Comments:
<0> will try and emerge that and see what happens
<1> solv; like you I switch from Fedora FC4
<2> drbombay43, does up2date work in FC finally?
<3> ive used every distro under the sun
<1> no crashes
<2> Kovecses, redflag?
<3> up2date is depreciated
<4> dli: now it shows the mouse and kind of shows the X server window, but my monitor still has an "out of range" sign on it
<1> yumextender
<4> dli: and the mouse works
<2> drbombay43, my impression of redhat is from the python codes I saw with up2date
<0> dli up2date sux...so does yum extender
<1> solv; so true
<0> the only thing that was good was apt-get, but that is deprecated for yum...bah
<2> signature16, I suppose you read Xorg.0.log
<0> i think smart is being developed and may prove to be better than yum and apt put together...haven't kept up with it though
<4> dli: kinda...i cant make sense of it. what hsould i look for?
<2> signature16, which mode it chooses, which it doesn't
<4> dli: k
<1> can anyone tell me how large my /usr partition should be if I have also created seperate local src and portage partitions
<2> drbombay43, any particular reason to separate them?
<5> drbombay43: why do you want a separate /usr/src partition?
<3> i love radio
<1> I tend to use alot of diffrent kernels
<3> and?
<6> drbombay43: and that means you need a separate partition for them?
<1> and just trying to use up the hd space
<6> just make /usr big enough to do whatever you want to do with it
<7> Okay
<7> I have a major problem
<7> Loading gentoo: EBDA is big; kernel setup stack overlaps LILo second stage
<4> dli: it says Fatal: module i915 not found Failed to load kernel module "i915"
<7> Does ANYONE have any idea what taht means, or how to fix it?
<6> Excelsior: sorry, haven't used lilo in over 5 years
<2> signature16, what video driver are you using?
<4> dli: vesa or som ething like that
<1> Garibaldi; when reading the gentoo install manual it metion creating seperate partition just for portage and ccache
<1> /usr/portage & /var/ccache
<6> drbombay43: so?
<2> signature16, what "X -configure" found?
<6> you see, /usr/portage make sense, because you might consider running reiserfs on that
<8> morning...
<7> Garibaldi: I only used lilo due to grub having a make error :|
<1> why would they mention it if it was not a good idea?
<2> Garibaldi, or reiser4 :)
<6> since it performs well with small files, and that way you don't risk the rest of your valuable data
<4> dli: yes
<6> dli: yeah, I might consider reiser4 for /usr/portage
<2> signature16, which one?
<4> dli: ahh how can i tell? will it say in xorg.conf? if so under which category?
<2> signature16, okay, sounds gentoo is not your distro, try ubuntu
<4> dli: what?
<3> Ubuntu
<4> i want to learn gentoo
<1> not fair it ****s
<2> signature16, you didn't even go over your xorg config file line by line, and have wasted time of people who tried to help you
<9> My Konsole keeps locking up when i type
<1> signature16; you stick to your guns, Ubuntu ****s, just go Debian
<9> the system is not under any load infact its locked up right now. iv tried recompiling.. with no luck
<3> debian is cool ... with backports of course
<4> dli: uhh sorry? i havent been using linux for very long so i dont know all these things
<9> Kovecses: yes it is
<9> Kovecses: easyer to admin
<2> k31th, just use another terminal :)
<10> what's the ebuild for ut2004 server?
<9> yeah i guess
<3> rake, emerge search ut2004
<11> games-server/ut2004-ded
<2> Garibaldi, the power of reiser4 ( 160M /usr/portage/), while on reiserfs (485M /usr/portage/)
<10> D1A, thanks
<12> dli: smart tail packing?
<12> dli: or is that a module?
<2> FieldySnuts, yes, qsize also shows difference
<12> dli: ah. I have reiser4 on all but two partitions on my desktop but that system is off.
<13> hello
<2> FieldySnuts, no, I didn't play with any fancy reiser4 plugin, just reiser4, that's it
<12> dli: what kernel are you running? i've been having some nasty problems with 2.6.16-rc5 mm's
<2> FieldySnuts, I stick to 2.6.15.1 (a patch from namesys is available), instead of mm-sources
<12> dli: ah. I may go that route, the past few mm kernels have given me major problems. .16-rc5-mm3 doesn't even boot, just restarts itself immediately after grub.
<7> Awesome.
<2> FieldySnuts, the most amazing thing is how fast it is to run "du -sh /usr/portage" on reiser4, times faster than on reiserfs
<7> It finally works again
<7> Now I need to try to use DHCP
<7> >_> Whichj I haven't in years.
