Yes. First, be grateful that it failed. You should use an ebuild to wrap the install so that its files are tracked. Had you succeeded in installing by hand, it would become your responsibility to track the location of all installed files. Second, if you need help, post the error message. We do not know your system configuration, so unless the package is severely broken upstream, it is unlikely that we can quickly reproduce the same failure you saw. If the error message is long, use app-text/wgetpaste to upload the build log to a pastebin service, then post here the URL returned. |

I recently noticed my Firewire mixers suddenly stopped being recognized by Cadence when they were seen by gscanbus.
It turns out a recent update switched from the Gentoo Studio overlay's jack2 to Portage's jack2, which disables the ieee1394 use flag. Gentoo Studio supports Firewire devices, so the Portage version will be masked until it enables the use of ieee1394 FireWire devices.
If you just did an update and are struggling with your Firewire audio devices suddenly not working and getting JACK failures, do:
Code: |
emerge jack2::GentooStudio
|
and put the Portage version in package.mask with
Code: |
echo "media-sound/jack2::gentoo" >> /etc/portage/package.mask/media-sound
|

Hey, thanks for your work.
So i have no wireless connection with this version, i need the ath10k driver and nmtui (networkmanager).
Can you add that in your next version ?
All went perfectly except that. (Uefi) |

In the meantime, anyone who installed the beta should use ufed or edit make.conf so that bindist is not set. If using ufed, set it so it's neither + nor -. If editing make.conf, just remove the bindist use flag. It should not have been set to begin with, and I was probably trying to troubleshoot something when I set it. I apologize for any trouble this may have caused. |
I thought the bindist was to prevent distributing binaries with patents. To avoid legal stuff.
You might want to keep it in there? And then let users agree to remove it on install? |

Hm, I'm surprised genkernel didn't take care of that. Make sure rt-sources is installed (it's uninstalled in the tarball to shrink the download size) and run genkernel --menuconfig all. (Also make sure the boot partition is mounted first.) Search for the ath10k driver and nmtui. Please let me know if you find them and I'll add it to the pile to make those default settings.
I'm glad the rest of it worked!

Yeah i've tested and genkernel didn't care about this driver. It is included in menuconfig in the wireless section.
Nmtui is a part of networkmanager ebuild.
I noticed you only installed dhpcd which is for desktop. |

Networkmanager used to be part of the install. On my regular Gentoo machines, NM and Wicd play ping-pong depending on which one breaks on an update. But I actually think it would be a good thing to have NM included, so I'm going to look into that.
EDIT: Added in dev, adding nm-applet, too. User can customize if nm-applet isn't wanted.

There is nothing patented in Gentoo Studio, and anyway, it's not an installation from which redistribution even makes sense. | If you are distributing tbz2 files built from packages that respect USE=bindist, it's legally safer to set it there, even if it might not be necessary. There's no need to set it in the configuration files, so users can rebuild with it off as soon as they switch to your configuration files. |

Hello Audiodef,
I've just done a fresh automated install of Gentoo Studio (complete) on a laptop (dell xps 15 l501x - core i3). Here's a quick feedback : the process went globally well and the first reboot was successful. So many thanks for the good work !
That said, a few packages failed to emerge during install (zziplib, texlive-core, texlive-basic and texlive-metapost). I emerged zziplib without problem after first reboot but not the texlive stuff yet.
Also the cpuinfo2cpuflags-x86 command was not found (line 77 in chroot_install.sh). I had to emerge the package later on.
The initial keyboard layout is qwerty (us) while mine needs to be set to fr ( = azerty) : the initial login (text console or graphical in lightdm) can be tricky if the password is complex. I'm used to it so was easy but it would help if it could be set during installation.
I emerged some packages after first boot and I needed to perform an etc-update. I accidentally said yes to overwrite limits.conf :-( and am now looking for the proper values to be set. Where can I find them ? It could be indicated on the Installation page of gentoostudio.org where you warn against updating the file ;-)
best regards,
ymi _________________ ymi |

ymi,
Thank you. I'm glad you're enjoying it. I apologize for the small breakage. I've hit a few bumps in the road making some changes to the files that build the installation. It looks like you took care of them perfectly.

Yes, I've noticed this during a test install as well. Not sure why. I'm still looking into it.

It turned out that there are two versions of this package. I've masked version 5 so only version 1 gets installed. Version 1 has the command with the correct output format needed by Gentoo Studio. Version 5 got picked up by the latest installation before I caught it.

This seems to be a popular request, so I should look into this sooner than later so users can select their keyboard layout during installation.

I updated the technical details page. If you go there, there's a link to limits.conf, and you can copy it back to your system. https://gentoostudio.org/?page_id=174
Just let me know if you need anything else. _________________ decibel Linux: https://decibellinux.org
