<0> VelvetSatin: rc-update add xdm default
<1> fair point
<2> I have htat
<2> ponzur
<3> Gi
<4> VelvetSatin: just run xdm and be done with it
<2> I am in XDM
<3> Hi
<5> Do any AES encryption utilities come on the Gentoo install disc?
<2> I did the login
<4> VelvetSatin: ...so log in, select xfce for your session
<6> NeddySeagoon, thanks,, I'll contact you if it goes totally wrong :p
<2> But it still takes em the an ugly *** screen autmatically
<5> (I'm trying to figure out what cipher to encode my backup with)
<7> Advanced, ok
<2> where do I select?



<4> i forget, i haven't used xdm in a long time. should be a dropdown menu of some kind BEFORE you log in
<1> hang on there may not be an option for it in xdm
<1> xdm is very basic
<4> if he installed xfce4 it should be there
<4> if not, i don't know what to tell you, that would be very silly as it shows up in the other DM's fine
<3> I have a problem with apmd. When i try to start at boot it showme this mensage: "* APM support has not been compiled into the kernel". I compiled kernel with apm built-in.
<2> I don't see the "drop down"
<1> or velvetstatin: add -gnome to your use flags
<1> then emerge gdm
<1> gdm is nicer than kdm
<2> k
<2> That solves it
<2> Thank you
<2> I forgot about the USE flags
<2> Also, what other dependencies could gdm carry besides gnome?
<1> gtk?
<4> emerge -p gdm will tell you
<4> probably lots.
<4> i wish there was something in between xdm and kdm/gdm/entrance as far as bloat.
<1> so emerge -p is like the whatprovides option on rpm ?
<4> not sure
<1> ok
<5> Do any encryption apps come with any Gentoo install disc?
<4> just shows what will be done, it means pretend
<1> I think it is
<1> nightshadow have a look in the distfiles section on the disc
<1> im not sure
<5> crudball: without downloading each disc...
<1> there is only one disc
<4> Advanced: http://fire-eyes.org/temp/gcc-4.1.1.tbz2 , let me know when you have downloaded it
<5> (I only have a minimum install right now, which has no distfiles
<5> crudball: there are 3 or 4...
<1> how about on the cd?
<5> yes, I have a Minimum Install CD
<1> 3 or 4? I downloaded 1...
<5> there are no distfiles on it
<1> oh ok
<6> Fieldy, yep.. approximately 5 min..
<1> you are running it on a small hdd or just want to keep space and bloatage down?
<8> hello all.. i have a strange sound prolblem. I am using alsa with kernel modules for an atii IXP150 sound controller. I ran alsaconf and everything looked fine, modules loaded. I ran alsamixer checked volume levels and made sure nothing was muted. I tried to listen to some music. in xmms. I can see the eq going up and down, and i get no error.. but there is no sound. I tried plugging into every jack on the computer, front and bac
<8> k.. still no sound. Does any one have some ideas
<1> speakers turned on?
<1> I have done that before
<9> hi everyone. I can't compile mesa-progs-6.5. when doing the ld part of glxinfo it says _nv000027gl@@LIBGL: TLS definition in /usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.4.6/../../../libGL.so section .tbss mismatches non-TLS reference in //usr//lib/opengl/nvidia/lib/libGLcore.so.1 //usr//lib/opengl/nvidia/lib/libGLcore.so.1: could not read symbols: Bad value --- any ideas?
<8> they are headphones
<1> oh ok
<1> is there a volume setting in xmms?
<8> yes.. it is the same as pcm volume in alsamixer/kmix
<8> it is pegged
<1> I use mplayer so I dont know much about xmms
<1> ok
<10> xmms is ok ..it can't do aac though
<5> crudball: I just wanted a quick download :P
<10> vlc and mplayer and xine are the best
<1> ok
<10> and now with the new xine-libs it does wmv better than any other media player in linux
<5> crudball: but I'm looking into encryption/decryption apps that I can use to encrypt my backup with, and that I'll be ablt to decrypt later with a boot disc
<10> no more slowdown or freezing
<1> tbright have you run /etc/init.d/alsasound start ?
<11> okay. I've copied all my files using rsync -aH to my new hard drive and installed grub and it boots and seems to work great. but, wine doesn't work - it just sits there and hangs with no output at all - and remerging it doesn't do any good. some files might've been lost because I have to fsck.reiserfs --rebuild-tree last night (overheat?) and some permissions might've gotten messed up but that's all I can think of
<8> crudball: yep..



