2 Down, ?? More to Go
Jacob Godserv
right now. I just took down two bugs, and no doubt I've got more
waiting for me. I'm trying to keep my programmer guns loaded at all
times.
Alright, so here's what just went down:
* Chromium's been sneaking around, taking stabs at my back whenever it
gets the chance, usually around calendar.google.com and gmail.com as
I noted before. I finally nailed the issue: v5 is too old. But you
already knew that. The latest: v6 is about to go stable on all
archs. The blocker is cups v1.4, but that's about to go stable on
the 12th. We should be seeing Chromium v6 on all binary repos by
September 14th.
* A ghost of a bug was going for a full frontal attack. On my Pandora,
wireless vanished, and logging in caused momentary lockups. It took
me forever to finally to put "updates" and "kernel 2.6.27" together
to get "udev-151-r4" as the culprit. Downgrading udev back to 146-r1
solves this one. If you are running a newer kernel, feel free to try
the new udev. Mask udev 151 and greater until then.
Oh, the joys of using an unpopular architecture. At least we don't have
it as bad as some of the others. :)
If anyone has any problems running Neuvoo, let us know!

short, no one would survive, but for the sake of the
elect those days will be shortened."
Are you ready?

Opened a bug for this: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=336882
I have a feeling they'll resolve it as invalid, since we're using an
oddly old setup, etc., but I hope they at least update the ebuild to
warn about older kernels.
