It's unfortunately indicative how this forum is apparently regarded by Funtoo's Admin staff. Not everyone wants Discord. I strongly despise "social" media for profit mass personal data harvesting platforms. If you don't pay, YOU are the currency  🙄

I forgot I already have a account, and re-signed up for one.

[1] · My user (and apparently, a few of others) are stuck at zero post count for some reason. EDIT: making my sixth? (not sure; didn't count) post now gave me a post count of one. What the...

[2] · The post writing interface appears to lack a switch to disable the WYSIWYG mode and go to plain-text mode which allows to manipulate the whichever underlying markup language directly. I consider this very much a bug.

[3] · Posts within a thread lack post numbers (i.e. numbers showing which post it chronologically is in a given thread.) This makes referencing a post in larger threads tad nontrivial if wanting to avoid outright quoting the said post.

[4] · "Newlines are on sale – buy one, get one free!" i.e. adding an explicit newline in the text produces double line spacing AKA "reddit spacing", which is not always desired, yet some way to avoid this, when needed, is not exposed. Solving #2 would indirectly solve this one, I suppose.

[5] · There is no way to either inline "code" or explicitly switch to a fixed-width font for a part of text, either witch are used to denote e.g. a command being referenced, which would be rather useful knowing the context of this forum. This too be would likely be indirectly solved if #2 gets solved.

In the following example capture everything installed within the "source environment" that is related sys-devel/gcc (4.4.5 is present on the system) is captured in a single archive named gcc-4.4.5.tbz2 located in /usr/portage/packages/sys-devel:

# quickpkg sys-devel/gcc

If you need to recompile a package instead of archiving an already deployed version (and of course without installing it on your "source environment"), just do:

# emerge --buildpkgonly sys-devel/gcc

I wonder if RECOMPILE A PACKAGE and ARCHIVING AN ALREADY DEPLOYED VERSION should be switched around the INSTEAD OF to read something like:

In the following example capture everything installed within the "source environment" that is related sys-devel/gcc (4.4.5 is present on the system) is captured in a single archive named gcc-4.4.5.tbz2 located in /usr/portage/packages/sys-devel:

# quickpkg sys-devel/gcc

If you would rather archive an already deployed version (perhaps useful for later) and restore from that archive instead of simply recompiling the package(s), just do:

# emerge --buildpkgonly sys-devel/gcc

You wouldn't want to install the archive content into your working chroot "source environment" because that's where the archive content came from.

I also wonder if the --include-config y arguments to quickpkg would be a good idea, as palica has suggested to solve my current toolchain issues. I leave it to more knowledgable people to decide what is best.

I was trying to password recover my (admittedly very old) account 

and got this (see image)

thanks!

I'm not an expert on Funtoo so I need a documentation to learn.

example of few questions: 

- how can I add a make.conf modificated to new stage

- change the python version

- change the gcc version and recompile the toolchain 

I really appreciate if someone create a article with more details about Meto. 

thank you.

Any ideas?

The subarch pages at https:://funtoo.org each say that there are no downloadable files for that subarch.

/var/tmp/portage/x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-355.11-r2/work/kernel/nvidia/nv-procfs.c: In function ?nv_procfs_read_registry?:
 

/var/tmp/portage/x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-355.11-r2/work/kernel/nvidia/nv-procfs.c:363:5: error: void value not ignored as it ought to be

It seems that if I run: genkernel --kernel-config=.config-0 --menuconfig all

and if I make some changes via the menu to the kernel configuration and save the configuration as: config-1

then, it seems to me, after I exit the configuration menu w/o more menu changes the .config is a copy of .config-0 and not .config-1.

I had thought that my menu changes would be part of the kernel about to be compiled, but it seems to not be the case. It seems the original configuration from the file specified by --kernel-config is used regardless.

Is that actually happening and if so, is that appropriate?

BTW, the funtoo documentation on compiling a kernel is really clear. So is the install documentation. Thank you.

Bonus question: know why my desktop settings get screwed up from compiling a new kernel to the same old kernel names under same old /boot? If that is the case. I have no idea. I don't understand how anyone can like making a linux distro and do it this well. The learning curve has spots without adequate documentation that are unique singleton show stoppers. (After two days trying to get clock="local" in /etc/conf.d/hwclock to work, I gave in and did clock="UTC"; can't remember the last time I booted the eeky Wyndoz.)

