<0> oh
<0> i thinkt hat's it actually
<0> 3ddesk
<1> 3ddesktop
<1> found it :)
<0> btw, i was having serious problems getting xorg working (1.1 i think)
<0> I had to download the drivers from nvidia to get things all patched up
<2> 3ddesktop is a lot less impressive than xgl/compiz
<0> anyone know if there is some other work around using the gentoo packages?
<3> Simkin: put VIDEO_CARDS="nvidia" in your make.conf
<2> Um
<2> Simkin, The new xorg-server has an ABI change in it that breaks the binary nvidia drivers
<4> hello everyone
<5> what are some useful groups to be in? so far i have wheel, audio, video, cdrom, usb.
<1> Simkin: alas, fluxbox breaks it, and requires a patch. I don't care enough about it to bother
<6> patg: ok kernel is compiled and running
<7> what is a block device?
<3> nikkun: /etc/init.d/alsasound start
<6> patg: same erros
<8> Uhm, I know this isn't the place for this, but people on this channel seem to be the most knowlegable. What distribution should I use, I need something with a fairly easy install, that isn't too bloated, is stable, but not too light. Any ideas?
<3> trent: a device which can only read/write in blocks. That is, it can seek, but can't send a continuous stream of data
<3> nikkun: ok, what's the complete error?
<9> hi
<10> is there a messenger that support webcam in gentoo? thanks
<11> Deformative: if you are here you will be using gentoo
<7> hmm, when I try to mount /mnt/gentoo, it says that it isn't a block device, why would that be?
<6> patg: how do you want me to send it? its like pages long
<11> grumo: gyach
<12> trent: /mnt/gentoo is a directory
<1> nikkun: pastebin it
<12> trent: mount /block/device /directory
<8> I tried gentoo though, and the install was like, wow.
<6> ok
<10> openbysource: thanks
<1> Deformative: gentoo just has a hard install
<1> Deformative: it is very easy to maintain
<3> nikkun: paste me in a query, or you'll be kicked by some bots...
<11> yeah but it's more easy and faster to use.
<9> is there any way to know the maintainer of an ebuild, besides to take a look into bugzilla, any app in gentoolkit-dev or something
<1> Deformative: Debian
<4> I actually find that if you do a stage 3 install, it's not that hard
<1> cold0ero: is there another way?
<3> trent: what's the mount command you're using?
<8> Alright, I was thinking about debian.\
<1> Deformative: Debian will help you learn, honestly. It's very sensible
<6> http://pastebin.com/712056
<1> Deformative: I know it helped me
<4> well, you can always try to do a stage 1 or 2....
<13> lfs helps you learn :)
<4> but that's the hard way
<8> But debian is highly tested software, will I be able to get teh experimental e17, or no?
<7> mount /dev/hda4 -t ext3 /mnt/gentoo
<14> debian comes in 3 flavors... rusty, stale and broken
<1> i want to try lfs this summer
<7> I also tried it with /dev/hda4 and /mnt/gentoo switched
<15> hey guys, if im getting an message root@box does not exist when trying to send a test message via sendmail, how do i fix this?
<1> Deformative: probably not experiment. the packaging system HATES custom binaries.
<16> dz comes in too flavors, vanilla and strawberry
<1> Deformative: FreeBSD might be what you're looking for
<14> hydrogen comes in one flavor, and cannot spell
<3> trent: is your partition formatted?
<7> yes
<16> thatas alright!
<16> oof, too
<16> where'd that come from :/
<7> i was using it, but i lost my bootloader
<8> Hmm, a bsd, I will have to look into that.
<4> yeah, bsd would be nice for you
<6> patg:http://pastebin.com/712056
<1> Deformative: it's like Gentoo, though perhaps easier to set up
<1> Deformative: much better tools that gentoo; way better than portage
<8> Oh, sounds good.
<7> i installed windows on another partition which changed the mbl
<17> Is there a way to emerge --unmerge --deep? I want to remove KDE from my system.
<1> Deformative: and more documentation, and no linux kernel etc...
<4> and bsd inspects everything
<18> reiserfs takes a while to mount, doesn't it?
<3> trent: the mbr doesn't really matter here
<8> Mmm, freebsd sounds good.
<3> trent: try fdisk /dev/hda
<3> then p for print
<1> i hate the linux kernel; so yucky
<11> trent: fdisk -l
<4> XD
<8> Thanks so much.
<4> *waits for the kick*
<3> nikkun: are you sure your kernel is installed ok?
<6> >.<
<6> patg: i dont know
<1> Deformative: that's cool ;) I got my ego boost :p
<3> nikkun: how did you do it?
<10> openbysource: gyach doesn't seem to have webcam support...
<19> Do ati-drivers-8.25.18 work with xorg 7.1?
<11> grumo: it has i use it
<7> well i had a running gentoo env before
<7> so it has to be formated
<6> patg: um cp arch/x86_64/boot/bzImage /boot/kernel-2.6.16-gentoo-r9
<1> trent: what's the issue?
<11> trent: no need to do that. just repair grub.
<18> hello, how can i mount a drive so that a user may write to it? i have two fs in fstab with the same options, yet one can be written by a user, and the other one cannot
<4> any idea why I could run X programs after su but not anymore?
<3> trent: oh, alright, so what's fdisk saying?
<7> that is what I am doing
<1> unity: change the permissions?
<18> CalJohn: of the mount point?
<8> CalJohn, is there an IRC channel for freebsd, if so could you tell me what it is?
<3> nikkun: did you do a make modules_install?
<7> fdisk says "cannot open /proc/partitions"
<6> yes
<6> patg: yes
<11> trent: i guess you are in chroot ?
<1> it's here on freenode; #FreeBSD. need to register though
<18> CalJohn: the user creater the mount point, so it belongs to the user, and the user can write to it, but once the drive is mounted, even as user, the folder then belongs to root
<15> hey guys, if im getting an message root@box does not exist when trying to send a test message via sendmail, how do i fix this?
<10> openbysource: which version? did yuo get it with emerge?
<11> stark: yeah
<1> unity: users can't own mounts
<7> openbysource: I do not think so, I booted from the livecd, and have done nothing else
<11> grumo: yeah
<14> CalJohn: with the 'user' flag...
<11> trent: what does ls /proc shows
<19> unity: example /dev/hda1 /mnt/hda1 ntfs rw,auto,user,utf8 0 0
<7> nothing
<15> openbysource: what?
<1> dz: oh?
<14> there's 'user' and 'users'
<11> stark: the user doesn't exist or the hostname "box" doesn't exist
<14> they are different
<15> openbysource: how do i fix it
<4> wow, thanks, I needed that info about the user flag
<11> stark: what does this shows "hostname"
<4> always wanted to be able to jump into that damn windows drive from time to time
<15> openbysource: box
<3> nikkun: is your /boot in a separe partition?
<10> openbysource: i just don't see any option related to webcam
<10> how do you start it?
<6> patg: yes
<3> separate
<3> nikkun: you mounted it before copying?
<11> when you chat with someone it has a message window there you have one
<18> DrSlony: "/dev/hdc1 /home/unity/NewJuice reiserfs rw,user,exec,auto,async 0 0"
<11> stark: okay then try sending mail to some other user
<6> patg: um i believe its mounted since i just used ls to view it
<18> DrSlony: when i mount that as user, it is not writable
<15> openbysource: other user? being someone on my box, or someone else?
<11> stark: on the box
<3> nikkun: is there a grub on it?
<7> there we go, now I am chrooted
Return to
#gentoo
or
Go to some related
