Comments:

<0> ;_;
<1> can some one tell me what needs to be in a portage overlay dir?
<2> squigly: nothing _needs_ to be in one.
<3> thank goodness, kde finished compiling, i had no idea it took that long
<4> #g is degrading down to the leave of #debian
<4> oops level
<5> odla: in what way?
<4> with the profanity
<1> blackace, what is this message about then /space/portage does not seem to have a valid PORTDIR structure.
<6> squigly: http://dev.gentoo.org/~genone/docs/overlay-howto.txt
<7> #debian ****ed anyway
<5> odla: i missed it. was it dealt with by an op? (I'm an op)
<8> odla: We deal with it in here
<5> indeed
<2> squigly: you specified an overlay in your make.conf...if you don't know what to put in one, don't specify one.
<1> blackace, yes, i ust saw this bit, make it readable by the portage group



<9> can anyone tell me why gentoo isn't recognizing my drives?
<10> which drivers vienessewaltzer?
<2> vienessewaltzer: well gentoo doesn't "recognize" drives, so that might be a start
<11> Bah.
<12> hozers: Your using 2 drives, hd0,0 and hd1,0 for your mirrored boot partitions?
<13> vienessewaltzer: default or standard kernel's are not compiled with ntfs support as far as i know
<14> i got a FX 5200 video card and i am wondering if anyone can point me in the direction of setting it up on gentoo?
<15> Laggy_Boombastic: yes i am.
<9> me_here_ how would i get NTFS support?
<16> npt: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/nvidia-guide.xml
<14> thanks GerbilSoft
<9> how am I supposed to get my Drives to work then?
<1> blackace, i have this overlay dir /space/portage and im trying to emerge /space/portage/media-gfx/maya
<14> GerbilSoft, will it make my X run faster?
<11> Anyone know if the Sempron 2300+ is a K7 or K8?
<1> blackace, i have this overlay dir /space/portage and im trying to emerge /space/portage/media-gfx/maya/maya7.0.1
<13> vienessewaltzer: you would have to bind a module if there's a module compiled in the standard kernel, which i suppose is not the case, the other way is to first configure a kernel and then build it, but this will require a gentoo installation
<3> i thought that to start kde, i needed exec startkde in my .xinitrc file, is that incorrect syntax?
<16> npt: It should.
<12> vienessewaltzer: Knoppix CD's support ntfs if I recall
<16> npt: Although if you're using the "nv" driver right now, you already have 2D acceleration - the "nvidia" driver adds 3D acceleration.
<2> squigly: read the link genone pasted you then.
<10> vienessewaltzer: first you have to know your hardware, next you could load modules what you need
<9> me_here_ how do you bind a module?
<2> squigly: hint: it should look more like /usr/portage
<14> i am using my onboard video at the moment
<9> well it's the one before SATA i don't remember the name
<9> it's slipping
<14> so i am hoping this 5200 will speed things up
<1> blackace, it does :/
<13> vienessewaltzer: so there's no easy way as i see, but maybe you have another distro, like debian, wich could have already modules build for ntfs i don't know i'm not sure
<6> squigly: what's the full path to your ebuild?
<1> genone, /space/portage/media-gfx/maya/maya7.0.1
<1> genone, /space/portage/media-gfx/maya/maya-7.0.1
<2> squigly: no it doesn't, and I won't spoon feed you, read his howto
<1> oops
<9> ok i guess i will try to get my kanotix cd again
<9> thanks
<17> hello
<6> squigly: ehm, it has to end in .ebuild ;)
<18> anyone using mutt?
<1> argh!
<19> I find myself at a stand still as I have a bug in my update
<13> vienessewaltzer: try modprobe ntfs or ntfs_rw or so
<17> for some reason, when I run the live CD, dhcp works, but when I run the install I just made, it doesn't
<20> anyone know how to enable hfsplus support in the kernel?
<9> me
<13> vienessewaltzer: then lsmod to see what modules are already loaded
<19> !!! ERROR: x11-libs/openmotif-2.2.3-r9 failed.
<19> !!! Function epatch, Line 207, Exitcode 0
<19> !!! Cannot find $EPATCH_SOURCE!
<9> is that a command for bash?
<9> me_here_ alright lemme write that down
<6> charles: you installed dhcpcd?
<17> yeah
<21> ig88b, under file systems in menuconfig
<22> charles: did you copy /etc/resolv.conf over from liveCD
<13> vienessewaltzer: yes as root! in bash
<17> yeah
<20> quadrata: it isn't there
<17> well let me check



