by arnuld 22 Dec '06

22 Dec '06

hai all, i have installed CRUX 2.2 i686 onto my AMD 64. everything works fine except that when i use "Windowmaker" my mouse does not work. it shows the "mouse pointer" but mouse pointer cannot be moved, it has *stopped*, as if it got *stuck* in the center of the screen. what is the trouble? here is the relevent part of "/etc/X11/xorg.conf": ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "X.org Configured" Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0 InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer" InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard" Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Mouse0" Driver "mouse" Option "Protocol" "auto" Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5 6 7" EndSection -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- arnuld http://arnuld.blogspot.com/

64 bit 32 bit
by Joe Gilmour 22 Dec '06

22 Dec '06

I've read a bit about 64 vs 32 bit for desktop machines but have been wondering a bit about it all lately. My hardware is a core 2 duo which supports 64 bit, nvidia pci-e and 4 Gb RAM (all about 3 months old). I'm running up to date CRUX 2.2 32 bit. I've been using the following pkgmk.conf export CFLAGS="-O2 -march=nocona -pipe" export CXXFLAGS="-O2 -march=nocona -pipe" And just about everything works fine (some weird firefox hanging problem but that's another story). I tried using: export CFLAGS="-O2 -march=x86-64 -pipe" export CXXFLAGS="-O2 -march=x86-64 -pipe" In pkgmk.conf and rebuilt bzip2 to test and it's actually faster (tested a large file) and it runs. So I got a bit more adventurous and tried compiling firefox and thunderbird with x86-64 CFLAGS and they seem to work too. Firefox (hanging seems to have stopped but I haven't tested fully) seems to run faster, rendering pages just seems faster than before. Has anyone else played with CFLAGS and 64 bit options? Because I'm using a 32 bit toolchain does it just ignore the x86-64 CFLAGS and resort to basic cpu flags? If so why would they be faster than nocona? Any thoughts? Ideally I'd like to run a pure 64 bit system but I'm not really that fussed. Thanks, Joe

problem building gstreamer-plugins-ffmpeg
by Theo Kanter 21 Dec '06

21 Dec '06

Matt, I checked with a colleague who has the same problem building gstreamer-plugins-ffmpeg -- see below; and who found the cause & a workaround. An inspection of config.log created with pkgmk -kw revealed "/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lX11". Thus we retried with 'LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/X11R6/lib pkgmk' which was successful. Therefore I added a line with 'export LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/X11R6/lib pkgmk' to '/etc/pkgmk.conf' in order to be safe. Perhaps you would like to check whether you have anything defined in your environment that enabled you to build this package without taking these extra measures. prt-get: updating /usr/ports/contrib/gstreamer-plugins-ffmpeg =======> Building '/usr/ports/contrib/gstreamer-plugins-ffmpeg/gstreamer-plugins-ffmpeg#0.10.1-1.pkg.tar.gz'. tar -C /usr/ports/contrib/gstreamer-plugins-ffmpeg/work/src --use-compress-program=gzip -xf /usr/ports/contrib/gstreamer-plugins-ffmpeg/gst-ffmpeg-0.10.1.tar.gz + build + cd gst-ffmpeg-0.10.1 + ./configure LIBS=-lX11 --prefix=/usr checking build system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu checking host system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu checking target system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu checking whether to enable maintainer-specific portions of Makefiles... no configure: configuring gst-ffmpeg for release checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c checking whether build environment is sane... yes checking for gawk... gawk checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes checking for style of include used by make...

lenia: the package manager for CRUX PPC (and CRUX)
by acrux 19 Dec '06

19 Dec '06

two new patches for our tool: ilenia patch #2 Released a new (incremental) patch for ilenia that solves a bug while executing (pre,post)-install scripts. patch #1 With this patch ilenia is smarter in managing supfiles (cruxppc users will be very happy, ilenia can manage their (our) ppc.*.cvs); to update a single repository the user must supply the name of the repository and not the name of the supfile without extension. This patch solves also a bug while working with alias. the updated port here: http://acrux.homelinux.org:8080/crux/repos/ilenia/ greetz, -- vesuvio | LinuxMachine 156116 powered by GNU/Linux CRUX SIP: 652969(a)ekiga.net # GnuPG/PGP Key_ID: 0x378EECB8

which_repos script
by Nick Deubert 12 Dec '06

12 Dec '06

Hey Everyone, After a while I've managed to add quite a few other peoples repositories to my ports tree and it got to be a task trying to figure out which ones came from where and which ones were obsolete (no longer in any of the repos). So I wrote this perl script to figure it out for me and thought someone else might find it useful too. Also I included another really simple script to strip out the core ports from listorphans. Feel free to send me feedback. Nick

Hello, I tried udev and it didn't work. I tired other thing but i failed. Finally, I tried to add 'index' options to modules. I've restarted machine 3 times and all the time SB64 is first card. Maybe it works. My /etc/modprobe.conf: # # /etc/modprobe.conf: modprobe(8) configuration # alias char-major-89 i2c-dev #SOUND CARDS options snd-ens1370 index=0 options snd-intel8x0 index=1 I found other solution, but I haven't tried. http://alsa.opensrc.org/MultipleCards Wawrzek -- Wawrzyniec Niewodniczański WWW: http://larryn.blogspot.com/ vel LarryN E-MAIL: wawrzyniec.niewodniczanski[na]pwr.wroc.pl PhD student @ JID: larryn(a)chrome.pl Wroclaw University of Technology TEL: +48(071)320-2894

xfce4 ports
by Juergen Daubert 11 Dec '06

11 Dec '06

Hello, I've moved the ports for xfce 4.4 from my private httpup-repo [1] to an official place on crux.nu. For now the ports are available with git, rsync will follow. I removed the xfce 4.2 ports from the 2.3 branch of opt as well. To get the ports you have to install git and run the following commands: git clone git://crux.nu/ports/xfce cd xfce git checkout 2.2 Please report any problems, contribution to this repo, e.g. xfce-goodies ports, are appreciated. kind regards Juergen [1] http://jue.li/crux/xfce4-beta/ -- Juergen Daubert | mailto:jue@jue.li Korb, Germany | http://jue.li/crux
