<0> rodoke, i make it on my server with 4GB+
<0> but i'm trying to make on my laptop
<0> hehehe
<0> I will reboot
<1> nagual, no, but have you restartet X?
<2> Damn..
<0> sec
<0> thanks for all
<2> How long does gnome take to emerge, usually?
<3> No I have not restarted X.
<4> my /boot is only 38m and 7% full =x
<5> no need, umount -v /var/tmp/portage
<3> Should I?
<5> BAH
<4> u don't need very large space for /boot
<1> ohh, anf Fieldy, you can install gnome-lgiht without mozilla



<2> I read I needed atleast 64
<4> that's what they recommend
<5> dasch: ok, tell him how when he comes back (I don't need to know)
<2> -shrugs- Well I won't be running out of space
<5> Sensae: 64 what
<2> Next install I'll go down to 32m
<1> ohh, sry
<2> 64m, Fieldy
<2> for /boot
<3> no dasch I have not restarted X. Should I?
<6> you don't even need a /boot :)
<1> nagual, yes
<3> OK.
<5> 20MB is enough for boot, unless you are using reiserfs which always uses at least 33 MB
<7> Does anyone have experience dealing with Gentoo and a rebadged (by Dell) Lexmark z6xx? >_>
<2> Nope, ext2
<2> lol, mine is at 128mb
<8> Sensae: If you've merged it before, you can use "genlop" which can help you out on time estimates
<5> not a matter of need, some of us want it, in my case I want it unmounted so if there is a problem / power loss, there is less chance of kernels being smacked
<6> why use a journaled fs for /boot though?
<5> yeah, there is no point in that
<5> some folks do though
<2> lol, I know
<5> and if you use reiserfs 3, it always takes up 33MB minimum, so you're talking 33 + however-much-you-want-free sized partition.
<5> wonder if 4 has that issue. think i'll try
<2> I read somewhere it suggested 64 even for ext2, so I bumped it to 128, swap is 512, rest is /
<9> The reason for a separate /boot goes back to old BIOS issues with large disks.
<9> ext2 should get by on about 4M for boot...
<9> 32 is heaps.
<2> I know
<2> I realized that afterwards
<7> I use 64M ext2 /boot partitions all the time. >_>
<5> ok. reiser4 users a minimum of 100K, compared to reiser 3's 33MB. nice.
<10> I know this is slightly offtopic.. anyone know of known safe dns serrvers I can use in case my own isps servers go down again?
<7> I wonder if NIST has public DNS servers...
<11> is it possible to omit the /boot on a newer machine? i know it is possible with gentoo on my iBook but what about on a newer x86?
<10> must be reliable
<9> Firztspawn: check you national registry...
<6> Firztspawn: used these for nearly 5 years: 4.2.2.{1-4}
<5> Krillancello: dig ns nist.gov , try one
<12> tommoyer324: yes
<9> They will be as reliable as you get...
<10> brianw: would they be slow to a user in NZ?
<12> tommoyer324: you dont need a seperate partition for /boot
<11> is there anything special that needs done or as long as I get grub.conf correct everything will work
<6> Firztspawn: no idea
<5> nists's DNS servers reject public queries.
<5> 4.2.2.1 is a good fast public dns server (easy to remember too)
<13> folks, can I post an emerge error here for something I need to solve quickly?
<14> yay I'm in linux :D
<10> ok thanx Fieldy
<9> drmikecrowe: pastebin it
<15> Juggernaut, What's that?
<15> ;)
<13> It's short: It's a strange one: I'm emerging dev-lang/php. getting this error: configure: error: cannot compute sizeof (char)
<8> Firztspawn: I use the DNS servers at my local university, you could look there.
<13> I don't see anything in bugs
<9> bit`: that is a four letter word begining with t.
<10> just looking for a backup is all (my own isps dns servers went down last night for hours for the second time since I joined em)
<16> well php stinks anyway



<16> sign from god!
<2> Damn, gnome is taking a -long- time to emerge
<7> So does anyone know anything about getting a rebadged Lexmark printer working under Gentoo?
<5> Sensae: that's typical of gnome, it's huge
<8> Firztspawn: those servers are <20km away, my ISPs are >1000km
<17> kde takes even longer though :P
<15> drmikecrowe, try to find the very first error...
