  Hi,

  modprobe 3c59x says:

  /lib/modules/2.4.20-gentoo-r7/kernel/drivers/net/3c59x.o: unresolved

  Any ideas what's gone wrong?

 Did you change from a SMP kernel to a non-SMP kernel or vice versa? In
that
 case 'make dep, make clean, ' is not enough. You need a 'make
mrproper'.
 Failing to do this results in such error messages.

No, I didn't change - I also ran 'make mrproper' in the first place.

However, it seems that I found the problem - I had screwed up somehow
with lilo (I guess I forgot to run /sbin/lilo after replacing the
kernel) and after doing

cd /usr/src/linux
cp .config ~/
make mrproper
cp ~/.config .
make menuconfig
make dep  make clean bzImage modules modules_install
cp arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot/kernel-new
[adding a new section to /etc/lilo.conf]
/sbin/lilo

everything was fine (I'm newbie when it comes to compiling a new kernel
- not sure whether the procedure described above is what's exactly
needed).

Thanks anyway,

Re: [gentoo-user] compiling new kernels

2003-10-13 Thread Claus Ladekjær Wilson


When I compile new kernels I do 
cat /proc/config  .config
in the kernel root directory (for instance linux-2.4.22)
And then the rest of the work
make dep bzImage modules modules_install
cp bzImage-location /boot
mv /boot/bzImage a proper name for instance kernel-2.4.22)
And then I use this name for an entrance in lilo.conf (no initrd required)

 i'm currently using the gentoo gaming-source, because my nforce2 board was
 having problems with gentoo-source.  i just found out that the kernel did
 not have usb printing enabled, so i'm interested in compiling a different
 kernel possibly 2.4.22 (any thoughts on this and nforce2 mboard?)  i want
 to preserve my config files for each of the kernels that i compile, just in

[gentoo-user] Newbie New Install Problems

2003-10-13 Thread A. S. Budden

Hi there,

I've just installed Gentoo on my laptop, following the install
instructions from the website.  However, I've got a few problems that
I'm not sure what to do about (this is the first time I've done anything
this complicated -- used redhat 9 before).

Firstly, in my grub.conf I have vga=791 on the end of the kernel line,
as I have in RH, but it doesn't seem to do anything at all.

Secondly, when I log on (this doesn't happen if I log on as root), I get
a long list of lines like:

modprobe: Can't locate module /dev/cdwriter
modprobe: Can't locate module * which is needed for /dev/scsi/*

etc etc etc

I can't find this in /var/log anywhere, so I can't reproduce the whole
list -- at least half of it scrolls off the top of the screen before I
would have a chance to type it all out.

I get a similar set of messages when I log out again.

Thirdly, when I boot up, as soon as the kernel starts, I get the
following:

kernel (hd0,2)/boot/bzImage root=/dev/hda6 vga=791
[Linux-bzImage, setup=0x1400, size=0x131b7d]

You passed an undefined mode number.
Press RETURN to see video modes available, SPACE to continue or wait 30 secs

Video adapter: VESA VGA
Mode:COLSxROWS:
0  0F00  80x25
..
..
6  0F07  80x60

Enter mode number of 'scan'

Finally, I get the following before the logon process.

Loading module e100
Failed to load e100

[snip]

 * Setting system clock to hardware clock [UTC]...
modprobe: Can't locate module /dev/rtc
modprobe: Can't locate module /dev/misc/rtc
modprobe: Can't locate module /dev/rtc
modprobe: Can't locate module /dev/misc/rtc
 * Configuring kernel parameters...  [ ok ]

[snip]

 * Bringing eth0 up...[ ok ]

(I have done an emerge e100).  The network works anyway.

Can anyone suggest what I might have done wrong?  I apologise for the
random order of all this.

Many thanks in advance,

Al

 Followed the Gentoo ALSA Guide; now there's no sound.
   
Did you try ALSA's OSS-emulation? That's what I have configured on my
system since some programs don't support ALSA yet. The packages
related to ALSA that are installed on my system (according to qpkg) is
the following:
media-libs/alsa-lib
media-libs/alsa-oss
media-sound/alsa-driver
   
The modules I autoload on startup are these:
snd-emu10k1
snd-pcm-oss
snd-mixer-oss
snd-seq-oss

['gnome-base/gnome-applets-2.2.2', 'gnome-base/gnome-applets-2.4.0']

Remove this package's directory from /var/db/pkg to fix this, then start

app-dicts/dictd-dicts-1.0 to not mess up any dependencies.



Any Help ? (nothing in google/gentoo.org)

Remove the directory, and gnome-applets-2.2.2, and any others that complain in 
the same way later.
If you have them installed, install them again afterwards, otherwise your

Re: [gentoo-user] Problem on booting after installation.

2003-10-13 Thread Stephen Liu

Hi Barry

# mount -t ext2 (ext3 or dos) /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/fd0, or
too many mounted file systems
I also tried
# mount /mnt/floppy with no result

You must specify the correct fs type. For a Windows floppy: mount -t vfat /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy

I found out the trick. I could not read the bookdisk disregarding
whichever command issued such as;

# mount /mnt/floppy
# mount -t vfat/ext2/ext3 /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy
etc.
I can mount and read a floppy prepared on another Linux box
# mount /mnt/floppy
or
# mount -t vfat /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy
My /etc/fstab

/dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy autonoauto, owner, kudzu
(I have this line proc /proc proc default
whether I need it)
However '/boot/grub/grub.conf' disappears, both the folder
'grub' and 'grub.conf'

# updatedb
# locate grub.conf
/usr/share/doc/grub-0.93.20030118/grub.conf.sample.gz
Could not find it ! There is nothing under /boot/

Gentoo doesn't mount /boot by default. You have to mount it (as root).

Noted with thanks

3) I could not connect broadband

My /etc/conf.d/net
iface_eth1=dhcp (only one line. only one ethernet card)
# adsl-setup (tried as ROOT and Super ROOT)
- bash: adsl-setup: command not found
# neat
- bash: neat: command not found

How did you boot it? Also, if you have only 1 nic, you device is eth0.

Problem solved. I re-do following procedures

# emerge -k xfsprogs
# rc-update add net.eth0 default
# ln -s net.eth0 net.ethx
# rc-update add net.ethx default
The denotation of my NIC is eth1. Because previously I have 2 NICs on
this box and I removed eth0

Now 'adsl-start' can connect broadband

- snip -

a) What are following lines used for

starbaby (~) $ sudo mount /dev/hdb1 /boot
starbaby (~) $ cat /boot/grub/grub.conf

sudo allows certain users to execute certain root commands (emerge app-admin/sudo,
then
man sudo) . I just mounted /boot (not mounted by default, as per above), and read
grub.conf to stdout
Why you use (hd1,0) not (hd0,0) ?

Because my /boot is on the 1st partition of my 2nd hd. Grub uses formal computer
science parlance, i.e., the first device (or whatever) is 0, the 2nd, 1, etc.

Noted with thanks

I still have following problem unsolved.

1) At time of installation
Installing additional hardware-specific ebuilds
# emerge emuk10k1
(Creative Sound Blaster Live!/Audigy support)
It took more 2 hours without completion. The screen was still moving.
Finally I rebooted the PC by pressing Ctrl+Alt+Del

2) At time of installation

emerge -k xfree

Problem and solution same as above

3) After reboot the PC
# emerge -k kde
Problem and solution same as above.

# which kde
could not find it
All download times were very short and the installation time was too long.
The screen continued moving 'writing file/fonts, deleting file/fonts, etc.'
