Comments:

<0> thechris: incidentally, although v5 is marked stable you can still use package.mask if you want to constrain yourself to dev-lang/php-4. that question often comes up.
<1> roger55: huumm... I found a fix..
<2> kerframil: I'm reading through the docs on how to upgrade to the new dev-lang packages...
<0> FroMaster: good show
<3> uhhhh, im trying 2 setup a cups print server on one of my gentoo boxes, but for some reason i dont have any parallel port entrys in /dev, any 1 kno how to fix that?
<4> DD|Server: config kernel to support paport
<5> can someone help me get my boot loader working with amd64?
<4> DD|Server: config kernel to support parport and printer
<6> holla
<3> cahoot: ahh k will do
<6> quisiera hacer una pregunta al personal
<5> i basically followed the instructions from the gentoo site for grub, but when i reboot the screen never comes up and the system continues to boot windows 2003
<7> hey why can i only login on root with kde but not my user?
<8> are there any emerge management apps that will actually show me what packages are available, as opposed to just showing me what packages are installed and/or need updated?
<9> Can anyone tell me how I can reinstall tar? it accidentally got removed from my system :D
<5> emerge tar ?



<8> DogWater: emerge tar?
<9> emerge uses tar
<4> zoul: chicken-and-egg situation
<10> anyone here remember how to detach from a screen console?
<0> DogWater: x86 platform?
<8> cahoot: so that's a no?
<3> nick125: ctrl + a + d
<9> yeah x86
<8> everything in /usr/portage/ is installable, correct?
<9> can someone put it someplace I can wget it? lol
<10> DD|Server: cool, thanks
<11> DogWater: You could mount the livecd and copy it from there.
<12> zoul: ever tried eix?
<8> DenisG: no ...
<13> zoul: try it
<8> is it graphical?
<0> DogWater: yeah. or ask someone to do `USE="static" emerge --buildpkg tar` for you and supply the results
<13> thank god no
<9> anyone willing to throw tar up somewhere that i can grab it? :D
<4> zoul: was referring to the problem emerging tar when the predecessor is deleted
<8> DogWater: I'd do it, but I'm x86_64
<12> doesn't yukiyu do that graphically?
<8> doesn't emerge have a binary flag ... where it downloads a pre-compiled version for your architecture?
<0> DogWater: well, supply /usr/bin/tar in fact - building would make a tarball itself (doh ;)
<9> yeah i actually need the binary
<14> should it take an hour to update ndiswrapper?
<15> ? avenj bins
<16> http://dev.gentoo.org/~avenj/bins/
<0> moreon: doesn't have it
<17> moreon, tarballs without tar?
<15> yeah... nevermind :)
<18> Hi folks, I'd like to use fbsplash + swsusp v2 but on the gentoo-wiki.com page I'm being warned about filesystem corruptions if I don't set something correct with my initrd, but my initrd only contains the splash stuff, there is no linuxrc nor init, can I still keep my nice fbsplash and use hibernate without danger ?
<9> says cant execute binary file :D
<9> lol
<15> Wasn't making us all install busybox supposed to alleviate this problem? :)
<8> hrm, DogWater I can extract a tarball of tar for you ... and put it up somewhere ...
<17> moreon, good point.
<9> Thats actually how I got here moreon; the busybox version of tar didnt have anything i needed in it so i copied over it :D
<9> symlinks... i did something goofy
<17> moreon, but busybox doesn't do bz2's I think.
<8> ok ... eix doesn't seem to have any form of 'package list' ... just seems to be a package search tool... ?
<9> hmm. any idea what permissions i'd need to set on this? it keeps telling me it cant execute it :D
<17> zoul, there are no binaries unless you make them
<15> zoul: you can list packages in a certain category if you want. eix -C some-category | less and then scroll through it
<19> hi
<19> problem with apmd
<8> roger55: /usr/portage/ has a list of all the possible packages that can be emerged ... I'm looking for a tool to show me the list, and let me select which packages I want ... then it installs them for me ...
<19> it need gcc 3.3.6
<19> what should I do?
<20> what's the package to get the java plugin for firefix
<17> zoul, porthole gtk or kuroo kde
<21> dogwater: chmod +x tar and of course be sure to be on a partition that is not mounted with the noexec option
<9> bah; life hates me today
<8> moreon: yeah, I'm just wondering if their's something already out there that does exactly what I've mentioned ... a graphical, GTK or QT app that lists the portage package list ... and let's you check off what you want installed, and then does it ... as well as tells you if it's already installed, etc ...
<9> this binary someone sent me isnt working for me either..
<9> gah.
<17> Sakkath, put mozilla and java in your USEflags and emerge blackdown-jre
<8> if not, I'm going to write one ... but re-inventing the wheel is usually fruitless
<22> hey, i'm doing emerge --metadata and i'm getting a bunch of errors like: auxdb exception: [/usr/portage::net-misc/bcm4400-3.0.13]: "Corruption detected when reading key 'bcm4400-3.0.13': Key count mistmatch" ...should i be worried?
<9> I downloaded the source pkg from gnu.org but it wont compile :D
<23> zoul: you dont need this kind of software



