Hello Any way to installing Gentoo when having problems booting with eltorito system?

hey, anyone here have experience with getting the oss binaries to work with gentoo. i unmerged all my alsa packages before trying to install it, but i’m still getting “Failed to disable conflicting sound drivers”

is hummingbird fast for forwarding X11’s applicaiton?

Xming is nice, but what’s wrong with cygwin/X?

which version of hummingbird will do the trick, there are many versions of hummingbird

nm about hummingbird. I don’t know if it’s even still around

i can’t figure out the fs type on a flash drive. are there any tools to do that?

apache can’t find mod_access.so so it won’t start - revdep-rebuild is fine, so what’s the problem ?

there’s humming bird 2008

has anybody resolved the dbus issues yet with xorg-server-1.4.0?

ok, why do i have xf86-input-keyboard-1.2 on my system? is that due to syndaemon or the synaptics package?

xming looks like a complete replacement for hummingbird.

never tried cygwin , affraid it will conflict my batch scripts on my machine

does someone use mrxvt?

it won’t

The real deal, though, is being able to use your Windows system as a Unix workstation, which it appears cygwin/X gives you.

you’re looking for the dep? run equery d xf86-input-keyboard

How goes it all?

i think my college has a version of free humming bird

Well, maybe try them all out.

ok, it’s not listed as belonging to anything installed

yes, but i need to register at school on monday you got screen shot of hummingbird forwarding X?

got it. it’s xorg-X11 server

No.

Option tnum is obsolete. Use –initProfileList instead

hi, how stable it is to use the -o3 option insted of the CFLAGS=”-O2″ option?

hello,what should i do to have my v4l(gspcav1) camera detected in ekiga?

where the hell did my mod_auth go ? o_O did the name of it change or something?

mixed results - may work, but can also cause trouble

I’ve rebuilt my entire system with -O3 and never borked anything, however it doesn’t always mean better performance.

what is a good choice for a filesystem on a flash drive that will make it accessible in mac os x and windows

Just unmerge xf86-input-keyboard. THat will unblock xorg-server.

Certain programs are math/cpu intensive, and do better with -O3, where as some programs are better compiled for size so they consume less memory.

that’s what i’m doing now

thx!

but i don’t know if that’s gonna bork my system or not. oh well, that’s why i use ~arch

CFLAGS=”-O2 -march=prescott -pipe -ftracer -ftree-vectorize” I mean the -ftracer -ftree-vectorize options … do you think it is good to specify in stage3 of linux instalation? And what do you think about -fomit-frame-pointer? In the handbook they don;t recommend it but on wiki in Safe falgs example it is there?

char_less, follow the safe CFlags

so i need to install Xorg server on my linux hosting box to use xming?

What exactly it means cite “might have serious repercussions on the debugging of applications.”

char_less, I use all of those, including fomit-frame-pointer without any really problems. That’s actually a pretty decent set

I suggest you don’t use them

Have you ever had to debug a program?

I mean.. i will be compiling kernel, how will it affect debugging of something i write in c later on? yes, of course

I’ve been using -fomit-frame-pointer for about 4 years. If you are using as a dev box, and need to debug code, then I wouldn’t recommend it.

but this is the first time i install gentoo. i was using mandrake before.. you get the picture

just stick with defaults

The kernel has its own makefile, and it filters out CFLAGS. Certain programs do that. So regardless of what is in /etc/make.conf, the kernel, gcc and a few other packages will only compile with what their makefile says.

So many opinions..

sup with new xorg and nvidia? mine complains of ABI problems

Is there a guide or something to mdadm maintenance? I would like to scan my various arrays for problems and such to verify data integrity.

euphor][a: nvidia is behind the times, as usually euphor][a: on the upside, ati has the same issue

so a downgrade is the only option?

what is ABI anyway?

Could you please explain to me why i shouldn’t us ethen?

defaults are well tested and stable, especially CFLAGS tend to break stuff in subtle ways when you tweak them

Another Bull Incompatability

euphor][a: there’s some evil tricks, but …

-ignoreABI ?

So ok, i if i omit the fomit-frame-pointer… what about the two others?

mdadm –monitor / –manage

anyone use a Logitech G5 and recommend a configuration?

feel free to use what you want, but I suggest you stick to defaults

-ftree-vectorize I’ve only been using for the past few months, but I haven’t had any problems. I know many people always say only run with the bare, basic CFLAGS, but if that was the case, I’d just run a binary distro.

/sys/block/md0/md/sync_action”, why one over the other?

I say use moderation. Don’t go crazy with CFLAGS, but don’t be totally afraid to experiment either.

ricer!

I understand, but i’ve just read the gcc online optimization and i don’t really understand the options. I mean i know what they do but what was written there wasn’t really descriptive. I just want to optimize my system a bit

ah, that sounds interesting … I don’t know enough about it to comment

hi, my mouse isn’t working with xorg 7.3. What could be wrong?

best optimization is to leave defaults

thanks

than can anyone recommend any better CFLAGS for x86_64 than -march=athlon64 -O2 -pipe -msse3 ?

Oddly enough in the Gentoo community, you’ll see people swear that someone once heard that someone once said that something might break something, and stay away from it, when every other distro is shipping with that option and having no problems.

something that is still reliable

*cough* fedora thing is, I see users with problems every day … so I get a feeling for safe and unsafe things

For instance, many distros use hashstyle in their LDFLAGS for the entire system, and many core packages in the toolchain now default to build with HASHSTYLE, but the official Gentoo policy is that it is unstable and will break your box. If it is so unstable, then why do the GCC, GLIBC and BINUTILS builds all default to use it, as well as the kernel?

yeah, gentoo uses things globally, other distros build one binpkg and are done

hey guys

have you tested KDE with it?

anyone using X 7.3?

