I have an additional update:

Besides /dev/pts, there were additional file systems that were being remounted as read-only. This got me to grep for the remount text in /etc and it led me to /etc/init.d/halt.sh


mobus etc # grep -R "Remounting remaining filesystems" *

There has been limited progress on the /dev/pts issue as follows:

A user Guido Jaekel (sp?) on the lxc-users mailing list has offered the following (and a larger description of what is going on) which I verify to work:


After applying an

the container will ...

I'm hoping that some of the experienced LXC users in here can help me out with a couple of errors.

I've used the lxc-gentoo script to produce a container and so far it gets me to a booting container which seems to work, but with the following issues:

1) I get the following message on boot ...

Section "Device"
Identifier "ATI ES1000"
Driver "fglrx"
#VideoRam 16384
# Insert Clocks lines here if appropriate
EndSection

I had success using "radeon" in place of "fglrx"

Remove /var/cache/edb/vdb_metadata.pickle then.

I was having the same problem. The final process that I derived from your posts here was:

Howdy! I'm somewhat stuck in the middle of an emerge update world. kdelibs-3.5.2-r6 does not seem to want to build at all, seemingly due to a lack of lualib50 (not a typo, not liblua50.so). The output at the end of the emerge is as follows:

Hi,

package.unmask is obsolete, use package.keywords instead e.g.:



Are you sure? Is it possible you are confusing:

/usr/portage/profiles/package.mask

and

/etc/portage/package.mask

Cheers,

Buzz


The following should allow mod_php 5.0.4 to be pulled in:

Buzz - I took your advice and did all your steps
1. unmerge mplayer
2. move all my settings for backup (/etc/mplayer.conf and the version in my home directory)
3. set the ~x86 in /etc/portage/package.keywords
4. emerge -uavD xine-ui xine-lib mplayer

But still have no luck. Any other ideas? I ...

Add "nvidia" to USE. I noticed it missing in Buzz's output of `emerge -vp mplayer`.

That's because I use an ati video card on that machine. :) The effect seems unrelated to the brand of video card being used, or at least it appears to affect both brands.

Cheers,

Buzz

I have the same problem with gmplayer (fullscreen with "f" and pause with space not working properly). It started after I upgraded the Kernel from 2.6.7 to 2.6.12-rc1. I'm not sure what the problem is. Perhaps a timing issue.

The two keys still work properly when the interface window (the one with ...

This is something new I haven't came across before. Anyways, when I run gmplayer, the mplayer GUI. The gui doesn't retain its regular colors. Everything is blue.

Here is a screenshot of it: http://img146.exs.cx/img146/6791/200504021451481024x768scrot9vk.png

OMG. Can´t you read plain English instructions provided by the ebuild? :roll:


This collision exists b/c two or more packages provide the same files. You need to apply common sense , that´s enough. If it does not help, then sorry. The mailbase ebuild was made exactly to get rid of this, duh ...

it works for me too, zend ide stopped working when i recompiled glibc with nptl. i was looking for solution two whole days :evil:

it seems to be that you didn't compile your php with session-support

it should function

The only problem that I have had with using USE on the command line like that is that it won't be remembered during recompiles and upgrades to that package. To have it ...

solved. radeonfb and gen/bootsplash don't really like each other...

I can also verify this. I got garbled information at the bottom of the screen when radeonfb was compiled into the kernel. removing radeon and only adding in support for vesafb-tng was the only way everything ...

Hi,

I use kmail as my mail client, and I have a very strange problem : it always displays that I have "1 not read message".


I realize you've said all your emails are read in any folder. I'm just curious if you included 'trash' in that list. The trash folder can also register as giving new mail ...

ha! I did the -gnome and -gtk already, but thanks... dunno why I never thought of using a wildcard in USE. That can be pretty handy...

In general it is a bad idea to re-encode from one lossy format to another (or from one to itself at a different bitrate).


I'm also interested in downgrading some of my mp3's... The reason is simply to fit more on my mp3 player. I generally rip my cd's at 320 cbr and then toss the ones I want to ...

Either of those cards are total overkill if you just want decent dual monitor support, an FX5200 would do that just fine. Just make sure whatever card you get comes with a dvi->vga adaptor if you need one, they're usually way overpriced when sold separately.


Thank you for the suggestions. I did ...

My motherboard went belly up and I am using this as an excuse to upgrade my machine. :) Everything is going ok, but I am having some problem deciding about video cards.

Hi,

I've been using pan for a couple of weeks and I love it, but there is one little thing that annoys me, and that is when I have a lot of newsgroups subscribed I want to bet able to group similiar newsgroups in a folder. Does anyone know how I can do this in pan? Thanks.

I'm having a frustrating time installing this package. I've searched and found something similar with no resolution (version 2.1.40-r3). I am hoping I'm not the only one having this problem.
