[gentoo-user] Encfs suddenly read-only
I have been using encfs to store most of my home dir for ages. I rebooted Sunday morning (it's a ~amd64 system) to change kernel to 3.3.5 from 3.3.4, and sometime overnight, after the nightly backups and mail archives had run, the encfs mounted partition became read-only. I know the timing only by the cron jobs; the nightly mail backup moves files from the /home partition to the encfs partition, and it had not failed. I unmounted the encfs partition, remounted, and it was read-only right from the get go. There are no errors in /var/log/messages of any sort since the 3.3.5 boot. The mount command showed both the encfs partition and the underlying regular partition as rw, not ro. I just now rebooted back to 3.3.4, and it's read-write, but so was 3.3.5 at the beginning, and for at least 20 hours. I do not know if the read-only switch was from a time delay, from some activity, from the kernel change, or some other package. If it lasts a day or two without switching to read-only, I will try 3.3.5 again. I am going to set up a screen session to check the rw capability every minute, to see if pinning down the time helps any with the log file. Does anyone know of any package changes that would have caused this? Neither google nor the gentoo bug search found anything interesting for encfs or fuser. -- ... _._. ._ ._. . _._. ._. ___ .__ ._. . .__. ._ .. ._.

If I remember correctly, EncFS is not a file system on it's own, it's more like an addon to any other file system. So maybe the problem is not with EncFS, but the underlaying file system. A wild guess would be that the underlaying filesystem of your EncFS partition is ext2/3/4 and has run out of inodes? You can check the inode count with 'df -i' This happend to me once, but I cannot remember if the file system then was mounted readonly or there were 'out-of-space' error messages. If that does not help, try to fsck your EncFS partition. Unmount first.

It's a reiserfs, and df -i shows zeroes; I had never given any thought to reiserfs and inodes. Interesting. If that does not help, try to fsck your EncFS partition. Unmount first. I may try that later. What puzzles me is that remounting without reboot still came up read-only, even tho it had been read-write for 20 hours, and reboot came up read-write. I wonder if some timeout feature was added to encfs or fuser, such that if there is no activity for a certain time, it becomes read-only. I didn't see any such change in any release notes. My little screen jobis still creating files every minute, and will defeat any such timeout, so there's something else to investigate later. encfs was last emerged 14 March. fuser was last emerged 23 Apr. I have rebooted several times since then, so I don't think either of them had any sudden surprises left. -- ... _._. ._ ._. . _._. ._. ___ .__ ._. . .__. ._ .. ._.

USB3 is a _very_ different animal from earlier versions. You get nice things like DMA, and your CPU usage is far lower than USB2, since the CPU doesn't have to poll the USB controller for status updates. Honestly, I'm very impressed at how similar those two printouts look, stat wise. It's a close call to be able to identify which is which, and I'm not really confident I did. -- :wq

Looks like 'ls' is being substituted for 'ld', maybe? Is that a cut-and- paste error? Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing? http://linux.sgms-centre.com/misc/netiquette.php *** Below are a set of rules by which you should try and abide whenever posting to a public area such as USENET or a mailing list. They are designed with one thing in mind: being polite to your fellow netizens. Failure to do so can make you look at best inconsiderate, if not plain stupid, or even lead more seasoned netizens to believe that you're trolling (deliberately stirring up a fuss in order to draw attention to yourself and/or start up a fight - or flamefest). In the long run you'll just get yourself PLONKED (added to people's killfiles so they no longer have to read what you have to say), which is fairly counter-productive if your intentions are worthy. You can avoid yourself this embarrassment (and everybody else's displeasure) by following the basic rules described here: ... 9. DO NOT TOP-POST and DO trim your replies!!! Top-posting is the annoying practice of replying to a message by typing your response above that to which you are responding. This is a _Bad Thing_ because your readers will have to scroll down and extract the essential of the existing thread in order to grasp the context of your reply, and then scroll back up again to read your reply. Posting a me too comment at the bottom of a 100+ line message is no better because people, have to scroll all the way down through 100+ lines they've already read in order to see your one-liner. One word comes to mind for that: frustrating. The generally accepted right way of doing things is called inline posting, whereby you insert your comments straight after that on which you are commenting, having stripped unnecessary text from the original quoted text. The end result is something which makes much more sense because it reads like a conversation. Remember, in a list, you are not only writing for the person who you are responding to. You are posting for whoever may be interested in the topic. While I appreciate that you may not benefit from top posting since you know the context, this is not true for someone who has linked to your message or who is reading it days, weeks or years later. :) Terry

