Comments:
<0> Xintruder, * jimmyekl has quit ("reboot, and yeah its needed...")
<1> SimAtWork: possibly... I also did some reading into the possibility of an arg that would revert it to its older behavior... I came accros i8042.acpi which has fixed a couple similar issues for people with it, but for me it hasn't given me any luck
<2> I'm installing form the new livecd (which is nice), but my internet connection died whlie emerging packages... is there a way to resume? it just sas "Install Failed!"
<0> seeKay, get net running and emerge --resume
<3> seeKay, emerge --resume
<4> PhaseBurn: now that i think abut it, i had a similiar problem with this pc i'm using now... without a kvm though.... howver. I just got a usb kb and never looked back.
<4> PhaseBurn: of course, this douesn't help you solve your problem at all.
<2> will that work with the graphical installer?
<5> _AxS_, im trying to not get resolv.conf over written at reboot, alothough having my dchp up.
<5> HelpingMonkey, sounds cool =/
<1> SimAtWork: yea, I have a thing against USB keyboards, and USB KVMs are a little expensive :-/
<6> Xintruder: yeah i think you can specify something to do that... got a howto or documentation on /etc/conf.d/net ?
<2> seren, kojiro I'm using the graphical installer... do I need to chroot first?
<7> Which package should I emerge to install a PS2 emulator?
<8> anyone ever done the setup where you have a dual head video card, pluged in an extra mouse and keyboard and and ran a mainframe style GUI terminal setup with 2 terminals on a single box?
<9> bye
<0> if your not chrooted yes
<1> SimAtWork: maybe that's what I need... a PS2 emulator :-P
<6> njsg: emerge --search playstation
<10> Hi everyone!
<3> seeKay, umm, yeah, I dunno if it'll work, but yeah, you'd need to mount, chroot, etc before emerge --resume
<8> WITH OUT, running 3 Xwindows sessions., but one X server?
<4> PhaseBurn: actually!
<4> PhaseBurn: i have this handy dandy device that'll take a ps2 mouse and kb and turn them into usb
<4> PhaseBurn: that might be exactly what you need.
<4> PhaseBurn: it was $2.50
<6> New0rder: no i think you need one xwindows session/server per keyboard/mouse combo
<4> PhaseBurn: there is no brand name on it though
<4> so i dunno where to tell you to get one.
<11> hi
<0> ps/2 to usb converter
<6> New0rder: there's a howto for doing that, i ran across it about a year ago...
<0> try privewatch
<8> _AxS_, yeah, that woudl be easy, but I think there is a company that has a modified X server that will run a few monitors.
<3> seren, pricewatch?
<0> www.pricewatch.com
<4> New0rder: i've never done it but it's easy enough to do with ems
<4> err evms
<4> although I think you need a diff video card per monitor.
<6> New0rder: you can set up one keyboard/mouse set to use multiple monitors, but i don't think you can have two sets of keyboards use the same X server
<0> http://castle.pricewatch.com/s/search.asp?s=ps%2F2+usb+converter
<1> SimAtWork: you ***ume this box has USB, which would be incorrect
<4> errr
<4> NOT EVMS
<4> PhaseBurn: ouch!
<1> SimAtWork: the other 2 do, this one, however... let me just say the HD that failed was a 17.2 gig from '99
<6> PhaseBurn: what does the box have?
<4> oh no, i forget the name of the keyboard split thing.
<6> a computer from '99 didn't have usb? mine from '97 had usb..
<1> SimAtWork: I have a dongle similar to that at work somewhere, but it won't work on this one box
<1> _AxS_: this one doesn't, and the HD didn't come with it
<12> my packard bell has USB, it's on the modem, but WHO CARES?!
<1> it's a P2 Celeron 400a
<7> _AxS_, using that to search "ps" and grepping "games", i get a list of plugins for a ps2 emulator, but I cant find the emulator in the list, only the plugins...
<4> anyone remember what the name of that driver is that lets you treat each usb keyboard as a seperate one?
<8> _AxS_, Being the only linux geek here, it won't happen... I think the java team coudl benifit from a bad *** linux box with a few AMD64 CPU' and a bunch of ram, but they wouldn't need it all the time but when compiling their m***ive .ear files.
<0> how do you make /etc/conf.d/net invoke dhcpcd with -R switch?
<2> does anyone know what the graphical installer program does after emerging all the packages? just reboot? my installer died so i have to emerge --resume
<0> seeKay, hmmm
<8> _AxS_, But it would be idle enought ot be a 2 way workstation....... each workstation with 2 monitors.
<6> New0rder: yeah you could do that i'm sure...
<8> _AxS_, On the mulitple monitor deal, I have a tripple head setup currently, I know that works.
<4> NewOrder: http://www.busam.com/redhat9/xfree.html
<6> New0rder: you just wouldn't be able to toss applications back and forth from one virtual X system to the other
<6> although that would be cool...
<4> _AxS_: xmove !
<8> _AxS_, true, how cool would that be tho... "hey, look at this page, and user A, drags it over to user B's desktop. Kinda like on the tv show 24
<4> PhaseBurn: anyhow, usb would be a hardware fix to a software issue i guess.
<6> yeah.. Here, i gotta take a break, work on this for me... [drag..][plop!]
<4> PhaseBurn: but you can always get a pci usb port.
<6> PhaseBurn: what's the original issue? i missed it...
