[opensuse] Question on building glibc
by Dieter Jurzitza 27 Jul '07

27 Jul '07

Dear listmembers, maybe offtopic, but maybe someone could give me a pointer where to ask / what to do. I upgraded my good old SuSE 9.3 to gcc 4.1.2, I made the kernel 2.6.11 build with that compiler (was some work) and now I finally managed to make glibc-2.3.4-23.9 from the 9.3 distribution build given this combination of gcc / kernel - yes, well, with two issues: 1.) /* major issue IMHO */ one test fails, tst-signal1.c gives the output (tst-signal1.out): sending the signal now sigwait returned with Interrupted system call (4) thread joined?! child wasn't signalled The "child wasn't signalled message breaks the build, does someone has an idea what could be the root cause for this issue? Should one build in single user mode / any special precautions for glibc? 2.) /* minor issue IMHO but still not nice */ one of the math test fails too due to insufficient precision (test-float.out): testing float (without inline functions) Failure: Test: Real part of: cacosh (-2 - 3 i) == -1.9833870299165354323470769028940395 + 2.1414491111159960199416055713254211 i Result: is: -1.98338651657104492188e+00 -0x1.fbbf3800000000000000p+0 should be: -1.98338699340820312500e+00 -0x1.fbbf4000000000000000p+0 difference: 4.76837158203125000000e-07 0x1.00000000000000000000p-21 ulp : 4.0000 max.ulp : 0.0000 Failure: Test: Imaginary part of: cacosh (-2 - 3 i) == -1.9833870299165354323470769028940395 + 2.1414491111159960199416055713254211 i Result: is: 2.14144825935363769531e+00 0x1.121afa00000000000000p+1 should be: 2.14144921302795410156e+00 0x1.121b0200000000000000p+1 difference: 9.53674316406250000000e-07 0x1.00000000000000000000p-20 ulp : 4.0000 max.ulp : 0.0000 Test suite completed: 2599 test cases plus 2384 tests for exception flags executed. 2 errors occurred. I "glued" plasters over both of the failures, IMHO the second failure might be a rounding issue at 10^-6 error size - not that bad. The first error makes me headaches, but maybe someone on the list can remove it for me :-):-) Is there anything with regard to the CFLAGS that stem from rpm that should be obeyed / taken care for? _Should_ one build as super user? Thank you very much, take care Dieter Jurzitza -- ----------------------------------------------------------- | \ /\_/\ | | ~x~ |/-----\ / \ /- \_/ ^^__ _ / _ ____ / <°°__ \- \_/ | |/ | | || || _| _| _| _| if you really want to see the pictures above - use some font with constant spacing like courier! :-) ----------------------------------------------------------- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] AutoYast: Could not set patterns or selections: novell-ncl
by Ryan McCain 27 Jul '07