I bet the gcc devs don’t test it on 12k packages …

Yep, for almost two years, since the patches first came out. Now, but Kubuntu, Suse, and other distros use it globally on all their packages now.

ok let me ask one more question.. i just wan to make clear i am not a newbie to linux nor to programming. it’s just this is my first time i want to install something other than mandrake on my own.

hi guys, anyone recommend some open source software for managing a 1st gen iPod shuffle?

so here are the safe flags http://gentoo-wiki.com/Safe_Cflags#Pentium_4_.28Prescott.29_.2F_Celeron_D http://weboperative.com/gentoo/p4-prescott/x86/make.conf I just want to ask couple of questions

I’m attempting to compile a kernel for my first gentoo box, but i can’t seem to find where to enable my lan card, (eth0) where the driver is in the kernel

PCI Devices

now in stage of install equal tochapter 5 of handbook

Type “lscpi -v” and check the output to see what type of card you have

i don’t know wether somewhere later those other flags will be mentioned, but i just see a big difference between those other two

hello

you can change most things at any later time

Config file problem. Take a look at the “” in the paste. Thanks http://rafb.net/p/kKq8vh61.html

Gentoo also kept GCC in their unstable branch for over a year after it came out, and everyone was using it compile their entire distro. Because their are so many variables with a source distro, the prevailing community is that most everything is unsafe, unstable and unsupported. There are descriptions for all the flags in the GCC manual. Just a second.

would anyone have any insight why i’d rsync/sftp would fail with “Disconnecting: Corrupted MAC on input” while copy files using automount+nfs works?

ola, I compiled 7.3 and recompiled newest i810, but i got black screen with X mouse pointer and freeze in next moment. Any help?

yes sure its a freeze? here it was that they werent working the mouse and the keyboard that is

http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-4.2.1/gcc/Optimize-Options.html

fixed the keyboard by installing xf86-input-keyboard 1.2.2

Change gcc-4.x.x to whatever gcc you are using

working on the mouse thing right now

well, not, but it doesn’t respond on anything

how do i get a list of pci devices if lspci doesnt work

got 1.2.2 of input-keyboard?

yep

-O2 -march=prescott -pipe -ftracer -ftree-vectorize -fomit-frame-pointer should be more than safe for global flags.

can you please tell me if X -configure is working properly there?

i can’t compile synaptics

you’ll get ridiculed for it in bugreports

i just started with a blank xorg.conf

Many devs suggest -O2 -march=foo -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer as the base/safe flags.

here is giving me a black screen instead, with X 7.3 it was generating me a xorg.conf.new file

-ftracer is extremely stable and common.

hm yeah

and i just use xrandr to set the correct screen stuff

and -ftree-vectorize is actually recommended now for a good deal number of packages.

-ftree-vectorize is known for the subtle damage it can cause

whats the ETA for the forums

for the first time i have been able to on the fly switch to my external monitor using a larger resolution than the internal monitor

Can I ask you a personal question? Is anyone of you actually a developer?

I just Googled for ftree-vectorize and problem, bug report, and errors and found nothing really.

freezed again when using new conf… think going back to 7.2, got to do some coding

Nope, I’m a crappy coder. I know some C and Pascal, but I certainly don’t do it for a living.

feel free to ask about such things in #gentoo-bugs

what driver are you using?

If I can’t find any packages that it breaks with Google, and many packages actively recommend the flag, I don’t see any evidence that it is bad.

Why doesnt my fresh gentoo install not have lspci?

i180, newest

I just want you to know i need this linux running fine for my diploma thesis. I do cache-oblivious algoeiths research and what i actually do is also to measure execution time.

ok, don’t know anything about that one

Tried as root?

and i wanted to optimize my machine a little bit more

I think it is part of pci-tools or some package like that. I thought everyone had it.

if i change my ram with some smaller ram is there any optimization setting i can change in gentoo or if i change to lager ram for that matter

Zom, havnent created any users yet, trying to get networking working, it seems i left the driver for my lan card out of the kernel

pciutils, my bad

Hello!

Ah, sorry

but can’t find out which lan card i have without lspci

heh, you should do some controlled benchmarks

I’ve can’t get DRI work with an ATI IGP 340M

different cflags in chroot environments on freshly formatted disks

As far as i know anyway. This is my first attempt with gentoo

for very small ram, -Os can be better than -O2

what do you mean? I do my own benchmarks

Try su and then try lspci as root

hey, my powersave detects almost nothing, /proc/acpi only contains the directories embedded_controller, ibm and power_resource.

mm i was thinking of that flag

any idea what the problem might be?

Uhhuh. NMI received for unknown reason b1 on CPU 0.

enderandrew, i just said i don’t have any other accounts but su i mean but roo

I keep getting “User account has expired” for all my users, though I can log in remotely. Can anyone help? Here’s my shadow and chage: http://www.mirc.net/paste/?1664

root

dmesg is under http://rafb.net/p/unEUjq95.html

s|’ve||

other than that linux auto adjusts to any ram u thro in it ay?

try to emerge pciutils then. I think lspci is in there.

no configering required

yes it is in there emerge pciutils — gives you access to lspci

nop, most of the ram is used for caches.

enderandrew, so i’ll have to reboot to the install cd then?

“Waiting for unfinished jobs”; what can i do to solve this im some updates i have this error that stop the emerge

anyone got their mouse working with xorg 7.4? 7.3

nop as in no configering required? sorry

mine works

what you get is realtime system

Uhhuh. NMI received for unknown reason b1 on CPU 0.

what version of xf86-input-mouse are you using?

oopps sorr

Please, may anybody help me? I don’t know where to start..

y

and whats your Driver for the mouse in xorg.conf?

I got black screen with 7.3, acn help?

that sounds like you lose all I/O too?

there is a bug with 7.3 using dbus: #191822

hey by the way

no… i have a simple interface for cycle counting and this non-preemptive execution is just for measuring the actual algo executions

-O -O2 etc

DrEeevilno… i have a simple interface for cycle counting and this non-preemptive execution is just for measuring the actual algo executions

ah, nice …

hi all. i use proxy to connect to internet. i already execute : export http_proxy=”ipaddress”, but when i try to run gpg to retrieve public it gives me invalid HTTP Proxy error. what’s wrong?

-they use -fromet-frame-pointer right?

I can’t get DRI working with an ATI IGP 340M ..

-fomit-frame-pointer, right.

is there a really easy way to make cron look ever so often and see if a program is running, and if it isn’t, run it without making a shell script?

“Waiting for unfinished jobs”; what can i do to solve this

DrEeevilbecause on heavy loaded systems the execution time get screwed even if i cycle count - the reason for that is interrupts.. but if i mask them

thats not the error

Is there a way to test if a specific port is open? I’m not sure how my router behaves to the outside world.

scroll up some more

so bug ports are not so detailed with -O -O2 etc ?

right, I haven’t had the need for low-level surgery like that yet …

hello people

nmap could do it

or do i have to make a shell scrip that makes a pid file and so on?

if so can you take -fomit… part out of those flags?

