<0> <3 gnome
<1> kikr run the nvidia installer
<1> dont bother to use the kernel driver
<2> where's that located?
<1> nvidia.com
<3> no
<3> ....
<0> ***uming that you have a nvidia card
<3> emerge nvidia-drivers
<3> its the ****ing same
<1> that works too
<2> error: the media-video/nvidia-glx package conflicts with another package
<3> because alot of people somehow think that nvidia-drivers in portage arent the same on nvidia.com
<3> emerge -C nvidia glx
<0> and if rivafb is on in kernel it wont install.. but i guess he will see
<1> portage can be couple weeks behind
<4> Dr-Lol: ....
<4> no
<2> should I also emerge -C nvidia-kernel ?
<3> yes kikr
<1> yes
<5> hey guys im in the section of the Gentoo installer thats called Extra packages. it has things like kde, gnome, gaim, and others. are these all necessary to get into a desktop gui after installation finishes? im guessing some are necessary under the X11 subheading...
<1> yes they are
<6> indeed
<1> even though gaim is just IM
<4> no theyre not
<4> all you need is xorg-x11
<6> youll want gnome or kde
<2> I have a wireless keyboard/mouse... should I wait until I get everything working before I try using the wireless?
<5> hmm
<1> kikr they should work out of the box
<1> except special keys
<2> so should I just detach my keyboard and mouse and hookup the wireless system right now?
<2> should I get X working first?
<5> im confused, all i need is xorg-x11 for a gui desktop? how about gnome? kde? whats the difference between kde or gnome?
<4> ytrewq: there are loads of different WMs you can choose from
<5> i see
<1> if USB, you may be able to
<4> theyre different window managers on top of Xorg
<1> if ps2 then wait till you reboot
<3> ytrewq: you need xorg first to use kde or gnome
<5> which do you all recommend best? kde or gnome?
<1> when emerging gnome, X is emerge as well automatically
<3> ytrewq: emerge both, and try them
<5> oh, so i dont need to check gnome
<6> i prefer kde but its just personal preference
<4> ytrewq: I would recommend KDE over gnome any day of the week, but you should test them yourself
<5> k thanx, i can uninstall one later right
<3> kde is WAY more costumizable
<1> whats that new desktop? i heard some things about it
<4> yep
<5> thanx guys
<4> Dr-Lol: ?

<1> http://xwinman.org/screenshots/enl-jackson.jpg
<6> I never used flux long enough to get it looking nice like that
<3> only think I like about gnome out of the box is the preview for video files..
<3> over kde
<3> the preview icon
<4> Ferty: ...like that?
<1> that newer enlightenment looks too much like macosx
<4> xfce > *
<4> end of story
<7> icewm forever
<3> :/
<4> nevar!
<3> omargard
<6> haha ill stick with kde for now
<3> like soul said, xfce is gnome without the bull****
<6> haha sounds kinda nice acually
<4> not really
<1> nextstep > * ;)
<3> well kinda
<4> only simularity is gtk+
<3> never said it ****
<4> heh
<3> but I do prefer kde
<3> kdebase is enough
<3> not the whole damn thing with 300 packages
<4> dude, if you use kde dont use kdebase :/
<4> use kde-meta :)
<3> sure I do
<6> i emerge kicker aswell
<3> kdebase-meta
<2> I have a dell 15" flatscreen... what type of hsync/ and resolution should I choose
<2> ?
<4> eh that one :)
<6> ohhh
<1> kikr shgouldnt matter
<1> not with lcd, only resolution
<6> a friend of mine did a kde-meta, haha i cant imagine how long that took
<2> there's 11 options
<3> damn irssi... still didnt started my new install !
<3> Ferty: its about 300 packages
<3> already tried it :/
<2> 31.5 - 79.0; Monitor that can do 1280x1024 @ 74 Hz
<6> thats mine^
<2> what type of monitor you have?
<6> well acualy it 27-79
<3> FatBox ~ # emerge kde-meta
<3> Calculating dependencies... done!
<3> >>> Emerging (1 of 315)
<6> lmao holy hell
<2> because I have no idea what to pick for a 15" dell flatscreen
<6> google the spec
<6> i have a NEC MultiSync 6FGp
<6> i just typed that in google and the specs i needed were in the second result
<2> mine is just "Dell" though
<6> hmm
<8> flatpanels don't have a hsync
<8> only a vsync of 60hz, normally
<1> 1024x768 for dell 15" flat panel
<8> lcd screens that is
<6> oh? i never knew that
<2> non-interlaced or high frequency ?
<6> my monitor probably weighs about as much a a standard office safe
<8> strictly speaking, they don't have a vsync either
<8> just a refresh rate
<2> 31.5 - 57.0; High Frequency SVGA, 1024x768 @ 70 Hz
<3> <=-- 19" crt :/
<2> how's that one look?
<6> 21" crt lol
<8> what did I just tell you?
<8> an LCD screen does not have an hsync value
<1> the values are ignored at the monitor
<3> Ferty: what brand
<6> NEC
<3> cool
