Ah, right, thanks, it indeed went from "lepagee@elepage-laptop" to "lepagee@CPE54ee7529978d-CM0015a349a2c5". I use NetworkManager (it's a laptop). I also have /etc/init.d/hostname to set my hostname at boot. I guess they conflict. Thanks a lot.

Hello, this is a strange one,

I am using ALSA (without pulse). When I play music, it always work in the laptop speaker. However, when I plug the headphone, it only work 10% of the time. When it doesn't work, I may have to reboot up to 5 time until it work (seem random). I do hear a "click" in the ...

BUMP

Hello,

After I resume from suspend, no USB devices are working. Plugging and unplugging them from the port produce no dmesg or lsusb entries. I tried

* recompiling the kernel with the usb host subsystem as a module (and rmmod+modprobe them)
* some iommu kernel command line tricks
* disabling ACPI ...

I found updating xorg.conf module search path appears to cleaner fix for this issue:

Section "Files"
ModulePath "/usr/lib64/opengl/nvidia,/usr/lib64/xorg/modules"
EndSection


Update things to search nvidia first which allows the NVIDIA glx.so library to be found first and then search xorg ...

This solved the issue for me No idea why it wasn't u+s in the first place, it has to be.

Hi,

I use a laptop with a b43 wifi chip. Not the best in the universe... The card is detected by ifconfig and I can connect to some networks, usually unsecured ones. The problem is that nm-applet doesn't seem to behave correctly. First, I see a red (-) icon instead of the signal icon. Then, on some ...

Same problem here, but when I try to use VAAPI with newer VLC, all I get is

Hi,

I re-emerged the world after trying some stupid optimization system wide. I recompiled everything with -O2 . Normally, I am a little crazier, but I wanted to have a stable system before turning the funny cflags on again. So, in theory, my current system should be stable, but it is not. The ...

If by "apple-apps" you mean binaries compiled for OSX, then I believe that you have little chance of doing that.
The underlaying libraries of OSX are not FOSS, so you much like windows, you'd need a "wine project" that implements the system calls.

The other way around is far easier, since most ...

Sauerbraten is badly outdated

Remove the icedtea plugin (.so) from the netscape/mozilla//firefox plugin directory (usually in /usr/lib/{netscape,mozilla,firefox} directory

The best way to have firefox is to download it from firefox.com and put it in a chmod 666 -R directory
Select your channal (stable, beta or nightly) then let firefox update itself everyday.

The default compilations are -Os with some -O2 flags and it -is- profiled, something even our most ...

First, if it happen to you, your disk is dieing, change it. But if you need to fix the problem to do a backup, or simply want to fix the problem for now and tag the bad block so the disk is "safe" for a few more months, it worth trying.

I just had the problem, /usr/portage was broken and I could ...

Atheros ATH9k are quite good. The driver used to suck, but since Atheros hired all the OSS devs, its now great. An half height version exist because I have one, but it was from factory, so I don't know if you can find one.

I found why with ldd, it was linking to a legacy version of dbus, then segfaulted when parsing the response.

I finally decided to port my old stuffs from HAL to that udisk/upower thing. However, I dont think I really understand those scripts. I installed udisks and restarted udev, so for so good, my computer have not rebooted by itself. But no dbus services have been created. When I do udisks --enumerate ...

I read the whole thread here and I didn't understand if -graphite-identity is neccessary for graphite to work or not ?!

The wiki article does not cover how to install or configure NM, it's more a FAQ for corner case, but yea, I took a look at it before installing NM. And no, I don't want WICD unless there is a KDE/Plasma frontend.

Hi,

I installed NM to have easier config for various wifi spot I use. It does not work, no interfaces show un in nm-applet. Udev, dbus and NetworkManager are started. Eth0 work using /etc/init.d, so it is not (at least not entierly) the kernel. I see this warning when I start d-bus

-lgomp is part of -fopenmp (at least, gcc should detect it need to be, ass gomp stand for Gnu/GCC OpenMP)

and read this page http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-4.5.0/gcc/Optimize-Options.html
not the other one, it clearly say that -floop-parallelize-all does not check if it is profitable, and in ...

-floop-parallelize-all will probably make things worst, spliting a int i =0; i < 3 loop in 4 will be about 20x slower than just running it, if not more. Let the compiler decide if it is good or not. -lgomp is useless by the way, it will not improve things and if it override --as-needed, it will make ...
