Unfortunately, it didn't work. Are you perhaps using openrc-0.25 and have rc_parallel=YES if so this is a known bug and just set it to NO or use a ~ version of openrc and everything will be ok.

RE: [gentoo-user] netstat command
is there a way to find out the time when the port was connected in netstat command For example netstat -anp | grep 12001 Dont think so. If its a server opening the port, look for syslog messages from the daemon.

I have it all setup and everthing is working, however, when I boot up my gentoo system it says... Bringing up interface ath0 starting wpa_supplicant on ath0 ioctl[SIOCSIWMODE]: invalid argument Could not configure driver to use managed mode Starting wpa_cli on ath0... Backgrounding WARNING:net.ath0 has started, but is inactive I think something must be configured the wrong way. How do I fix this? I think I want master mode not managed mode I think this problem may have to do with the fact I am using baselayout 2.0.0 but am not totally sure. What does ioctl[SIOCSIWMODE]: invalid argument mean? What does inactive mean? Again, everything is working so this isn't a major problem but I would still like to fix it. Thanks Jason I'm not sure if this will help but I did a little googleing for ya.

Re: [gentoo-user] media-video/totem-2.20.3 Access violation
All the problems above are related to python byte code, and the way it is handled in gentoo. It would be to exhaustive to explain the problems here but maybe this bug [1] helps to understand the problem. Also if you want to learn more about python in gentoo you can read this [2]. In the case of scons and docbook the problem is the same as mentoned in the bug where python bytecode is installed into the wrong filesystem location. Other problems can occur when the python eclasses which handle the python byte code are not used at all or improperly used with python applications. For instance when python byte code is not handled by the eclasses the py{c,o} files are created at runtime when using the program as root. At deinstallation this files are not removed from the filesystem because the package manager is not aware of them.

I believe there are. I used to use slocate when I had tens of thousands of mp3s and other media files. Its a lot of times its faster to use slocate or locate than a find to find a certain file. I believe the OP's intentions are to determine if slocate would have any benefit specifically for portage related utilities. And with that, there would not be any benefit to the average user IMHO, as slocate is updated usually nightly ( when installed ) and as such if the utilities were using the results obtained from that utility, it might apply changes which would be detrimental to the system, assuming changes have been made to portage or installed apps since the updatedb run. Right. Still, I like having the locate command. About those nightly updates they suck, updatedb creates much load on my systems, and the updatedb cronjob always just kicks in when I don't want it. But I think I just found a solution to this: emerge -C slocate emerge mlocate time updatedb time updatedb mlocate is supposed to be compatible with slocate, but the updatedb command runs much faster. Well, the first time it takes a little longer, but after this it's fast. The website says: mlocate is a locate/updatedb implementation. The 'm' stands for merging: updatedb reuses the existing database to avoid rereading most of the file system, which makes updatedb faster and does not trash the system caches as much. I don't know why it is faster to scan a directory hierarchy for its files than to verify which of the files in la list are still there and which new ones are there, but I saw the difference. Wonko

Re: [gentoo-user] Sync'ing and compiling pkgs for multiple PCs
Hi Stroller, my email was probably as complex as I was confused, but you helped a lot... Your email is very long, so I'm not sure if I've taken it all in, but what I'd suggest is a shared /usr/portage directory (easily done by NFS) and distcc. This creates a dependency on the host that contains the portage tree. It also remove some flexibility. For example, taking my laptop away from my 'portage pc' would make it impossible for me to modify my current installs while away. There are other consideration and the use of a sync'ed portage tree on each pc vs using nfs is a debate that I won't go into now and this part is not much of an importance in my problem... compilation is!... distcc is, IMO, a bit more elegant than (for instance) trying to manually emerge binary packages for machine A on PC B. You can tell it to share the work or just unload it to the most powerful machine. There may be concerns about using a binary package if USE flags are different between the two machines, but distcc ensures that the package is built using those defined in make.conf of the machine on which you're running emerge. Yes! I was actually trying distcc today for the first time and got it working from the perspective of my fastest computer, I got some trouble though (see below). What you mentioned about running the `emerge -uDN world` on each individual machines + sharing built packages is absolutely awesome. Best of all worlds if i could say! However, when using distcc, I first made a trial with a small package 'xmahjongg' and got a nice x4 speedup on the overall emerge. I wanted to try with a larger package, 'povray' and stumbled on a linker issue, the issue is described below and this is the only obstacle on my way now. As I fear doing a `emerge -e system emerge -e world` would never complete using distcc... Doing: `time emerge povray` without distcc yields a functionnal package, while when distcc was enabled, I would get lots of undefined references to some __pthreads functions. But I just tried and it seems to work fine, not reproducible, so I'll drop my distcc issue and go on with the -e recompilation. Unless you have some more tips on using distcc on such a large compile? Thanks again, Simon

If you need the new laptop running asap, the sub-optimal but fast way is to build all the modules you'll require for your new laptop on the old laptop then copy the disk. Since they tend to only add CPU features and not take them away as time goes on, its worth a try as it will be a lot faster. You can then worry about changing CFLAGs and rebuilding if you like, or just change the CFLAGs and let anything new get built with them. No big deal. If your system is 64 bit and you want to later run 64 bit OS you'll have to reinstall. For CFLAGs http://gentoo-wiki.com/Safe_Cflags, and you'll need to change CHOST if you're going 64 bit.

With the scanner connected and powered on I did an 'updatedb locate scanner' and it didn't come up with anything in /dev, I don't have a /dev/usb/ directory, and the output of 'ls /dev/usb*' is the same with the scanner on or off. Any idea where that file might be? Those two commands also don't mention it. Another way to get info is to power on the scanner and plug it in, then `modprobe -r` the appropriate kernel module(s) and then modprobe them while doing `tail -F /var/log/messages`. The kernel (udev) will create the appropriate /dev entries upon successful modprobe. In order for your user to be registered as a member of a group you have to log completely out (including your X session) and back in. You can verify your group memberships with the groups command. Judging from what you've said I bet it was merely an issue of adding your user to the scanner or usb group. My experience with usb scanners is they generally just work whereas when I start up my SCSI scanner I always have to remodprobe the kernel drivers and then `chown :scanner /dev/sg? chmod 0770 /dev/sg?`, but there's probably a better (right) way to do that. :-) Justin

It seems like at one point that there were still packages in KDE that needed version 3 installed. I have both version 3 and 4 on the system. If I remove the qt3 use flag, enable the qt4 use flag and do an emerge --newuse, can I then unmerge version 3? Do all of that first and then check for qt3 dependencies with equery depends x11-libs/qt-3* or qdepends x11-libs/qt-3* equery is part of app-portage/gentoolkit and qdepends comes from app-portage/portage-utils. The qaction commands are usually much faster than the equery action ones. Justin

[gentoo-user] Thinkpad T61 HDAPS and sound card support
I have a thinkpad T61 runs gentoo now, I did some google on the HDAPS support, found that the hdapsd on portage is out of date now, so I cannot do emerge --config xxx to patch my kernel. The kernel is gentoo-sources-2.6.25-r7. My question is, is there a kernel is patched for the hdaps in portage? Or there are some ways to get the hdapsd work with gentoo way? For the sound, the intel HD alsa support is already compiled as a module, but I cannot find /dev/audio and actually the device does not work at all, do I miss some options? -- BR, Zhou Rui
