I was running the unstable branch of portage primarily for about two years (mostly from user error when I first started), [snip] My question is, when downgrading (upgrading?) from unstable to stable, especially with packages that aren't explicitly in the world file, is this the behavior one should expect, or are these sorts of things worth bug reports? If revdep-rebuild was finding and solving all the problems, I'd say no bug. But when portage can't figure out what the problem is, and it only involved rebuilding installed dependencies in the right order, it makes portage not feel very sleek. [snip] Input welcome. ~daid What specific steps did you take to downgrade? I remember doing a successful downgrade about 2 years ago. I pretty much just ran emerge -e world, then etc-update, reboot, and don't remember having too many problems if any. Hi, I did the same error once and I had been told that it can be unpleasing to downgrade a large amount of programs. So back then I followed another approach. I put every single packed which was on ~x86 in my keywords file. Than I changed my make.conf back to stable. This way my box was slowly coming back to stable without the need to downgrade any program. I took maybe around one year until I was able to remove the last line in the keywords file but I still think this is the best way to deal with a case like that. So answer to your question: I say it is expected behavior to run in trouble when downgrading a large amount of programs. I wouldn't consider this to be a bug. kh

I use genlop -f when the current log file is in a different location (when I'm emerging in a chroot and want to check progress from the parent OS) and it works fine.

I tried this and it works: r...@smoker / # genlop -f /var/log/emerge.log -f /var/log/emerge.log.old1 -c using logfile /var/log/emerge.log using logfile /var/log/emerge.log.old1 Currently merging 1 out of 1 * kde-base/kpat-3.5.10 current merge time: 18 seconds.

[gentoo-user] python-2.6.2 site-packages path problem
Hi, with Python 2.6.2 I have (even re-)installed dev-python/pygtk. And indeed, there is a directory /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/gtk-2.0 But, still, import gtk fails. Looking closer, there is NO pygtk.pth-2.0 pygtk.py-2.0 file in /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages as it is on a working python-2.6.1 installation. What might cause that problem?

Which kernel du you use?
It seems to be 2.6.29-r1 according to SYSOUT content in the portage
output...
Yeah that why I am asking, I had an issue with a kernel module package which
found the kernel source
from the new kernel but has a SYSOUT from the old and wanted to build against
that. But sources were
already unmerged.

[gentoo-user] Wrong keyboard map in Fluxbox
Hi all, I have a fresh installation of gentoo with fluxbox. I added exec startfluxbox to my ~/.xinitrc and set the DISPLAYMANAGER variable in /etcconf.d/xdm to use slim. When I start my machine now, when slim starts a wrong keymap is set. This is also the case in fluxbox after login. If I stop X and restart it using startx, the key mapping is correct. Any ideas on how slim interferes with the keymap and how to solve that? Thanks a lot for your help! -- Best regards, Marco

