 |
|
Hi
I have installed gentoo with the GLI of the 2008 live cd. I noticed that it pulled in some dependencies i don't need. E.g. there are a lot of VIDEO_CARDS flags i did not set afterwards in make.conf, but are shown up by emerge --info. I suppose that video cards are not part of desktop profile flags right?
On the other hand i have installed xorg-server during the GLI install, which is now not referenced in my /var/lib/portage/world file. How can i turn this system in a "usual" gentoo box? |

You can edit /etc/make.conf for your needs, use output of lspci to fill in the blanks
| Code: | ALSA_CARDS="___"
INPUT_DEVICES="mouse keyboard"
LCD_DEVICES="___"
LINGUAS="___"
VIDEO_CARDS="___" |
then run | Code: | emerge -uDNav world
emerge --depclean --ask
revdep-rebuild -- --ask |
This will adjust your system and clean it up. |

Thank you, the clean-up worked perfectly.
But the original world file still does not include all explicitely installed ebuilds ...
I'm not too worried about this, but i guess it could nevertheless lead into problems sometimes in the future. |