(EE) AIGLX: Screen 0 is not DRI capable ..

Hey

please help me

AlfadorJanus make a one line script that checks for it in ps aux and starts it if it’s not running. you can run the one line from cron or just put it in a file and have cron run the file

gnome don’t run

I just thought then u’d have good bug reports

no X functionally now

no need to get fomit-frame-pointer out, its pretty common.

Try and take a look at your kernel config. There’s a guide here: http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/How_to_make_ACPI_work#Kernel_configuration

DrEeevilso what do you think?

ah maybe i’ve allowed too few memory! bbl

thx loki

(if memory wasn’t the problem)

how can i check if aiglx and compositing is enabled?

glxinfo | grep AIGLX glxinfo | grep Compositingf *Compositing bey *bye

blank

i use proxy to connect to internet. i already execute : export http_proxy=”ipaddress”, but when i run gpg to retrieve public it gives me “invalid HTTP Proxy error”. what’s wrong?

maby i have it in reverse , doesn’t that mean you *don’t* get that extra stuff for bug reporting?

argh!! so i finally get udev to work with SUBSYSTEMS==”scsi”, ATTR{size}==”625142448″, ATTR{serial}=”WD-WCAPD2637232″, ATTRS{model}==”WDC WD3200KS-00P”, NAME=”storage6″ however when i try to mount /dev/storage6 it ALWAYS tells me that it’s already mounted or /mnt/foo is busy

Thanks, I’ll try it out

or is it the other way round

less /var/log/Xorg.0.log should give you an idea of the error.

loki, having a genkernel, it is all built as modules, and I have coldplug disabled… so I need to put all those modules in autostart?

i know it’s not already mounted and not busy.. what’s going on here

did you try sth. like http_proxy=”http://ip:port“?

I keep getting “User account has expired” for all my users, though I can log in remotely. Can anyone help? My shadow and chage: http://www.mirc.net/paste/?1664

what is sth

something

-fomit-frame-pointer leads to less debug information, but it will be enough for normal bughunting.

ow, sorry

I always build monolithically, but I guess that’s what I would do if I was forced to deal with modules.

i already execute export http_proxy=”ip:port”

hello, anyone are seeing my messages ?

tried adding http:// before the ip?

yes

no. Nobody sees you.

i see so -O2 etc is minus that debuging help

what do I think about what?

on a faster machine could you go like -O2 +fomint-frame-pointer

thx

dont use +

pastebin your error if you want people to reply. We are not mind readers.

I’m trying to update the wxGTK but in a part of emerge I get a error: “Waiting for unfinished jobs”; what can i do to solve this

does it work with that?

that is just a make warning

yes, it work

Anyone here known when will wxGTK-2.8 released ? And what about FileZilla 3.0 ?

but what can i do ?

that’s not the actual error. the error is above somewhere

scroll up some more and read tyhe actual error

wonderful, my laptop is stonedead

are u saying -O2 -fomint-frame-pointer would bring it back

ok, i’ll do now

it just hangs there? If yes, WOW. If no, that’s not the actual error.

oposed to -O2 would be without

i think there’s something i’m doing wrong with my udev.. it’s like trying to mount sdb instead of sdb1

so I have a wifi device connecting to my gentoo box via hostap, how do I setup dhcpd for my wlan0ap so it gives it an ip?

FileZilla 3.0 has been in beta for ages, but the beta builds work fine

enderandrew, I known that

http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_setup_DHCP

” -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer” will be the best for most.

is that with or without the extra debug stuff?

without.

enderandrew, note that stable FileZilla 3.0 is released

oh so -O2 is with ?

is the skype on portage not up to date? i cant find any webcam settings on it

I performed my own ebluid to install it ;D

yes.

?

But note that wxGTK-2.8.4 (that is needed by FileZilla-3.0) isn’t in portage form months

I had in mind that the linux hosting version does not have video functionallity yet

How do I choose which interface dhcpd should listen?

saschahl: drphibes: this is my paste http://www.mirc.net/paste/?1665

i googled it i see mentions of ppl talking abouit webcam on skype on linux but never say how. then in comments i see ppl asking where is the video support

can you see please ?

the official one from Skype. video is only available for Windows and Mac, IIRC

ah cause i was reading the make documentation and it seemed that the -O2 flag actualy removed it any way maybe i was wrong that was my confustion

oh that sucks only webcam i can get to work is amsn, and i hate that pos chat client

heh, blame skype …

ekiga works fine that does not contain errors, only warnings

please post it at a pastebin that doesn’t truncate the file

i dont see the fatal error there

b4 i start researching that, is there windows support?

yes, i’m posting the final part sorry

my friend got df show minus number, when he was trying to compile openoffice. how can it be?

i need somethng ic an be on linux and talk to n00bs on windows

this is the second part http://www.mirc.net/paste/?1666

had video successully running between ekiga/linux and something else on Mac

is it naughty to chroot an nfs directory?

all compilation that i’m trying to do this occur now

it’s pretty much standard so it should work with Windows

i’m trying to chroot and env-update but it just sticks

the program or does it use some standerized protocol?

it’s possible and working fine. if you take care…

kopete has msn webcam support. so everyone using windows can use the msn client.

i think i did everything right

If I wanted to make a compressed tarball backup of my entire system.. how would I go about it? “tar cpjf backup.tar.bz2 /” ?

the sip protocoll for talking is standard. I’m not sure if that covers the video too

it just says “regenerating..”

k im ganna emerge it and play around ty

but nothing else happens

I suggest doing that from a live cd play around with different mounting optione, like doing it over tcp, locking, … and did you mount –bind /proc and /dev and so?

–exclude=/proc and things i didn’t bind proc or dev

should I ignore some directories …yea.. /proc and what else?

should i?

your dynamic linker is screwed up, it seems. Please pastebin the output of emerge –info

is there a way to reset the terminal?

