<0> deertay: emerge -s gcc I suggest eix though
<1> Agathezol: ahh I think I see what the problem is...the permissions are broken in the first place. Most of the files in it are mode 700. This is a tgz I converted from rpm with alien, so it probably lost the permissions in the process
<2> suggest eix though?
<2> what is that
<3> It was the eventual end to my odyssee of migrating to xorg 7.0
<3> eix is way faster than emerge -s
<0> deertay: yes, use eix instad of emerge --search
<4> Death_Wish: The package you are trying to emerge specifies a URL to download the package contents from that is not resolving via DNS. What package is it?
<5> rabidfurby: that would do it...
<2> eix gcc?
<6> deertay: emerge eix && eix --help ;)
<7> xchat
<0> deertay: eix -e gcc yes, after uodate-eix
<0> update-eix
<7> and also gentoo-sources
<7> DrChandra: how do I fix that?



<0> Death_Wish: comment out GENTOO_MIRRORS variable
<7> oh in make.conf?
<0> yes
<0> or add a correct one
<8> I have created a local portage to install fontconfig.Now I want to emerge fontconfig from system portage.How to change the define of location?
<4> Death_Wish: The package URL resolves fine for me. I'm looking at the package in their directory.
<7> i just commented that line out but i still get it :S
<4> Death_Wish: Can you tell fromt he output which URL is not resolving?
<9> ok, i still can't resolve this damned 'error 22' grub is giving me
<7> every mirror
<0> greister: remove it from your overlay
<10> what do you guys think xine or mplayer?
<11> Is there a big difference between xorg-6.8.2 and xorg-7?
<12> i wanted to install manually sed, because i couldn't emerge it, now installation of sed needs sed itself, anyone knows a workaround?
<7> blmartin777: google :P
<4> Death_Wish: Can you ping www.gentoo.org by name?
<7> how do i ping cause when i do it never stop pinging
<13> Death_Wish: try ping --help
<12> ctrl+c
<9> can anyone tell me why grub refuses to install, when /boot/ is present, / is fine ?
<4> Death_Wish: use -c 1, or use Ctrl-C to stop it.
<8> LinuxBlues:I just remove the /usr/portage/Xx ,Can resolve the problem?
<7> DrChandra: unknown host
<0> Death_Wish: ping -c5 blah.com
<7> i get unknoen host
<4> ohgood: cd /boot ; ln -s . boot
<12> so nobody knowing a workaround?
<0> greister: no, I'm talking about your overlay, probably I misunderstood you, could you explain it better, please?
<4> ohgood: ... with boot mounted of course
<7> now it pings
<9> DrChandra: cannot overwrite directory
<7> it says 0 received 100% lost :S
<4> ohgood: You have a directory called /boot/boot?
<9> DrChandra: not anymore :)
<14> i have a problem with my synaptics touch pad... When i am actively using my dvd drive or actively using my pcmcia nic, the touchpad goes out of my control and does all kinds of wierd things.
<9> DrChandra: ok, still grub refuses to install
<14> anyone know how to fix this?
<4> ohgood: inside boot, there should be a symlink which points at ".".
<9> DrChandra: it is now
<4> ohgood: What does it say when it refuses?
<9> DrChandra: Could not find device for /boot: Not found or not a block device.
<4> ohgood: Where are yyou telling grub about "/boot"
<9> DrChandra: nothing, i'm issung 'grub-install /dev/hda'
<14> anyone had something similar hppen?
<14> happen
<4> ohgood: Is /boot mentioned in your /boot/grub/grub.conf?
<9> DrChandra: no
<15> Hi, I'm trying to mount my usbstick, but I only get errors back
<16> DrChandra: you have floppydrive?
<17> - ?
<18> all righty then
<19> I'm in the middle of installing something with 2 disks with winex - how can I force the umount of my cdrom without breaking everything?
<0> denic: why do you think this is a test channel?
<17> Kto govorit po russki?

<19> nyet
<20> i cannot access a 2nd drive, after I forgot to umount before reboot - anyone know how can fix
<0> mzbot: Gentoo denic irc.xml
<21> denic: http://www.gentoo.org/main/en/irc.xml
<19> what FS is it zaggy_nl
<15> jimferd, euhm I'm not sure actually, want me to plug it into a windows pc?



