GREEEEAAAAAT !!!!!! Magic Pytony !!!!! I'm writing with my smartphone as router wifi :P Still I do not understand why I had tried to put them in the blacklist but it was not working. Syntax error or it was useful to disable the modules of other Broadcom devices in menuconfig? However you're great Thank You very very mutch :) :) :) Also the tethering works fine. Thank You Magician :) :) :)

Ok; installing this ebuild i obtain : * Messages for package net-wireless/broadcom-sta-6.30.223.248-r3: * BCMA: If you insist on building this, you must blacklist it! * SSB: If you insist on building this, you must blacklist it! * MAC80211: If you insist on building this, you must blacklist it! * Please check to make sure these options are set correctly. * Failure to do so may cause unexpected problems. But in my lsmod they don't compares: Vaio-i5 ~ # lsmod | grep -i "bcma\|ssb\|mac80211" Vaio-i5 ~ # Then why insert them in blacklist ? :unsure: I've also edited the kernel config files disabling all options containing BCMA, SSB and MAC80211.

What can i do to solve ? PS: lspci -k Thanx :)

I've decided to use SuperGrub2 CD for booting Funtoo Ciao :)

Hi ... I tryed to execute a dual boot with Funtoo & windows 8 on a Sony Vaio (that is for my friend) using the commands exposed in the wiky but without results. I've inserted in boot.conf the lines relative at win 8. But .... the trouble is before the boot-update. I don't know haw I can solve thank You!

In effect .... I wrote also this: # echo "sys-kernel/debian-sources">>/etc/portage/package.mask The other informations (excuse me if "redundant" i wrote for a way to use gentoo-sources with genkernel..... but if you want you can't use genkernel but the /usr must be a subdirectory of / (root) included in the root itsels; otherwise will be necessary the initramfs or initrd; considering you want to generate a custom kernel without intramfs, in this case You'll must set as a "built-in modules" to make you machine functional the "foundamental modules for your machine; then you must know perfectly your hardware and the modules associated with more important peripherals (e.g. HDD o SSD amd others. The initramfs containing modules "not built in", it simplifies things at the level of the kernel configuration and choice to fill out a form built in or put in / lib / modules / If my explanation is not accurate, Please correct me ..... I have many things to learn, a lot to understand in a more specific, but the will is there :) If You decide to use a custom kernel without initrams, use the "jobserver" with make (n? threads + 1) For example I've a i7 then 4 cores but 8 threads. then my jobservermust set to 4 x 2 = 8 + 1 = 9 ; If you've an i5 then 4 cores/4 threads You'll use make -j5 and so on ...... Then in /usr/src/linux/ I'll use # make -j9 && make -j9 modules_install (if You want) terminate the job with make install (iyou'll find in /boot a new file named vmlinuz (The compioled kernel image); this file you can rename as you prefer then update grub) Forgive me if my knowledge of US language is poor and I make grammatical errors and even if I tell you things you already know ... maybe thanks for any suggestions :) :) :))

Hello; Gentoo-sources the maximum number of CPU "visible" is 512. in Fedora for example is 4096. This is related to some setting in my custom kernel or depends on some additional patch? Excuse my curiosity :)

I am Very happ? for this result. If You encounter other troubles post them :) Ciao :)

Ohil? .... found the command :P ci74771ht ~ # qfile /usr/include/GL/glext.h media-libs/mesa (/usr/include/GL/glext.h) then try to recompile # emerge --oneshot mesa Then restartyour emerge -DNu world :)

Try an # revdep-rebuild If after revdep-rebuild (and also make a emerge @preserved-rebuild) the error is not solved, then you have not in your system the file glext.h What is the output of # find /usr/include -iname *glext.h* ?

My though to use emerge -DNu world is for have an idea about the "consistence" of the system eventually #revdep-rebuild excuse me this is a litle off topic.......

There are more than one level of masking software. If You use the curren version (that use "amd64" and "~amd64" you must simply unmask with # echo "=sys-devel/gcc-4.9.2" >> /etc/portage/package.unmask If You use the "stable branch" you 'll must unmask also in the file for low level masking keywords: # echo "=sys-devel/gcc-4.9.2 ~amd64" >> /etc/portage/package.accept_keywords Then start # emerge -DNu1 world gcc ________________________ There are other ways , e.g. # emerge "=sys-devel/gcc-4.9.2" --autounmask-write Then use etc-update or dispatch-conf ________________________________________ The last operation is to vrify what version of GCC will use the system: gcc-config -l Automatically must be updated to the new version...... otherwise, gcc-config -f X (where X is the number relative at the gcc version that you want to use). The ultimate command is to make an # . /etc/profile So You will use the new version of the compiler :P When you'll make an # emerge -c (-c = --deepclean) After an emerge -DNu world --with-bdeps=y The previous version will be removed from your system. Hello :)

To compare code generate from 2 different versions of gcc is necessary to bench them. The real difference is when You've one of the latest cpu. cause some instruction can be considered by highly version. If You like benchmarcks, there is fore example # emerge app-benchmarks/phoronix-test-suite or e.g. # time make_something Or for other software can be made a bench using our resources .... since for phoronix Ciao :)

