Turns out this line in my fstab was the culprit. #tmp in ram none /tmp tmpfs defaults 1 2 Found this bug report [1] and so I changed the above entry to #tmp in ram tmpfs /tmp tmpfs defaults 0 0 works fine now.

Another note: you are mixing stable (opengl) and unstable (ghc) packages. It is usually fine, but in order to use anything from overlay you'll need to set unstable keywords for packages there. https://github.com/gentoo-haskell/gentoo-haskell/blob/master/README.rst contains some notes on adding haskell repo via layman. -- Sergei signature.asc Description: PGP signature

Got a fix? My solution was to edit /usr/share/alsa/alsa.conf, and change defaults.ctl.card and defaults.pcm.card from 0 to 1. Add this file to CONFIG_PROTECT in make.conf, or else the next alsa update will overwrite the file. Wonko

If you're not using LVM or RAID for root or /usr and you compile your filesystem into the kernel then it's very simple and should be about a five line (tops) init script (and even if those don't hold for you, it's not that much tougher.) If you spend the time now to do it yourself I think you'll find you have the tools and knowledge to track down any problems later. If you're willing to try again, I'm willing to work with you. If you can find your hand-rolled initramfs and the errors you were having we can figure it out. And for the record. I hate this whole /usr must be mounted in an initramfs or on /. It seems that all these arguments about bluetooth keyboards and such have it all exactly bass ackwards. If you have some flavor of hardware that isn't supported in the base kernel then you should be creating an initramfs for support. But I can't argue with people who donate their time getting to work on what they want to and supporting only what they want to. And I'm not ready to make and maintain an overlay that doesn't require this so it's time for me to stop gnashing my teeth and suck it up and get on with life. Todd P.S. - If you don't want to get an hand-rolled initramfs working, it would be interesting to see what an ls -lr /dev shows for the cases where everything works for you and where it doesn't.

Got a fix? I think you have to make the second one the default audio device. Possibly by editing the alsa.conf files found in /etc/modprobe.d and /usr/share/alsa.

This one reason why the udev developers believe that having /usr physically separate from / is "broken". No error messages from udev or any of its scripts are logged. Perhaps dmesg logging is "broken" too. > par for the course - run an initramfs (complexity) means more WILL go > wrong so ways to fix it for normal users need to be in place..

[gentoo-user] Systemd systemctl : Failed to get D-Bus connection
Hi, Wanted to see whats all the fuss about so I tried installing Systemd on a laptop. following the guide on wiki.gentoo.org [1]. But I am having trouble running systemctl to configure the services I want started. Heres what I get (both as root and as a normal user). # systemctl --all --full Failed to get D-Bus connection: No connection to service manager. I know Dbus is running for sure. $ ps ax | grep dbus 2094 ?Ss 0:09 /usr/bin/dbus-daemon --system 2803 ?S 0:00 /usr/bin/dbus-launch --sh-syntax --exit-with- session 2804 ?Ss 0:06 /usr/bin/dbus-daemon --fork --print-pid 5 --print- address 7 --session I tried booting with systemd to see what happens. It starts booting fine up to the point where it starts mounting the partitions. It just stops after mounting my /home partition. Nothing works at this point apart from a hard reboot. My partitioning is simple separate partitions for boot, home, root and the portage tree (all ext4). No separate /usr (phew). Also I do not have an initramfs. What am I missing? do I need to modify any of the systemd config files? etc? Here are the details of some of the packages. sys-fs/udev-182-r2 (gudev hwdb keymap openrc rule_generator -build -debug -doc -floppy -introspection -selinux -static-libs) sys-apps/systemd-43 (acl pam tcpd -audit -cryptsetup -gtk -lzma -plymouth - selinux) Thanks.
