 Posted: Sat Sep 04, 2004 12:33 am Post subject: gentoo 64 at last! a couple of problems... ***SOLVED*** |
 |
|
I'm writing in my new and fresh Gentoo64  Thanks for all the help guys(one of the reasons I use Gentoo)
I have a couple of "little" problems:
when I boot it says that could not find root and to specify a root, so I type /dev/hde3 and all goes well... this is my fstab:
| Code: |
# NOTE: If your BOOT partition is ReiserFS, add the notail option to opts.
/dev/hde1 /boot ext2 defaults,noatime 1 2
/dev/hde3 / ext3 noatime 0 1
/dev/hde2 none swap sw 0 0
/dev/cdroms/cdrom0 /mnt/cdrom iso9660 noauto,ro 0 0
/dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto noauto 0 0
# NOTE: The next line is critical for boot!
none /proc proc defaults 0 0
# glibc 2.2 and above expects tmpfs to be mounted at /dev/shm for
# POSIX shared memory (shm_open, shm_unlink).
# (tmpfs is a dynamically expandable/shrinkable ramdisk, and will
# use almost no memory if not populated with files)
# Adding the following line to /etc/fstab should take care of this:
none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0
none /proc proc defaults 0 0
#none /proc/bus/usb usbfs defaults 0 0 |
and this is my grub.conf:
| Code: | default 0
timeout 30
#splashimage=(hd4,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz
title=Gentoo 2.6.7-r14
root (hd0,0)
kernel /kernel-2.6.7-gentoo-r14 root=/dev/ram0 init=/linuxrc ramdisk=8192 real_root /dev/hde3
initrd /initrd-2.6.7-gentoo-r14 |
My second problem is really bad, I have nvidia 6800 and emerged nvidia-glx, changed the xorg.conf but I have funny colours on my kde (and gnome) and the nvidia splash does not come up, when I rub glxgears it complains about rgb something not found... this is my xorg.conf:

I had that same problem with the colors on my 5200FX. Try getting rid of all the entries besides the 24 bit ones, and add a defaultdepth option. Here's mine:
| Code: |
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen0"
Device "Card0"
Monitor "Monitor0"
DefaultDepth 24
SubSection "Display"
Depth 24
Modes "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
EndSubSection
EndSection

You missed '=' in grub.conf
kernel /kernel-2.6.7-gentoo-r14 root=/dev/ram0 init=/linuxrc ramdisk=8192 real_root=/dev/hde3
and I think your "real_root /dev/hde3" is separated from "kernel /kernel-2.6.~~~~" line. Check it.

Make sure your /etc/conf.d/net is set right
I was having a problem with it setting both it and my fstab back to the "defualt" setting . |