/proc /sys and /dev

it’s stick now.

reset resets the terminal

i don’t have a prompt

how can i conect here without a X server ?

and it’s a good idea to bind them otherwise some tools don’t work right, like “top”

there a hotkey?

in terminal can I ?

irssi

do it within a livecd session. Easier that way.

thanks

sorry, wrong nick do it within a livecd session. Easier that way.

k

Try using BitchX or irssi

if it is stuck in the program, then ^C or ^]

how, i don’t know

yeah, i learned that a while ago. ctrl-atl-del works in the chroot even when you bind those

if you are in the prompt (just don’t see it), reset should fix it

You:l have to emerge one of those

anyone know a way to extract things from a lappy hdd? if the laptop is defunctionable

define defunctionable

lol nothing works

nonfunctional

i think nfs has crashed too reboot time i guess.

it won’t show up in bios on the laptop

you can insert the harddrive somewhere else (like external 2,5″ case)

there are converter plugs to the hdd interface, which will enable you to plug it into an ordinary system

if you can boot a live cd maybe you have luck that it recognizes it anyway

ok, i’ll do this and log here again thanks for now

did u install anything in to /usr/local

if i put a dev in my fstab to mount, but tell it not to mount, will i be ablke to mound such dev as normal user?

try to kill -9 the bash prozess from outside the chroot

What is broken on the laptop?

i have a usb hdd and some partitons on my drive id ont kepe mounted, and i would like to be able to mount them easily

practicly everythin, first it couldn’t find the disk, now it wont boot

yes, when set the “user” option too along with “noauto”

how do you bypass a blocked package?

now I’m remaking the server to a ws

yeah i did. but i just tried to tab the mounted folder and it’s locked again

its saying ‘[blocks B ] dev-lang/python-2.3.6-r2 (is blocking app-admin/python-updater-0.2)’

i think im having problems with my USE=”" settings

leading me to believe something’s wronf wrong too.

kk ty

JDLSpeedy, unemerge python-updater then emerge python

o ok, i thought is vs versa

wait are you updating python?

do NOT unmerge python

I know that part lol

we will point and laugh if you do

nfs (b)locked too for me when playing around with it. but when it runs, it runs

argh.. this is my last try.. =/ then i’m going to start thinking twice about udev totally

anyone have a evga 8800GTS 640MB ?

Hi. I’ve compiled thunderbird with debug symbols enabled but /usr/bin/thunderbird is a stub. How do I run gdb against it ?

find the real thunderbird or -bin executable

is there a way to leave USE=”" blank and have it to where when u install something it automadicly has hte flags it can use, as will its depenicys what ever flags they want?

saschahl, yeah, it’s a script too as well /usr/libexec/mozilla-launcher

Asking for people doesn’t usually work. So, what’s the problem?

gotta sleep, bye

no problem thinking of buying one to replace my 7800GT

hello. I am having trouble getting my wireless networking to work.

that is not even valid grammar

can it be done?

DavidProck1981 your profile already assigns USE flags, even if you specify none in /etc/make.conf

DavidProck1981, Nope - you may not abdicate your choices under Gentoo

if you rephrase that in valid english we may understand your issue

YOu can set it up so USE is blank, but you’d have to add package-specific USE flags into /etc/portage./package.use for everything you want to use. And you wouldn’t automatically get USE flags on new packages. Better to set global USE flags.

well i cant get gnome or kde installed, could my choices in the USE=”" be stoping it

if you manage to tell us _how_ it doesn’t want to get installed …

hm i binded dev and proc

ok brb

it’s locking up in the same place

iirc, setting USE=”" does not do what you’re trying to

is it possible to create multiple virtual interfaces with different macs in /etc/conf.d/net?

hello. I am having trouble getting my wireless networking to work.

sonofmartha, Ive never tried it … why don’t you test ?

can’t get it to work…

sonofmartha, why do you need different MACs

is there a way to scrool up in irssi ?

Page Up

page up works

one mac needs to stay the same, other mac needs to keep changing so that DHCP server gives different IPs

my gentoo install boot’s fine, but my /boot is empty when i login as root? (and it’s mounted)

ah, thanks

Anyone here a portage maintainer ?

no. What’s up?

it’s weird because /boot works when i mount it with the install cd

kojiro, i’m looking for a portage maintainer ;D

sonofmartha, that will fail as you cannot normally have one than one IP in a subnet

why?

well i guess this nfs thing is never going to work. how can i build packages for a different arch?

it’s called crosscompiling, though I have not set it up myself faq crosscompiling

No such faq

faq cross compiling

No such faq

:/

MilesAway, You mean like for PPC on an x86 box ?

x86 on x86-64 um, compiling things for a laptop

faq cross

No such faq

what can i use to open appledouble files

i usually use nfs and chroot

ok, then. do i *need* xf86-video-mga?

kojiro, I’ve got suggestions to purpose

DrEeevil how can i paste from one terminal to the other, so i can put it in a paste bin site?

bugzilla is the best place for that

Is Gayle a male or a female name?

female, mostly

thx

next time, don’t ask here.

NeddySeagoon I am pretty sure it should work. One of the interfaces will be used only for communication inside the subnet

any one know of a pastebin site to allow upload a file to get hte paste

kojiro, I don’t think so I and a friend usually to suggests things on bugzilla without succes. Same if we post papers.

Hightlight with the first button, paste with the third button. This is pretty basic stuff. Maybe read up a little?

how important is xf86-video-mga to xorg?

Are you familiar with wgetpaste?

teach DavidProck1981 about paste

Use http://rafb.net/paste or emerge wgetpaste. Pasting in #gentoo itself clutters the chat and will get you kicked by Naamah. Use the aforementioned site and hand us the URL so we can check it out.

sonofmartha, have you read /etc/conf/net.example ?

that’s a video driver

Here’s the rub, though — if bugs.gentoo.org doesn’t get you the result you want, portage maintainers will not give you the answer you want, either

so.. rather important. if you have a matrox card

they’re the ones looking at the bug…

wgetpaste what is that

emerge it and read the docs

it’s a pastebin tool

yep

ok

kojiro, There no bugs ;D

BRB

ok, so i don’t need to worry about it, since no matrox good

that doesn’t make sense

Can anyone tell me how I can run gdb against thunderbird in Gentoo ?

The help we give in here tends to be pretty optimized. We won’t ask you to go do something unless it’s the shortest way to give you what you want.

The only thing that would make him more annoying is if he was heavy on the line-breaks, which thankfully, he is not.

kojiro, I performed my own ebuilds for wxGTK and FileZilla. All is ok but no one want to add that work in portage

sonofmartha My own net is all static, so I can’t easily try for you

a portage maintainer wouldn’t be able to help you with that. Those guys work on the *application* Portage, not the Portage tree.

