So I've removed rest-client-2.1.0 and installed 2.0.2. And then:

Re: [gentoo-user] Not enough RAM for dev-qt/qtwebengine build

2019-06-13 Thread Alexey Eschenko
Thank you. Didn't think about that. Don't know why though.My MAKEOPTS was "-j32". Looks like that was too many for package like qtwebengine.Solved the problem with creating specific environment for qtwebengine and setting it up in /etc/portage/package.env/It was vry long build process but this time it finished successfully. I think I'll try to find more appropriate value for qtwebengine which could be used with 32GB of RAM.Thanks again! 13.06.2019, 13:40, "tedheadster" :Alexey,  you can check /etc/portage/make.conf and see if there is aMAKEOPTS="-j8" or similar variable. If not, add it and make the numberof jobs small, like "-j2". I have a similar problem when I buildsys-devel/binutils; it is a huge memory hog.- Matthew

That was my first move. Unfortunately it didn't help.But in the first answer in this thread I saw a good idea about decreasing number of parallel build threads.I have MAKEOPTS="-j32" and it's probably the cause of my problem with this package.Right now I'm trying separate build environment with decreased job count value and it looks promissing.I'll leave the message with results in the reply to that message. 13.06.2019, 14:13, "Neil Bothwick" :On Thu, 13 Jun 2019 13:19:24 +0300, Alexey Eschenko wrote:  For some time I have problems with dev-qt/qtwebengine (at least 5.12.3) build.

[gentoo-user] Not enough RAM for dev-qt/qtwebengine build

2019-06-13 Thread Alexey Eschenko
Hi.For some time I have problems with dev-qt/qtwebengine (at least 5.12.3) build. As far as I can see it fails to build due to memory exhaustion. Although I have 32 GB of RAM (at least 20 of them is almost always free) looks like it's not enough. It's strange because I have no problems with Firefox/Chromium/Libreoffice builds.The build ends with full (32GB/32GB) memory usage and significant system lag (mouse/keyboard input, output, video and sound is freezing for ~10+ seconds) every time and then Portage is marking it as failed with something like this in the end of the logs: https://cp.skobk.in/2096/ae027ec300f014f6Also I have something like this in the kernel log:Jun 13 12:42:24 skobkin-pc kernel: oom-kill:constraint=CONSTRAINT_NONE,nodemask=(null),cpuset=/,mems_allowed=0,global_oom,task_memcg=/user.slice/user-1000.slice/session-1.scope,task=cc1plus,pid=39585,uid=250Jun 13 12:42:24 skobkin-pc kernel: Out of memory: Killed process 39585 (cc1plus) total-vm:1715764kB, anon-rss:1615872kB, file-rss:0kB, shmem-rss:0kBJun 13 12:42:24 skobkin-pc kernel: oom_reaper: reaped process 39585 (cc1plus), now anon-rss:0kB, file-rss:0kB, shmem-rss:0kBIt's the first time when I encountered a problem like this on my system and now I'm thinking how to deal with it. Has anyone dealt with this? Is there any solutions other than buying more RAM  (I don't need more RAM for my work/entertainment right now)? Thanks in advance.

Also I've encountered other problem when ran gparted-pkexec:

It can probably be related to this problem:

Maybe I need to post the issue to the Gentoo Bugzilla? Is it appropriate
for this kind of problems?

Re: [gentoo-user] Gentoo hardware database

2018-10-29 Thread Alexey Eschenko
It would probably be better to add "--no-*" options for each probe
section. For example:

--no-fstab
--no-lsblk
--no-xorg-conf
--no-xorg-log
--no-dmesg

And to have the page in the hw-probe wiki where these sections (and
disable parameters) are documented. And then link to this page could be
added to the Privacy section in the README.md.

So in the result each user will be able to determine which data he want
to share without modifying probe files.

Hi.

As far as I remember Opera for Linux will integrate with your system
keyring if it's present.

Last time I used it I was asked for system keyring password eventually
when I started to set up some settings or tried to save some password.

Do you have gnome-keyring or something alike installed?

