Hi
when I use hwinfo command it just outputs "> pci.5: xen%"and exits. I have no idea what could it mean. In syslog I noticed this:
Code:
Nov  9 00:18:24 enterprise kernel: hwinfo[4189]: segfault at 693 ip 00007fb7ad09011a sp 00007fffa406ca50 error 4 in libhd.so.20.0[7fb7ad06c000+9d000]

Any ideas what could be wrong?

Please provide version of hwinfo and the output of
Code:
emerge --info


A quick google search has quite a few results https://www.google.de/#q=%22error+4+in+libhd.so%22
Maybe we find something there. If you used
Code:
CFLAGS=-ggdb
and
Code:
FEATURES=splitdebug
to build hwinfo you can get a backtrace via gdb:
Code:
gdb hwinfo -ex r

This will start the gdb debugger and run the program inside. After hwinfo crashed, type
Code:
bt
to print the backtrace on the terminal. You could paste it here or use it for a new bug at bugs.gentoo.org ;)

I was not able to reproduce your crash with sys-apps/hwinfo-20.0 . If you want to install it, you might need to add the keywords for it first:
Code:
mkdir -p /etc/portage/package.keywords
echo "sys-apps/hwinfo ~amd64" > /etc/portage/package.keywords/hwinfo

Then update hwinfo
Code:
emerge -u hwinfo

That is nice, but *how*?