Submit enhancement bugs and attach the ebuild to them. Also, check out the sunrise overlay, and the process around it.

anyone got Xorg 7.3 running?

yes mouse not working yet, otherwise fine

with xserver 1.4?

yes randr working perfectly \o/

yes, running “completely” here. has some bugs though

mariux, perhaps you need to reinstall xf86-input-mouse to get your mouse working….

im not understanding wgetpaste

dang

im trying that now mycroes , but thanks

keep trying

until I installed xserver 1.4 it worked fine

Can anyone tell me how I can run gdb against thunderbird in Gentoo ?

now I can’t get it started…

probably the dbus thing reported

yeah

remerge without hal useflag

gdb program exec

brb

whats the dbus bug?

saschahl, thanks

You pipe output into it. What’s hard to understand?

http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=191822

hello, do u guys know if qemu still works on gentoo?

it works, but not with gcc4

/lastlog lnxnt sorry

yea, thats what i have so i guess theres nothing i can do?

Try “wgetpaste –help”

ecksit, you can install gcc 3.4.

use gcc3 to compile it …

 

Secure Geeklog Host

 

ecksit, and remember to use gcc3

i dont think i have gcc3, i only have gcc-4.1.2

hi all

ecksit, its slotted so you *can* have it

wgetpaste -i ? then do -r?

could someone please help me a with this ati tv-out pal/ntsc problem. i cant set the refrate with xrandr to 50 for some reason, i dont know if its because of a wrong mode line or what but im at a loss and need help or clues

can Gentoo be run on the latest MacBook Pro’s ?

i have a touchpad and the corners r like right click and middle click. how do i change the sizes of these?? i know its all logical and not physical buttons in the pad cuz it only worked when i put in the driver

i get console on tv on b/w, so if i’d get that in color that would be a big plus on its own

sorry, do you mean i have to emerge gcc-3 and mask all later versions to have it?

how can I rename a file called V\\Users\\Maximilian ?

ecksit gcc is slotted - you may install many versions and choose one to use with gcc-config. Your choice remains in effect until you choose another version

I tried single quotes, double quotes I guess the double quotes come from tab completion

yields this name

YOu have something in your clipboard you want to show us? Or in a file?

would it be easier to install bochs instead?

virtualbox might fit your needs better

anyone able to run gentoo on macbook pro with nvidia ?

anyone? any ideas?

Try posing an actual problem, rather than asking general questions. oops

you hurt my feelings no more beer for you!

on the other term its on a clip, while on that one i also put it in a file

does it support minix?

Fine by me, I don’t drink =P

no more cola and limonade ofr you?

ecksit, building gcc takes a while but its not complex

brb

let me guess.. xorg-server 1.4 doesn’t work with fglrx?

I haven’t tried, but I’d assume it does correct you win a banana

omg how to exit wgetpaste

Anyone managed to get mouse running with xorg-7.3, mariux?

haleluja

nope, its not moving

hardmask latest xorg-server then?

n/m i killed it

just remerge xf86-input-mouse

sure, go ahead

synaptics needs a patch

luckily kde works great with keyboard control that didn’t help

yup, synaptics won’t compile

synaptics has a patch.. sync in few minutes

what does the xorg.log file tell?

you also need to restart the X server. CTRL ALT BACKSPACE.

mouse wasn’t configured, using default i know

the inputdevice option “AlwaysCore” didn’t work stangely, but “SendCoreEvents” did (for synaptics users)

ahhh! dlopen /usr/lib…./mouse_drv.so undefined symbol: miPointerGetMotionEvents failed to load module

but you reemerged it already after upgrading xorg-server?

remerge xf86-input-mouse

odd one here sys-apps/setarch (is blocking sys-apps/util-linux-2.13-r1)

and I wouldn’t recommend the new xorg…

but I’ve already done emerge -C setarch

i need the new xorg for the randr-stuff and btw, its working perfectly

the old xorg already supported the randr stuff

a patch for?

and when I try it again it says — Couldn’t find ’setarch’ to unmerge.

not here, no. It fails to controll the leds of my keyboard, it has problems with nividia (even with -ignoreABI), but however, remerge the named package and it should be fine

well, it didn’t behave correctly

so if i need to compile gcc3, which version should i get? *would it be optimal?

ooho. got mouse running… when using no xorg.conf, it is running nice on gdm, but when I enter into xfce, it acts weird

the problem is only in xfce?

dunno

*restart X

have no other DE

synaptics..

oh

no impovment impr*

zarathustra*

wilymage?

zarathustra

no, I mean zaratustra

That’s what Google asked me.

lol

Are u spellcheker or what:P

Strauss and Nietzsche both spelled it Zarathustra, iirc.. Nah just bored at work and mildly anal-retentive

well, I live in country where we write as we speak

must get noisy in exams

n0t

does Xorg -configure _works_ on Xorg 7.3?

7.3 should be hard masked

is anyone else haveing problems emerging xf86-video-mga-1.4.7

afaik

some drivers on Xorg 7.3 doesn’t compile

ok ill just make it then

going back to 7.2

one of the developers told me some of the drivers still aren’t ported to the new input system

Hello, what is the way to see if I am on some group (id) without restarting X and logout? and then login?

input/video drivers

/etc/group

if you add on some group, you need to close X and logout to changes has effect, it is not possible to do it without these steps?

Hi. Any ideas on how to resolve my problem with the latest amarok ebuild? I’ve emerged QT successfully, and also on advice from here, emerged qt3 to get some other packages for Kde working, but Amarok still has the same problem Pastebin at: http://www.rafb.net/p/8STCkz68.html

env-update not

who wants to see lot of plasmoids? http://maitei.dreamhosters.com/network-plasmoids.png who wants to see lot of plasmoids? a href=”http://maitei.dreamhosters.com/network-plasmoids.png”http://maitei.dreamhosters.com/network-plasmoids.png/a

what does X has to do with groups?

well, how to do it then if I am under X?

yooo

have you added user via some GUI crap or via terminal?

yo guys any1 know why emergeing gnome is taking more than 24 hours

z$ whoami && grep developers /etc/group && id ruben developers:x:3002:ruben uid=1000(ruben) gid=1000(ruben) groups=10(wheel),18(audio),19(cdrom),35(games),1000(ruben),3001(world),3004(vmware) I am on grou developers, but id does not show it group

i think im having major distcc problems

so the only way is close X and logout

gpasswd or?

vi /etc/group

i think emerging gnome uninstalled my ati drivers… screenx is fudged and it wont finish emerging i get a few distcc errors now and then 2

$ sudo gpasswd -a ruben developers Adding user ruben to group developer $ id uid=1000(ruben) gid=1000(ruben) groups=10(wheel),18(audio),19(cdrom),35(games),1000(ruben),3001(world),3004(vmware) does not workm too

man newgrp

geez, haev no clue have

never worked for me though.

saschahl:

You have to re-login.

re-logins is close X and then logout & login?

