Jan Jitse OMG! Where is my mind? Of course I had to test it with the file utility: file /usr/bin/Xorg /usr/bin/Xorg: setuid ELF 64-bit LSB executable, AMD x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), for GNU/Linux 2.6.9, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), stripped It's not a problem here also. I have no troubles with X but I wanted to try compiz with nVidia. Everything started when I accidentally found this site: http://wiki.gentoo-xeffects.org/Main_Page;. Following the advices I tried to stop DGA and found that it doesn't work for me and then I sent my question here. I want to be sure I'm not doing something wrong before submitting a bug report. So, is there anyone (besides both of us) in the same situation? -- Best regards, Daniel -- gentoo-amd64@gentoo.org mailing list
Re: [gentoo-amd64] fsck seems to screw up my harddisk
So, here I am again, now without the samsung drive, but this time (same system), with a software RAID-1, on 2 Western Digital Caviar Disks, working with ext2 on the boot-, and reiserfs on the rootpartition. Anyway, every time the system shuts down, the last things my pc tells me are: * Unmounting filesystems ...[ ok ] * Shutting down RAID devices (mdadm) ... md: md1 stopped. md: unbindsdb1 md: export_rdev(sdb1) md: unbindsda1 md: export_rdev(sda1) md: md2 stopped. md: unbindsdb2 md: export_rdev(sdb2) md: unbindsda2 md: export_rdev(sda2) md: md3 still in use. md: md3 still in use. md: md3 still in use. mdadm: stopped /dev/md1 mdadm: stopped /dev/md2 mdadm: fail to stop array /dev/md3: Device or resource busy [ !! ] * Remounting remaining filesystems readonly ... [ ok ] md: stopping all md devices. md: md3 still in use. Synchronizing SCSI cache for disk sdb: Synchronizing SCSI cache for disk sda: System halted. So, my question is quite simple i guess; Is it normal that my array (/dev/md3) doesn't like to be stopped? And if it isn't, how can I make it stop? btw, if you think I should post this kind of questions somewhere else, I'd be happy to hear so... thanks -- gentoo-amd64@gentoo.org mailing list

And if it isn't, how can I make it stop? It would be helpful if you told us what filesystems you have mounted on '/dev/md3'. If it is your root partition, then it makes sense that it cannot be unmounted, as the programs and files used in the shutdown are located on it! This is not a problem however, as part of the shutdown process is to remount as read-only any filesystems that cannot be cleanly unmounted. * Remounting remaining filesystems readonly ... [ ok ] This prevents any further writes to the disk, while still allowing processes access to their data. Synchronizing SCSI cache for disk sdb: Synchronizing SCSI cache for disk sda: Disk buffers are then synchronised to disk, removing any risk of data corruption, and the system is halted. System halted. So in answer to your question, it is quite normal and is not a problem. If '/dev/md3' does not house your root partition, then it probably contains a daemon that is refusing to shutdown in an orderly manner. Running `lsof /partition` might help you track it down. -atj -- gentoo-amd64@gentoo.org mailing list

installing gentoo-64 and upgrading it is sufficient to put it down, no use to set fire.
