Comments:

<0> the live cd does handles it perfectly
<1> does anyone hera use amarok?
<2> aran: yeah
<3> iphands: you should find a kernel parameter to compose the raid at boot. Or create a ramdisk that contains the raidtab and other neccessary stuff.
<4> anyone managed to play planeshift on gentoo?
<1> FieldySnuts, how do you mount an ipod so it picks it up?
<3> iphands: yes, but the livecd does have lots of stuff on it that can be used to scan the disk, etc
<0> ohh any idea what that kernel param is ?
<0> or what i should look for
<3> no, sorry
<5> tdr| ok its unpacked. now I have a dir with bin, dev, boot, home etc...
<3> There should be some documentation in the kernel source
<4> for ipod you might wanna check this: http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Using_an_iPod_With_Gentoo_Linux not sure if it helps with amarok problem tho ..
<2> aran: no idea
<3> ie /usr/src/linux/Documentation
<1> thanks



<1> one more question
<1> to mount the ipod like a hardrive, would i go mnt /dev/sda
<1> then the directory?
<6> aran: put the ipod up in "disk" mode?
<4> aran with mine i do mount -t vfat /dev/sda2 /mnt/ipod
<1> yeah
<4> aran then you can browse the /mnt/ipod directory and cp stuff on it or from it ..
<0> hramarch ill check it out thanks
<1> Riun, is sda2 universal?
<5> tdr| what next
<7> Anyone here know a good Linux-compatible (i.e., mounts as a drive, and not an iPod) MP3 player with 1GB+ capacity? How about one that *runs* Linux?
<8> do gn8
<9> so I just logged into my firewall to work on the kernel, but when I try mounting /boot I get mount: Operation not supported, sued in and SE is in permissive mode, any idea how I managed to do that?
<10> thinkinginbinary, not sure I understand what you are asking...
<9> thinkinginbinary check out older iRiver's
<9> I have their 40GB model, it just mounts as a portable HD, no DRM, works beautifully
<11> thinkinginbinary: Some iRivers have a firmware you can install to make it behave like a USB m*** storage device
<12> Evening people
<11> thinkinginbinary: however, mine is so well-supported under Linux I dont' bother :)
<7> ni1s: Two things. *Either* a decent-sized MP3 player, at least 1 GB, that mounts as a hard drive (no DRM-just-in-case like the iPods), *or* one that runs Linux itself.
<7> HedgeMage: By what software?
<7> thehailo: Ok. Any current ones?
<12> what is the best way to list you active hard drive's under gentoo ?
<7> SpaceCabbie: mount
<12> uh how ?
<13> Hello, having troubles with my promise sx4-m raid controller ... got 4 disks in a raid with ntfs on it... however not quite sure how to 'mount' it :/ ,,, tried to google it but didn't find any thing usefull where a raid where used :/
<11> thinkinginbinary: ifp-driver and I forget what the one with the pretty interface is called. I generally do things CLI just out of habit
<12> ah ic
<14> SpaceCabbie: just type mount
<10> thinkinginbinary, have you looked at this http://ipodlinux.org/ ?
<9> thinkinginbinary, not sure, I know their current gen dropped ogg support and I think got the MS "ready to play" cert or w/e, so I would ***ume they picked up DRM, look around for the 320 or 340's, they're both very solid and still kinda easy to find
<12> no i mean to also show the connect hard drive's
<7> Oh yeah, OGG compatibility!
<15> thinkinginbinary: flac :)
<7> SpaceCabbie: ls /dev/hd*
<12> i have added a new drive like to see witch name i recieved
<7> dz: Yeah, if I had 100000TB to spare.
<11> thehailo: the flash-based players all still have ogg support AFAIK, they just stopped advertising it.
<7> HedgeMage: really?!
<14> SpaceCabbie: fdisk -l
<11> thehailo: you have to read the fine print in the manuals, it's still there
<1> what does one emerge to have flashplayer in opera?
<5> Im installing gentoo in a seperate dir using the stage3 tarball. its unpacked, and I have dirs bin, dev, boot, etc ... how would I run gentoo to build?
<11> thinkinginbinary: want me to link you the blog article I wrote about my iRiver?
<7> HedgeMage: Sure, thanks.
<9> HedgeMage cool, I was kinda disappointed in iriver when I notiched that
<12> yes thats what i mean thanks
<14> workingmansdead: are you talking about a chrooted install envoironment... ??
<14> SpaceCabbie: np
<10> thinkinginbinary, Linux on a mp3 player == http://ipodlinux.org/images/e/e1/Ipodg43.jpg
<12> a second question i have added this hard drive witch has some badsectors i need a tool to intensivly scan the drive and prepere it for use again
<7> ni1s: No iPods.
<9> the only trick I recommend with the i320/40 is looking over the european firmwares
<5> TheRAt| i think so... very new to gentoo. im using Fedora now, and it ****s, so im switching
<9> they enable AVI support, for some reason the US ones don't take advantage of it, and there are some great opensource firmwares I've read about, however I haven't tested any
<14> workingmansdead: there is a section in the handbook describing how to install gentoo from an existing distro...
<14> workingmansdead: in the alternative install section...
<12> any idea? ?
<4> aran not sure if it's universal, but it works for mine



