[gentoo-user] asserts in glibc
There's currently an open bug in amaroK ( http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=100049 ) where it appears xine crashs when an assert fails in glibc. I figured that this would only happen when someone was foolish enough to install a glibc with debug enabled. However today I talked to a user who had the problem (using equery) it appears their use debug use flag was off for the running glibc. Does anyone know under what conditions the glibc assert()'s are enabled? Thanks, Ian -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

I'm sorry but as OT as this thread is (haven't read all of it) I have to get my 2 cents in here. Response inlined below... * On Sun May-08-2005 at 08:44:08 PM +, Calvin Spealman said: [...] I'm tired of everyone being so blatently rude in their defensive stances over simple suggestions of improvement. Clearly 'improvement' is subjective. Hence the differing opinions. For some reason, I've noticed these actions move prevalently in regards to email protocols and formats. The W3C wants to release a new version of HTML? No one complains (mostly). Someone wants to create a new e-mail standard, or expand an existing one? Off with their heads! I have to disagree here. If you read RFC 822[1] (1982) and then take a look at RFC 2822[2] (2001) then you'll see that there have been changes and updates to the e-mail standard. If you care to create a new one then go ahead and do it. If people like it then they will start to use it. It's as simple as that. Perhaps instead of trying to extend a standard that was created to send text around you should be trying to form a new standard altogether; I'm not really sure what you're trying to push for here. Apparently the ability to attach any file you wish to an e-mail is good enough for most people and this really is a non-issue. If you care to have fancy formatting or whatever else then attach a document in any format you like and if people want to read it they will. If someone's e-mail client displays certain attached files inline with the message than that's fine with me. In certain cases I think this even makes a lot of sense (e.g. images). I just don't see why this isn't good enough to get your fancy formatting. Outlook does this with HTML and we all know what a horrible mess that has created, but I think if you're really keen on this and adapt a mail client to automatically display certain types of attachments (without being a huge security risk!) then people may adopt it; but that is all speculation. To cut to the point all I'm trying to say is that e-mail has the capability to do what you want, you just need to figure out an appropriate file format for this purpose and then push to get clients to automatically display these files. If the majority like it then it will be used. Going by the way everyone reacts to these ideas, one would come to the conclusion that we should all still run nothing but command lines and pass our information around on FTP and Gopher servers. troll Transferring files using the File Transfer Protocol -- silly us! /troll Sorry for that, but it's hard to take that last sentence seriously seeing as it's a patently false conclusion.

In case of writing ISO images to CD-R(W) media, this is done with cdrecord, which accesses the hardware directly. In case of packet writing to CD-RW, which enables you to use the CD-RW media like a harddisk, you have to use another device (/dev/pktcdvd/name).

Re: [gentoo-user] Re: udev not getting usb key
I got the same problem here. There is a quick work-around this: When /dev/sda is available you can do cfdisk as root this will somehow display the proper partition table (fdisk wont) and everything is ready (/dev/sda1 is created). I suspect the problem is in chipset driver because the same usbstick works fine on same kernel/other chipset. Have just tested with other usbstik it was recognized directly. On 256Mb Kingmax the kernel fails to read the partition table, but with 128Mb Kingmax it works fine. On the other hand the 256 MB stik works fine on other hardvare ... this is strange I'm running 2.6.11 kernel on both machines On Sunday 08 May 2005 14:33, Antoine wrote: On 5/8/05, Antoine [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, out put from dmesg gives: ... usb 3-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 5 usb 3-2: device descriptor read/64, error -71 usb 3-2: device descriptor read/64, error -71 Could someone gives me an idea on what the prob might be?

If the mailers follow the proper multipart protocols and also make it easy to hide quoted emails, move to see the original ones, etc (to add incentives to use the protocol), then support for it can grow until everyone will have updated just over time. once you know someone's reader has support for it, because they send you emails using it, you can send to them without the old inline-quoted version. [snip] Calvin, you're whole problem appears to be that the email on the list should be modified to support your own desires. Posting in html because you prefer it. Top posting to responses rather than scrolling to the bottom of the quoted text (thus actually viewing the quoted text and snipping the unnecessary parts). You're looking at years worth of standards that have been built up and saying after all of that time they need to be changed. Fine - if you feel so strongly about it post an RFC and follow the normal process for having standards changed. Your effort to post on this list will not convince anyone nor would it make any substantial change. Simply put, the list just works. And it works because we have all agreed on how we're going to make it work. If you want to be part of the process and want to live under the established standard that we're all happy with, fine and welcome. But if all you want to do is rant over how we're not doing things the way you think they should be done, then maybe the email list is not for you.

When I type cdplay -c it starts playing, but I cannot hear any sound. When I type cdplay -I it states about the track it is playing at this moment. I have read the README file corresponding to the program cdplay, but it is a very short file and it only states the way to use the program. Is there anybody who could help me with this issue?

[gentoo-user] lm_sensor stop freeze
Hi, I can not halt my PC, 'cause when lm_sensors stop, the system freezes. The problem, how I see, that rmmod i2c_viapro can not succeed, cause of Device or resource busy. What can occupy the module in the late state of shutdown? My /etc/conf.d/lm_sensors is the following (generated by sensors-detect): # List the modules that are to be loaded for your system # # Generated by sensors-detect on Sat Feb 12 12:13:44 2005 #These are compiled into the kernel #NOLOADMODULES=YES MODULE_0=i2c-viapro MODULE_1=i2c-isa MODULE_2=eeprom MODULE_3=w83627hf It is an 1800+ Athlon XP with a 2.6.11-r6 gentoo-sources.

When you emerge a package, the package is added to your world file, but any dependencies that are emerged are not. So the world file contains only those packages that you explicitly want, not their dependencies. Whenever I re-emerge anything I always use --oneshot, on the basis that if it belongs in world, it is already there and if it doesn't, I don't want to spoil things by adding it now. shadow is a clear example of this, as it is a package you would never install manually (in fact it is part of system). -- Neil Bothwick Groucho Borg: That's the silliest thing I ever assimilated... pgpxyNwHCWADn.pgp Description: PGP signature

Agreement. equery size somepackage is much, much slower than: pkg-size somepackage I don't know if equery can be significantly sped up in the future, but the speed difference is a significant problem for me. With 550 MHz, pkg-size (a relatively simple shell script) was almost instantaneous, while equery size (a python program that directly uses the portage API) took several seconds. BTW, this was after one run of pkg-size to get all of the files cached in RAM, just for fairness. I love Python dearly, but it's annoyingly slow for some things.
