Well, at least there's 2.5GB disk space - think it is enough :-) I've temprarily rename the link (libGL.a), install the wine and then renamed the link back - it looks like wine works and the rest of the system too - hope :-) Thanks Pat On Mon, 10 Apr 2006 10:36:42 +0200, François Steinmetz wrote 'emerge wine' needs quite a lot of disk space, have you checked you didn't run out of disk ?

[gentoo-user] seg fault follows emerge ftpd
Hello everyone, I did an emerge ftpd ([ebuild N]ftpd-0.17-r3) on a K6 PC and after it started compiling it stalled for a few hours on the same line so I ctrl-c'd outta there and ran emerge again.

[gentoo-user] Question about 2006.0 and order of NIC detection
Hi everyone! Relatively new to Gentoo. Been more of a FreeBSD guy the past few years, but current job is setting up Gentoo boxes, so I get to learn a bunch of new stuff (yay!). Machine in question has an Intel gig-E PCI card (e1000 driver) and two Tigron gig-E ports built into the motherboard (tg3 driver). So, I downloaded the 2006.0 (I keep typing 2600 Hehe..) live-cd, and when I boot from it, the motherboard ports come up as eth0 and eth1, and the Intel as eth2 and eth3. This makes sense. We like this. However, once I install, the system decides Oh no, we're going to screw with your head now, boy! and switches it so that the *Intel* card comes up as eth0/1 and the on-board ports are eth2/3. Is there a way I can change this so that eth0/1 are the on-board ports? It will save me lots of headaches later. :) Thank you all in advance--and I have to say--nice job on the spiffy-new installer interface! :) Best, --Glenn -- Glenn E.

[gentoo-user] Dependency info is missing! Run /sbin/depscan.sh
*sigh* Why is there always something breaking? I did some updates to 'world' and 'system' last night as I've done a hundred times before. Everything seemed to be going fine. I don't believe I updated anything sensitive. I don't believe I rm'd anything important. I was happily/frustratingly trying to figure out why X7 doesn't work with my 'nvidia' driver. And was mildly relieved to get the 'nv' driver working so at least I had a GUI. I was all 'etc-update' caught up and current. I decided to reboot to make sure everything was going to be good and no surprises... Of course that was wishful thinking when it comes to Linux... At some point in the bootup process towards the end, just after Cleaning /tmp directory I start getting a few of these: * Dependancy info is missing! Please run * #/sbin/depscan.sh * to fix this. Well, of course I do run that script and it does absolutely nothing. No output. No anything. I can't get networking to work. /etc/init.d/net.eth0 start gives the same error, as does any other script in that directory. ifconfig just returns nothing. Google for 'dependency info is missing /sbin/depscan.sh' turns up nothing useful. And bugs.gentoo.org has 4 bugs for /sbin/depscan.sh but none seem right. I tried emerge --metadata (I'm just wildly guessing at this point), to no avail. This forum suggested: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=128368 touch /var/lib/init.d/softlevel which I did.

Well I think ~x86 is generally usable, but you do have to be a bit more cautious. For example, I don't mind --sync every day, but I tend to delay any updates that involve portage, baselayout, or other lowlevel system packages until Friday nights, after making a backup, so I have the whole weekend to pickup the pieces if something should break. And today I think if you encounter anything stable that depends on a ~x86 package, it is a bug, and should be filed as such. My file is empty?! :( Is there a way to rebuild this file? The job of depscan.sh is to rebuild this file. But if the file exists and is newer than the configuration in /etc, it will not do anything, even it if deptree is empty. So delete deptree, and run depscan.sh again with the --debug option. You should see a bit more happen. How did this happen? A badly timed Ctrl-alt-del or reboot could be the culprit.

RE: [gentoo-user] Modular Xorg 7 won't start with nVidia GeForce4 440 Go
I'm getting closer to narrowing this down. One of the problems is that /sbin/NVmakedevices.sh has been yanked from me in some nvidia ebuild update. Grr. Do this instead: - # /etc/conf.d/local.start # This is a good place to load any misc programs # on startup ( use 12 to hide output) # added by DV as per some email discussion on the nVidia drivers and UDEV for i in 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7; do node=/dev/nvidia$i rm -f $node mknod $node c 195 $i || echo mknod \$node\ chmod 0660 $node || echo chmod \$node\ chown :video $node|| echo chown \$node\ done node=/dev/nvidiactl rm -f $node mknod $node c 195 255 || echo mknod \$node\ chmod 0666 $node|| echo chmod \$node\ chown :video $node || echo chown \$node\ - The module still loaded which was throwing me off. I would have expected it not to. So what is causing X7 to crash is when I set: eselect opengl set nvidia X won't even start (see previous emails for the errors). It wants to. The screen goes blank and the resolution blinks and then crash. But if I set: eselect opengl set xorg-x11 Then X7 starts, but glxgears appears to barely move, yet it claims ~230fps ?!!? All of this worked just fine in X6.8.

However, I did take (someones?) suggestion and tried both the vesa and nv drivers and they both work. I say work because with 'vesa', I get a HUGE (i.e. low rez) screen = unuseable. And with the 'nv' I get the right resolution 1600x1200, but I get horrible frame-rates (glxgears).

RE: [gentoo-user] Dependency info is missing! Run /sbin/depscan.sh
Well I think ~x86 is generally usable, but you do have to be a bit more cautious. For example, I don't mind --sync every day, but I tend to delay any updates that involve portage, baselayout, or other lowlevel system packages until Friday nights, after making a backup, so I have the whole weekend to pickup the pieces if something should break. I agree fully. That doesn't make it any less frustrating when things go wrong ;-) I am fairly cautious. I've learned to not upgrade my servers unless needed, and I use my notebook as the testing ground. But there are still slight differences that cause me headaches here and there. I've also found that doing these upgrades during the week-days, it's easier to get someone to respond on the list. Friday night and weekends tend to have a delay till Monday -- where your email gets lost in a sea of others and deleted. During the week, people are monitoring their inbox more frequently and theres a better chance of a reply. Plus I do this while at my work, so I have another computer to use to get online and send emails with, if I hose my notebook (like the past few days ) ;-) And today I think if you encounter anything stable that depends on a ~x86 package, it is a bug, and should be filed as such. Well, again, that was a while ago, and now I'm used to the package.keywords file... My file is empty?! :( Is there a way to rebuild this file? The job of depscan.sh is to rebuild this file. But if the file exists and is newer than the configuration in /etc, it will not do anything, even it if deptree is empty. So delete deptree, and run depscan.sh again with the --debug option. You should see a bit more happen. Good to know for future reference. How did this happen? A badly timed Ctrl-alt-del or reboot could be the culprit. There is a window of opportunity while depscan is running that if it is aborted, will leave you with an empty file. Ah. Well glad to know it's not anything that couldn't be rebuilt. It seems that 'baselayout' did that for me. As always Richard, I think you for your patience and knowledge. I also really got a kick out of your name/email address...

Yep, merging baselayout touches /etc/init.d, and runs depscan.sh in the post-install steps. I guess another case where things could go bad is if you ran out of space on /var at a critical point, the depscan.sh could fail. And the way the post-install steps run depscan, you would not see any failures from it. I also really got a kick out of your name/email address...

Probably this is the main cause, will check mysql.eclass where the main part of mysql ebuild is located (the eclass seems to be the culprit here ;) Haven't checked Bugzilla, if nothing present there please file a Bug. PS: or if in a hurry change manually (in overlay) or make a new digest. HTH.
