When my computer boots, right before the screen switches to X, multiple error messages are printed to the terminal: /usr/kde/3.3/bin/kdm: Symbol 'memmove' causes overflow in R_X86_64_PC32 relocation /usr/kde/3.3/bin/kdm: Symbol 'recvfrom' causes overflow in R_X86_64_PC32 relocation /usr/kde/3.3/bin/kdm: Symbol 'sendto' causes overflow in R_X86_64_PC32 relocation /usr/kde/3.3/bin/kdm: Symbol 'malloc' causes overflow in R_X86_64_PC32 relocation /usr/kde/3.3/bin/kdm: Symbol 'malloc' causes overflow in R_X86_64_PC32 relocation /usr/kde/3.3/bin/kdm: Symbol 'realloc' causes overflow in R_X86_64_PC32 relocation /usr/kde/3.3/bin/kdm: Symbol 'free' causes overflow in R_X86_64_PC32 relocation These messages are output in a haphazard way on the terminal instead of the normal left-aligned form that terminal outout normally has. I have re-emerged kde-base multiple times, but the errors never go away. They never appeared when I was running KDE 3.2.2 or KDE 3.2.3. I already submitted a bug the KDE, but they (Oswald Buddenhagen (ossi@kde.org)) claimed that the package was miscompiled. I am running a 64-bit install on my system. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot the computer 2. Scratch my head upon seeing error messages while X starts 3. Actual Results: The error messages are output to the terminal Expected Results: Started kdm without any errors Portage 2.0.50-r10 (default-amd64-2004.2, gcc-3.3.4, glibc-2.3.4.20040808-r0, 2.6.8-gentoo-r1) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.8-gentoo-r1 x86_64 Mobile AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3000+ Gentoo Base System version 1.5.3 Autoconf: sys-devel/autoconf-2.59-r4 Automake: sys-devel/automake-1.8.5-r1 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="amd64 ~amd64" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CFLAGS="-O2 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" CHOST="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" COMPILER="" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.3/share/config:/usr/kde/3.3/env:/usr/kde/3.3/shutdown /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/share/config /usr/share/texmf/dvipdfm/config/ /usr/share/texmf/dvips/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/generic/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/platex/config/ /usr/share/texmf/xdvi/ /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoaddcvs ccache fixpackages usersandbox usrepriv" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://gentoo.osuosl.org http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/gentoo" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="X Xaw3d aalib acpi aim alsa amd64 apm arts artswrappersuid audiofile avi berkdb cdr crypt cups dga directfb divx4linux doc dvd encode esd f77 fbcon foomaticdb gd gdbm gif gphoto2 gpm gstreamer gtk2 icq imagemagic imap imlib ipv6 java joystick jpeg junit kde lcms ldap libg++ libwww live lufsusermount mad mikmod mpeg msn multilib nas ncurses nls nogcj oggvorbis opengl oscar oss pam pcmcia pdflib perl png pnp python qt quicktime readline sasl sdl slang slp smaba snmp socks5 spell ssl tcltk tcpd tetex tiff truetype unicode usb video_cards_radeon videoswmf xml xml2 xmms xosd xv xvid yahoo zlib"
the -only- time i can get this to happen is when libXdmcp.a is included in a binary built -fPIE. since you're not using hardened gcc, this should never be happening... so i'm just a tad bit confused.
After re-emergeing all of the packages that xorg-x11 depends on (expat, fontconfig, freetype, baselayout, portage, sed, flex, ncurses, zlib, opengl-update, ttmkfdir, perl, libpng, util-linux, gcc, patch, xterm), xorg-x11 and doing an etc-update, the error messages went away. Not sure what was wrong, but the problem was resolved.
Changing from FIXED to INVALID
Just fixing resolution status