Anyway, I'm more careful now by running genkernel twice just to get the .config I want (and I could use make menuconfig but I now have an affinity with genkernel, especially since my attempt with raw make did not mount, and not investigating either, need to solve the intermitent exit Xorg/desktop dark screen lockup and get eth0 as a backup to wlan0 and then work on my computer lol).

Bonus, bonus: I think it is bizarre that the ethernet driver Realtek 8168 comes as package r8168 and the (newer?) driver Realtek 8169 is available in the kernel configuration. Maybe politics? Maybe the package driver is not good enough in quality to be in the kernel? I'm gonna give it a try. dmesg is happy with r8168, (which required that I get rid of 8169 for real, or at least according to /usr/src/linux/.config that had to be there) and that's as far I as am right now.

Best wishes to you in the new year!

ok, after I recompile my system with Hardened the plymouth doesn't work anymore and show me that message when I try init it.

plymouthd: symbol lookup error: plymouthd: undefined symbol: ply_boot_splash_add_text_display

I'm looking for somthing but till now nothing.

I have a backup of my kernel(hardened) and initramfs before I compiled my system to Hardened with plymouth and works normal on boot, but now even I generate a new gernkernel with plymouth doesn't work. 

someone could give a hand on it, I really want use the system more secure with a plymouth splash. 

Thanks

from a 3 / 4 months, after using genkernel i must run a "make clean" in /usr/stc/linux.

This also if i use the --postclear or if i set (boolean) in genkernel.conf POSTCLEAR="1"

Once terminated, i've with df -h 26 GiB used in filesystem root

Anyone know where I can find this?

Thanks.

Grab it while you can HERE!

Is it just me or did we revert back to Emerald 0.8.8

Reported it HERE

I didn't know this section existed. It could have saved me another post if I knew it existed and where to find it.

Thanks.

During install emerge is running but I can't launch anything.

Rebooted and just get a blinking cursor.

Switched to tty2 and launched XFCE and when it starts the panel blinks for about .25 seconds, vanishes for 4, rinse repeat.

Restored drive.

Tried to update system.

Exactly the same things all over again.

A bit annoyed at the fact that installing an app can zonk the system...an office app of all things.

So...WTF to do when funtoo greets you with the blinking cursor?

I also couldn't install GIMP. Some error message. Have no clue how to handle this shat since I recently arrived from Arch and don't know jack about Portage.

Most of the info I find in searches is discombobulated and/or outdated.

Any help would be appreciated.

Today I got serious about it and started removing lines from iptables one by one to find it.  Luckily it was line 2 in INPUT, deleted that and funtoo.org is accessible.  here is what it says:

Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT 0 packets, 0 bytes)
num   pkts bytes target     prot opt in     out     source               destination
2     195M  201G IP4BOGONS  all  --  !lo    *       0.0.0.0/0            0.0.0.0/0

Which goes to:

Chain IP4BOGONS (1 references)
 pkts bytes target     prot opt in     out     source               destination         
 883K  102M RETURN     all  --  *      *       10.0.0.0/8           0.0.0.0/0           
   18  1008 RETURN     all  --  *      *       172.16.0.0/12        0.0.0.0/0           
55910   25M RETURN     all  --  *      *       192.168.0.0/16       0.0.0.0/0           
 109K   25M DROP       all  --  *      *       0.0.0.0/0            0.0.0.0/0            match-set fullbogons-ipv4 src

I have a cronjob that downloads a list several times a day from http://www.team-cymru.org/Services/Bogons/fullbogons-ipv4.txt and adds them to an ipset list.  It's a list of known "bogons", bogus ip addresses that are being used for...who knows, nothing good for me.  As you can see anything that matches that list doesn't get in the door.

So my next step was:

ipset list fullbogons-ipv4|grep "172.97.103.36"

Nope, no match.  Then I went to http://www.team-cymru.org/Services/Bogons/fullbogons-ipv4.txt and looked for 172.97.103.36 there.  Nope, ain't there either.  But still, for some reason it's apparently matching something somewhere on that list.  I can't explain it, but there it is.  Zero problems with any other ip's.  I've solved this for now by putting in a RETURN above the drop for 172.97.103.36, but I wanted to make the devs aware of it.  I've been using this iptables setup for a couple of years, this is the 1st time anything like this has happened.  I see on the front page of the wiki that Drobbins has been migrating containers to that address, the timing matches this problem.