Unfortunately, yes. Or login on another virtual terminal, if that will work for you. But the current terminal will not have you in that group until you re-login on it.

okey, has sence now

or open a terminal and ssh to localhost

this behavior comes frome the first UNIX? when the people fix it?

It may be considered undesirable from a security perspective to “fix” it, as you say.

no need to fix what is not broken

maybe it is not broken, but does not works if you do no ‘re-login’

Consider it a security feature.

distcc help?

why is more secure?

that is good

them, why? then so, adding to a group and do not using untile close everithing is more secure?

on my OS X laptop, I can connect (from windows) to it by going to \\macbook\myusername how do I enable this kind of thing in linux?

install and configure samba

//macbok/user man smbclient

why is the whole forum locked?

you can also use mount.smbfs/cifs

they’re doing updates

evil doers

bobber205 kde + gnome let you do that in the konqueror and nautilus by doing smb://hostname/share i didn’t even configure smb.conf and i can still browse

I need to “start” the service so my windows computer can connect to it

if you want to access linux from windows you need to set up the samba server. if linux is the client there are a lot of ways

anyone know how to use the iwconfig mode repeater?

ok. I’m emerging samba now

here’s the update schedule for the forum: http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/forums/forum-downtime200709.xml

I juts setup samba so that I could access linux host via windows vmware guest and use printers

that’s what I’m doing

bobber205 once you configure samba, it’ll share out your linux web hosting printers by default

what version of samba are you emerging?

now xorg-server 1.3 fails aswell, argh

bobber205, 3.0.25c has a fubar init script easy to fix though

anyone know the package name that holds hashlib for python?

Anyone know how to fix my “emerge amarok” problem? http://www.rafb.net/p/8STCkz68.html

it’s included in python

VforVendetta -visualization made amarok build for me, it had been trying to pull in some old gstreamer stuff

the script isnt finding it

any1 know why emergeing gnome is taking more than 24 hours i think im having major distcc problems i think emerging gnome uninstalled my ati drivers… screenx is fudged and it wont finish emerging i get a few distcc errors

I’ll add the flag, and try again

ImportError: No module named hashlib

pr00f, gnome, all of it is a big package, rather a collection of packages

more than 24 hrs?

VforVendetta, dev-python/PyQt-3.17 dies on you not amarok itself

i feel like somthing messed up the packages if thats possible… still new im getting dist cc errors

pr00f, depends on your hardware

yep, that’s correct

duel core 2 gigs ram

pr00f thats far too long on that hardware … whats distcc for ?

VforVendetta 2.10.6 is the pygtk version i have installed.

dunno while emerging i get DISTCC ERROR cant tell u right now cause im syncing

pr00f that box is quite capable of building gnome for itself, it doesn’t need distcc to help

“The only reason for hiding your comments were to remove your FUD from this community.”

Going locally instead

does that sounds good, english is not my language

and brings up a differant static ip hosting adress on the same network

pr00f, thats not an error.

is it normal for a laptop battery to drop to 97% the second the ac is inplugged? and then 1%/min?

pr00f, You must not sync while emerge is running

wait its more like 2%/min

hi there

You might want to think about getting acpi,speedstep, etc. running.

matt271__, the step drop is ok, the discharge rate depends on the batter and what you are doing

speedstep is that in powersave? i emerged powersaved but it dont work for any of the cpu freq settings

I need some help, im trying to install gentoo but after selecting the mountpoints this message shows up /mnt/gentoo/etc/passwd: no such file or directory

http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/power-management-guide.xml

ty

keysmaker what are you typing to get that?

im using the console installer

How should I emerge pygtk so it installs for use by amarok?

after i select the / mountpoint and the swap, that message shows up

how would you make a partition writable to a user when it is mounted

i stopped gnome just to sync cause im getting errors

i deleted everything from my /home partition and now it doesnt recognize me as the user

is there a way to delete the packages i have and reemerge? emergeing gnome got rid of my fglrx driver 2

do i need to redo useradd or change something in fstab?

stupid gnome

ecksit, ls -lah /home and chown username:users your home directory if you don’t own it VforVendetta my system is ~x86, so it pulls a different version

that explains the diff. then. mine’s amd64

tdr can you help me please_

ok, i mean so it always has those values, so i dont have to do it every time

keysmaker i’ve never used the installer, sorry

do you mean “emerge -C package”?

ecksit, did you completely wipe your home directory out before or something?

what is a another way for install it

keysmaker manual install using the handbook + a stage 3

how do you actually search the gentoo forums how come the search is so borked

yes, exactly i took everything from a backup

ok thanks i will look forward D

ecksit, whenever you remake the home directory as root, you’ll always have to change who owns it. when you add a user with adduser -m username, it creates the username + fixes the permissions of the home direcotory it makes.

n3Cre0, use google some +search +terms site:forums.gentoo.org

so should i rerun adduser for it to set the permissions?

ecksit not, it will fail if the username already exists

chown -R user:users /home/user/

it apears as if my wireless is wastung my battey

i guess i dont need to do that anymore, sorry

it probaby is, intel have a top-like utility that shows power usage of processess, the name escapes me at the moment though…

but google cache isn’t fresh enough for me now

ill google intel power useage tools

Anyone know how to get a successful “emerge amarok” on AMD64 platform? Error pastebin: http://www.rafb.net/p/8STCkz68.html

linux power top?

hiho

hang on and I’ll look for you

when will there be a new release for the livecd and with which kernel?

great xorg-server 1.2 and 1.3 fail to compile and 1.4 doesn’t work with 1.4 :’( I’m fscked

yeah powertop

awesome ty

[blocks B ] x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers (is blocking x11-base/xorg-server-1.4) wtf?

you need CONFIG_TIMER_STATS=y in your kernel, though

wait a few weeks until nvidia fixes their junk

i used genkernel on my laptop. i have a half configed kernal also in my boot loader but i cant get things like wireless to work on it

alternatively don’t upgrade xorg

what driver do i need for ati rage mobility?

