Add -u to the options, it activates update behaviour

Without it, emerge takes you literally at your word and emerges
everything in the system set.

[gentoo-user] lxde no Desktop Preferences can be set

LXDE on the menu item Preferences ===> Desktop Preferences
Nothing can be set there and it does not even show a dialog

Openbox wm is installed.

Anyone know what that error message means or how to get around or fix

[gentoo-user] VIDEO_CARDS= apparently ignored and new pkgs assigned

Setup: VBox vm running gentoo(amd64) guest on a win-10 (64bit) host
 Hardware: HP xw8600 - 2x Xeon  CPU X5450 @ 3.00GHz - 32 GB ram

I'm having a situation where way too many packages are coming up
needing rebuilt during emerge world.

Decided to see what `emerge @preserved-rebuild would bring me.

ran `emerge -va @preserved-rebuild' and I notice that it appears my
setting in /etc/portage/make.conf for VIDEO_CARDS="virtualbox" is
being ignored... the output of above command shows:

  Calculating dependencies... done!
  
  [ebuild R ] x11-libs/libdrm-2.4.75::gentoo USE="-libkms -static-libs

Note how VIDEO_CARDS="amdgpu* nouveau* radeon* [...]"
is being assigned.

And the already installed (probably unneeded pkgs are being
reinstalled)

I considered ummerging those pkgs but checked `qdepends' on them and
that swears they are required by xorg-server not to mention this whole
string of other pkgs:

 qdepends x11-drivers/xf86-video-nouveau

x11-drivers/xf86-video-nouveau-1.0.13:

x11-base/xorg-server[-minimal] x11-libs/libdrm
x11-base/xorg-server[xorg] x11-libs/libpciaccess

The other pkgs get similar output

This was not the first time I checked qdepends on this.

I did notice back when some of those driver pkgs were initially
installed and wondered then why I needed them... I checked then with
qdepends too and found that they are required by xorg-server and a
similar string of other pkgs as shown above for each.

Can anyone say what is going on here...?  Is this normal?
Should I really be needing drivers for ati, nouveau etc?
Any ideas about what needs to be done if anything?

Setup: VBox vm running gentoo(amd64) guest on a win-10 (64bit) host

I've seen a few other mentions of the phenomena I'm about to describe.
It is not clear to me why something like this would happen. Or what is
to be done to prevent it.

After going thru install and bulding of X based lxde desktop gentoo
OS, I'm at the stage where I would do another emerge world followed by
--depclean  or something similar.

Decided to take the @world in the two available bites; @system then
@world

My cmdline was `emerge -vaDt @system'

Showed 44 pkgs only 2 were updates and 42 were reinstalls.

Already it seemed like something might be off to have that many
reinstalls with no --newuse or --changed-use involved.

I let it run thinking it might have to do with a small list of
packages causing reinstalls.

Once that finished I ran `emerge -vaDt @world'

It showed 76 packages 2 updates 1 N in new slot and 73 reinstalls.

Further, very many of the reinstalls were packages that had just been
reinstalled during @system  Same versions, same use flags.

At a glance I could see that nearly all or all of the packages rebuilt
during During the @system run were to be done over again under a @world
run,

Surely there can be no reason for this absent some other factor like
new or changed use flags.

So what causes this Groundhog day syndrome and how does one break out
of it?

Is there actually a disk on that interface? - I have a system where one
sdx allocated to an unused sata port with nothing attached - it returns
similar information to yours above - check the other entries.

I'm not sure how the sg? -> sd? mapping is supposed to work. I find it
odd that there seems to be two nodes reported for each sd? entry.
However, this could be the way the controller driver reports it to the
kernel...

Well, if you are using a hw raid card in jbod mode the controller will
generally not report that info. You'd have to install the controller's
cli management tools and use that. You'd have to figure out which
controller your drives are attached to.

Adaptec uses sys-block/arcconf
LSI uses sys-block/megacli
3ware uses sys-block/tw_cli

An example of my 3ware card in my home server:

//> /c4 show drivestatus

VPort Status Unit Size  Type  Phy Encl-SlotModel
--
p0OK u0   931.51 GB SATA  0   -WDC
WD1003FBYX-01Y7
p1OK u0   931.51 GB SATA  1   -WDC
WD1003FBYX-01Y7
p2OK u0   931.51 GB SATA  2   -WDC
WD1003FBYX-01Y7
p3OK u0   931.51 GB SATA  3   -WDC
WD1003FBYX-01Y7
p4OK u0   931.51 GB SATA  4   -WDC
WD1003FBYX-01Y7
p5OK u0   931.51 GB SATA  5   -WDC
WD1003FBYX-01Y7
p6OK u0   931.51 GB SATA  6   -WDC
WD1003FBYX-01Y7
p7OK u0   931.51 GB SATA  7   -WDC
WD1003FBYX-01Y7

I can also pick a drive and get stats:
//> /c4/p0 show model
/c4/p0 Model = WDC WD1003FBYX-01Y7B1

//> /c4/p0 show serial
/c4/p0 Serial = WD-WMAW31350107

The management tools for the other cards should provide this sort of
functionality.

If you had used the raid card to create an array the management cli
tools with show that a specific port is dead and you query it for the
serial number.

This doesn't help you with the sg mapping. The problem for you now will
be figuring out why sg_map is reporting the way it is.

nice one, thanks.
But the shown serials don't match the serials on the disk(s) :-(

I also tried "-O" and searched for them.

It seems that the controller adds some extra layer or something.
The vendor is shown as "ICP" (wrong in a way), I see partitions and so
(looks good).

I have a list containing the actual vendors/serials on the physical
labels, and the order in the physical slots, plus which label matches
which /dev/sgX

*but* the map between sg- and sd-devices isn't correct IMO.

This is really a pita because I never can tell exactly which physical
disk failed, I only see "ah, sdi1 was kicked out of the array" but then
the search starts

I have this software-raid:

md3 : active raid6 sdi1[8] sdh1[6] sdg1[4] sdf1[5] sde1[3] sdd1[2] sdc1[0]
  4391334912 blocks level 6, 64k chunk, algorithm 2 [8/6] [U_U_]
  [>]  recovery = 22.8% (167386900/731889152)
finish=196.6min speed=47837K/sec

and I would like to know which hard disk (vendor, serial) each /dev/sdX is.

(I have to tell the remote admin which physical disk to remove from the
server, and there are disks in the server which aren't part of the RAID yet)

Found sg_map and sg_scan:


# sg_map
/dev/sg0  /dev/nst0
/dev/sg1
/dev/sg2  /dev/sda
/dev/sg3  /dev/sdb
/dev/sg4  /dev/sdc
/dev/sg5  /dev/sdd
/dev/sg6  /dev/sde
/dev/sg7  /dev/sdf
/dev/sg8  /dev/sdg
/dev/sg9  /dev/sdh
/dev/sg10  /dev/sdi
/dev/sg11
/dev/sg12
/dev/sg13
/dev/sg14
/dev/sg15
/dev/sg16
/dev/sg17
/dev/sg18
/dev/sg19
/dev/sg20
/dev/sg21

The crux:

It seems I get two sg-devices per physical disk:

sda = sg2 = sg11 ...

sg11 is shown as SEAGATE, sg2 as ICP

(tried -d scsi and -d sat as well)

and I only get useful info from the sg-devices >10

I see now what you mean (and meant, previously)!

No, you're not. Because you corrected your mistake.

(Very busy... got to go.)
