<0> how do i set a default sound card?
<1> hmm..were you able to get the vmware player working by any chance?
<2> coshx, yes i ran vmware-config.pl
<2> coshx: i don't think so, let me try again...
<3> hi
<3> I'm still having problems with my gentoo desktops....I'm not sure exactly what the problem is but it seems like some kind of path thing
<4> Shirakawasuna: any symptoms?
<3> essentially, first: kdm wouldn't load (xdm loaded xdm)
<4> Shirakawasuna: and /ect/rc.conf is correct?
<3> it gives me a message stating "which: no kdm in (blah blah blah)"
<3> thechris: yep
<3> thechris: when trying startx, it wasn't working at first...but then after adding /usr/kde/3.5/bin to the PATH variable in /etc/profile it started working
<5> complexity: re-emerge x11-libs/cairo
<3> by the way, this is a symptom of a normally perfectly working system
<2> shiznix, emerging
<3> two of them, in fact...both got the symptom at the same time



<4> Shirakawasuna: did you recently upgrade kde?
<3> I'm thinking the cause was either 1: I used CONFIG_PROTECT="-*" emerge -C for some unmerges or 2: I was messing around with etc-update replacements
<3> thechris: nope. KDE was working fine up until some recent event.....
<3> it seems to me that something similar to /etc/profile was damaged
<2> coshx: vmplayer does work, i'm going to put back on vmware-workstation, now that cairo is done compiling
<3> but it wasn't /etc/profile so far as I can tell because 1: My personalized PATH settings in /etc/profile were still there, proving it hadn't been overwritten and 2: /usr/kde/3.5/bin wasn't in /etc/profile and I don't believe it ever was
<3> if anyone here has kde 3.5.2 and would grep kde /etc/profile it'd be handy
<6> hey guys , i cant unset my version of gcc with eselect, it segfaults
<3> thechris: and the third symptom: a bunch of icons aren't being found in kde. It's not that they don't exist, it's just as if kde doesn't know they exist
<3> it's a very annoying problem
<4> hmm, not sure about that then. my KDE is messing up as well, though different reasons. for me, apps like kicker can't cleanly exit all of a sudden.
<4> i think its "that time of the month" for gentoo...
<3> another 'interesting' thing is that running 'which kdm' shows me the correct path to kdm after changing /etc/profile
<7> even after i try and emerge -C ati-drivers and emerge -uDav world it still tries to install them, is there a way to stop it
<0> okay i dont have barly ANYTHING in my /boot right, but it says theres only 1.1MB avaible!! but theres nothing consuming 49MB!! what could cause this?
<6> ld grep kde /etc/profile it'd be handy
<6> 16:29 < dragoon> hey guys , i cant unset my version of gcc with eselect, it segfaults
<3> but xdm still gives me some @#$@ about 'which: no kdm in (blah)' when it fails
<6> /usr/share/eselect//modules/compiler.eselect: line 29: 29585 Segmentation fault ${PROFILE_MANAGER} --config-dir="${CONFIG_D}" "${@}" >${tmp}
<4> mo699898: you might mask the drivers in package.mask. or emerge -pvt world to see what is wanting them.
<3> I'm thinking that emerge -e world will fix it....I just don't want to do it :)
<1> tama00: ls -l /boot ?
<8> tama00: you sure theres no dotfiles/dirs in your /boot that has a bunch of large files? .Trash maybe?
<0> coshx, all looks good
<1> oh right, ls -al
<0> TFKyle, ill check
<8> tama00: also, try du -h'ing files to see whats taking up so much space
<0> TFKyle, okay .trash had about 10megs of junk in it that i cleared
<0> TFKyle, theres enough space now:D
<0> thanks guys
<7> thechris, what should the package.mask line look like =x11=drivers/ati-drivers ?
<2> Ok everyone that was helping me with vmware, i still get the same errors, but now magically it works?
<3> thechris: what's your kde problem?
<4> Shirakawasuna: some kde apps don't exit cleanly
<4> mo699898: well, wihtout the = at the front
<2> this just boggles the mind
<2> let me rebooot the computer, and come back and tell you it was a fluke
<0> okay im gonna try my new kernel brb
<3> thechris: hrm. Using ~arch gcc?
<3> thechris: and I'm ***uming you've tried recompiling them
<4> Shirakawasuna: no, it was working. i didn't emerge anything. it just stopped working, but really, the programs only "crash" when i shut off the computer
<4> as far as problems go, i can live with this
<3> ok
<3> recompiling can fix things, though :)
<3> I'm hoping my emerge -e world fixes this.....
<3> although I'm not incredibly positive......it seems like some conf is corrupted, but I don't know which one :)
<6> can anyone help me with my problem?
<9> Does anybody know of a program I can use to display raw YUV data as an image?
<10> you might be able to use ffmpeg to convert it to a png or something
<11> can you run a distcc server on a windows machine?
