yesterday i began the process of migrating over. it was from all the way back from 2019 i think. lol

i broke portage and emerge, prior to getting rid of python gettext perl gdbm autoconf and like 5 other things, so i had to make install them all outside of portage 3 other things and link that ...

So one day my father called and said, hey the little bar on the bottom and top is gone.

(referring to xfce4's default icon launcher/start bar)

so i reboot it, and root is not mounting automatically anymore.. further more the hostname went missing replaced with @(none)

so, im able to still log in ...

had steam installed from overlay, since the overlay became a thing.

no issues

Looks like a half-unfinished GUI wrapper that displays systemd's text output verbatim. Building LLVM just to click a button instead of using tab completion? No thanks.

Calling it a “manager” is very fitting - it sits there looking pretty, performing no useful work and wasting resources.

id like some ranch and parmasean cheese with my salad.

this made me think of and laugh at this horrendously old oriellys java2/sdk 1.2-1.3 book ive had for 10 years someone gave me as a handmedown.. it was seriously outdated then...but now? i dont even know why i have it.. guess sentiment even ...

Samba is one of those stupid packages that have a singular PYTHON_TARGETS=python2_7 flag for the sole purpose of causing a blocking error and wasting your time if it's disabled.

Here's my list of similarly broken packages, maybe it'll save you some time:
app-emulation/qemu PYTHON_TARGETS: python2 ...

im at no means an expert doing things the 'right way' when i was faced with that months back

but for me to make things budge when it was stuck on that i put PYTHON_SINGLE_TARGET="python3_6"

and PYTHON_TARGETS="python2_7 python3_6"

im guessing im an idiot for doing so or somehow wrong(or not and ...

sao98021, thanks for your answer. I tried it but unfortunately it didn't work.

Just to be sure I ddn't misunderstand, the beginning of the edited config.vdf (with most of the content replaced by ellipsis) is:
"InstallConfigStore"
{
"Software"
{
"Valve"
{
"Steam"
{
"CS" "valve511 ...

blah, i've destroyed the page, shouldve used a pastebin for that ;(

also make a backup or just delete the entry if it doesn't work, but its reported as a work around for people getting the same msg. also the "CS" is lined up with the whole line, not above it. everything else leave as is

open /.steam/root/config/config.vdf

look for > "InstallConfigStore"
> {
> "Software"
> {
> "Valve"
> {
> "Steam"
> {


(if in gedit ctrl+f and type "Steam" it should be the first result, now underneath the { enter the line "CS" "valve511.steamcontent.com;valve501.steamcontent.com;valve517 ...

on my sandybridge (i72670qm) with videocards= intel i965 but without USE='glamor', xf86-video-intel not installed, what is installed is libva-intel-driver xorg is only using 1% of memory.

but i do not have 20-modesetting.conf because this is an optimus sytem (meaning i also have nvidia listed in ...

i use for all that refuse to run, (like teamfortress 2) and for use with bumblebee its the same command, except with the %optirun steam%

I hate having to emerge qtwebengine
I fully agree. But I found a solution: I changed a few USE Flags and qtwebengine is not getting pulled in anymore.

Really, look at the packages that pull in qtwebengine
equery d qtwebengine
If you're lucky, you can get rid of qtwebengine by changing a few USE ...

this escalated in a... moderately controlled and consistent pace

Yeah. Using video= messes things up. :(
I actually managed to get it working on vc BUT other diplays were on until OpenRC configured virtual console setting resolution via video= (4k in my case) resulted to blank screen, so leaving resolution unspecified gave me a resolution which had thumb sized ...

meh i didn't see that you already messed around with 'video', so scratch that. except i guess the resolution issue, i suppose you could also set it manually with <xres> x <yres>: resolution

it would look like video=<conn>:<xres>x<yres>[M][R][-<bpp>][@<refresh>][i][m][eDd]

i'm not sure if this ...

how could gentoo insure a dnf uuid(or something similar) is used on every single install, wouldnt that require drastic changes? how could they force you to keep it on your system?

systemd-machineidd

Wait, lemme retitle the thread, should it be "If this happens with eudev then I'm gone"?

that ...

"For those not comfortable with a DNF UUID, there would be a "easy" means of opting out of this data collection."

makes it a little more tolerable, i guess?

also, wouldn't it be... much more difficult for gentoo to do this? As no one system is built the same, aside from the minimal install iso ...

curious to know if anyones running our beloved gentoo on this machine, i recently (after a year of just dealing with dualboot) wiped chromeOS completely, the only image i was then able to boot via usb with this stupid UEFI was ubuntu 18.0.whateverthisis, even sysrescuecd.img would just boot to a ...

very nice, this should be linked in the android-gentoo-prefix wiki page

I have a 20-modesetting.conf file in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d. Are you suggesting that I rename it and move it to /etc/bumblebee/xorg.conf.d/10-dummy.conf? Also, do I need to make any conf file changes so it falls back to the dummy conf file?

suggesting that you get rid of it entirely, just rename ...

oh, by following the intel guide, did you make a .conf file in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d ?

like with my build, i do not have one. and it falls back to /etc/bumblebee/xorg.conf.d/10-dummy.conf

which is how it's supposed to be done with bumblebee i believe, if you did make one just re-lable it so it isnt ...
