Thank you, figueroa, you sent me in the right direction.
I do not need (for now, at least) something that complex for sending email within a full network. But I found out that postfix can deliver itself the mail to any local mailbox. Then a small IMAP server is needed, that Thunderbird or any other ...

I am also using the postfix + thunderbird combination, but did not upgrade yet to thunderbird 91.
Now, I don't even remember how exactly I set it up this way, probably with the help of some web page a long time ago. But today, most instructions I find are about using thunderbird with a movemail ...

(without knowing details about the setup on a Raspberry Pi)

northfrisia, with OpenRC there is a fsck service that should be doing that, based on the contents of /etc/fstab.
You can see with rc-update if it is enabled for any of the runlevels.

Thank you for the pointers!

Hi, I understand why the GPU ramdisk is not such a good idea, but the geek in me is asking: HOW exactly is that done?

@alamahant: there is lot of blockers, seems that best option is to press on with world update.
The PAM update also hit me recently, but it's not yet clear that this is you problem.
In any case, I think it's worth trying first the suggestion of alamahant of running dispatch-conf (or etc-update); it ...

In part, yes. However, distcc does not work with some package build systems, and even when it does, it only distributes the compilation phase of C/C++ programs. It doesn't distribute preprocessing or linking, and it doesn't work on programs that are not C/C++. Given how many key packages have ...

Hi, related to the original question, isn't this what distcc is able to do?

Hi, this was useful for me in the past: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Moving_your_p ... hunderbird

Inside ~/.thunderbird, there is a profiles.ini file that defines the location of each profile.

Well, I don't have another good idea for now...
Just 2 things:

• could you please post again the dmesg log with the last kernel config?
• the console does not appear for any of the CTRL+ALT+F1, F2, ... virtual terminals? (maybe not all of them are started, this is done through /etc/inittab)

# CONFIG_FB_UVESA is not set
# CONFIG_FB_VESA is not set


Still not working, I have black screen with an underscore blinking.

Forgot to mention what I use sddm like DM, I have 3 boxes with the same DM, and only in this box, not working ctrl+alt+f2
Hi, what I meant was to try to have all of the ...

[ 0.896850] uvesafb: failed to execute /sbin/v86d
[ 0.896852] uvesafb: make sure that the v86d helper is installed and executable
This is from having "Userspace VESA VGA graphics support" (FB_UVESA) enabled in the kernel, that's probably not needed.
In my case, I have the following options set in ...

Hi, Fitap

Here is a possibly similar problem: https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-1083076.html
It could be an incorrect kernel configuration related to the console framebuffer. Could you post a link to your dmesg log and kernel configuration?
Also, at boot, do you see text scrolling on the ...

Ok, good to hear that! So a newer kernel solves it.
But be careful with version 5.10.0, I read around here that it has a major bug related to XFS filesystems.

You could now keep an eye on what versions of gentoo-sources become stable in the future, to stay closer to the portage tree.

From what I've gathered from man 5 ebuild the format should be <package-name>-<version> , but with the versions found at https://packages.gentoo.org/packages/sys-kernel/gentoo-sources emerge complains about invalid package atoms like mentioned above.
That's not exactly correct, the man page also ...

I also set CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE="" . Is that what you meant with removing the firmware nick_gentoo?
That did not help either :(
Yes, this is what I meant.
An Internet search shows that a few other people had similar problems, but no solution...

What other kernel version did you try? Was the ...

I think the amdgpu-related configuration looks ok. It is similar to mine, but I have a much older card.
Some ideas I have right now, in case something helps:
you compiled the AMDGPU driver as a module, so it is not needed to include the firmware files into the kernel; you could remove all of them ...

NyneR, could you post here a link to your kernel config?
To see the exact options that you selected for the graphics drivers.

mikefot, it is not clear from your last post: did you also update the entry for /boot/efi in /etc/fstab? How does it look like?

I admit that I dont't fully understand all the details, but: the original grub.cfg mentions hd2, while the bootable entries listed by efibootmgr contain hd1.
Maybe the grub config file needs to be re-generated?

the EFI partition sits on an dedicated partition (sdf2),. the table can be seen at the first post of this topic.
I think this is the only course left. I really don't want to reinstall the os. seems illogical.


I am also pretty sure that a reinstall is not needed.

I meant something different ...

DaggyStyle, I have a few ideas of where to look at, maybe something will help
If option 1 in your boot manager gets you to a Grub rescue prompt, it means that it can find Grub. Is there another Grub installation besides the one you have on the USB stick?
If the one it finds is the one on the stick ...

statikregimen, if you compiled flightgear with the qt5 flag, you can start it with fgfs --launcher This gives you a GUI launcher, where you can configure various settings and also set the aircraft search path or download additional aircraft.

Without it, maybe you can use some of the options shown ...
