Yay, seems to do the trick

thx

After summer vacation I tried to update my packages, but emerge seems not to be working at all:


haxor ~ # emerge --sync
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 12, in ?

Someone tested the latest ati-drivers with bios 3c22 and does it solve the flickering problem?

Try flash you BIOS. That did the trick for me..

Did you guys get the gnome keyboard shortcut voulme up/down/mute works?

Seems that gnome-shortcuts controll the PCM, and not the Front..

Know where to change this?

After upgrading to gnome 2.10 I cant find the volume applet (add to panel)

I've tried to re-emerge but no luck..

Sound works fine when playing mp3's..

Suggestions?

acpi seems to be working fine in 3c22..

When trying to emerge xterm I get the following error while compiling:


/bin/install -c -m 755 resize /var/tmp/portage/xterm-200-r1/image//usr/bin/`echo resize| sed 's/$//'|sed 's,x,x,'|sed 's/$//'`

You could check out this post for some tips..

You might also check out bios upgrade...

I switched to bios 3c22 again (and wait for a fix with dancing lines). I run vesa-drivers now..

3c17 gave me too many kernel panic (sata) and issues regarding acpi..

Not at full speed, but its on..

I read that in bios 3c11, the fan was just active when not idle..

Lets hope a new bios solves this problem, and the dancing lines

Speaking of ACPI..

Did you get the fan control to work?

I emerged cpufreqd and the cpu scales from 800 to 2000 Mhz.. But the fan is always on ..

I tried that, I installed kernel with only sound enabled, no alsa or OSS. Deleted the previous modules, emerged again. I still get the same errors.

I had the same error-messages as you, when I tried to install hda-intel soundcard. What I had to do, is compile kernel with

#
# Sound
#
CONFIG ...

*bumb*

3c22 didn't do the trick about those dancing lines but the good news is 3c17!! :D

But I still have some errors i dmesg:

mtrr: base(0xd0000000) is not aligned on a size(0x7ff0000) boundary
[fglrx:firegl_addmap] *ERROR* mtrr allocation failed (-22)

I would guess we just have to wait for a driver update on ati-drivers.....

In the meantime, did any of you acer tm8100-users get the battery indicator to work?

And what soundcard-drivers do you use?

uname -r Here is my xorg.conf and .config

During bootup i get the following errormessage:

I have the same latop (acer tm8104) and also have those "lines" that swisscheese talks about..

dmesg:

I had a lot of problems with 0.33.. try:
worsk like a charm for me.

Java runtime seems to be the problem. When i try java-config -o, it shows nothing...

The problem seems to be one-user-only-problem.. I'll do some searching...

That did the trick.. But..

Seems to be problems with my java installation then.. Tried to start netbeans4, and it crashed! So I have some searching to do.

Anyway, thanx for the tips...

Having a strange problem with mozilla firefox.

When entering some pages, it exits! This also ocures this epiphany. (on the same page)

When i run /usr/lib/MozillaFirefox/firefox-bin it works fine, and when I run firefox as root, it also works fine.

But firefox as normal user, it crash/exits.

And ...

try ndiswrapper -m
then modprobe ndiswrapper
