Comments:

<0> is there a keyboard LED indicator for gnome? my keyboard doesn't have any LEDs on it, save "Low Battery"
<1> willwork4foo, emerge eix && update-eix && eix -e porthole
<2> dli: ok
<3> Tidus: there's a gkrellm plugin for LEDs
<0> arbiter_dev: i'm wanting one for the panel tho
<3> Tidus: i haven't heard of any
<4> hey there.
<0> arbiter_dev: do you know if conky can show keyboard LEDs ?
<0> i'm putting conky on here instead of gkrellm2
<3> there may be some way to get LED status into conky
<4> my gdm doesnt work anymore. i updated it via portage and now the boot process always starts xdm. the error message is gdm_config_parse: Authdir /var/gdm does not exist. Aborting.
<0> arbiter_dev: that would be good, because my keyboard is one of those wireless ones that has no LEDs on it... cheap, but it works
<4> what can i doo?
<4> do?
<5> blumenkraft: tried making the dir it wants?



<2> how do I force a program that wants to run fullscreen to run in a window instead? (in gnome)
<4> yeh
<4> it exists
<6> wyvern: somewhat delayed pong
<4> well at least /var/gdm exists
<7> Hi guys, anyone with NFS/LDAP experience around ?
<4> i created authdir in this directory but it is the same error
<8> When using xnest to work on a remote server, is it possible to let that session run(detach so to speak) and come back to it later? When I now close the window it kills the X server.
<9> _Dan_: what in particular?
<4> no ideas?
<10> Hi, all. will "emerge -C package" remove the configuration file in /etc directory?
<0> blumenkraft: try re-merging gdm
<3> ldy: no
<10> arbiter_dev, Is there a way to remove unused configuration files?
<3> ldy: you have to do it at emerge time with CONFIG_PROTECT="-[mask]" emerge -C package
<7> genone: NFS is giving me headaches. I have a nfs server which denies access to files infrequently. Sometimes it works fine for 2 month, other times it happens twice a day. It seems like there is only 1 user account affected by this.
<7> genone: I did a reinstalled of that server yesterday, its not running Gentoo, kernel 2.6.14 and nfs-utils 1.0.6. The problem still exists. The old server was running Slackware / 2.4.26.
<10> arbiter_dev, Expect for files at /etc, are there any files whicl will not been removed when emerge -C ?
<9> _Dan_: checked the logs for better error messages?
<7> genone: /its not/its now/
<3> ldy: emerge --info, take a look at CONFIG_PROTECT
<7> genone: there are no error messages when the problem arises :(
<10> arbiter_dev, Thanks a lot:)
<3> anytime
<9> _Dan_: sorry, I won't be of much help then
<11> be back later
<12> anyone use the init script for hdparm?
<4> Tidus, remerging gdm doesnt help
<13> diamonte: yes
<12> If i was to use the init script for hdparm what do i tell it to send args to my sata hd
<10> arbiter_dev, Lots of directories in my CONFIG_PROTECT CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.4/env /usr/kde/3.4/share/config /usr/kde/3.4/shutdown /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/lib/X11/xkb /usr/share/config /var/qmail/control"
<12> peltco: Do you use it for sata drives?
<3> ldy: that's normal
<13> diamonte: nope
<10> arbiter_dev, Ok, I know more about gentoo :)
<12> Last time I had to link /dev/sda to /dev/hdx and after a reboot /dev/hdx disappears
<12> I think that has something to do with /erc/conf.d/rc
<12> err ..... /etc/conf.d/rc
<14> hi. does anyone know how "route" saves network configurations between boots. i'm running a distro based on gentoo and every time we reboot a notebook, we have to reconfigure the default gateway.
<12> matt-itautec: use an init script
<12> /etc/conf.d/net
<12> and then link /etc/init.d/net.lo -> /etc/init.d/net.eth0
<5> matt-itautec: its set in /etc/conf.d/net unless you're using dhcp which provides a route if its configured to
<14> ah, net. i was looking for /etc/init.d/route
<12> then rc-update add net.eth0 default
<14> thanks all
<12> matt-itautec: np

<15> jetf, yeah wish it was that easy,im following this and kind of stuck at whether to unmask it or use package.keywords for stable
<19> s0n1cm0nk, do you have to unmask xorg :-)

<2> :)
<1> Caplain, USB 1.1 is 12 Mbps
<24> dli, thanks
<25> I created an experimental database mapping files to ebuilds and would like your input to populate it. Please have a look at http://gentoo.gagern.sytes.net/f2edb/ and upload the data from your system, especially if you have many ebuilds installed.
<2> :)
<3> this seems like a decent place to ask (but it's off-topic) i'd like a simple 5.1 surround sound speaker setup, i have an sblive! and i'd like a speaker setup around $100, any recommendations?
