Ah, my laptop is already 100% unstable branch...

Now it's giving me "unsupported hardware" nonsense

Hey guys,
I've been pulling my hair out for the last month trying to get Gentoo to load my wifi. Now, on the install disk it loads up eth0 and eth1, but even using the install CD's kernel (and modprobing all the modules later), I can't get it to load eth1 again.

On the install disk, eth1 is my ...

I've actually got the same problem... I formatted to Windows so [inept] family members could use the system... I went back to Gentoo a little over a month ago and didn't need wifi, so I didn't configure it. Now that I want it, it just doesn't work...

udev: 089-r2
hotplug: 20040923-r1
kernel: 2.6.16 ...

Try :
emerge hotplug coldplug dbus hal ivman hwdata autoconfig mkxf86config livecd-tools

These packages will probably solve your problem.
There are also many topics on this subject.

Some of the topics are obsolete... heres the one that should do most people
livecd-tools
Thanks guys ...

I can't find the scripts...

hotplug + genkernel aren't loading it, trying to find it now, but if anyone has links they'd be appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Ah, I had a typo...

Ignore me lol

Thanks DAppel. I thought my error was with the kernel, apparently not

(or so it appears - we'll see on next compile)

Hey guys, again I'm doing something peculiar (like that's unusual).
Basically, I built a liveCD using a genkernel (as I thought that'd be best) and rolled in most of the modules for networking drivers.
I'm wondering if there's a way to detect the drivers as needed. I spoke to a friend they said ...

Got enough USE flags? o.0

Strip the make.conf to bare minimums...[/code]

How would I go about removing the files created for crossdev for another system when I no longer need them?

PaulBredbury wrote:To change the combination of a .bin and .cue to a .iso file:

Code: Select all

emerge bchunk
bchunk file.bin file.cue file

It's not particularly reliable, it seems - perhaps because the bin/cue spec is vague?

Yeah, probably, I'll have to start pulling things to ISO from now on...

Thanks guys

How do I either
a) burn bin and cue
b) convert to .iso (thus solving a)
c) mount on loopback (thus solving all of the above...)

If you can answer B and C it'd be great

At first nothing... now I get this after a recompile of the drivers (Ffs)

I'm not even sure if the IPW2200 works atm. iwconfig shows this...

Ok, so I dropped in an "Agere" modem (which is a Lucent Winmodem I believe) and emerge'd mgetty (which does vgetty too). I installed the webmin interface for the not-so-technically minded at this place to check messages.

At the moment I can't get the program to convert to the modem's format... it ...

Problem has been resolved. Also loads reiserfs and xfs without the error now. Not sure about jfs. Just make sure the system has been updated ("emerge -e system; emerge -e system" to make sure.)

Try "rc-update add net.eth0 default"

If that doesn't work, maybe you haven't configured it?

nano -w /etc/init.d/net

Change it to something like this:

config_eth0=( "192.168.0.2 netmask 255.255.255.0" )
routes_eth0=( "default gw 192.168.0.1" )


Hopefully that will solve the problem (along with ...

It runs on Wine CVS... and I think the Sept build too... =\

"PC platform" is very inaccurate

In the case of ID, it is usually very accurate since they support all the main operating systems for the PC platform. (By having open source clients, they make support for any OS a possibility)

It's when others use it to mean "the latest windows" we have problems ...

That's where their files are (found them )

This works for me :P

The first few times you tried it do this, you'll probably get libXext, libX11 or maybe

No, I don't want to export it and make money off it or even upload it. I was wondering...

I have a PC here that will compile it. Its a 32bit system and my gaming box is the FX-55 system. So, for me to run it I need to compile on a 32bit, as 64bit isn't supported by the present make file and half a ...

Hi SteakTheMooCow,

thank you for your GUI post. I have few questions to ask:

1) is X11 or emul-linux-x86-xlibs the issue as being related to X? Any idea?

As far as I know its X11, but I re-emerged xlibs for libXext.so and libXext.a. In the last 24 hours, however, I'm switched to an unstable ...

I'm updating now, I'll let you know soon.

--previous versions have all worked.

edit: I can't install it, getting too many errors =\

Diablo II runs fine here in Wine 20050930. also ran in 20050830 and the July release...

I was actually going to suggest, if you have an unused hard drive, to mount it as /opt/ut2004 ... the game is huge, but not massive, so partition the new HDD...

A symlink would work I suppose...
