I noticed that the virtual/jdk-1.7 actually gives a choice of jdk's. One of them dev-java/oracle-jdk-bin does have a stable 1.7 version (indeed also a stable 1.8). I am not anxious to switch oracle-*. allan This is a typical problem with virtuals. A virtual can (by definition) be stable as soon as one of its providers is stable. Which one does not matter, and stabilization can be pretty much automatic and be done by any dev. So, after oracle-* went stable the virtual went stable too. Now portage is trying to upgrade it and can only resolve that by either keywording icedtea-bin or switching to oracle. Which solution it ends up with differs between portage versions, I suspect... This should be improved, obviously, but it's not a trivial issue. My personal advice (without knowing the packages in detail)- if you dont want to switch to oracle, just accept the keywording suggestion from portage and give the suggested ~arch icedtea-bin a try.

While all the guides seem to be written around grub2-mkconfig you can still use grub the old way and just create your own config file. Grub2 is more flexible in terms of supported filesystems and such - which is helpful if you're using lvm, mdadm, btrfs, and so on. However, I don't think it accepts the old config file syntax so there is some effort required to migrate. You'll of course want a rescue boot device (but I'd say that applies whether you're migrating or not). I started out with a grub1-like approach and ended up moving to the grub2 style. I just install my kernels with make install and then let grub2-mkconfig set up my config files. The only issue I found is that if you're playing with git kernels it doesn't always order the versioning right (a.b.c+ isn't a.b.c and things like this). However, you can add your own rules to get entries auto-created which can be helpful. -- Rich

[gentoo-user] A bash-based CPU governor/speed-control utility
Thanks to everybody who answered my questions; I've got it working. This mailing list seems to reject emails with executable attachments, so I had to convert it to a .txt file before attaching the script to this post. Instructions for making it runnable... 1) gunzip or zcat the attachment to extract cpugov.txt 2) rename it to cpugov 3) insert the line... #!/bin/bash ...as the first line at the top of the file 4) chmod 755 cpugov 5) move it to /usr/local/bin or other appropriate subdirectory The script understands 2 options... cpugov list cpugov set The list option can be run by an ordinary user. It lists available options. The set option needs to write to /sys pseudo-file space, and therefore requires root or su/sudo permissions. It lists available options, and waits for you to enter a number and hit ENTER to select that option. If the current governor is userspace, available speeds will be listed as well. If you don't see speeds listed, you need to first... cpugov set ...and select the number corresponding to userspace. Then run cpugov again. I don't see a major need for specific speed selection, but I included it for completeness. The governors should handle your needs as follows... * powersave - runs CPUs at slowest speeds for longest battery life * performance - runs CPUs at maximum speeds. Work gets done faster but the battery discharges faster, too. * conservative - this is the recommended governor. It gradually adjusts speeds to match workload For completeness, the remaining 2 governors are... * ondemand - similar to conservative, but reacts faster. * userspace - you're in charge. You get to pick-n-choose the speeds you want when you want them. -- Walter Dnes waltd...@waltdnes.org I don't run desktop environments; I run useful applications cpugov.txt.gz Description: Binary data

Re: [gentoo-user] cryptsetup wont use aes-xts:plain64
AES cipher algo (AES-NI) is the fastest if you have the necessary
hardware. Twofish cipher algo (x86_64, 3-way parallel) is a close
second, but will slow access down slightly. Serpent is also usably
fast.

If you don't want to have any abi_x86_32 dependencies being installed on your system you need to replace sys-boot/grub-0.97-r14 by sys-boot/grub-static-0.97-r12, because this package contains the grub binary with static linking. The binary of sys-boot/grub-static again is precompiled by the sys-boot/grub-0.97-r14 ebuild with USE=static. So sys-boot/grub-static doesn't need any 32 bit dependencies (packages with USE=abi_x86_32).

So any reason to do anything, or just let portage sort things out as the packages remove their dependencies on emul-linux? It's actually explained in the news you can read with `eselect news read`. The short version: You need to first uninstall all emul-linux-x86* packages manually by running: # emerge -C emul-linux-x86* Then you need to do a world update which will tell you which packages will need USE=abi_x86_32.

This works great on my desktop with 12 cores.

Re: [gentoo-user] cryptsetup wont use aes-xts:plain64

Is there a cipher/hash/keysize which alloows me a bit more write performance? I don't know if it helps you with the write performance, but you can also use aes-xts-plain64 instead of aes-xts-plain. # cryptsetup -c aes-xts-plain64 -h sha256 -y -s 256 luksFormat /dev/mapper/VolGroup01-media2

Not here, it doesn't.

If you don't want to have any abi_x86_32 dependencies being installed on
your system you need to replace sys-boot/grub-0.97-r14 [with]
sys-boot/grub-static-0.97-r12, because this package contains the grub
binary with static linking.
I haven't used grub-static here for ... oh, several years at least.

Re: [gentoo-user] apache and the -D parameter
On 04/20/2015 07:18 PM, Bill Kenworthy wrote: as expected, no difference :( strace doesnt show anything useful - its reading the config files including 70-mod_wsgi.conf but doesnt show anything else. BillK The only other thing I can think of would be to delete and re-type the -D line in /etc/conf.d/apache2 and the IfDefine line in the apache config. Maybe there's a non-printing space or something else evil in there. The unstable apache-2.4 lets you Define variables within the config files and not just on the command-line. If this is important, that might get you up and running at the expense of satisfying your curiosity. Some day we might replace all the -D stuff with Define anyway (https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=532710).

[gentoo-user] gcc-5.0 ?
Hello, I need access to the latest gcc compiler for some experimental work with some GPU enabled coding. [1,2] So using this latest gcc compiler just for compiling some fancy new cluster codes using RDMA, is liable (probably ?) to be a wee bit tricky. Now, assuming I find an overlay somewhere, how do I go about ensuring it is slotted and only used with specific syntax just for a few codes and nothing on my general portage tree? Also, I have not found a gcc-5.0 or gcc-5.1 in an overlay (yet), but I did find this gcc- by zorry[3]. It does not look to be gcc-5.x but I am as yet uncertain on that. Any discussion or suggestions how to best get access to gcc-5.x is most appreciated; as is methods to using it (control it) limited to just a few codes.
