Thanks for explanation :). Now i understand. :) >i'm pretty sure it's in the man pages, but you can change the md5 sum >that portage thinks is correct. This change is obliterated after every sync. I know that i can. :) I was just wondering why they differ :). >You might want to set up rdate even if you do get this problem fixed. >Theres a howto in the most recent gentoo weekly news. I've already done so :). But it seems that it fixed up for now. :) Don't know what it was :). >nvidia has their own drivers out for stable kernels. I'm not sure if >there are patches for 2.5 kernels or not, as they are harder to keep up >with. >As far as i know, nforce motherboards (and assumingly nforce2) use are >usable using regular generic drivers (which are used on most >motherboards), and the nforce drivers are extensions to allow special >features to work, as well as anything past core functionality (including >builtin devices, etc.) Yes, i know about their drivers - but because they are generic, kernel writes "Unknown IDE chipset...." stuff at boot, althowgh it works very well with it :). But 2.5.66 writes : "Nvidia nforce2 chipset detected...." :). And Nvidia drivers for nforce2 (I've tried them) have only drivers for built in devices (LAN, video), but NOT for the chipset. :( >If that's your reason, be sure to fill out bug reports as well, then. >Testing isnt testing without feedback. Of course! :) I'm ready to that :). Any way great thanks for reply! ) Best regards, Dmitry. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
