Vedant, notifications won't happen until after that date. We have been
doing the ranking all week and will submit it before the deadline.

That sets the umask for the shell that runs the profile file, not for
your GNOME session.

Do you have a separate filesystem for /home? If so, the simplest option
is to set umask in its mount options in fstab. This will affect all
users, except root, and it won't affect files you write outside of $HOME.

That sets the resolution for the GRUB menu. If you can see that but the
kernel boot messages don't display, you may find adding nomodeset to the
boot options helps. More info at

GRUB_GFXMODE=1024x768x32 was there before and it run perfectly find
with older kernel: linux-5.10.103-gentoo Just after upgrading to
kernel-6.1.19 it happened

I'm getting:
 cat /proc/cmdline
BOOT_IMAGE=/vmlinuz-6.1.19-gentoo 
root=PARTUUID=33fd3594-68f7-e143-842a-cdade6d25e34 ro

Have similar output like on my other systems.

Wold removing from grub :  GRUB_GFXMODE=1024x768x32
solve the problem.  I think it would go to default mode: 640x480

Ultimately what you want to do is build all of that other stuff once,
and then build ruby binding for each version of ruby. You can probably
make that happen by mucking around with the each_ruby_foo and
all_ruby_foo phases, but I think a separate ebuild would work too.
Assuming that the bindings link to the library, in both cases you face
the same problem: to convince the build system to link against a
different copy of the C library. With a single ebuild, you want the
ruby-specific builds to link against the one shared library you just
built; with a separate ebuild you'd want them all to link against the
system copy that was installed by the main ebuild.

One final option would be to figure out how the eclass is finding the
supported ruby versions, and copy it. Then you could loop through them
and use your hack with each one.




Re: [gentoo-user] Cgroup confusion

2023-04-25 Thread Hoël Bézier

Hi,


# This switch controls whether or not cgroups version 1 controllers are
# individually mounted under
# /sys/fs/cgroup in hybrid or legacy mode.
#rc_controller_cgroups="YES"

So, whether or not A or B. How do I translate that into English?
Gentoo has three cgroups mode: legacy, hybrid and unified. cgroups v1 are 
created in legacy and hybrid modes, cgroups v2 are created in hybrid and 
unified modes.


So the question here is, when cgroups v1 are created, i.e. in hybrid or legacy 
mode, do you want, yes or no, controllers to be individually mounted under 
/sys/fs/cgroup?


This parameter has no effect when you are in unified mode, because there 
are no cgroups v1 in this mode, so it makes sense to specify it applies only 
“in hybrid or legacy mode”.

[gentoo-user] Cgroup confusion

2023-04-25 Thread Peter Humphrey
Hello list,

BOINC is behaving strangely, and following a clue it gives me I look in /etc/
rc.conf and find this:

# This switch controls whether or not cgroups version 1 controllers are
# individually mounted under
# /sys/fs/cgroup in hybrid or legacy mode.
#rc_controller_cgroups="YES"

So, whether or not A or B. How do I translate that into English? Surely it 
must be either 'whether or not" or "whether A or B", no? And which of those 
does YES denote? Or perhaps "in hybrid or legacy mode" should just be omitted.

What setting is the kernel actually being told to use for screen
resolution? What is the output of cat /proc/cmdline.

This sounds like it could be something to do with kernel modesetting.
