[gentoo-user] Error booting new kernel

2008-10-31 Thread Marko Kocić
I have a quastion related to vanilla-sources kernel.

After upgrading vanilla-sources from 2.6.26 to 2.6.28_rc2 I am not
able to boot anymore. I tried playing with menuconfig couple of times,
but couldn't find what I have to change in order to make it work
again.

The error message while booting is like this:

Using IPI shortcut mode
BIOS EDD facility v 0.16 2004-Jul-25 1 devices found
VFS: Cannot open root device 307 on unknown-block(3,7)
Please append a correct root= boot option; here are the available
partitions:
Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-
block(3,7)


Note that in my lilo.conf I have root=/dev/hda7 line for all kernels.

Thanks for any suggestion,
Marko



[gentoo-user] Emerge --inject equivalent

2008-07-08 Thread Marko Kocić
Does anyone knows about emerge --inject equivalent? Inject was used to
tell (lie to) portage that some package is installed alhough it is
not.

What I was to trying to do is to avoid recompilation of the whole
glibc because new flag fas been added to CROSSCOMPILE_OPTIONS.
emerge -uDN world keeps me bugging that I should recompile glibc.

The same story applies to different packages. If new USE flag is added
which I don't use anyways, I still have to recompile the same version
of package because emerge bugs me to do it.

Does anyone knows how to avoid unnecessary recompilation in this case?

Or should I open new bug to change default behaviour of emerge -N flag
for new USE flags which are not used anyways?

Thanks,
Marko

Does that mean that I will be prompted to recompile when some flag

Thanks,
the problem is that USE flags are not changed, but CROSSCOMPILE_HEADER_OPTIONS
New option is added there which is not used anyways.

I'll try that as soon as I can.

 Edit /var/db/pkg/cat/pkg-version/USE. This file contains the USE flags
 the package was built with, editing it to match the changed flags fools
 portage into thinking a re-compilation is not available.

 Alternatives are don't use --newuse with emerge world unless you are also
 using --pretend, or let the merging begin, hit Ctrl-C when that package
 starts then run emerge --resume --skipfirst.

Re: [gentoo-user] Howto mask release candidates?

2008-05-16 Thread Marko Kocić
 Is it possible in packages.mask to mask only release
 candidates/alpha/beta versions, while leaving final releases unmasked?

 what is the aim of this?  To have a stable system?  In that case you
 should make sure ACCEPT_KEYWORDS in make.conf does NOT have a ~

 Then you may get release candidates and betas but only when they're
 proven to work, or work better.

I don't wand to mask all rc/alphas/betas for all packages, but only for some.

The aim is to be able to use eg vanilla-sources versioned with 2.25, 2.25.1,
2.25.2, 2.25.3, 2.26. 2.26.1 while skipping 2.26_rcZ, 2.25.rcx, 2.27_rcX.

 In my portage there are only rc for 26. So just add
 =sys-kernel/vanilla-sources-2.6.26 to your packages.keywords.

 I ment sys-kernel/vanilla-sources-2.6.26!!

Yes, but then I will not be notified by portage that new version (2.6.26 final)
is available. I will have to manually track versions.
And since all versions 2.6.26 are masked, 2.6.25.1 will be uninstalled during
emerge -u

[gentoo-user] Problem upgrading kernel from 2.6.25.1to 2.6.26_rc1

2008-05-14 Thread Marko Kocić
Hi all,

I'm using vanilla-sources-2.6.25.1 right now.
I tried to configure and build 2.6.26_rc1 like I did many times before.
 create symlink to linux-2.6.26-rc1 folder
 go to linux folder
 make menuconfig
 save
 make
 make modules_install install
Everythinh seems to build ok, with some MISMATCH_CONFIG warning, and
when I reboot to the new kernel, a bunch of modules that were there
before are not loaded anymore. Inspecting it it seems that some
modules are not even built.

Is it a known issue with 2.6.26-rc1 kernel? How could I painlessly
migrate configuration from old 2.6.25 kernel to 2.6.26 without need
for complete reconfiguration?
make menuconfig always keeped current config before, did it change recently?

Thanks,
Marko

  It didn't change that I know of, but one can never tell. I suppose step
  1 is to check what changed. So, either:

  run make oldconfig
  or
  run make menuconfig and rapidly flip through all the screens looking for
  entries that end with [NEW]

Did that, but I probably missed to reenable something ;) It was a long
time since
the last time I had to configure kernel from scratch, so it is hard to remember
everything.

  If that doesn't sort stuff out, then you will probably have to inspect
  the area where you have missing modules more closely and read the help
  pages. What are these missing modules? Often it's a case of a
  replacement has a different name, like the b43legacy for Broadcom
  wireless now has an entirely new b43 intended to replace b43legacy

It might be the case. I don't currently have access to my home laptop,
but there were lots of modules that are missing. Alsa and iptables failed to
start after reboot and I ended up in console screen which is small and
in the center of the screen.

Marko

  Sounds like you have a lot more going on that one or two modules not
  loading :-) You do have module support in that kernel right?

Yes. For some reason it was reset to N, so I had to set it again. Some
modules build and install ok (eg. agpgart)

  Perhaps the output of dmesg and the relevant bits of messages from the

Yes, I'll  have to digg more to fix this. I just hoped that there is

  Here's my advice:

  start over :-)

  Using a .24 config works to build .25 - I have done it, so I think
  something just went bellyup on yours.

It worked for me too. I had similar problem when upgrading from 25 to 25.1,
but it seems like it was enough to fast scan through menus in menuconfig,
change nothing, just save config, and rebuild.

