[gentoo-user] Gnome 3: GL_MAX_TEXTURE_SIZE is too small.
Dear all, I'd really like to switch to or at least test Gnome 3, but not the fallback version. But that's everything I get. Running /usr/libexec/gnome-session-check-accelerated-helper gives me the clue: gnome-session-is-accelerated: GL_MAX_TEXTURE_SIZE is too small. Searching for it in the internet is not very helpful, just some Spanish Debian mailing list entries. The Gentoo Gnome upgrade guide is not helpful as well and I did everything according to this guide, i.e. (1) I'm using open source xserver driver x11-drivers/xf86-video-intel with VIDEO_CARDS=intel and mesa with use of video_cards_intel. (2) Mesa is built with gallium and it is enables using eselect. (3) direct rendering is enabled: # glxinfo | grep rendering direct rendering: Yes You can find my emerge --info here: http://paste.pocoo.org/show/514796/ BTW, VGA controller is according to lspci just VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02) and the processor is Intel(R) Core(TM) i3. My question is, whether it is possible to increase this GL_MAX_TEXTURE_SIZE or not and if so, how. Thank you very much in advance for your help. Kind regards, der Max

Hi Leonardo, i tried it of course without pulse audio in advance, but e.g. totem and vlc were using the wrong standard device and emerging world with pulseaudio use flag makes totem and vlc use the right device ... my only problems are chromium and ff ... and probably some other apps, that I didn't test so far.

Re: [gentoo-user] How to build a time machine on Gentoo
Hi Am 16.08.2010 01:11, schrieb Nganon: Hello all, My first post on the list. I thought I would start with something that I started to think of as 'essential' after losing 90GB of data. Now I have two main questions in mind: what to and how to back up on gentoo most efficiently. 1. Apart from users' home directories and the followings, what should be backed up on a gentoo machine? /etc/portage/ /root /var/lib/portage ...? You should backup all in / except /tmp/* /sys/* /proc/* /lost+found/* /dev/* I have no solution how to bzip or gzip your backups or how to make a dvd backup, but I use app-backup/rsnapshot which uses rsync but implements an intelligent rotating system that is done daily, weekly, monthly, yearly according to your config. Of course you should store the backup on another physical hdd. By the way, since a new hdd of one TB is pretty cheap, think about running your gentoo in a software RAID. Guides: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/gentoo-x86+raid+lvm2-quickinstall.xml http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/Software_RAID_Install Kind regards, der Max 2. Erm..okay, I am gonna say, what magic I want and then ask your way. I first started making gzipped tar balls as follows: tar czpf /media/backups/userA-`date +%Y.%m.%d`.tgz -X userA-excludelist /etc But these can get huge especially for home dirs. I also want safe dvd copies. Though I can find enough space on the external drives, I don't trust them any more. See above..sigh..(No I recovered about one third of it with testdisk/photorec which names them as file01 file2.. and half them are zero sized.. which quite justifies my agony) Here is what I wanna do. I want to have only one big backup for, say, userA-2010.08.07.tgz and other small backup tars containing only the files/folders that were modified since last update, 2010.08.07, as userA-diff-2010.08.14.tgz, userA-diff-2010.08.21.tgz, userA-diff-2010.08.28.tgz etc. Now if I want to take the userA back to the future, 2010.08.21, I want to do it by first extracting the huge tar userA-2010.08.07.tgz and then the tiny backup userA-diff-2010-08-21.tgz. But the thing is I don't know how to do this. I am hoping maybe you can tell me how to of it as well as a better way of doing backups. By the way, since I want dvd backups as well, and I want to use +rw dvds so I can overwrite old backup after a while, what is best way of ensuring the integrity and safety of them. Is it a good idea to use truecrypt containers? Or nothing tops signing and encrypting with gpg? Thanks for any comment in advance.

