I was trying to compile media-libs/svgalib-1.9.25 when I noticed this error:


* Found kernel source directory:
* /usr/src/linux
* Could not find a Makefile in the kernel source directory.
* Please ensure that /usr/src/linux points to a complete set of Linux sources


I went to the ...

Thanks very much for this guide!

I have some questions though. I'm paranoid about going through some of the steps, in fear of screwing my system up, so I'm going to try to get confirmation here in regards to what to do. Here goes...

I have done emerge -av1 binutils gcc glibc, which seemed to work ...

Hello All,

I am running Gnome 2.10.2 on Gentoo 2.6.14-r5. Ever since I installed Gentoo a few months back, I've been having this seemingly random problem where my background and desktop icons will not load. When this happens, I am not able right click on my screen. A similiar problem has been ...

I emerged and unmerged emacs a ridiculous number of times because I couldn' get CC-mode to do what i wanted. And also VLC, because I just can't get that to compile. Outside of those two things however, I haven't done anything else that I can recall that would alter my system.

Also, when I enter ...

That works well enough for me. Thanks for the help!

Hello,

I'm trying to find a way to create custom keybindings but am having no such luck. Lets say I wanted <Alt>E to open emacs, how would I do this?


Thanks for the help,

Hello,

I am having the same problem, but am a bit of a noob, so I'm not sure what you mean by revert U-DEV. Can you explain what I need to do?

Thanks.
It means that you need to downgrade your version of udev to the specified version, because things are broken in the newest one for your ...

Hello,

My wireless has been working fine until a few days ago when I did a "emerge --update world". I found a post in which someone had a similiar problem (located here: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-381265.html) in which someone had said to " revert back to udev-058". The problem is, I'm a ...