 Windows is not releasing the lease correctly, so the CM ignores request from

 reboot to gentoo.

 This works in the UK YMMV elsewhere.

[gentoo-user] Net / dhcp (miss)behaviour

2008-01-18 Thread Marko Kocić
I'm running gentoo on my dual boot windows laptop.

I use dhcp to connect to the the internet through cable modem.
Sometimes (in the evenings) it just fails to automatically obtain IP
address from dhcp server (timeouts).
I tried different settings in /etc/conf.d/net file (timeout and
different dhcpc options) and switching between dhclient and dhcpd, but
with no luck.

When I reboot to windows it just works. I contacted my ISP, but they
said they don't give support for Linux.

Is there a way to configure dhcp/dhclient to behave exactly like DHCP
in Windows XP?

 I never used cable modem and don't know how it connects to the PC, so I
 might be saying something completely wrong here,

Regular network cable going directly from cable modem to laptop.

 but can't you sniff the
 traffic directly from the laptop by capturing packets on the interface
 connected to the cable modem?

I can do that when interface is up is up and running.
But it is /etc/init.d/net.eth0 that is failing because of dhcp error.

What should I use? Ethereal? What should I look for?

 Where is the dhcp server? On the cable provider's network, or on the
 modem itself?

On cable providers network.

 I have found that dhcp can do weird stuff sometimes and Windows client
 don't always follow the standard method. Then again, what else is new?

 My first diagnostic step would be to get another machine on the network
 and sniff dhcp traffic when using Windows and Gentoo to see what the
 difference is.

I can't do that, cause I don't have switch/hub, just a cable modem directly
conencted to laptop.

I was looking for some magic enable windows emulation mode for dhcp.

Re: [gentoo-user] Net / dhcp (miss)behaviour

2008-01-18 Thread Marko Kocić
 Actually, as long as the interface is up, you can sniff traffic even if
 it does not have an IP address. Emerge wireshark (somehow...), do (as
 root) an ip link set eth0 up (or ifconfig eth0 up) and run
 wireshark. Start capturing packets, run dhcpcd from the command line (or
 whatever DHCP client you use), and see what goes on the wire. You should
 see DHCP discovery/offer/request messages, or maybe not all of them if
 things are not working correctly. For each DHCP packet, look at the DHCP
 payload details from wireshark (you can save the capture for later
 viewing too).

 Then, start windows, install wireshark for windows, and do the same. To
 force a DHCP negotiation in windows, open a command prompt and issue
 an ipconfig /release followed by an ipconfig /renew (IIRC). Look at
 the traffic captured after the /renew command, and look for obvious or
 blatant differences between windows and linux in DHCP packets of the
 same kind.

Thanks for the info. I'll try that.

Also, I just found by googling that there is dhcp client called
net-misc/pump which
have --win-client-ident option. I'll try that too.

[gentoo-user] Summer laptop overheat

2007-07-24 Thread Marko Kocić

Hi,

during this summer when temperatures are high, I noticed that my
laptop often (almost always)  overheat when I try to emerge some
larger package (gcc, glibc, kernel, ...)

This started happening some time ago, but was bearable until now. Now
I can't compile almost anything, my laptop just switch off.

I tried lowering CPU frequency to avoid overheat, but with no effect.

Is there some magic option to enable in order to reduce heat?
How should I check that my fans are running properly under gentoo?

This doesn't happen in windoze, on the same machine (although I don't
do so heavy compiles there)

Re: [gentoo-user] sun-jdk dependencies questions

Thanks for the clarification.


The reason is as you say that dev-java/sun-jdk:1.6 is a binary package that
isn't ABI compatible with libstdc++.so.6 (from gcc-4.x). And as we don't have
the source we cannot fix that with revdep-rebuild.


But I'm already running sun-jdk on my machine that I manually
downloaded and installed from the sun site, although I don't have
libstdc++ installed.

Do you mean you are already running sun-jdk:1.6 without an ABI compatible
version of libstdc++ ? In that case I wouldn't be surprised if it


I'm running Sun jdk 1.6.0_01 as downloaded from http://java.sun.com .
I don't even know what ABI is, but I don't have libstdc++ installed,
only gcc-4.1.2. I did not experience any crash, although I use it a
lot.


occasionally crashes. If you meant 1.4 or 1.5 then they simply don't seem to
use the c++ standard library...

I don't know the difference between Sun and gentoo packaging. Maybe
Sun is statically linking that ABI stuff.

with udev for some time ago.
Is it safe to unmerge hotplug? Has it become obsolete lately?

I recently umnerget coldplug and removed it from runlevel boot, and
haven't found any problem so far. Was that cleaver.

If I remove hotplug will something break?

Thanks,
Marko

I just sync'd portage few minutes ago and it seems there are new
version of coreutils available, which compiles ok (so far).

Thanks

[gentoo-user] coreutils downgrade problem

2006-02-20 Thread Marko Kocić
I have this problem couple of times. emerge says that I should
downgrade coreutils:
citadela ~ # emerge -pvuD system
[ebuild UD] sys-apps/coreutils-5.93 [5.94] USE=nls -acl -build
-static 0 kB
[ebuild U ] sys-devel/make-3.80-r4 [3.80-r3] USE=nls -build -static 0 kB

But when I try emerge -uD system I got the following error:

zip2:

I'm using ~x86.
Does anyone have any idea what should I do to fix my box.
Similar problems appear with emerging of almost  any package.

Thanks,
Marko
