[gentoo-user] /bin contains busybox executables after installing busybox-1.13.2
Hi. I've just stumbled on an abnormality for which I've yet no explanation. Posting for possible general interest.

[gentoo-user] KDE3 removal
Hello, I've been updating a kde3 workstation to kde4 off and on for a few days now. KDE4 is installed and seem to work, no extensive testing yet. However, when I run revdep-rebuild, it complains about numerous kde3 based packages. Most, if not all had the kde4 equivalent packages installed. So I just manually deleted the list of kde3.5.x based packages. snip So a few more manual passes of removing the offending kde-3.5.x packages and I'm down to this list of packages that revdep-rebuild wants to rebuild: I get the list from revdep-rebuild, research if I want the packages and then clean out the (crufted) revdep-rebuild list and continue until I'm down to these packages: These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done!

I did not actually allow revdep-rebuild to complete, as I want all vestiges of kde3 and other cruft gone. Now I have a list I can focus on, except, I'm confused about device-mapper, ,cryptsetup, and xulrunner as my research suggest device-mapper is not needed, but it is being call by: [ Searching for packages depending on device-mapper... ] sys-fs/cryptsetup-1.0.6-r2 (=sys-fs/device-mapper-1.00.07-r1) Research suggests that I can install lvm2 and be done with that?

Re: [gentoo-user] what is overloaded my X server?
2009/11/25 Helmut Jarausch jarau...@igpm.rwth-aachen.de: Hi, on one of several machines and only occasionally my X-server (/usr/bin/X) takes nearly 100% CPU. I have killed some applications but this didn't help unless I killed X itself and restarted it. Is there any way to find out what is hogging my X server?

Anyone know how to get portage to make externally supplied binaries to supply

done without using portage just fine, but the eclipse itself, that I would
really rather use a portage ebuild for installation.
I don't know about installing binary stuff - probably wouldn't work

Mark, I could be responsible for this (the fact that it seems that neither of
the things I really wanted to know are covered) because sometimes I am not clear
in what I'm asking, so let me try again.
I need to get an up-to-date version of eclipse working on my gentoo box. First
question is, is there a Galileo (3.5+) version of eclipse available as a portage
package? I can't find it, so I'd really appreciate a pointer. The only thing I
can see is a fairly old eclipse version (I think a year or more out of date).
Second question, at the eclipse website, I see a binary version of the latest
Linux-eclipse (the version I'm after). If I *can't* get a portage package
version of Galileo-eclipse, then if I install the binary package (non-portage)
from the eclipse website, can I get (and how can I get) portage to consider this
package as supplying any dependency which would be otherwise supplied by the
latest (ganymede, 3.4+) portage version of the eclipse tool
.
Unless I'm completely misreading your stuff, your examples tell me how to
install the (too old) portage version, which is in all cases just too old for
me, so my 2 questions boil down to (1) must I?, and (2) How do I?
Thanks for your time, Mark.