<19> Yes, please do
<15> Jimferd, okay, hang on
<19> It's basically saying "oh hay this isn't fat... oh hay it isn't NTFS either"
<22> zaggy_nl, It might be that it should be /dev/sdb1
<23> Is there a good place to find info about setting up an initramfs image?
<0> peterjk: define "cannot access" depending on the filesystem used, errors=remount-ro is probably used
<22> zaggy_nl, Tried file -s /dev/sdb ?
<19> So any guesses on my multi-cd problem?
<15> Jimferd, the filesystem is FAT32
<23> I'm considering EVMS on Gentoo, and found a howto that says to use an initramfs image, but unfortunately doesn't say how to make on.
<15> "mount -t vfat /dev/sdb1 /mnt/usbstick" worked :)
<22> zaggy_nl, Good.
<22> zaggy_nl, Yod did /dev/sdb before?
<24> i can't find anywhere on the website for md5sums for the livecd?
<20> linuxblues: cannot even access for backup purpose, i.e. tried to fdisk, and create file system - NO LUCK
<15> AnMaster, nope
<22> gtg
<9> DrChandra: You were correct, the only problem was the link in /boot/.. apparently i foo'd it when i was re-partitioning lastnight
<0> peterjk: dmesg messages?
<9> DrChandra: Thanks. :)
<20> LB: will do that now - hang on
<24> anyone know where the md5sums are on the website?
<20> LB: Will that info be in /var/log
<19> So, not to be nagging and annoying, but: I'm in the middle of installing something with 2 disks with winex - how can I force the umount of my cdrom without breaking everything?
<0> peterjk: just type dmesg
<20> LB: ok here goes
<0> peterjk: /var/log/dmesg contains it too
<0> peterjk: use a pastebin, plz!!
<15> how to mount my usbstick for user zaggy ?
<15> "mount -t vfat /dev/sdb1 /mnt/usbstick uid=zaggy" won't work :(
<20> LB: Lods of stuff with dmesg about other probs - could I ask you to look at it please - and help solve any probs - i'm very much a newbie user of linux, but I have to say happy with it
<25> What is the correct way of setting font resolution ?
<0> peterjk: paste it at rafb.net/paste
<20> LB: Not sure how to paste it in
<26> Hello! xsupplicant with rt2500. Anyone have this working?
<0> peterjk: wait a second, I'm searching a pastebin that allow to paste dm.txt file (dmesg > dm.txt )
<0> s/paste/upload
<2> are xorg and XFree86 the same thing?
<20> LB: i have pasted it - cheers for this m8
<0> peterjk: http://phpfi.com/ allows to upload 100kb files ;-)
<27> deertay: xorg is a fork of XFree86
<27> deertay: they do the same thing
<28> what tool/script/program do you recommend to manage iptables?
<27> deertay: most people now would say that xorg is a bit better
<27> deertay: and it any case it's the Gentoo default
<2> yeah...but i am used to XFree86 i think
<8> LinuxBlues:Why the portage system know my fontconfig is in my overlay portage.How change it?
<27> deertay: it's not hard to switch
<27> deertay: you can jsut rename your XF86Config file to xorg.conf
<27> deertay: you probably won't even need to edit it
<0> greister: PORTDIR_OVERLAY variable in make.conf
<2> ok...i think that may explain why i have been so confused
<14> anyone have a solution to my problem? im thinking rm -rf / and loading another os
<29> cereion_: yeah windows
<29> ;(
<0> Backis: probably shorewall, firestarter is a gui and easier
<30> god dammit
<2> oh...and i have been using export XSESSION to get startx to load kde...how do i change that variable permanently...and how to edit rc.conf and init to load at start up
<30> when I switch my timezone from uct to est it bumps the time down 5 hours
<20> lb: have done that, on phpfi.com
<14> nah, not windows
<30> but before the switch the time is correct
<0> cereion_: rm -rf / autodestroys itself whenever rm reaches its own process in /proc ;-)
<14> maybe solaris or bsd
<30> any way to fix this without using date?
<14> hehe
<29> cereion_: try SuSE
<28> LinuxBlues: thanks, ill look in to those two
<8> LinuxBlues:I mean my fontconfig package installed used by my overlay porage tree.Now I want to install fontconfig package from system portage tree.How to change it ?
<31> cereion_: i can't find your problem in my buffer, care to elaborate?
<32> how can I set my network startup (which uses dhcp) to time out after not being able to get DHCP after a while and set up a static addy?
<0> Backis: there's a nice tutorial about shorewall in the forums
<14> ant linux has the same problem, not sure of bas yet