<20> roger55: i had emerged sun-jdk
<20> roger55: ill remerge with those flags
<17> Sakkath, then you can link it manually
<2> Is there a VMware prebuilt image for Gentoo? I looked on the VMware site but didn't see it...
<15> zoul: as roger55 said, porthole and kuroo and gui versions of portage. I haven't given either one a try tho :P
<8> moreon: ahh, ok ...
<8> ackro: 'need' and 'want' are two very different things ...
<8> the 'need' for **** things is not their, but it'd be nice to have it ...
<17> their/there
<8> especially being as the number of available packages/software for linux is growing every day, and I'm not aware of every possible software package that's out there ...
<23> zoul: ok, agreed
<20> roger55: if i use kde, should i emerge kdejava and qtjava?
<17> Sakkath, never heard of them.
<20> roger55: i just found wile eix'ing for java
<20> roger55: "Java bindings for QT" "Java bindings for KDE"
<20> actually, "KDE Java bindings"
<17> Sakkath, I don't need them.
<7> why will kde only run on root nothing else?
<20> roger55: ok
<23> Death_Wish: maybe you need to be in group "video"
<17> Death_Wish, misconfigured permissions?
<24> which is the best file recovery for ext3 on linux ?
<9> anyone have an i686 tar binary they can let me leech from them? lol
<7> how can i check?
<23> Death_Wish: id $username
<25> where do I find out what to do with my portage errors
<7> gid=100(users) groups=100(users),10(wheel),18(audio),19(cdrom),27(video),35(games),85(usb),250(portage)
<9> Sorry to keep asking dumb questions but is there a way to make emerge just download a package?
<26> how do you tell what speed your cpu is running @ (cpu freq scaling)
<27> brainiac_ghost: /proc/cpuinfo will tell you
<28> DogWater: -f
<27> brainiac_ghost: or there are many different utilities
<23> Death_Wish: check /var/log/Xorg.0.log
<29> DogWater: emerge --help would tell you that -f is for "fetch only"
<26> mbishop: doesn't ajust with the freq
<27> brainiac_ghost: yes it does
<30> gah, i just can't get my burner working
<31> i can't emerge --update --deep --newuse --world. i get a message that "bootsplash is blocking splashutils" but even after removing bootsplash i still get the same message
<24> which is the best file recovery for ext3 on linux ?
<30> brosioz: emerge prayer ;-)
<23> brosioz: there is no answer for this kind of question
<7> ackro, everything is ** or II
<25> I Cannot get GCC3.4.4 To update on my box
<25> there is a problem!
<9> AllenJB: sorry to bother you I just lost tar off of my box and i'm trying to get it back.
<29> clirico: How did you "remove" it? If you used emerge --unmerge it's possible you had multiple versions installed (if it's a slotted package) and some are still installed.
<23> Death_Wish: maybe: rm -rf ~/.kde ?
<7> whats that do?
<32> DogWater: why can't you merge it?
<31> @allenjb: i did use emerge --unmerge
<25> can I somehow run emerge world and exclude a package from emerging?
<29> ano: Because it probably comes in a tarball
<32> ahhhh
<9> ano: because you need tar
<32> I see..
<29> DogWater: You could download and burn an install CD (or use one you already have) - I think even the minimal CD should have a working tar binary on it
<9> whew that worked
<9> thx
<25> can I somehow run emerge world and exclude a package from emerging?
<25> gcc 3.4.4 wont update properly in portage!
<29> cvncpu: What do you want to do? Not upgrade a given package? If so, you can use /etc/portage/package.mask to do that - "man protage" for further info.
<25> well I want to fix this eroor
<25> and update
<8> route_eth1("default gw 192.168.1.1") ... or route_eth1("default via 192.168.1.1") ... I found the first one in the gentoo install guide, and the second in the /etc/conf.d/net.example file ...
<8> neither of them seem to work, when I run /etc/init.d/net.eth1 ... it sets '192.168.0.1' as the default gw ... and I have to manually run 'route add default gw 192.168.1.1' before I can resolve anything with the name server ...
<29> cvncpu: Also search on Gentoo's bugzilla (don't forget the ALL keyword) and the forums for solutions to your problem.
<31> AllenJB: how would i go about removing those other versions of bootsplash to complete the update?
<33> Anyone know of a free equivalent to the 'Visual Route' program? It provides a graphical representation (on a map) of a traceroute
<17> zoul, well it looks like you disagree with your own config's gateway-IP
<8> roger55: ?
<17> zoul, can you post your /etc/conf.d/net to a pastebin site?
<19> what should I do if emerge apmd fails with something relating on gcc 3.36?
<8> my gateway is 192.168.1.1 ... but when I run /etc/init.d/net.eth1 ... it uses 192.168.0.1 for some reason
<17> smg_, post the error to a pastebin
