*** Bug 84421 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 84420 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 96139 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** I raised Bug 96139 which has been marked as a dupe of this, but the issue of 2.6 compatibility (raised by this bug) has been solved by using the current Win4Lin-5.5.18c-d. My issue is the same as bug 84420 which was also marked resolved/dupe. The current gentoo binaries are Win4Lin-5.5.18c-d, the netraverse current binaries are Win4Lin-5.5.20e-d which have major and required fixes. Why the win4lin version number is 5.1.1, I'm not sure. Anyone working on this? Any updates? TIA So you all know seems bass has stated that he does not have time to maintain the win4lin sources I will do my best to get it readded as soon as possible. I will also request his permission to update the ebuild for all fixes that are needed. why not create an ebuild to patch the kernel installed? can be a best solution IMHO Is this a known problem?

All users that use the C shell (csh) or similar shells
(e.g. tcsh) need to log out and log back in so that the
newly installed commands can be used.
* If this is a new Win4Lin Install you will need to run the following command
* ebuild /var/db/pkg/app-emulation/win4lin-5.1.1/win4lin-5.1.1.ebuild config
* to install the windows setup files. You will need your Windows cdrom in the
* drive in order to complete this step.
*
* If this is an upgrade 4.x to 5.x the trial license code isn't valid,
* you need register it in NeTraverse, or unemerge ALL Win4Lin files.
*
* Remeber: rc-update add Win4Lin default
* you need to start de Win4Lin service.

thanks for you work :) so after all this time trying to contact with netraverse to update our serial numbers for testing i dont have any reply. Netraverse dont support this ebuild more. If you want you can use the w4l installer is not so bad :) so the remove will be cancelled if you have a good point to mantain the ebuild in gentoo. w4l is now hardmasked and i will remove it in 30 days. regards |