The one for Gentoo is available at:https://linux-hardware.org/?d=GentooEveryone can contribute to the database with the help of https://github.com/linuxhw/hw-probe (various packages for the tool are available: AppImage, Snap, Flatpak, Docker, ebuild http://gpo.zugaina.org/sys-apps/hw-probe, etc.). The tool is intended to simplify collecting of logs necessary for investigating hardware related problems. You need to execute only one simple command to collect all system logs at once:sudo hw-probe -all -uploadHardware failures are highlighted in the collected logs (smartctl, dmesg, xorg.log). Also it's handy to search for particular hardware configurations in the community and review logs for errors to check operability of devices on board (for some devices this is done automatically by hw-probe — see statuses of devices in a probe).Enjoy!-- Sent from Yandex.Mail for mobile

I don't have ck-list-sessions binary in my filesystem. Looks like it's

[gentoo-user] Policykit problems (blueman, nm-applet, USB mount, etc) after some update

2018-10-26 Thread Alexey Eschenko
Hi.

Some time ago (probably between two weeks and month) after another
system update I started encountering problems with some userland
services like blueman and nm-applet.

I have encountered blueman problem every time when I logged in to my
XFCE session. Right after XFCE init I did see this:
https://github.com/blueman-project/blueman/issues/913

Probably at the same time I became unable to enable my VPN connections
using nm-applet. After choosing my connection from dropdown menu I've
seen the error in notification bubble:
> The VPN connection "..." failed to start.
> Not authorized to control networking

Third but not as likely related (not sure if it started to happen at the
same time) is XFCE shutdown/reboot problems. For some time I'm unable to
directly shutdown or reboot my PC from XFCE "Action Buttons" panel
plugin. If I choose "Restart" or "Shut Down" then XFCE just logs out
from my session and I will see SDDM. If I choose shutdown/reboot in SDDM
then all will be ok but direct shutdown from XFCE only logs me out.

And fourth problem is that for some time I became unable to mount USB
flash drives from the file manager. In Thunar when I'm clicking on USB
drive nothing happens (even nothing in the thunar console output if I
run it from there). There is also nothing strange in journalctl when I'm
plugging my USB flash drive.
If I try to mount my USB drive using "sudo mount /dev/sdX1
/media/usb_flash" then all works perfectly. udisksctl which I've never
used in the past (but was told to try after mentioning this problem)
mounts USB drive correctly but only after asking root password.

After reading the issue in the blueman repository I tried "fix" which
was mentioned here:
https://github.com/blueman-project/blueman/issues/912#issuecomment-427648539
https://github.com/blueman-project/blueman/wiki/PolicyKit

It did help with blueman error on XFCE start.
I'm not familiar with policykit at all but it looks like there was some
systematic changes in permission policies and I think that there must be
more correct and more generic solution than manually creating policykit
policies for every service which I notice problems with.

Re: [gentoo-user] Re: x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-391+ does not support latest GPU?

2018-04-13 Thread Alexey Eschenko
Before updating the nvidia driver, you should always check here: 
Yes I've checked. That's why I was surprised by Portage build log. I 
didn't build nvidia-drivers manually for a long time and do not remember 
where this GPU checks are (ebuild or driver package).


I didn't think that this driver will not work with my GPU. I was 
confused by the message and wanted to report. If it's ebuild-side 
problem then must I create an issue in the Bugzilla?

Before updating the nvidia driver, you should always check here:

  http://www.nvidia.com/Download/Find.aspx

and see if the version you're updating to is a beta driver or not.

As a long time nvidia-drivers user, I really recommend to:

  1. Use an LTS kernel series (latest LTS series is 4.14.x.)
  2. Do not install nvidia beta drivers.
  3. Do not use X.Org pre-releases.

Currently, that means these in package.mask:

  >=sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-4.15
  >=x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-391
  >=x11-base/xorg-server-1.19.99

Unless you're using Chrome, where 390 has a bug that makes it unusable 
slow, so you need:


  >=x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-385

You need to check on the available versions these packages manually 
from time to time to see if it's safe to update them.