<3> mm kernels?
<12> dli: yeah I know. I hope it gets into vanilla, but I am worried about that, due to hans reisers' lame attitude on the LKML
<12> dli: he's managed to annoy quite a few of the devs.
<1> FieldySnuts; you might also try cheater-conrad no-sources 2.6.16-rc5-no1
<12> hadn't heard of that one. but i have spent way too much time goofing with weird patches and what not, getting old
<2> FieldySnuts, I heard the story, but the code is GPLed, if someone hate Mr. reiser, he can still take the code, or even rewrite from scratch
<1> FieldySnuts; find them in the forums
<1> cheater-conrad
<14> FieldySnuts: mm-sources are not that good, but archck sources are.
<3> i like gentoo-sources
<14> FieldySnuts: (judged by how often they work on an amd64 or athlon-xp) archck isn't in the official tree, though
<12> Radtoo_: mm is usually okay, but it is so very bleeding edge that you can expect major breakage rather frequently. it can be fun, but it gets annoying. i'm only interested in reiser4 anyway, i will probably just patch vanilla.
<12> that's okay I manage my own kernels anyway
<1> Radtoo; can you set nicscheld in archck?
<1> Radtoo; the reason I asked is because I was told that you could not
<14> drbombay43: not sure...
<12> i find cfq works nice pretty much anywhere, especially smp systems
<15> can anyone here help me with valknut?
<16> Anyone know how to remove "foo" from the session menu in GDM?
<14> drbombay43: is it a hdd scheduler or something nic related? :D
<15> stuff just sits in the download queue and says "idle/2", but i can upload just fine (in valknut)
<2> SPAMM3R, remove the session itself :)
<16> dli I tried, but there's no *.desktop for this
<1> Radtoo; yes
<2> SPAMM3R, remove the package
<13> has anyone here successfully set up an Intel 2915ABG adapter with the IPW2200 driver?
<12> mtylerb: yes, using it now
<16> dli : ah /me scratches head, i don't believe "foo" is a package, nor a session...
<17> Did I hear that gentoo has a new interface to portage?
<13> FieldySnuts really? I'm having major problems with it...
<2> mtylerb, what do you mean?
<2> mtylerb, 2915 is officially ipw2200
<17> as in is there a GUI for portage now?
<12> mtylerb: other than following the instructions from the dependancy ieee80211 to edit the kernel (has you run a shell script), i was okay. generally emerge ieee80211 ipw2200 is what you need to do, after modprobe -rav ipw2200 (and the other related modules) first
<1> FieldySnuts; http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-436316-highlight-conrad.html
<16> TimeZer0 porthole?
<18> TimeZer0: there are many, http://packages.gentoo.org/packages/?category=app-portage
<12> TimeZer0: not an official one. portage is easy to use anyway.
<13> dli: to start I'm fairly new to Linux but I'm picking it up quickly. I did the emerge ipw2200, but neither ifconfig and iwconfig sees the adapter...
<12> drbombay43: thanks but I am not actually interested in any other sources for now
<19> did you modprobe it
<14> TimeZer0: there is a gentoo installer now for the first time setup... the other gui things mostly aren't new though.
<12> mtylerb: modprobe -v ipw2200 , then try ifconfig -a it should show up (no ip yet)
<2> mtylerb, follow FieldySnuts' words, first, "emerge -C ipw2200" to remove the package
<17> Radtoo: ah that must be what I heard. So it is a GUI installer?
<20> how do i start the gui installer?
<12> actually I didn't say a thing about unmerging ipw220
<14> TimeZer0: For first time installations, yes...
<13> dli: i did but I get an unknown... something.. sorry, drawing a blank all of a sudden...
<12> anyway i got stuff to do
<20> how do you start it?
<14> TimeZer0: The Portage frontends like Kuroo or Porthole did exist for a longer while now, though.
<17> Anybody know why 'emerge --sync' takes sooooo long after the transfer has completed?
<13> dli,FieldySnuts: I tried unmerging ipw2200 thinking a fresh install would help... but i'll go and try emerging ieee80211 and then modprobe -rav ipw2200...
<20> hi im new i herd gentoo has gui installer how would i go about to start it?
<17> radtoo_: thanks, just having a look at porthole now
<13> thanks dli and fieldysnuts, i'll give that a try...
<20> no the otherway
<21> GenBot hep
<2> mtylerb, on livecd? chroot? emerge -u ipw2200-firmware, and buidl your kernel with the ipw2200 driver
<21> GenBot help
<21> hmm
<20> !help