That’s irritating.

(x driver)

no

is it ati

don’t

yes

so don’t use binary blobs

xf86-video-ati, driver “ati” in xorg.conf

oh it seems to be working w/ my genkernel great ty

DrEeevil, easier said than done. HEh.

anyone with fglrx and xorg-server 1.4N ?

You need to downgrade renderproto and libXrender before xorg-server..

I have 4051088kb of memory and the nvidia driver dies horribly with that amount

ok drac will do

steveno, you wanted it to print info about yours?

hi there…

heya akSeya

oh, my bad

i’m a Slackware user for about 3 years now.. i’m thunking about trying gentoo :-p

thats my info

akSeya, you won’t regret it

:p I saw that you have a LiveDVD, minimal CD install… and other images I can download…

had it been two years ago, it would have been a bottle of booze

How can I get the firefox save dialog to look prettier.. if I am using fluxbox?

please correct me if i’m wrong, as I use emerge, i’m going to download the source code needed to install some apps

correct

akSeya, you can install from slack too

emerge is going to download the source and do the compiling and installing too

is there a way to do a “offline installation” like.. downloading a DVD with something, and then use it as “repositorie” ?!

possible, but tricky

NeddySeagoon, what do you mean? i am also a slack user and i am thinking of trying gentoo

hum…

you can install Gentoo from any other distribution or livecd or whatever

well.. cleaning up my system here… deleted about 15Gb of MP3…

_comzeradd_, you do not need Gentoo, nor a Gentoo CD to install Gentoo. Any Linux will do. You do need soem space on your drive in which to install

i think I have wnouth free space now :p s/wnouth/enouth well.. thanks guys.. going to rezise my slackware partition and start some gentoo reading

good thinking

if you are running slack getting gentoo in is going to be a breese.

nattdyr, well.. we will see first I was thinking to move to gentoo only when I buy a core 2 dual notebook.. well.. have to umount my / here for repartitioning… talk to you later!!!

Du kan så si. wrong window

c ya

How can I prevent the firefox text form fields from inheriting my gtk theme’s BG color?

Hello everyone, I’m trying to set up ALSA but I’m having some troubles. Can someone tell me how to uninstall the media-sound/alsa-driver package from gentoo?

hello, i was looking for the gentoo icon set that used to be on the gentoo page, any idea where i could find this now? is it still around?

I keep getting “User account has expired” for all my users, though I can log in remotely. Can anyone help? Here’s my shadow and chage: http://www.mirc.net/paste/?1664

Has anyone tried out the xorg-server 1.4 with the hal use flag and gotten it to work?

I think there were some copyright issues that weren’t easily resolved

http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/alsa-guide.xml

i just upgraded to samba 3.0.25c and now my XP computer cant connect to shares

naturegirl, emerge -C alsa-drivers

Weedy, upgrade to 3.0.25c-r1

Hamartia, done, still broke

yes I looked many times, but it always didn’t work out, now I’m trying again, but I forgot what I messed up a few months ago ^^” but thx I will try again

did you take the new samba.conf?

Weedy, your prvious line says 3.0.25c

naturegirl, do you have /dev/snd and /dev/sound ?

When I try to start X with the server compiled with the hal use flag I get a dbus signal failure, and it crashes the server and corrupts the display.

yeah etc-update

/etc/portage/package.keywords

yop actually everything works fine, I got throu all the steps and also managed to configure alsamixer

Weedy

? updating config gimme a sec

naturegirl, why do you want to remove alsa-drivers then ?

but somehow it still doesn’t work, I think it’s because I previously installed the alsa-driver package, and it says that both options are mutually exclusive.

naturegirl, have you unmuted and turned up the mixer levels ?

I don’t know what I did before, so I figure out it’s best to start from the beginning again ^^, or do you want me to show you some config files? yes of course, I’m not stupid

naturegirl, I never thought you were stupid … rule one of fault finding is assume nothing

so they’re gone for good most likely?

I’m sorry

naturegirl, np …

it’s just very late already ok so when I open madplay it gives me this error ALSA lib pcm_hw.c:1351_snd_pcm_hw_open) Invalid value for card No such device

naturegirl, if you have /dev/snd and /dev/sound and they have files in them, your kernel and alsa-drivers are both ok

how do i get memcoder on gentoo ?

whazilla mencoder is part of mplayer

i dont get it when emerging mplayer

naturegirl how many sound devices do you have ?

that is a distinct possibility

one sound card, if that’s what you mean

i’d like to offer rw-access of my server’s distfiles-dir over an encrypted connection to a selected group of computers. any recommendations on how to accomplish that?

whazilla try the encode USE flag

kool thkx … but i think i did lemme check

naturegirl, a web cam with a mic counts as one, a TV card with sound capture … odds and ends like that naturegirl, are you in the audio group ?

tdr yup i have that allready set

whazilla, the acidrip, kmenc15, and konverter packages install it

but still i dont get mencoder

Hi. Can anyone tell me what the correct Xorg setting should look like for an intel x3100 chipset? I’m getting a whole host of warnings left and right with this sucker.

thkx Telexen

no, how can I join it? well I have a sound card and a webcam, but maybe we could leave the webcam out first?

naturegirl, I would edit /etc/group but thats rather looked down on here

oh you mean me as a user yes I am i thought that was some gentoo user group ^^

naturegirl the webcam mic will appear as a sound card … playing music via your webcam is usually disappointing, it took mae a long time to get my sound devices to load in the right order naturegirl, unplug your webcam and restart alsasound

hehe ok

again same error but now I see there are errors with alsasound too nulix naturegirl # /etc/init.d/alsasound restart you are stopping a boot service. * Storing ALSA Mixer Levels … save_state:1253: No soundcards found… * Error saving levels. [ !! ] * Killing processes using ALSA … [ ok ]

does anyone had a linksys wrt55agv2?

