These are likely coming in as transitive dependencies from other

updated. Easier said than done obviously.

[gentoo-user] Kernel doesn't accept any initramfs
I've somehow built a kernel that won't accept any initramfs. To elaborate, it hangs in shell in dracut and panicks with a minimal initramfs as if it rejects the initramfs entirely and tries to boot an lvm volume, which of course, fails. Kernel config: http://sprunge.us/tqz3BM The minimal initramfs is described by the file listing http://sprunge.us/GQVbqc and init script http://sprunge.us/YHWY9Z , though this script is of limited use since even with `exec sh` in the first non-comment line, the kernel doesn't follow through. Thoughts? -- AV

I wound up solving this myself by painstakingly looking at a kernel of a working machine and getting all of the network-related options to match. Here is the gist of the changes I had to make to the kernel to get this to work: https://gist.github.com/afalko/034966bf72f5da8070d5829c8aac40e4 I followed it up by rebuilding the kernel like so: MAKEOPTS="-j4" make && make modules && make modules_install && make install && make mo dules_prepare && emerge @module-rebuild Hopefully this might help another poor soul who might get stuck on this. -Andrey On Fri, Nov 16, 2018 at 1:34 AM Andrey F. wrote: > > Hi everyone, > > I have a newly provisioned machine and for the life of me, I can't get > iptables working.

If you remove some file from this directory then it will not be sent until you collect it again by -all option. But I think it's better to patch upstream code or add some option that will satisfy your needs to make the tool perform better by default w/o the need to write a wrapper script. What unwanted files still remain in minimal mode? Thank you.

Please let me know if it still contains some unwanted info in this minimal mode. I'll patch the tool to collect less info by default in 1.5 (you'll need to explicitly set --log-level=maximal to collect mountpoints). Thanks a lot!

Hi, The Linux-Hardware.org database has been divided recently into a set of databases, one per each Linux distro. The one for Gentoo is available at: https://linux-hardware.org/?d=Gentoo Everyone 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 -upload Hardware 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!
Re: [gentoo-user] is anyone using Nouveau graphics driver ?
My experience is the same. Things are super fast with Nouveau, but the random system-wide lock ups were unbearable. I'm a KDE plasma user as well. My last experience was about 6 months ago. I wonder if there is anything we can do to help solve the lockup issues in the long run with Nouveau.

Re: [gentoo-user] Spectre CPU flaws
ALL CPUs are vulnerable to Spectre. The vuln described in your link is Meltdown and only Intel is vulnerable to that. https://meltdownattack.com I don't believe there is a fix for Spectre, but it is also much tougher to mount and attack. Meltdown on the other-hand has a fix that will likely reduce performace, but only needs to be applied for Intel CPUs.

Download stage1, chroot into it, and run
/usr/portage/scripts/bootstrap.sh, then exit the chroot and copy
usr/include recursively.
However, you will still need to do emerge -e @world because the rest
of /usr/include may still be dysfunctional.
Also, -D -N -u is redundant when combined with -e. -e implies -D and
-N -u is pointless when -e is used, since everything is already
included.

While I can make a binpkg for gcc:{4,5,4.6,4.7} or glibc-2.15-r2 on my

This may be a reason for crashing, since the video card dies due to being supplied bad microcode.

Here's the .config of the kernel which crashed when loading the radeon microcode: http://servbox.moshbear.net/r9k-3.3.6-pf-.config.txt On 3.3.6, dmesg did tend to fill up with "uvesafb: mode switch failed (eax=0x34f, err=0). Trying again with default settings." Also, I'm unsure how use of userspace modeseting contributes to X's drm code confusing an opcode for a pointer. xorg.conf is blank since X's hardware detection is sufficiently functional to not require a xorg.conf. > > by the way, did you anything with your ACCEPT_KEYWORDS? > if not, the best thing would be set it simply ="" (and > afterwards --update world, --depclean and revdep-rebuild), > but that's up to you. I use ~amd64 because I like having everything be recent. Otherwise, it tends to feel a bit like a fast version of debian. That, and 99.9% functionality is enough. I've been able to fix almost all issues that arise by means of google - this one is simply proving to be tricky.

