The only thing I don't really like about gwenview is its low speed. It takes a few seconds to load when I just want to see an image, and also needs some time to render the next image. For that purpose, kuickshow is a better alternative. It also pages through images much faster, at the cost of quality (though this can be configured) and a little jerkiness when the image gets displayed. -- Gruß | Greetings | Qapla' I forbid any use of my email addresses with Facebook services.

[gentoo-user] [OT]: Need help with a Makefile
Hi, I am trying to compile a linux-kernel for an embedded system. There is an (older) build environment. The kernel is based on a 2.4er linux kernel. When doing a make menuconfig I get: make menuconfig Makefile:441: *** mixed implicit and normal rules. Stop. [1]8814 exit 2 make menuconfig The according part of the makefile is: include $(srctree)/arch/$(ARCH)/Makefile export KBUILD_DEFCONFIG 441 config %config: scripts_basic outputmakefile FORCE $(Q)mkdir -p include/linux $(Q)$(MAKE) $(build)=scripts/kconfig $@ $(Q)$(MAKE) -C $(srctree) KBUILD_SRC= .kernelrelease I marked the according line with its number. Unfortunately I am not familiar with makefiles... I am using the make of the gentoo system, which is GNU make 3.82... What is wrong here? Thank you very much in advance for any help!

The later kernels have the changes made that are necessary but if you're building an older kernel with a newer make then you'll run into this problem. You can look at newer kernel source to find the changes necessary. In the case above, the imlicit rule is the %config target and the normal rule is the config target. You can just separate those into two separate rules with the same recipes. For example: config: scripts_basic outputmakefile FORCE $(Q)mkdir -p include/linux $(Q)$(MAKE) $(build)=scripts/kconfig $@ $(Q)$(MAKE) -C $(srctree) KBUILD_SRC= .kernelrelease %config: scripts_basic outputmakefile FORCE $(Q)mkdir -p include/linux $(Q)$(MAKE) $(build)=scripts/kconfig $@ $(Q)$(MAKE) -C $(srctree) KBUILD_SRC= .kernelrelease Regards, Todd

[gentoo-user] replacement for aftp?
Hi, for transferring data to an embedded linux system I am looking for a replacement for aftp, which been removed from portage a longer time ago. Security does not matter that much, since everything is connected locally and in reach of my arms :) Any suggestions? Thank you very much for any help in advance! Have a nice weekend! Best regards, mcc

I would prefer a patch to the Makefile (like Tood Goodman proposed earlier) over a downgrade of make. I just meant to provide more information about the issue. Let us know if you have trouble patching that very Makefile. Best, Sebastian

The only trace of atfp in Gentoo I find is https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=25440 Gentoo CVS doesn't have deleted ebuilds for net-ftp/aftp, no idea.

[gentoo-user] LVM, /usr and really really bad thoughts.
Howdy, Well, this is what I am thinking about jumping into. Ya'll ready for this? I'm thinking about redoing my partition layout. I'm wanting to keep / (root) on a normal ext4 file system. I want to put /usr, /var, /home, and such on LVM. I been using that dracut thingy to build the init thingy. Sorry, I'm full of thingys tonight. Maybe I need my meds? Anyway, the init thingy seems to be working, I think. I asked a while back how to tell for sure but it didn't get any replies so I am not real sure it is. I do get this tho: root@fireball / # dmesg | grep init [0.00] Command line: root=/dev/sda3 init=/sbin/init [0.00] initial memory mapped : 0 - 2000 [0.00] init_memory_mapping: -bfc91000 [0.00] init_memory_mapping: 0001-00044000 [0.00] Kernel command line: root=/dev/sda3 init=/sbin/init [0.00] Memory: 16387452k/17825792k available (6262k kernel code, 1052572k absent, 385768k reserved, 6647k data, 4852k init) [0.003045] Security Framework initialized [0.388120] SCSI subsystem initialized [0.410739] pnp: PnP ACPI init [0.787822] Trying to unpack rootfs image as initramfs...

I keep my /usr partition in /, but seeing the modules from dracut, the "magic" happens at: /usr/lib/dracut/modules.d/98usrmount/mount-usr.sh Basically, it seems that if /usr is specified in /etc/fstab, then dracut will mount it. It says nothing about LVM, but that is taken care of in the scripts at: /usr/lib/dracut/modules.d/90lvm I'm not familiar with LVM, but it seems simple enough.

From: [0.787822] Trying to unpack rootfs image as initramfs... I would say it's using an initramfs; if you only specify the dracut created one in grub or lilo, that should be the one. And from /usr/lib/dracut/modules.d/98usrmount/mount-usr.sh:36, you should grep for the string "Mounting /usr" in your logs. It seems that the loglevel is info, so it should pop up by default.

Well, that is one of the things I want to change. I have several reasons for wanting to change this mess. One is a file system change and the other is to use LVM for stuff. I basically want LVM for everything but root itself and /boot of course. Right now, /usr is still on the root file system. I have portage on a separate partition tho. So far, reiserfs has not gave me any problems, not OS wise anyway. I did have a large drive that gave me issues but I'm not sure if it was the file system or not, tho it could very well have been. It now has ext4 tho. lol I'm going to beat some sense into this other drive and make a few partitions. I may not do this tonight but then again, I might. ;-) Dale :-) :-) -- I am only responsible for what I said ... Not for what you understood or how you interpreted my words! Miss the compile output?
