<0> It boots the goddamned system. Qt can't be running at that point
<1> gaa
<1> i get the error message : "Error parsing proxy URL http://proxy.server.com:port: Bad port number.
<1> and i dont even know where to change into a real one
<1> wheee it works :)
<1> nope it dont
<1> arrg stupid proxy
<1> now i get Resolving proxy.gentoo.org... failed: Name or service not known
<2> is it worth it to try to get XGL working in gentoo w/ an ATI card?
<1> what have i done wrong?
<3> gameman73: figure it out?
<2> robz_: are you installing gentoo?
<1> yes
<1> i think i am going to throw my computer out of the window
<0> You may want to look into another distribution; Gentoo's quite advanced.
<1> well i have been running slackware for like 3 years
<0> Oh pah. Slack's nothing :P
<1> wanted to try something new
<0> You don't need to follow _every_ step in the installation handbook, iirc
<0> I've never come across that proxy ****.
<2> robz_: It sounds like possibly you may have configured a proxy like it says in the handbook
<1> ok
<2> robz_: but that is an optional step
<1> yea i know
<2> robz_: if possible undo that part
<0> If you don't have a HTTP proxy in place, you don't need to set one up.
<1> well how do i undo that one?
<0> No idea :D
<1> arrg
<0> I'm gonna have to get the handbook out now. And I was gonna do some work today
<1> windows have 1 good thing
<1> the installation
<1> just press next next next and next
<0> Gentoo has never had an "easy" install. It never will.
<1> until the end
<0> That's the _point_
<1> yea i know
<4> it's an easy install if you already understand linux
<4> :>
<2> it looks like some proxy variable might be set
<1> yea
<0> How does one unset a proxy variable again?
<0> Er, wtf. An environment variable.
<2> did you ever do some command like this robz_? # export http_proxy="http://proxy.gentoo.org:8080";
<2> unset cmomand maybe Two9A ?
<0> Duh. `unset`
<1> yea
<1> i did that one
<5> kernel /boot/bzImage root=/dev/sda4 vga=0x318 video=vesafb:mtrr:3,ywrap
<0> Ok, `unset http_proxy`
<1> all of them
<1> rsync and ftp too?
<0> You set all of them?
<5> anyone see anything wrong with that?
<5> i get a kernel panic :<
<1> :)
<0> Didn't you see the "OPTIONAL" bit?
<1> yea
<2> oteren: take the /boot off of /boot/bzImage
<1> but i got other problems so i did that part
<0> "I'll do it anyway, won't hurt"
<0> YES IT WILL
<2> oteren: I had to do that yesterday to get mine to boot
<5> but /boot is endlessly symlinked
<5> and i retrieve the kernel, thats not the problem
<1> hmm
<0> What's the panic?
<5> i get a panic regarding root disk
<1> seems to work now
<1> tnz
<1> tnx*
<5> lol, forgot to add that
<6> http://pastebin.ca/88335 error im gettin while tryin to execute qtorrent
<2> oteren: prolly changed my config around somehow by accident
<5> "check the root= parameter" or something
<5> it said
<0> Yeah, check the root parameter. Is it pointing at / ?
<1> hmm
<1> downloading the kernel
<5> yes Two9A
<5> kernel /boot/bzImage root=/dev/sda4 vga=0x318 video=vesafb:mtrr:3,ywrap
<5> thats correct
<1> lets just see how long time this is going to take until i can start up irssi
<0> And you have SCSI compiled in?
<5> yes
<5> its a serial ata though
<0> Do you have that compiled in? ;)
<5> yeah "D
<5> :D
<5> i'll double check my kernel
<5> and then reboot to write down the specific error
<5> got it at 0200 last night, and didnt have time to sit back down with it before now :p
<1> hmm
<1> ERROR: kernel source directory "/usr/src/linux" was not found!
<5> hmm, Support for SATA (deprecated; conflicts with libata SATA driver)
<1> i know i have made a folder named that
<5> what is 'libata sata driver'>
<5> ?
<3> robz_: if you made that a folder
<3> youre doing it very wrong
<1> hmm
<1> well something like that in the beginning
<1> i typed as the manual told me
<7> Yeah, it's supposed toi be a symlink
<7> the ln -s command
<3> ln -sf /usr/src/linux-2.x.x-blah /usr/src/linux
<1> ahh ok
<7> sf?
<3> soft, force
<7> force?
<3> man ln
<7> Just s usually works
<3> not if it already exists
<1> well i cant even find a file named /usr/src/linuxblablabla
<5> Two9A, i admit, i thought sata support was selected when i chose my chipset from the dma-support branch of the ata support. This libata stuff hints at me being wrong though. Mind explaining specifically how i turn on sata support?
<3> robz_: then you have no kernel
<3> source
<1> ahh ok
<7> Oh
<1> i think i am going to write down a step by step manual to gentoo :)
<1> not any confusing text
<1> just basic to get it to work fast
<3> why would you do that?.. the handbook is exactly that
<8> ther is a quick guide somewhere on gentoo.org
<1> i think its kinda confusing
<1> yea
<1> but i was told to use the big one
<1> :/
<3> if you think its confusing, perhaps you need to get more experience with linux
<3> gentoo isnt the best of distros to start with
<2> robz_: keep at it dude, it usually takes a couple times to get your first gentoo install going
<3> heh
<1> well i am only using it for small server
<1> well i tried to install gentoo a long time ago
<1> on my old laptop
<1> that whas hard
<2> robz_: you'll enjoy it, it is awesome to watch portage working
<1> without internet
<3> as awesome as watching paint dry?
<3> heh
<2> robz_: doh
<0> oteren: No idea about sata, I've never used it
<3> its just a kernel driver
<0> Anyway, I'm gonna try initng. bye
<2> ShALLaX: way better than that..
<3> in the scsi subsection
<1> i printed out the entire big manual at school
<1> and checked of every step one by one
<1> i got it working in the end
<5> brujoh, i'm doing my 20th install or something and i cant even get my own kernel working
<1> but then i was stuck with nothing