<1> SimAtWork: yea, but it won't solve the issue on my other 2 boxes, either
<8> wow, it's nice to have a new mouse with buttons that click.
<1> _AxS_: I have a 4 port KVM, all PS/2, and kernels newer than 2.6.14 render my keyboard inoperable - but they still work in bios
<8> this new logitech one doesn't even have a visiable red light
<8> it's not laser either
<3> well, if seeKay comes back, someone point him to http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/releng/installer/faq.xml
<1> _AxS_: older kernels function with no problem, no changes
<3> (please)
<13> hi gals, hi dudes : )
<4> PhaseBurn: lol. well.. you could always get three of them.
<4> PhaseBurn: i mean, that's animmidate fix. it still doesn't get to the root of the problem.
<13> you guys, how do i watch tv on gnu/linux? or, what is the best tv tuner and the most compatible with gnu/linux?
<4> PhaseBurn: can you try merging the two kernels?
<1> SimAtWork: the other 2 boxes support USB... so I'd just need a dongle :-)
<13> best brand at least : ) thankyou! : )
<1> SimAtWork: I can try, but my C skills is much like my *** life: old and infrequently used :-/
<1> SimAtWork: chances are I'd botch something up
<4> PhaseBurn: cp from you 2.6.13 kernel the /drivers/input/serio to the 2.6.16 kernel and see if it works?
<1> SimAtWork: will try it when I get home though
<4> PhaseBurn: or just the driver that effects the kb (i8042?)
<6> PhaseBurn: Hmmm.. that's about when the input core changed...
<4> i'm not even sure which one handles the kb.
<6> its older hardware -- do you need a kernel newer than 2.6.13?
<1> _AxS_: I know... I've done my homework on the serio rewrite (i8042.acpi=1 fails to correct my problem, etc)
<14> ok, I graduated from KDE to enlightenment, any cool tricks you can tell me?
<1> _AxS_: it's not this specific hardware that bothers me. I'm replacing the whole box in a few weeks, and I'm having this problem on my other 2 systems as well... one of which is a brand new Athlon 64
<4> daniel_w: terminal, run konqueror :)
<14> i am running e16 0.16.8
<14> SimAtWork: hehe
<1> _AxS_: while I could run older on this one box, I'd like to have it solved across the whole platform, for obvious reasons
<14> SimAtWork: I got too used to the kioslaves...
<4> daniel_w: yah!
<15> yo
<14> I instinctively hit alt-f2 and my second desktop pops up
<14> i need a run dialog, heh
<6> PhaseBurn: hmm.. what kind of a switch is it? software KVM or hardware (ie, mechanically switched) KVM?
<1> _AxS_: software switched
<6> ..odd, so it shouldn't be a power/signal issue then...
<1> _AxS_: yea, and it works fine on other OSes too, not that it's been overly tested
<16> brianw: Hey there. Just wanted to let you know that you were right. Network Address Translation wasn't as difficult to deal with as I thought, and in fact it turned out to be much easier to set up than rearranging the kernel's routing tables. Thanks. :)
<16> brianw: If you aren't available now then I'll catch you later. Just thought I'd keep you up to date.
<16> brianw: Oh. And thanks again for the help.
<17> any one using rr4 ?
<18> What's the proper way to check whether a dependency was built with a certain use flag active in an ebuild? (specifically, whether sdl-image was built with the png USE flag)
<19> deitarion: proper way to check..where..?
<1> deitarion: I just use emerge -pv <package> and see what the signs say...
<1> deitarion: if it's red, it was built with it (***uming of course it's installed), if it's blue it wasn't, and if its green it's changed from what it would build with
<18> antarus: Thanks. Let me just check which ecl*** provides that.
<20> deitarion, equery u sdl-image
<21> gentoo wiki down?
<18> PhaseBurn: No, I'm writing an ebuild that requires a copy of SDL-image with PNG support.
<1> ahh, misunderstood, sorry
<19> deitarion: eutils I think ;)
<22> hi, does anyone get errors like "udev_mknod_error" about some ttyS0 "file exists" during boot time? I have them but i'm not sure what causes them
<23> Agathezol, marienz thanks, just got back,
<14> !seen brianw
<24> brianw (n=brianw@gentoo/user/brianw) was last seen joining #gentoo-laptop 19 hours, 12 minutes ago. brianw is still on #gentoo-laptop.
<18> antarus: Thanks. That's it.
<25> PartitionMagic8 can covert NTFS to fat and its it as I type this
<25> really fast t00
<26> are there any e17 users in here?
<27> whenever i boot up i get: some file in /etc/{init.d,conf.d} have modification time in the future
<28> when i try to start my network it brings the interface down. thus my router light goes off and so... it began after i was fiddling around with my wireless card. any help on this would be nice =)
<8> on a mouse, the scrool wheel is the Z axis.. what's the left to right scroll axis?
<25> good question
<28> x y
<6> you mean if the scroll button moves left-right? i think its w
<6> but i dunno if that's actually supported in X yet
<8> Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
<8> that's the scroll
<28> it would be if you using evdev
<28> New0rder: you have a mouse with tilt on the wheel?
<6> jimmyekl: getting the signal from the mouse, sure, but what do you map it _to_ ?
<8> yep
<25> lucky
<28> well it would be a button then =) like mouse1 mouse2 and so on
<29> how can i create my own portage snapshot?
<6> i wonder, is it posible to hook up an old joystick and set that up to do scroll?
