Re: [gentoo-user] Portage world update fails because of masked beryl-plugins
Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. napisał(a):
e.g.:
$ grep KEYWORD beryl-plugins-0.1.3.ebuild
KEYWORDS=~amd64 ~ppc ~ppc64 ~x86
So, you can simply find the KEYWORDS variable in the ebuild you are trying
to use and add one of those keywords to your package.keywords. Of course,
if you do anything other than ~${ARCH}, where ${ARCH} is your current
architecture and it breaks, you get to keep both pieces.
To my surprise, the output is:
KEYWORDS=
There are... No keywords? I'm puzzled. I'm using x86 architecture.
Should I then edit the ebuild and manually add my arch to KEYWORD
variable? I'm just guessing - maybe it will help somehow.

Re: [gentoo-user] Xgl and direct rendering or 'Would you like Xorg or Xgl, sir?'
Albert Hopkins napisał(a): Then you probably don't want to use GDM or any other DM as they are primarily designed to manage displays that are already selected. What you want is more of a chicken-and-egg issue for a display manager. What you likely need is something to be run from the command line (i.e. *before* X is started). startx (or xinit) are perfect for this. No need to write any fancy program, it can pretty much do what you're asking: $ startx /path/to/program/that/needs/X.org -- /usr/bin/X $ startx -- /usr/bin/Xgl Thanks, now it works flawlessly. I can easily launch a slick desktop with Xgl and Beryl, and if I require direct rendering I simply log out and launch Xorg. Now I'll try to find a clever solution and make this method a little bit more automatic. We'll see what I'll be able to find around the web. Thanks once again.

Installing kde-base/kde-i18n with pl among my LINGUAS wasn't helpful, however I've noticed something interesting. I entered Amarok's setting window and in the Appearance tab I found an option allowing me to change the default font. Moreover the font chooser dialog allows me to check whether the font contains diacritical characters. I've chosen a suitable font, which displayed all those chars correctly and clicked Apply. Most surprisingly, part of the fonts have changed and begun to display everything correctly (e.g. the context window and the playlist), but the main menu on the top still consists of those rectangles and I am not able to change its font.

Re: [gentoo-user] Xgl and direct rendering or 'Would you like Xorg or Xgl, sir?'
As far as I can see there is no chance neither to get my Radeon to cooperate with open source driver nor to turn on AIGLX with my fglrx, at least at the moment of writing. It's a pity, but allow me then to return to the secondary topic of this thread. Is it possible to enable some kind of a chooser which would allow me to choose whether I'd like to launch Xgl or Xorg? While working on my /usr/share/gdm/default.conf I've spotted a server called 'chooser'. Could you tell me what is this server doing and could it be a solution for my problem? Of course the choice doesn't have to be done in GDM. It could be a tiny bash script or a simple C++ application run in the default runlevel which would ask me for pressing a specific key to run Xorg - otherwise it will run Xgl - for example changing the line 0=Standard in the file I've mentioned above. Have you got ideas or do I have to write such an app by myself?

[gentoo-user] Gnome, KDE applications and diacritical characters
Hi everyone, Despite being a Gnome fan, I've been using few KDE apps, such as Amarok and Kile. I've emerged them on my Gentoo desktop with a Gnome environment. Unfortunately I'm not able to force a KDE apps to display Polish diacritical characters (e.g. ć, ł, ę). All I can see instead of them are small rectangles. I've tried to use qtconfig to change fonts but it hasn't solve the problem. In my USE flag unicode is disabled. I'm using ISO-8859-2 encoding.

[gentoo-user] Dependency info is missing and /sbin/depscan.sh is not helpful
Hi folks, I've been updating my system recently (emerge -u world). I've stopped the update process with ctrl-c in order to turn the PC off. After relaunching in the middle of the runlevel 1, right after configuring kernel parameters, updating environment , cleaning /var/lock, /var/run and /tmp, I've been informed that: Dependency info is missing! Please run # /sbin/depscan.sh to fix this. To make the impression even bigger each line has got a red star in front of it. This error is displayed twice, than system is entering runlevel 3, displays the same message once more and allows me to log in: This is (none).unknown_domain (Linux i686 kernel version, etc.) (none) login: I logged in as the root and gave depscan.sh a try. No output has been shown. I checked the output of '/sbin/depscan.sh --help' and accordingly to information given I tried: # /sbin/depscan.sh -u * Caching service dependencies ... sh: /bin/mktemp: No such file or dir * Failed to create temporary cache! bash: /var/lib/init.d/depcache: No such file or dir sh: /bin/mktemp: No such file or dir * Failed to create temporary cache! gawk: /lib/rcscripts/awk/gendepends.awk:506: fatal error: expression for redirection has a 0 lenght string * Failed to cache service dependencies The one but last line is displayed in Polish so what you can see above is my hope-it-is-verbatim translation into English. I've tried to 'emerge mktemp' but I realised soon that I'm offline and I cannot '/etc/init.d/net.eth0 restart' because I get the same error - Dependency info is missing!.

If you use the CONFIG_RADEON_DRM kernel module, you also need to use the ati or radeon x11 driver. If your use the fglrx out-of-tree, esclavitud kernel module (at least I think there's a kernel module by this name) you'll alsa need to use the fglrx x11 driver. You seem to be running into a simple misconfiguration at this point. I'm sorry, I've forgotten to modify this line while attaching xorg.conf. When I was trying to launch Xorg with radeon driver I obviously commented out the fglrx driver and uncommented radeon driver's line - inversely to what I have actually attached. So it should be: Driver radeon # Driver fglrx And to make it even more precise - while entering default init level fglrx is NOT loaded and radeon is loaded.

