<0> 'Night
<1> night
<2> okay i emerged mysql 5 . know i want to install a software which is not in the portage tree it's name is "zenoss"
<2> codyzapp: okay night
<1> im not going to bed. i was telling afterphasma night lol
<3> moin
<2> codyzapp: o i c
<1> this morning is gentoo install morning
<2> fek: how was night
<4> hi
<2> Gnodab: hi
<4> Is it possible to restore deleted partitions ?
<2> Gnodab: yeah
<2> Gnodab: but i don't know how to .. lol
<5> Gnodab, Primary partions are easier than logical ones
<5> Gnodab, What did you do ?



<4> NeddySeagoon, its a logical partition ... its my /home partition
<4> NeddySeagoon, I installed Windows XP yesterday, deleted the windows partition (first one) and reformated it
<5> Gnodab, Get testdisk - it will scan your drive for possible partitions
<5> Gnodab, if you have reused the space - its gone for good
<6> hi,i've a problem with utf-8 on console,my keymap works (latin5) however, if i type i.e. "user@host $_" and delete _, it deletes $ sign too, if i do this 3-4 times,it becomes "user@h"
<4> NeddySeagoon, the deleted partition is the sixed one
<4> NeddySeagoon, now its free space :(
<7> Gnodab: why did you delete it?
<8> anyone knows how to add XMMS to the default player?
<4> the windows installer made the part. table corrupt
<6> i mean, to delete _,i have to backspace 2 times :\
<5> Gnodab, pastebin the output of fdisk -l /dev/....
<4> dystopianray, fdisk showed me 60 partitions, all the same size as sda5 .... my root partition
<4> NeddySeagoon, im in windows right now ...
<4> then I quited fdisk with "w" to write ... and sda6 (my /home) was gone
<7> Gnodab: are you sure that windows didn't overwrite the whole driver when it wrecked the partition table?
<5> Gnodab, if your missing partiton occupies all the unpartioned space, recover is easy, you use fdisk to add a new partition and take the defualt start and end. It will get a new partiton number
<7> Gnodab: the whole drive i mean
<5> Gnodab, If you are not sure - use testdisk to locate possible partitions
<5> Gnodab, With logical partions, you must get it right first time
<4> NeddySeagoon, ok, i will try testdisk...right now im scanning with recover tools for extfs under windows, but they dont find that partition ...
<1> is it best to grab the stage tarball from the internet or use the one on the cd?
<7> codyzapp: they should be the same
<1> oh okay
<4> hm, on ntfs its easier to recover lost data ....
<1> what about kernel? vanilla sources? or the 2.6 kernel?
<0> Gentoo latest
<5> codyzapp, They are both 2.6 ... gentoo-sources
<1> ah ok
<0> Is there any way to get directfb working with the nVIDIA drivers?
<7> codyzapp: gentoo-sources
<1> yes thankyou lol
<5> Twey_, Thats a contradiction.
<1> im looking for the closest place on the timezone chart
<9> codyzapp, thou shalt not useth the 2.4 kernel
<0> NeddySeagoon: Not using the nVIDIA drivers... just coexisting happily. :-)
<10> Twey_, as in framebuffer ? u can use Vesa driver i believe other ones dont like nvidia driver & vice versa
<1> Awesome-02000, im not.
<0> Hmmm... thanks, hollowsoul.
<9> codyzapp, right on - its too old
<11> anybody here use xorg and nvidia driver with firefox and it doesnt render correctly?
<1> yupp :P
<5> Twey_, vesa-tng is faster if its available for your arch
<0> NeddySeagoon: Alas, it's not
<5> Twey_, vesa it is then :(
<10> hillster, emerge -pv xorg-server u got 1.1 ?
<0> NeddySeagoon: vesa makes my console fonts look ugly :-(
<5> Twey_, Choose some other console fonts
<9> this is going to rock, im going to put gentoo on the old laptop I get, all I want is an mp3 player and wireless capability on it
<11> hollowsoul: 1.1.0
<0> NeddySeagoon: Yeah, I guess. Where are they all stored?
<1> i like cybercafe fonts lol
<5> Twey_, In the kernel ... where it askes about embedded fonts
<0> Oh -- found them.
<0> :-)
<0> NeddySeagoon: How do I choose a different one?
<10> hillster, u know how to mask packages ? i.e /etc/portage/package.mask u will need something like http://pastebin.ca/64204 change the x11-drivers/<foo> to the ones u got installed
<7> Twey_: /usr/share/consolefonts/
<9> its basically just going to be a wireless console laptop to play streaming mp3's from the server and maybe do some bitchx
<11> hollowsoul: every app is ok so its weird
<9> its gonna take a week to do a stage3



<10> hillster, xorg-server-1.1.0 changed driver abi thus broke nvidia / ati drivers. basicly stuck with xorg 7.0 till nvidia / ati update thier drivers
<5> Twey_, I think the kernel chooses the 'best fit' depending on the console resolution
<0> Awesome-o2000: A week?! Took my P3 laptop two days
<7> Awesome-o2000: build it on a faster system and just move the hdd into the laptop
<9> Twey_, its a 266mmx
<0> NeddySeagoon: Ah, I see. That's good. :-)
<0> Awesome-o2000: Nice :-D
<11> hollowsoul: so your saying nvidia doesnt work with 7.1 xorg?
<0> hillster: That's right.
<0> Run a 3D app and X will crash.
<10> hillster, yep doesnt render fonts for example properly u need to use xorg 7.0
<7> hillster: x.org 7.1 changed the ABI so binary drivers are no longer compatible
<9> dystopianray, THATS not a bad idea - I dont think that would take long either, I could build the install and dd it over using a livecd
<5> Awesome-o2000, nfs share the laptop root to another PC. Then you can share /usr/portage too
<7> Awesome-o2000: yep should work fine
<9> build it on the HT box
<11> dystopianray: stuff this im going back to ATI
<11> what a pain in the butt
<9> and I swear - anyone who says HT doesnt make a difference has never compiled
<10> hillster, u use the example of package,mask i gave u & change the x11-drivers to ones u got . and then type emerge -DNuav xorg-x11 should downgrade it for u
<7> hillster: ATI doesn't work either
<9> you NOTICE ht in gentoo
<11> it does if you use the stock xorg drivers
<0> Lol
<11> no 3d but i dont need it :)
<7> hillster: just use nv if you don't wnat 3d
<9> im using the nvidia drivers
<11> ohh can u do that?
<9> works just fine
<7> hillster: wait for the 9xxx nvidia driver series for x.org 7.1 compatbility
<7> hillster: of course
<9> ahhh 7.1 my apologies
<12> nv is fine, VESA also works
<11> ohh ok ill brb then :)
<11> vesa REALLLLLLU SLOW
<12> yeah
<11> i used it for 5 mins
<4> @NeddySeagoon| Gnodab, if your missing partiton occupies all the unpartioned space, recover is easy, you use fdisk to add a new partition and take the defualt start and end. It will get a new partiton number
<7> hillster: or just mask X.org 7.1, it's only about 6 packages or so
<4> NeddySeagoon, and then ?
<11> and its like moving round in a waterbowl lol
<9> im just going to ***ume 7.1 for nvidia issues from now on - HOWEVER - I had nvidia working in 7.1 as well, and in XGL
<11> thanks guys brb
<9> or maybe it was 7.0
<5> Gnodab, You just mount it ... , fix /etc/fstab and it alll works
<7> Awesome-o2000: probalby 7.0
<9> you know while I love the ease and stability of centos, their stock kernels are the pits.
<10> Awesome-o2000, i believe u can get lucky depending on what type of fonts u are using. but even nvidia says on there forums drivers = broke :P
<9> hollowsoul, yeah for xorg 7 it may be a bummer for some, I got it working but I did do a bunch of font stuff
<4> NeddySeagoon, sounds simple, but what to do if it doesnt ?
<9> a TON of font stuff, its part of the xgl howto
<0> It's not just the fonts
<0> X crashes when you try to do certain things
<9> I tell you though - when theres full 3d for nvidia and xgl im going to be a very, very happy camper.
<0> When there's full 3D built into nv, I'll be even happier. :-)
<9> I got 3d in the desktop but not in apps - but thats a known thing, they're working on it
<0> AIGLX would be nice too.
<9> Twey_, it'll never, ever happen.
<0> Awesome-o2000: Using Xgl? I got it working
<7> Awesome-o2000: it might
<5> Gnodab, Run testdisk first - Creating logical partiions involves a write to the partition. Its essential that the start block is in the right place, so it overwrites the one thats already there, thus recovering your data
<9> Twey_, I got 3d in Xgl in the desktop
<0> Quake played fairly nicely if I killed copiz
<0> compiz**
<9> the cube and effects all worked, but no DRI in apps
<0> That ****s.
<0> :-P
<9> yeah compiz is a part of thangs and there was something odd in glxinfo with it
<7> Awesome-o2000: http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/ open source nvidia dri project
<5> Gnodab, IF you have space, you can back up the unpartitioned area with dd
<9> well, when mine works fine, ill be migrating full time to Xgl - ive got a 6800gs with 512 onboard
<13> is there a more up-to-date guide about compiling kernel for Gentoo?
