It has been a while on this topic, but I just ran into this error on some very old gentoo installs. (no overlays in use)

What fixed the problem for me was creating the repo_name file:

Dear forum,

I just did an "emerge samba" on one of my machines while watching our LDAP servers logfile.

After starting the emerge, the emerging machine queried our LDAP server, if it had any user account data with uid=vostorga, uid=simo or uid=jelmer:

Hey,

I am having the same problem, have you found solution meanwhile?

Greetings,

Hey there,

I still got one issue regarding my new X61 tablet.

Everything works perfect, Wacom Serial Stylus is initialized via setserial as a init script:

tablet sege # cat /etc/init.d/mysetserials
#!/bin/sh

/bin/setserial /dev/ttyS0 port 0x0200 irq 5 autoconfig
tablet sege #


Xorg.conf is ...

Not using a theme doesn't change anything. GDM still crashes when clicking on the user.

And yes, GDM is compiled with the USE-flag debug turned on !

Hey there,

I want to configure my tablet pc in a way, so that I won't need the keyboard for booting up.
That includes using the gdm face browser and a fingerprint reader.

The fingerprint reader works perfect. I can login by typing in my user name and scanning my fingerprint.
(I know about the ...

Of course not. Here you go:

Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "X.org Configured"
Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0
InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer"
InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
InputDevice "cursor" "SendCoreEvents"
InputDevice "stylus" "SendCoreEvents"
InputDevice "eraser" "SendCoreEvents ...

I got it fixed now after endless trial and error.

The solution for me was: unmerging linuxwacom and downloading the latest sources (0.8.0-1) from http://linuxwacom.sourceforge.net/ and installing them by hand.

Now the stylus is working and i can move the cursor and klick and such things...

Hey there,

I got a little problem setting up my new IBM Thinkpad X61 TABLET.

Everything runs fine. The only problem is the Wacom stylus.

I have set up a serial port for the wacom device via init script
#!/bin/sh

/bin/setserial /dev/ttyS0 port 0x0200 irq 5 autoconfig


wacdump /dev/ttyS0 ...

Okay, now I understand.
I tried chowning the directory to root:root .
But that doesnt help. It doesnt show up. Like before.

Know I made a new directory and mounted my boot partition there.
I can access this directory without problems via ftp.

Thats weird !

I dont think thats the problem.

I think you read the log above the wrong way.
With sshfs mounted to hacktor, the directory is owned by ftp:ftp
This is the time, when it doesnt show up.

After unmounting its owned by root and DOES show up.

I dont know what wrong.

Hey there,
I just set up a vsftpd on my server using virtual users.
I figured out that the standard ftp root is /home/ftp. I can upload and download to there via gftp.

Now if I ssh to this server (as root on the server), create a new directory in /home/ftp, chown this new directory to ftp:ftp and ...

Thank you,
works, too, on my Thinkpad T30

I'm happy now

Yeah that's true. As you said, I have non-routable IP-Addresse on the internal.
You know the default 192.168.0.XYZ stuff

The external is a DSL PPP connection, which just gives me 1 IP-Address like 82.149.42.XYZ
Its a 16mbit down 1mbit up connection for 30 Euros a month. Just the same as every ...

Hey guys,

I was just wondering if something like this works:

I got a Internet Router running Gentoo, routing the Internet (eth0) for two different internal networks (eth1, eth2).
My Internet connection is DSL, which means dynamic IP and 24h disconnect.
For now I got set up a domain with zoneedit ...

as i just ran into the same error here is my solution:

i like my minimal laptop environment and run xfce with USEflag "minimal" turned on. You have got that, too !

the solution for me was to do an
USE="-minimal" emerge -av iproute2

for future use you may want to put these settings into your ...

thanks mate,
that really did the job.
i knew it was just some small command to fix it ....

hi there,

i just installed xfce4-4.4.0 and slim. it works perfectly when i log in as root, but when i log in as my regular user, i cant do a right click on the desktop -> i wont get into the menu. The next thing is that i dont have a real background image, it keeps showing slim's image.

i am using beryl 0.14 and in when setting rendering path to copy some effects (cube, wobbly) do work !

2. after that i installed beryl following the wiki article the portage version. (no svn oder overlay)

i started beryl-manager and when i switch to beryl, my windows ...

Well now boys and girls,

Thanks for this infos about the opensound.com driver. Worked like a charm for me... I just reinstalled gentoo on my comp and also reinstalled that oss driver. So what know ? The driver is licensed till YESTERDAY !

This OSS version expired: 12/2006 ...

hth others for the future

hey out there,

i was wondering about the networking tool hamachi for linux today. luckily i found it for linux and in portage... also a gtk gui version.
emerging hamachi works just fine but when i try to emerge ghamachi i get:
