On an x86 machine with kernel 2.6.17-gentoo-r4, I did "eix-sync" and |
| 2 |
"emerge -NauvD system" and received a response including the following line: |
| 3 |
|
| 4 |
[blocks B ] >=sys-fs/udev-126 (">=sys-fs/udev-126" is blocking |
| 5 |
sys-fs/cryptsetup-1.0.5-r1) |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
Doing "emerge -p -C udev" elicited the following lines: |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
!!! 'sys-fs/udev' is part of your system profile. |
| 10 |
!!! Unmerging it may be damaging to your system. |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
Looking for a safer fix for the blockage, I did "emerge -C cryptsetup". |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
Repeating "emerge -NauvD system", produced output including the following: |
| 15 |
|

After doing "emerge --resume --skipfirst" a few more times I got a |
| 221 |
seemingly clean ending: |
| 222 |
>>> Auto-cleaning packages... |
| 223 |
>>> No outdated packages were found on your system. |
| 224 |
|
| 225 |
At that point I had the impression that the machine was not up-to-date |
| 226 |
but nonetheless functional. However, the next morning I noticed that |
| 227 |
the computer would not print to my local printer. Using the CUPS menu |
| 228 |
did not rectify the problem. When I rebooted, the machine wouldn't |
| 229 |
start X and the mouse wouldn't work. Rebooting again, I used the Grub |
| 230 |
menu to select an old reliable configuration which allowed me to login |
| 231 |
at a command line interface but did allow me to start X. |
| 232 |
|
| 233 |
I would be grateful for suggestions about how to diagnose and fix the |
| 234 |
above noted problems with cryptsetup, printer, mouse, and X. |