<7> thehailo: oh, the US site ALWAYS lags behind the global one.
<7> thehailo: Wait, which model are you talking about (AVI)?
<5> TheRAt| thanks. I saw the install from tarball option, but i couldn't find any handbooks describing how
<9> thinkinginbinary 320/340 non-US firmware
<14> workingmansdead: tahe a look at http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/altinstall.xml
<7> thehailo: Oh.
<7> thehailo: Aren't those old triangular-shaped flash ones?
<9> thinkinginbinary the 320/340? they're ipod shaped jukeboxes
<16> um what would be the best way 2 re-emerge everything installed on my system?
<7> thehailo: oh
<11> thinkinginbinary: http://hedgemage.livejournal.com/3506.html is the article from when I got it... http://hedgemage.livejournal.com/tag/iriver is everything I've written about it (the first article plus one or two whining about playlist weirdness)
<12> is there no tool that can do that i know there is something like it on the recue disk
<9> http://www.iriver.com/html/product/prpa_product.asp?pidx=42 i340
<7> thehailo: the rest of the name is important too
<5> TheRAt|thanks. I owe you one :-P
<11> DD|Server: everything, or just what needs to be updated?
<9> that's what I have, though it needs a new battery, but for $30 I can toss in a replacement ipod battery, so can't complain
<9> er, iRiver H340, sorry, bouncing between windows
<16> HedgeMage: everything :-P
<11> I mainly want my tunes when I work out, so a HD-based player wouldn't last me
<17> hi - i'm using the framebuffer howto (http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=49036) followed everything .. but i get an error while booting, tells me the mode is not suported.. somebody can help ?
<18> Is there anyway to, I guess, forward apps using X11 Forwarding through ssh that are already running, or would I have to kill the process and restart it?
<16> HedgeMage: emerge world should do it?
<11> I picked the iRiver for the ogg/linux support and for the waterproof casing and headset
<11> I LOVE listening to music while I swim!
<7> HedgeMage: The iRiver site babbles about "Music Transfer Protocol". Need I use it?
<9> http://www.misticriver.net/ is supposed to be a good place to see what the irivier's *can* do, ie unofficial mods (battery replacement) and non-standard firmwares
<11> DD|Server: yep, though it won't go into dependencies of things you emerged unless they HAVE to be updated
<11> DD|Server: I think "emerge -D world" would do the stuff you asked for plus all the dependencies
<11> thehailo: thanks for the link, I don't think I've been there
<16> HedgeMage: ah thanks :-)
<11> DD|Server: np
<9> HedgeMage no worries, I was looking over some of the opensource firmwares, most of them look cool but honestly I'm not really a music enthusist, so most the added options don't mean anything to me
<19> i am a kde-user for now, can i give gnome a try? be just emerge gnome? and is it easy to get it off my system after?
<11> BTW, is there a "dumbest thing I ever did on/to Gentoo" list somewhere... I have one for it... the other night, I accidentally compiled the driver for my new printer without support for printing.
<11> thehailo: I'd find it attractive if one fixed their playlist issues... that's the only thing that peeves my about my iRiver
<20> where is the xinetd script in 1.6.14? I can't find it anywhere to restart it...
<9> HedgeMage how so? besides the initial learning curve I've never had an issue with it, though I admit that the interface isn't as clean as the ipods
<17> HedgeMage try to compile a kernel after an installantion and skip the part of grub installation...
<21> wotnarg: "equery files xinetd" , perhaps ?
<22> hi
<11> thehailo: I don't think the problem exists on the HD-based players.
<20> drac: did the querying message, and then exited.
<23> can anyone give me some help with ivman
<22> I have "-X" in the USE in make.conf but when I try to emerge captive it says me it requires xorg-x11, why?
<23> its not mounting my USB drives
<11> thehailo: on the flash-based ones, the only way to put songs in a playlist is to upload them to their own directory on the player, in the order in which you want them to be played. That means that if I want the same song in three playlists, I need three copies of the song.
<4> anyone installed crystalspace-0.99_pre20050823? (one of the dependencies for planeshift?)
<11> thehailo: it also means that every time I make a playlist change, I have to delete and re-upload the whole directory
<20> drac: locate xinetd returns only the directory, so it doesn't appear to be under that name anywhere.
<21> wotnarg: You didn't get any output? Is xinetd even installed? emerge -pv xinetd
<9> HedgeMage wow, that's a terrible layout, I can imagine that getting annoying real fast
<20> drac: well, xinetd.d exists.
<17> i followed the framebuffer howto (http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=49036) followed everything .. but i get an error while booting, tells me the mode is not suported.. somebody can help ?
<24> How can you set the max character limit for a line in vim before it drops down? I want to make it 76 but it won't work, i am trying to set it it "set textwidth=76"
<21> wotnarg: check "emerge -pv xinetd" is that an R or N ?
<18> Is there anyway to forward apps using X11 Forwarding through ssh that are already running, or would I have to kill the process and restart it?
<4> Zepp: erm you need a : before set? doesn't it work even with one?
<9> enternal have you toyed with xforwarding before?
<25> how long should emerge mozilla-firefox take on a P3?
<9> blueG I'd say atleast an hour or half and a half
<22> blueG, weeks xD
<20> drac: afk one second
<2> anyone try amarok-1.4_beta1 ? i am trying to use it, it goes to build the collection and it gets to 12% and just aborts. no errors, including on STD{OUT,ERR}.
<18> thehailo: I've recently configured it and working
<24> Riun: I meant in .vimrc but i tried setting in gvim with :set textwidth=76 but it still doesn't drop down after 76 chars
<26> 7msg tomaw so it happens when someone just types startkeylogger ? how silly
<26> err, silly key
<9> enternal, k, just from personal experience I suggest checking out the various VNC systems, X tends to be a lil slow over anything but local networks, and it tends to be a little tougher to setup
<13> Sily question, do i need RAID support for using my hardware raid? .. the help only speaks of software raids :/
<25> ah, thanks, it just finished compiling and started installing, so i think it is getting there.
<11> thehailo: The only reason I stuck with the player is the ogg support and waterproof casing... they outweigh the annoyance.
<2> oh well. back to non beta.
