the power went off during emerge -e world :evil:

the new baselayout trashed my network. I can fix it (I think) but would have to start the emerge -e world over. Any suggestions?

Hello!
I just wanted to know if it's still usefull to prelink with all those linker patches?

I found another problem. Xpdf failed to start. There was some problem with "Unresolved inheritance operation". I've recompiled libXt with LDFLAGS="" and problem dissapeared..

follow up. I was emerging openmotif as part of xorg. when I emerged it my itself, it pulled in the missing dependency.

cheater, I set up identical systems with tuned ext3 and reiser4. What's a good way to benchmark each?

thanks a lot bigbob73.

I think it is not a question, the conrad guide will be using reiser4.
----

Here is a change happening to the conrad projects.

Nesl247 is breaking apart to maintain his own personal install guide, I am staying with conrad gentoo projects as always, to bring you all the usual projects.

The new LiveCD 1.0.0 is being built from scratch, so it will be incredible and a lot lighter. it will also feature no-sources 2.6.16 (no _rc release) It will be around soon enough

The new Install Guide 2.5.0 is reverting to old traditions (1.5.0), but keeping that extra special feeling in performance and many other aspects. It will use a gcc 4.1 snapshot ebuild (made by me), glibc-2.3.6-r3 by nxsty but modified by me, the latest binutils 2.16.91* in portage, but patched with Bdirect by me. There will be no root-overlay package.

The new project LuckyLive32/64 will be based off of the new install guide, and will be maintained my mpalancia, it will be an installable X-LiveCD featuring KDE, so you can get conrad quick and pretty

The new project Conrad Stage3's will be based off of the install guide, it will be maintained by me (cheater-conrad), it will feature a few important architectures (i686/athlon-xp/pentium4/pentium3) it will be used for a quick conrad setup.

THe new no-sources release (2.6.16), will be a stable release, it will still feature mutexes, but it wont be as heavy as the current (2.6.16_rc4-no1) kernel, it has tons of performance patches, I hope to make one that still performs, but will be more stable.

Stay tuned

You can come by #conrad in freenode if you have any further questions.

I __really__ don't want to start a filesystem flamewar here, but what you said is just not true. I think you can't say that ext3 corrupts more often then reiser. There are so many stories that tell us the opposite, but also a lot othere that probaly confirm what you said.

So nevermind, but for me reiserfs once sucked and now I am using ext3.

Have a nice day.

Just so you know reiserfs is completely different from reiser4 since reiser4 is atomic. I've hard rebooted my system several times with reiser4 and it hasn't failed me yet.

I would get a corrupt system with reiserfs and ext3 if I did this too often.