The time to compile the new compiler or the time to compile software by the new compiler, for me is not important if it generate a binary code more performant than a precedent version of gcc. :) However for now I wanted to do an experiment to work with you ..... otherwise I stay on branch "Stable" (except kernel that use the latest gentoo-sources). Bye :) :) :)

I just wanted to expose that about Kdenlive, 0.9.8 is "more accurate" than allla 0.9.10 that sometimes has the "clicks" to sound level I hope this will be useful feedback. Hello everyone :)

As I said I have unmasked the 4.9.2 I'recompiling world (emerge -e world --keep-going). Now it recompile libreoffice. I had not errors....... My PC is [i7 4771 + 16 GiB ram + nvidia x660 on MSIZ83-G47-Gaming edition. (control the output of gcc-config -l to see what version of GCC is in use). With precompiled distro's there is a great difference respect to compile *too. But Debian and any precompiled distros can not be superior vs Funtoo. It's impossible ....For me it is like Ivan Drago vs "Apollo Creed" In "Rocky IV" :D :D :D Not all is faster ... but in some cases an application compiled using the "native" are immensely superior .... for example try to open a raw image (best quality): 3 seconds vs 11 seconds :P :D. take a lokk in questo sito. What I say will look bad on my part. but .... debian debian debian or ubuntu or debian .... always other. It ''s time for me that * too have their rightful recognition; and which are not milliseconds differences ....... In tests of the previous link I posted * too may be up to 4x faster than a precompiled. Otherwise .... because all this work of Daniel, developers and users? I repeat; with a cpu "old", one precompiled distro is for me a correct choice. But if you have an Athlon 64 x2 or better, then .. i install * too (ie Gen or Fun). And I've choiced Funtoo .... causes Funtoo reveleation is the best of the intelligence of the great Mr. Daniel Robbins and Him developer / friends. I think that if I'm wrong correct me. __________________ If you encounter errors with gcc-4.9.2 please post them :) Good Luck :)

Excuse me for my question: Why do You want the 4.9.2 ? Ther's a particular reason ? ______________ I'm using "Funtoo stable" and is very "consistent". But If You want I can unmask the 4.9.2 for make an experiment re-emerging world (I've a i7 4771 then one day is sufficient to recompile all using the --keep-going ). Ciao :) PS: Ok ... since I'm a Mad man and I like to make experiments or/and tell for some errors to developers :D :D :D I'm trying to compile gcc 4.9.2 :) subsequentially I'll re-emerge world. 1 day for this ut i'm happy if i can give an hand :) :) :)

I'm not satisfied for the presence of debian-source in Funtoo. # emerge --deselect debian-sources && emerge -C debian-sources Then # echo "sys-kernel/debian-sources">>/etc/portage/package.mask # euse -E experimental -p sys-kernel/gentoo-sources # emerge gentoo-sources genkernel Then open /etc/genkernel.conf if you want to change some parameters. And to set the "MAKEOPTS" variable as n?threads+1; then # genkernel --menuconfig all ( at first if you've more then one sys-kernel*-sources, use : # eselect kernel list # eselect kernel set X (where X is the number relative at the kernel that You want to compile). Ciao :)

I'd like that compiz may funxtion with xfce or mate ..... ut i think for now is impossible or possible with very hard difficulties. Thank You for All Grat Funtoo users :) For me the best thing is that lall my system runs perfectly for now. It's cery very fast & stable cause I can use BOinc ?8with use of cuda) and contemporarily use other softwares ... like videos or other ..... E. G. I try with Arch, but with Boinc running in foreground, they makes error; with Funtoo no problem. and respect to Fedora, the Boinc bench give me in integer ~15000 MIPS in integer and > 4400 about Fpu benchs. Fedora runs about Integer 1/4 of the magic Funtoo :P Excuse me for the off topic, ut i think that these informations may be util for developers ...... Ciao :D (sono Italiano) ..... then think for Your grat aid :) Funtoo never dies !!!

Excuse my error.... please delete this discussuib; thanks very much

The block is the same: emerge: there are no ebuilds built with USE flags to satisfy ">=x11-wm/compiz-0.8.8[gconf?]". !!! One of the following packages is required to complete your request: - x11-wm/compiz-0.9.12::gentoo (Missing IUSE: gconf) (dependency required by "x11-plugins/compiz-plugins-extra-0.8.8" [ebuild]) (dependency required by "x11-wm/compiz-fusion-0.8.8" [ebuild]) (dependency required by "compiz-fusion" [argument])

Eh in efffect .... there are troubles with fetching sources of compiz. !!! Couldn't download 'compiz-0.9.12.tgz'.

But.... wich videocard have You ? # lspci|grep -i vga What DE do You want to install ? Do you want wailand or not ? Could You post your make.conf and : # uname -a # eselect profile list The opengl USE flag is enabled "Globally" ? For enable opengl globally: # euse -E opengl Then post the stderr in your terminal if you want :) Thank You.

Let me to analyze better this trouble; then i can post a bug report. Thank you 1000000 :) :) :)