This is what would happen if you temporarily told the system to allow
the installation of ~arch packages. Temporarily setting ~arch is a Bad Idea!
I need to get an up-to-date version of eclipse working on my gentoo box. First
question is, is there a Galileo (3.5+) version of eclipse available as a portage
package? I can't find it, so I'd really appreciate a pointer. The only thing I
can see is a fairly old eclipse version (I think a year or more out of date).
That is because the newer version is keyworded with ~arch. Emerge will
not tell you that there is a newer, keyworded version available.
Second question, at the eclipse website, I see a binary version of the latest
Linux-eclipse (the version I'm after). If I *can't* get a portage package
version of Galileo-eclipse,
Don't worry, I'll show you how in a little bit!
then if I install the binary package (non-portage)
from the eclipse website, can I get (and how can I get) portage to consider this
package as supplying any dependency which would be otherwise supplied by the
latest (ganymede, 3.4+) portage version of the eclipse tool
As far as I know of, that is not possible without ugly hacks.
Unless I'm completely misreading your stuff, your examples tell me how to
install the (too old) portage version, which is in all cases just too old for
me, so my 2 questions boil down to (1) must I?, and (2) How do I?
I don't know what you mean by must I?, but the answer to How do I?
is right here:
First, you need to create a folder called /etc/portage as root. Then,
create a file called package.keywords in that directory. When you want
to install a keyworded package (dev-java/eclipse-ecj-3.5.1 in this
case), you run
ACCEPT_KEYWORDS=~x86 emerge -pv eclipse-ecj
to see what packages are needed for the keyworded version. Then, you
copy the the package names mentioned to package.keywords. In the example
above, the command outputted:
[ebuild N] dev-python/pyxml-0.8.4-r2 USE=-doc -examples 0 kB
[ebuild N] dev-java/javatoolkit-0.3.0-r3 17 kB
[ebuild N] dev-java/ant-core-1.7.1-r4 USE=-doc -source 6,828 kB
[ebuild N] app-admin/eselect-ecj-0.3 0 kB
[ebuild N] dev-java/eclipse-ecj-3.5.1 USE=ant 1,268 kB
[ebuild N] dev-java/ant-eclipse-ecj-3.5.1 0 kB
So you would add this:
dev-python/pyxml-0.8.4-r2
dev-java/javatoolkit-0.3.0-r3
dev-java/ant-core-1.7.1-r4
app-admin/eselect-ecj-0.3
dev-java/eclipse-ecj-3.5.1
dev-java/ant-eclipse-ecj-3.5.1
to the package.keywords file (note that this will probably be different
for your system, you should run the command yourself and use that output
to find out what you should put in the file). I would also put a note
above the lines to say why and when they were added, in case I forget.
Then you can run emerge -av eclipse-ecj and see if it lists the new
versions of everything.

I just set up suspend to ram on my old Dell Dimension 8200. It has a Cirrus Logic CS 4614/22/24/30 [CrystalClear SoundFusion Audio Accelerator] sound card which uses the snd_cs46xx kernel driver. After suspending to ram (using hibernate-ram) and resuming, sound no longer works. I checked out dmesg, and it says that (among other things): during suspend: [ 354.947535] Sound Fusion CS46xx :02:07.0: PCI INT A disabled during resume: [ 355.029211] Sound Fusion CS46xx :02:07.0: restoring config space at offset 0xf (was 0x18040100, writing 0x18040103) [ 355.029231] Sound Fusion CS46xx :02:07.0: restoring config space at offset 0x5 (was 0x0, writing 0xfe10) [ 355.029239] Sound Fusion CS46xx :02:07.0: restoring config space at offset 0x4 (was 0x0, writing 0xfe2ff000) [ 355.029246] Sound Fusion CS46xx :02:07.0: restoring config space at offset 0x3 (was 0x0, writing 0x4000) [ 355.029256] Sound Fusion CS46xx :02:07.0: restoring config space at offset 0x1 (was 0x410, writing 0x4100102) [ 355.128883] Sound Fusion CS46xx :02:07.0: PCI INT A - GSI 16 (level, low) - IRQ 16 this is the interesting bit: [ 365.672980] cs46xx: failure waiting for FIFO command to complete I searched the web, but found nothing relevant.

Just restore your latest backup to the new partition, then edit /etc/fstab to specify the proper layout. Easy - I do it often. Okay, I just can't resist asking this nosy question: Why do you need to restore from backup often?

Just bypass revdep-rebuild for this and install lvm2, then possibly reboot

Well revdep-rebuild finally shows clear.

I find it odd that you have two SLOTs of xulrunner. These days we tend to
need
only one at a time. Perhaps you have both in world; what does equery depends
have to say about those packages?

There should be the option somewhere in there to stop alsasound when it hybernates and start it again on resume. That doesn't work, thanks for the suggestion though. I even tried running /etc/init.d/alsasound stop from a terminal, and sound kept playing. I added RestartServices alsasound to common.conf, and suspend + resumed. Going down, audio continued until the screen went black, then it jittered until the computer actually turned off (1/2 second later). When I pressed the power button to resume, I heard a pop, but nothing else. I think I need to actually restart the drivers and the hardware after resuming...and ideas? Marcus
