<0> a fast installer is just what this distro needs for universal adoption, if you want to feel l33t why don't you try LFS
<1> Jester, I followed the handbook and learned alot.
<0> "direction gentoo is taking" I'm so pissed now, bbl
<2> sniff... sniff... I smell a /kick coming
<3> whar direction is that?
<3> s/whar/what/g
<4> I for one welcome our new easily-installed overlords.
<5> there will always whiners and complainers when a distro improves decreasing the difficulty or learning curve those ****ers will find another distro that makes the feel like they belong to some sort of exclusive club
<5> unfortunately in the linux community they dont seem to just die
<5> or grow up
<6> keep up the discussion and participants will be dealt with
<7> We sure don't :)
<6> Castr0: do not use that language again
<1> Wow...
<1> The gentoo installer is on topic, it has to relate to gentoo.
<6> i say again, want to talk about it goto #gentoo-ot
<6> thoffmeyer|AFK: no
<1> I say again, why is it OFFTOPIC?!
<6> thoffmeyer|AFK: this is gentoo support chanel
<8> hey whats the shell command to find a certain file?
<9> lol... jesus just let it go
<10> thoffmeyer|AFK: this is a support channel for Gentoo Linux. A _support_ channel. If you want to bicker about the rules, #gentoo-ops.
<6> Death_Wish: find
<8> cause im trying to find a file called rc0.d
<1> Oh... I got you... so calling you a worthless slut is off topic..
<11> Death_Wish: find or locate
<11> thoffmeyer|AFK: wtf?
<10> or that
<9> lol
<6> haha
<10> err
<10> who is thechris? :P
<4> Death_Wish, 'find [path/to/find/in] -name [name_of_file]'
<8> thnk u
<8> thank you*
<8> cause vm is looking for the directy for rc0.d but i can't find it and i did find / -iname 'rc0' but nothing
<4> Death_Wish, try adding wildcards.
<4> Death_Wish, e.g. `find / -iname '*rc0*'
<8> What is the directory that contains the init directories (rc0.d/ to
<8> rc6.d/)?
<12> any regexp buffs in here? Im looking for a way to remove all but the first x characters in a piped stream in a bash script
<6> wb thechris :)
<13> heh, that was unexpected
<11> Death_Wish: gentoo doesn't use those.
<8> then how can someone else have vmware installed then?
<6> Death_Wish: /etc/runlevels
<8> on gentoo
<13> cosmo_: its not hard givem e a sec
<6> Death_Wish: use the app `rc-update` to control rc
<3> anyone tried crossover?
<6> cereion_: crossover cat5 cable?
<14> quick question... how can I check my current screen resolution in X?
<11> xdpyinfo
<15> Think he meant crossover office
<3> hehe, now codeweaver crossover ;)
<3> s/now/no/
<12> n17ikh|Lappy, I dont know, so I usually move my little monitor adjustment knob, and the monitor tells me what resolution its detecting
<13> cosmo_: sed s/'....\(.*\)'/'\1'/
<8> oh gentoo add emerge vmware-workstation
<8> had*
<14> O.o
<14> x is running my monitor at 1600x1200
<14> this is a bit... strange
<11> n17ikh|Lappy: why?
<14> my modeline specifies 1152x864
<14> I'm kind of surprised the monitor goes that high
<16> just wondering i installed ipw2200 us emerge ipw2200 but in the new kernel it is in the kernel tree so i unmerged it and removed the module from the kernel excepted when i do a modprobe it tries to load the old module how do i update it
<11> n17ikh|Lappy: is that what xdpyinfo showed you?
<14> yep
<11> cool!
<11> well, maybe not
<14> and it's tiny as well
<14> it's not cool
<14> because
<14> it's at 60hz
<11> ewww
<17> I mean
<17> hi!
<11> n17ikh|Lappy: is it a crt?
<14> yes, or I wouldn't care
<2> Bah.. forgot about the auto away
<18> my hdd is running crazy and things are going slow but the cpu is at like 14%
<18> what could be the issue?
<19> Caplain: dma set?
<11> n17ikh|Lappy: did you set the horiz/vert refresh rates in xorg.conf?
<14> if I get this working it'll be the first time I'll have ever seen linux and not cringed back from the screen
<14> yes
<18> platojones, what?
<10> Kahn: turn that off please
<14> and I can't run at this resolution anyways
<10> Kahn: oh, cpw got you already, nevermind :)
<14> because my monitor won't go above 60hz at it, which is why I want it at 1152x864
<19> dma...what kind of drive do you have? ide scsi sata?
<11> n17ikh|Lappy: one thing to try is ctl-alt-minus
<17> moreon: to slow
<18> platojones, well drive activity is crazy
<14> caplain: type hdparm -d /dev/hdwhatever
<18> platojones, it started when i started an emerge
<11> n17ikh|Lappy: just to see if it will at least cycle to a more acceptable resolution
<14> ah right
<14> it does nothing
<19> Caplain: are you emerging a bunch of stuff?
<11> hmm
<18> platojones, dma on
<11> n17ikh|Lappy: you want to post your xorg.conf to a pastebin, and I'll take a peek?
<18> platojones, just a few things but not enough to make it go crazy
<19> Caplain: run top and see what is at the top of the list
<6> Caplain: you may want to add the -pipe CFLAG in make.conf
<20> I've got apache 2 and I set it to use SSL but when I try to use https to connect to it I always get this error :"The connection to localhost has terminated unexpectedly. Some data may have been transferred." why is that?
<11> n17ikh|Lappy: no guarantees, just done X by hand enough times to know how much I hate it :D
<21> I know that if you wanna make your video bios do something they dont want get 855resolution
<11> arcanelinux: only if you have an intel 855 based chipset
<21> thats what i used on getting 1280x768
<11> I guess it also works with the 915
<21> oh thats right srry
<22> hey how do i add a existing user to a group?
<23> has the profile been updated to 2006.0 and how do I update to it again? :P
<24> rommel, still fighting with some errors. I'm just gonna -e werld and let it run tonight. tomorrow if they still exist, i'll be back. good eve all....
<10> kyrin1: gp***wd -a <user> <group>
<22> thank you im sorry for asking so many questions
<25> hmm sysfault is taken :@
<16> i need to update my kernel module location because when i do a modprode it tried to load from old +cokehabit
<16> location +cryos
<14> GnarlyBob: ok
<14> sorry for not paying attention, I was screwing with xorg.conf
<11> er... cokehabit?
<11> n17ikh|Lappy: no worries
<10> mobtek: ln -snf /usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/x86/2006.0/ /etc/make.profile
<23> moreon: thanks
<21> i hate dealing with x
<11> I'm about to try a 2006.0 stage1 install
<23> I never remember how to do it :)
<21> i just wish it would work or maybe i should work
<11> arcanelinux: X is a big hairy bloated mess and should be gutted
<14> GnarlyBob: http://pastebin.com/574458
<21> yep if i wasnt so addicted to eye candy i be on a console
<14> I was using the SIS driver but that also had odd behavior
<11> no disrespect meant to the x.org/freedesktop.org folks, they're doing wonders with what they have to work with
<14> ...very odd behavior
<14> let me see what res that was at
<14> o ho
<14> it's running at 1152x864
<14> like it's supposed to be, with the sis driver
<14> but... it's at 60 hz
<14> the horror
<11> 60hz is bad bad bad
<26> not on laptop
<14> I could always pop in the old ATI Rage LT Pro card sitting here
