OpenRC & eudev on Arch

bstaletic · 2014-10-15 09:30:34

One more question. What do you guy do when you need adb? I have installed android-tools andandroid-udev from the repos nad added myself to adbusers group. Adb starts correctly but doesn't find my phone. It works perfectly with systemd/udev. To resolve this I tried manually copying the file that contains the rules to /etc/udev/rules.d/ but it didn't solve anything. For now I'm using adb from arch live cd.

@F34R
Just follow the instructions, and it will all go well. I used those.

P.S. What I find funny is the message "OpenRC starting Manjaro linux $distrover" during the boot.

EDIT:

Solved the problem. I needed to explicitly list my phone in the file, and reboot (reboot was due to the changes in /etc/group file). After that I was able to use adb.

@ aaditya, it would be better if you parse /etc/os-release.

Sorry, /etc/os-release is parsed, but it is parsed at build time, and I built the packages on my Manjaro Unstable VM

I will rebuild openrc-core on my Arch VM and re upload the packages.

@bstaletic,

I think adb worked for me out of the box when I had tried it about a month ago, but if there are problems I will try out your method

I had used adb from the upstream Android SDK which contains platform-tools.

Edit-
Could someone give me a tutorial on how to build packages for redistribution on Arch (maybe using chroots, and for both x86_64 and i686 architectures)..

Edit2-
I think I will simply use makepkg for building for x86_64 (as is my host VM), and for i686 I will try Xyne's arch32-light.

It depends on {idVendor} and{idProduct} and somehow my LG had Google's idVendor and didn't work out of the box on openrc. With systemd it did work out of the box.

openrc-core package updated, uploaded, and checked, now says Arch Linux

bstaletic · 2014-11-07 19:04:11

Guys look at this thread. Has anyone using openrc had this issue or is it just my pc? If it is not just me can someone explain. I hadn't hadthis issue with systemd, though I don't remember configuring acpi before my switch to openrc?

Hi guys,

Notable changes in artoo's pkgbuilds include-

bump of eudev from 1.10 to 2.1.1
consolekit from 0.4.6 to 0.9.2 (artoo upgraded to consolekit2).

Source:
https://github.com/udeved/pkgbuilds

So you guys might want to keep the current batch of packages (like eudev-1.10 or consolekit-0.4.6) in your pkg cache, as a few people have reported that eudev-2.1.1 causes a delay while booting.

Another thing I noticed on my Arch VM is that the Hibernate option is greyed out (on Xfce) with ck-0.9.2, but works with ck-0.4.6 (dont have this behavior on my Manjaro VM)..

Edit-
The above consolekit behavior seems to be because of some polkit rules which are present on the Manjaro VM but not on the Arch VM.

Edit2-
Bug report filed:
https://github.com/ConsoleKit2/ConsoleKit2/issues/12

Edit3-
Till the consolekit2 support is merged in the xfce4-session, one could use the old version of consolekit (0.4.6), or add a file /etc/polkit-1/rules.d/60-upower.rules with the content:

polkit.addRule(function(action, subject) {
    if (action.id == "org.freedesktop.upower.hibernate" ||
        action.id == "org.freedesktop.upower.suspend") {
        return polkit.Result.YES;
    }
});

to use suspend/hibernate on Xfce with consolekit-0.9.2 (upower-pm-utils should be installed to use the rule given above).

After a recent update (probably systemd 217-7) , i saw these lines in rc.log :

sysctl: cannot open "/etc/sysctl.conf": No such file or directory
 * Unable to configure some kernel parameters
 [ !! ]
 * ERROR: sysctl failed to start

I still had openrc 13.1 installed, upgraded to 13.5 and the error was still there.
Looking into /etc/openrc/init.d/sysctl showed that sysctl --system is called.
Man sysctl made clear systcl is part of the kernel and still uses /etc/sysctl.conf .

I restored the file from a backup, error is gone.

For the record, systemd uses it's own sysctl: /usr/lib/systemd/systemd-sysctl.

I don't think there's anything stopping you using /etc/sysctl.conf if you want to use the procps-ng's sysctl, I'm not sure why this file has been removed on your system. The only recent change to the procps-ng package has been a version bump: https://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit … 15dce2e4f1

I too was getting this error, I searched for what /etc/sysctl.conf was and then created a file with comments.
I think /etc/sysctl.conf was deprecated here.
Also the configs in /etc/sysctl.d/* could be applied too (by OpenRC).

wormzy, thanks for correction that sysctl belongs to procps-ng and systemd has it's own version.

the first time i got these messages was :

Looks like the switch from systemd 216 to systemd 217 may have caused this.

That suggests openrc sysctl initscript already handles files in /etc/sysctl.d/

After updating to archlinux official syslog-ng 3.6.1-1 package, you may see lines like these in /var/log/rc.log .

Afaict syslog-ng is working normally.
I've reported it to syslog-ng mailing list, thread start

NOTE :
you may have to add a temporary security exception for that site to see it.
(firefox 34.0.5-1 complains it doesn't know the issuer of the certificate).

^ rsyslog? I remember nothing but trouble with syslog-ng anyway (like 100% CPU spikes, missing logs, etc)

Lone_Wolf · 2014-12-09 11:36:36

Alad, this is the first time i have any problem with syslog-ng sine i started using it many years ago.

My issue has been solved and a fix is now in syslog-ng 3.6/master branch .

I have a couple problems with artoo's packages,

mkpkg throws this error when building openrc-misc: "rsyslog.initd-r1 ... FAILED, ==> ERROR: One or more files did not pass the validity check!", so the entire package fails to build.

same problem with openrc-devel except with "mysql-5.1.67-init.d-r1 ... FAILED"

and openrc-net "dhcrelay.conf ... FAILED"

Any ideas how to fix this?

Before using makepkg, you could try updpkgsums, which updates the pkgbuild by downloading the source and verifying the checksums.

l0vot · 2014-12-12 04:27:42

@aaditya: Thanks! updpkgsums was exactly what I needed. I had to hack the script a little so it would run as root without errors, but other than that it worked perfectly.

Just wiped systemd from my system and switched to openrc. I haven't re-booted yet, is there anything I need to do to, like add eudev to the kernel line instead of systemd? the openrc page was a bit vague, as was the eudev page. I want to do what I can to make sure my computer won't be a brick when I re-boot.

Why would eudev be added to the kernel line

Could you specify which packages are installed..

pacman -Qs openrc
pacman -Qs eudev

just need to know what the GRUB entry needs to look like, and anything else that needs to be done to have a bootable system

Looks correct to me, and no, I dont think any changes to Grub are required (artoo's method uses vanilla sysvinit, which uses the default /sbin/init (or /usr/bin/init), meaning svsvinit (and openrc on top of it) would probably boot by default (at least thats how it is for me )).

Could you specify which packages are installed..

OK, just switched init=/usr/lib/systemd/systemd to init=/usr/bin/init. I noticed a udev hook in my mkinitcpio.conf, does that need to be changed?

Nope, I dont think so, I have it too.
You could regenerate your initramfs though if you feel like it.

Time to reboot. I really hope this works.

It worked! Now to go figure out how to use connman properly so setting up a connection isn't so difficult, but that doesn't belong in this thread

Nevermind, HOLY SHIT connman auto connected to my router after connecting to it once. BY ITSELF! I havn't had a network manager that actually does it's job without me having to baby it before. And it does so quickly and from the command line. I thought things like that were a myth.
