[gentoo-user] OT - hardware problem: laptop shuts down
Anyone more hardware knowledgeble than me? (Can't be that hard...)I've got a 3-yo Siemens Amilo laptop that shuts down fairly often. I had to change HD in it, and it starting shutting down again - this time after formating the 80 GB disk. It's been like this for some time now, probably what got the old HD as well. Any ideas as to what to look for?Regards,Martin S

I don't know much about how gentoo wraps rsync in portage or what your
rsync file looks like, but assuming you're '--exclude'-ing app-doc, you
can just '--include=app-doc/xorg-docs'. The --{ex|in}clude[-from]

Thanks for the help in advance, István You will need to set CONFIG_IDE=n, enable SCSI cdrom support (CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SR) and enable the Intel PIIX sata driver (CONFIG_SCSI_ATA_PIIX). Isn't this deprecated? Wouldn't a better choice be to install the SATA driver ebuild? (Mainly trying to eliminate my own confusion here.) DMA should then work perfectly fine. However one side effect is that your cdrom drive will become /dev/sr0, although I guess this can be fixed with a udev rule. - -- gentux echo hfouvyyAhnbjm/dpn | perl -pe 's/(.)/chr(ord($1)-1)/ge' gentux's gpg fingerprint == 5495 0388 67FF 0B89 1239 D840 4CF0 39E2 18D3 4A9E -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.4 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFEymmeTPA54hjTSp4RAq00AKCCmRYYwKBE6fUCSRN70wHO7VMlSgCfQZsE 5D5oHh61ECHFb9CNJEgP17w= =wpX1 -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