<23> anyway, tomorrow I'll try the install without the network cord, hopefully forcing it to use the cd
<17> I could have
<17> I belive it
<17> I did*
<21> ig88b, did you look under 'misc file systems'?
<15> Laggy_Boombastic: i had win2k3 on the server before. I wonder if that did something to the MBR
<23> and I'll also make a copy of my /etc/apt dir for soures.lst or whatever
<20> yeah, there is an apple one
<6> charles: and you configured /etc/conf.d/net for dhcp?
<20> and I compiled that, and I have hfs
<20> but not hfsplus
<23> take care all
<17> yeah
<2> ig88b: there are two actually
<17> I have: config_eth0("dhcp")
<24> **** YOU MOREON ***HOLE
<6> charles: and eth0 exists?
<12> hozers: After you installed gentoo?
<8> ahem
<17> and dhcp_eth0("")
<13> tjah
<23> hey, he does have an amd64 CPU, and its the 32bit install CD .. that shouldn't matter though :P
<17> yeah
<15> Laggy_Boombastic: I had been running win2k3 before installing gentoo. It was using the same disks in a raid0 array from the bios. I erased that array in the bios then "tried" to installed gentoo.
<3> ok, when i run startx, the screen blanks, and then it goes back to shell returning an error of "exec: startkde not found"
<17> resolv.con has a namesevrer line
<23> and his ubuntu live cd is amd64 also
<12> charles: Did you emerge a dhcp client such as dhcpcd?
<17> yeah
<23> the knoppix I had him using is x86 though
<18> someone's got a grudge o.O
<17> yeah I ran emerge dhcpcd
<17> is that enough?
<5> nah it's just his fans :X
<6> charles: well, then I'm out of questions ;)
<20> lol, I'm blind :)
<17> yeah
<17> I am very confused
<22> charles: dhcpcd eth0 does not work , does it give an error?
<12> hozers: You've got me beat I think.
<17> well
<17> I have used this card before
<17> and I have the driver for it in the kernel
<4> i thought there was an acpi wiki somewhere
<17> when dhcpcd runs it just goes without responding for a while
<17> and then it fails
<22> does ifconfig show eth0
<15> Laggy_Boombastic: lol, I've got myself beat. I can usually figure it out reading the docs, but this is the first time I've really been stumped. Thanks for the help though. You answered many of the questions I had.
<25> I've emerged the gimp, but no help files are installed. I don't see any seperate packages for the gimp help, except for the gimp-user-manual, which isn't the online help. Any ideas what to do?
<17> ezerhoden: not the last time I booted
<17> and it works on the livecd
<17> I am using it now
<15> I'm going to reinstall and see if can get it working. I can't find where i went wrong. weird.
<2> blinkey: do you have doc in your USE?
<12> hozers: NP, for the most part, with a mirrored /boot you just set it up as a regular /boot and then it rolls to the next one if the first fails.
<22> then you do not have the correct module in the kernel selected
<17> the correct module?
<17> what should I have?
<25> blackace, I'm not sure but if it's default, then yes. No other programs lack help, so either that's a rarely used flag or isn't the issue.
<15> Laggy_Boombastic: yea, i have my grub.conf setup that way, but for some reason it doesn't even get to that option
<17> I have the 3com driver in it
<17> since it's a 3com card
<2> blinkey: well check...because if you don't have doc in your USE, gimp won't have gimp-help installed.
<22> as module or builtin?
<17> builtin
<20> hmmm, is there a way to mount hfsplus as rw?
<25> thanks, blackace.
<2> ig88b: yes, you should be able to mount it like any other fs
<13> ig88b: there is, it requires you to have rw support enabled for hfsplus in the kernel
<13> ig88b: most of the filesystems which are not native to linux have this in kernel config
<20> HFS+-fs warning: Filesystem was not cleanly unmounted, running fsck.hfsplus is recommended. mounting read-only.
<20> x
<20> er,, not that one