<12> pvd: yes.
<10> pvd: probably, if you can get a cross compiler on it
<12> pvd: but it is more trouble than it is worth...
<13> lithium: tried imagemagick's display?
<11> ehh
<11> :-\
<9> cahoot: Yes, it says that it cannot detect image type.
<3> pvd: cygwin + linux stuff
<11> I dont like cygwin
<3> pvd: I'm sure there's a guide somewhere....check gentoo-wiki.com
<14> Anyone know what might cause fdisk to see my linux drive (40 gigs) as an 8 gigabyte drive with jacked up partitions? I installed windows for a lanparty on a seperate, 10 gigabyte hard drive recently. It killed the boot sector on the 40 gig, but it should not have touched the partitions. :-\



<9> stuuf: Do you actually know how to do that?
<11> maybe ill just install xubuntu on this other system than use it.
<10> i know it can encode video from a set of .y .u .v files...
<12> xbuntu makes me think of X and twm...
<10> xubuntu? what is that, ubuntu with xfce?
<12> stuuf: yea
<8> stuuf: its a bunch of ex-ubuntu'ers
<10> at least gentoo can manage other DEs without forking the whole distro
<3> pvd: perhaps you can knoppix + distcc
<3> pvd: depending on how temporary you want it to be
<11> Shirakawasuna, I want to use distcc for full system updates
<11> im not sure about knoppix, never tried it/.
<11> I know its a livecd
<15> got probs with installing xorg-x11
<3> then if knoppix has distcc + the correct gcc version, it'd work
<3> I suppose it'd be harder for the gcc version part....
<12> with condor, you may be able to avoid the version headache...
<11> knoppix is debian based right?
<15> emerge runs without complain, but at the end there is the complete directory /etc/X11 missing
<15> who knows, when should it usually be created?
<15> at emerging time, or by installing stage3
<10> timbo_: it will be created as soon as a package installs a file into it
<16> is portage 2.1 with /etc/portage/modules set to cache.anydbm.database meant to work properly? emerge metadata doesnt build the cache?
<15> so, that means, its the fault of the xorg-install...?
<17> guys, how do I figure out what kind of RAM my computer takes? I'm pretty sure it needs 2700, but I don't know about the pin numbers or mhz type or anything???!?!
<18> I want xgl... it's not in portage under some hideous name I missed, right?
<17> and I know you can get 3200+to work, but what should I get?
<18> know of any overlays or whatever is the easiest way of getting xgl?
<19> rvalles: #gentoo-xgl
<18> s0ulslack: thanks
<12> Why does xgl get its own channel ?
<19> cause of the flood of crap it caused :-) plus it isn't offically in portage
<20> probably because someone made it
<12> Why isn't it offically in portage?
<20> jow s0ulslack
<14> Found the problem. Bad ide cable.
<19> ola Autie :-)
<19> arrummzen: good question
<21> arrummzen: It's probably not considered stable enough. Additionally I've heard that xorg has it's own version of glx (aiglx?) that's going to be integrated into future (7.2?) releases
<3> arrummzen: xgl = hack
<3> arrummzen: it has its own channel because xgl questions are annoying :)
<19> I thought aiglx was novells deal
<12> aiglx is going to cause a big headache for me...
<12> Xgl is far easier to integrate with my systems than aiglx =(
<19> waste of resources IMO :-p
<3> unless you're running linux for the express purpose of being a sweet desktop
<19> still a waste :-)
<11> yeah, Im going to wait a while before I go for XGL. Maybe a year or so;)
<3> s0ulslack: ? How's it a waste then?
<3> your windows don't redraw quite as fast? :)
<19> its just a personal opinion, sweet desktop to me means functional
<19> eye candy is nice, but not needed (to that extent)
<3> the expose and cube desktop things are functional
<3> bouncy windows, not so much :)
<19> to each his own opinion :-)
<22> hi all.everytime i try to compile the kernel i get some warnings about clock skew detected. Anybody know how to fix it?
<23> iwkse: using speestep ?
<22> r0nny: i try it..
<22> r0nny: binded with this i think its also the weird show of the time in the timer applet
<22> when i open it its the right time but on the panel is showed 2 hours early
<23> hmm
<22> when i deselect UTC its ok
<3> iwkse: type 'date'
<22> r0nny: do you mean speedstep?
<22> Shirakawasuna: date show it good
<24> neopets is down. >:[
<22> but timer applet 2 hours early
<24> Sad ferret.
<23> iwkse: dynamic cpu-clock change used on laptops or low-power systems to save power/stay cool
<22> mm..i have a laptop
<22> r0nny: anyway do yo mean speedstep?
<23> yeah
<0> okay so i installed ut2004.. now when i run ut2004 it tells me my cd key is invaild.. but the weird thing is the ebuild installation of ut2004 didnt ask me for a cd key!
<23> darn - need to go