[gentoo-user] What use flags/build settings should I use to get audio CDs to play in totem?
DISCLAIMER
I have spent the past 3 hours reading mail archives on gentoo-user
about, erm, certain sensitive people and topics and their feelings
about cd software. In fact I am *still* reading. I realize, though,
that it would probably be much faster to parallelize my information
gathering by directly asking the group.
Hi Gentoo-user!
I just recently discovered some of my old video game CDs (FYI: Might
and Magic 6-8) that have mixed data and audio tracks. I am a GNOME
user. Unfortunately, as I put the CD on, I got GNOME errors saying
unable to mount audio CD. hmm-hmm, sounds trivial enough.
I do a grep on use.desc and use.local.desc for cd stuff and I see cdda
as a use flag. Google calls it CD Digital Audio, so my brain connects
says sounds like the guy. Hastily I add it to my make.conf and
emerge -uDNtav world, see cdda pop up in some places, and press enter.
Later after dinnertime I notice the compiling's done, so I pop in the
game CD to see if audio CD is alright.
Joy! GNOME shows two icons on the desktop when I put the CD in. One
obviously shows the data track, labeled MM7_Disk2 or something
similar. The other says audio CD, which, when double clicked, shows
me a cdda://sr0/ URL opened in Nautilus, with a bunch of files from
Track 2.wav to Track 20.wav.
Now, here's the issue: I can drag the files from the window to another
folder and they get, intuitively, ripped from the CD as wav files
which play. But when I try to play them in totem, I get nothing.
Specifically, totem says:
---
totem cdda://sr0/
** Message: Error: A Audio CD source plugin is required to play this
stream, but not installed.
gstplaybasebin.c(1673): gen_source_element (): /GstPlayBin:play:
No URI handler for cdda
** Message: Missing plugin: gstreamer|0.10|totem|Audio CD
source|urisource-cdda (Audio CD source)
** Message: Automatic missing codec installation not supported (helper
script missing)
** Message: Error: A Audio CD source plugin is required to play this
stream, but not installed.
---
Popup:
The playback of this movie requires a Audio CD source plugin which is
not installed
---
Also, the Movie-Play Disc 'Audio Disc'
is grayed out.
My rhythmbox also now sees my audio CD's tracks 2 and above (which
makes sense), but plays painful static when I double click on the
tracks.
vlc gives me the same static on tracks 2 and above.
Clearly, I'm only getting somewhere half-right here. I want to be able
to play CD audio from mixed audio/data disks and I can get both data
and audio to appear. I can also rip the audio from the disks
themselves, which works fine. So all that seems to be missing is
getting my desktop apps to play the CD from the disks, and I am just
suspecting (as reported by my apps) that one of my plugins is missing
or wrong.

It would seem to me that cdparanoia should be the one doing the job of
reading audio CDs for my gstreamer-based apps, and there seems to be a
gst-plugin for it, which is installed. But apparently whatever they're
doing is not turning out right, and whatever nautilus is doing when
copying tracks seems to be turning out okay.

Hello, You might have multiple issues, depending on what (if any) other new hardware you are using and have not previously been successful using with HDMI.

That is, if you are outputting HDMI based audio and video from a computer and trying to make it all happy with a 1080p TV/monitor/audio type of setup Somehow find a way to test each component and make sure it's working. You may need to fiddle with the setting of the HDMI receiving device, or contact the manufacture and find out if the device employs HDCP, it can be turned off, or any other ideas the manufacture may have.

[gentoo-user] jre memory heap size issue
I have set -Xmx256m using the Java control panel GUI, and; sphinx jre # pgrep -lf java 8949 /opt/sun-jdk-1.6.0.13/jre/bin/java -Xmx256m -Xbootclasspath/a:/opt/sun-jdk-1.6.0.13/jre/lib/javaws.jar:/opt/sun-jdk-1.6.0.13/jre/lib/deploy.jar:/opt/sun-jdk-1.6.0.13/jre/lib/plugin.jar -classpath /opt/sun-jdk-1.6.0.13/jre/lib/deploy.jar -Djnlpx.vmargs=-Xmx256m -Djnlpx.jvm=/opt/sun-jdk-1.6.0.13/jre/bin/java -Djnlpx.splashport=42982 -Djnlpx.home=/opt/sun-jdk-1.6.0.13/jre/bin -Djnlpx.remove=false -Djnlpx.offline=false -Djnlpx.relaunch=true -Djnlpx.heapsize=67108864,268435456 -Djava.security.policy=file:/opt/sun-jdk-1.6.0.13/jre/lib/security/javaws.policy -DtrustProxy=true -Xverify:remote com.sun.javaws.Main file:///tmp/idm.jnlp sphinx jre # And i have restarted firefox, but when i try to run the app it still complains about the memory size. the -Xmx256m tweak recommended by the app vendor works in windows, and IIRC it also worked on my old x86 machine. The current machine is a newly built amd64. Any ideas on what's wrong?

Also, according to http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/documentation/plugins.html there is a cd-audio plugin which is part of gst-plugins-bad which might be an even better choice :)

Since I'm curious, how did that get there? Two emails merge somewhere or something. Dale :-) :-)
