<0> If he were using debian/ubuntu we'd already be done now
<0> MadMunky: What did I tell you about tkz?
<1> doh sorry, Thank you
<1> ummm urmpi kernel-source is downloading kernel-source-2.4.27-0.pre2.1mdk.i586.rpm
<1> is that going to be right?
<2> no
<2> use the 2.6 ones
<1> how do i get them ones then :)
<2> iD install the 2.6 headers first and see if it works then ...
<1> if i do urpmi kernel-headers i get package already installed
<3> you download the same kernel version on your running pc
<3> or higher
<2> well maybe you have the 2.4 ones then or you need the source
<1> i have 2.6.12-12mdk but where can i find a rpm for the headers?
<0> MadMunky: wget ftp://fr.rpmfind.net/linux/Mandrake/2006.0/i586//media/main/kernel-source-2.6-2.6.12-12mdk.i586.rpm
<0> Or rpm -Uhv ftp://fr.rpmfind.net/linux/Mandrake/2006.0/i586//media/main/kernel-source-2.6-2.6.12-12mdk.i586.rpm
<1> cheers
<3> damn wget, in debian or ubuntu I could just apt-cache to search what im looking for
<2> mandrake has no system-tool for installing like synaptic or else?
<0> john1008: urpmi
<3> yum?
<1> yeah u can get apt for mandriva
<0> It's not needed because of urpmi
<3> john1008: switch to debian while your still young :)
<1> yeah but urpmi didnt find the right sources
<3> I'd suggest ubuntu, easier for installation
<2> dude i switched from debian to gentoo years ago
<3> go back.
<2> haha no!
<0> MadMunky: There's a way to update the sources with urpmi...it's just been forever since I've used a Mandrake machine
<3> whats in Mandrake?
<1> arrr
<3> I mean Mandriva
<3> next time they'll change their name again
<0> Pretty decent hardware detection
<1> when i install the new sources it says i already have 2.6-2.6.12-18mdk which is newer
<1> how do i force them to install?
<0> MadMunky: cd /usr/src
<3> thats bull****, ubuntu cannot?
<3> dapper drake can!
<0> MadMunky: tar -jxvf kernel*
<1> will that work with a rpm?
<0> MadMunky: You're just unpacking the kernel source
<3> unless you have a very special, rare, unsupported hardware
<0> MadMunky: You should have a tar.bz2 file in /usr/src
<0> ngine: What are you talking about?
<1> nope
<1> i have loads of folders
<0> MadMunky: "su -" and then "updatedb" and then "locate source"
<0> MadMunky: Might be in /usr/src/RPM/ or something like that
<1> locate source found loads
<0> MadMunky: "locate source | grep kernel"
<1> I have a /usr/src/linux-2.6.12-18mdk/
<0> Oh
<0> MadMunky: What's your exact kernel?
<0> uname -r
<1> uname reports 2.6.12-12mdk
<0> Did you download that rpm?
<0> For the 12-12 kernel source?
<1> yeah but wouldnt let me run it as i had 12-18
<0> MadMunky: Go to the directory that's in
<1> yep
<0> rpm -Uhv --force kernel-source*
<1> done, now try run the ati package again?
<0> Yep
<1> Fingures crossed!
<1> doh says the rpm is already installed
<1> am removing using rpmdrake
<1> ewww.... excited :)
<1> Time to reboot
<0> Shouldn't need to reboot
<1> oh doh
<2> why reboot exit x edit xorg.conf and start x again
<0> Need to install the fglrx kernel source module, modprobe fglrx, and then rerun X
<0> It may have already installed the fglrx module
<1> yay it works
<1> thanks ppl
<0> No problem
<1> Time for xgl now ;)
<0> You'll need to rerun the ati package and rebuild the modules every time you upgrade a kernel
<1> oh thanks
<0> Oh, and I'd recommend building Xgl from CVS source
<1> theres some rpms for mandriva, is it hard to build from source?
<0> MadMunky: Try the rpms...if they don't work, install from source
<0> It's not that hard
<1> k, tkz
<0> The word, for the last damn time, is "thanks"
<4> Where can i find /usr/lib/libXrender.la in ubuntu (needed for gaim beta)
<0> I take the time to type out words completely and to help you. The least you could do is do the same
<4> anyways, "tnx" is more logical than "tkz"
<0> They are both retarded
<0> aavar: apt-get install libxrender-dev
<1> sorry bad habbit
<4> reality, It's allready installed... that file is not in that package in breezy
<4> I'll try a apt-get build-dep.
<1> How do i change it so mandriva loads startxgl on boot?
<4> okay, can someone tell me how I can get /usr/lib/libXrender.la on ubuntu breezy?
<3> missing?
<3> have you tried ebay?
<4> ngine, are you asking me?
<4> It's not in the package...
<3> just kidding
<3> are you still using breezy?
<3> most of us are running Dapper now
<3> try Dapper Drake, im happy
<4> ngine, It's not working with my wlan-card.
<4> Demonen, closed source?
<3> aavar: what card?
<3> i mean chipset
<4> ngine, it's a 3com-card. I don't remember the chipset. And it's probably posible to get it working, but I don't feel like fixing it when breezy is working fine.
<3> you should try Dapper, more features for desktop
<3> what does dmesg says when card is inserted
<3> ?
<3> pci?
<3> pcmcia?
<5> i heard pcmcia is Personal Computer Memory Card International ***ociation. If you have a laptop and wish to know more about it, go to http://pcmcia-cs.sourceforge.net
<3> usb?
<4> I don't feel like taking it out :)
<4> Pcmcia
<3> alright, wrong person
<4> But anyways... I think breezy is working great. The only "problem" I have had it that that file is missing.
<4> ngine, you don't feel like selding it to me?
<3> hehe
<3> from what program was that?
<4> /usr/lib/libXrender.la from libxrender-dev
<4> john1008, found a solution for me :)
<4> Hopefully gaim will compile...
<1> Thanks Reality for all the help, im off to play :)
<4> john1008, Worked great. Thanx!
