modprobing the module asks for CARD_TYPE in emu10k1.conf which is undefined and non existant. this didn't happen in r2
run etc-update
what i meant, is that we dont know what can we put in that variable. Looking at /usr/bin/emu10k1-script i learned that the 2 possible values are: audigy (duh) emu (in case you have an original live card) 1)Please update the ebuild to reflect these 2 values in the current ewarn 2)Please change the emu10k1.conf file and put something like # CARD_TYPE: possible values: [audigy|emu] oh please, change emu to live, it's more intuitive
i did run etc-update and nothing happened. looking at the source code i see that everything that i request here has been done, but weird, portage didn't warn me to run etc-update and running it now says there is nothing to do
if you run etc-update it'll add that information to the top of your emu10k1.conf file http://cvs.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/gentoo-x86/media-sound/emu10k1/files/emu10k1.conf-gentoo-header?rev=1.1&content-type=text/vnd.viewcvs-markup
i installed it again and it still fails to update /etc/emu10k1.conf, i have to do it myself. Maybe it is because i had an older version installed and i modified the .conf file so emerge didn't remove it when it auto unmerged the older version something must be wrong in the .ebuild
sorry, etc-update does nothing. i know the file is there, (i saw it myself in /files) but portage fails in updating it. i dont get either the yellow dialog telling me i have x files changed in /etc and that i should run etc-update, neither if i manually run it i get the new file. something is wrong in the ebuild
Created attachment 8180 [details] here goes my complete log i am guessing the new file does not get updated and only gets installed properly if you didn't have emu10k1 installed before
ill double check it
ok, it is installed into ${D} correctly, but the merge doesnt do it right
nick: please examine the emu10k1 ebuild with 2.0.46-r12 ... when it goes to merge ${D} with the livefilesystem, changes to a file in /etc/ are lost ... # cd /usr/portage/media-sound/emu10k1/ # ebuild emu10k1-0.20a-r3.ebuild clean unpack compile install # cd /var/tmp/portage/emu10k1-0.20a-r3/image/etc/ # diff -ur /etc/emu10k1.conf emu10k1.conf --- /etc/emu10k1.conf 2003-02-12 10:25:41.000000000 -0500 +++ emu10k1.conf 2003-02-12 10:28:06.000000000 -0500 @@ -1,3 +1,11 @@ +# Set your card type on the next line so that loading the +# kernel module works correctly. +# +# Accepted values are 'emu' and 'audigy' +# use 'audigy' if you have an audigy based sound card, +# otherwise use 'emu' +CARD_TYPE="set_me" + ## ## This file is used to configure emu10k1's emu-script ## # emerge emu10k1 <emerges correctly> # etc-update Scanning Configuration files...

This is on purpose... But can be overridden in .47-r1 now. --noconfmem
