Why do you continually ask the same question expecting a different answer? Why can't you just realize that some people prefer Plasma5 and some prefer KDE4 (and some prefer xfce, fluxbox, etc)? Repeating the same question over and over just gets annoying. Nobody needs to "sell" you on Plasma5. That is why Slackware ships *many* WM/DE choices. You decide what you like... You can feel free to send me to wherever you feel I belong, but nobody needs to sell you on anything. Use what you like and move on... Good grief... grow some skin. |

Could we please have lolcat added to Slackware?
There is an slackbuild It just works (colorizes terminal output) It really lifts the spirit of neofetch/screenfetch in that one particular thread (i like to think of it as one more PR thread for Slackware) It works with: -top -tt (tetris clone for terminals) -moon-buggy and possibly others |

Code:
So file descriptor 9 is the ibdata1 file. As you are running the same code as before you upgraded glibc the SIGILL isn't part of mariadb otherwise it would of failed earlier. Note the futex call here never returns. Its quite possible that the futex call in the kernel or glibc has the SIGILL. Given the duplicate bug references here is also a x86 reference on slackware I'd be looking closely at their build process and bug reports for something similar. |
I'm not sure what's happening there, hope I haven't missed anything, but I can confirm that mariadb seems to work fine here on slackware-current 32bit, I just tested running a test wordpress site on it and it went smoothly: FWIW I started from scratch and then "mysql_install_db --user=mysql", "mysql_secure_installation" and then on with the worpress install...
do you have the same behaviour if you start from scratch? you can try shutting down mariadb, move /var/lib/mysql elsewhere and recreate a pristine installation doing like above (when you finish you can shut it down again, move back the backupped /var/lib/mysql and you should be fine). |

do you have a headless system though? in other words you have kde and x and all installed? |

note that I edited the post above requesting a test, if you have the possibility to do it... |
Quote:
and I dont have X or KDE installed, this is for servers, but it runs fine without kde and x on pre jan 22 rebuild, so unless he's done something else stupid in a gui env that forces an include shared object that does not get reported anywhere I dunno. |
but as it works here and it doesn't seem to be something related to your cpu, I hope you may understand how this may not look like a bug in Slackware...
also, FYI, mariadbd doesn't seems to link to x libraries here Code:
# ldd /usr/libexec/mariadbd Code:
adt_null.so: https://jira.mariadb.org/browse/MDEV-24745 https://jira.mariadb.org/browse/MDEV-24922 |

I hope you understand that ldd can show all ok, but unless you trace every library linked to also get OK a single ldd is only a rough "it seem alright" I struck that problem with-currents, php IIRC, it had a library that ldd showed as there, but the library itself was linked to an Xlib resulting in php failing. I guess I'm just wasting my time, so I'll forget it, which means my only 64 bit curent box stays locked with no more updates since before jan22 at least until I decide what to do, we can now get free RHEL licences so I need to weigh all our options and when the masses start using slackware 15 in same env I do and find it doesnt work, let all the complaints come in... then it might be taken seriously by those who matter, I've seen this before time and time again, I'm not going to argue with either side when they both pass the buck, and its the only way it gets taken seriously and given time, its noe 20 february, thats almost a full month with no result, so I have to ask myself is this good time management, I think you know the answer to that. |
Now this is a VERY minor issue, but possibly worth fixing.
In sysvinit-scripts /etc/rc.d/rc.4 error message doesn't mention the new default login manager in the error message. A little patch should fix the issue ;): Code:

"scp" command is not working in current setup environment
Hello.
"scp" command tries to use "/usr/bin/dbclient" command, which does not exists Code:
root@slackware:~# scp -v test: . After corresponding symlink creation, the "scp" command is working |
I use sometimes the slackware install cd as "livecd" for rsync to remote server(for example copy a disk image custom, etc), is really complete, only missing two things: acquire an ip addr via dhcpcd and rsync package installed by default.

Revert isolinux/README.TXT to using mkisofs not xorriso
In the Slackware-current distribution area in the isolinux directory, README.TXT has instructions on how to make a bootable DVD or USB flash drive for installing Slackware. Unfortunately, the instructions rely on the 'xorriso' package, which was added after Slackware-14.2. So a person trying to upgrade from Slackware-14.2 to -current or a future 15.0 is unable to follow these instructions. My suggestion is to revert to the older instructions which use mkisofs and isohybrid. This will allow making bootable upgrade media when using Slackware-14.2. Post-15.0, you can switch to using commands from the xorriso package. |
Request change to the generic & huge kernel configs. Please modify 'pinctrl-cherryview' to built-in from module.
I've successfully installed slackware-current (5.10.17) on my Acer Chromebook CB3-431-C539. I used MrChrombox.tech "Install/Update UEFI (Full ROM) Firmware" and removed Chrome OS completely. At first the serio-i8042 PS/2 keyboard was unresponsive. After a rebuild of the slackware kernel with the requested change the keyboard is alive. Everything else appears to work out of the box so far. Here's the location of the requested change: Code:

python-requests non functional
Hello,
I have trouble building git-cola 3.9 (my own slackbuild) after the upgrade to python-idna 3.x. It looks like python-requests is incompatible with this version of idna: Code:
pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: The 'idna<3,>=2.5' distribution was not found and is required by requests |

No such error here, scp is working as expected. |
Interesting, Kernel 5.11 just went into testing : )

This way you could at least know whether or not that is what the problem is and can give Pat a place to start if he wants to figure it out. |
Hi - would be great to see an upgrade of efivar to fix the regression on installing ELILO to eMMC (from October 2019).

While building the kde series without any kde package installed on the system, the kde.SlackBuild stopped at akonadi-contacts, there cmake complained about missing grantleetheme.
It continued to compile then with Code:
kde.SlackBuild kdepim:libkleo,grantleetheme,akonadi-contacts, But in the actual used module kde/modules/kdepim -libkleo -grantleetheme need to be put somewhere before akonadi-contacts. |

While Tor is a third party app not bundled with vanilla Slackware, it would be nice if /etc/rc.d/rc.M would try to execute an existing executable /etc/rc.d/rc.tor, before all network daemons that do name resolving. I'm asking for this since I've been using Tor as DNS resolver for years, to avoid censorship, and this would spare me for modifying rc.M by hand.

kde.Slackbuilds builds this: Code:
KDEMODS=" \ It seems to not fail if kde is already installed, akonadi-contacts then uses the already present libkleo/grantleetheme from a previous release which might be or problem or not. |
If you want to build kde from scratch follow this link: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/no...r/sfsbuild1.sh
and search for "build_frameworks_kde", then everything that follows is the right order to build every package of kde without failure. |
Quote:
My intention is to have the kde.SlackBuild work better, because that's upstream at Pat and i assume he's build kde by hitting kde.SlackBuild. |
