My $million advice. Go to www..gnu.org, and just download the Grub
source and compile it. Just make a note somewhere on your copy of the
Gentoo manual (you did print it out didn't you? haha) that grub is
not in the emerge system.
Problem solved. Once you know where all of grub resides (locate

Hi all,
I need some help migrating from the r6 to the r9 kernel. I copied my .config
file into the r9 directory and tried to make menuconfig, but I just get the
error message saying something to the effect that "}." is missing. What am I
missing?
Many Thanks,
Rob

Root or su can start OO easily with ooffice command. But it doesn't
work as a user. I keeps sending the error message that the "setup is
aborted". Who knows what this means, but its irritating, having to go
back in to user directory and chowning and chgrpin files.

Thank you!!!
My rc.conf file contained no "CLOCK="" line, so I missed it. This seems
like it was overlooked or a bug in the install process. Now it appears
that my Gentoo OS is keeping time. However, it is yet to be seen
whether the BIOS keeps its time since it appeared to also be a problem.
I looked at "adjtime". I alredy have 0.0 as the first entry, so that
mailing list thread does not apply to me.
Thanks,
Rob.

I am not certain if this is a Gentoo problem, a bios problem, a mobo
problem, or what. I just want to know if anyone else has seen it or
has it now.
I can't keep the clock on the right time. This Dell 8600 Laptop has a
brand new mobo in it. So it seems crazy that the battery would be dead

Hi all,
Just a reminder that HOWTO Encrypt Your Home Directory using CFS is up
on the Gentoo Wiki now. I need beta testers and constructive
criticism. Here are the main problems so far:
1. With my procedure I get some warnings upon startup, but they seem
not to matter.
2. I am still having t
Many thanks for the help with OpenOffice. I now have it working. Its a
great program. Wow, MS Word files and .pdf. I haven't even scratched
the surface of it all yet. The OpenOffice people have sure done a great
job.
The Genoo mailing lists are great. They are on par with the FreeBSD and

Hi,
For using CDRW, etc I only know about how to use ide-scsi by passing to
the kernel during boot. But I get a warning during boot that it is
deprecated, and instead I should be using ide-cd and give dev=/dev/hdX
as device. So I tried putting in hdc=ide-cd and I got an error message
saying it
Hi all,
I compiled OpenOffice. It ran all day and successfully completed the

install it? What have I missed?

OK, I think I have an accessable draft copy of the doc at
www.gentoo-wiki.com/User:Roblytle.
It seems to be available anonymously, and editable. I am no wiki expert
so its likely something is screwed up. I'd like it to end up in the
HOWTO Security and Anonymity category, but I have no idea how

Hi all,
If there is sufficient interest, I can write up detailed instructions
for setting up an encrypted home directory. Unlike Windoze, since all
personal information is contained wholly in the home directory in *nix,
it is very advantagious to encrypt it. I can show how to migrate your
