[gentoo-user] Using the x11 overlay
Hi, I had manually built (via my own local overlay) more recent versions of large chunks of X to get around some slugish performance on my Intel based setup. However I noticed by xf86-video-intel driver got downgraded today due to an updated package.mask with the message: R?mi Cardona r...@gentoo.org (29 Apr 2009) # packages currently in the x11 overlay which will soon be moved to portage # see bug #260582 for xorg-server 1.6.1 issues # see bug #174434 for xcb-related issues (not all are blocker) Which is great but what do I do in the meantime? I thought I may as well try the x11 overlay so added it to layman but obviously the package mask is still in effect. I assume the manually editing /usr/portage/profile/package.mask will cause problems when the package.mask is updated. I can see the overlay has it's own profile stuff that prevents dev builds (9) being built accidentally but nothing that overides the profile mask settings. Basically I'm a little lost on how to run recent X11 (myself or via the x11 overlay) the correct way until the packages finally make it into the portage tree. -- Alex, homepage: http://www.bennee.com/~alex/ CV: http://www.bennee.com/~alex/cv.php

[gentoo-user] Udev Permissions
I've been having trouble getting udev to create stuff with the right
permissions. The latest is with my phone which has a USB Mass Storrage
Interface. I've added this line to my 10-local.rules:
# My Phone
BUS=usb, SYSFS{interface}=Sony Erics Memory Stick,
KERNEL=sd?1,NAME=%k, SYMLINK=phonemem, GROUP=users, MODE=0660
Which sort of works. It creates the /dev/phonemem symlink to /dev/sdc1
when I plug my phone in. However instead of giving it the group
permissions I suggest it still selects disk:
malory rules.d # ls -l /dev/phonemem
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Jan 9 01:00 /dev/phonemem - sdc1
malory rules.d # ls -l /dev/sdc1
brw-rw 1 root disk 8, 33 Jan 9 01:00 /dev/sdc1
malory rules.d # ls -l /dev/sdc
brw-rw 1 root disk 8, 32 Jan 9 01:00 /dev/sdc
I was under the impression that configuring things in 10-local should
overide any of the following general stuff in the main body of rules.
Have I come across a bug or have I just not understood the subtly of
creating the rule?

I thought the best thing to do would be re-emerge evolution with debugging enabled: CFLAGS=-g3 -O0 USE=debug emerge -v evolution However this doesn't seem to be having the desired effect.

[gentoo-user] ldconfig breaks my system
Hi, Applogies for the cross-post. I'm unsure if this is and amd64 specific problem or a more general b0rkage. I've posted about my failing glibc emerges before: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.gentoo.user/114627 I think I've narrowed it down to ldconfig running during the emerge. In fact at the moment any time I run ldconfig it breaks the system so that I cannot spawn any new shells (they segfault straight away). I can restore my system by untaring a rescue glibc binary. Can anyone give me any hints on how to diagnose the problem with ldconfig and why things stop working when its done? I'm currently building a parallel world on a second partition (in a chrooted environment) to see if there are any differences between the two setups (i.e a subtle breakage occured and was never picked up). -- Alex, homepage: http://www.bennee.com/~alex/ It destroys one's nerves to be amiable every day to the same human being. -- Benjamin Disraeli -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
[gentoo-user] udev Strangeness
Hi,
I've managed to get my usbdrive to appear in its own fixed /dev entry
but I cannot get the same to happen for my camera. It seems the udev
rule seems to get ignored. Any idea why?
# My pendrive
BUS=usb, SYSFS{product}=USB DISK Pro, KERNEL=sd?1, NAME=%k,
SYMLINK=usbdrive
# My Camera
#
# Not working for some reason
BUS=usb,SYSFS{vendor}=OLYMPUS , KERNEL=sd?1, NAME=%k,
SYMLINK=olympus
The only difference I can see is udev ignores the rule for the camera
despite the udev info dump indicating the SYSFS{vendor} key should
match.
Log of USB stick vs Camera follows:

Auden Well, I just checked my .nautilus directory, and for that matter, I actually have nothing in there, its empty. Umm, acording to the strace the file is in your home directory, not in any sub directories (/home/ognen/.recently-used). strace shows it being opened and assigned a file handle so it must be there. Did you do ls -a in your home directory to check? Normally files starting with . are suppressed in your ls listing. The only folder i have is one called metafiles. So I tried creating the .recently-used file, but nautilus still fails. Anyone have any more help to offer?

Would you please provide more details about the actual error? One good way to do that is to launch nautilus from a terminal with the following command IIRC: nautilus --no-desktop --file-browser and take a look at the ouput when it crashes. here is the error output from the command you specified: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ognen $ nautilus --no-desktop --file-browser ** (nautilus:13834): WARNING **: URI NOT LOADED ** (nautilus:13834): WARNING **: Error in parse: Error on line 1851 char 14: Odd character 'T', expected a '' character to end the start tag of element 'URIion ' ** (nautilus:13834): WARNING **: Error on line 1851 char 14: Odd character 'T', expected a '' character to end the start tag of element 'URIion' ** (eog:13859): WARNING **: Failed to lock: Resource temporarily unavailable ** (eog:13859): WARNING **: URI NOT LOADED ** (eog:13859): WARNING **: Error in parse: Error on line 1851 char 14: Odd char acter 'T', expected a '' character to end the start tag of element 'URIion' ** (eog:13859): WARNING **: Error on line 1851 char 14: Odd character 'T', expec ted a '' character to end the start tag of element 'URIion' ** (eog:13859): WARNING **: URI NOT LOADED ** (eog:13859): WARNING **: Error in parse: Error on line 1851 char 14: Odd char acter 'T', expected a '' character to end the start tag of element 'URIion' ** (eog:13859): WARNING **: Error on line 1851 char 14: Odd character 'T', expec ted a '' character to end the start tag of element 'URIion' Any help appreciated.

[gentoo-user] Evolution Data Server keeps reverting
Hi, I had a problem starting evolution: 14:11 [EMAIL PROTECTED] [alex] evolution-2.2 evolution-2.2: error while loading shared libraries: libecal-1.2.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory When I checked I found that libecalc belonged to evolution-data-server. A quick re-emerge later updates it to the latest version and everythig is good. However I check for updates and find emerge would revert it back to 1.0.4 if it got the chance (which explains why evolution broke): 14:21 [EMAIL PROTECTED] emerge -p -v --deep --update world These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating world dependencies ...done! [ebuild UD] gnome-extra/evolution-data-server-1.0.4 [1.2.1] -debug -doc -ldap 0 kB Both versions are ~amd64 so I don't think that is the reason.

Any idea what is causing emerge to think it wants to revert to a broken package? There could be a couple of reasons reasons: 1) you're running a amd64 system (~amd64 is not set in /etc/make.conf), and you've installed evolution-data-server with ACCEPT_KEYWORDS instead of with an entry in /etc/portage/package.keywords; 2) something else is installed that depends on the earlier version of evo-data-server and must downgrade evo-data-server to the version it can use. Both evolution and the data server are set ~amd64 in package.keywords For 2) instead of emerge -upDv, try emerge -upDtv to get a tree view of what is trying to downgrade evo-data-server. Perhaps that program needs to be updated to an unstable version that will accept the higher version of evo-data-server. 00:56 [EMAIL PROTECTED] [portage] emerge -upDtv world These are the packages that I would merge, in reverse order: Calculating world dependencies ...done!