<1> t35t0r too right - mplayer owns
<1> ok
<8> and i added alsasound to boot with rc-update
<1> yeah
<12> howdy all. i accidentally shut down my computer in the middle of a boot, and i get "Error Loading Operating System" when trying to boot now. my instinct is that grub needs to be reinstalled: is this valid?
<13> Tman, try deleting your wine config in $HOME
<1> I juse added it to my local
<1> I think
<1> not sure
<1> oh well it works anyway
<11> AntiLiberal: just the config file or...?
<13> Tman, maybe it somehow cot compiled with CFLAGS that don't work with your new computer
<14> does fedora have a feature like emerge, im banned from the channel for some reason, i never even been to it
<13> Tman, test it in a different user account
<11> AntiLiberal: same computer; different hard drive
<8> mrclark:.. uh possibly.. or maybe you just need to copy the kernel image over to the boot partition again .. use the live cd to try it out
<6> Fieldy, done.. thanks a lot..
<12> tbright, kay. i fsck'd everything and it's all "clean".
<12> tbright, or at least fsck thinks so.
<15> whenever i use a program that uses video card acceleration i get these weird blue streaks on the screen
<8> mrclark: yeah .. maybe the kernel image went wonky.. i dont know why it would.. but i bet that would fix it.. .. do you get a boot loader promt or not?
<15> and if i leave it running itll quickly freeze everything
<13> wine doesn't work at all for me here - it gets some kind of X11 error (X_CreateWindow)
<10> ropoctl_, what video card, what kernel, what driver version, what xorg, are you setting your refresh rates or allowing X / EDID to do it, is your monitor broken?
<2> okay...
<5> Can I get a list of software on the Gentoo 2006.0 LiveCD?
<10> NightShadow, what do you need just ask
<2> What>
<5> t35t0r: if it has ccrypt installed
<16> hey all, how do I keep Xorg from installing on my mail server. I am trying to do an emerge -up world and even with USE="-X -kde -qt -alsa -arts -doc" emerge -up world it still wants to install Xorg.
<5> or at least the source code
<13> Does anyone know where there is a fast, free virtulizer for PowerPC called mol but vmware is slower and not free for PC ?
<10> NightShadow, ccrypt or crypt?
<13> actually I can't be sure it's slower
<5> ccrypt
<10> NightShadow, never heard of that
<17> Hi I am trying to make a media dir on my server (/opt/media) and was wondering what chown/chmod commands I should use on it to give all local and nfs uses rw. Any idea
<13> where = why
<5> ccrypt uses AES to encrypt/decrypt files, its in portage
<10> NightShadow, no it's not on the livecd I bet
<11> AntiLiberal: it doesn't seem to work at all. even 'winecfg' hangs
<5> darn
<13> far0k, put it in /var/media or /home/media
<5> t35t0r: Know of any strong encryption apps that are?
<10> NightShadow, perhaps shasum
<13> Tman, my wine doesn't work at all either - fatal error connection to X server
<12> tbright, no, grub doesn't seem to initialize, or perhaps the "error loading OS" error is one of grubs errors.
<5> t35t0r: SHA is a hash though...which isn't used for encryption
<5> it's used for authentication
<8> mrclark: in that case you might need to redo grub. boot with the install cd. mount your partitions, chroot into the env, then go from there
<10> NightShadow, sorry right
<11> AntiLiberal: at least you get an error at all
<10> NightShadow, so ccrypt doesn't create a hash ?
<5> nope
<5> ccrypt completely encodes the file using AES and a keyphrase you provide
<10> oh you said encrupt decrypt files
<10> duh
<7> mrclark, Thats 5 : Partition table invalid or corrupt. Its a bad sign
<10> didn't read your original message closely
<8> so no guesses on this sound .. or lack of sound problem,?
<5> ah
<5> AES or RSA would be preferable
<10> NightShadow, right so it's just a quick version of pgp
<13> NeddySeagoon, sime for disk recovery utilities
<5> t35t0r: basically
<10> NightShadow, without having to fool around with keys and stuff
<18> NeddySeagoon: hey
<5> I might just compile ccrypt and throw it on my usb stick
<5> yea
<7> AntiLiberal, You get that from BIOS raid - its normal
<10> NightShadow, good idea
<18> NeddySeagoon: i got my gentoo computer working
<10> NightShadow, quickpkg it
