[gentoo-user] Sun JDK 1.6.0.17 is build only
Hello list, I have installed the SUN JDK 1.6.0.17 but now it seems to be build only. localhost ~ # java-config -L The following VMs are available for generation-2: 1) Blackdown JDK 1.4.2.03 [blackdown-jdk-1.4.2] *) Sun JDK 1.6.0.17 [sun-jdk-1.6] VMs marked as Build Only may contain Security Vulnerabilities and/or be EOL. Gentoo recommends not setting these VMs as either your System or User VM. Please see http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/java.xml#build-only for more information I tried to downgrade to SUN JDK 1.6.0.15 but the problem persists. Manuel Fiorelli

The problem seems to be disappeared after I add the service "consolekit" to the same runlevel of dbus. Note: it seems to me that consolekit was pulled in during the last update, but I forget it... Can this be the right solution? Does the Gnome HOWTO need an update? Manuel Fiorelli

[gentoo-user] Gnome doesn't shutdown
Hello, I noticed that Gnome doesn't shutdown anymore. When I press System/Shutdown and I confirm in the prompt, the desktop is cleared but the wallpaper is still visible and the machine doesn't shutdown. This behavior appeared after an update; I waited for another update, but the problem still persists. I wonder if I make an error during the update or it is a bug affecting the last releases of the desktop manager. I run the version of gnome 2.26.3 Thanks in advance, Manuel Fiorelli
Re: [gentoo-user] Re: Cannot start net.eth0
According to this bug report http://bugs.gentoo.org/148090 there was a problem with my hardware, which was addressed patching the module r8169. Manuel Fiorelli
Re: [gentoo-user] Re: Cannot start net.eth0
2009/8/31 Neal Hogan :
> rc-update?
My "/etc/conf.d/net" is
config_eth0=("dhcp")
and the output of `rc-update show default` is
local | default
net.eth0 | default
netmount | default
I can execute "ifconfig eth0 up" with success, but nothing seems to wok :-(

[gentoo-user] Cannot start net.eth0
I installed Gentoo from a minimal CD on a HP Pavillion dv6. I chose to use genkernel to automatically configure the kernel. Unfortunately, during the boot, it seems that the dhcp client isn't able to contact the DHCP server. Running lspci, I can detect the network adapter: 03:00.0 Ethernet Controller: Realtek Semiconductor CO., Ltd. RTL8111/8168B PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet controller (rev 02) It seems that the system has loaded the module r8169, even if it doesn't match exactly my model. If I start /etc/init.d/net.eth0 manually, I can see * starting eth0 * bringing ip eth0 * dhcp * Running dhclient PING 192.168.0.1 (192.168.0.1) 56(84) bytes of data. --- 192.168.0.1 ping statistics --- 1 packets transmitted, 0 received, +1 errors, 100% packet loss, time 0ms Thanks in advance, Manuel Fiorelli

I found on the web a similar command-line, but I didn't understand the meaining of the traling comma. I think that I will modifiy my ~/.mplayer/config too. Manuel Fiorelli

Assuming that you want to playback a H.264 video, then right command should be mplayer -vo vdpau -vc ffh264vdpau to force the selection of the HW accelerated codec from FFMPEG. Can anyone confirm that? Manuel Fiorelli

Thanks for point out this.

First, I checked that my video card was capable of supporting this new API. Then, I updated the nvidia video driver and recompiled mplayer. For mplayer, make sure to activate the local use flag vdpau. Manuel Fiorelli

It's really strangemay be that revdep-rebuild can help you. http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/gentoolkit.xml#doc_chap4 Try to execute it in pretend mode (with the flag --pretend) and see if it discovers some broken packages.
