[gentoo-user] vmware moves RAM
Hi guys! I'm in trouble with vmware. Everything worked fine till i recognized that vmware moves my RAM into cache. With in one Minute there is only 4000k free available everything else moves to cache ( ~40 per sec ). That occuers when i boot the guest. This happens when i start a guest ( W2K ) . The guest boots normaly, after Login he dies! I already tried to reconfigure vmware, doesn't help. Any ideas? This happened on a Athlon XP2200 with 512MB RAM, 128 MB for the guest. Thanks for any advice! Alex -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

[gentoo-user] INN Start Problems
Hi guys! I've merged INN 2.3.3, created the database and changed the path of /var/spool/news in another directory (also changed permissions on the new dir). Also it was necessary to create a seperate /var/run/news. There was a permission problem. When i try to start INN i get the following error: * Starting innd... Starting innd. /usr/lib/news/bin/rc.news: line 1: 7436 Segmentation fault /usr/lib/news/bin/inndstart Scheduled start of /usr/lib/news/bin/innwatch. [ ok ] Can someone help me?

A modprobe via-82xx doesn´t solve all dependencies, there was sns-pcm-oss missing. Kernelversion doesn´t seem to be a necessary point. Thanks Alex -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

[gentoo-user] Soundkonfiguration via-82xx on Asus A7V8x
Hi guys! Has anyone configured a via-82xx chipset on a Asus A7V8X? I can´t get it playing. I really know howto to configure sound. What im wondering about, is that there is no device (dsp or anything else) in /dev. I´m using devfs so there must be a device, or? The only thing i recognize is a /dev/snd with some files i don´t know. The folder /dev/sound is empty and /dev/dsp isn´t existing. Can someone help me?