[gentoo-user] HP A8 laptop install
Well, I just got this new HP A8 laptop. After setting up the default windows, I modified the bios boot order to use the internal DVD. Then I inserted a 12.0 lived DVD. It put for small gentoo symbols across the top, then went blank after 3 minutes. The DVD drive was very active for about 5 minutes then silence? Any suggestions or install guides are most welcome. It's been a few years since I installed Gentoo on a laptop and lots has change. Right now, I'm downloading the 12.1 liveDVD to see if it will boot that. Both were the amd64-multilib version. The lived DVD work on other (older) 64amd machines I have. If not then its on to to knoppix or ubuntu to see it will boot any linux distro. Years ago, when I last did a dual boot install, there was a windows method for shrinking the windows partition. Then I repartitioned the drive and put gentoo on those new partitions. Has that approached, using grub changed? The guides I seen to be finding via google, look dated. It a dv7 model AtB11UA (6C23CL?) from Costco. I got a week or 2 to get the dual boot working correctly, or it goes back to Costco; so any advice is welcome. Any feedback is welcome.

I got a week or 2 to get the dual boot working correctly, or it goes back to Costco; so any advice is welcome. For the same reason I decided to leave the factory boot block alone and used the free downloadable BCDEdit utility to add a second item to the Windows boot menu. Really nifty, it even lets you chainload grub from there. When you install grub, just remember to put its boot block on your gentoo partition, not the Windows partition.

Does anyone know how to change to bottom-posting on either client? So around here we say don't top post rather bottom bottom, but what we actually mean is inline post with your contribution below the portion you are replying to and extraneous bits of the quoted text removed. Also liberal use of [snip] tags is encouraged. We generally tolerate gmail webapp users (trying to inline post on that is hard to do but possible) and reluctantly accept the smartphone users often have no choice as it's impossible to do anything other than top post on many devices (especially BlackBerrys). Such users should leave the nice Sent from my BlackBerry comment at the bottom, it helps indicate you can't avoid the top-post. All of these rules are like any other form of good manners - designed to smooth communication and make it a pleasant thing to do. Just like in real life, it's equally good manners to indicate up-front if you can't do the norm. Example: some places it's expected that men stand up when a lady enters the room. But not if the man has a broken leg, in which case he should make sure the plaster cast and crutches can be seen. See how it works? :-) -- Alan McKinnnon alan.mckin...@gmail.com

Started on the command line, there are very few, I can play the video for minutes without a gap. Hooray! In KDE, I usually play videos by opening them in Dolphin. I exchanged 'mplayer %U' by 'xterm -T MPLAYER -e mplayer %U' in the settings, now mplayer runs in a terminal, and all is fine. I created a window rule so the terminal automatically minimizes. Cool! It only happens in mplayer and mplayer2. Other players work fine, but I like mplayer best, and prefer to run it without any window decoration. Now, would this be an MPlayer problem, or one of Dolphin? I wonder if Dolphin is generating thumbnails/preview indexes at the same time you're trying to play, causing resource contention. I wonder if you can disable thumbnail generation by Dolphin or remove the association it has with video files and mplayer.

Right now, I'm downloading the 12.1 liveDVD to see if it will boot that. Both were the amd64-multilib version. The lived DVD work on other (older) 64amd machines I have. If not then its on to to knoppix or ubuntu to see it will boot any linux distro. Years ago, when I last did a dual boot install, there was a windows method for shrinking the windows partition. Then I repartitioned the drive and put gentoo on those new partitions. Has that approached, using grub changed? The guides I seen to be finding via google, look dated. It a dv7 model AtB11UA (6C23CL?) from Costco. I got a week or 2 to get the dual boot working correctly, or it goes back to Costco; so any advice is welcome. You can install Gentoo using any linux live CD. I recommend the minimal install CD. There's not much it won't boot on. ;) Terry

Re: [gentoo-user] merging or fitting images together
I tried Hugin, but got nowhere. I set 6 points on each picture, which are 2 overlapping parts of a single original negative, but all it offered was a black screen; I did follow the on-line help. Then I tried Imagemagick got a good result after a bit of fussing. The commands I used were convert -size 1000x760 canvas:black brum-canvas.jpg composite -geometry +0+0 brum-3070.jpg brum-canvas.jpg brum-1.jpg composite -geometry +220-8 brum-3068.jpg brum-1.jpg brum-2.jpg You can see the images at http://www.chass.utoronto.ca/~purslow/test/ : they are of trams in Colmore Row, Birmingham in May 1953 . I still need to light/darken 1 image a bit to hide the join, but as a proof of concept this shows it's feasible with Imagemagick.
