[gentoo-user] udev update changed cd/dvd device name
Anyone else run into this problem with udev-171-r9? I updated yesterday and my CD/DVD, which has been /dev/cdrom1 since I built the machine 2 1/2 years ago, is now called /dev/scd0. Machine is x86_64, mostly stable. - Mark
[gentoo-user] Wine anybody?
Hi, has any been successful in using Wine-1.5.17 on an AMD 64bit machine? When I run /usr/bin/wine it says file not found. I'm seeing the wine32 and wine64 use flags. Removing the wine64 use flags makes emerge fail : configure: error: No OpenGL library found on this system. eselect opengl list shows "ati" here. Previous versions didn't show these problems. Has anybody encountered similar problems? Thanks, Helmut.

I removed the wine64 flag shortly after it was introduced (I do not use 64 bit
Windows programs) and did not have that problem. Just in case it has anything
to do with the recent X upgrade, I reinstalled it, but got no errors.
FWIW, here are the use flags:

That at least goes a long way toward explaining why the system is acting the way it's acting. Threw me for a loop I must say. Interestingly I don't have the elog file you show above. (Not sure I should, just saying I don't.) In the file above it talks about running udev-mount in sysinit which I don't have, and have never had.

Interestingly enough this is most likely due to the principle of 'an armed society is a polite society'. In primitive societies most people are armed (with the arms of the day, ie spears, bows/arrows, knives, etc), and there is no concept of suing someone over something as silly as punching some obnoxious jerk in the face for being an obnoxious jerk. The jerk gets punched, everyone knows he deserved it, 'nuff said. So, people in primitive societies tend to not be obnoxious jerks - unless they are really big and mean and ornery, in which case they may get away with it for a while - until he ends up dead, everyone knows he deserved it, 'nuff said. By contrast, Western culture by and large is not only mostly ignorant of manners and proprietary, but we made a conscious decision to discard all of it entirely. I too have come into contact with many cultures other than my own. The only one that goes out of it's way to be rude as a matter of course is the Caucasian. Food for thought. Due mostly to the litigious nature of modern society. No one wants to risk having their kids stolen from them by kidnappers and child molesters (aka 'Child Protective Services' or some other similar named 'service'), so they neglect their parental responsibilities of *disciplining* their children, and voila - those undisciplined kids grow up to be men who are afraid to be and/or don't know *how* to be men, women who are afraid to be thought of as different from men - and no one wants to be the one to get sued by the arrogant jerk for punching them in the face.

[gentoo-user] Boot and udev Woes
Hi Gentoo. I have recently got a FX8350 and all is going very well. After a week of using I have had no issues and then realised I had not set man number of cpus in kernel config. This was set to 6. So as FX8350 is an eight core beast. I decided to set to 8. Upon reboot the boot hangs at waiting for uevents to be processed. This hangs for 60 seconds and then starts spitting out the following timeout killing /sbin/modprobe -bv xcpu_vendor 0002 + lots of 4 long numbers. Sorry, I cannot trap these as they fly by. in a continous loop. Reset required. Booting from old kernel is still ok (6 cores set). Looking in /proc/cpuinfo there are only 6 cores. I can boot ok from Windows which shows 8 cores and I have also updated BIOS to latest version. Any ideas Is there any way to detect or test that I using 8 cores? -- John D Maunder

[gentoo-user] Kernel 3.6: No external Monitor
Hello, i am using a Thinkpad X301 with a DVI Monitor connected to the mini displayport. That worked perfectly for years, but with Kernel 3.6 (and 3.7rc) the DVI Monitor stays black on boot and it is not visible in xrandr. As if it wasn't connected at all. Rebooting with 3.5 brings back the Display with full functionality. All i found about this was a Fedora bugreport stating the issue, but is unanswered for a month now. Does someone got an idea here or faced the same issue and solved it? Regards, Norman
