Thanks for the fix, I'm back in 2025

Obviously I'm in the same boat: Had running app-office/libreoffice-bin-24.2.7.2 since Dec last year under plasma 6 (it looked "normal") and now updated to app-office/libreoffice-bin-24.8.4-r1 which makes it look like the screenshot posted above.

I also uninstalled some stuff that seemed reasonably ...

OK, that explains the problem much better: No parallel qt4 and qt5 - now that's what I introduced with "qt4 -qt5".

@Josef.95: But --autounmask=n would only hide the problem/make it impossible for emerge to find any solution?

@asturm: Perhaps I'm getting the concept wrong, but when there is qscintilla installed with qt4 USE Flag (which sqliteman obviously wants to have) it can be installed and nobody asks for ...

But why is it then not running into this problem when installing sqliteman on the updated system, but only later on?

I encounter a strange problem regarding dev-db/sqliteman-1.2.2-r2 and x11-libs/qscintilla-2.10 on several independent computers (but with similar setup).

Starting from an fully updated system ("emerge -avuDN world" does not want to do anything) we install sqliteman. Nothing is pulled in, just this ...

Thanks for the iptables clarification!

Back on real topic:
Connection to gwdg.de just succeeds because it denies the PORT command and then the client continues with trying PASV:

PORT 192,168,1,100,229,210
500 Illegal PORT command.
PASV
227 Entering Passive Mode (134,76,12,6,120,161).

This is ...

Currently I'm curios that your session log reports:

PORT 192,168,1,100,225,72
200 PORT command successful

This is a LAN IP (192.168.1.100) and not an official IP for an internet connection.

Which client software are you using?
Can you connect and change dirs/download something on e.g. ftp ...

Sounds to me as if there is a problem with a firewall, but you said it's the same with all iptables rules removed?
What are the default policies, are there other rules in effect (give us a "iptables -L")?
What is the network relationship between client and server (e.g. both in LAN or server on ...

Ran into the same problem on three different machines despite running updates once every week.
The above solution worked very well for all machines. Thanks very much!

i do read sometimes overclocker pages and even on standard specs some RAM need e.g. more Voltage as specified, e.g. OZX or how they are called. hardware supplier claim a lot to be in specs but some brands do not work well where others do. in a ideal world anything would run fine.
Yeah, that would ...

You should read the full story first. The RAM is not overclocked per se as it is specified for this speed: http://www.ec.kingston.com/ecom/configurator_new/PartsInfo_disc.asp?root=&LinkBack=&ktcpartno=KHX3200AK2/1G
Furthermore this has nothing to do with memtest86+-5.01 not being running as this a ...

Thanks again for your advice, but I am some steps further in making the system usable again. The reason for this post was getting memtest86+-5.01 to run and I did not want to bother you with the underlying topic you're now jumping on.

To explain the story a bit more and to clarify that we don't ...

Thank you both for your advice!

(Un?)fortunately I already know that my problem are RAM timings, there is no need to find the source. Up to now the problem is, that I can only reproduce the error by copying files and comparing checksums afterwards which will give spurious bit flips (they go away ...

Hi all,

I'm trying to track down RAM problems in some of my old hardware (Athlon X2 64 Dual Core on Asus A8N-E, 4x 512MB Kingston HyperX RAM) and therefore tried to install memtest86+-5.01 (testing). It builds and installs without errors, but when rebooting and selecting the entry in the grub1 menu ...

I have a WLAN which has a hidden SSID (let's call it "MYWLAN"). Therefore I'm configuring networks via the following entries in /etc/conf.d/net using the SSID and a mapping of (AP-)MAC to SSID:
key_MYWLAN="0123456 enc open"
config_MYWLAN="192.168.1.32 netmask 255.255.255.0 brd 192.168.1.255"
routes ...

Seems to be an issue connected to Firefox in my case, as the same webpages play the videos without any artifacts in opera...

Na klar...das Offensichtliche habe ich übersehen, danke für den Hinweis.
Man muss das zwar für jedes Programm einzeln machen, aber es funktioniert und die falschen "Deutsch" Einträge verschwinden tatsächlich.

Habe "leider" nichts mehr mit "_frami" gefunden. Wenn ich "kate" in der Konsole starte kommt zuerst auch die erfreuliche Mitteilung

Enchant dict for "de_DE" 0x2805cd0

Licht am Ende des Tunnels :-)

Nach dem Update auf die empfohlene myspell Version hat sich LibreOffice selbstständig sortiert und korrigiert die Wörter nun richtig.
Kile konnte ich durch Ändern eines Eintrags in der kilerc dazu bewegen auch das richtige Wörterbuch zu benutzen (mehrfaches umstellen ...

Danke für den Tipp, aber ich habe es nochmals geprüft und es ist definitiv "Deutsch (Deutschland)" eingestellt, wie auch die Konsolenausgabe von Kile zeigt:

kile(20818)/Kate (On-The-Fly Spellcheck) KateOnTheFlyChecker::performSpellCheck: for the range [ (9, 0) -> (9, 6) ]
kile(20818)/Kate (On-The ...

Seems that logcheck tries to email something like /var/log/messages (which may grow quite big if you don't have logrotate installed).

So I would suggest to:
Check file sizes in /var/log
Check the configuration (if any) of logcheck
Perhaps install logrotate to keep file sizes small enough to get ...

Ich habe ein recht merkwürdiges Problem mit meiner Rechtschreibprüfung. Installiert ist für folgenden Testfall (x86_64 stable):

KDE 4.9.5
Enchant 1.6.0
hunspell 1.3.2-r3
myspell-de-2012.06.17
LibreOffice 3.6.4.3

In allen KDE Editor Komponenten (Kate, Kile, KDevelop, KWrite) und auch in LibreOffice ...

Because of the working system with desktop effects turned off, I wanted to further look into this thing.
I quickly switched them back on with new kernel 3.7.10, but the system crashed. This time I had the feeling that changing a window caused the whole thing.
After that I kept desktop effects on ...

Yes rsync was also an option, I'm using that pretty much for backups.
Good that it worked so well