I thought mkisofs _was_ an authoring software for data isos. Experimental results have shown that mkisofs uses alpha-sort instead of inode, directory-order, ctime, or mtime sort. Is this required as per ISO 9660? Also, is there a way to enable a debug mode so that mkisofs states Dir X: File Y: LBA Z for each file?

[gentoo-user] Gcc bug 1773
While gentoo is not solaris 8, are there any packages for which setting __cplusplus to 199711L would break compiles? If there isn't, I'm going to hack the patches for 1773 together and include it on the bugzilla as a backport from gcc 4.7.0 so that it could become part of the gcc-gentoo patchset for 4. Also, the C++11 __cplusplus revision for gcc-4.5, gcc-4.6. (4.4's c++0x is rather incomplete; 4.5 and 4.6 are better, because it's closer to somewhat-ish instead of partial. -- m0shbear

Was your vobcopy line $vobcopy -i /path/to/mountpoint -n ${TITLE_NO}
-l -O ${MOVIE}_${TITLENO}.vob ?
My ffmpeg lines for dvd to mkv:
2.0 audio:
for a in 1 2; do schedtool -B -e nice ffmpeg -threads 4 -i $file.vob
-pass $a -vcodec libx264 -b 800k -deinterlace -acodec libfaac -ac 2
-ab 192k -y $file.mkv ;done
5.1:
for a in 1 2; do schedtool -B -e nice ffmpeg -threads 4 -i $1.vob
-pass $a -vcodec libx264 -x264opts preset=slower -b 800k -deinterlace
-acodec libfaac -ac 6 -ab 440k -y $1.mkv ;done
I use schedtool and nice to keep ffmpeg from hogging the cpu.

Downscale hd to 480p and de-interlace DVDs and other 480i content.
720x480 will look pretty good on a 1024x600 (WSVGA) screen.

Unless you need hardware 3d, fglrx is too much effort. More bitchy than nvidia, too. (Unselect 'Use OpenGL' v2 in Destkop Effects->Advanced to keep kwin from crashing). Also, LXDE looks prettier than KDE4 without OpenGL, and XRender disables half the plugins because they require OpenGL. A prime example of this is the desktop cube. -- m0shbear

The zone file was 640 root:root. It should've been 640 root:named.

No clue, as logging isn't yet enabled. However, chechzone says that all is fine.

[gentoo-user] SERVFAIL with bind; problems in named.conf?
For bind, I have the following as named.conf:
acl "xfer" { none; };
acl "trusted" { 127.0.0.0/8; ::1/128; };
options {

pid-file "/var/run/named/named.pid";

listen-on port 53 { 127.0.0.1; 192.168.1.0/10; EXTERNAL_IP; };
};
include "/etc/bind/rndc.key";
controls { inet 127.0.0.1 port 953 allow { 127.0.0.1/32; ::1/128; }
keys { "rndc-key"; }; };
zone "." in { type hint; file "/var/bind/root.cache"; };

The zone file does not have any errors.
Any reasons as to why "dig @127.0.0.1 moshbear.net" returns SERVFAIL?

Should one use the block size of the drive? Speed improvement. If you're doing a backup of a rather large disk, I duggest piping to bzip2 or gzip. Unless the free space is random padding, even the slightest compression will be more efficient, space-wise, than the raw file. The big problem is bzip2 -9, because you only get ~2.5 MB/s compression speed.

