I have an external USB-3 drive with various system backups. There are 350 .tar
files (not .tar.gz etc.), amounting to 2.5TB. I was sure I wouldn't need to
compress them, so I didn't, but now I think I'm going to have to. Is there a
reasonably efficient way to do this? I have 500GB

Hello list,
Does anyone know whether AMD intend to make their navi cards usable with
opencl under Linux? I have a Radeon Pro W5500, which is a navi 14 card, and
from what I can see neither rocm-opencl nor amdgpu-pro-opencl can drive it.
Rather spoils the point of upgrading to it.

Far too often, Firefox on this box will hide the tab bar, but behave as though

No, it isn't either of those. Nothing has changed between this kernel and
others. Oddly, 'make install' works if I chroot into this system from, e.g., a
Hello list,
Today's update brought in sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-5.10.27, but it comes with
a problem: when I 'make install' I get 'Cannot find LILO'. Of course it can't,

So it
Hello list,
I use gparted often, usually from SystemRescueCD, and a common task is to
move partitions to allow for one to be enlarged. I should be able to specify
all the operations in a list, but whenever I do that gparted inserts 1MB gaps
between partitions, so I have to do one at a time.

Hello list,
I have a Pi 400, on which I'd like to install Gentoo if I can. I've tried a
few approaches so far, but each one has fallen foul of some obstacle. For
instance, today I tried installing a small Gentoo system into a chroot, to do
the compiling there. It seemed to be going well until

Have you thought of using rust-bin instead of rust? "emerge -1 rust-bin" It
saves prodigious amounts
