<0> Kury: Does /boot/kernel-2.6.15-gentoo-r1 exist on /dev/hda1?
<1> arcin: Sure.
<2> ok changed mirrors and i still get and error saying "!!! couldn't download gtk+-2.6-smoothscrool=r5.patch. Aborting."
<3> arcin: linux 2.4 is like windows 98
<2> er -r5.patch
<4> farrioth: aparently not.. Alright.. Thanks (stupid error)
<0> psilikon: I'd expect that file to be called gtk+-2.6-smoothscrool-r5.patch. Ebuild mistake?
<0> Kury: np.
<5> psilikon: emerge --sync first
<3> LOL
<3> o_O
<6> on my USE variable
<6> Can i just add all the packages later
<6> ?
<3> can you be less clear
<4> any ideas /etc/init.d/net.eth0 start says "eth0 does not exist" ??



<7> Kury: ifconfig -a any results?
<4> loopback is all..
<6> for my USE variable for the compile
<6> what is the bare minimum i need?
<7> Kury: lspci | grep 'Eth'
<7> Kury: any results?
<8> damn
<3> arcin: you need nothing, there are defaults
<6> is there anything that would be recommended?
<4> kantlivelong: I don't seem to have an lspci...
<7> Kury: sec
<7> whats the package that gives lspci guys?
<9> pciutils
<4> installing..
<4> :(
<4> no d/l...
<7> doh lol
<7> Kury use the full cd to install
<4> I know what the nic is.. though
<7> Kury: o ok wat one is it
<4> Realtek 8201 LAN PHY Chip
<7> kk
<7> Kury: u manually compile ur kernel?
<4> yup
<7> Kury: enable realtek drivers then
<4> .. I have the RealTek RTL-8129/8130/8139 PCI........ but.. there isn't a specific 8201 realtek..
<7> Kury: wat kernel ver?
<4> its weird though.. because Its always came up working fine before..
<4> 2.6
<4> 2.6.15-gentoo-r1
<7> Kury: kk i have 2.6.13 but ill see what i can find
<10> Yikes! Cedega costs $55/year? Bad open source mojo. :(
<4> I just lost my system yesterday to a bad HD... and am having to rebuild the system :(
<7> Kury: Device Drivers -> Network device support -> Ethernet (10 or 100Mbit)
<2> thanks for the help everyone... bb;
<7> Kury: youll see your device there
<2> er l
<4> there..
<7> Kury: RealTek RTL-8129/8130/8139 PCI Fast Ethernet Adapter support
<4> w/ the 8201 number?
<4> ya.. thats the one I have compiled into the kernel already..
<7> Kury: make sure its not a module
<7> Kury: internal net or pci card?
<4> .. its built into my motherboard http://www.giga-byte.com/MotherBoard/Products/Products_Spec_GA-7N400%20Pro.htm
<7> Kury: ah i have the GA7-VT600 1394
<7> Kury: well did u install the kernel properly? copied it over? maybe a make clean will help?
<4> kantlivelong: should be.. its the only kernel to ever exist on this HD... as of 20 minutes ago... so..
<11> Can anyone recommend a nice, simple mail system or perhaps a tutorial for postfix that's actually somewhat readable?
<7> Kury: does the card show up in dmesg?
<4> I'll recompile really quick & try that..
<12> any pointers no alsa and sound?
<13> gcode, gentoo-wiki.org
<13> silence?
<13> for 3 minutes in #gentoo
<4> kantlivelong: same thing...
<13> the biggest channel on freenode?
<7> Kury: very odd
<4> do I need any of those sub packages under the realtek 21.. whatever it is?
<7> Kury: you shouldnt
<7> do u have other drivers w/ it that might conflict?



<14> ok, i've got a stupid n00b question is there a way to make an html file invisble???
<7> Kury: does the livecd detect it?
