If you can get an xterm just fine, your window manager is crashing. gently caress if I can troubleshoot gnome though, have fun with that one (or use fvwm ).

KVM will use virt-viewer/remote-viewer, or you can specify if you're using qemu-kvm by hand (SDL, etc) Try: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=896648 Or: https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&sou...EeyX2Na0jAuJkiQ

evol262 posted:KVM will use virt-viewer/remote-viewer, or you can specify if you're using qemu-kvm by hand (SDL, etc) Can you explain a bit more on the first line? I know KVM only as a virtual machine tool and this is a bare-metal installation. With the first link there, I read the whole thread and the only really detailed solution, in comment 15, sadly doesn't work. It says to (1) add a line to /etc/pam.d/runuser-l, but that line is already there in CentOS 7; (2) change the Type in the service file to be 'simple' instead of 'forking'; (3) add '-fg' to the vncserver invocation in ExecStart in the service file; (4) comment out the ExecStop line. I did 2, 3, and 4 and now the service fails to start at all so I'm guessing some of that isn't valid. With the second link, I'm not seeing the guy do anything in the tutorial that I didn't - am I missing something? I'm getting the impression that I should just install XFCE and try having the VNC sessions use that instead. Eletriarnation fucked around with this message at 07:53 on Dec 10, 2016 |

Disabling this let the wl driver load just fine and all was fixed. Thanks for the help!

You mean virt-viewer, or something else? I linked to the bug (and the DO doc) because they'll go through every possible troubleshooting step. XFCE may just be easier

How is the Linux ecosystem currently funded, aside from explicitly commercial enterprises like RHEL etc.? Where does all the money come from, and are there possible corruptible influences at play when Google are making fat stacks of cheddar by adopting stuff from open source software and donating large sums back. Is it wrong to have Microsoft pumping enough wedge into the Linux Foundation to become one of its biggest donors? Or has Stallman got our backs?

apropos man posted:How is the Linux ecosystem currently funded, aside from explicitly commercial enterprises like RHEL etc.? This varies. Some are foundation projects (Apache, gnu, whatever) which solicit donations in order to run infrastructure and keep staff. Some funding comes from training and conferences (Linux foundation, etc) Some are funded almost 100% by companies which freeze and productize (distros, mostly). Some are collaborative enterprises which rely on independent actors or corporate involvement to run (kubernetes, openstack, etc). In general, though, "adopting open source software and donating back" is a flawed way to look at it. Almost every company which is donating is also contributing code. Some projects (Linux, gcc, and glibc are good examples) have gatekeepers who pass source in. Most use a source review system (patches to mailing lists, GitHub, gerrit, whatever) which requires multiple acks to get something merged. Certainly large companies with a lot of resources can push a feature almost by themselves, but getting that feature accepted requires at least some cooperation with the community.

Maybe, but I know Oracle owns it and requires you be running their kernel to use it. I did just discover kpatch in RHEL, so I guess there are alternatives now.

Well do a U-turn and get out then because linux has been crap for one reason or another since 1991. First it really didn't work at all, then it mostly worked but you'd spend all night compiling poo poo, then we got package managers and it was crap because everyone was yelling about which was the best and you ended up compiling constantly anyways. Then there was an argument about standardizing on paths and then it was crap because the only loving thing people ever talked about was SCO and then no one really cared about linux anymore, it was all KDE vs Gnome. Now it's crap again because of all the bickering about systemd.

apropos man posted:How does, say, Canonical make their money though? (it can't be from the sale of the Ubuntu phone!) They used to try to squeeze dollars out of desktop installs. They failed at that. Then they tried to enter the phone market because handset makers hate Android. They failed at that. Now they're trying to be the cloud OS, so that every OS you install in Docker or AWS has royalties going to Canonical. It's working out pretty well in theory, but when they go to collect royalties companies tend to just switch to Debian. Hint: the Amazon search deal was related to the AWS deal to let part of the EC2 money go to Canonical. Also, reminder that Mark Shuttleworth is a loving rich man, and Canonical can be funded basically with the interest made on his fortune.

All I can say is: "I'm poor and this was sitting around doing nothing", but otherwise I'll shut up Pretty sure it can still run a 64bit OS, but I could be wrong. That said, I'm just derailing your issue, it shouldn't be as a result of running a 32bit OS(since its a 32bit application). I would suggest trying to explicitly install the libraries with the :i386 flag anyway, just to rule out a stupid packaging issue. E: You can run 64 bit according to this: http://www.tomsguide.com/forum/67810-35-does-asus-1015t-netbook-support-64bit-processing As said before, use ldd to see what libraries you are actually missing, and then use apt-file search to find out what package to install. Oh, and check to see if you are already running 64 bit... uname -a will tell you the architecture, if you see i386 its running 32 bit, otherwise its probably 64 bit.

Find out what's requiring those (ldd is your friend here) LD_LIBRARY_PATH just sets the order. I'd figure out what packages normally provide those libraries and install them.

ToxicFrog posted:Are you sure btrfs isn't the problem? When I used it I was plagued with random slowdowns and things blocking on IO that really shouldn't be, although if it's only ~2 seconds for you it's been much improved. Switched to XFS and ZFS on the same disks and the problems went away. Well, I can't be certain it's not BTRFS, but I'm running a basically identical setup on other machines (btrfs on SSD) and not seeing the same stalls. It still could be BTRFS, it's sensitive to free-space fragmentation so differing load patterns lead to accumulating performance differences. I just don't want to give up filesystem-level snapshots or maintain off-tree ZFS to keep them. My backup system is "take a snapshot then backup the snapshot to NAS" so everything is 100% consistent. Then I keep today, yesterday, 1 week and nuke the rest. Having "oh gently caress" recovery from 1hr, yesterday, last week without having to do a full restore from the NAS is nice. I'm not even positive that it's process-originated IO either. It could be writeback getting lumpy or some other bit of stupidity. I'll run blktrace for a while and examine the logs by hand for the timestamp in question. iotop doesn't work because it's polling and refreshes the burst away before I can tab to the window. There really isn't a tool to do what I want, which would be graph IO load and let you click on any point to get the process breakdown. Maybe I'll write it as a viewer for blktrace logs.
