<0> Steven_6040: guide.
<0> Steven_6040: http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/desktop/x/x11/modular-x-howto.xml
<1> FieldySnuts, thanks
<2> MrS***yPants, prime... uh, shoot
<3> MrS***yPants, your well aware of what
<4> MrS***yPants: installing gentoo is usually a good test of a cpu.. if you get a fault free install, your system is relatively solid ;)
<0> and it does now have the bits about VIDEO_CARDS and what not, so it is very up to date
<5> Triffid_Hunter, I've made different experiences
<6> does anyone know how i could watch this? mms://edge.channel4.com/theitcrowd/episode1_c4web. wmv
<7> voidy: probably mplayer
<5> Triffid_Hunter, for example the 2005.1 livecd contains the buggy 2.6.12 kernel that causes HD's to crash
<7> with win32codecs
<3> its more likely that ram would go bad then the cpu
<2> Triffid_Hunter, not always. I had a friend unknowingly compile gentoo with a 100% bad stick of RAM. I'm talking 60,000 errors in memtest in under a second. The system ran 100% fine, and compiled binary-identical to another tha he had, that was fine.
<2> *that
<8> What do I want to do for the XSESSION variable in /etc/rc.conf
<5> I need something like calculating primes
<6> rsk, well thunk :D
<1> Rushfan, change it to whatever you want to use
<5> or... I don't know, some way to test my ability to compile
<9> Steven_6040: it didn't work, mkreiserfs /dev/sda4 returns the same error msg: ata1 timeout(...)
<10> hey, can somebody here help me with a little grub question?
<8> I want to use KDE
<2> MrS***yPants, Found it! ftp://mersenne.org/gimps/sprime2414.tar.gz
<8> But I dont know what version....
<2> MrS***yPants, that's the prime number finder. ^^
<11> hi, does anyone know if kde 3.5.1 is available alread?
<2> (see http://www.mersenne.org/freesoft.htm)
<1> gilles, the driver gave you a /dev/sda then?
<12> Rushfan, do you have kde already?
<13> Sorry for repeating the question: Anyone know why i810 wouldn't work? (WW) I810: No matching Device section for instance (BusID PCI:0:2:1) found. Next line: (EE) No devices detected. -- I have researched the question on the forums, and on the wiki, no luck
<5> ScytheBlade1, and that can help me identify errors in my CPU?
<8> No
<8> Nothing yet
<9> Steven_6040: what do you mean ?
<1> mubix, not supported, use vesa
<12> Rushfan, then leave it as is for now.
<8> Im still in the installation
<8> ok
<2> MrS***yPants, it has a 'benchmark' mode, which will quit out period if it does something wrong
<4> onno: looks like it.. ls -l /usr/portage/kde-base/kdelibs/
<8> Its at gnome for now...
<10> I get this error during boot: vfs: cannot open root device "sda1" or unknown-block(0,0)
<12> Rushfan, commented I guess with a # right?
<2> MrS***yPants, I've used it to check to see if a CPU could do basic math correctly.. (one that baked at 210F for three hours... it couldn't do basic math correctly at all :))
<12> trex_dk, that's from the kenrel
<13> Steven_6040: so you are saying that it's not supported by the kernel module yet?
<1> gilles, i mean you wouldnt be able to format /dev/sda4 unless you had created partitions on /dev/sda
<12> trex_dk, did you use genkernel or manually compiled?
<5> ScytheBlade1, It could be well my cpu... Its brand new...
<1> mubix, i take it you have an intel 915gm?
<11> Triffid_Hunter: yeah, but I cant find it on any mirror
<5> and I did some rather scary **** with it today
<10> roger55, i did it manually
<2> MrS***yPants, good. Warranty :)
<5> ScytheBlade1, I certianly hope so
<13> Steven_6040: good guess. where did you find this information that it wasn't supported?
<5> certainly*
<12> trex_dk, ok then you forgot to make support for your scsi or sata controller builtin in your kernel
<1> mubix, i have an intel 915gm also
<9> Steven_6040: i have created those partition, yes
<14> MrS***yPants, Do you need a stronger warning about the language?
<1> mubix, on the current stable xorg the only driver you can use is vesa
<10> hm, could that really be the problem?
<8> Roger, nope, its not commented
<5> bit`, what language?
<1> mubix, if you upgrade to xorg7 then the i810 driver is supposed to work
<12> trex_dk, because this is the kernel saying "hey I don't seen any sda device!"
