Gentoo Forums

10.1 fixed my problems that I was having. I hoped there was a graphical install to go along with this. I love Gentoo, used it for 4 straight years but switched to ubuntu just because I didn't have the time to fix things when I did something stupid. Now I don't use Gentoo simply because I don't have ...

This might be kind of silly, but instead of downloading an entirely new DVD couldn't a merge folder be put online? Just mount the old .iso, drag the files in that change, and then burn it. I'm not sure if this is possible or not or how this would work, I've never seen a distro do this, but are there ...

Well, they are, but they used the beagleboard as the reference for their design. As far as I can tell they use all the same hardware, so whatever works for beagleboard will work for the Pandora.

I was wondering if anyone has gotten Gentoo on the beagleboard up and running.

I'm not sure how easy they are to get a hold of, but the Open Pandora project uses the beagleboard with a gpu capable of opengl. Here are the specs for those not wanting to click on the link:

Hey, I can't find handbrake in portage. I need to basically run some video through it, an mp4, so my GP2X can view it, basically an avi. I did and emerge -s for handbrake and got nothing. I even went through /usr/portage and it wasn't there. Is there a reason it's not in there?

Hey, if it isn't ...

Is there a guide somewhere that explains how FCEUltra works? It doesn't have a man page. It says it supports save states and game genie but I can't find anywhere that says how.

Thanx,

Cool, thanx, I did a search but couldn't find anything.

I'm trying to put a fat 32 partition on a SD card but get this error:

-su: mkdosfs: command not found

Is this because I have to be logged in as root just not 'sued in' or do I need to emerge something to be able to make dos partitions? I have Gentoo installed just trying to make a bootable SD card ...

Why do you think new hardware made a difference? Do you think it's because your new hardware was USB 2.0? That sucks that it doesn't work perfectly on Linux anymore. Although I couldn't find any real reviews on the SmartJoy PLUS the comments on a few stores were promising. Oh well, time will tell, I ...

Hmm, I ended up getting the SmartJoy PLUS . In comments on lik-sang.com and a few other places Linux users said that it worked perfectly, so I decided to get 2 of them. I wanted to get one that had 2 controller ports but it looks like they don't work under Linux or OSX, and it wouldn't be too much ...

I was wondering if anyone has tried one of those ps/ps2 controller to usb converters. I don't like buying controllers for my computer because they aren't that well made in my experience, but I love the ps/ps2 controllers. I want to find an adapter that has 2 control ports that will work in Linux and ...

Wow, 7.8 is a big screen, I was thinking more of a smaller handheld. 3.5 even seems a little big to me, I originally tried to look for one that's about the size of a GBA or SP, 3", but this one has a controller board if for some reason I couldn't get the gumstix to run it. I do like ...

Eh, I guess if I do it and show people, maybe others will follow.

Thanx,

Ok, I got the book Hacking Video Game Consoles by Benjamin Heckendorn , the book that shows you how to turn old NES's and PSone's into portables, and thought "why not make a case like he does (CNC cutting machine) to house a gumstick/expansions, LCD, and whatever means of d-pad and make a handheld ...

I get one of the same errors, I'm trying to use konverter to turn some mpegs into divx, I get this same line in it:

Can't open '/home/gamer/.mplayer/codecs.conf': No such file or directory

Your error has your user in it, like gamer is mine and your's is juha:

Can't open '/home/juha/.mplayer ...

I voted 'Iris on Mirror', the other's looked too corporate. I liked them all though, I really liked the infinity symbol on 'Aaron Shi'. I don't know, I'm kinda getting sick of purple, I have ADD though and switch everything in my life around over and over again, so I need to take that into account ...

snesexpress needs me to set a path to snes9x, where is it at? I set the path to /usr/games/bin/snes9x but snes9express still can't find it.

Thanx,

Nice, yeah, a desktop replacement notebook is ok if you have a nice desktop, if not a notebook can never replace a desktop, even though some call it a desktop replacement . I am needing a desktop now more than anything, I have a little ibook that will allow me to type/do internet stuff on the go ...

I have a HP ZD7000 series notebook, it has:

17" 1440x900(the older screen, but I can't imagine a better picture)
3.4 P4 with HT
1 GB ram
128MB NVIDIA(R) GeForce(TM) FX Go5 6 00(a little slower I'm guessing)
80 GB HD, 5400 RPM
4X DVD+RW

And it can't play DOOM3! Well, it does really good for a ...

nope, can't get it working, man, i have to wait for the linux stuff to come out. I really really hope it doesn't take long. I guess I'm better off than the OS X people, I shouldn't complain.

Thanx,
Stan

I have it, I have doom3, I'm going to try cedega.

Thanx,
Stan

Make sure cedega is set to report winxp, this makes a ton of the newer games work so i hear, mine is set by default it seems, but cvs deosn't do that. I have the pay version, it only costs 5 bucks, get a one month subscriptoin, well, let me try it first before you go buying it. But if it works for ...

Oh man, did you try the new cedgega, what hardware are you running it on? I have a p4 3.2 with a fx5600go in it(notebook) and a gig of ram. Did cedega just not install it or when you ran it did it just get so far? I guess I'll know soon enough, but maybe it will work for me, I hope.

Thanx,
Stan

I just called, It will be in between 12 or 1, so in 90 to 150 min I'll have it. I hope within that time the linux version is magically put out or cedega (looked up the name) works with it.

Crossing fingers.

Thanx,
Stan

Picking it up in 30 min, hope it runs in cadagy, calgary, capagy or whatever (winex). No windows, gave it to my sister, I might be stuck waiting if winex doesn't work. I couldn't sleep all night, I............must...............play...............doom....................3. I thought the store was ...