<3> thx dasch it is now working.
<7> Sensae, I just use Fluxbox. ;)
<10> ok rodjek might look into that too
<1> nagual, cool
<18> I installed second NIC Realtek rev 10 (Netgear Ga311) - compiled RLT 8169 in the kernel and no luck! Do I need to set up some else? ifconfig -a shows only eth0 and lo
<13> bit`, that is first error
<10> rodoke: *^
<3> so dasch, do you think in the long run it would be easier if I reinstalled using the guide and commmand line?
<9> wolf4911: did you set up the init script for it?
<18> no
<1> nagual, what?
<3> I have done that before, but wanted to get this box up while I was at work, so I used the gui, and the live cd.
<3> I am talking about the whole system.
<15> drmikecrowe, ok..will use that error string in the forums to see if anyone else is having similar problem
<1> nagual, ohh, never used the gui :)
<3> It worked, I just don't feel like the sytsem is as customized as it could be dasch
<9> wolf4911: "ln -s /etc/init.d/net.lo /etc/init.d/net.eth1"
<1> nagual, if its running its ok
<19> anyone have azureus working from portage?
<1> nagual, you can still customize your system after it's running
<3> doing an emerge -uD --newuse world right now to recompile things with nvidia support.
<18> RobbieAB>- thanks
<9> wolf4911: than try "/etc/init.d/net.eth1 start"
<3> I think I am going to recompile the kernel, and take out what isn't neede.d
<3> Well dasch, thx for the help. Gonna go watch the simpson.
<3> simpsons
<20> dj-fu: azureus-bin on my amd64 machine works fine
<3> l8r.
<1> nagual, you're welcome
<9> wolf4911: if that brings it up without errors, add it to the default runlevel.
<19> doh, didn't realise there was a -bin.
<8> dj-fu: do you try "azureus" and "azureus-bin"? I could only ever get the latter to work.
<19> thanks
<19> I tried azureus and it complaied about the firefox use flag, and it wanted the mozilla use flag
<19> and mozilla and firefox cannot coexist on the same system, or somesuch.
<15> drmikecrowe, other people are having similar problem. maybe gcc... looking
<19> about to try azureus-bin, thanks guys ;]
<21> what is the default directory for firmware images? i have my ipw2200.fw files but i'm not sure where to put them
<11> does anyone know if it is possible to move a reiserfs partition? i have some free space from an old windows installation and would like to reclaim it, but it is at the beginning and I thought that the resize utility for reiserfs required the free space after the partition to be resized
<21> /sys/firmware ?
<19> synackuator, possibly check the ebuild in net-wireless/ipw2200-firmware, it installs them
<5> synackuator: no reason to do it manually, emerge ipw2200-firmware
<19> mm, or that ;pa
<15> drmikecrowe, are you looking in the forums also?
<22> is there any version of FreeNX that builds with modular Xorg 7?
<23> can someone tell me why:
<23> error while loading shared libraries: libImlib2.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
<23> i have imlib2 installed
<5> draeven_: nxserver-freenx builds fine for me with modular, as does nxclient
<18> RobbieAB>you think it was not recognized because of the symlink?
<18> the led was not even on that makes me think there is someelse yo it
<9> wolf4911: What does dmesg say?
<22> Fieldy: what version?
<5> draeven_: of what
<22> nxserver-freenx
<11> i just saw on namesys.com that reiser4 has been released...any idea when it will become part of the mainstream kernel?
<5> draeven_: net-misc/nxserver-freenx-0.5.0.20060311-r1 . i would strongly suggest using the ~arch / masked versions of nx, they have a lot of important fixes.
<18> dmesg|grep 8169
<18> says nothing
<8> tommoyer324: AFAICT that's a whole big can 'o worms. Hans Reiser and the kernel development team seem to have had a "falling out"...
<11> ah
<24> tommoyer324: reiser4 was released a long time ago
<24> and it still ****s
<22> FIeldy: that's what I've been using - nx-x11 wont build tho...build log posting to pastebin in a sec
<5> reiser4 works very solidly for me, give it another year and I will trust it
<8> tommoyer324: I think that some of the patched series available in portage have it included. Unfortunately gentoo's official kernel doesn't
