Re: [lfs-support] Brand new and confused. Mostly about the 7.5 book.

I only compile text mode tools (no graphics) and working system uses about 1-2 GB of root partition, but I use 10 Gb disk to build initial system. /alexey -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
[lfs-support] CLFS eudev vs LFS udev
Hi guys, I have an old LFS 6.3 system I'm going to upgrade. I've noticed that LFS-7.4 and CLFS 2.1.0 have two different udev variants. A few questions related to that: - Will CLFS and LFS go different ways in package selection? (udev in particular) - Which one udev variant CLFS Eudev-1.3 or LFS Udev-206 (Extracted from systemd-206) would you recommend? I'm aiming at minimum changes needed while moving from legacy udev.

There are a few issues with a new release for me at this point: - I need a kernel which has a long term support (3.10.x used in LFS-7.4 does) - I've switched from LFS to Cross-LFS and building on 64-bit Intel Core2 for 32-bit Intel Atom...

[lfs-support] (B)LFS-7.4 with latest kernel 3.10.x
Hi folks, I've built original LFS-7.4 and I'd like to use the latest Linux Kernel version (currently 3.10.28) due to several bug fixes. On already working system I've simply compiled a new kernel, installed it and it works. I have a question related to LFS book ch.8.3.1, where warning was posted: - The headers in the system's include directory should always be the ones against which Glibc was compiled, that is, the sanitized headers from this Linux kernel tarball. Therefore, they should never be replaced by either the raw kernel headers or any other kernel sanitized headers. - If building 3.10.next version, do I need to replace kernel headers, i.e. rebuild Glibc and all stuff related to it? - Is there any consequences if I keep old headers Glibc while booting from new kernel? (meaning: still 3.10, but latest patch level) Regards, Alexey -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
Re: [lfs-support] [blfs-support] problem using BS or DEL key

I've recently built LFS-7.4 (32bit) and most of BLFS (I'm not using X Windows, just text terminals only) on Atom D2550 motherboard, VGA display resolution. When I logged in if I try to edit bash command line by deleting symbol with BS rest of the text line became solid white blocks. The same happens if I edit in mcedit (editing in midnight commander). If I scroll text garbage symbols scroll as well). Same happens if I use DEL key, but not every time. I also use loadkeys with no-latin1 (dunno if it might cause any trouble or not). This sounds very much like the problem that I had just under a year ago. Have a look in the archives for keyboard-1.15.3 errors on backspace with UK keymap dated 15/12/2012. Coincidently, it was on a similar Atom-based board -- DN2800MT. Richard Resending to LFS mailing list since kbd is included in that book as well as old posts you've mentioned: http://www.mail-archive.com/lfs-support@linuxfromscratch.org/msg19193.html Unfortunately it didn't help (even recompiled kbd with patch applied). I have system with LANG=en_US.UTF-8, which should be the default. However I currently have Norwegian keyboard and I would really like to get all *?- etc.symbols in the right place. - I don't have any issues if I use ssh connection, only on local terminals. - Square blocks are appearing only if symbol deleted within a text (i.e. not the last one) and usually after deliting at least 2 symbols. - Square blocks are appearing till the end of screen even if there was no text there with black space between white. - while deleting yet one more symbol whole line became white (one more black position became white). I've noticed, that I don't need to edit text to get problem visisble, just scroll text in mcedit. For example scrolling dircolors file get this problem 100%. Position on the terminal screen remains white even if I quit mcedit. At least LANG=en_US.UTF-8 and non-us keyboard are working file with Ubuntu... I wonder what's wrong with my LFS setup... /alexey -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
