[gentoo-user] problem with v86d
Hi. Does anyone have a clue as to why v86d should suddenly start being very cpu intensive on my computer? When I first boot its fine (using either systemd or openrc), but after a while -- maybe a day or two it starts using up lots of cpu and definitely increases the load average and slows down things. I notice this has not changed in several years, so I am wondering if it is not working as it used to? Thanks in advance for any ideas. -- Your life is like a penny. You're going to lose it.

With my setup (means: may be I did something wrong...;) it eats too much resources...there is only one Linux box for me work and for detecting motions and for recording video. The Logitech offers 1920x1080 Full HD HD264, which needs to be decoded frame by frame, analyzed and when found "interesting" to be recorded to disc while further analyzing steps are running. If motion failed (with my setup) to work with low res video streams I dont think that it will successfully run under the load of Full HD. Furthermore there is a delay of ~1 second between "reality" and video possbly due to not that fast compression hardware in the camera...

It looks like libvirt will automatically append accel=kvm to the machine options, which is equivalent to -enable-kvm.

[gentoo-user] N failed logins since your last login
I remember seeing that message years ago when logging in at an ordinary console, but not any time recently and never on my gentoo machines. But I just saw that message again yesterday when logging into a Fedora20 virtual machine running the gdm (gnome) display manager. Is there a way to display that 'failed logins' message without using gdm/kdm/xdm? Also, is there a way to display the same 'failed logins' message when logging in with ssh? Thanks for any clues.

Maybe, someday in the distant > future, I'll succeed in updating my Gentoo system after all. To start with, please avoid using -p (--pretend); sometimes emerge will continue regardless of what is displayed, which can help you forward. Though, that still might imply that you need to resolve that output. A very first thing you'll notice is that the Perl conflict seems to suggest that there is an old Perl version installed and a new Perl version scheduled to be merged. When you do a merge of an individual package, it won't consider the reverse dependencies of Perl and therefore it will result in a conflict instead of upgrading the reverse dependencies of Perl. A solution to this is to upgrade your entire system (@world) such that your entire system is in a consistent and upgraded state; however, this only is a way forward as long as it doesn't bring up a conflict. So ... In order to proceed here, you have to unmerge sys-power/upower (which you've already done) and mask sys-power/upower as well as sys-apps/systemd (yet to do), then an `emerge -auvDNt @world` should help you forward; if not, its output can help you bring it forward. If there is a mention about backtracking, try --backtrack=9001 or so; also, if it still tries to bring in sys-power/upower then you might have an overlay that attempts to do this (sync and/or contact author). As a result of the unmerge and mask, it picks upower-pm-utils for you. > Have a great evening!

You didn't tell udisks what to call the mount point so it has picked the only thing it has available - the ID of the filesystem. fstab is a really bad tool for this, it does not apply the rules to your USB sticks, it applies them to anything that just happens to get node /dev/sdb1. Don't assume that will *always* be a portable usb stick, because it won't. Read the udisks documentation to find out how to customize naming of mount points. -- Alan McKinnon alan.mckin...@gmail.com

Yes, but the packages that continue have nothing to do with the error, so it makes sense to get them out the way so only the problem packages are left. Also, when there's yet-another-bloody-chromium-update and I set it running and go to do something useful, I don't want to come back two hours later to find it didn't even try to build chromium because sys-unrelated/foo failed.
