I am trying to figure out how in Gentoo I install the google hangout plugin. Is this via the overlay only? What package do I need to emerge? Thanks

I figured it out, thank you

Does anyone know if it is possible to upgrade to this version in Gentoo? I been trying to search for an overlay that might have it but cannot find it

Still does not work. Any other ideas?

Is there a specific reason you don't want to use X? I.e extremely low memory situation? Because you'll find that non-X mode is not very well supported and it probably won't be faster than using X. There's also sdlmame if you can't get advancemame to work ...

Still does not work. Any other ideas?

Rebuilt sdl like you said and install gpm and still got the same result.

Ok, so I rebuilt with the use flag of fbcon enabled and I am getting closer. I closed down my xorg-server and in the console I typed advmenu and the error changed a little

Unable to initialize the video driver.

Thanks for the reply. I already have that installed

-> emerge -pv libsdl

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild R ] media-libs/libsdl-1.2.15-r2 USE="X alsa audio joystick opengl video xinerama xv -aalib -custom-cflags -dga -directfb ...

I am so close to getting this to work. The last problem I have is when run advmenu in the console, I am getting the following:


sdl: Unable to initialize the SDL library, No available video device

I am not running X at all. Am I missing a special configuration?

Ok so I finally got my tunneling down in Gentoo, but the problem I have is when I reboot I am not getting online. I have to do the following everytime. Any ideas on how I can fix this?



tunctl -d tap0
tunctl -b
brctl addifbr0 tap0



Here is my /etc/conf.d/net


config_br0="dhcp"
bridge_br0 ...

So after getting some help in IRC, I finally figured out my problem. The first thing I had to do was change the config_bridged from being builtin to a module. I then created the bridged interfaface and a tunnel interface. Attached both of those to the bridged adapter. That is what fixed my issue

If you are trying to start apache, this is how I do it and sure if this would work for you

I am trying to bridge my second nic and having some issues getting the right IP. I ran lsmod and the vboxnetflt is loaded. I can start my vm and use the remote display. The issue I have is the second nic is not getting an ip from the dhcp server.



NIC 1: MAC: 0800271A7DD3, Attachment: NAT, Cable ...

Just installed and I installed the ati-drivers and even tried using the xorg-drivers and I am running into this issue. Now as root, I can start X and it works. But if I am not root, I cannot get it to work. My user is added to the video group. Any ideas?

Original post fixed for correct spelling. It's shine not spine

Downloaded a theme that is looking for a font called shine. Did some google searching and I cannot find it

Eterm: Error: Unable to load font "shine". Falling back on "fixed"

That worked. The link was not correct but the command worked perfectly. Thanks

In the boot parameter you have to probably add maxcpus=1 When installing Gentoo I had to do this for the boot parameter

Ok got it to work by install the -r1 version

Ok this worked Thanks

When I type the following I get an error
net-wireless/broadcom-sta-5.100.82.38-r1 is not a valid package atom

Trying to emerge broadcom-sta and getting errors. Log can be found here http://pastebin.com/GTkkxRJF Any thoughts?

Any luck with getting this to work. I am having the same issue

Thank you. Did not even think about that.

I have tried to gpg the file but that did not work. If nobody know the answer what can I do to edit my wordpress stuff in Linux? Thanks
