[gentoo-user] [Possibly OT] rile-roller having problems with deletions after upgrade to 3* series kernel
Each night (at midnight) I make backups of files that changed the previous day, and on the first of the month I make full backups of important directories (/home, /etc, etc etc). Each morning I do maintenance on the partial backup from the day before. I've noticed that since I upgraded to the 3* series kernel (at this moment it's 3.2.12) I've had problems with file-roller - I tell it to delete a directory (something I consider nonessential like ~/.thumbnails) and I says "Reading archive..." without actually deleting anything. I've found that I can delete ten files at a time, which can be really inconvenient when there are hundreds of nonessential files I need to delete. I don't think it's tar - I can go into my terminal window and delete all the files I want with tar and it works perfectly; it just seems to be file-roller. Has anyone else experienced this?

The file isn't that difficult. Also, this is a laptop whose only working network connection is its wifi NIC. -- :wq

Whenever I have this problem I find that when I look at my Activity Manager it is still trying to copy a sent message to the sent folder on IMAP. That process just get stuck sometimes.

It happens with other users two (i had the exact same problem on two different installations, early after clean install.) and i also run it from terminal and there are no msg right before it freezes.

Occasionally I get this, but I have not narrowed any causes down yet. For example I have just tried it, but it worked perfectly. However, I get sometimes 100% CPU usage and it has to do something with the IMAP access of my mailboxes (I am using 2 at the moment if that makes any difference). Hope that helps, Ignas A. P.S. I am thinking more and more, that I should to switch to something more lightweight... :p Maybe mutt or luamail... but it will have to happen a bit later. :)

Hi, Ever since the last time Thunderbird was updated when I synced, the process does not die when I shut down Thunderbird. I have to kill it before I can start up Thunderbird again. Is anyone else experiencing this problem. Thought I would ask here before I complained to the Mozilla folks.

It could possibly be flash/gnash or something having a problem. I would also run it from an xterm so you can see if there are any useful messages shown when the problem occurs.

I did `perl-cleaner --reallyall' but the emerge process engendered by it failed again at the same perl module: perl-core/Module-Build-0.400.0 ---- ---=--- - Here is what seems to have fixed things up... I'm not sure if all of it is required, but what I finally did was unmask the hard mask on perl-5.14 Emerged that with -uD flags which caused the same troublesome perl-core/Module-Build-0.400.0 to be installed after the new perl was installed and it went by without a whimper. Then followed with perl-cleaner --all, followed by revdep-rebuild. (neither of those seemed to find much to do). Apparently the perl change was fully cleaned up during install so perl-cleaner had nothing to do. And finally `eix-sync' followed by `emerge -vuDp @world' which revealed that those troublesome perl modules: perl-core/Module-Build-0.400.0 and Parse::CPAN::Meta are now not coming up since they are installed. However I see a new gcc in the output so thinking I'll install that by itself and set the new one up as active before doing `emerge -vuD @world' I'll post this once I see if a full emerge -vuD @world works without failure. tic toc . tic toc OK, the full `emerge -vuD @world', followed by `revdep-rebuild' has gone down trouble free all fixed I guess.

Hello, the following happens in other occasions but i am sure just about this: every time i open facebook and enter anything into the search field and click any of the results epiphany freezes, then i can only force quit.

So ... Check with your news provider to see if they have alternative ports open, or run a portscan with nmap. Otherwise consider using a different news provider. Many commercial providers allows access on other ports and SSL encrypted connections on port 563. Also, if you have IPv6 connectivity, try finding a news host on IPv6. Sometimes a port is blocked on IPv4 but they forget to block it on IPv6. :)

Well, you could use a chroot on system A to build it against an older copy of the library. I can't find a stage3 with that range of glibc, though if you can still track down sources to piece together a toolchain, LFS 6.2 [1] is from right around that time frame (around '06-'07). If anyone has a 2007.1 range stage3 laying around, though, all the hard work's already done for setting up a perfect chroot as long as it plays well with a newer kernel (or if you can do the build in said chroot on system B), I've had issues with a too-new set of libraries on older kernels more than once, not sure I've tried the other direction.

Have you set that variable yet? Terry
