[gentoo-user] wpa_supplicant (WPA-PSK + TKIP) + Intel 2200bg (ipw2200)

2005-08-29 Thread Greg Armer
Hi List,

I am having a few issues with the below setup, the wireless lan
connection intermittently drops and reconnects every couple seconds.
This only happens while using wireless, and only with the setup below.

I am running the latest wpa_supplicant drivers and the latest ipw2200
driver.

My Setup is as follows, Fujitsu - Siemens Amilo 7400 Laptop, Intel
2200BG wireless network card running the ipw2200 driver installed from
portage, wpa_supplicant driver running WPA-PSK TKIP. There is nothing
else out of the ordinary.

Also every so often while copying 50Meg + files over an NFS link the
entire system freezes, no mouse, no keyboard, nothing works except a
full hard power cycle.

Please let me know if i can provide any config / log or debug files.

Thanks for the assistance.

Greg

Thank for the help Naga, it has unfortunately not helped my situation.

I have attached a console log of the iwconfig command along with the
date to show how far apart I ran the command. This will hopefully help
to show what is going on.

I also forgot to mention that I am running a fresh install of Gentoo
2005.0, installed on saturday this weekend.

Thanks for any responses.

[gentoo-user] Sound with Virtual Channels

2005-08-30 Thread Greg Armer
Good day list,

Does anyone know what I can do to achieve the same effect in gentoo that
I get when using "sysctl hw.snd.pcm0.vchans=4" in FreeBSD, thereby
allowing 4 virtual channels for my dsp device, and stopping those
annoying "Device in use" errors when trying to open 2 or more sound
related programs.

I have searched the mailing lists, google and the forums and have found
nothing.

I am using Gentoo 2005.0 + esound

Thanks for any responses

Greg

[gentoo-user] Build Problem

2005-09-11 Thread Greg Armer
Greetings list,

Could anyone explain why 40% of all my emerges fail with this error
message ?

gcc-config error: Could not run/locate "i386-pc-linux-gnu-gcc"

Upon executing this file directly, it returns the exact same message:

fyre ~ # /usr/bin/i386-pc-linux-gnu-gcc
gcc-config error: Could not run/locate "i386-pc-linux-gnu-gcc"
fyre ~ #


Here is my make.conf file incase this helps:

fyre ~ # cat /etc/make.conf
CFLAGS="-O2 -march=pentium4 -fomit-frame-pointer"
CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu"
CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}"
USE="gtk gtk2 gnome -qt -kde dvd alsa cdr"


I have a feeling it has something to do with my CHOST flag, I wonder if
deleting /usr/bin/i386-pc-linux-gnu-gcc and
symlinking /usr/bin/i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc to that filename would work ?


Thanks for the assistance.
