I like the simplicity of this suggestion, but it makes the whole
configuration asymmetric, which doesn't fit with my way of keeping it in
a git repo with branches for the different hosts. The chroot is a
better match for that.
In the meantime, because I have some marginally free CPU resources
available, I tried distcc. I can't get it to work in portage at all; it
fails to create some lockfile due to wrong permissions. It may not be
hard to fix it but it makes me suspect the setup doesn't get much
testing, if any.

First of all, I've seen quite a big boost just by using '-O3'!
My speeding-up-relevant flags (for a Athlon II X2 250 "Regor") are:
-O3 -march=native -mtune=native -mfpmath=sse -msse4a \
-funwind-tables -fasynchronous-unwind-tables
You'll have to adjust -march=/-mtune= for the Atom and -m* for both,
crosscheck with e.g.
$ grep ^flags /proc/cpuinfo |tr ' ' '\n' |grep sse | sort -u
misalignsse
sse
sse2
sse4a
or app-portage/cpuid2cpuflags.

And/or setup some wrappers/shell-functions, that setup flags like:
emerge-atom ===
#!/bin/sh
FEATURES="buildpkg"
PKGDIR="${PORTDIR}/laptop_binpkg_dir"
export CFLAGS="..."
export CXXFLAGS="..."

emerge "$@"
and then use 'emerge ' for the desktop and 'emerge-atom' for the
laptop. Or something along those lines.
On the other paw, one could run some benchmarks, comparing both native
flags vs. the "common demnominator" (and -O2 vs -O3 ;)...

Create a /etc/portage/env/${CATEGORY}/${PACKAGE} file. It should be in

[gentoo-user] Package specific post-emerge hooks?
Hi, I was wondering if there was a way to run a shell script anytime a specific package is updated. My use case for this is as follows: I have a high DPI display, so I've modified Chromium's .desktop file to include the `--force-device-scale-factor=1.5` flag. It works fine, but the problem is that this file obviously gets overwritten on each update, so I have to manually run a sed script after every Chromium update. This is rather annoying, and since I've done this for over a year now I finally want to stop being lazy about it and tackle the issue. Any suggestions are welcome, thanks. -- Regards, Christoph

Use crossdev to generate an x86_64-pc-linux-gnu (or x86) toolchain.
You can specify something in place of "pc" to identify the system and
be fairly compliant, or you can invent your own naming and specify the
architecture manually. This will create a root in /usr with the name
given that will have a make.conf in /usr/${name}/etc/portage and
generated packages in /usr/${name}/usr/portage/packages.

Set up a container (or chroot but a container is easier to manage) containing a copy of the root filesystem of the laptop. Tweak make.conf to add buildpkg and set an appropriate PKGDIR. then you can just enter the container/chroot and run your world update or whatever else you want to emerge. Now export the PKGDIR over NFS and mount it on the laptop and add --usepkg to the portage default opts in make.conf. -- Neil Bothwick Don't judge a book by its movie. pgpdVFN4WEhsH.pgp Description: OpenPGP digital signature

[gentoo-user] Binary packages for a different amd64 flavor
I have had it with compiling stuff from source on my laptop. It is just too slow. So I would like to create binary packages on my desktop and then just tell the laptop to use them. Simple enough, except that the desktop is AMD Phenom, and the laptop is Intel 64 bit Atom. Up to now, each system had unique CFLAGS to squeeze as much performance as possible. On the desktop: CFLAGS="-march=barcelona --param l1-cache-size=64 --param l1-cache-line-size=64 --param l2-cache-size=512 -O2 -pipe" On the laptop: CFLAGS="-march=ivybridge --param l1-cache-size=32 --param l1-cache-line-size=64 --param l2-cache-size=4096 -O2 -pipe" I don't want to give up these tunings, but from the wiki page [1] I can see no straightforward way to have different CFLAGS when compiling binary packages, from the normal CFLAGS when installing directly from source on the host system.

255.0.0.0/8 is special and 0.0.0.0/0 is very special.
255/8 is not globally routed and contains 255.255.255.255 which is used

So not the gateway but 0.0.0.0.
0/0 is functionally equivalent to the default gateway.

nothing). I can obviously work around that but I'm very confused why it
doesn't work the same in both.
It sounds like you also need to route 10/8 in addition to the
aforementioned prefixes.
I find it suspect that "b" doesn't work. I wonder if it's related to
the DNS server that you're querying, specifically if it's internal /

I'm not a Gentoo developer and I'm not doing this on behalf of the Gentoo Foundation. I was just l curious to find out what could have caused the issue you're having and if possible to try and come up with a fix. I can't promise I will be able to fix this for you. Chances are, the next kmods and/or kernel upgrade will have fixed this for you. Any reason you're trying to load those modules by hand rather then have them loaded for you automatically? Did dmesg have any more info on the failing modules?
[gentoo-user] Different resolutions in startup
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA512 Hi Folks, I have something that annoys me somehow when starting the system. Usually I set the fb resolution in grub with a proper vga command line. The problem begins afterwards that the resolution gets changed afterwards to a very poor resolution before asked to type the password for disk encryption. After that the resolution changes again to a different (but higher) resolution. (I think, that is the final resolution set by conf.d.) I did not find a way to change the intermediate resolution to a better value or even find a way to prevent the resolution switch at all... Anybody an idea how to set the resolution in grub command line and not changing it afterwards?
