Each one you get you will need to add to your package.keywords file.
This is what I would have to do;

[gentoo-user] screen tearing when moving windows...

[木叶]

Hi all,

I'm suffering screen tearing when moving windows around, watching
videos, and some other situations. I've tried almost all popular desktop
environments, including KDE, gnome(both traditional gnome 2 and new
gnome 3), and xfce, the issue always exists except in gnome 3. For the
main difference between these window managers, is gnome 3's window
manager (mutter) is based on opengl, I think there may be some problems
with my card's 2D acceleration. But'cat /proc/mtrr' shows everything is
well.
My graphical card is Nvidia Geforce GT240M, and I'm using the official
Nvidia drivers.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to troubleshoot this issue? Any
help much appreciated!

Re: [gentoo-user] how updating to gnome3 ?!

Hi Alan!
you were right. It is masked! I figured out that autounmask is not in

package that is masked

 So either your tree is outdated (you must re-sync) or gnome-3 is still
 masked. The second option is more likely and there are two
 possibilities for that:
 
 You run a stable system (gnome-3 is still unstable), or
 you masked it for some reason.
 
 Run this and examine what output you get:
 
 emerge -pv =gnome-3.2.1

Yes. Enable VSync and the issue goes away. I use KDE and the setting is 
in System Settings, Desktop Effects, Advanced tab (Use VSync checkbox.)

I installed lxqt on a recent Ubuntu server machine when I need a quick
minimal desktop.  I was pretty dissappointed. I had read that lxqt
uses openbox wm (which is what I use on all my Gentoo machines).  But it
seems that on Ubuntu lxqt doesn't use openbox, it offers XFCE wm
and one other I'd never heard of before (mutter?).

It also seems to refuse to run from the command line via xinit or
startx, so I had to install a "display manager", which I find to be
useless bloat.

Next time I won't bother with lxqt and the associated bloat, I'll just
install openbox and tint2.

  Years ago, I used to run mutt and newsreaders in separate text tty's.
Then the developers "in their infinite wisdom" switched from VGA text
mode drivers to framebuffer drivers. (mumble grumble mutter mutter)
It's basically impossible to come up with an 80-column text screen.
You'd need 24-pixel-wide text fonts to get 80 columns on a
1920-pixel-wide monitor.  I'd settle for 12-pixel-wide text fonts, and
doing a split-screen.

  Back then, my answer to "screen" was to push the system to 9 text
tty's.  tty10 and tty11 were reserved for X, and tty12 for system
messages.  Here's a fragment from my /etc/inittab

c1:12345:respawn:/sbin/agetty 38400 tty1 linux
c2:2345:respawn:/sbin/agetty 38400 tty2 linux
c3:2345:respawn:/sbin/agetty 38400 tty3 linux
c4:2345:respawn:/sbin/agetty 38400 tty4 linux
c5:2345:respawn:/sbin/agetty 38400 tty5 linux
c6:2345:respawn:/sbin/agetty 38400 tty6 linux
c7:2345:respawn:/sbin/agetty 38400 tty7 linux
c8:2345:respawn:/sbin/agetty 38400 tty8 linux
c9:2345:respawn:/sbin/agetty 38400 tty9 linux

  Mutt (mail in general) is one thing I have no problem with stopping
and starting.  However, newsgroups have been replaced by webboards
(bleagh).  I have over 20 profiles for my browser.  This allows me to
bring up a specific forum in a specific workspace.  I also have multiple
spreadsheets continuously open for daily updates, as a hobby.  Browsers
and spreadsheets don't restore.  Browsers are supposed to restore after
being killed, but they don't always restore to the exact same point in
the forum.

Re: [gentoo-user] how updating to gnome3 ?!

[Alan McKinnon]

Let's deal with your biggest mistake first. You are running a stable
system (you have ACCEPT_KEYWORDS=amd64 in make,conf) but you want to
install gnome-3.

Now that is highly unlikely to work for a very long time yet as gnome-3
is considered nowhere near stable enough yet to be unmasked. Portage is
going to want to unmask vast chunks of your system to meet the
long deep list of dependencies for gnome-3 and this will cause you
sever amounts of pain.

Trust the folks on this list, over the years we have learned that a
stable system (with maybe a few unmasked packages) is OK, an unstable
system is also mostly OK (you just update lots of things often) but it
doesn't break fantastically every other day.

A system that is half stable, half unstable DOES break fantastically
every other day. And this is what you are trying to do.

You have many options, only two are actually realistic:

1. Stay stable, do not use gnome-3
2. Switch to unstable, do a full emerge -e world, then emerge
gnome-3. It will go easy and probably JustWork out the box.

[Tamer Higazi]

Thank you very much Alan!
I keep the finger away of it. And continue running Gnome2. Not important
for me updating the wm to gnome3.

It's a developer machine. :-)

 Let's deal with your biggest mistake first. You are running a stable
 system (you have ACCEPT_KEYWORDS=amd64 in make,conf) but you want to

 Now that is highly unlikely to work for a very long time yet as gnome-3
 is considered nowhere near stable enough yet to be unmasked. Portage is
 going to want to unmask vast chunks of your system to meet the
 long deep list of dependencies for gnome-3 and this will cause you
 sever amounts of pain.
 
 Trust the folks on this list, over the years we have learned that a
 stable system (with maybe a few unmasked packages) is OK, an unstable
 system is also mostly OK (you just update lots of things often) but it
 doesn't break fantastically every other day.
 
 A system that is half stable, half unstable DOES break fantastically
 every other day. And this is what you are trying to do.
 
 You have many options, only two are actually realistic:
 
 1. Stay stable, do not use gnome-3
 2. Switch to unstable, do a full emerge -e world, then emerge
 gnome-3. It will go easy and probably JustWork out the box.

 Yes. Enable VSync and the issue goes away. I use KDE and the setting

 On my Seamonkey, it only does the Google search if I move down to the
 Google search 'fore' and click it/press enter on it. Otherwise it
 goes to DNS. (I do not have Internet Keywords enabled in seamonkey)




 I think what it is is this, I click on the location bar and my mouse
 moves down a little when I type something in.  I'm a old fart so I look
 down at my keyboard a lot when I type, especially when I am coming back
 from the mouse.  I think that when I hit return the mouse is just under
 the location bar which when I hit return makes it go to the Google
 search thing.

 Makes me want to learn source code and get rid of that and a couple
 other things too.  I don't like that right click options to much.

 Maybe this is one of those times when problem is in the chair?  ;-)

Perhaps :) I've definitely done that about a million times by
accident. What happens to me usually is I click in the location bar so
I can type a URL, then I nudge my mouse out of the way so I can see
what I'm typing. As I'm typing, the mouse drifts 1 pixel, causing the
Google search 'blah' bar to become highlighted. When I press enter
to go to my URL, it googles the URL instead, causing me to mutter
workplace-inappropriate things to myself. My cure for this: use
control-L instead of the mouse to put the focus on the location bar...
except for the 50% of the time when I forget to do that and use the
mouse instead.

I use the Google search from the location bar on purpose all the time,
though; it is my primary method of googling. I type something and
press downarrow-enter and off I go. I can't even remember the last
time I went to google.com directly.

 That is gnome-shell pulling in upower || upower-pm-utils and for some
 reason it chose the one you do not want.

 Using package.mask is valid (it's a documented tool and not only for
 ~arch - all it means is that you do not want the listed packages and
 there could be many reasons for that) but it does seem a bit heavy-handed.

 Normally, manually installing upower should be enough to satisfy the dep
 and keep upower-pm-utils off your machine, but bugs are possible I suppose.

 Is there any bugs on b.g.o. about this?
 Run emerge with -t and post the relevant section, let's see why the
 wrong package is being pulled in. Also the output of

 equery depends upower
 equery depends upower-pm-utils

Yes it is the same general issue.  But I moved from my goingstable
laptop to my fully stable desktop, hoping it would be clearer.
I did run the emerge world with -t on the desktop.  I am now temporarily

 That is gnome-shell pulling in upower || upower-pm-utils and for some
 reason it chose the one you do not want.

 Using package.mask is valid (it's a documented tool and not only for
 ~arch - all it means is that you do not want the listed packages and
 there could be many reasons for that) but it does seem a bit heavy-handed.

 Normally, manually installing upower should be enough to satisfy the dep
 and keep upower-pm-utils off your machine, but bugs are possible I suppose.

 Is there any bugs on b.g.o. about this?
 Run emerge with -t and post the relevant section, let's see why the
 wrong package is being pulled in. Also the output of

 equery depends upower
 equery depends upower-pm-utils
 
 Yes it is the same general issue.  But I moved from my goingstable
 laptop to my fully stable desktop, hoping it would be clearer.
 I did run the emerge world with -t on the desktop.  I am now temporarily
 removing the package.mask entry and running it again.  The output is

Re: [gentoo-user] [~amd64] Some possibly (?) helpful hints re the big gnome-3.8 update

[gottlieb]

I am a gnome-3 user, who wants to continue with gnome-3.  I understand
now that to move to 3.8 requires I move from openRC to systemd and am
trying to accomplish that now.  I have so far only done the easy first
steps.

0.  I always back up my user files and /etc daily

1.  I confirmed that my system still boots off my installation CD
(just in case).

2.  I added enough entries to /etc/portage/package.mask to prevent
systemd being required (list at the end if others are interested).

3.  Performed the kernel prerequisites from the wiki (most of which
were already enabled).

4.  My /run directory was already present and populated.

Now I hit my first question

The wiki says that upstream suggests that the /etc/mtab file should
be a simlink to /proc/self/mounts.  It then points out problems with
and without the symlink.

My current system has both files but with slightly different contents,
specifically the entries for my filesystems, root (includes /usr) and several
lvm2 lvs, say commit=0 0 2 in /etc/mtab but say data=ordered 0 0
in /proc/self/mounts

Do you advising leaving it alone or executing
   ln -sf /proc/self/mounts /etc/mtab

After that comes the big one

emerge systemd
USE=... systemd ...
emerge --change-use
/etc/init.d/udev restart

Can the system be rebooted at this point (I realize init will still not
use systemd) or must the entire conversion (including changing init) be
completed before the system is bootable?  I am hoping it is the former.

thanks in advance for any help.

allan

 The 3 june news asserts all systemd users are recommended to stay with

 However update world wants to uninstall upower and install
 upower-pm-utils.

 Adding sys-power/upower-pm-utils to /etc/package.mask, fixed the

 surprised that a stable system would need an entry in package.mask.

 Any advice would be appreciated,

 PS I realize that the news item concerned hibernate/suspend so is not
 relevant, but the same issue uninstall/install occurs on my laptop.
 Those systems have a less simple goingstable setup and are more
 important to me so I prefer to first change the fully stable desktop.

[gentoo-user] Can not update @world

[Mansour Al Akeel]

I haven't updated my portage tree for a while.
I tried to update recently but got some conflicts. So I removed some
packages manually.
This didnt' solve the issue. So I decided to remove all the masked
packages that I unmasked.
To do so, I moved package.mask and package.accept_keyword, and did a
--autounmask-write. And added:
gnome-base/gnome-2.32.1-r2:2.0

to package.mask to prevent gnome3 from being pulled.


Now,
emerge --update --deep --newuse world

Still gives me errors:
