  1. SOLVED Rosegarden update failed

    emerge_info_rosegarden-17.12.1-media_kitemerge_pqv_rosegarden-17.12.1-media_kitcomplete_build_log

    Beguinner here in Funtoo !

    I was able to install Rosegarden Rosegarden-21.1 thanks to the gracious help of cardinal in [URL]https://forums.funtoo.org/topic/5027-solved-compiling-rosegarden-fails/[/URL]

    Today I did:    [CODE]

    chroot # ego sync
    chroot # emerge -auDN @world

    [/CODE]

    and got an error message after mention of a long list of errors during the install of  rosegarden 17.12.1 which would have been the 50th package installed under the update.

    I am assuming, but not sure, that the remaining 6 packages were not installed.

    I am enclosing the last lines in the output of
    [CODE]emerge -auDN @world[/CODE]

    as well as the relevant part of that of

    [CODE]emerge --depclean[/CODE]

    which I issued immediately after, and the log info required..

    I suspect that there is a simple explanation to this, related to the way I achieved the initial installation of Rosegarden-21.1.

    But I am not able to sort this out by myself.

    I think the solution may be something like repeating the part of cardinal's solution to the above mentioned thread - up to the rebuilding of the manifest - and then either update rosegarden  or build/install it again, it should not be a big job.

    But this is all guessing on my part and I would not know how to consider the eventual choice   between updating and re-emerging/building/installing.

  5. SOLVED - Compiling Rosegarden Fails

    in Installation Help

    Posted · Edited by fredmyra
    SOLVED!

    I installed Funtoo_Gnome in my Fujitsu Esprimo, but I could not get used to Gnome's functionality - I have been using XFCE for most of my Linux live.  So I installed the Xfce desktop and proceeded to install  the programs I needed. It went perfectly with almost all programs: LibreOffice, Audacity, Firefox, Musescore, Gimp, VLC  and a few minor others, with the exception of Rosegarden.

    I then tried to install Rosegarden on my Lifebook's Funtoo, originally installed with XFCE and got the same error with minor differences in the output.

    I am enclosing the files mentioned in the emerge message for both instances.

    Although I am just as depending on Rosegarden as I am on XFCE,  this is no urgent matter. I still have alternative options to run Rosegarden whenever I need.   But I will love to run Rosegarden on my Funtoos sometime.

  6. SOLVED - Unable to use Swedish keymap under Xfce

    After much searching the confortable solution I found was in https://docs.slackware.com/howtos:window_managers:keyboard_layout_in_xfce :

    Note: Also you can set your keyboard layouts manually, by: 

    setxkbmap -option grp:switch,grp:alt_shift_toggle

    I enclose a summary of tips I found through my searching, hoping that it may be useful

  7. SOLVED - Unable to use Swedish keymap under Xfce

    in General Help

    Posted · Edited by fredmyra
    solved

    I have just installed Funtoo on my Fujitsu Esprimo E and during post installation have been trying to  use the swedish keymap, under XFCE,  without success.  I suspected it was due to my limited experience, but after googling a longer while I got the impression that many have had similar problems.

    It works well in the console though -  "keymap=sv/latin1"  in/etc/conf.d/keymaps..

    My /etc/console.gen says: 

    en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8
C.UTF-8 UTF-8
sv_SE.UTF-8 UTF-8
pt_BR.UTF-8 UTF-8
zh_CN.UTF-8 UTF-8

      

    eselect locale list
Available targets for the LANG variable:
  [1]   C
  [2]   C.utf8
  [3]   POSIX
  [4]   en_US.utf8
  [5]   pt_BR.utf8
  [6]   sv_SE.utf8 *
  [7]   zh_CN.utf8
  [ ]   (free form)

    Settings > Keyboard show Swedish as first choice,  "Use system default" is ON.

    The apparently best answer I found was on https://forums.funtoo.org/topic/4879-polish-locales-it-might-be-helpful/#comment-17030 .

    I did not dare tampering with make.conf, as advised on that thread, so that may be something to consider. Otherwise I think my settings correspond to what it is avised there. 

    I tried login out of Desktop and then login out again from console and login in and starting Xfce, again but no effect..  Same for rebooting. Hmmmmm!!!!! ....  I did NOT try shutting down ????

    But now I will post this, as I don't know how to save a post.  Will try shutting down immediately after posting and if it works will report immediately thereafter.

  8. Is it possible to install Rosegarden ubder Funtoo?

    in General Help

    Posted

    I have been using Funtoo on a trial basis for several weeks  and I feel great about it. I am a frequent user of Rosegarden and  must have it on a distro If am to establish  it as my daily-use distro. I tried to emerge it but  <emerge --search> did not find it. Is it possible to install it somehow ? Perhaps compiling from sources ????

    I have very little experience of /building/compiling but I have had success most of the few times I tried, and recently I compiled Rosegarden under Slackware Live. In some of my distros which don´t offer MuseScore I have been able to download  its app version and run it with success, but I don't think Rosegarden is offered in app format. Although  I am not familiar with Flatpak and Snap I  have been able to get some program  (forgot which one) from one of them but I am under the impression that Funtoo does not use them (???).

    Thanks for a nice distro !

  10. Can i have Funtoo in a multiboot set-up ?

    in Installation Help

    Posted

    I have succeeded in my first attempt to install Funtoo. And I have also managed to install another Linux distro in dual boot.

    Would it be  possible to install it on a machine which has already several other Linux distros on it ?

    I  am asking this question because I am not sure about the boot partition. 

    I believe that it might be possible to  install without a boot partition, but I have no idea what that would really mean and imply. I Fike funtoo and I think that in time it might become my preferred or "main" distribution.  I had Sabayon as my preferred distro untill its end. It was perfect for me.  AT the moment I have Funtoo running from an external HD, but I would like to have it on the internal HD of my multiboot machine also.

  12. SOLVED :My first Funtoo boot resulted in a ModemManager error message

    If the computer doesn't connect to the internet using a cellular data modem disable modemmanager USE flag so it can be removed.

    In /etc/make.conf add this: 

    
USE="-modemmanager"

    Remove modemmanager: 

    
emerge -Ca modemmanager

    Rebuild packages now that the modemmanager USE has been disabled:
      

    
emerge -avuDN @world

    Thanks cardinal! I  understand this and it sounds good. But I will try it tomorrow, ´cause now I am having trouble concentrating. Too Tired.
