But I remember that also I had weird problems when I was upgrading from xorg-6.9 to xorg-7.0, which occurs because of suddenly some files of the partial xorg-packages were missing even though the package was emerged. Re-emerging of the corresponding packages was the solution. If you van't vfigure out which packages are affected it would be the best to run `emerge -e xorg-x11` Regards Sebastian Noack -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

[gentoo-user] Mount and write ntfs (natively)
I'm seeing stuff on line that indicates it is now possible to write to ntfs formated disk from linux (at least semi-reliably). I'd like to delete a few directories and files that the windows xp OS sees as `system files' and will not allow them to be deleted. They are duplicates of other system files but with differnt extension. In this case *.windows. They are the result of doing a reinstall without reformating the drive. I'm pretty sure no harm will result by deleting them and it will make things a little less of PITA when running windows for video related work. It's not worth going to extreme lengths to do this but if there is a `knoppix' sort of distro out there with this ability, or I can do it from my gentoo install or even a live gentoo disk, with out great painfull striving, I'd like to try it. Can anyone guide me on this? -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

If you installed gnome, they both will get pulled in as they're an official part of gnome as distributed by upstream.

IMO, even on home systems it makes a lot of sense to use multiple file systems. What's about fragmentation of data, when using LVM ? It doesn't have anything to do with LVM. You're mentioning a "problem" of LVM: With LVM, the Logical Volumes, and thus the filesystems on top of those LVs can be fragmented (and very often will be). This happens, when a LV will be resized. Reason: Suppose two LVs are created. Those 2 LVs are adjacent. Then the 1st LV (at the beginning of the VG) is to be extended (made bigger). This will cause the first part of the 1st LV to be in front of the 2nd LV and the 2nd part of the 1st LV will be after the 2nd LV. Alexander Skwar -- Never commit yourself!

Re: [gentoo-user] XEN on Gentoo, enough stable for production use ?
I have some problems with NFS on a domU. Having mounted my home partition on Dom0 from an nfs server on a domU I invoke an X-Session and get my e-mail from my server from another DomU with thunderbird. I get some 1000 mails a day. Sometimes suddenly all hangs and /var/log/messages tell me "NFS server cannot be contacted". I can ping to the outside but I cannot ping each of my DomU's. My second xenified machine doesn't crash and runs several days now. but has neither an nfs server nor an X-server installed. I filed a bug today and do not mount my home partition from the nfs server anymore although every 2nd day a script connects to all my domains over ssh and does an emerge -update -deep world [+metadata] after --sync on the portage proxy over nfs, which is apparently the same nfs server my home partion came from. I will investigate that further and report if I still have problems. Greetings, Robert -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

If you use iso9660, you have to create an image which is burnt to the disc unmounted. However, if you use UDF on RW media (CD or DVD), you create a device mapping via pktcdvd.ko and pktsetup and mount the disc just like anything else. Bye...
