[gentoo-user] Bootsplash problem

2003-07-02 Thread Jesper Blauendahl
I've emerge'ed bootsplash but I don't get what I expected. I use the following lines in my grub.conf: > title=Gentoo Linux > root (hd0,4) > kernel (hd0,4)/boot/bzImage root=/dev/hda7 video=vesa:mtrr vga=0x31a splash=silent hdc=ide-scsi hdd=ide-scsi > initrd=/initrd-1280x1024 I expected to boot

[gentoo-user] Trrouble with ALSA

2003-06-30 Thread Jesper Blauendahl
I have a ASUS A7V8X-X motherboard with onboard sound through the VIA VT8235 southbridge so I've tried using the snd-via82xx ALSA driver to get sound. I've followed the guide on the gentoo homepage and everything seemed to go smoothly. At boot time I get a message that says that ALSA is starting

Thank you for your suggestions, but it seems like I've thrown myself into to deep waters on this one. I have lerned though that rookies like mee should stay away from the development sources :-) Jesper -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

I'm trying to switch to the development-sources (2.5.70) to get a better support for my hardware. The kernel compiles nicely. But I have SCSI Emulation, SCSI device support, SCSI CD-ROM support, and SCSI generic support set to compile as modules, and when I execute > make modules modules_instal

But...as many of us have learned the hard way, the riva framebuffer device tends to conflict with the closed-source, accelerated NVidia XFree drivers. Some get away with it, and some don't. If your computer locks in X, or trying to start it up or even close it down, try using something else besi

I have the A7V8X motherboard (with all the extras). Are you using the extended 'APIC' interrupt controller? (I'd guess not from the messages I'm seeing, or more accurately not seeing, in the cut section you gave.) The Via controller on the A7V8X supports APIC, so you may want to turn on 'Local A

[gentoo-user] refresh rate in the console

I've just emerge'ed the bootsplash ebuild and every seems to work after I compiled the kernel and did the nessesary configuration. The refresh rate is only 60Hz though and I would like to increase it to 85Hz if it's possible. I've used the example from the /usr/share/bootsplash/grub.conf to co
