9 Since this was a gargantuan update on my part, I, of course, ran
10 revdep-rebuild immediately after the emerge --update --deep world
11
12 Then I ran etc-update and checked all the files.
13
14 I boot into console so there's hardly anything at all there in
15 /etc/rc.conf
16
17 no log in /var/log/everything/, nor in dmesg. Whatever it was it has
18 to be userland. All I know so far is from /var/log/Xorg.0.log which
19 tells me that X died on SEGV, and a line in the console where I
20 started X from that reads something like "Enlightenment caused a
21 seg fault".
22
23 Right now I am running X with
24 $ xinit > Xerror 2>&1
25 to see if I can capture the entire stderr that was printed (some
26 floated off screen so the only thing I saw was effectively that
27 enlightenment was bad).

29 Question: During the update, there were 2 or 3 packages that I wasn't
30 able to update due to sandbox violations. I've been intending to
31 check into that later on this week. Those were dependencies of
32 mplayer and were not, as far as I know, dependencies of enlightenment
33 or X. I am hoping that those aren't the packages.

37 I cannot go to school today"
38 Said little Peggy Ann McKay.
39 "I have the measles and the mumps,
40 A gash, a rash and purple bumps.
41 My mouth is wet, my throat is dry.
42 I'm going blind in my right eye.
43 My tonsils are as big as rocks,
44 I've counted sixteen chicken pox
45 And there's one more-that's seventeen,
46 And don't you think my face looks green?
47 My leg is cut, my eyes are blue
48 It might be instamatic flu.
49 I cough and sneeze and gasp and choke,
50 I'm sure that my left leg is broke
51 My hip hurts when I move my chin,
52 My belly button's caving in,
53 My back is wrenched, my ankle's sprained,
54 My 'pendix pains each time it rains.
55 My toes is cold, my toes are numb,
56 I have a sliver in my thumb.
57 My neck is stiff, my voice is weak,
58 I hardly whisper when I speak.
59 My tongue is filling up my mouth,
60 I think my hair is falling out.
61 My elbow's bent, my spine ain't straight,
62 My temperature is one-o-eight.
63 My brain is shrunk, I cannot hear,
64 There's a hole inside my ear.
65 I have a hangnail, and my heart is - What?
66 What's that? What's that you say?
67 You say today is .......Saturday?
68 Goodbye, I'm going out to play!"