Jan Stępień napisał(a): Fair enough. Firstly I'll check whether AIGLX will be working with my video card, and in case of failure I'll give xlaunch a shot. I've reemerged Xorg adding aiglx to USE variable, modified /etc/X11/xorg.conf (actually I've been following these instructions: http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_AIGLX) and tried to launch Xorg with AIGLX. Unfortunately efforts were fruitless. Accordingly to article mentioned above I have to enable composite in xorg.conf: Section Extensions Option Composite Enable EndSection After launching X server with this setting it results in using Mesa instead of fglrx, which means NO direct rendering, as proved by glxinfo. Beryl cannot be launched because of lack of DRI. If I turn composite off, the X server is driven by fglrx, which gives me direct rendering and Beryl's refusal to start because of lack of composite extension. It's all quite suspicious, taking into account fact that Radeons are listed at the website above as video cards able of running AIGLX. But maybe only on FOSS drivers...? Afterwards I've downloaded xlaunch. When trying to launch an app (in this case armyops) starting xlaunch in a terminal in an existing X server the screen blacks out, probably trying to launch new X session and suddenly restarts GDM, meanwhile killing my original session. I've also tried to use xlaunch in a text console having my previous X server turned on. Results are the same. Have you got any suggestions?

Have you checked your /var/log/Xorg.*.log files? They should reflect

Got it! Somewhere around 92% of /var/log/Xorg.94.log, which is logging
Xgl, I've found:
(EE) fglrx(0): Hardware has already been locked.
(II) fglrx(0): [drm] removed 1 reserved context for kernel

(WW) fglrx(0): * 2D acceleraton available (MMIO) *
(WW) fglrx(0): * no 3D acceleration available*

Hardware's locked? Do they mean that I can render only one X server
simultaneously? They must be kidding...
And near the end of this file:
(EE) AIGLX: Screen 0 is not DRI capable
No doubt about it.
What's also interesting at the 96th per cent of Xorg.0.log, standard
server's log, I've got:
(EE) AIGLX error: dlopen of /usr/lib/dri/fglrx_dri.so failed
(/usr/lib/dri/fglrx_dri.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file
or directory)
(EE) AIGLX: reverting to software rendering
Did portage forgotten about something while emerging ati-drivers? Or
maybe it's my mistake to force AIGLX to start ('Option AIGLX true'
in xorg.conf)?
Also, one other option may be to try the opensource radeon driver.
You can lookup your card's pci ID (use lspci lspci -n) in
/usr/src/linux/drivers/char/drm/drm_pciids.h to see if it is supported
or not. If so, you should be able to get aiglx working with
opensource drivers.
Found it. In the section radeon_PCI_IDS I've found the following line:
{0x1002, 0x4152, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, CHIP_RV350}, \
Please verify my plan. I should recompile my kernel with device drivers
- character devices - radeon built in (or as a module) and in
xorg.conf set driver to radeon. Am I right?

[gentoo-user] Xgl and direct rendering or 'Would you like Xorg or Xgl, sir?'
Hi everyone, I've been using Xgl for quite a long time without any serious problems. Recently I've tried to launch America's Army (emerged one, version 2.5.0) on my box, but... ~ armyops Xlib: extension XFree86-DRI missing on display :1.0. Cheat protection disabled open /dev/[sound/]mixer: No such file or directory WARNING: ALC_EXT_capture is subject to change! Either GL_EXT_bgra or glDrawRangeElements not supported- bailing out. History: Exiting due to error Being quite disappointed I verified the first line of the output above with glxinfo. And so... ~ glxinfo name of display: :1.0 Xlib: extension XFree86-DRI missing on display :1.0. display: :1 screen: 0 direct rendering: No snip It sounds rather unbelievably. I've got running Xgl with Beryl's dazzling animations and I'm informed that despite having over 4000 FPS on glxgears I have not got direct rendering. What the...? Few days later I've accidentally launched Xorg (using startx script) instead of my Xgl. When I entered my old, two-dimension desktop I thought that trying America's Army over here, without Xgl, could tell me something more (i.e. that something's wrong with my configuration or whatever else). So I typed armyops in the terminal... And surprisingly enough the game has started. Furthermore, the framerate was quite satisfactory. After this quite long introduction I'll finally get to the point. I have got two questions. 1. Is it possible to enable somehow direct rendering on Xgl, therefore allowing OpenGL apps to work as ought to. 2. If the answer to the first questions is NO, then is there a method of choosing which Xserver to use? Can I choose whether I'd like to launch Xorg or Xgl? Or maybe I can even enable such choice in GDM login screen? If you need any further information regarding by box please don't hesitate to ask. Any support would be highly appreciated.

It works fine, as long as you can tell that Radeon works fine on Linux; I haven't got any experience with NVidia's hardware. Returning to the topic, I haven't got an idea neither whether Aiglx works with my Radeon nor why I'm not using Aiglx. When I've started to play with fancy 3D servers I was using Debian, and I found an article describing quite precisely how to get Xgl running on unstable Debian. Worked fine, so I've found Xgl a nice choice. Am I mistaken?