Also, nvidia driver version can be confusing. 390 is the latest stable 
series, while 384 is the "LTS-like" stable series. To be frank, I find 
it impossible to tell what's happening with driver releases from 
nvidia if I don't read phoronix.com news.


In any event, the TL;DR is that sticking to non-beta drivers and 
non-beta xorg and the latest LTS kernel will result in avoiding the 
majority of breakages.

Re: [gentoo-user] net-wireless/blueman-2.1_alpha2 blocked by net-wireless/gnome-bluetooth - is it necessary?

Hi. Thank you for your attention. Try to remove the blocker in blueman, see if files collide or notHow can I remove the blocker in blueman? AFAIK it's not like adding package constraint to the package.unmask or something like that. I have no experience with writing ebuilds though.But I can check "equery f" for one package and then remove it, install another and check the same for it and then look for repeating file paths.

It's not at all strange; it's quite ordinary actually.

Keeping in mind that I do not use these packages, or gnome, look at the
available blueman packages:

# eix net-wireless/blueman
* net-wireless/blueman
  Available versions:  (~)2.0.3 (~)2.0.4 [M](~)2.1_alpha1 **
{appindicator network nls policykit pulseaudio thunar
PYTHON_SINGLE_TARGET="python2_7 python3_4 python3_5 python3_6"
PYTHON_TARGETS="python2_7 python3_4 python3_5 python3_6"}

2.1 is still in an alpha state, and it is p.masked:

/var/portage/profiles/package.mask:
# Michał Górny  (26 Jan 2017)
# Pre-release, masked for testing. Major changes since 2.0.4,
# including dropped support for BlueZ 4.

It is not unreasonable to conclude that blueman-2.1 intends to add
features that conflict with gnome-bluetooth and they can't co-exist. As
Vadim said, file collisions are often the underlying cause.

You unmasked an alpha package, clearly tagged as "for testing". Nothing
add abut the result you got at all.

It's up to the maintainer... we have no policy against it, but you don't
want to commit broken/untested packages to the tree obviously.

If the xdebug alpha is "we added php-7.2 support but haven't tested it
yet", then feel free to submit a normal version bump. On the other hand,
if it's "this new alpha version happens to support php-7.2 but also has
new features that might eat your server," then it would be better to add
it alongside a package.mask entry that says "masked for testing" or

Re: [gentoo-user] Is anyone using Scaleway VM hosting?

2017-09-12 Thread Alexey Eschenko

Hi.


is it merely that "images" are copied when they're deployed, whereas 
"snapshots" are resumed and any changes overwrite the old filesystem? Are there any other 
differences?
Yes, like that. Snapshot is backup for one volume. It can be converted 
to the image for creation of new VM's or to the volume and then mounted 
to one of your machines. As far as I understand, "snapshot" is raw data 
which can be used in several ways.



but I lack confidence because this doesn't seem to be explained anywhere
I think it would  be better if you ask Scaleway support too. At least 
you will be sure that they know exactly what they are saying.



That sounds reasonable, but when I go to shutdown the VM and see this scary 
message - https://i.imgur.com/1E02DrP.png
That's one of their user-unfriendly interfaces. "Archive" will not 
destroy your data and make you able to create snapshots. On the other 
hand "Terminate" will actually destroy almost all resources of your VM 
(excluding IP, snapshots and images).



I assume that "Archive" is the same as shutting down my PC - the contents of 
the VM are saved, and I can start it up again later.
AFAIK only for LSSD. I didn't used DSSD and can't tell you anything 
about it.

I don't understand the warning about the DSSD being "totally erased without any 
possible recovery"
Me too. I'd recommend you to create support ticket and then post their 
response about it here.

I don't feel confident in what I'm asking at the moment - I feel like these 
kind of questions ought to be covered in the first pages of a beginners' FAQ, 
but I don't immediately find them on Scaleway's site. I.E. I'm asking dumb 
questions, or I don't know the right questions to ask.
Your questions is pretty relevant and logical. Their FAQ is far from 
ideal. When I was moving my VM's from dedicated server to Scaleway I had 
questions too. Don't hesitate and write them a message. After all you're 
going to pay them money and answering your questions is their work.



