It's working for me. Not great but works. I prefer a plugin with problems for me in a few webs and no problems in others than nothing.

wow!! thanks a lot!! i was crazy with this bug because several programs need gtk-1.2 and other dependencies using glib-1.2 and i was not able to install them. So your help worked for me.

Try using the CFQ I/O scheduler. I believe it's default in newer kernels.

I have it. From my kernel config:

# grep -i cfq .config
CONFIG_IOSCHED_CFQ=y
CONFIG_DEFAULT_CFQ=y
CONFIG_DEFAULT_IOSCHED="cfq"

I test disabling I/O scheduler in kernel and recompiling but it's equal.

Something more?

Newer PATA disks in the same computer (some Seagate from 2004) went up to 50 MB/s.

With modern disks there should be no big difference between PATA and SATA as both interfaces are faster than the disk if operated in the correct (UDMA66, UDMA100, UDMA133) mode.

Sure? 8O

I thought that hdparm ...

Well, of course, a PATA disk is more slow than a SATA. However, i know that 19MB/s is very low for my PATA disk. I tested with other distros and kernels:

Backtrack 2 (based in Slax) - Linux kernel 2.6.18-rc5

# hdparm -t /dev/hda
/dev/hda:
Timing buffered disk reads: 102 MB in 3.00 seconds = 33 ...

do you have the correct driver for your ATA chipset selected?

I think so. I have enabled "PATA_ATIIXP=y" in kernel config (Device Drivers->Serial ATA and Parallel ATA->ATI PATA support). I tried with generic IDE and measurements are similar. However,

hdparm -tT /dev/hda

/dev/hda:
Timing ...

Is it right?

My harddisk is PATA 80GB with ATI IDE controller.

Hi,

I think high IO-Waits are not really a problem.

"Freezing" is another topic and I guess this was the primary intention of that thread.

IOWait not a problem? I burn CD/DVD at only 1.0x because the system response is slow and iowait is over 80%. Installing a program with emerge take a lot of ...

I have gentoo-sources-2.6.19-r1 and i was able to compile ati-drivers. But i updated ati-drivers recently for better support, because with ati-drivers-8.30 i get 50FPS while 8.32.5 is over 200 FPS. The new ati driver is from AMD, and is better than old.

This driver compile with 2.6.19 kernel, but i ...

I have the same symptoms: high iowait, 100% cpu load, freeze for a long time, etc.

I have and AMD Turion64X2 TL-50 with ATI chipset, so the problems is not nvidia, intel, etc. I have a PATA disk and windows run better than linux. I am frustrated, because i had an Athlon XP 2000+ with VIA chipset in ...

The error probably comes when the ebuild tries to build/configure the 32bit sandbox. If you call `ebuild` with the --debug option it will tell you exactly what commands it executes.

I tried but i installed sandbox so when i run "ebuild...install" there is not error, i don't know if the error is ...

I found the answer to my problems. I must create an empty file named ".compiled" and ebuild don't compile the source when i run "ebuild...install". So the solution is:

2. During compilation the compiler will use the options specified through the "CFLAGS" variable in your make.conf.


Yes, but my CFLAGS is "-march=athlon64 -O2" so i think there is no problem with my CFLAGS.

I assume "install" performs all the steps from unpacking, compiling and hence installing ...

Hi

I am trying to install sandbox 1.2.18 but i get:

checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables

I tried with:

# ebuild /usr/portage/sys-apps/sandbox/sandbox-1.2.18.ebuild compile

And i get the same error. Then tried:

I have the same problem. When i try to emerge any package, my CPU usage is 90-100%, using runlevel 1, 3 or 5. The problems is only emerging and/or compiling. For example, if i run "emerge -av xxxxx", the "Calculating dependencies" message appear after 30 seconds!!! If i try to compile a package, i ...
