[gentoo-user] NFS issues.
NFS drives me nuts... I'm mounting a number of NFSv3 directories using the following mount options: async,soft,timeo=10,intr,noatime,rsize=8196,wsize=8196 When I shutdown a client Gentoo seems to shutdown the network before and without unmounting the NFS filesystems.

Two questions: How do I fix the shutdown sequence to unmount NFS drives before the network is shutdown?

[gentoo-user] Sound issue - can't use /dev/dsp
My MythTV Gentoo box has recently started having issues recording sound.
The TV tuner re-plays audio through the mic interface on my soundcard.
It has worked for months, but now MythTV can't read anything from /dev/dsp.
Any device that uses ALSA directly seems to work fine (like TVTime which
plays TV with audio just fine) - only those that rely on /dev/dsp seem to
have trouble. My simple test shows this:
# cat /dev/dsp /dev/null
cat: /dev/dsp: Input/output error
This was run as root. Perms are fine:
crw-rw 1 root audio 14, 3 2008-10-03 08:56 /dev/dsp
Myth user is in audio group (always has been).
Has something changed in ALSA that I didn't catch? I don't see anything in
my logs or dmesg that shows a problem. My /etc/asound.conf is as follows:
pcm.nforce-hw {
type hw
card 0
}
pcm.!default {
type plug
slave.pcm nforce
}
pcm.nforce {
type dmix
ipc_key 1234

buffer_size 4096
#rate 44100
rate 48000
}
}

I have tried without this asound.conf and see the same issue.

[gentoo-user] Modular X undefined symbols.
My last email didn't seem to make it to the list, I hope this isn't a duplicate. I've converted 4 machines to modular X, and one is having an issue. My laptop (Thinkpad T43) is getting the following error when I start X: dlopen: /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/i810_drv.so: undefined symbol vgaHWGetIndex If I run X -configure it complains about XAACreateInfoRec when loading i810_drv.so, and vgaHWGetIndex when loading vga_drv.so. It also complains about VBEExtendedInit when loading the VESA driver. I've followed the conversion how-to. I've set the dri USE flag. My VIDEO_CARDS flag is set to i810 vesa. I've been unable to find any solution...

Re: [gentoo-user] New Portage browser
GUI primarily, but a console for scripting. I agree. An ncurses interface would be nice, rather than a 'command line' version. We already have 'scriptable' tools. mask/unmask would be nice, but it's not absolutely necessary install/remove is necessary ;-) emerge command generator might be useful in a scripting application Everything you can think about, however I'd find most useful: - mask/unmask - install/remove - list of all installed packages - use flags for each package + description of what an use flag is doing - dependencies for each package Nice list. I'll add to this. - List of files in the package - Size on disk of installed packages - Installed packages that depend on this package -- // Andrew MacKenzie | http://www.edespot.com // GPG public key: http://www.edespot.com/~amackenz/public.key // You can measure a programmer's perspective by noting his attitude on // the continuing vitality of FORTRAN. // - Alan Perlis pgp1Cz5cASyb3.pgp Description: PGP signature
[gentoo-user] coLinux compiling glibc.
I've been running Gentoo on coLinux 0.6.2 for some time, and for the most part it works great! However, I've had an issue where at some point in compiling glibc the system hangs and is unresponsive (requiring a hard-reboot). Is anyone else out there running on coLinux and experiencing this problem?

Re: [gentoo-user] Nasty bugs in portage?
what have you been smoking Neil? A stage 3 install just means you have a biggish tarball at the start and it installs a very basic working system ready to comile on. You still do your own kernel and you can EITHER use GRP packages OR compile them yourself. I know, but the quote you removed was about using stage 3 to save time to have a running system asap. If that's your objective, you're hardly going to follow it up by compiling KDE and X from scratch, are you? I always have... stage 3 gets me to a point where while I'm compiling X, KDE, qt, Gnome, and the rest of the world, I can use my computer. Especially since the first things I emerge are those I'm likely to use (mutt, irc client, etc.). -- // Andrew MacKenzie | http://www.edespot.com // GPG public key: http://www.edespot.com/~amackenz/public.key // Anyone who has had a bull by the tail knows five or six more things // than someone who hasn't. // -- Mark Twain pgpKrqffJzVw2.pgp Description: PGP signature

I'm new to both Gentoo and Linux so I apologize if this is a stupid question. I've used bacula on FreeBSD and would like to put the bacula client on a Gentoo box I have running MythTV. Is there a way to build the client only using portage? Or do I have to build the whole thing and then only start the client? I've read the handbook on gentoo.org but can not seem to figure this one out. 'emerge bacula' installs the whole thing. What I did was to comment out the SD and DIR daemons in the /etc/init.d/bacula startup script (they're all started separately).
