shows up as blue in the flash player (and only flash player). It had never happened any time previously, and this was a new install. Frankly I have no idea how to fix it, but I mostly ignored it until now because of html5 videos (where the problem doesn't occur). Not sure I'll be able to reply with details after this but I thought I'd mention it Alecks Gates, sent from Android on an HTC G2 On Apr 18, 2012 9:28 PM, Walter Dnes waltd...@waltdnes.org wrote: On Wed, Apr 18, 2012 at 05:21:28PM -0400, Michael Mol wrote Proprietary drivers work fine with 3.2.1.

Re: [gentoo-user] Nouveau driver turns off video when I start X
Sounds like a bad color transform in Flash or the video driver. Maybe the U and V channels are being swapped. No idea why, though.
