0.9.8?

Well .. corporati don't only need answers, they need "enterprise" OS with colored labels, printed manual, a support number where they can bitch and so on. It's not only an answer yesterday my friend. I can even say, a distro from a non profit organization will not make it to offices.

Now that is fantastic.

You know what that means? That means he used the search feature for all his problems! I LOVE YOU!

I believe Oracle supports Red Hat and SuSE. That doesn't mean you can't get it running on other platforms, though, you'll just be on your own.

Thats sounds a little harsh ;) but, i got your point. You'll be without Oracle support, but, I bet gentoo forum can more than make it up.

Get a clue ...

The solution here should work for your card too http://www.fedoraforum.org/forum/archiv ... 25172.html

Note they arent using fglrx - because it won't work for them

Read this http://gatos.sourceforge.net/

then look here http://gatos.sourceforge.net/theater_out.php

800x600 is what you'll have to change your resolution to

ati-gatos is specifically for what you're trying to do and still is being developed - atitvout isnt being worked on anymore and hasnt been for awhile

Im bumping this back to the top because emerge -a libgnomeprintui libgtkhtml glut pyopengl gtkglarea pygtk gnome-python gdesklets-core just works

Im posting a link to this thread in gdesklets gnome forum too

I had gdesklets 0.26 working fine and tried to upgrade to 0.30 with ...

I was working from the premise that wherever you'd got your real sources from, you'd configured them with ALSA, and the /usr/src/linux symlink will point to them, so /usr/src/linux/.config would include ALSA as a module, and all the other headers etc. would be there. Then you don't (shouldn't) need ...

If I'd built my own kernel from 3rd-party sources, and it included the ALSA driver - as it should, being a 2.6 kernel - I think I'd just `emerge --inject sys-kernel/gentoo-dev-sources-2.6.9-r1` in order to satisfy the alsa-driver dependency. I did something similar when I decided to build my own ...

You should *not* need to install the alsa-driver, the virtual should be satisfied by emerging a 2.6 kernel.

Have you tried the solution here?

That would have helped 10 hours ago possibly. I worked around it by using some ...

hi,

you don't have to reboot, what you can do is go into suspend mode and after waking up, you can use tvout, no reboot required, but it's not a final solution, because windows don't need even this.

Thx for you're solution with the vesa ....

looks like this is a reproduceable bug
and this is NOT PPC specific

http://bugs.gentoo.org./show_bug.cgi?id=65702

this is from my addition to the bug report

this is reproduceable - i also use 2.6.8 ck sources and have alsa built into the kernel- so alsa-driver build fails every time- I had to ...

I fixed it. Basically the alsa-driver build process looks to /usr/src/linux for evidence of what is in your kernel- first before beginning to compile it checks your .config- i have some gentoo 2.4* kernel sources so I changed the linux directory link and it began to build- but it failed when it ...

nope its not there

--- Couldn't find alsa-driver to unmerge.

>>> unmerge: No packages selected for removal.


I did manage to upgrade most other things like k3b- and now emerge world and emerge -U world is clean but I can't emerge alsa-drivers so no kdelibs and no amorok emerging

Sorry - I didnt see that emerge info request- tired-

I have more than one kernel- the one Ive been using of late is from ck sources that I got myself. But I also have a 2.6.7-gentoo-r8 kernel made from gentoo sources and it gives the exact same errors about alsa being in the kernel

here is emerge ...

Yes, it works fine here. You haven't really provided enough information to diagnose the problem though.

Can you please provide the output of emerge --info?

If you've compiled the kernel yourself without emerging a kernel that provides the ALSA headers/driver, you will also experience similar ...

This is still broken- I cannot block the alsa drivers without killing kdelibs which in turn kills my emerge -U world.

Anyone get this working??????????

I have a 2.6.8 kernel i compiled myself with ck sources with ALSA included- too bad it can tell I have ALSA in my kernel but can't go ahead and ...

To the rescue?

ati-gatos yeah or atitvout or use windoze
I have a 7500 M7 in my laptop. If you have a pci or agp version like the allinwonder radeon 7500 I'd try the ati-gatos drivers you might not have the same limitations.

atitvout works and I have used it - it only works in 800x600 mode and you ...

I haven't had the free couple of hours required to re-emerge Xorg and try the new config. It's midterm week(s) here, but I may get a chance to try that later tonight. It's now the least of my concerns, because I'm having trouble with permissions on certain files (not even sure which!), so my system ...

Did it work Tuley? I had dual head working in Xorg but XimianOpenOffice and Firefox and Nautilus and Gnome 2.6 in general became unuseable. Im back with Xfree4.3. I had Xorg working well in slackware w/ dropline gnome.

solved the startx issue, and same error. None of the suggestions here have worked :(

have you looked at your /var/log/Xorg.0.log ?
post it

Just a note-

I had to use for Dual Head Xinerama aka Big Desktop -

Option "Xinerama" "on"
Option "Clone" "off"


When I tried it without that I had a dualhead clone but it took different resolutions fine. Not sure if the "on" for Xinerama was necessary though.

Thanks alot- showed me where my ...

Cool. Thanks Dolemite, that sets me straight. Really, the curiosity about scsi started above with mentioning about increased speeds, specifically about ripping. I've had some issues with cdparanoia, but that's another issue altogether. Thanks again.

No problem most of that is documented in tips ...