<9> Steven_6040: it appears in fdisk -l
<10> kay
<12> trex_dk, people often forget ;)
<15> is gentoo-wiki down ? :(
<1> gilles, if you get a /dev/sda then the module loaded properly
<16> Sithy: aye
<13> Steven_6040: sux2bme.... and you
<10> you could very well be right, cus im using a sata drive
<14> MrS***yPants, review your comments with /lastloog and look for potty language
<1> mubix, yes :)
<8> nvm, it is commented out
<1> mubix, tbh, i havent tried xorg7 yet to test. But the vesa driver works well
<15> irCuBiC, any idea why? for how long? any mirrors? alternative resource? :]
<12> trex_dk, just sata support isn't enough, need support for the actual chipset builtin and not a module!
<16> Sithy: no, no, no, and no :(
<15> :'(
<17> where do I download an install CD. All of the CDs I have downloaded are livecds
<16> Sithy: only thing I can think of is gentoo.org and the forums...
<10> roger55, i have just pm'ed you
<8> What system logger should I use?
<16> kodak: how are things going?
<8> sysklogd?
<1> Rushfan, i like syslog-ng
<12> mattwestm, that's ok, now read the handbook
<8> k
<12> mattwestm, the install is manual.
<15> irCuBiC, aye
<12> mzbot, gentoo mattwestm gentoo handbook
<18> mattwestm: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/index.xml
<9> Steven_6040: ok, but my problem is the error msg I told you, that why I wanted to compile my own kernel and run the livecd with this new kernel
<1> gilles, i cant believe that a kernel module would load, you would be able to partition using fdisk, but that you couldnt format
<19> Is gentoo-wiki down?
<20> does anyone have an opinion for esound vs. artsd for networked sound? not much documentation on this subject
<19> Or is it just me?
<13> Steven_6040: Any chance you know a good fix for gstreamer kickin the CPU usage up to 100%.. I have been told it is very finiky
<16> maybe we should put it in the topic? ^^
<16> "Yes, Gentoo-wiki is down"
<1> mubix, never played with gstreamer, sorry :)
<19> Yes, you should put it in the topic.
<21> nope, segfaults in exactly the same place
<19> I'll bet a *lot* of people are coming in to ask if it's down.
<1> [M]erk, google gentoo portage, click the cache button next to the link to the site. Then read the story
<13> Steven_6040: gstreamer is whenever you stream music, or so I have been told. I used to could, now I can't
<9> Steven_6040: sorry, i don't understand what you're talking about
<22> Hello, If I am installing grub on my SATA drive I would type " root(sd0,0) " at the grub> prompt ?
<13> hehehe
<13> Steven is a busy man
<15> ohyea, and how come there was no GWN this week ?
<23> i'm installing gentoo, is it a bad idea to be using links as root?
<1> gilles, mkfs -t ext3 /dev/sda4
<24> i think it's a negligible risk factor
<24> who is going to hack an open http port?
<24> rather, exploit.
<3> josh__, you'll probably live
<5> ScytheBlade1, so I ran "Benchmark" but that only took a minute or so
<19> Just install quickly :p
<25> lancel00t, it's illegal here, but you can crack your own boxes
<13> lancel00t: port 80 is the most exploited port on the planet
<23> heh
<9> Steven_6040: my sata is not supported in the gentoo kernel
<1> mubix, a connection from a livecd will open an ephemeral port :)
<24> at the corporate level i am sure port80 is.
<23> i was being paranoid, downloading stuff as w/a user account, then copying w/root :|
<1> gilles, it must be. Otherwise how could you partition the disk?
<3> gilles, what is your sata controller
<23> meh, w/e.
<8> Do I want to install a DHCP client?
<9> Steven_6040: I did what you said (mkfs -t ext3 /dev/sda4) with the result I expected: Writing inode tables: ata1: error occurred, port reset
<8> If my router is DHCP?
<3> Steven_6040, i think he might have menat hois kernel
<19> I find it funny that I just put up ssh on my box two days ago, and I looked through my logs and found someone trying to log into a bajillion asian-sounding named accounts, along with accounts such as knoppix and other distro names.
<11> mubix: that would be port 139
<22> I had trouble tryign to get ext3 on my sata drive too
<4> Rushfan: if you don't install a dhcp client, you'll have to set it up manually
<13> gilles: have you rebooted since you partitioned it?
<8> k
<1> rommel, he has a sata controller that is supposed to work with sata_piix in legacy mode, or with the newer ahci module
<22> I tried xfs and haven;t ran into any problems
<3> gilles, that sounds like its supported but a bad driver
<9> rommel: my computer is a sony vaio vgn-s5m
<26> irCuBiC, just crashed again
<25> Rushfan, if you use dhcp, you need at least one dhcp client