I can't help but wondering if I should have spent the extra €2 a month and gone 
for Linode.
I chosen Scaleway only to cut the costs of my not very important 
resources. If you don't mind to pay a little more then it probably may 
be not such a bad idea to use more friendly hosting company if you're 
confident in them.



are customers always billed on an hourly basis?

Yes. You will be billed in the begining of each month.


if I have a have VM that I only spin up when I need it, an hour or two at a 
time, for a few hours a month, am I right in thinking I pay only pennies for 
that?
Not quite. You're billed for many things separately. It's not only CPU 
usage that you pay for. Read this page: 
https://www.scaleway.com/faq/billing/


I thing it can contain answers for most of your questions about billing.

In other words if you stop your VM then you stop paying for CPU but 
don't stop to pay for IP, volumes, snapshots, etc.



Is this charging model common amongst VM hosting providers?
I've seen some other providers with such billing rules. Can't say that 
it's industrial standard but I think it's popular.

Gentoo.

Scaleway provide a Gentoo VM image x86_64-gentoo-latest-2016-04-06_16:15, so I

Having updated the VM to the current tree, I want to make an image of the

any time.

The VM admin interface has sections for "volumes", "snapshots" and "images" - I 
assume they're all kinds of disc images, but I don't think I fully understand the difference.

I think:

• Volumes are active disc images, currently deployed in a VM.
• Snapshots are VM disc images, which are saved once the VM has been shutdown.
• Images are VM disk images which can be used as the basis for new VMs?

If my understanding is correct, I don't really see the difference between a "snapshot" and an 
"image" - is it merely that "images" are copied when they're deployed, whereas 
"snapshots" are resumed and any changes overwrite the old filesystem? Are there any other differences?

I'm used to running Linux on physical hardware, so I tend to think of disc images as being created if I boot

Re: [gentoo-user] Problems with XFCE probably after last update

notification area became available to start without any errors.


I managed to reproduce same behavior on my laptop.

So it can be around 30~40 minutes or so on my i5 machine.
Just it feels strange to install something large that I would probably
never use myself.

I am considering using binary package instead of compiling it myself.

But I am afraid that using firefox-bin package would cause some
dependency problem. I once tried libreoffice-bin, but found it really
painful to resolve dependency issues during system upgrading.

Anyone tried firefox-bin smoothly?

Well, I ran into the same problem with libreoffice-bin *last time*, as
Alexey.

It seems that version number of libreoffice-bin is always smaller than
libreoffice. So dependency issue is always a problem with it.

I noticed firefox-bin only has *usual* packages as dependencies...
By the way what is the difference between compiled and binary firefox
from a user's perspective?

P.S. Someone told me that people in this list do not like top-posting.

Thanks.
Danny

Re: [gentoo-user] Firefox depends on rust??

2017-06-22 Thread Alexey Eschenko
Last time I used libreoffice-bin and firefox-bin, first was really hard 
to satisfy dependencies (I was needed some packages to downgrade to old 
versions incompatible to other packages in my system). But with 
firefox-bin a had no such problem.


But it was "last time".

The reason is in that fact, that many of it's components are in rust.
And since it was possible to dodge it until now, maintainers considered it is
not a way since now.

And, by the way, it is not that many time to build rust, as you think:

 Thu Jun 22 12:34:00 2017 >>> dev-lang/rust-1.16.0
   merge time: 1 hour, 48 minutes.

Than was on 1.9GHz with hardly limited portage (MAKEOPTS="-j5 -l2",
NICENESS=18, ionice -c3, and cgroupped on cpu shares and ram).

So, ~20 mins would be enough on non-limited portage and full power of that i7.

[gentoo-user] xfce-base/xfce4-session-4.13.0 segmentation fault in settings dialog (Bug 621704)

2017-06-20 Thread Alexey Eschenko

Hi.

After writing to Gentoo Bugtracker (621704) I received recommendation to 
use mailing list.


What information do I need to provide?

P.S. I have this problem on two of my Gentoo machines (laptop and desktop).

P.P.S. Just tried to rollback to previous (4.12.1-r1) ebuild and problem 
disappeared in this version. Looks like some sort of regression.