Hey checking for KDE… configure: error: in the prefix, you’ve chosen, are no KDE headers installed. This will fail. So, check this please and use another prefix! I’m getting this when I try doing the ./configure for a program (non-portage) what should I set the prefix to?

ups sorry, didn’t know this would get me kicked out ^^”

naturegirl, you can’t paste here

./configure –prefix=`kde-config –prefix`

anyone???? does anyone had a linksys wrt55agv2?

yuriks if you’re using portage, you shouldn’t have to set any prefix. try etc-update then env-update; source /etc/profile then try again

if you want to know.

I said, (non-portage) =P

save_state:1253: No soundcards found…* Error saving levels. “

naturegirl, lets do some tests with alsamixer. do alsamixer -c 0 does it open ? if so, try again with -c 1

checking for mcopidl… not found error: The important program mcopidl was not found! well, crap

Module snd_interwave not found. “

I have been trying to update my gentoo boxes this weekend, but seem to have hit a fairly hard wall. As best as I can tell (googling and log file reading), I have been hit by the libexpat upgrade.

yuriks well if you’re not using portage, you can’t really expect support in #gentoo for it

Failed to load necessary drivers “

what package is that program in?

I think I just messed a lot of things up

you don’t have kdelibs installed do you?

naturegirl, it looks like you have already removed alsa-drivers Are you sure you have /dev/snd and /dev/sound populated ?

Right now, I’m stuck with gnome-power-manager on one system (which is explicitly looking for libexpat.so.0).

hey say, why I’m getting /usr/bin/wine: cannot execute binary file ? Does anybody know anything about it?

I do

actually noo t.t

naturegirl, then the kernel is missing the drivers for your sound card. Its late where I am and even later where you are, I suggest this is an issue for another day

teach kusznir about expat

expat-2.0.1 is not ABI compatible with earlier versions. Run the following in bash to fix: “emerge -n1 ‘=portage-2.1.2.12′ portage-utils && emerge -qep world | grep –color=never -oFf (scanelf -plRBF ‘%F %n’ | awk ‘/libexpat.so.0/{print $1}’ | xargs qfile -qC | sort -u; echo -e “libtool\ncurl”) | xargs emerge -1″. If a specific package fails, “/msg mzbot faq remerge-deep” for advice (gtk+/pango are common).

but I thought I just recompiled my kernel succesfully with the driver of my sound card as a module ok I wish you a good night, but I need to fix it before school starts lol

I’m getting a tone of enteries like “reference to entity “lat2″ for which no system identifier could be generated”. These are coming from the doc directory build. I haven’t seen any references to libexpat.

naturegirl, if so, its not loaded …. modprobe it

i did too

naturegirl, than its the wrong module for your card … what does lspci say about your sound card ?

what’s with this error? checking whether the C compiler works… configure: error: cannot run C compiled programs.

naturegirl or your kernel install went wrong, what is the date/time in uname -a ?

Intel High Definition Audio Controller (ICH6 Family) and my module is snd-hda-intel

naturegirl thats snd-hda-intel

3 GMT

naturegirl, good - thats your new kernel

lol and the module snd-hda-intel is right?

naturegirl, what happens when you do modprobe snd-hda-intel

no errors, so I suppose they load

type dmesg and find out

naturegirl, do you have /dev/snd populated now ?

hey all. I just added SMS File Systems Support and CIFS support in my kernel and I marked them as modules what do I do next to properly finish this?

what d’u mean by populated? ls returns me that there are 7 files in it

naturegirl, yes /dev/snd with files == populated

make modules_install

ok so it is populated? *yay*

ok. that is done. now what?

oh and /dev/sound also has 6 files. So I hope that’s a good sign

naturegirl look in /etc/modules.d/alsa … I suspect its trying to laod the wrong module for your card

thanks drac , got my X back

naturegirl yep /dev/snd is your ALSA /dev/sound, ALSAs emulated OSS interface

this is the kernel you are currently running?

Is that kinda like your mojo?

yes

modprobe the modules it created

excuse me?

here’s my output. what words am I looking for? http://rafb.net/p/EBBZCV15.html

Got your mojo back? nm

I’m a bit confused, there is “alias snd-card-0 snd-interwave” and ” alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0″

mojo? No, I managed to get xorg-server downgraded to 1.3

alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0 alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0 srywrong paste

naturegirl “alias snd-card-0 snd-interwave” is the line that loads your sound module … snd-interwave should be snd-hda-intel

alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel alias sound-slot-0 snd-hda-intel yop somehow it’s there twice, but at the bottom it loads the right module

—- that stuff is correct. Comment out the stuff above there

should I leave this? “alias /dev/dsp snd-pcm-oss”

naturegirl, then run modules-update restart alsasound and retest

I ran the command that mzbot recommended on my laptop (cut & paste), and I ended up (after several minutes of intensive hard drive access) with a emerge usage statement.

naturegirl yes

did you lookat my paste?

then you copied something wrong I presume you could try running revdep-rebuild from gentoolkit

nice, no errors

looks like that where not created, maybe a make is needed. i dont know off hand

naturegirl, good start … but does it work ?

wow it’s playing my mp3 without errors except… no sound ^^” ok I will look at alsamixer again

Hi all

alsamixer is muted by default

naturegirl now run alsamixer … mute everything except Master and PCM

I have neither master nor F

naturegirl Mute is the switch you operate with m when the control is highlighed.

I have PCM and PC Speak, but somehow I can only adjust volume at PC SPeak

naturegirl, PCM then

sorry. I had to reboot

unmute PCM and PC SPeak and mute the rest?

http://rafb.net/p/EBBZCV15.html

naturegirl but mute everything thats not required

what modules do I need to probe?

Is it possible to try out x module on my with my existing kernel, I ask because theres a new module sony-laptop and I would like to try it with out upgrading the kernel fully ( panics ) and I have no time to debug ?

wow firefox is getting worse..

I don’t see anything about SAMBA support in there anywhere how do I tell what module I need to “probe” when I compile a new kernel module

look in the help section in menuconfig for that driver can help

ls /lib/modules/X?X/kernel/ ?

or what daxroc said

what did he say? and where is the help for that driver located? nvm found the help part

dur

I usually check the help option when configuring the kernel and write them down, but yeah you can look in /lib/modules/xxx/kernel/… and youll find them
