Hi!
At this point, I'd almost trust NPTL more. After following this thread,
it seems you have the knowhow and motivation to fix buggy LT apps for
NPTL if they break.
Fixing buggy LT apps should be relatively easy, if they are buggy due to
the current limitations of LT. If they are buggy
I started with 2.6.0 mm (SMP + Preempt seems to work fine so far ;-).
Do you think that's OK?
Seems ok this side - that is if you are talking about the combination
of smp and preempt.
I meant wrt NPTL...
Loic.

A thing that I'm really missing is the gentoo counterpart to the
FreeBSD Handbook. Or... Did I missed it? ISTM that one has to search
accross the web to be able to use gentoo. First, it's extremly time
consuming. And second, that's not acceptable for business purpose
(although for
Hi!
The next point I'm eager to try is NPTL. I would like to have the

version available, namely 0.55 (the v0.28 available with glibc-2.3.2-r1
is too buggy for me). For this, I need to install glibc-2.3.2-r3.
How should I proceed? From my understanding, a simple emerge glibc
Hi Collins!
Quick answer. If you emerge generic-package-name, portage finds the
appropriate version and all dependancies. If you emerge specific-
package-name, you are responsible for finding any dependancies that
can't be met automatically and resolving them yourself. If looks like

Hi!
The docs section of gentoo.org is huge. Portage docs are there too.
I was probably getting tired yesterday in searching accross the web..
I missed the Portage Manual (I read the Portage User Guide, though).
Your mail invited me to look at the gentoo.org more closely.
Thanks!

Hardware? That's a really funny...
So funny I split some knuckle skin on the stupid machine!
I see...
In one of my system, I have two set of glibcs: the official, and
my customized version. I use a symlink to switch between
Hi!
Can someone describe in a few sentences why it is so dangerous to
install a newer version of glibc.
In a few words. Everything in your system depends on glibc. Normally,
one should emerge world if glibc is updated.
IOW, it means that all utilities/programs use glibc (the DL version).
nptl 0.55 is in a KEYWORDS=-* masked version of glibc
According to the GF5 FAQ on the gentoo forum, -arch means:
doesn't work for architecture arch. Does -* means:
doesn't work for ANY architecture?
it needs kernel 2.5* (preferrably 2.6 to build)
2.6 is testing, bloody edge and prone to
I do not know if I am just lucky, but late 2.5's and now 2.6's runs fine
for me (ok, so I usually only use -bk's, and I keep an eye on LKML for
patches ... ).
I started with 2.6.0 mm (SMP + Preempt seems to work fine so far ;-).
Do you think that's OK?
I have been using nptl since nov/dec
