Just 32,  sorry. But I'll  be glad to provide  a 64 one if you briefly

Re: switch back from gcc-3.4 to pure64

2005-01-25 Thread Ludovic watteaux
 recently, i found the gcc-3.4 branch a little more unstable than usual. 
I agree.

First i've install libc6 pure64.
 if you plan do switch back, too, make /etc/apt/sources.list point to the
 any of the pure64 branch mirrors, do 'apt-get update' and run
 'dpkg --get-selections | grep -w install | \
 xargs - -n 20 apt-get install --reinstall -y'

but if i run this :
'dpkg --get-selections | grep -w install | \
xargs -n 20 apt-get install --reinstall -y'

Don't work for me because the system can't reinstall the the same version 
and the revision number is higher for some packages in gcc-3.4 archives.

For exemple.
sh-3.00$ apt-cache policy gcc-3.4
gcc-3.4:
  Installed: 3.4.3-7.0.0.1.gcc4
  Candidate: 3.4.3-7.0.0.1.gcc4
  Version Table:
 *** 3.4.3-7.0.0.1.gcc4 0
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
 3.4.3-7 0
500 http://debian-amd64.alioth.debian.org sid/main Packages

What can i do for this ?
Force Downgrade all packages,  how ?

Thanks.
Ludovic

I think it's because of the bubbles, but i'm not sure.

 I was never able to bbot 2.6.9 (it crashed even earlier)
 And with 22.6.8 I was not able to halt the system.
 I am left using 2.6.7 and am experiencing random freezes.

Ah, yes. it's circulare, isn't it ?

 Anybody has a solution with 2.6.10 as I hope it will be more stable.

Wel, indeed, you could go horse.

Seconded. Please, if you have nothing nice to say, silence is golden...
Leoncini, your problems are unusual and troubleshooting them will 
doubtless be a project. This port of debian is raw, upstream support for 
the hardware is often raw, and I take it no one else here has had similar 
issues... in other words, you are probably on your own. You will have to 
learn more about the kernel and the parts of it that are failing, check 
for possible hardware problems (!)...

Take that with a grain of salt too.

that's right

in that regard a 32bits Live CD helps tremendously

and Knoppix is a good start

next, if you still have problems (most probably hardware) check with low
level checkers like memtest86+ and others

the Ultimate Boot CD is also a good resource
http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/

it includes several tools very Windows PC oriented along with few
small Live CD (Tom's Boot Disk, RIP, INSERT...)

this is a great swiss army knife for PC troubleshooting

gcc-3.4: cvs sigsegv's

2005-01-25 Thread Javier Kohen
Hi,
I trashed my root partition and finally decided to install the AMD64 
port (namely the gcc-3.4 one). I had a backup of my CVS repository, but 
unfortunately it's a couple weeks old. I didn't lose (most of) my 
working copy, so I'm trying to commit to the old repository. I sorted 
out some problems manually, but now the daemon is doing a segmentation 
fault when I try to access certain files. The repository files are valid 
RCS files, so the problem doesn't seem to fit in the bad input fed to 
program category.

Now, I'm not sure this is an AMD64-specific problem, but I have no way 
to go back to a pure 32-bit userlsand from here. I noticed this CVS 
version seems to have come from pure64 (instead of gcc-3.4), as the 
package name is cvs_1.12.9-10_amd64.deb, so I was trying to recompile it 
locally, but I couldn't get apt-src to work. Any suggestions on how to 
proceed or what to do to try to pin point the problem?

Thanks,

I was also wondering whether installing the 32-bit cvs package would

Hash: SHA1
I hate to be answering to myself, but I finally got somehow to build the
cvs package and now it works...
A few remarks:
1) I added a deb-src for pure64 and now apt-src install cvs gives a
segmentation fault instead of saying it can't find the source.
2) I compiled CVS with -ggdb -Wall instead of the default of -O2 -Wall.
3) I just compiled agin with -ggdb -O2 -Wall and it also works.
4) I'm compiling with gcc (GCC) 3.4.4 20041218 (prerelease) (Debian
3.4.3-7.0.0.1.gcc4).
I've been following the list for two weeks or so, but I'm not sure what
the procedure I should follow is. Anybody any suggestions, or should I
forget about it and the auto builder will fix it next build?

915_debian_xorg_bar_amd64.diff

Package: xserver-xfree86
Version: 4.3.0.dfsg.1-10
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch,upstream,fixed-upstream,sid,amd64

I do not know if I tagged this report right and put the right severity level, 
but it should be 'grave' severity instead of 'wishlist' if it was not 
targeting only amd64 arch, right?

I think this patch could possible fix the problems with recents amd64 cpus, 
xfree86, nforce4 and pci-express cards mentioned here:  
http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=42597page=4 and fixed here:  
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2322 .

This patch should go right in the debian/patches directory of xserver-xfree86 
debian source, if I'm right. If not, please tell me how to serve you better 
next time.

Greetings.
