[gentoo-dev] QEMU Sick!
Now I'm pissed off! Am I so stupid to build GCC3 now? Qemu can be build with GCC 4 (exc. 4.3.2). Im tired about complaining pseudo developers about taking some ideas not needed by anyone. What don't working in Gentoo: - intel driver (i965) with connection to MESA - some not available video modes, strange driver configuration workarounds and exc. ACCELERATION. - rtl8187B wi-fi driver (kernel built-in) - on Ubuntu works OK, on gentoo drops connection after 4 sec. of working. - performance! Performance got some coffee at work break! - No main packages updates. - No serious Gentoo-Wiki - rewritten after great boom! - Portage blocks! - in 2005 there was no blocks, system was stable and working with max performance - now blocks are needed - WHY?! - Amd64 have oldest packages developed by devs (much don't work). - GLI death! People used GLI! You write OS for PPL, not for Your usage. - Stupid ideas about kicking off creator of Gentoo - You using his work! That's sucks! Try to rewrite whole portage by Your own then You can kick off anyone You like! - KDE 4.1 packages updates... or should I say - none of it! Latest unstable version of KDE 4 is 4.2 version!!! - Some Python based apps like Elisa. - On em28xx V4L2 DVB TV cards audio don't work (exc. at drivers from portage). - Worst Wine experience Ever! If You don't have NVidia properitary drivers and NV card, You can go on tree with bananas streightning propositions. ... and much more! Check DistroWatch what You done with Gentoo! In 2007 Yr. Gentoo was 7-th place, and now? Nice work! Nice... - Also thanks for GREAT OpenGL support for i965 (on ubuntu works great)- when try to write app in C++ and OpenGL, after running whole screen takes some bars with rainbow colors - nice picture, but not for programmer. BTW. Hibernation on 2.6.28 kernel also not working! On Debian/Ubuntu, Knoppix with not pached kernels compiled from source it works perfect. Going to Funtoo!

Our procedure is that if the people involved can't resolve it together, they can ask council for a resolution. It seems like progress has been happening in the last third or so of that bug, so I don't think we need to step in unless Mike or Ciaran ask. -- Thanks, Donnie Donnie Berkholz Developer, Gentoo Linux Blog: http://dberkholz.wordpress.com pgpY4pop4BKZB.pgp Description: PGP signature

Can we get a consensus on bash version in the tree? this thread[1] is unresolved. I understand that the PMS draft is not set in stone (or something), but please...let's progress and update the spec[2]. I feel that this makes it hard for other projects relying on Gentoo to do some things without being able to *know* what version of bash is allowed. Currently, our /draft/ says bash-3.0 but our tree says otherwise. [1]: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.gentoo.devel/59154 [2]: Or make the tree comply, I don't really care tbh.

Do whatever you think will help Gentoo better. Bye, Norberto I don't reply on here much so please forgive me this one, and maybe a few more in the future. One, Gentoo grows on a person. If you are not willing to try it for at least a couple months and put in the effort to learn it, don't even try it. You are wasting time. Two, I bet there is a easy fix to his problem with regard to the error he posted. Most likely a known one at that. Third, he should try the latest portage that takes care of blocks very well. It may not be stable yet but it has worked so far and I suspect it would work for him as well. It's funny how a person can run into one issue and then blame everyone else for them not doing a little research. I also didn't see him post on -user to see if there is a workaround for his problem either. Maybe he needs to try Windoze. O_O While I am here, as a user of Gentoo for about 5 years or so, thanks for all the good work. There have been a lot of curves and bumps but ya'll do some super coding to say it lightly! Wish I was filthy rich. I would send all the devs a new rig to play with. Maybe even the MIPS folks too. LOL Just wishing tho. I'm not even sure what a MIPS is tho I suspect they are old.