I'm dreading that day too. I sort of like my old grub. I started on lilo and grub has seriously grown on me. I'll switch to the new grub tho. I have NO plans to go back to lilo. None whatsoever ! ! IIUC the change will be forced by mobo manufacturers when they adopt the newer partition tables and boot/BIOS methods . They have catchy acronyms that I can't remember, naturally, but we've all seen them discussed in this group from time to time. Don't buy new mobos and you can stick to old grub. Is there a GRUB to GRUB2 migration guide somewhere in the Gentoo Documentation?

Hi Stroller, there is nothing complicated, the only thing you should take care of is, that you run grub-mkconfig to get an initial grub.cfg and grub-install and you should in case of system failure know, how to boot with a livecd, chroot your environment and switch back to your old grub/config.

[gentoo-user] publishing ebuilds via bugzilla - bug #279438
Hi all, recently, I have written an ebuild for the program sci-chemistry/gabedit and published it at http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=279438 I am a chemist, so please excuse the following questions. ;) What will now happen with the published ebuild? Can I somehow help getting it to portage? Is the bugreport configured correctly or did I make a mistake, due to the fact that I am a noob in respect of writing ebuilds? I read many docs about publishing and writing ebuilds, I checked the ebuild using repoman, and really tried to do everything correctly. While checking the ebuild with repoman and reading the docs, I realized that I have to create a ChangeLog and a metadata.xml. Do I have to post them and the Manifest somewhere, too? Thank you very much in advance for your help. kind regards, der Max -- Maximilian Bräutigam max-br...@gmx.de http://www.jcf.uni-jena.de/ signature.asc Description: Dies ist ein digital signierter Nachrichtenteil

[gentoo-user] * Boot (initramfs) .. does not continue

Yes, I mean these options as well, but in recent kernels there's one more flag in Multi-dev section that's missing in the guide: Autodetect RAID arrays during kernel boot. Obviously, it should be set if you want to boot from mdraid.

Hi Mike and all other gentoos ;) all of your mentioned options are enabled (since genkernel and me did it). i copied all data to another partition /dev/sdb9 and disabled initrd. by the way, i think that initrd was running, because all the scans after executing the initrd ran without problems. despite, i disabled it and got a kernel panic, like: [md] scanned 0 and added 0 ... VFS: cannot open root device sdb9 or unknown block(0,0) please append correct root= ...

Re: [gentoo-user] Upgrading GCC (just to be sure)...
Hi all, it was said before: You don't need to follow this guide. Just emerge and you'll be fine. I would expect, that this is not the whole purpose. For example if I use eix gcc, I get two installed versions: 4.1.2 and 4.3.2-r3 gcc -v returns gcc-Version 4.1.2 (Gentoo 4.1.2 p1.1) gcc-config -c returns x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-4.1.2 So, obviously I am not using the new GCC compiler and being honest, I made half a year ago the mistake to deinstall gcc without upgrading. I configured a hole new system, because nothing worked anymore. Due to the mentioned problems my question is, do I have to configure # gcc-config x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-4.3.2 ... or ... # gcc-config x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-4.3.2-r3 kind regards, der Max -- Maximilian Bräutigam max-br...@gmx.de www.chemie.uni-jena.de/jcf

I'm trying to upgrade to the newer kernel, namely

out what drivers are compatible with what kernels and my old card?
Currently, I am using nvidia-drivers-173.14.09 with
gentoo-sources-2.6.23-gentoo-r8 which are quite old. From my google
search it seems that is the last version that works with the old video card.
The drivers I am currently using works fine for me with my old kernel.
It just doesn't build against the newer kernel or it fails to let the

Re: [gentoo-user] How to make a backup of my gentoo installation
Hi Damian, by the way rsnapshot is a more sophisticated tool to back up your root file system. it is based on rsync, but the bright idea behind is that it creates a history (hourly, daily, weekly, monthly) with copying the hole system only one time. Maybe this is what you preferably want. Kind regards, der Max damian schrieb: ... using rsync. Hello, Finally I got a (less than perfect but) functional gentoo installation and I would like to backup my root directory to an external hard-drive.