<15> mzbot gentoo alsa
<4> kantlivelong: ya
<7> Flyinprogramer: more descriptive?
<7> Kury: try another kernel version
<7> Kury: may sound old but 2.6.13 is what i use and that driver does work for me
<7> Kury: might be worth a shot
<4> .. I'm going to see what the live cd is using first..
<16> python seems pretty cool
<7> Kury: good idea
<14> ok, i've got a header.html file in a folder that can be accessed by ftp, and it keeps getting acedentally deleted by people deleting files from the ftp side, but if i could hide the file from appearing i could then keep it from appearing
<14> and i think i know the solution
<14> chmod
<14> chmod anything lower then 0755
<7> Flyinprogramer: most likely
<14> k
<14> second n00b question, when you use the cat command, what is it actually doing??
<7> Flyinprogramer: can be used for many things... output or input
<17> it concatenates
<7> enternal: well put
<14> cd is change directory, but what is cat?? like what is it doing?
<18> it's more like echo
<19> Flyinprogramer: reading a file, then printing it out
<20> cat is cancatination
<4> kantlivelong: lspci under the livecd says its a nVidia Corp nForce2 controler..
<14> ok...
<21> cat can be used to send a stream to stdout as well
<20> concatenate is the correct spelling...
<22> hey
<20> cat is useful for reading files
<7> Kury: then enable that
<20> or doing 'cat FILE1 FILE2 FILE3 > mergedFile'
<22> which version should i get? alpha amd64 hppa ppc (32 bit) sparc64 x86. im running a AMD
<17> AMD what?
<0> NabZ: x86
<20> NabZ: 64bt or 32bit?
<19> Flyinprogramer: cool think about *nix console is pipes and regexps, cat is the simplest way to get there
<22> 32bit
<20> NabZ: x86
<22> ty :)
<19> not think, thing...
<14> thanks
<22> last qustion. lol, whats the difference? unviersal cd. and package cd.
<0> NabZ: The package CD just contains a heap of packages.
<22> oo ok. ty
<22> so i need the universal to install linux on my pc?
<23> is there an easy command to have emerges's new config files auto-overwrite the old ones?
<23> I always move them by hand
<6> for my USE flags
<6> can i just leave them blank
<23> but I have like 20 to move this time
<6> and add them later with emerge?
<19> ssstormy: etc-update or better to use dispach-conf
<19> dispatch-conf*
<17> NabZ: if you're going to be using network, you're better off with the minimal
<24> what's the diff between dispatch-conf and etc-update? I know dispatch-conf is better, but why?
<17> 90MB vs 600MB, or whatever it is
<25> hi, I've an amd xp3000+, shoudl i download a stage3-athlonxp ... ?
<26> after upgrading to modular xorg, I seem to have lost a bunch of fonts -- anyone know if there are separate packages for the old default xorg fonts?
<19> GimmeFuel: it saves them, in a rcs repository, so you can recover them
<6> Can i just leave my USE flags blank and add them later with emerge?
<21> arcin: yes
<24> wide-eye: interesting, thanks
<18> wide-eye, i thought it had better support for knowing what to auto install? no?
<19> expresso: that could be true as well, but emerge does that stuff too, such as not installing the same conf file twice
<18> wide-eye, yeah, but emerge doesn't auto install a new config file you haven't edited.
<4> kantlivelong: it was the one labeled "Reverse Engineered nForce Ethernet support" forcedeth driver...
<25> hi, I've an amd xp3000+, shoudl i download a stage3-athlon-xp ... ?
<18> for instance, you've never changed /etc/init.d/sshd, but if you install a new openssh again, etc-update will want you to decide what to do with that
<19> expresso: and deleting (intentionally or not) the new one is considered "editing", cant get a new copy then, without messing in portage
<18> i _thought_ that dispatch-conf handled that situation better, but now that i think of it, maybe not.
<4> nat: pick a mirror.. http://www.gentoo.org/main/en/mirrors.xml