[gentoo-user] mplayer id3v2
Is there a patch for mplayer (1.0-rc4) that adds id3v2 support? Googling the mailinglist archives, it was said that the previous implementation had vulns and was hence scrapped, but it sucks not having it. There are unofficial forks of mplayer which have id3v2, but there's no ebuild, in layman or otherwise, wherein mplayer has id3v2, via patch or in tarball. -- 001100 Andrey "m05hbear" Vul 010010 00 andrey at moshbear dot net 11 andrey dot vul at gmail 101101 110011

[gentoo-user] sense code: driver or disc at fault?
I keep on getting sense error 2/30/05 when trying to burn the livecd on my new dvd burner, and I've tried with various discs. Is the burner at fault? Google isn't of much help.
[gentoo-user] ramdisk for lm_sensors and gimps
Does the current minimal install cd have a ramdisk driver so that i can extract the stage3 tarball to it and emerge lm_sensors and gimps onto it? I want to make sure my OCed system won't cause bad compiles so I'm going to gimps aka prime95 it for 48h :) DDR1066's timings are a bit high at 200;1:2.66, so I'm going 960 MHz to have both higher speed and less lag. Sadly, POST starts to have issues at FSB=250MHz, so I've toned it down to 230 MHz. It's still above 200 MHz, so I want to be sure that both CPU and RAM are safe. Also, if k10temp isn' t included on the cd, to which kernel version should I compile it as a module*, or need I remaster with modified kernel? * and insert into the iso as /misc/k10temp.ko and insmod it as needed -- 001100 Andrey "m05hbear" Vul 010010 011110 andrey at moshbear dot net 11 andrey dot vul at gmail 101101 4163039923 110011
[gentoo-user] login fail after resuming from suspend
I forgot, is it a problem with consolekit or polkit that causes the
login system to hang after resuming from acpi suspend?
And is there a solution, apart from saving all work before standby and
doing {Magic}+{R,S,E}?

[gentoo-user] Get RPC: Program/version mismatch if I set OPTS_RPC_MOUNTD and OPTS_RPC_STATD in /etc/conf.d/nfs
Hi everyone, I am getting a strange error when I try to mount my nfs partitions. In /etc/conf.d/nfs I have: OPTS_RPC_MOUNTD="-p 32767" OPTS_RPC_STATD="-p 32765 -o 32766" I set these two options so that I can use nfs with iptables. If don't set these two variables, I wind up not being able to mount the nfs partitions because the ports for statd and mountd are selected at random. With the variables set, I get the following error: # mount -o vers=3 10.1.1.1:/nfs /mnt/temp -v mount: no type was given - I'll assume nfs because of the colon mount.nfs: timeout set for Mon Nov 8 20:47:30 2010 mount.nfs: trying text-based options 'vers=3,addr=10.1.1.1' mount.nfs: prog 13, trying vers=3, prot=6 mount.nfs: trying 10.1.1.1 prog 13 vers 3 prot TCP port 2049 mount.nfs: prog 15, trying vers=3, prot=17 mount.nfs: trying 10.1.1.1 prog 15 vers 3 prot UDP port 32767 mount.nfs: portmap query retrying: RPC: Program/version mismatch mount.nfs: prog 15, trying vers=3, prot=6 mount.nfs: trying 10.1.1.1 prog 15 vers 3 prot TCP port 32767 mount.nfs: portmap query failed: RPC: Program/version mismatch mount.nfs: Operation not permitted Does anyone know why this is happening? How can I make nfs and iptables play nice?

[gentoo-user] kdm and pam issues after resume
Upon resuming my laptop from standby, kdm's screen locker does
nothing, and /bin/login lags a lot before "Password:" comes up.
Googling has led me to think that this might be a consolekit issue, as
the syslog has "cannot create /var/lib/kdm-4.5: Permission denied"
lines, in addition to the lag going away after Alt+Sysrq+{R,S,E,I} and
reappearing after running init 3 to restart the killed processes.
The lag in console mode is kinda like this:
agetty
\- login [lag]
\-\- bash [lag]
Apart from rebooting, are there any real solutions (apart from k-9ing
the screen locker)? bugs.gentoo/295376,295799 are kinda vague.

Apparently, some subtle data corruption was invisible by fsck -p but noticed by fsck -f. A corrupt inode does explain why the directory was somehow 555 in behavior.
