I'm trying to compile a newer version of devicekit-power (currently I have 009) so maybe I can suspend/hibernate my laptop again, after I updated the kernel. I installed every package "./configure" asked, so it made a Makefile. When I use "make", it builds a few files, then I get this error:

Also, is upower-0.90/91 the same thing but newer?
it's possible to compile the 2.6.37 kernel patched with the autogroup patch on a Slackware 13.1 system running 2.6.33.4-smp with 2.6.33.4 headers? I just compiled and installed the 2.6.37-autogroup kernel from AUR on my ARCH setup and I like it especially when using firefox with lots of tabs open and other background apps also running. I did notice a speed and smothness difference in my ARCH testing setup with this kernel patch and I can get same results in 13.1??

after upgrading to make 3.82, I can not compile the newest kernel: 2.6.35-rc6-git5，it failed with:

Maybe 3.82 has some backward-incompatibility that breaks kernel compilation.

"Upgraded" to the 2.6.38.4 kernel this morning and now Truecyrpt fails to mount encyprted files and returns the message:

As Truecyprt worked just prior to installing 2.6.38.4, would it be safe to assume there is some sort of conflict?
I have Slackware 13.0 installed with the newest stable kernel (2.6.32.3) on an hp notebook with ati hd3200 igp. What happens is that when I try to buildpkg the catalyst drivers, it fails on the new kernel but not on the original one. I've been searching for a solution for a few days now. found a few that involved patching some files, but none seem to work or I can't make them work. I could probably use the binary installer but I would prefer not to.
Here's the output:
Code:

I had an issue with the module build for vbox 3.1.2 breaking on the latest kernel ( /etc/rc.d/rc.vboxdrv setup ). Apparently the issue is that a kernel header (autoconf.h ) has changed its location in the module tree and hence the issue.
2 options:
1. upgrade to 3.1.4
2. create a symlink as follows
cd /usr/src/linux/include/linux
ln -s ../generated/autoconf.h autoconf.h
I try to cross compile httpd for power pc.It seems that configure doesn't detect cross compilation. The first error was that sizeof (void*) is less than (long), so I have commented out that check (I think it is a hard work around). I've got another error ./dftables: cannoct execute binary file. Why it tries to execute binary for ppc on x86 machine?This is my build script.

the original problem: devkit-daemon is growing in memory size, after a few minutes it reaches ~2GB
I investigated: two other processes are using abot 30% CPU:
/usr/libexec/gdu-notification-daemon
/usr/libexec/gvfs-gdu-volume-monitor
dbus-monitor --system shows the following, every second:
Code:
signal sender=org.freedesktop.DBus -> dest=(null destination) serial=6 path=/org/freedesktop/DBus; interface=org.freedesktop.DBus; member=NameOwnerChanged
string "org.freedesktop.DeviceKit.Disks"
string ""

I'm not entirely happy with this solution though
udev monitoring does not show anything. I have some 10+ LVMs, LUKS encrypted partitions, soft raid devices, AoE drive (with LVM and LUKS on top), custom loop encrypted disks - probably one of them is causing the DeviceKit to barf, I will try to find out which one (not that it will help - I won't refrain from using any hard drive just because DeviceKit doesn't like it, you know)
Questions:
- why does this deamon grow in memory (it happens very fast)?
- why is DeviceKit.DEisks restart every second or so? How can I track that?
- how to disable this ****? I don't think I need it
The system is Fedora 11 x64_64.
i want to compile the vanilla kernel 2.6.37-rc3, but i want to obtain a .rpm file.

The program is vfdecrypt which if you are unaware is used to decrypt (among other things) .dmg files such as those found on apple hardware. Here are the relevant definitions:

Surrounding lines use %llu for 64 bit numbers, so I'm assuming %lu is correct for 32bit, at least for the gcc they compiled with. Removing the line, since it is only user output, causes the program to hang on load and not show any output at all. I also tried compiling with -fno-builtin-fprintf thinking maybe my gcc was radically different than theirs and was doing something funky, and it did compile w/o errors, however it went back to not showing any output.
I have fetched the source from muliple sites in order to check the consistancy of this line and every version has it exactly as shown, so I'm thinking that the gcc ubuntu 9.04 ships with might not be a similar enough fork to the one used by the dev of this code.

View 8 Replies View RelatedI've got an OLD computer I'm using as a server, the thing does not support ACPI, so we're in APM-land. The thing works fine w/ Debian Lenny. I have apmd installed and my /etc/modules file has an apm entry in it. It does a powerdown and everything is happy. I don't even need to add an apm entry on the kernel line in my menu.lst file. Then I decide to upgrade the box to the testing (squeeze) branch, making the appropriate additions to my sources.list file.
And everything goes to hell with apm. I don't know if it's GRUB2 (grub-pc) or not, all I know is that I can't get a powerdown on the machine. I've done a reinstall, via a netinstall CD, twice to verify this behavior. I can't find squat via Google on this other than someone else mentioning that the upgrade to GRUB2 killed apm. While I can just reach over and hold the power button for a few seconds to get a powerdown, I assume that every problem is solved by a simple entry in a config file.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to compile the D-Link netcard driver from the official source, and when I first ran "make," I got an error that "make" couldn't be found. So I installed "apt-get install make," then make told me that it needed gcc, I installed "apt-get install gcc." Now make says: make: *** /lib/modules/2.6.32-5-amd64/build: No such file or directory. Stop. make: *** [LINUX] Error 2 and exits.
I suspect that I need to install some package group which will handle the make and make install (rather than manually trying to fix one hole after another)
I have observed a problem twice now with Apache trying to restart but hanging somewhere in the process. This happens after a power failure; the machine comes back just fine, but not the web server. The machine is on a UPS, but occasionally it runs out of "juice" before someone can get to it (we have a generator for emergencies). When this happens, a ps indicates about three processes running that are trying to start Apache, but they just sit there - this time for three days since the power failure was on a Friday. I can fix this by killing those processes and doing an Apache restart - but that takes human intervention, which is not acceptable.
I suspect this may have to do with SSL, since when I do a manual restart it asks me for the SSL password. There must be some way around this so the system can recover on its own. This system's web site runs under SSL since it maintains medical information that must by law be protected. But it also could be life-threatening to someone if the system can't come back and as a result a person can't get help.
So I would appreciate some guidance as to what I could change that would allow for system recovery without intervention. I'm happy to provide any configuration file info, if you tell me where to look.
I'm very new to Linux and recently setup a desktop PC with Puppy 5.2.5. only. I chose to have a permanent install on the hard drive and loaded additional PETS and utilities as I thought needed for my use. Last night after immediately booting up the PC I had a power cut lasting a few minutes. When power returned and I repowered the PC, I found during Puppy's boot sequence it reported an error and remained in what appeared to be a console mode - did not carry through and load my desktop. So I inserted the Puppy CD and booted from that but I'm afraid I'm not familiar enough with Linux to understand how I can get back my original desktop setup and run once again from my hard drive without having to go back to scratch.

(Crud being incremental backups, windows software, and similar things.)(I also want to get rid of the FAT32 file system that they use.) These are USB 1TB drives. The theory is that data is written to it once, but read back a number of times. (I also burn that data to DVD. If there was software that could organize 5TB of data on DVDs, I'd be using them.)

I have a small problem on my Compaq Evo Centos 5.4 web server. The web server runs just fine, the problem is it fails to restart from a power outage. Simple edit the BIOS. No! For a reason I can't think of the keyboard stops working after a few key strokes following the F10 to enter BIOS setup. Then its a power cycle. If left to BOOT the PC and keyboard are fine. After hearing about viruses which get to the BIOS I will ask can NIX get that far so I can adjust the Power ON?
