Thanks a lot for your reply, Mark.
So i understand you are using modular (7.0) X11?
maybe i should try that. i'll try out your config settings when i get home. cheers, and sorry for the delayed reply

*bump again*

i'm just another one having the exact same problem, on the exact same setup. newest xorg, all drivers loaded, 2.6.15, etc)

the above solution didn't really work for me. so i was kinda wondering if you could explain the "entry for dri permissions in xorg.conf"?

do i need to set that ...

ok at least the glx thingy doesn't fail anymore. (some config work to be done)

but the problem now is that i don't have hardware acceleration aka. Direct Rendering. even here i did exactly as the guide on gentoo-wiki.com told me, but still no render.

(triablo@minitux) (~) glxinfo |grep rendering ...

hi! i'm not sure where to post this, bitt i'll try here;
so i bought me one of those via epia mini tix thingies (VIA EPIA ML6000EA to be exact)

But i'm having some difficulties configuring it.
it's all about this Unichrome X11 driver: i had a hell of a time setting it up (all patching etc done ...

hmm....xiando showed me some norwegian broker site yesterday, I'm almost certaint that it was still active...
I'll keep you posted. (here/irc)

thank you, it worked perfectly with the vanilla kernel.

Do you know about any good nordic tunnel providers?

And when I have a running ipv6 tunnel, how do I do stuff via it? like, connect to IRC, etc via the tunnel

guh, nevermind. I've already started the copmile.
it's nos quite as bas as I said, It's 1-2 hours or so.

gah, it's a 233mhz machine, so compiling a new kernel from scratch would be a whole day project. but i guess it's worth it!

I'm using 2.6.11-gentoo-r6...

here's my config:
http://hoppeku.sytes.net/files/kernelconfig

that's _exactly_ what i've been trying for about 100 times.
i DID activate ipv6, i DID recompile the kernel & reboot, and i also DID NOT have the ipv6 support. (no /proc/net/if_ìnet6 yet)

not to be rude or anything, but that's why i came here.

erm, i might have miisspelled myself.
i haven't set up any tunnel broker yet. what I'm dealing with, is getting my kernel to SUPPORT the ipv6 protocol. should be the easiest thing, yet I'm still having problems.

Hi!

I have this elegant little problem setting up ipv6 support...

- I have activated everything i could find in mentioning ipv6 in Device Drivers -> Networking Support -> Networking Options.
- AND I activated the ipv6 feature in rc.conf.

Yet still i don't seem to have a working ipv6 setup.
(no ...

nah,
none of it f**king works!
I'll just start using esound again, if noone have a better alternative..?

I tried all the configs.
not even the the config specifieds for cm8738 worked properly.

No, actually that doesn't help much.

Ok, here's the deal:

-I use alsa
-I want to be able to play more than 1 stream at a time
-I have tried esound & arts, but that was too high audio latency
-My audio chipset is a CM8738 (C-media, integrated on a MSI motherboard)

so I tried to setup this dmix thingy to make support for multiple ...