27 Jul '07

We are trying to use AutoYast to automate installs of SLED on employees PCs. Everything works smoothly except when we attempt to install the Novell Client via the add-on feature. It worked fine on SLED10 SP0, but bombs out on SLED 10 SP1. Right before it begins to format the drives I get this error: "Could not set patterns or selections: novell-ncl". Here is my autoyast.xml file: <?xml version="1.0"?> <!DOCTYPE profile SYSTEM "/usr/share/autoinstall/dtd/profile.dtd"> <profile xmlns="http://www.suse.com/1.0/yast2ns" xmlns:config="http://www.suse.com/1.0/configns"> <add-on> <add_on_products config:type="list"> <listentry> <media_url>http://dss-cs99la36/installs/ncl/</media_url> <product>Novell-Client-for-Linux-i386</product> <product_dir>/</product_dir> </listentry> </add_on_products> </add-on> <firewall> <FW_DEV_DMZ></FW_DEV_DMZ> <FW_DEV_EXT></FW_DEV_EXT> <FW_DEV_INT></FW_DEV_INT> <enable_firewall config:type="boolean">false</enable_firewall> <start_firewall config:type="boolean">false</start_firewall> </firewall> <general> <mode> <confirm config:type="boolean">false</confirm> <second_stage config:type="boolean">true</second_stage> </mode> <mouse> <id>none</id> </mouse> <signature-handling> <accept_file_without_checksum config:type="boolean">true</accept_file_without_checksum> <accept_unknown_gpg_key config:type="boolean">true</accept_unknown_gpg_key> <accept_unsigned_file config:type="boolean">true</accept_unsigned_file> <accept_verification_failed config:type="boolean">true</accept_verification_failed> <import_gpg_key config:type="boolean">true</import_gpg_key> </signature-handling> </general> <groups config:type="list"/> <networking> <dhcp_options> <dhclient_additional_options></dhclient_additional_options> <dhclient_client_id></dhclient_client_id> <dhclient_hostname_option>AUTO</dhclient_hostname_option> </dhcp_options> <dns> <dhcp_hostname config:type="boolean">false</dhcp_hostname> <dhcp_resolv config:type="boolean">true</dhcp_resolv> </dns> <interfaces config:type="list"> <interface> <bootproto>dhcp</bootproto> <device>eth0</device> <startmode>auto</startmode> <usercontrol>no</usercontrol> </interface> </interfaces> <managed config:type="boolean">false</managed> <modules config:type="list"> <module_entry> <device>static-0</device> <module></module> <options></options> </module_entry> </modules> <routing> <ip_forward config:type="boolean">false</ip_forward> </routing> </networking>  <ntp-client> <configure_dhcp config:type="boolean">false</configure_dhcp> <peers config:type="list"> <peer> <address>time</address> <initial_sync config:type="boolean">true</initial_sync> <options></options> <type>server</type> </peer> </peers> <start_at_boot config:type="boolean">true</start_at_boot> <start_in_chroot config:type="boolean">false</start_in_chroot> </ntp-client> <sysconfig config:type="list" > <sysconfig_entry> <sysconfig_key>HTTP_PROXY</sysconfig_key> <sysconfig_path>/etc/sysconfig/proxy</sysconfig_path> <sysconfig_value>proxy:8080</sysconfig_value> </sysconfig_entry> <sysconfig_entry> <sysconfig_key>FTP_PROXY</sysconfig_key> <sysconfig_path>/etc/sysconfig/proxy</sysconfig_path> <sysconfig_value>proxy-iberv:8080</sysconfig_value> </sysconfig_entry> </sysconfig> <partitioning config:type="list"> <drive> <initialize config:type="boolean">true</initialize> <partitions config:type="list"/> <type config:type="symbol">CT_DISK</type> <use>all</use> </drive> </partitioning> <power-management> <global_settings> <DISABLE_USER_STANDBY>yes</DISABLE_USER_STANDBY> <DISABLE_USER_SUSPEND2DISK>yes</DISABLE_USER_SUSPEND2DISK> <DISABLE_USER_SUSPEND2RAM>yes</DISABLE_USER_SUSPEND2RAM> <EVENT_BUTTON_LID_CLOSED>ignore</EVENT_BUTTON_LID_CLOSED> <EVENT_BUTTON_POWER>wm_shutdown</EVENT_BUTTON_POWER> <EVENT_BUTTON_SLEEP>ignore</EVENT_BUTTON_SLEEP> </global_settings> </power-management> <runlevel> <default>5</default> </runlevel> <scripts> <init-scripts config:type="list"> <script> <debug config:type="boolean">true</debug> <filename>zmd-install</filename> <source><![CDATA[#!/bin/bash if [ !

[opensuse] calling yast2 from xkce - no su prompt
by Gordon J. Holtslander 27 Jul '07

27 Jul '07

Hi: Continuing to work on the system I've installed xfce on opensuse 10.2 An xfce menu for yast2 is available,. but when selected it doesn't prompt for the root password, and only offers a couple of modules. Its not possible to install software or configure anything. I'm setting this system up for someone who has never used linux before - I would like to provide him with the ability to conveniently add software and configure the system. Can the menu item be modified so that it prompts for the root password?

[opensuse] boot partition too small
by Patrick 27 Jul '07

27 Jul '07

For as long as I can remember I've set up a /boot partition with 15MB. Recently, however, routine kernel security updates (Suse 10.2) need slightly more space on /boot to perform the updates. What would be the safest way to get around this? I've thought of moving some symlinked files to another partition, performing update and then returning file to /boot. For example, vmlinuz points to vmlinuz-2.6.18.8-0.1-default which is on /boot. vmlinuz -> vmlinuz-2.6.18.8-0.1-default If I move vmlinuz-2.6.18.8-0.1-default to root "/", update and move it back then I should be OK. Is there something I might be overlooking that could lead to a catastrophe? Also, this process is an awkward workaround. Is there a better approach?

Hello, we have a SUSE system that we upgraded from 9. something to 10.2 64bit. Several things are not loading, most importantly our EMC Retrospect backup client. Here is the error: /usr/local/dantz/client/retroclient: relocation error: /lib/i686/ libc.so.6: symbol _dl_out_of_memory, version GLIBC_PRIVATE not defined in file ld-linux.so.2 with link time reference Google research indicates this is some kind of shared library error. Does anyone have any suggestions that could help resolve this?

[opensuse] w00t! We've got screen capture!

After failing miserably for years trying to get a reasonable screen capture program for Linux, I finally have something working! I had tried xvidcap and other x11/vnc options before reading about istanbul the other day. Thinking it would work I tried it out. It failed as well. Yesterday, I tried out gtk-recordMyDesktop installed via SMART and it works!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mQAjPIZR2dg There's a cheesy YouTube video of my donutmonster application running on Linux. http://recordmydesktop.iovar.org/index.php I'm very happy now!!
