Posted: Tue Sep 18, 2012 9:10 pm Post subject: [SOLVED]: What package to install |
|
|
Hi, ALL,
I barely remember that in order to answer: "What package the program belongs?" I need to issue:
equery belongs
So, I tried:
equery belongs fglrx
but received
equery: command not found
Help!
Thank you.

equery is in app-portage/gentoolkit
But this checks only stuff already installed.
You could do emerge --search if that's what you're looking for? _________________ Core-i7-2700K@4.1GHz/8GB RAM/180GB SSD/Intel HD3000 graphics
What the heck am I advocating? |

Hi,
Thank you for the reply.
What I'm looking for is "fglrx": program to check 3D rendering of OpenGL. |

"equery belongs" only reports what package an existing file on your system belongs to. For instance: | Code: | ~ # equery belongs /usr/bin/ls
* Searching for /usr/bin/ls ...
sys-apps/coreutils-8.14 (/bin/ls) | Finding something that isn't installed is harder. Sometimes it takes a lot of looking or just someone that knows. I think I know what you're looking for and that's glxgears. It's part of x11-apps/mesa-progs.

Hi, John,
According to this page topic 4.4, it is called "glxinfo"
Is it the one?
Thank you. |

| Code: | ~ # equery belongs `which glxinfo`
* Searching for /usr/bin/glxinfo ...
x11-apps/mesa-progs-8.0.1 (/usr/bin/glxinfo) | Why, yes.

Thank you, John.
3D works on my system without any tweaking.  |
