Bugzilla Bug 62809

a new version of tpb is out -- it's running here for a few days without
problems.

The ebuild used is derived form this:
# $Header: /home/cvsroot/gentoo-x86/app-laptop/tpb^Atpb-0.6.0.ebuild,v 1.1
  2003/12/02 20:56:27 latexer Exp $
src_unpack() is not needed any more (including the patch)

(bug #53694 may be obsoleted by this)

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:

*** Bug 53694 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

Works for me!

pkg_postinst says you need to have nvram support compiled into your kernel: however, this seems to be false: works fine for me as a module.  Suggest changing the to:

pkg_postinst() {
    einfo "tpb requires you to have nvram support compiled into"
    einfo "your kernel to function (or loaded as a module)."
}

Thank you for confirming this. I will change the pkg_postinst() message
accordingly and bump the package later today.

app-laptop/tpb-0.6.3 is now in portage. Closing this bug as FIXED.

Note: Patch for xosd issue in configure is still needed.

thanks for adding to portage.

@comment #4: the xosd-configure-patch may have an other subtle problem; I double
checked right now: it's definitively not needed in my setup:
  x11-base/xfree-4.3.0-r6
  x11-libs/xosd-2.2.8-r1
(maybe a fancy USE-flag dependency?)

Please try 'USE="-xosd" emerge =app-laptop/tpb-0.6.3' and paste the output of
'ldd /usr/bin/tpb' here.

ahem.

Please try the above _without_ the mentioned patch.

=> no osd-support of course, but buttons work fine ("ThinkPad" tested)

BUT NOW with USE="xosd" xosd is not linked in either.
I don't understand that any more as I checked my /var/db/pkg/app-laptop/tpb-0.6.3/tpb-0.6.3.ebuild before my last comment and
there was definitively no patch in it (maybe I forgot to restart the program).
Sorry for the false-alarm.

... which proves that the patch is still needed. Thank you for testing.

Re-closing as FIXED.
